The Statue in bravos is a very old grece statue
Fingal Svensson The Colossus of Rhodes
MrElm0O yup
This channel deserves way more attention.
4:14 I would say that Unsullied more resemble Janissaries ( elite corps of slaves made up of kidnapped young Christian boys who were forcefully converted to Islam), than Spartans who were not kidnapped as young boys. . . anyway good video :)
Mamlukes fit the description, not Janissaries as the latter were not slaves and had huge political power.
Plus Janissaries were not kidnapped but "given" and had an extremly confortable life.
Anyway good remark
Hey all! Thanks for watching! Not the usual video I know but I've had a script for this for like a year and I love this show. Hope you all enjoyed it and stay tuned for more video :)
I think the Targaryen have a lot in common with the Achaemenid dynasty.
Achaemenids used dragon signs just like the Targaryen.
Also incest was very common between the Achaemenid just like the Targaryen. For example Cambyses II married his two sisters.
The Achaemenid were Aryans and based on some legends, the Aryans come from Atlantis which is where Valeria is based on. And the Targaryen also come from Valeria.
The Achaemenid could conquere most of the great civilizations around them except Greece, just like how the Targaryen conquered all kingdoms of Westeros except Dorne. And when the Targaryen fall was close, it was Dorne that sided with the Targaryen, just like how many Greeks sided with the Achaemenid when they were getting defeated by Alexander the great.
Also Cyrus the great, the first Achaemenid king, much like Daenerys Targaryen, used to conquere new lands and free their slaves. However he didn't turn mad at the end like Daenerys.
And by the way, I think Braavos is based on Rhodes.
Propably have a lot in common with the Greek Dynasty of Komnenos.
Their dragons was their ships with Greek Fire aka Wild Fire.
Ancient Valyria at the map looks like Peloponnisos or Macedonia and of course the biggest civilization of all times is Greek as the History .
And by the way friend,Alexander The Great was Greek of course and I believe you know that like the hole World knows that!
Braavos is based on Rhodes Island indeed.(statue of Colossos at the entry of the Port).But their worship was for God Sun and not for Death.
Alexander was greek himself too tho
@@TheFightHubb half Greek actually
@@mohjmz2003 nope fully greek, macedonia at the time was greek its not at all the same people as ‘north macedonia’ we know today
That molten silver/gold or hot oil thing was very popular in medieval Poland.....
Never watched this show might check it out now.
That was really interesting nice video
Yeah, GOT Does include the elements of War of the Roses 🌹 for sure. But somewhere Merlin’s gotta fit right?!
KHAN and KHAL i mean.....
You can compare the knights watch to the knights Templar.
i swear the Byzantines are Romans not Greeks or at least that't what they like to call themselves.
They were both in a way
The Death of Viserys in a molten gold could also be likened to Roman Emperor Valerian when captured by Sassanid King Shapur I
a Damascus steel blade 100% cannot cut through a rifle barrel, steel cannot cut through steel, that's not how metals work. It's like saying a katana can cut through a longsword, a steel blade cannot cut through another steel blade.
Why don't you mention the Targaryan have the appearance of the Anglo Saxon. Fair hair and blue eyes.
They have violet eyes not blue eyes.
i thought cersei was anne boleyn
ayy lmao.
Who tf put the twins in the vale on the map
Why don't you make a video about Joan of Arc? To this day I STILL don't know if it was the Church in England or France who burned her. Of course I know how she was used by France but NOT whether France or England actually gave the false evidence against her. Personally I think she is a perfect example of what being a religious fanatic gets you.
Moon Dancer, there was no Church of England at the time. It was a French Bishop who recognized the Treaty of Troy, and thus worked for the legitimate King of France, Henry of England. He claimed jurisdiction based upon being Bishop of the diocese she was captured in, Champagne.
The Church of England didn’t exist at the time, both sides were Catholic.
the damascus steel bit was dead wrong
Tyriol nah
True , it is way misleading
Says Black dinner...shows Glencoe massacre
Says Glencoe massacre...shows Black Dinner
Great video otherwise
Game of Thrones brutality is most likely inspired by Eastern European history
