      You may not be familiar with the podcast circuit. This whole project started as an audio only podcast meant to be listened to via an MP3 player. A lot of people listen to history podcasts (or any podcast) while they are driving, working out, road tripping etc. You post your podcast on iTunes and people rate you and leave comments which helps your podcast get recognized and grow. I just really also loved the video aspect of things and started adding UA-cam videos. But, I have an entire series on Attila the Hun which is not on UA-cam if you want to check that out.

    Ah, all great things must come to an end eventually. One would only wonder what would have happened if the caliphate was more stable or if the sons of al manzor treated the caliph as a symbolic figure to keep the masses at bay, just like the tokugawa shogunate did with the emperor. There would be no need for the almoravids or the almohades (especially these guys) to intervene and eventually weaken al andalus. The entire world would look completely different.

    • @FlashPointHx
      @FlashPointHx  7 років тому +10

      It just goes to show that no matter how great you are, if you don't have a reasonable succession you don't have anything. Rome got lucky with several decent emperors - but the system was designed to fail. You can be a great conquer like Napoleon, Attila, or Genghis Khan, but your legacy can be wiped out in a generation or two. I think Al Andalus would have lasted longer had the sons of Almazor not been so foolish, but in lieu of the Crusades and a consolidating Christian Europe - time was going to run out at some point. I'll be starting the research for the next episode very soon.

      The Umayyad were the de facto ruler's in Arab history in Al Andalus with there fall ended the Arab era
      Almoravids and almohades were purely Berber
      And almohades betrayed the last Arab dynasty in Seville the abbadid who ironically called them for help and there greed brought the destruction of the civilization the Umayyad brought from the east
      U can see Umayyad impact lasted more than any other Muslim dynasty in Iberia
      Arab ruler's weren't perfect but it was heaven compared to others who succeeded them Turks & Berber who were savage's
      Ottoman's were the only ruling family of Turkic origin who were merely successful

    Man that's so sad there is no Rahman the fourth I'd write some of abu al baqa-rundi poem I hope u read it all bro .
    " Everything declines after reaching perfection, therefore let no man be fooled by the sweetness of a pleasant life.
    These are decrees that are inconstant: he whom a single moment has made happy, has been harmed by many other moments;
    Therefore ask Valencia what is the state of Murcia; and where is Jativa, and where is Jaen?
    Where is Cordoba, the home of the sciences, and many a scholar whose rank was once lofty in it?
    Where is Seville and the pleasures it contained, as well as its sweet river overflowing and brimming full " .
    And Abu al-Baqa al-Rundi was a contemporary Andalusian poet from the city of Ronda in south Iberia.
    In his poem, “The Fall of Seville”, he lamented the loss of a once great city, and further talked about the fall of Spain .

  • @SupremelyFly
    @SupremelyFly 5 років тому +2

    This is truly so sad. There are so many "what ifs". You can spend countless hours thinking about what could have gone differently. But let's look at it this way, the emirate was not supposed to survive the chaos that followed Abdul Rahman II, and Abdul Rahaman III gave it extended life. There's a saying I learned from religion, "Life is an extended gift, when you die you can only be grateful that you lived as long as you did." I think that saying fits into this story perfectly.

    • @FlashPointHx
      @FlashPointHx  5 років тому +1

      That is a beautiful saying! I always like to mention that “civilization is like a biological organism where extinction is the rule, and survival is the exception.” I’m amazed at how some rulers have that ability to extended a civilizations life, whereas others only hurry it along to its demise. I couldn’t make out by your first sentence whether you meant that the video was good or bad. Or rather, that you were saying that it was filled with sadness.

    • @FlashPointHx
      @FlashPointHx  7 років тому +5

      I’m a firm believer that civilization has similarities to biology, where extinction is the rule and survival is the exception. It’s very difficult for a government to protect itself from the aspirations of those determined to gain power. It’s a double edged sword - you need to be ambitious to want to rule, and yet power needs to be held in check for the benefit of the majority. Any imbalance can cause devestation to the state.

    Do you think if Almanzor didn't come to power, the caliphate of cordoba would have lasted longer? Sure, it might not have quickly sacked Leon and northern christian kingdoms quickly but it would have been more stable in the long run surely?

    • @FlashPointHx
      @FlashPointHx  5 років тому +2

      That’s an excellent question. I think that just like with any type of monarchy or empire where you have a single person in charge, it is operator dependent. The size of the state determines how much adversity It can take. In the case of the Caliphate, It crashed spectacularly. Which meant that it was more fragile then something like the Roman empire. It would only be a matter of time before you ended up with somebody that was awful. I personally would not have given it more than 100 years or so,

    • @AdamNoizer
      @AdamNoizer 5 років тому +1

      Flash Point History Thank you for your response. Weren’t empires such as the Roman and ottoman empires monarchies with a single person as the head of state? Why did they last hundreds of more years? Furthermore, the northern Christian kingdoms were also monarchies if I’m not mistaken, as was many other european states aside from Córdoba, many of which lasted very long including the Spanish empire itself later on.
      Given this, what was it particularly about Cordoban emirate/caliphate that you think made it particularly fragile for collapse?

    • @FlashPointHx
      @FlashPointHx  5 років тому +3

      A whole PhD thesis could be written around your first question. I would have to say that in general the larger the state the more room but it has to make errors. Take for example Rome during the Punic wars. Rome lost one battle after the next To Hannibal. Any other state would have collapsed. However, she had man power reserve to persist. The Ottomans also dealt with a lot of adversity but were able to take punches and then give them back. You are right about the Christian kingdoms. They were all monarchies - but they too were racked with problems and would grow and shrink depending on the ruler in charge. I’m producing an episode now on Alphonso X - known as the Wise King - during his reign he nearly destroyed the powerful state of Castile three times. But managed to keep it together by the skin of his teeth. Cordoba had multiple ethnicities, vying states and nobility. A strong king / caliph could keep it together but a weak one could not. In many ways Cordoba reminded me of the Balkans in the 19th and 20th centuries. They were a powder keg waiting to explode. And we’ve seen what happened to the AustroHungarian Empire after WW1 as a result.

    very nice series .....the fall of al andalos is a complicated issue, and i think it has a lot to do with the general decline of arab culture everywhere around the same time .the fall of al andalos, the crusades, and the mongol invasion are probably the consequences , and not the causes of that decline. i could also point out earlier signs, like the disintegration of the abbasid caliphate ,and the saljuk ascent.
    the causes are extremely debatable, with religion the prime suspect
    another andalusian story illustrates it, the life of ibn rushd, also known as averroes

      I noticed you mentioned that around the year 1000 the usual end-of-the-worlders were out in force. It's fun watching the current generation of Malthusians dribbling about global warming. Historians notice these types of things so maybe you have too.
      History is fun for me but science is my thing so when I realised that I'd fallen for the climate apocalypse con I had to laugh at myself. I guess the truth is that we can all be fooled with a pea and a couple of walnut shells LOL
      Have a sweet Christmas mate.

    Saqaleba : The name Arabs used for the Slavs at that time, so I guess you should say Berber and Slavs,
    btw:The name for Russia in Arabic is Al-Ruoss which became later Russia very close from Kievan Rus', but in Arabic it means those who ''paddle'' their canoe as the first contact with the Slavic tribes was made in center Asia when they came for raiding/trading in small canoes in the rivers.
    rass = who paddle, single, male
    rossia = those who paddle (verb in present tense - plural ) the final 'a' is for pertinence

    If the Abbasids didn’t overthrow Ummayyad they would’ve been able to conquer France and Italy then all the way into Germany the Umayyad Abbasid Muslim civil war made the army disperse into regional states Umayyad and Ottomans were only centralized strict Caliphates designed for expansion

      Vous avez un très bonne religion , qui donne amour et paix dans les pays chrétiens conquis avec des fleurs et du miel . Heureusement que L'Hypocresie ne tue pas si non vous seriez des millions de musulmans a mourir. Vous êtes là peste de l'humanité
      Votre secte cet propagé par les guerres dans les terres Chrétiennes. Vous avez tué au nom de Allah
      Pas au nom de DIEU. DIEU n'aime pas les voleurs .
      Votre Allah= 😈. DIEU =❤️
