@Person Hello Korea had lot of wars with china and once even attacked chinese in goguryeo era. Korean kingdoms defeated chinese troops many times when they try to invade korean kingdom. For example, search the battle of salsu.
matherS Toddd It's the funniest joke i have heard. Koguryo is not a dynasty founded by Koreans, and you have been a vassal state of China for hundreds of years. Without ancient China, maybe The land of Korea is Japanese.
Corrections - That's a map of modern Thailand, not Cambodia 8:04. - The Mayan Pre-Classic period can be dated all the way back to 2,000 BC or 4,000 years ago. There are also other older civilizations in the Americas like the Olmecs... Civilization in the Americas are quite old.
Without history we won't remember how we discovered facts and amazing things we have achieve now and we also need the future to built on as a foundation of a new age.
From the juvenile mistakes of identifying Thailand as Cambodia, marking out Greece as the origin of Christianity and leaving out Mongolia as an Eastern Civilization, to the less than expert use of modern boundaries to represent what the kingdoms and empires were back then, and finally to this ridiculously long introduction to an even more ridiculous 40+ episodes on Eastern Civilization, this series already has a lot of problems.
In their defense, they said the Mediterranean, not Greece. Nor did they say that Greece/the Mediterranean was where Christianity originated. All of your other critiques are spot on though.
3:25 "It was the First Emperor order the walls to be constructed" Not quite. Walls were all ready there, built by other smaller kingdoms. When he conquered all of the kingdoms, he just joined the walls up.
I was born and China back in 1929 at the age of ten I boarded a ship known as President Coolidge to San Francisco to be with my father ten at age 21 I was drafted into the army to fight in Korea was decorated with many medals including a Ambassador For Peace medal.
We need to start teaching our own histories and not depend on foreigners to teach it to us. No offense to the scholar who is teaching here but more so to us Asians who really need to get our interest with our histories together.
I'm on the look out for such videos! Let me know if you find any. Smarthistory's articles about the kingdoms of the ancient Korean peninsula are written by folks at the National Museum of Korea and I noted a difference in the way some of the artworks are discussed (compared to the standard arguments in textbooks of the west). I think art history is getting better, but we have to work hard to dig ourselves out of eurocentric/colonial mindset that was standard when the discipline was developing.
We have many great history teachers in Asia. But you should know that history is always subjective, let alone taught by enlishing speaking teachers who can't read the primary sources. As a suggestion, I would suggest relying more on primary written records of Chinese history books, which not only wrote about China but also wrote about surrounding countries before they begin their own records.

9,000 years ago Krishna preached the Sanatan religion to the Yadav tribe of Gujarat, centering around the first and by far the oldest monotheistic god Vishnu: Who is the cause of the evolution of the world and who is the conjoined essence and object of meditative wisdom and active virtue (karma)- Vishnu Purana, translated by H.H.Wilson. London 1840. Long after Krishna, the whole of humanity embraced, voluntarily, the Buddhist mindset of non-violence, human rights, rule of law, liberty and freedom, kindness etc., called Bodhisattva, that created the modern civilization.
Naimul Haq your on the wrong video sir. This is the HISTORY of eastern civilizations... Not the MYTHOLOGY of eastern civilizations.

@Person Hello Confucianism was an administrative and social guideline line, but the greatness of Buddhism lies in the mindset accepted by the whole of the civilized world and created the modern civilization.
South East Asian history predates the story presented here. It is evident that this video is based on 3rd degree sources rather than actual accounts of the people there. Sorry to say, but the indigenous SE Asians are melanesian people. Negritos, Alifuru, Papuas and Orang Asli. First Nations SE Asian. They have lived there for over 50.000 years and have had huge empires and civilizations predating the end of the ice age! Before the continent was flooded. There are plenty of written and archeological sources for this. It seems like this video, as entertaining as it is, is flawed in its attempt to fit a specific narrative/agenda. Greets from the Spice Islands.
In such a framework as this where would you fit the Indian civilisation? If it is not ‘eastern’ to be included here then is it ‘western’, or no separate civilisation? I think you’ve probably missed the various influences Indian and Chinese history had wielded with each other.
About 10 minutes in I realized I was standing at the door reading the "movie posters" and was never going to be able to watch the movie. At the 18 minute mark I was beginning to feel like there was a hidden message creeping in telling my I am a "racist" rofl. I stopped there.

How about Java ? Mighty Borobudur ?
Exactly i was waiting for it.... lots of things happened in java but they missed out on that i suppose
fyi.
borobudur is 50x50m
the forbidden city is 900mx1200m. i think almost 1000 borobudur can fit into forbidden city.
and that is their meh palace.
the daming palace is 5 times bigger than forbidden city and completed earlier by 300 years to borobudur
Ikr how can he called this eastern culture while not showing the mighty Borobudur temple or any middle age Indonesian Kingdoms such as Sriwijaya Empire and Majaphit Empire it's a crime
Sialan kita gak dianggap sama sekali ckck

Wow, East Asian and then put a south Asian country, Bhutan picture
I really praise your course but I aline with 130 billion people are offended with the map you have shown in the presentation. It literally feels the soul without head. I request you to correct it. The reason being here we are talking about ancient time where the newly formed country even didn't existed. China and India been so close culturally. Yet it would be great if we discuss the facts with the sights of true information which mean undivied India.
No offence.
This professor is very knowledgeable about East Asia historical development. However does he read Chinese, Japanese and Korean languages?
