Armenia was one of the few kingdoms that was constantly reemerging as a sovereign state, although being surrounded by the two most powerful empires of the time.
If 2nd video will end in 476 I hope this channel will at least do some justice to that year not actually being real end of the Roman state.Depends on if channel decide to follow still currently dominantly used labels and concepts or if it would admit that entire "Byzantine" empire concept and terminology is hugely imperfect and badly manipulative.Even many modern scholars dislike(artificially fabricated!) Byzantine concept from these reasons.
you seem to like history a lot. very nice video btw. however, if you want to be historically accurate and avoid falling into the discredited, ahistorical notion that the empire ended in 476, then the you must know that the empire actually fell in 1453 with the fall of the 'new rome' i.e constantnople. an interesting fact you might enjoy is that modern day greeks also refer to themselves as 'romios;' 'ρωμιός', while all the people of the levante, arabs, turks, persians etc call the citizens occupying the lands of what later (medieval era) became know as byzantium, which in reality is the eastern Roman empire, "rum". just some points worth considering. p.s the germanic conquerors of rome proper wanted to appropriate the title of rome for themselves to gain historical legitimacy and be seen as legitimate heirs, and thus attempted to discredit the eastern roman empire by dubbing it byzantium. if you would have asked what people living in the eastern part of southern europe and north africa thought they were, the would definitely have responded without hesitation romans citizens. @@Fireoflearning
I hope there's a part four to 1806 and a part five to 1917. As to pronunciation, it seems the Classical pronunciation is more widespread for people talking about ancient Rome which is appropriate for your video whereas the Ecclesiastical pronunciation with regional inflections is more favored for Latin in legal, scholastic, medieval, and obviously, church contexts. An example of this is "certiorari" where the classicist might say "kair tee or are ee" and the ecclesiastical use would be "chair tsee or are ee" whereas the typical modern use is "sher see or are ee"
Why do all the documentaries about Rome so heavily focus on military and warfare? I think this undermindes the importance of Rome in terms of culture, religion, architecture and social structure
If you think of their engineering feats. all without electric. sewers. crowned roads hot and cold running water. the drinking fountains .pile drivers. strip mining public baths. hydrolic cement. and on and on.
Thank you for these wonderful straight-forward docs. Too many channels tend come across more as infotainment with their snarky commentary and distracting production styles.
Late to the party but still. Your scripting is impecable, it kept me engaged through the whole videa. I'd suggest you add either subtitles or just write on screen the names and some of the eventes you're talking about to add a visual guide as to what you are talking about. Overall great video, keep it up
Amazing video, as always; your channel never disappoints. I’m sure it’ll come some day, but given your extensive knowledge of Greco-Roman connections, I would love a video on the full history of the Greeks this way, from the beginnings all the way to the conquest by Rome. The period post-Alexander’s death and pre-Roman conquest of Macedonia and the rest of Greece has always fascinated me.
Hi this is the first video I have watched on your channel. Having watched documentaries since I was 9, I can tell when someone puts effort into their work and you have done a great job. I would really appreciate it and I'm sure the community would to if you would write and produce a full multiple series on the French revolution and Napoleonic Wars era. Thank you so much for producing such a great video with a broad spectrum of information in an easy way to digest and understand! Two thumbs up!!
More like CAESAR: "I'm attacking you" POMPEY: "You and what arm.. Oh shit" ANTONY: "I'M TURNING THIS INTO AN EMPIRE" Octavian: "No, I am turning it into an empire - Not you!" ANTONY: "You and what arm.. Oh shit!"
I heard they settled the civil war in a heated dice game in a back alley in greece... The loser fled to Egypt and the winner was the first dictator of the civilized world. That's how it goes down with a game of click clack.
I mean given the choice to go back to any period in history for the day would definitely be during the height of agustus reign. With that said it in no way would be all its cracked up to be.
Rome in all its Imperial glory would have been during the reign of Trajan I believe. I would also go back to the reign of Augustus though, and get eaten alive by them no doubt
@@salvatore5553 That's a difficult question, and one that's subject to a lot of personal bias, I admit. Since I personally feel that cultural/religious tolerance and technological innovation are important, I would say either the Achaemenid Empire or the Abbasid Caliphate.

Have you ever listened to Mike Duncan's The History of Rome podcast? This video was great but Mike Duncan's HoR section covering just the 7 kings and republic is over 16 hours long and goes into much more depth then this video. Fire of Learning crammed as much as he could into one hour but Duncan doesn't have any time restraints so you get 16x the info covering the exact same period of time. However Fire of learning has gave us some visuals to go with the history while if your lucky you get one static map from Duncan. If you enjoyed this you will also enjoy Mike Duncan's HoR and his podcast is available on UA-cam from uploader of his podcast. I've probably listened to Duncan's podcast of Rome 20x's as I play it every night when I go to bed. Give it a listen.
I know a girl named "Erin." She has a hairy vulva that she likes to show people. I say to Erin: What's with that hairy snizz, don't you wanna show it to people who are interested? But, she doesn't. Her hairy vagina is all over the place.
Keep making these long documentaries. I look forward to them and learn more about history from you than I did in school. You make learning fun. Thank you ♥️
i really love your presentations! please do a history of Greece. also the Spanish empire and specifically how such a rich powerful influential empire fell to what it is today.
Idk why but I always feel a sense of bittersweetness or melancholy or something like that when I think of Rome. I wish it survived all the way to the modern day.
If any of you enjoyed this and I'm sure you mostly did as it's awesome. I highly recommend Mike Duncan's HoR podcast. The total podcast covers from Romulus to the final Emperor coincidently named Romulus. It's total running time is over 40 hours and I loved every minute of it. I listen to it every night when I go to bed so I've probably heard it 20 times. If you don't want to download a podcast their are reuploads that have put it on UA-cam. That's actually my preferred listening method as you are given a map and no ads.
@@alphakay3917 That's great to hear! It's my favorite podcast of all time. Once you finish it I highly recommend 2 audiobooks both ready by Charlton Griffin. 1: Rex Warner's translation of Julius Caesar's "Gaulic Wars" narrated by Charlton Griffin which is free on UA-cam. With Charlton Griffin narrating the book it feels like it's coming straight from the mouth of Julius Caesar himself! 2: Audiobook again narrated by the great Charlton Griffin. Hannibal: One man against Rome. This gives you the detailed story of the second Punic War from Hannibal's perspective. Only place I can find this is on Audible which you can get a 30 day free trial on and listen to this book and cancel your membership. Here is a 3rd Bonus recommendation. 3: Another Audiobook narrated by Charlton Griffin "Alexander the Great: Anabasis by Arrian". This book was written in 2nd century AD about the campaigns of Alexander the Great. It's the only ancient full telling of the life of Alexander the Great and is an extremely fun listen. This one is FREE on UA-cam if you search the quoted title of the audiobook on UA-cam.
I’ve had a long day.. got a lot going on in my life that’s tearing me down. I can’t think of ANYTHING else that would help me right now but this… thank you..
Well explained history of Rome (up to just before Hadrian); Very well narrated; Absolutely GREAT PRONUNCIATION of LATIN NAMES. Finally somebody who doesn't mix things too much!..😁 Well done!!
Great video! Ever considered doing history on the indo Europeans? Egypt, South Africa, and Russia would be great as well. Love the channel, keep it up!
I hadn't considered the Indo-Europeans, but that is a good idea. I've done a short video on the Anglo-Zulu war, but I do plan to do one on South Africa and those other nations soon as well
People of the world should admire and following Rome with one trait: They never give up. They could be almost totally destroyed, but through toughness, and diligently gather themselves together and put up a fight again, and won.
9:25 - I'm a little surprised that you didn't mention the ransom of the city and the "vae victis" incident. To my understanding, this had a profound impact/trauma on the Roman zeitgeist that lasted indefinitely.
I love your history videos and I'm still awaiting for your Ancient Egypt documentary videos as Roman (including Byzantine Empire) and Egyptian history is my favorite.
Hey fire of learning, could you please do a video on the development on the Spanish colonies in early Latin America and what life was like as an average mestizo or Spaniard living in South America during the 1600s and 1700s, how the class system worked back then and how often people from different races inter-marry each other. It’s a part of history I’m extremely interested in but never gets talked about much for some reason.
The way Rome fought itself but still managed to conquer a large segment of their known world is impressive. Imagine what Rome could have achieved if they didn't fought amongst themselves?
Rome strikes me as a people from Star Wars, specifically the Mandolorians in the Old Republic. They believe conflict is a way to enrich themselves both culturally and spiritually. They are fiercely independent and believe that internal conflicts need to be resolved quickly to avoid any outside influence. Rome is for Rome and only the strongest will serve her best. It's also a way of culling the weak and undesirables from the population. At least during the High Republic and Imperial Republic Eras of Rome. However victory weakened Rome overtime and they did not retain the drive they once had and instead of internal conflicts to serve the State, they were toward the later end, geared toward personal ambition.
I think it's important to note that Caesar probably never saw any combat himself when inside the front lines. On some occasions he would dismount his horse, grab a sword and shield and encourage his men to push forward. But he never actually fought enemies himself.
""Romulus won the debate... by killing his brother"", I don't believe there is another more persuading argument than this in history

These documentaries are amazing. Thank you for taking the time to make them!
I know a girl named "Erin." She has a hairy vulva that she likes to show people. I say to Erin: What's with that hairy snizz, don't you wanna show it to people who are interested? But, she doesn't. Her hairy vagina is all over the place.
Great video! Thank you! Tomorrow I become a patron. Can’t wait for that Spain Portugal video!
Thank you, greatly appreciated friend!
Underrated History channel, just loved ypur content❤
Keep making these long documentaries. I look forward to them and learn more about history from you than I did in school. You make learning fun. Thank you ♥️
Please make a part 2,your content is excellent.
there is a part 2
Thank you so much for putting this material together. I enjoyed and learned a lot.
This is now my favorite UA-cam channel. Been binging for almost two days now
This is fantastic. If you like European history this is it!!!!!!
Love the video, very helpful. I would suggest to add on the screen the names of the battles and the years (so i can make notes!). 😀
Can do!
All your documentaries are amazing!!
Best documentary in UA-cam about roman Empire
Please do an informative layout of the Crusades, either individually of all eight as a whole.
It’s crusading time, take back the holy land!
This 1000x over!
@shane marz Then let Yahweh do it himself.
@@Master_Blackthorne 😂😂😂😂
Yes, please! 😁
Don’t know how I found this channel but I am glad that I have. Great channel 👍
Insanely good video. Thanks so much for putting this together.
I find myself coming back to this video every few months
Nice touch with the authentic ancient Latin pronunciation!
Really informative and engaging video. Thank you for making this, I look forwarding to watching the next part of this.
i really love your presentations! please do a history of Greece. also the Spanish empire and specifically how such a rich powerful influential empire fell to what it is today.
Justin, you are the best, thank you very much for your great channel from Japan.
Fantastic documentary!!! Thank you so much for making this available.
This is great! Thank you! I've been obsessed with Rome lately.
i think about these guys every second of every day 😂
I got chills down my spine when you introduced Julius Caesar
Rome: Did you do it?
Puris: Yes.
Rome: What did it cost?
Puris: Everything.

Great documentary and narrator! Keep them coming!
Idk why but I always feel a sense of bittersweetness or melancholy or something like that when I think of Rome. I wish it survived all the way to the modern day.
Condensing Rome into one hour is a huge undertaking. You did a fantastic job with that.
If any of you enjoyed this and I'm sure you mostly did as it's awesome. I highly recommend Mike Duncan's HoR podcast. The total podcast covers from Romulus to the final Emperor coincidently named Romulus. It's total running time is over 40 hours and I loved every minute of it. I listen to it every night when I go to bed so I've probably heard it 20 times. If you don't want to download a podcast their are reuploads that have put it on UA-cam. That's actually my preferred listening method as you are given a map and no ads.
it's fantastic 😊
Thanks for this suggestion. Four years later, your comment has helped me find this. Found it on Spotify too so that's even more convenient for me!
@@alphakay3917 That's great to hear! It's my favorite podcast of all time.
Once you finish it I highly recommend 2 audiobooks both ready by Charlton Griffin.
1: Rex Warner's translation of Julius Caesar's "Gaulic Wars" narrated by Charlton Griffin which is free on UA-cam. With Charlton Griffin narrating the book it feels like it's coming straight from the mouth of Julius Caesar himself!
2: Audiobook again narrated by the great Charlton Griffin. Hannibal: One man against Rome. This gives you the detailed story of the second Punic War from Hannibal's perspective. Only place I can find this is on Audible which you can get a 30 day free trial on and listen to this book and cancel your membership.
Here is a 3rd Bonus recommendation.
3: Another Audiobook narrated by Charlton Griffin "Alexander the Great: Anabasis by Arrian". This book was written in 2nd century AD about the campaigns of Alexander the Great. It's the only ancient full telling of the life of Alexander the Great and is an extremely fun listen. This one is FREE on UA-cam if you search the quoted title of the audiobook on UA-cam.
I’ve had a long day.. got a lot going on in my life that’s tearing me down.
I can’t think of ANYTHING else that would help me right now but this… thank you..
Best wishes to you!
Well explained history of Rome (up to just before Hadrian);
Very well narrated;
Absolutely GREAT PRONUNCIATION of LATIN NAMES.
Finally somebody who doesn't mix things too much!..😁
Well done!!
U R A GOOD STORY TELLER, THAT'S MY WORD, KEEP IT UP BRO, RESPECT
This helped me a lot on my homework and i finally got a A+ on my degree. Thank you so much.
Well done
These documentaries are WAY underrated
Noice. This was captivating the whole time. I look forward to the next part.
Absolutely amazing content! Great job man!
Great video! Ever considered doing history on the indo Europeans? Egypt, South Africa, and Russia would be great as well. Love the channel, keep it up!
I hadn't considered the Indo-Europeans, but that is a good idea. I've done a short video on the Anglo-Zulu war, but I do plan to do one on South Africa and those other nations soon as well
@@FireoflearningA video on the Indo-Europeans would include a large chunk of Eurasia, so that would have to be a more generalised video.
People of the world should admire and following Rome with one trait: They never give up. They could be almost totally destroyed, but through toughness, and diligently gather themselves together and put up a fight again, and won.
thanks for giving us the whole document of roman, im roman so this means alot
Isn't Rome in the Papal States?
Fantastic video. Simple, to the point and informative. Bravo.
Sooo many catastrophic defeats yet they still survived for a long time
War between Rome and Carthage was just amazing and epic.
Excellently laid out. Very good and concise explanation of Rome and its development into the ancient and modern world
I’ve watched this video so many times that I forgot.. the best rome history on UA-cam
Amazing doco. Thanks for all your time and effort.
Watching at 00:53 this is your content level and my fire of learning thanks for making
9:25 - I'm a little surprised that you didn't mention the ransom of the city and the "vae victis" incident. To my understanding, this had a profound impact/trauma on the Roman zeitgeist that lasted indefinitely.
I also was waiting for this event. *I am Brennus, hear me roar!*
Really love your and oversimplified's video
This would be an hour full of joy and culture
Excellent production.marvellous narration
Excellent documentary, learned a lot.
Thanks for helping me pass my midterm
It's a great documentary, I wish you could do similar about Greece
Thanks for this. I've recently played Total War - Rome II ; and this is just the youtube history video I was looking for.
what a great video, thanks for sharing it
I love your history videos and I'm still awaiting for your Ancient Egypt documentary videos as Roman (including Byzantine Empire) and Egyptian history is my favorite.
Hey fire of learning, could you please do a video on the development on the Spanish colonies in early Latin America and what life was like as an average mestizo or Spaniard living in South America during the 1600s and 1700s, how the class system worked back then and how often people from different races inter-marry each other.
It’s a part of history I’m extremely interested in but never gets talked about much for some reason.
I think I just found my favourite UA-cam channel.
The way Rome fought itself but still managed to conquer a large segment of their known world is impressive.
Imagine what Rome could have achieved if they didn't fought amongst themselves?
Rome would have been unstoppable if they hadn't been fighting each other. It might have expanded far beyond the territorial expanse of 117 AD.
Rome strikes me as a people from Star Wars, specifically the Mandolorians in the Old Republic. They believe conflict is a way to enrich themselves both culturally and spiritually. They are fiercely independent and believe that internal conflicts need to be resolved quickly to avoid any outside influence. Rome is for Rome and only the strongest will serve her best. It's also a way of culling the weak and undesirables from the population.
At least during the High Republic and Imperial Republic Eras of Rome. However victory weakened Rome overtime and they did not retain the drive they once had and instead of internal conflicts to serve the State, they were toward the later end, geared toward personal ambition.
I just found this video!
IT'S GREAT!!!!
THANK YOU.
I subscribed and will be bing watching tonight!
I think it's important to note that Caesar probably never saw any combat himself when inside the front lines. On some occasions he would dismount his horse, grab a sword and shield and encourage his men to push forward. But he never actually fought enemies himself.
Very Nicely Done!!! Looking forward to the next one! Thank You
Here from Historia Civilis for a continuation of the Roman drama!
What a civilization to last for 2206 years.
Can't wait to find out which countries/empires will be next. China? Egypt? Canada? Phoenicians? Greeks?
None. For one country to conquer another = total destruction
