Because of Asterix
Our ancestors had bad feeling about that place
Also spain
I'm loving that our ancestors decided that walking/rafting to Australia and North America was a more viable option than moving another 20 feet to go live in France.
France is "hidden" on 2 sides by mountain ranges.
Sure yes if you approach it from the north, its way easier, but those pastures where already quite great, living on fertile riverbeds in germany and the netherlands.
@@greentitan0262 France is also on the same continent, and shares coastlines on the North and South that was inhabited by other people. Also walking to Australia and circumnavigating it is no easy feat, let alone crossing ice bridges, going over the Rocky mountains, and going down to Florida. Let's face it, Humanity did a LOT in 40k years, basically anything to avoid Fr*nce, and who can blame them
They arrived in north america on land through russia.
@@michael9433 im just explaining what could be the most logical reasoning for what we see happening.
Just like that the entire coastline of australia was inhabited quite quickly, they didnt go inland for a long time because there was no real reason to. They had great food availabillity, and there where no islands they could see to travel to.
This in france happened aswell, just on a much smaller scale.
Ice ages as well
Imagine being one of the first people to cross Egypt and seeing the Mediterranean
That’s what I was thinking or the first to enter Asia through the Sinai

Fun fact: it is in discussion if the human expansion to the Americas occured first from Asia to North America (+/- 30k years ago), or from Africa to South America (+/- 50k years ago). Stlements and other discoveries started the debate, and among them is the "Serra da Capivara National Park", a world heritage site declared by UNESCO.
Also, the people who expanded to Madagascar first weren't in Africa. They sailed from Indonesia through the favorable currents of the sea, and then some people in Africa went there. That's why the linguistic group of the indigenous people of Madagascar is the same as the ones in Indonesia, and the genetic pool resembles other african groups

Nepal's mountains are what surprised me the most. They were discovered pretty late in human history. It shows how difficult it is to even explore them.
even today, borders arent really enforced there
"This rocky areas suck it freeze my ass off!"
Makes sense, they only discovered it after the last ice age, I imagine the massive ice sheet there was a huge discouragement from any human migrations
The fact that humans were in Siberia as early as 30,000 BC is insane to me. That place is like...absolute hell to survive in at its worst.

It's just crazy to see the population only at 1 Billion after hundreds of thousands of years. But after the 1900s (wars), it just literally took only 100 years more for that 1 billion to become 8 billion. Talk about comfort..
As I watched this time lapse, it occurred to me that to even *begin* considering just how many cultures coalesced, thrived, declined, then fell or were late absorbed or dispersed by another group throughout Mankind's nearly 300,000-year long history would be an exercise in futility and a path to madness.
Imagine: Just think of how many ethnicities, cultures, languages, religions, and so much more have been lost to the course of time, with little evidence of their existence left for future peoples to discover - if any would-be evidence survived in the first place?
It took those slackers a surprisingly long time to find Madagascar.
😂
The map is wrong here. Madagascar was only settled around 500 AD, not 4000BC. Most of the islands in the Atlantic were only settled in the 15th century.
hunter gatherers didn't have boat to travel they were walking to mid east so it kinda make sense they discovered it late, the hunter gatherer evolved first because they thrive harder while the one that stays in zone 1 still eenacting traditional practices to live, that's why staying in traditional value without seeing other cultural perspectives is a circling dead end of society.
Madagascar wasn’t discovered by Africans. It was actually discovered by Polynesians from Indonesia who sailed west over the Indian Ocean

Around 75,000 years ago the Toba eruption nearly wiped out humanity. Genetics for example show that humans went through a genetic bottleneck where only a few thousand people survived.
You see the black dot over China slowly disappear. Something tells me people were already there.
250,000 years ago, one species emerged in the savannahs of Africa. A species that was aware of the world around them, was able to think, talk, and form ideas. Comprehend its own existence. Creating art and culture, and outsmarting any predator through ingenuity. A species that expanded throughout the world, driven by curiosity, and the quest for knowledge.
And the universe was never the same. This is the story of Homo Sapiens, and we're living it.

The oldest homo sapien skull was discovered in Morocco in northwest Africa from around 315,000 years ago.
Was looking for this
I kinda recall there being theories that there was an extinction level event if not multiple before the ice age. Homonids had it rough for a long time until our sapien population grew and spread from subsaharan africa.
@@laniakealocal1934 You should be more responsible! >:(
@@mattyice2099It wasn’t an extinction-level event since Sapiens are still extant. All other species of humans are extinct, but the find in Morocco was of “us” (Homo sapiens.)
Sapiens have not only been around for at least 315,000 years, but were already traversing the Sahara at that time. Pervious theories suggested that Sapiens are of eastern African origin, but that’s now held to be in some doubt. Sapiens are now said to have emerged in sub-Saharan Africa in general, since they were constantly moving across the whole of that part of the continent, making it impossible to pin-down any exact place of origin more specific than that.
@@PrawnAddictionStupid joke I love it
It’s interesting to think that humanity originated around Lake Victoria and followed the Nile’s tributaries to what would become Egypt. This information was then lost, and the lake wouldn’t be rediscovered as the source of the Nile until the 19th century.
This is well made. I enjoyed it and learnt from it.
The Toba volcano eruption 74,000 years ago dropped human population to a few thousand. The timeline here shows a linear increase with no account for that catastrophe.
Also severals asteroids impacted the Americas in the 50,000-25,000 BC further reducing the population
That has only ever been a hypothesis, and there has been quite a bit of research since that has cast doubt on it.
@@michaelweston409 those reductions do show up in the population counter
This is a vague representation, not a point for point recap of the worlds population history bud.
there was an ice age 20k years ago, too. population should have fallen significantly during that period.
That last 10 second were remarkable and amazing! Well done!
From the year 1400 to 1700, almost everything unknown disappeared by Portuguese and Spanish explorers.🇵🇹🇪🇦
Forgot the almost extinction event of about 50,000 years ago. About that time frame, humanity was cut down to a little 5,000-10,000 people world wide.
If you want to learn more about our ancestors who lived 10,000 years ago and earlier, I recommend an excellent anthropologist named Stanislav Drobyshevsky. Unfortunately, he conducts lectures and records popular science videos only in Russian, and I do not know if this material has been translated into English. However, there is always a "subtitles" button, the main thing is to find a video where the sound quality is good. In addition to an interesting and understandable presentation, he also dilutes the lectures with jokes. I'll give you a couple of them:
- "More often a bear examines a person's coccyx than the other way around."
- "Turning legs into flippers and bodies into a fat skin does not contribute to the development of intelligence."
- "The Mesozoic was generally marked by some kind of rabies of devouring. It is clear that living creatures have been eating each other since the Precambrian, but in the Mesozoic everything went completely off the rails."

Weird to think how Antarctica, an entire continent, was only discovered in 1820 for the first time considering how far humanity had evolved already back then. Although there are also theories that Antarctica was already discovered several centuries earlier by polynesian seafarers.
Yeah probably. They didnt record the discovery and that led to ppl not realising anatarctica existed
Ur anus was discovered before Antarctica
I'm sure several places, technologies, ideas were discovered/ developed several times. Like the Americas, for example.
Maybe much earlier, but it is a very difficult place to survive without heavy equipment.
Any early civilization would likely die before they reach mainland Antarctica
Let us all thank this guy for keeping accurate census data all this time.
Homosapiens got to australia before getting that deep into europe.
I feel like there needs to be more contexts for this video with the additional information of major world events such as the ice age and the supervolcano eruption to make it easier for everyone to understand why things happen
Was about to point out that growth wasnt that constant. We all know that, but yeah, demographics are relevant enough and to have in mind. Toba, from what it's thought, got us very close to extinction.
funny was thinking the same. There some definite "pulses" of expansion that if I remember my geography, coincided with certain ice ages when land bridges appeared between continents as sea levels fell.
it's "mapsinanutshell". The short condensed format is the point
Can't wait until part 2 comes out with discovering space!!!!
yeah that would happen in 4024
It would probably just be mostly nothing then everything but it would get less and less blurry.
That gonna take thousands or even millions of years 💀
"discovering" and "inhabiting" are vastly different things, especially when it comes to space. I would love a timelapse of various stars and planets being discovered, starting with most of the night sky being visible immediately of course. It would be quite difficult to make though, so I'm not sure if anyone will any time soon.

Shout out to the ancestors who unlocked the whole map so we could fast travel
This sort of video gains a lot from on-screen notes of significant events and periods such as ice ages, sea level changes, great migrations, die-offs, and such.
It also helps to have things like the population counter not be on top of relevant parts of the map when there are vast swaths of empty ocean for such things.
The population counter is see through also this video is about the discovery of the world not sea levels and ice ages
the only thing is that it is full of errors. In some parts instead of facts it includes assumptions(showing much earlier dates - Estonia, Fenno-Scandia), while in others parts (Australia), it doesn't include facts and shows dates much later. at least these are errors what I saw the first time I saw the video. Somehow I think that the more I dive in, the more errors can be found.
I like how the entire history we know is in the last few seconds
Watching the map expand in Civilization holds the same kind of fascination for me.
It’s crazy how for 3/4 of our existence, we’ve been chilling in Africa
Man shoutout to the 10k people which spawned in 🙏😮💨
Must have been amazing to explore something no man had ever seen
THis is very interesting and well done, I like to see things like this.
Would be more interesting if the revealed map showed the changing sea levels and exposed terrain.
ice needs to be shown as well. GB + Ireland wasn't permanently populated until relatively recently because of Ice ages.
And deserts and forests and rivers have changed a lot too
Oh yeah absolutely, the earth changed so much. The modern map is completely different to how it was walked hundreds of thousands of years ago.
yea like scandinavia mostly was underwater and under thick ice with temp around -40C, there is no way humans explore this region 30k age ago, finland started forming around 10k age ago
When you play Plague Inc in reverse.
imagine theres just a tiny continent and i mean tiny in the pacific and we just havent discovered it
It’s interesting that this map blocks out the Sahara desert when we now know that it fluctuates between green oasis and desert gradually on a roughly 20,000 year cycle so it seems likely there would be a lot of human expansion done in that area since it’s so close to the origin of humans.
1:07 the oldest intelligent human settlement ever discovered in Europe was in grotte Chauvet in France 35 000 years ago yet it's still in the dark
It sucks,fake video
Also, the first evidence of humans in Australia dates to 50,000 to 65,000 years ago yet the map doesn't show it until around that same time stamp
Also, the first Homo sapien skull ever found (in 2017) is in Morocco in north-west Africa 315 000 y ago (Djebel Irhoud homosapian). You can google it, and it's not 250 000 in East Africa as mentioned on the video. There are a lot of mistakes in the video, unfortunately.
This transition does not reflect the Toba Catastrophe Theory: 70,000 years ago, the Toba eruption killed off all but 5,000 of the human population that lived in and around South Africa.
well it is a theory
Its just a *_Theory_* since it still does not have any conclusive proof beyond a reasonable doubt.
Interesting theory. Very very likely to be possible. But it is still just a theory, and not a fact, yet, until we find evidence that supports the theory beyond a reasonable doubt.

You know what's even crazier? The history of our entire species is about 240,000 years give or take. Fully civilized humanity is about 23000 years. Our current era as we count it, after Christ, is 2024 years...
And we've fully mapped out the earth by 1950. Having a perfect model of our entire planet seems like something natural and it seems like it's just been in our understanding for a while, but looking at this in perspective, we've known the entire earth for less than 1% of our history. And that is by my estimation, because all the numbers of humanity's existence are abstract.

Yup, thats one thing they don't seem to tesch well in schools. Just a simple population graph would blow our minds at how all throughout human history the population was relatively stable and climbed very very slowly and mostly remaining the same. Then, it wasn't until the 1,500s we saw some decent population growth - but it took 100 to 200 years for it to actually grow a bit, then between 1750 - 1900 the world finally saw some good growth from just under 1 billion people in the world to around 1.5 billion people in the world! So .5 times more people or a growth of 50% in 200 years - a new record!
Then starting in the year 1900 to 2023, the world saw the largest population incease AND fastest rate of increase in the entire worlds history.
We went from around 1.5 billion people to 8 billion people in a matter of about 100 years. Whoch os like an increase of almost 800% in ONLY 100 years !!!! Which is a staggering increase compared to the previous record of 50% increase between 1750 & 1900.
I don't think people realize just how insane that population increase is - and they especially dont comprehend the rate of increase in population and just how fast and recent it was.
This is why its so difficult to compare modern behaviors and social norms to the historical norms. The world and society is just fundamentally different based off the population size and rate of increase inherently. Humans throughout history have never had soany choices for mates, or opportunities for jobs or such big & close social connections that cities offer. Sure there was big cities like london back in the day, but it was nothing like how it is now.
This is why modern societies have soooo many problems that just simply did not exist in the past - because there just wasn't as many people back then, so societies & economies worked completely differently.
Amazing how much the deserts and mountain areas slowed exploration down. You can see how mankind went up the Nile to find the mediterranean.

How is this Europe centric?
Africa is literally the center focus here tho
@@blizyon30fps86the prime meridian runs straight through London. Europe is quite literally in the center of the map
In other words, putting Africa on the far left and America on the far right means we can our spread from left to right in one shot without needing to wrap around the edge. Until _very_ recently the Atlantic was a major barrier while the land-bridge across Alaska meant a pacific route was there early on.
This view is the classic view for European maps, which were drawn when Transatlantic expansion was the new big thing; but in terms of human expansion across all history, putting the Alaska bridge middle-right makes more sense since Transatlantic crossing is an ocean-jump anyways

As others have suggested you seem to have missed the Toba population bottleneck, but you also have people in Madagascar 4000 years too early.
