Emperor Hadrian ordered the construction of a wall spanning the width of northern Britannia, marking the northwest frontier of the Roman Empire. Hadrian's Wall was mighty in proportion as both a defensive structure and a physical reminder of the Roman Empire's strength and power. Diagrams and purposeful narration make this a valuable resource for high school classical studies and history courses.

We are going to build a wall, a great wall and the celts are gonna pay for it!
- Emperor Hadrian 117 A.D
Freaking underrated comment😂-🎺 24!
Good one. 😂
A perfect little video on Hadrian's Wall, and brief history of it. Thank you very much.
Hadrian got this idea from "The Wall" in Game of Thrones.
Not many people know this
😂😂
Its like a time paradox, hadrian got it from George, george got it from hadrian's wall
Hmm, i was pretty he got it from Pink Floyd's 1979 album
i guess Im kinda off topic but does anyone know a good site to watch new series online ?
One day, I shall walk this entire wall.
Doing that tomorrow!
oh they doing it right now as we speak.
@@lauramenzies9042 how did that go
"But it is not on this day."
I live an hours drive a way from Hadrians wall but I’ve only ever drove through when visiting Scotland. I shall walk it one day
Its been a year did you walk it yet
I will be visiting it in a month. You have no idea how excited I am to finally see this. ❤
@@graceamerican3558how did it go?
Did you know this is the wall that inspire the iced wall in GoT.
Was there in 1995. Everyone asked "Why?" I loved it.
Roma il più grande e glorioso impero della storia, la grandezza, la potenza, la magnificenza e la gloria di ROMA È AETERNA, ROMA INVICTA ET LUX MUNDI 💪💯
@@angeloargentieri5605 It's "aeterna"
I will be visiting it next month. I am excited.
Excellent video! Thank you.
Great job. I enjoyed this video. Perfect!
I only hate the bracelet... this is an invention from Hollywood. Roman Soldier didn't wear them ....
Quelle incroyable vidéo, un chef d'œuvre cinématographique allié avec une musique palpitante. Mes félicitations (Ps: UwU balustrade)
Thanks 🙏 for the informations
“Reinforced Romes confidence that they can go anywhere and do anything”….. except conquer the northern Celts
Picts
The Romans did go north, built another wall between the Clyde and Forth and then continued up - there were roman forts up to Inverness.
Why they didn't stay was probably a few reasons, the main one being resource extraction - they mustn't have found anything worth mining in the area (Britain as a while was known for it's tin, lead and gold) and the second main reason was probably manpower, the Legions were in short supply and always needed in other parts of the empire. Additionally the British tribes that were nominally 'pacified' did kick off from time to time so their lines of communication from the south coast and on to the continent were not always as secure as they should be. The Romans pulled back from the Antonine Wall not because of the pressure from the tribes to the north but because the Brigantes (who lived in what is now North Yorkshire) creating a fuss and compromising their supply routes.
and they were indeed super magical people which im sure rome feared.
My wife wondered why I wanted to look at some rocks; I was moved by putting my hands on a stone which was placed by some 1900 years ago. Ditto the Great Wall in China.
There, when I asked the guide how the Mongols breached the wall, he shrugged and said 'Bribery'. Here it seems that the builders were locals impressed or hired by the Romans; 'Romans' by pay-check only, and not particvlarly concerned with keeping their cousins on the other side (yes, that was on purpose).
Still, recommended.
0:32 - The Great Wall was also designed to take advantage of the geography.
I envy you.
WOW, Hadrian is so famous that he has he's own wall
His*
Trump has his own wall too but I doubt it will make it past 50 years lol 😂
@@salasrcp90yes it will be finished in far less time. FJB
wow
The sycamore tree was,so iconic as well
Très bonne vidéo !
Merci pour le manuel
got you
If, like they say in this video that the wall was a reminder that they could go anywhere and do anything, why didn’t the just take over Scotland? 😆
Because Hadrian was done with war!
how did the romans know when pangia split and the earths crust started to devide and where the wall is built, the land mass on the north side was once part of norway clever engineers, in my eyes theres has only and will only be two empires, roman and victorian empires
If he built the wall to keep the Picts out he wasn't very successful Antoninus Pius had to build another one in central Scotland.
Construction of the wall didn't begin in 122 CE, it began in 122 AD.
CE refers to the same period as AD
The jon snow make the cokie cokie with sam there.
Merci grâce à vous on perd 30 minutes d'anglais les frerots 👍
Moi c’est évaluer mais carré
Mdrr force à toi alors
Many assertions in this video don't make sense. So, it was to "reinforce Rome's supreme confidence that they could go anywhere and do anything" (5:00)? But they could not hold territory north of the wall, and the wall itself was a confession that that was the case.
This is covered at about 2:45. "Unlike his predecessor ,Trajan, Hadrian didn't continue the expansionist policy... wanted to stabilize and consolidate the empire" They're talking about the construction of the wall itself as a feat that reinforced the idea they could do anything

To keep Celts out. Celts drank the blood of their dead and practiced withcraft!
And also because the regions north of birtannia were kind of useless and conquer it would just unecessarly stretch the empire more
Conquering Britannia was already kind of unecessary and was basically just propaganda for emperor Claudius
What's wrong with that?
You are aware that all the Britons were Celt? So that includes all the Britons living in the area now known as 'England'.
@@colinearnshaw7725 but the Angles and Saxons and Danish were no Celts!
2:23 *Iberia
Did Britons not have ships? Or even small boats you could just go around the wall
The Picts into days Scotland had great ships
whats .a vallum?
A large flat bottom ditch.
117 AD. Anno Domini
Fortified road between coasts to transport metals slaves wool and iron brew
Largest empire
Mongols: I am a joke to you
Their empire was territorial very extensive but not even remotely comparable to the Roman Empire in organization or social-political complexity. No wonder you can still wonder around Roman walls all over Europe (and more) but won't find any tangible signs of the mongols' conquest nowadays.
Did Rome never get into China and India ?
China fell to horse nomads, ruled by a Mongol dynasty for 3 centuries. India was raided by Turko-Afghan rulers, was ruled by the Mughals right till the British showed up. So no, they had their own unique history. Mongols and Mughals are China and Indias, conqueror/rulers. In fact in India, they despise this past so much that there are news channel, where they curse Babur, the first Mughal King in India, don’t you know, its hyper patriotic right now in India just from the fact that a 500 years ago old ruler is being shat at!!
Comparison between ancient Rome and ancient China Just like the Maya and the Spanish，You should be lucky that there is an Arab world between them, or you will speak mandarin today，As for India, it has never been a unified country. It is a nation established after British colonization，and then learn more about history，Don't immerse yourself in the dog world
@@user-yi9ls5uf3v I never asked this ?
@@Supercool12345andy Compared with the fragmentary and superficial history you know，For Primates🐒like you who have just evolved from the jungle，The toilet and your biological father is the real problem you should consider~
We couldn’t build that today within 6 years
with slaves yes
noi
Were the Northern people so short 🙄
No. The Brigantes were described as 'tall and noble'
No, that's why the wall is there, the ancient Brits were bigger than the Romans, but the Romans had better technology.
U know guys something really interesting. Polar and Arctic animals/species tend to be larger in general than their grassland cousins and even more so than their rainforest counterparts. Its the reason polar animals are bigger as they loose less heat, since their surface area to volume ratio is lesser. I know its applied for mammalian fauna, but aren’t humans mammals as well?! Why can’t this phenomenon be true for human populations as well? Although this, businesses of Big Nord/Smaller Briton thing might be the remnants of this phenomenon playing a part way before, like around the Neolithic age, or when Neanderthals still roamed the earth. I am in no way suggesting this to be recent as even within 4000 years of human history. Food for thought? Genetic drift like that takes a long time, and given how long back these migrations were, it might just be enough that by the time, of the Romans, this difference became noticeable..
Adrian + Hadi = hadrian
Did Hadrian ever come to England?
what are the odds that the wall and the emperor had the same name.
Bonjourre

Kindly donn't take it heart if I said something wrong.
600 hundred years later the barbarians rather stay with Rome I mean the EU 😂
Scottish came later from Ireland.
Eh?
who were the barbarians? The Romans or the Non-Romans?
The Scottish just go along with anyone rather than be a part of England…. They are ridiculously petty.
Mmm...if they were so mighty, why the need for a wall. Feel that Scottish pride welling up😁
Funny how the Romans needed a wall but the English have never needed one.
It’s. It on the Scott border it’s entirely in England
If the Americans are so mighty, why build the wall with Mexico? I think moving earth, building mega structures is way to perpetuate their superiority. No? I think the Romans, and Hadrian were thinking on the same lines…sadly but yea it can be taken with pride. People remember the Mongol conquest of China not the valiant defense of the Chinese. 🫡
I'm of Latin stock, I actually look quite Roman, big beard, tanned skin, straight long nose, etc. I'm Italian in descent.
If that's the closest thing to a roman you can get then I'll tell you why we didn't go beyond the wall.
It's too fucking cold 🥶 and you crazy bastards are wearing kilts and no pants in this weather, wtf haha
Picts
yeeeet
Shut up.
Don't hold it against Adrian.
There were black people in the Roman Empire. I don’t know why everyone says they conquered all over the ancient world but documentaries still depict the people as only white.
They were fewer than whites because they mostly came from the African provinces. And even there most where white-ish Berbers
The romans never conquered sub-saharan Africa
Because it's the majority
The minority is not important enough for it to be depicted
So the hell what 🥱
They aren't 'white-ish' they're brown, some of them look very similar to East-Africans.
@@AdrianDanielGuard
Hadrian stole this idea from George RR Martin
Wtf is ce?
The Chinese knock-off version is longer and can be seen from space.
Came from map men
It's was built to hide the monkeys head. Abit like the great wall
not this "CE " bullshit!
'Common Era' is more objective than AD...
@@darania1 so what is common era and what's the objective? Where does it start and finish? It's just anti Christ bullshit
@@darania1Who cares
@williamsherman1089 Indeed about as much as I care for your inane opinion thanks...
China 3000 yrs: Builds a long wall.
USA 300 yrs: Put man on Moon 🦾😊
Well the technology is the keyword. It is the driving force of progress. USA was a conglomeration of peoples after the great industrial revolution in Britain and Europe. A new nation born amidst an age where industry and machines were changing urban living like never before… things moved a lot faster sure.
Lmao what does this even have to do with hadrians wall
Why do so many roman soldier actors have leather wrist bands in this? It looks very un historical and american
they certainly did not work so heavy with their armours on. Armed soldiers would have stood guard while the others worked.
Descendants of Trump built this wall.
Yes
Hadrian said he's going to build a great wall and make the picts pay for it
You mean the ancestors of Tump, right?
@@malcolmstead272 the ancestors of Trump were Germans
@@rnies6849 Really?
@@malcolmstead272 you can google it. Their original family name was Trumpf
Who wrote this? It's a ridiculous distortion of the brutal imperialism that was Rome. Hadrian built the wall because the Romans could not conquer the Picts ( modern day Scots). You don't build Custom Posts that are the length, height and breadth of that wall with the garrison that was. This is English propaganda. Their historians hate the fact that the Romans conquered what is now England , despite the fact the English hadn;t even arrived yet. Boadicea was a Celtic, welsh speaking queen, not English. So called Brittania was inhabited with tribes who spoke the P and Q forms of Celtic languages. The commentary said that the Romans 'could go anywhere' because of the wall.
Well they tried,, and Hadrian's successor built Antonine's wall, further North...so much for peaceful Rome....and it was destroyed,, and the invading army of Romans lost 50,000 men. Modern Scotland has never been conquered, not by Romans and not by English..Alba Gu Brath!
Just so you know. All the Britons were Celts including those of us who live in 'England'. The Romans didn't consolidate their power in Caledonia as there was no great economic reason to do so. All the principle resources (lead, iron, copper, tin and the good agricultural land) was south of the Wall. The Wall incidentally was also used to 'divide and rule' the northern British kingdoms like the Brigantes and the Votadini. The Antonine Wall was abandoned around 160 CE following yet another uprising by the northern tribes in 'England'. Indeed the northern tribes in 'England' i.e south of the Wall were so troublesome that the Emperor Severus ruled the Empire from York whilst he took charge.
@@colinearnshaw7725 Just so you know: The 'Caledonia ..no great economic reason to conquer it' is a bullshit politicised trope created by modern English historians to diminish present day Scotland. We have some of the best arable land and had vast forests in that period to be found in the UK . Also, with gold being found in Galloway and the Highlands. If you read my previous comment properly, I stated that 'England' did not exist during the Roman occupation of what is now Northumbria and south. Britania and Caledonia as the Romans called both parts of the Greater British island were inhabited by peoples whose languages of Gaelic (Irish and Scots)and Brythonic (welsh) have been passed down to those now known as 'celts, whose descendants currently inhabit those areas. Certainly in modern Scotland's case, the facile and transparent racist argument that the Romans couldn't be bothered to conquer i.e. could not conquer, and that 'troublesome'' Northern'' (?) tribes drove them out? . Sorry, but any tribes originating from the Antonine or even Hadrian walls' areas would be in the midland of the Brythonic island of Greater Britain. Your anglophile lip is showing there, the tribes you mention were not anglo saxons, but Celts. In fact it was the further 'north' tribes: The Damnonii and the Caledonian tribes were the tribes that destroyed Antonine's wall and forced the Romans back to Hadrian's ( the so-called custom post).
If anyone doubts the politicising of this subject, consider how Boadicea ( a Celtic Queen, with flaming red hair) is glorified in her failed 'uprising' by the same cohort of English historians, who deliberately conflate her with the conflated Anglo Saxon/British narrative of heroic failure . Whereas, the resolute , resistance and refusal to surrender, and the huge losses inflicted on the Roman incursions by the barbaric imperialistic Romans .Inflicted by the true 'northern' tribes beyond both walls is diminished and discounted. I wonder why this contradiction keeps raising its anglophile head?
that means the Romans were cleverer than the British in the 19.th century when they tried to "pacify" Afghanistan.
rome could conquer the picts at any time they wanted
I wished you were right, but you are not. The Romans counted the costs and the result and found out that it was not worth to conquer that Rough Country! At the time of Hadrian the Romans had an army of 400 thousand all over the Empire. The Scots could not have recruited more than 10 or 15 thousand and would not have a chance in the open field to any of the Roman armies like most of all other enemies.
The romans couldn’t conquer the scots but the English did
the English got wiped out by the Normans in 1066 it was the Norman French who occupied today Scotland but it was never conquered (Scotland) then again James 6th of Scotland in 1603 took the English Crown (actually Norman French crown)!!!
