The Levant is a mixing pot for religious and cultural diversity which has given the world incredible displays of civilization. Unfortunately the mismanagement of this diversity has at times given way to outbursts of conflict. This is particularly the case in the modern period. As European imperial forces started to interfere with the affairs of a declining Ottoman Empire that was proving incapable of solving its own internal issues, sectarian and ethnic tensions spilled over in episodes of extreme violence. A prominent early example took place in the summer of 1860 when Ottoman Syria was beset by a civil conflict between its Christian, Muslim and Druze inhabitants. Having lived together in relative peace for centuries, the different groups drew arms in clashes that saw tens of thousands of people get killed. The repercussions of the feud would go on to influence the Levant for decades to come. In the case of Lebanon specifically, it is not an exaggeration to say that it determined its future to the present day.

Nice vídeo, the Lebanese refuges have the biggest community in diaspora here in Brazil, their culture is all over here, I would love to see a continuation talking more about they. Thanks for the vídeo, from São Paulo 🇧🇷
And 99% of them are christian
Actually the number of lebanese in Brazil given by the embassies is hugely inflated. Estimates from actual research is more around 1 million for all descendants of any arabs including mixed, including syrian and lebanese, which makes more sense considering the relatively small number of immigrants overall. That only makes sense considering the number of immigrants (less than even japanese) and that they were urban folks with relatively small families. France, thus, certainly has more lebanese than Brazil does nowadays.
Besides immigration to Brazil was way before the civil war, they weren't refugees.
@@FOLIPE wrong. Your former president was Lebanese.
@@FOLIPE there are 12 million Lebanese outside lebanon worldwide with 8 million of them in Brazil

really? Christians are not your "friends" lmfao. They worship a contradiction. their religion is completely absurd and false. never equate truth with falsehood.
I'm Armenian and have a Sunni friend from Damascus, who comes from a well off jewler family. His father always said that Armenians and generally Ortodoks Christians are the same and religion should not get in between. After 2011, they escaped towards Cairo, losing everything because of ISIS. His father died due to stress, and for 9 years my friend had worked his way to come to America, and found an Armenian uncle from Aleppo who became his guide and translator and through him we discovered each other. Syria is my heart, Lebanon is my bones, and Armenia is my soul, we are amazingly similar. Also, Armenians took part in both sides unfortunately, we supported the Palestinians and Syrians through ASALA and the Maronites through the Dashnak party.
Love this story and you brother ❤ Thank you and ur uncle for protecting and helping this man ❤ 😢
May God bless you, your family and ur sunni friend ❤

Its weird seeing this as a Serb from the Balkans.
At the same time we were also under the Ottomans but as a Autonomous state De jure and independent De facto.
In the same period with Muslims killing Christians in the Levant the same was happening with Christians killing Muslims in the Balkans.
No wonder the Ottomans were paralyzed, wherever they turned there was a rebellion of whatever you want religion or ethnicity.

In the 1850s Maronites did not attack Druzes they attacked their overlords who happen to be Druze just as they did the Maronite lords.
Exactly . They were living as slaves in very miserable conditions , being overworked and abused by the lords
Exactly, maronite population back then was triple that of the Druze.

Thanks Simon!
Although this war killed many people, it had one positive thing, which is that it made the Levant travel to all countries of the world and introduce the world to the prosperous culture and civilization of the Levant. I am a Syrian from Latakia... A Christian friend of mine from Damascus told me that some of the His grandfather’s relatives immigrated to Colombia about 100 years ago and settled there.. Today this family is one of the most important families in Colombia...... I have other friends from Damascus, Homs, Tartous, Aleppo, Hama, and Latakia. Their relatives immigrated to other countries such as Ecuador, Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Venezuela, and Canada. And Australia... And I can say that the number of Syrian expatriates around the world is greater than the population of Syria.... Does any of the readers of my comment have Syrian origin? 😊
Lebanese Christian Melkite here , I hope all in Lebanon beings Sunni, Shia , Druze, Maronite , orthodox, Melkite etc can all live in peace together , sure we can have our debates and rivalries , but we should never resort to Violence ever again ….

Hi first of all thank you for this kind of a deep analyses of this theme. I am a third year student at the university and for my graduation academic research theme is the the ethno-political evolution of lebanon. Can you share the list of the research papers that yoy relied upon. I know it won't be one or two books and bunch of articles. But I want relevant and analytical sources. So could you do me a favour and share at least share the names of some of the sources that you used? It would have been great if you agree to that. Thank you for your attention beforehand.
As an Egyptian Muslim, I believe that we should strengthen our ties with the Christians, Syria and Lebanon are our examples as Arabs that we will not let a foreigner get between ourselves,

Thank you!
Great video as always
Very interesting never always wanted know about this history great work
Glad to hear it Shawn!
In Brazil Christian Lebanese ihas 13 million people . There are more Lebanese in Brazil than in Lebanon.
That's not true. The embassy exaggerates the number for some reason but Brazil only received 200 thousand arab immigrants ever, less than japanese (and not all were lebanese although more than 95% Christian). So there's no way there's more arabs than japanese. Plus, polls from IBGE show 1m estimated arab descendants. Which is consistent with immigration numbers.
I don't know why brazilians always exaggerate the size of every diaspora but with arabs it gets ridiculous

No wonder all protestants are converting to islam .
This has nothing to do with Islam as a religion it’s culture of the region. Arab Christians live in similar ways as our Arab Muslim neighbours.

Awww you like the part were they were hunting down lebanese christians?? Shame on you calling y9urself protestan
Lots of places had these thoughts and lots of places have ended up like Lebanon.
Ah, the enduring concept of religion. We, as humans, have collectively constructed a system of beliefs, crafted by our own hands, which has often divided us into distinct groups, leading to conflicts and even violence. It's a reflection of our paradoxical nature as intelligent beings.
Great video. Most do not realize that a couple of centuries ago, the Christian population (all sects combined) of the Lebanon region was only 15%, higher in Mount Lebanon proper. After the events in Damascus, a lot of Syrian Christians migrated into the Lebanese mountain area, and combined with a boom of birthrates, Christians rose very quickly into becoming 50% of the entire Lebanon region, not just the Mountain. Maronites have always operated similarly to Druze, in that both see themselves as rare ethno-religious tribes that belong in the isolated Mountain. Unlike the Orthodox who share a united identity with other Arabs, especially other Shami Orthodox, the Maronites have always acted as a tribe. Even when Lebanon was formed by the French, the patriarchs chose Shi'a-majority countryland and Sunni port cities over the Orthodox Christian Wadi al-Nasara just to the north in Syria, as the patriarchs did not want the Orthodox to be the majority of the land, but would rather see Maronites as the elites of a mixed land.

I belong to the Lebanese Forces , aka the Maronite militant group. Unfortunately soon Lebanon will become majority Syrian and Palestinian and Muslim. It sucks, we lost the civil war and have moved from 75% Christian to now 35% and still decreasing since emigration and illegal immigrants. Rich / middle class Lebanese people are leaving , and of course the majority of people who aren’t poor are Christians (Muslims are considerably poorer on average).

Excellent knowledge, right & right!
Is there any affiliation between the Maronite and Chaldean Catholic Churches? Any shared history or interaction between the two?
Of course.
Both are ethnoreligious communities that adhere to the syriac liturgy, speak the syriac language and hold the syriac identity (although there are arabs among Maronites).
Both would be considered as sister churches.
All of us Syriac people, whether from Lebanon or Palestine, Syria or Iraq, Turkey or Persia and even India (Malabar), whether Catholic or Orthodox…we all share the Syriac faith, recite in one common language of prayer and hold our identity dearly.
Lol ofcourse u clowns also think pope told bush to bombb middle east stfu and quit making bs theories
1 _ Race :
.. Maronites are phoenician
.. Chaldeans , Syriacs and Assyrians are Mesopotamian
2 _ Language : each has their own dialect of Syriac/Aramaic (because aramaic became the official language of the Levant in the 3rd century BC and replaced the original languages)
3 _ Roum , also phoenicians but they follow Greek/Byzantine Orthodoxy , a group later split and followed catholicsm
4 _ Arab Christians Ghassanids and Lakhmids were eradicated by the muslim armies and their survivors dispersed and absorbed into other ethnic christian groups
@@vivekaugustine9583 My brother, the jinn, loves you because you speak the Syriac language, and this is strange
the maronites are also catholic and of assyrian origin, but the maronites are arab christians or arabized assyrians, chaldean catholics kept the assyrian identity but as religion go they are the exact same just dif language in daily service

We learn nothing from history. People kerp saying learn it lest we repeat, but we still havnt thrown religion in the garbage. We will continue fighting over gods that dont exist
Don’t try to separate us brothers similar in history, culture, food and natural beauty by religion and try to divide us, we will always be brothers who share the same history and culture 🇸🇾❤️🇱🇧
Your kind started killing Christian's for something s*** happening in lebanon
Tbere was never peace after islam came in 7th century there is always conflict due to culture and religion always till now
Lol what?
Because the roman and Persians were throwing flowers at each others in that region before Islam
Or the Greeks and roman or Greeks and Persians or Babylonia and Assyrians lol 😂
What a clown you people are.
im a west African revert Muslim thats part Lebanese through my dads side. I believe the patriarch of the family was a Christian by the name of Nahas Al Koukry, my great grandma (whos still alive) has a picture of him still. I wonder if the reason I'm even alive is because he left Lebanon due to these conflicts? He would have been a grown man in the early 1900s. Its bizarre how destiny works
Please visit Lebanon 🇱🇧 you will really enjoy it
@@mohamaddandachi4153 its been my dream:)

Please do a video on the so called Egyptian industrialization next and why it failed.
It was successful at first, but Muhammad Ali's successors were dumbos and closed all the factories
0:41 ain’t no way that person was smoking a argile during an important matter 😂
it was not a religious war but kore national/ideological war. lebanese nationalists vs palestinians and communists. it just so happens most muslims aligned with the palestinian/communists and most christians were nationalists altho there were muslims on the side of nationalists are christians on the side of commies/PLO
Exactly
Mismanagement of Levant caused by forced arabization in levant, mesopotamia Iraq and Egypt which aren't araps region
Roots ofc arabization who caused that. Lebanon isn't arap country
@@physicspectrum16fix your problems instead of blaming it on arabs. You pea brain
I don't know, man, Christian militia carving crosses into the corpses of their victims definitely puts it a step beyond "nationalism"
You can pull out any religion from them and sort them into Team Pokemon Blue and Team Pokemon Red. They'll still fight.
Even the ones who aren't religious kill; in fact, the secular countries like the US and UK and so on invade and fight more than anyone else on the planet.
Beautiful paintings
Could u make video about the history of the alawaits?
Lebanese orthodox are descended from Greeks ! Love Lebanon 🇱🇧🇬🇷
Not at all lmaoo they are descendants of the Ghassanids who are ethically Arabs.
And phoenicians
@@lovo430 a blend of Arabs Phoenicians and Greeks actually
Great video and totally correct information
I’m glad you mentioned that the Christian Maronites started the war in 1860 and got totally defeated with 10’s of thousands killed by the outnumbered Druze.
You should have also mentioned that the Druze ruled over all Lebanon and some parts of Syria for 400 years.
No different to there aggression on the Druze during the civil war in the 80’s where they lost their homes and dignity.
The druze butcherd the christian's scumbag and christian's built Lebanon
The druze sided with Palestinian's against the own countrymen you liar
El Jazairi stopped you scumbag's trying to massacre christian's you coward's
the druze are going extinct😂😂
@@lilrico9561 really strong statement
Idiot
An excellent presentation In content and history: the Arab needs to learn that they have intrinsic cracks well before the establishment of Israel
yeah, those cracks only showed up in 1850s when westernization of some societies here alongside with ideologies that serves them in preparation to take down the sultanate ruling system what a coincidence.
Love your videos 👍 🇮🇪

Ok so I know this sounds insane but I might actually be related to Tanyus Shahin/Chahine, I need to follow up on this asking some distant relatives some stuff, but it wouldn't surprise me if the Chahines in Ghalboun were related to the ones in Rayfoun. I don't really know much about our history, my great-grandpa fled here to Brazil around 1910, he was a communist, apparently he was sworn to death there or something like that, he changed his surname from Chahine to Féres from his patronymic, ibn Faris.

Most commentators on this page are hypocrites.
The muslims destroyed Lebanbon thats why i support Israel
Dishonest, false, and supremist. It was carved out by the French to have a country w/ a significant Christian population. Demographically, they were never the majority. This is a myth-and you can read abt it in historical accounts. You have no self-respect fo come here and post commentary when you obviously don't read. As an adult, why would you repeat rehearsed points? What really happened is the French-installed Maronite Catholic elite were corrupt and channeling money to their areas. Did you read about the Sidon fisherman and how they wanted to control the industry and keep the Muslims in poverty? How, according to the UC Berkely archives, "amid the glistening buildings were the Muslim poor"? Or how their leaders spoke w/ outright divisive rhetoric, mocking Muslims and their areas? So, my question to you is this: why are you commenting w/ out looking at context first? Why the supremist views when you're a human being, not God or a saint (were you ordained by the Church?)? Please humble yourself and read before posting next time.
How is the alliance between the Christian Lebanese and the Palestinian refugees against Israel viewed in retrospect by the Lebanese?
That's why religion matters. I just can't stand people who cry about ignoring group identities.
I wish more Muslims would convert to Christianity ✝️
lol he was a druze with a Muslim background, its like a mormon with a christian background, basically no christian accepts mormons as christian and no Muslim accept Druze as Muslim.
also, for every 1 ignorant "muslim" who might convert to christianity, probably 100 christians revert to Islam!
There are but most of them in secret since in Islam apostasy is pu ishabled by death.
Punishable*
no Astagfirllah , islam is the truth and the only monotheistic while christianity is pagan trinity .
@@sameinbari8092 Orthodox Christianity is the ONLY TRUE monotheistic religion.
To confuse matters more, there are Christian Palestinians who go back to the birth of Christianity. In fact the oldest Christian community in the World.
Not true. Palestinianism was invented by Russia. "Jesus is a Palestinian" the same way the Nazis claimed Jesus was German...to displace Jews and rob their identity.
Jesus was Jewish. Not Arab.
The jews (canaanite , israelites ) almost all of them became christians during the Byzantine era ... palestinian christians are the only True Natives left there , sadly the muslim invaders forced the arabic identity and language on them
They weren't Palestinians. The Palestinian identity and name didn't exist back then. It came a century later. Those were the people of Judea at the time.
@@nightprowler6336 true . muslim palestinians are a mix of arab tribes who settled there after the 7ty century arabian invasion of the levant ..
The local population of the coast line of israel lebanon syria were pagan canaanites/phoenician (gentiles) , jewish israelites and greek-roman authorities .. all gentiles converted but not all the jews yes , Jesus and his apostles did gather a large following of jews
My dna suggests that my 2nd or 3rd or 4th paternal great grandfather moved to sicily from lebanon around the time of this massacre, but i dont know if they were lebanese muslim or Maronite 😕
