16:49 "people who come up against Diocletian - they all seem to come to *_grisly ends!_* ..." True of Alexander the Macedonian in his last years too 🙈🙀😞 Even Aristotle's nephew got the chop! (They were outspoken in ancient Greece! ) Incidentally, I don't see the Alexander podcast on UA-cam. Am wondering if its here, somewhere ... lurking.
My grandma is Croatian & she thinks that Diocletian, the guy responsible for the largest & bloodiest official persecution of Christians in the Roman Empire, was a good Croatian Catholic boy. 😹
As a Croatian, I wished this was more to do with Croatia. The episode was informative but for this to be what you chose to talk about is a bit concerning
I'm Croatian, and my family is from Solin...family house is still in Solin. Accurate description of history, pre establishment of the Croatian Kingdom.
I wonder how Historians can resemble Croatians and Serbs with Roman Time.They know that they came in 4 Century. If the Illyicum Soldiers had an Ethnicity they are Albanians 🇦🇱, but British have a little bit Rasist Opinion about them
Marvelous episode. I love the explanation for the origins of the word traitor.
Great podcast!
ditto!

Going deep, going hard 😀

And that Magdeburg was a jolly good laugh, presumably.
Excellent episode. I think there is a mistake at the end: Constantine was the son of Constantius, not his brother.
About the Emperor Diocletian, late Roman Emperor.
Legends 👍
I would like a deeper dive on Croatia proper.... 🇭🇷
Saaaame
Diocletian would definitely like the ice cream sold in his palace. That’s one thing I do know
Incredible how you love to come on your holidays to us prasants from Croatia 😂😂😂

And my 88 yr old man still loves growing cabbage....he emigrated to Sydney, Australia back in 1966
Shoulda done Auralian he actually saved it from collapse diocletian just kept it going after
Yes love the late Empire, real shit show.
To be fair, people back then really didn't have a firm grasp of economics. That's a much more modern thing.
To be fair, there's still no such thing as having a firm grasp of economics. 😅

It's ridiculous that two adult, professional historians laugh idiotically at litter or poop jokes, like dumb teenagers.
THE CROATIAN SHIELD ALWAYS SAVE THE WESTERN WORLD
