The most comprehensive video on the Parthian Empire I've seen on here. Pronunciation of some of the names are off but thats a small price to play for this kind of content. The perfect thing to go with my new Parthia campaign in Total War Rome 2.

Excellent ! This is by far the best and the most authentic documentary about Parthians I've seen on UA-cam. Great job !
Nicely made video with good narration thank you Mehrdad the first (Mithridates I) was a great king for us Iranians he caused a resurgence of Persian empire
Thank you for watching!
The Parthians weren’t Persian to begin with, they were persianized
@@karsentube13yt Fun fact, all the houses of the royal Parthian houses claimed ancestry from Cyrus the great, Achaemenid Persians and their goal was to resurrect the Achaemenid Persian borders.

@Drone Time most Persians today dont even call themselves Persians commonly, they go by cities usually.
Your channel is amazing! I am fascinated by Iranian history. Keep blessing us with new contents.
Magnificent
The best I've ever watched from Parthians.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the story of Parthia. There is precious little material on Parthia and Sasanid Iran, so I am glad you had chosen to make these videos.
And I thank you for watching :)
Да но вте времена это греки воуют между собой
Incredible comprehensive work as always on the history of the Parthian Empire. As only Yore History could do!🥇👑
Thanks for watching Jack!
Epic, thank you m8! :)
Fantastic video. Thanks for making this. I learned many new things. Looking forward to your other videos
Keep the lessons coming.
Love it.
Thank you for such a detailed and great documentary about Parthia, I just ate the whole thing like granny' cupcake. You deserve to be up there with other big history channels on YT. Elegant narration and Storytelling as well, your voice doesn't get boring. I just downloaded your video and will keep coming back to it for information. God Bless
Great upload once again 👏 bravo
This was a great video. I thoroughly enjoy your vids
Man your videos r incredible with level of detail, keep up the good work
Thanks...have had a bit of a hiatus but working on next episodes now. Will be up shortly thanks for watching!
This is the best account of the Battle of Carhhae that I've ever heard! I think you did a great job of contextualizing each side and its great to hear how the battle fit into the political landscape of the Parthians. I never understood why Surena was killed but it makes a lot of sense with how unstable the top position was at the time. Damn shame that guy missed out on a crazy career.
He should've marched to the capital and taken the throne by force. The Surenian dynasty would've been a force to be reckoned with...
@@hisholiness4537 Scythians will kill this man
@@hisholiness4537 I feel this way about Hannibal and Carthage. The war was never gonna be won in Italy. He needed to hold onto Spain and lead the charge on Sicily and the best way to do that would have been a deliberate march on Carthage and strong arming his position as supreme commander of all military resources. Patience in general I think would have given him more options. He kinda just rushes to Italy after Saguntum and then he was stuck there. Even just ferrying his army to Sicily after Cannae could have swung the war even greater. The lesson to learn for future conquerors is that loyalty only matters if it benefits both parties. If you have the means to seize control, a justifiable reason to march against your state, and the will to carry that burden, to me there's no consideration. Hesitation is defeat.
@@hisholiness4537 Surena had something called loyalty
Which Orodes II didn't deserve
And that would've been considered usurpation and very dangerous for the dynasty that had done so
Sure house of Suren was famous and gained great victories but usurping the throne was never easy
And the people weren't unsatisfied with Orodes rule
Even when Surena was executed, other 6 noble houses didn't do anything
The Sassanid general, Shahrbaraz, is a good example
Even with all those great victories in battles and years of service, he lasted only for 40 DAYS after usurping the throne of Iran and was assassinated by other nobles
@@geordiejones5618 You misread the historical facts.. Hannibal could have executed a more passive warfare focusing on Sicily if it was the first punic war but it was the second and Carthago did not have a relevant fleet anymore. If Hannibal focuses on Sicily Rome sails to Carthago and destroys his home, blocks the trade income they so much need. Hannibal understood the only valid consequence out of that in marching on Rome. His downfall was that Rome had a superior way of governing and instilled loyalty into it's allies that was not breakable.
I just watched this. Amazing work! Thank you. I specially loved the introductory scripts which really sets the right mood for the story.
Thanks Saeed. Any other history you would like to see in the future covered?
@@YoreHistory I haven't seen alot om Sassanid Empire. There are scattered episodes by other channels here and there. But there are no solid documentary. However, I understand Sassanid takes way more work as there are way more records available comparing with Parthians. Is there a way we can support your channel?
@@saeedpakiari7446 You can do any of the following :)
- Comment, like and watch episodes that interest you
or
- Share video with people you think may enjoy it
- Patreon...link is on About tab of channel homepage
Cheers! As for length yes will be a lot more involved but I plan on doing lengthier videos...first one of each new series takes the longest but then shouldn't be too long as I will have maps etc made that hopefully don't change too much too quickly!
Fantastic documentary, Yore! (just worked out the pun on Yore name..I like it!) Great pacing to this, methodical and clear. I like in particular the images you have sourced. The way you have displayed them is a serious inspiration to me. I will be looking to find some of these and use them in forthcoming artistic projects. To me, this period of history has always been vague and I feel like an archaeologist unearthing an important find. It feels like I have found a serious piece of the puzzle that is our collective history and I haven't finished watching it yet! Bravo, Sir... Many, Many Thanks
Excellent work on a great empire.
Bravo.
Excellent in-depth presentation with a good cadence and pleasing visuals. As a historian with a guilty pleasure for Iranic history, Subscribed.
Cheers the TheShah, you may be interested to know I will be release the first episode of a new series dealing with the Sassanian Empire later today. Thanks for watching!
very well made. thanks!
One of the best history channel ever
Good work
Hmmm
Just beautiful! Thank you
Such a beautifully & rarely made documentary! Thank you
Anyone think it coincidental that three of the four great Eurasian Empires of the time, faced turmoil at about the same time? The fall of the Parthian Empire, Rome's Crisis of the Third Century and the fall of the Han Dynasty all happened within a few decades of each other.
426mak It was the age of religious empires rises.rise of theocratic States.
@@aradsstates9584 Really? But Christian Rome was was still a long way off and China never became a Theocratic state. how did you come to that conclusion?
426mak according to William Durant (the story of civilization: age of faith )this revolution(religion dominant as political power) started with Sassanids and it affected the Roman state but I have no idea for China, I comment on it to see actually what is your point of view for saying that actually(your comment)!
@@aradsstates9584 My original comment was just an observation I found interesting, my reply to yours was genuine curiosity. Thanks for the reading reference, I'll check it out when I have time. PS are you sure you got the period right? Sassanid Persia emerged after the Crisis of the Third Century didn't it?
426mak no actually they were at the same time.
I'm a curious person just like you
I'm glad for your comment its interesting, cheers.
Your presentation keeps improving. Also your Parthian Series are the best.
Thanks and appreciate you watching!
Brilliant as always thank you so much.
Thanks Skip! Just posted episode 1 of the new Sassanid Series as well. Cheers and thanks for watching!

I should really thank you for trying to represent unbiased Iranian history as much as possible.
Sorry for the late reply. Thank you!
Thank you so much for your lovely videos
Those Mega Episodes are awesome. Nice to learn about ancient Iranians tribes.
Thanks just on a forced vacation but will be back with new content in about a week. Cheers!
Great video. Thank you
Cheers. Sassanid series starting next week.
NOTE: This is a compilation mega episode of parts 1 through 8 and clocks in at 2 hours. For those new to the channel who want to see it all in one spot or those just starting and don't want to bother with the play list.
WILL UPDATE WITH TIMESTAMPS SHORTLY.
UPDATE: We discuss next episodes in Community tab but basically Ottoman Empire part 1 is next then Sassanid Empire part 1.
Don’t worry I did The timestamps for you
Holy smokes José! 2 hours! :D (already watch the individual episodes, but hey, you need a thumb up and comment for UA-cam to cover "The Rise And Fall of Yore history 2018-2046")

@@XtReMz98 Haha ya me too and one day think memes WILL be history...i mean some kind of already are...anyone remember "Techno Viking"!?
Damn man you know how to narrate so that I absorb all the information. Monotone is boring but some people overuse tone while your form of narration is in the sweet spot somewhere in the middle. Great pace too, it’s hard to gather all the information when the presenter speaks too quickly. First time coming across this channel definitely subbed now.
Thanks so much Shabukmed. It helps when you are passionate about the history of the region as I am :) Happy you found the channel though. Cheers!
For real, he's right. It pours right into the mind. Well done!
Excellent video. Well explained.
Praise Mithra and the Parthian Pahlavans, the true horselords and first knights. A true brotherhood with a unique warrior culture that made Eranshahr a world power that rivaled Rome and kept it so for almost a thousand years.
They were real men, and how I long everyday to be like them...
I can tell by your Profile Picture you're a fan of the old Iranian empires. Me too brother. Praise Mithra! Ahura Mazda protect us!
@@liammagner7614 where are you from ? why mithra and not mohammed?
@@Beatsbeebur Mohammed is not the perofet for the real Iranians.
@@masoud03 🙏🏻
@@liammagner7614 If you are interested in the real history of Iran, then you should look up the Scythians, because they are of great importance in all areas (religious, imperial, military). Other lines are misleading regarding the reality.
For example, the Seleukid Empire was defeated by the Scythians, followed by the enormous media (Mada) empire, the mother of the great Kurus, the daughter of the recent Medic king, and when he attacks the Scythians.530, because after the Scythian relatives, the King of the Scythians he wants to be, then he goes to war and dies. The whole world at that time was the family war of the Scythians, which is presented differently today.
Love this. Fascinating history, presented by someone with passion. Wish I had this education in public school
Thanks for the kind words, Christian, and thanks for watching!

Thanks for dropping by!
Thank you very much for this extraordinary comprehensive documentary on a particular part of Iranian history.
Me as a person, who is half Iranian and half German has been strongly interested in the ancient history of the near and middle east in particular Iran.
I am grateful for having found this documentary on the partian empire, which gives detailed information about this time, the conflicts, the reigning kings and what they achieved.
It provides much more than a superficial description of an era.
I appreciate the vivid illustration and context about this period I've been looking for so long.
Let me congratulate you for your successful presentation !
My dear friend do not believe in what you read these all have been done past few centuries when average person did not believe in reading and writing specially Ottomans Turks and Turks families have ruled AR- ATTA ( iran) have brought in farsi those people that read and write farsi they have had done it in their own version of history with the time they have modified it where it is now ! Turks have ruled the empires fars gets the credit ..
@@eddieonsorudi5052 turks came to iran in the 11th century (Seljuks). They established several islamic empires. At the time of the Parthians noone knew anything about Turks.
@@antidweller6373 really ?? Who has thought you all that to you ? Slaves ( ar-yans) came over and they took over in 1936 and they established 10000 years AR-YANA history !!! Gezel Osen by Ormieh is over 6000 years old river Fars have changed to the Zerine a Rood .
AR- DA -BIL city with over 5000 years old name !
Gazwin . Is after Gaz daughter of Ar-yage or Afrasibe according Fear dosie ..
Ar Bil city with over 5000 years old name '
Tramiz or Tarbiz ( fars has made it Tabriz) is over 4000 years old name
lets Talk about the tribes !
Gezel But two bailirlks one by orimieh an other one by the Parsua or Pars
MADAY , MADA , PARMUSH , XARXAR . KISE -SUE SILBER . ARAPHA ..... over 50 tribes just in today's Iran . Kurds was brought in by MADA from Khrasub and Fars was small tribe that they had settled in southern of occupied ELAM by Assyrians ..
Do you know why they used to call our country AR-ATTA for over 6000 years because AR -ATTA MEANS my fathers land . Tribes used to moved out centuries later some used returned back to their fathers land ( ar -atta ) So you picked up one returning tribe history and you have related 600 million Turks history exists in the world to the them . Are not you a fucking a liar fars !!
QUTE ELIE or according you fars qutian empire in 2700 BC established new empire ..
Turck came in power after Qute ELI then Assyrians wars started with Turk tribes ..
Assyrians have written this history if Assyrians did not write it I would settle down to the ALTYA theory . which it dose not answer the questions ..
Turks were in middle east before gods walked on earth .. western policy have been to take out turks from history books .. Turkey did not read Ottoman history for 100 years until 2016 !!!!
@@antidweller6373 who the hell Patians were and how did they became Turks ! You are a local !
@@eddieonsorudi5052 hahahahah😂😂😂 read some history books instead of your fairytales from 1001 night approved by erdogan. You guy are worlwide known for stealing everyone's history : Scythians, Sumerians, Etruscans, native Americans😘😘
Fun fact, all the houses of the royal Parthian houses claimed ancestry from Cyrus the great, Achaemenid Persians and their goal was to resurrect the Achaemenid Persian borders.
It is also interesting that his grandfather was the last Media (Mada) Scythian king.
Were that Parthians Iranians from present day Iran, or were they Iranians from present day Tajikistan?
@@AK-fe1lu Thet were Iranians. Don't be jealous bro, and Scythians are also Iranians. Dude you sound jealous in your comments, and after 2 years not one person liked your comment. Some people can't handle the fact Iranians have such great empires, kings, scholars, etc. They always try to take it away from them.
@@agostocobain2729 I don't want to upset you, but what you're talking about is just wishful thinking. As for Iran, a country of many nationalities, this is the reality. As for me, I belong to a group of people you call Scythians, I speak that language, and I realized that it has nothing to do with you, your history is a gigantic lie, I can prove it! For example, Winston Churchill invented Iraq while smoking a cigar. So much for the history of the region. Iraqi Foreign Minister Tareq Aziz asserted that the Iraqi people today have nothing to do with Mesopotamia. If you really want to know who the Scythians are, ask the Iranian man who practices horse bowman, he knows!
@@agostocobain2729 Ive heard they came from North Iran or possibly central asia like all Iranians in the mena region

hey Yore History, I gotta say that I've really missed this channel. About a month ago my smart phone was accidentally destroyed and for the last few weeks my internet consumption has been quite limited. Hopefully today though I will be able to binge a bit. Anyways i was just wanting to say that this is a channel that I've actually missed binging, Cheers Amigo.
Cheers man, glad to have you back :) Have a new episode within the hour and more after that :) Cheers!
@@YoreHistory that's awesome Bro. I had started watching this Parthian Empire video, but then I got called into work. Luckily for me though, I didn't have to go to the States, so I'll be able to binge for a while tonight. I'm glad to see that you haven't been idle, (but I'm not surprised, haha). I also just wanted to say that I had tried being a Patreon to your Channel a few months back, but I'm pretty sure that the payment didn't go through. What had happened was, I had actually gotten my identity stolen (i.e. bank account info). Apparently, One should be very careful when using certain ATMs in the U.S.A. (although probably in Canada too). So I've actually wanted to become an actual paying Patreon, but these last couple months I've been fairly unlucky with technology My Friend, hahaha. But I know that Yore not offended if it takes me a bit to figure it out again, i mean shit I purposefully reverted back to a flip phone recently, hahaha. It's easier for me to manage a flip phone I think.
I love the maps!!🎉

Never knew anything about the history of the Parthians or the beginnings of the Sassanid Empire. Interesting!
@Yore History Great video! I really like how you had the dates in the top left of the screen throughout the first half of the video. Is there any chance that you would add that to the second half of the video? Thank you for your hard work!
Hi Alan,
I resorted to mostly reading out the dates in those last videos but have returned to it with the new series (Ottoman/Sassanian). However, its not possible to retroactively go back and add it to an old video. Once it's up, UA-cam doesn't allow you to make any additional changes other than trimming.
@@YoreHistory Ok, understood. Have you thought about posting it to additional platforms? They might allow updates.
@@alanbutler7712 I haven't no. I use Facebook and Twitter to promote the channel here but don't post anywhere else :( I mention the date everytime a year is different in the later ones but I know what you mean it was nice for the visual and is why i have gone back to it.
Thank you
Please keep up the history.

Unfortunately, it is not true. Their history is full of lie and fake histories and this fake history make, Iranian minorities like Persian people, a racist nation and they think they are the best and GOD creat them to be boss for the world but if you look at them today, you will not see anything, that you read in their history.
Thises histories mostly made up by freemasons to defeat Turkish people inside Iran, who had great empires in Iran over 2500. This meaning Iran is originally belong to the Turkish nation not Persian and Persian still are a minority in Iran.

Luv these ancient history tutorials.But,,wish they add modern geographic names wen describing the land this history took place
First thanks for watching and commenting Danya. As for the second portion of your comment. It is always tough deciding on how to present it. I like to present (keeps it interesting for me) it as a time travel piece. IE you are travelling to this time period to experience things as closely as I can make them to how they were recorded. Unfortunately that means i may label a sea differently and I realize not everyone is as good with geography or history as me or wants to do the research after. What I can do is add that to the descriptions of future videos. For example, this series take place in what is now: Mostly Iran, parts of Iraq, Syria, Armenia, Italy, Israel and Egypt.
long live persia and persian people
Nice to see that Kermit the frog has taken an interest in history! In all seriousness, it’s great to see history from the Persian perspective, way to go!

parthian empire, the empire that fought rome to a stalemate and manage to crush rome ambition in the east, sad that it is hardly study in western academics, its always about hannibal, the gauls and the germans when it comes to rome enemies in western universities.
