In case you guys were wondering if these documentaries were made by a team of people, or if I had hired narrators or other team members as the channel has grown - there's a sneaky mistake thrown in this video that shows I still am just one person doing all of the researching, writing, narrating and producing, and only human 😄
Thanks for watching guys! Please don’t forget to like and subscribe and let me know what you’d like to see covered in the future in the comments!
We got you.
Hi HT, I would like to see what happened to the Anglo Saxon exiles post 1066 who became the Bulk of the Varangian Guard, I know they were rewarded for good service with lands on the NE Coast of the Black Sea but they kind of disappear from History after that, Maybe a stupid and obvious question, But I'm curious if they were the Founders of Georgia? Due to both England and Georgia having the George Cross Flag
Done that! Excellent work .
History Time I have a big wiener
it cool! Great work on this series I have learned so much. I never before knew about the events from the Goth perspective!
Ridiculously good quality videos 👍 better than tv documentaries
Thanks Ryan appreciate the comment
Most welcome 👍
Couldn't agree more. Had to shut ads down as if it was a low quaity video though, as I found myself unable to follow your (superb) narative when it was constantly interrupted by ads.
@@TukozAki if you want to watch documentaries get premium you wont have commercials dont blaim the content creators
@@Ride2Vibe Sorry for answering so late. I'm fine with letting ads show up, to support hard work / well done content. Unless there's so much of them it becomes impossible to watch the work itself. Which ultimately deserves both the content audience and creators. I.e. kind of shooting yoursef in the foot. Also I do support a few independant content creators via paid subscription or Patreon yes, not via YT "Premium", "Superbium" or "Megatherium" so long as Google is first and foremost an ads company.
This is better than any documentary on tv, the narration, the structuring, the visual. You guys are absolutely amazing.
It'll be even better when an elder who descends from the people explains the stories in more depth than this 😊
@@tama-a-tumatauengahiku3647 excuse me lmao
11:11 Roman historian: "This is bad year. It shall forever be known as TITLE TEXT HERE." Never speak of this year again.
Yes, it surely was the worst of times...
TITLE TEXT HERE....... doesn't really roll off the tongue so i don't think it will be spoken of much.
We shall never speak of that year ..
Alaaf and than comes the King Druid. Älpha of Elf. I am Omega of all ages and times. Tuath Dé reincarne-vale by The North Star. Shiny beacon of (H)ome.
yeah, see, we are just going to act like this whole dark age thing didn't happen. What year should we tell people it is?
Fantastic find! At 78, my dream of knowledge of an
ancient history education
is here in a "crash course"!
Thank you!
My dude, two uploads within the span of less than a week, thank you!
Thanks for watching Nathan!
Thank you for watching!
Who the foook are you?@samkodi7465
I just listened to part one and two through podcast form. Was honestly shocked how a small channel could put out such quality content. Keep up the good work, you will be up there with the greats one day.
So true. This Chanel is amazing! 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
This is such a fantastic piece, I had no idea we knew so much information about the movement of the German tribes during this period of Roman decline and hun advancement. Thanks for spending so much time on it.
Absolutely my favorite channel on UA-cam. Just wanted to offer my thanks and appreciation. Genuinely informative and interesting, as well as being approachable to people of various levels of education. If I weren't another broke student, I would gladly contribute regularly. As it is, when finances allow, I do what I can, and I encourage others to do the same.
Cheers!
same here
Me: I miss History Channel
UA-cam: Hey we got this channel you might like
Me: *not disappointed*
This was fantastic. Watched every minute of this well researched and put together.
I've been waiting for this !!!
Thanks for watching!
History Time where is #3
Such a great documentary with great visuals! This is high quality and in depth analysis, as a history student I love this!
If I may give one bit of advice, maybe put the volume of your voice a liiiiiitle higher, it might sound a bit better :D
Keep up the amazing work, I will spread your videos around faculty and friends :)
Just found this channel, and I've spent 2 hours binging. Great job
looking forward to the part 3 :)
Your videos are brilliant! Many thanks!
Yes!!! Awesome video. I was so excited when I woke up and saw this notification!
Thanks Rob glad you like it
So glad to see this notification today! Great video, as usual!
These are so interesting. I never knew anything
about it. Thank you for creating this series.
Superb this - well done.
Thanks very much Alfredo appreciate it
Really love your channel man it's it's perfect background to a total war playthrough haha
Good job on the video. I just love history
EXCELLENT DOCUMENTARY. THANK YOU SO MUCH
Lovin' your work.
your videos are the perfect companion to a Crusader Kings 2 run, cheers!
Damn good work man.
2 years later and the fans of History Time wait for Theodosius follow up, maybe one day
One day absolutely. This Fall of Rome series will likely take me a decade or more. It’s a marathon not a sprint
We all wait expectantly for the day it continues!
History time is my favorite channel to consume history, the narrator has a calming voice and this channel has many videos in which I have an interest in, the vikings, the many Germanic tribes, england before, during and after Rome. Please continue to make videos and I will continue to watch them.
Wife and I love your videos! So in depth & clearly much research done. I applaud you brother. Hard to imagine youre a one man band! Excellent work! Big thanks!
That was an epic vid, great way to start my Sunday
Thanks very much appreciate it
Tq for sharing your knowledge with such entertaining presentation
great work HT
Awesome storytelling as always. Thanks!
Thanks so much!
You had to put this up right as I'm studying for finals
Sorry about that...
History Time: unless Ryan was studying the year 375.
excellent video really great work
i just want to say that i love this channel
Thoroughly enjoyable documentary.
Very pleasant to listen to, as usual. Congratulations
This video and its first part are very interesting. Very nicely done.
p.s. The Huns' musical theme is very creepy and fitting
THank you! THis was very well done!!!!!
Thankyou!
Great as always!
Thanks very much really appreciate it
Just happened to be reading some history about this time period. Really helped to visualize what the Goths were up against with the Huns. The Romans were, predictably, so arrogant and made so many stupid mistakes. Over the centuries, people have pretty much stayed the same, unfortunately. Thank you for your narrative and upload.
It's such a fascinating topic. And much more on the way
Huns were a motley crew - Bulgars and Gyoks mixed with Tokarians, Alans, Sarmatians, Scythians, after 2c. Goths so at 4c. it was difficult to tell who is who.
Romans at that time where deeply corrupt they had no favors with god and got what they deserved.
Goths Huns Turks completely devastated the empire into non existence.
That is why all modern day nations have very strict laws against corruption not to let their nation fall like Rome did.
It seems that the logical approach would be to send a military mission maybe a Legion into Gothic lands as allies. Freinds Romans Country men we eaither beat the Hun over there or face him here
O B those laws are useless, we are as corrupt now as back then
Fabulous! Informative! High quality!
Brilliantly-made video!!!!
Another great video man
Thanks man!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE CONTINUE THE STORY!!! Excellent´so far
Nice video.
Thanx for helping to fill gaps in my historical overview.
Thanks for watching
great documentary
Dude I'm hooked on these movies you keep making, the Neolithic stuff blew my mind... I only stopped here for a minute though to comment and shout-out the Arrow graphics 😂 consider throwing them in a few random videos just for the hell it maybe?! Il be watching
Captivating! Thank you very much for this work.
This Richomeres Frankish guy seemed to have been quite a General to listen too. Erff Valens...
Me: ☹
*History time uploads a video*
Me: 😃
Hello,you did a nice job so far and the video quality is excellent!
Dont worry about the mistake we all make them daily!
the shadow here 3:53 is a true and accurate depiction of a recurve bow
I am here! Another History Time video. I thought you might have forgotten us.
Of course not!
This was really cool, thank you!!
Thanks very much
Undisputed king of UA-cam video, History Time!
Nothing more interesting than the history of our great continent.
So interesting.
It is indeed a fascinating time period
Im ready too start your new online video on the fall of rome i am 😁. Your stuff is pretty good mr narrator man.
Glad you like it!
Just in time for Iftar. Perfect
Thanks very much glad you like it
Great stuff @History Time, are you going to finish this series?
Thankx!
Great video, I'm fascinated by the Germanic tribes, as a Spaniard I'm interested in the Visigoths but I find the anglo-saxons even more interesting.
Great great video as always
Charles Yuditsky not really the vandals settled in North Africa not in Andalusia
I hear the kings of Spain claimed descent from the visigoths
@@MattieK09 They did as they had gothic ancestry or were half goths.
nice arrow animation
Fast becoming one of my favourite channels 👍
can you recommend any other awesome channels?
@@Ed-wm8dx baz battles and kings and generals are 2 great channels for historical events
@@roscosisco1276 will check em out cheers
This is quite difficult to follow but I'm enjoying it nonetheless. Do you plan to do any slavic related videos (specifically on the Polish kingdom pre-commonwealth)?
Goddamn it! It finished! Didn't even notice, so intense..
That bust you captioned as Ammianus is actually a bust of Constantine, nice pressentation though
The Alans wouldn't stop running until they got to France.
The vandals ran till they got to Africa lol
Love your historical content! And although I'm clearly not clever by noticing the error around 11:13 while we are at it....drop the hand drawn arrows on maps. They dont add much value if any and they look pretty terrible. With that said ...I truly enjoy your historical narratives...outstanding content and you have a great voice to compliment it. Also wanted to volunteer my help....I'd be happy to review any of your videos prior to posting to make sure small errors are not missed. Free of charge of course and it would be my pleasure to help. Let me know!
LOL at those cg arrows
That made my day
2 parts both very good, think we all ready for part 3 😜 come on
It is coming.
So damn good.
Thanks so much!
An episode on the roman fleet patrolling the saxon shore on south coast of britain in the time period you are concerned with. By the way my earlier comment on the felix expedition does not fit your time frame, but perhaps you could do it some other time. The commander of the felix expedition was aelius gallus.
I like how at 2:42, when you're supposed to be viewing the world at 375 BC, you see a modern car driving along the road.
That was the 375BC Wild Stallionus. Great breed of horse of that time, in terms of transport for gathering food of such🤣🤣
5:40 The Alans came back, though: in the west they integrated particularly with the Bretons (hence the horse archer on the Bayeux Tapestry), while to the east they produced a bloodline leading to Genghis Khan.
Can you provide a citation for the self sacrifice of Ermanaric? There is very little on the web regarding this. Nothing that speaks to him sacrificing himself. Thanks
Ammianus Marcellinus, Res Gestae XXXI - "He was struck with consternation at the violence of this sudden storm; for a long time he did his best to maintain a firm and continued stand, but since rumour gave wide currency to and exaggerated the horror of the impending dangers, he put an end to his fear of these great perils by a voluntary death."
Hector Osbert that’s a leap
Hi. Love your videos, they are GREAT! I have a side note commentary, Fritigern took over as ruler of the Thervigian Goths..(..)..I immediately heared/saw the resemblant of the ruler in Britain who invited the Saxons/Angels, Vorteigern...Is it a anglic/saxon version of his Celtic/Romano name...or was he of Germanic blood also? Fritigern...Vorteigern...pretty close languistic...
Chalex08 An interesting point! We’ll never know but perhaps Vortigern himself was a Britonised Germanic auxiliary who ‘went native’ becoming a part of the Romano-British elite. Guy Halsall talks about the possibility of the initial first wave of Saxons coming across to Britain back in the 370s and 380s to fight under the command of Magnus Maximus, so there is a decent enough amount of time for there to be a settled population of Romano-Britonsed Saxons established amongst the ruling classes of lowland Britain by the time their mainland brethren began crossing over into Britain in the mid 5th century. The entire period is extremely complicated and becomes even more so the more you think about it! Thanks for raising this thought provoking point. I’d highly
Recommene Worlds Of Arthur by Guy Halsall for many more interesting tid bits like this. Cheers!
Nice
Thankyou!
Wow, you actually plan 20 episodes for the fall of the Roman Empire? Highly ambitious 👌🏾
Didn’t happen 😞
@@trancevoyagesessionswere there just the 2, do you know?
Dude someone should make a movie of this stuff
Maybe the CIA "Operation Fritigern the refugee" ?
Is this the history of Rome bloke??? Not saying a bad thing absolutely love the history of Rome casts best cast going around for my insomnia swear this is his voice!! Love the docos keep em up aye
Andrew Sinnamon The History of Rome podcast? That’s guy who voices that is an American so nah not the same guy for sure
It's not no. Thanks for the comparison though.
Great
Thanks very much!
An episode on the roman expedition to arabia felix, now called yemen. I have heard they marched south along the wst coast of arabia , and were supplied by sea by the roman navy, did this really happen?
Yes.Ant it is not hard to read about it in primary sources all of which are easy to find online for free.
Narrated by a master storyteller
Very informative video. I have a question about the name Fritigern, could it possibly have similar roots to Kettigern?
Good observation
When is the next instalment out please??
*Cries* in Roman :´(
Epic.
Thankyou!
This channel is 10 times better than that propaganda you get on "kings & generals"
Does anyone know where part 3 is? I Need it 😂
All the while, Bauhaus plays in the background
The Goths are cousins of the Slavs who were only forming as a nation at their time. They fought and pushed each other around the world, and they still continue doing so. I see in this documentary a very good explanation of today's conflict between East and West. In fact, Goths never stopped coming back against the Slavs, and viceversa.
I like the prominence of maps.
Why history time ? Why do you such great videoes . But yes again you make an awesome . Well researched . But again. So hallo from Denmark I Can also link Denmark to history of the roman Empire . As tradition states that the cimbri (Who toghether with teutones fought the roman repuplic between 113 and 101 bce) came from northern Jutland . No one knows why the cimbri migrated South . Some theories talk famile or over population . But cimbri migrated South . And eventully they entered gaul and Spain . Where they raided . This brought them into conflict with the romans ... And after a series of battles . Where the cimbri and teutones defeated several roman armies . Their armies were finally defeated the roman consol Gaius Marius in 101 bce in northern Italy . But also the germanic thribe the herules is said have come from Scandinavia . According the gothic historian Jordanes, the herules came from modern southern sweden and the danish Island if Bornholm . They also migrated South and settled on Black sea coast. And in the year 261 . The herules with fleet attacked and raided Athens . Where they did huge damage to puplic buildings and agora . And the herules was among the tribes (like the goth ) that entered the roman Empire in third century and settled down ...
Thanks very much for the comment! Interesting
History Time you are very welcome sir
It is amazing that later it was Goths who considered themselves guardians of roman civilisation...
Respect to the Goths and their descendants👍🙏🏻
I dont know if i missed it but you did not mentioned that gothic people fought with huns, if you look into it you Will se that they where merceneries with diffrent people in their army
Maybe a little bit too melodramatic in style. But nowhere near the overly bombastic overly simplified crap of TV documentaries of the last 15 or so years. So big thumbs up.
And you don't hear many "according to" "apparently"or sources being mentioned in Hollywood documentaries.
Btw: does the word "Hunting" come from the Huns? Never thought of that.
The Romans and various tribes learned from each other. Empires are too often represented as conquering due to "being on top of their game" militarily, but the learning curve was experienced by both, and I note a historic and laudable defeat by Germans of Romans that insured they'd never return.😊
