Dude, i'm living in a 16 km isle in Greece and sometimes due to summer work, new shops and other stuff confuse me when i return home, plus in my first time abroad in England i was stunned by many things. Something like that would terrify a person if he appeared suddenly in a crowded city (even a panic attack). Add to that his different immunity system and the realisation that he propably lost all the people he knew in a blink. You think the creeped out guards of the Emperor would allow random dudes in camo costumes approach him, like a cult who wants to harm him ? Pillums would be thrown ! Things would be weird and violent, it's not even funny if you think of it. Higher chance of a better outcome if he appears alone in an isolated isle or a state in US like Montana and befriends a farmer or something (forgeting the germs).

E070 P.Srikrishna did you not watch the video? He literally said that the Romans were well aware that the Earth was a globe and predicted that there must be lands on the other side of the world to "balance out the globe". Their reasoning may have been faulty but their reaction would most likely be like "Oh there's all this extra land! Huh, that figures." - it would have simply confirmed suspicions that they already held.
BambiTrout I had not gotten to that part of the video I should’ve been more patient and made my comment after the video (duh!). I’ll delete my reply so my inbox isn’t filled with more corrections though.
Imagine the Romans learning of the rise of Prussia. They would probably be very impressed that such a relative small kingdom could built an army better disciplined than probably any other army in history including their own.

One day he accidentaly travels in time to modern Japan and it's fascinated with modern technology and everyday tools and that didn't exist in Ancient Rome. His goal it's to get back to his time and try to understand who were those people and what was that land where he went to. It's a fun and interesting reading! (Sorry about the lenghty comment 😅)

I wonder what Caesar would think when he found out that the lands that were formerly barbarians named their kings “Kaiser” and “Tsar”. He’s such a recognizable figure with countless things named after him and possibly more than a third of living people knowing his name. That would probably make him feel great.
Yeah. And that there are whole disciplines focusing on analyzing and learning new things about Roman empire and Caesar himself. Imagine - after over 2000 years you have more fans than there were people in your whole empire. Only Jesus can beat that I guess.
@@Zangetsu538 Neither because if you ask 100 average people on the street about Octavian and Caesar - I bet that more than half of them would recognize latter and Octavian's results would be much much lower. Also - how many "father-son" ruling duos can we truly call successful in their endeavors. In majority of cases in history son replacing great father destroys his creation and doesn't live up to his accomplishments. You really can't say that in Caesar-Octavian case.
13:28 That’s true, the Romans did know about China and called it “Sina” meaning the land of the silk. Some Romans got visitors from Chinese travellers, and some even visited China.
imagine if we got things wrong in the history books and some romans are just reading about themselves and being like “no, no it didn’t happen that way”
Much of what we know about Cesar comes from his own journals, so he would probably think "Wow, you guys bought this shit? I didn't even know if my contemporaries would." Cesar is expected to have exaggerated several "facts" and numbers and results to make himself look better.
I imagine some stories are biased. When wars were won it was the winners that wrote the history of the battle and they were likely to change it a bit in their favour, exaggerate maybe.
Rome: The Earth is round Middle ages: Hmm... no edit: okay people I get it, they mostly knew the earth was round, sorry my middle school social studies class failed to inform me about this
Leaving aside the technology aspect, I truly think that Christianity and the fact that out of all Rome's provinces, it was Brittania that would go on to become the next truly 'great' Empire after Rome and, in turn, give birth to the Unites States and the modern world.
I mean the new truly great empire was the Spanish Empire. They invent a lot of navigational apparels, improve the cartography science a lot, import the potato, the paprika, the tomato, the vanilla, the lima beans, peanuts, cocoa. They founded a lot of universities, hospitals and other industries in the first century of conquest. The SE "colonies" (they was not) are poor right now due to the creole corruption and injerence of USA. However, Chile and Costa Rica are in a better position than most. In Asia the Phillipines were part of Spain, but after independence their situation worsened. All empires commit attrocities, but some more than others. Always consult more than a source of information.
They’ll be amazed by computers “What’s this box for?” “It can do math faster than you can blink and simulate entire fictional worlds that you can play with and change”
Good joke but people pronounce it differently now. He would be interested to learn about the German "Kaiser" though. Everything changed when I learned that "C" was pronounced like "K" and "V" was pronounced "W" for the Romans. "Veni Vidi Vici" becomes "Weni Widi Wiki"
Caesar's salad has nothing to do with any Roman emperor, other than Gaius Julius' cognomen having become a title and a relatively popular first name, similar to how Charles the Great's name became synonymous with king's title among Slavs. The salad itself was invented in Tijuana in 1924 by an Italian chef, Cesare Cardini and first served at his restaurant 'Caesar's' which is currently located on Avenida Revolucion.
@@TheCyanSqueegee Isn't C in Vici pronounced like Ch? There must've been exceptions like in modern languages Edit. And as far as I'm aware V in Latin isn't pronounced like W in English, more like a shorter sound between English V and W Edit 2. Of course these are only assumptions, idk so much about Latin
@@niccolopaganini4268 I am no expert but as far as I know the "C" being pronounced as "Ch" is a modern Italian pronunciation and it was originally closer to our English "K". Also yes the "V" sound was not exactly like "W" but I thought that was probably the closest analogue in English

I imagine later emperors to be absolute fangirls to early emperors, cuz they were basically their idols. Ceasar would be probably extremely surprised of Augustus and probably even incredibly proud of him.
Im thinking of Augustus just alluding the act in passing recollecting how he defeated Antony and marches on to egypt to "deal" with Cleopatra. Then Caesar just stops him midway to ask WTF happened to Caearion
@@nothisispatrick4644 Caesarion was illegitimate though. He'd probably be more concerned about of his own children that survived (that Augustus knew of) or about Augustus's children.
There's also for instance Diocletian and Constantine. Well, Diocletian greatly persecuted Christians, and Constantine converted, or supposedly converted, to Christianity. Those Emperors generally speaking would probably be too busy fighting among themselves, over who's going to have power and authority over them and everyone. They, generally speaking, were very power hungry.
His ego would have gone to the heavens when he’s told many Germanic men would name themselves after him and try to be him(Kaiser and Tsar means Ceaser)

Some of the great issues we face today could be seen as trivial at best to the Romans, things they wouldn't even think twice about. It's clear their society held completely different values than us. They could have very valuable insights, but none of which we would listen or act upon.
To be honest once the emperors got over the shock of so many changes and new information I think they would feel pretty proud. While their empire did not last forever they would see that it lasted longer than any other empire and that we are very much influenced by them
If they were ever to get over the shock (they wouldn't), they would certainly be proud. Augustus Caesar is still to this day considered the greatest leader of all time. They, as leaders of the greatest Empire in the world, would feel personally responsible for the fact that modern civilization exists at all.
Can you imagine trying to explain to Roman's what vaccines are? I don't think they would be opposed to being immune to diseases that killed countless people from their time (unlike anti-vaxers) but just trying to explain why you need to stab them with glass thingys would be difficult.
Apparently vaccination was invented in the west in the 18th century. The old ‘rub infectious natter onto your wound’ kind. No idea how to do it for people who are, at the latest, more than a millennium before this development.

So would they come to the conclusion that those are shorter pants and still think many of us are barbaric?? Closest we could ask would be historians😪
Honestly i think its just as likely that they would be more interested in talking to eachother than learning about our time. Julius and augustus caesar would be borderline demigods to the other emperors
Imagine how proud Julius would be of his adopted son? He obviously saw something in the young kid but I think even Julius Caesar would be blown away by his accomplishments.
I think the dialogue between Aurelius and Constantine would be interesting. What would the largely secular/pantheistic Aurelius think of an emperor who is apart of some weird Jewish cult

Dude, i'm living in a 16 km isle in Greece and sometimes due to summer work, new shops and other stuff confuse me when i return home, plus in my first time abroad in England i was stunned by many things. Something like that would terrify a person if he appeared suddenly in a crowded city (even a panic attack). Add to that his different immunity system and the realisation that he propably lost all the people he knew in a blink. You think the creeped out guards of the Emperor would allow random dudes in camo costumes approach him, like a cult who wants to harm him ? Pillums would be thrown !

To be honest once the emperors got over the shock of so many changes and new information I think they would feel pretty proud. While their empire did not last forever they would see that it lasted longer than any other empire and that we are very much influenced by them
Also they left their names in history.
By some definitions, it never fell, it just dramatically changed over time
If they were ever to get over the shock (they wouldn't), they would certainly be proud. Augustus Caesar is still to this day considered the greatest leader of all time. They, as leaders of the greatest Empire in the world, would feel personally responsible for the fact that modern civilization exists at all.
Caeser would be smug as hell knowing his name was used as the highest title for 2000 years after his death
@@volkmardeadguy1557 yes I agree and even more knowing that even at this time few leaders can claim to have left the legacy he has
Thanks!
Thank you!
They would have to be vaccinated with lots of things quick
Plot twist: *They all die of covid-MMDCCLXXIII*
Janeen Phayne lol imagine
That's a lot of shots.
Can you imagine trying to explain to Roman's what vaccines are? I don't think they would be opposed to being immune to diseases that killed countless people from their time (unlike anti-vaxers) but just trying to explain why you need to stab them with glass thingys would be difficult.
Apparently vaccination was invented in the west in the 18th century. The old ‘rub infectious natter onto your wound’ kind. No idea how to do it for people who are, at the latest, more than a millennium before this development.

I want to see a sitcom with all 6 of these guys surviving modern society, living in an apartment as roommates, having jobs, going to social events and shopping. Be pretty funny
They even saw pants as barbaric, but that's super normal in Italy and in most places on earth. Kinda.
@@Ami-jc2oo Pants are an illusion and so is death.
@@Ami-jc2oo how would they think of shorts though?
@@harbour2118 Well shorts are still pants. But the romans in ancient times wore underwear in a style of shorts. (And the loincloth and something for breasts for women)
So would they see this and look down upon alot of modern societies?
But not all shorts are so short. So would they come to the conclusion that those are shorter pants and still think many of us are barbaric??
Closest we could ask would be historians😪
There is a anime simmilair to this principle, it's about Jesus and Buddha living in modern japan
Im imagining Ceaser crying, yelling knees on the floor in front of a Little Ceasers
Honestly i think its just as likely that they would be more interested in talking to eachother than learning about our time. Julius and augustus caesar would be borderline demigods to the other emperors
Imagine how proud Julius would be of his adopted son? He obviously saw something in the young kid but I think even Julius Caesar would be blown away by his accomplishments.
I think the dialogue between Aurelius and Constantine would be interesting. What would the largely secular/pantheistic Aurelius think of an emperor who is apart of some weird Jewish cult
@@swolejeezy2603 diocletian would be in the mix aswell
Absolutely good point. Except for Dio who deified himself and Constantine who deified some random Jew guy who is probably an invention.
@@pietrosavastano4641 - Julius would scold Octavian for not conquering Germany. Julius was much more of a warrior than Octavian.
Caesar: So you can call upon the gods to strike down your enemies.
Soldier: no it’s just a loser with a joystick

Caesar: ok so it not God and what it?
I could see the Romans grabbing a few books about their empire and making a run for the time portal after a while in an attempt to stop their empire's fall.
No wonder their empires survive long than they should be (should collapse during 3rd century crisis but didn't)
@The Nova renaissance we are assuming they get taught English or Italian.

Caesar watches the Kings & Generals series on his Gallic wars: "But we know in Caesar often exaggerated-" "I DID NOT" "- so his given numbers should be taken with a grain of salt."

@@jacksonbarrett5561 technically everything you consume is a poison by that logic
IIRC, some Romans to a degree knew that lead in wine was poisonous, even though most of the Roman populace didn't know. Those who did just either didn't care enough or couldn't change it.
Relatively, we didn't stop using that THAT long ago
@@TheMarmboy Well yes, everything is poisonous actually, even water. But you'll have to drink 6 liters of water at once to die of water poisoning which still wouldn't work because your body would just explode if you consume so much water at such high speed.

Imagine if the emperors and Caesar came to South Africa and note that one of the capitals is named "Pretoria" - a similar spelling and pronunciation of "Praetoria" and "Praetorian".
The city of Pretoria was named after Andries Pretorius, who took over from Piet Retief as leader of the Boers.
The name "Pretorius" means "leader". That is why the Praetorian Guard was called the Praetorian Guard - Guard of the Leader.
If the Roman Emperors and Caesar learnt about this history, they would be amazed.
