Notes:
* = The Sealand Dynasty never actually controlled the city of Babylon, but by convention it is always considered the Second Dynasty of Babylonia.
** = The Eighth Dynasty of Babylonia is a poorly understood period, and it's likely that multiple dynasties ruled during this time. However, due to lack of information, it is classed as one dynasty.
So this will probably end up being a three-part series, with the other two videos covering later periods in Middle Eastern history. At the moment, I'm expecting them to be:
Part 1: 3500 BCE - 513 BCE (Ancient Era)
Part 2: 513 BCE - 650 CE (Classical Era)
Part 3: 650 CE - 2020 (Medieval/Modern Era)

The end really shows the historic importance of the Achaemenid empire. It was unprecedented. For someone living in ancient Mesopotamia, it would seem as if almost the whole world came to be under one king.
Yes , Achaemenid Empire was ruling over 45% of world's population , and after them no Empire could rule on this high percentage of world population again
@@sonofpersia4780 how Achaemenid controlled so fast all regions ?
@Joey Sims But it's for me impossible to think how this army destroyed complete Nordafrica Anatolia and Middle East in this small period.
@@sonofpersia4780 No they did not, this 45% figure is untenable, China and India at this time had already a lot of people and most of Europe, South-East Asia and half of the Americas were already agricultural too.
@@g-rexsaurus794 not a lot. Persia had the largest population of that time. 45% seems small figure tbh. I think it could've been above 50%
When you're midway through middle eastern history and you're still 1500 years away from the Roman empire
The Romans were children as compared to the Elamites, Akkadians, Egyptians et al. Incredible really.
The Romans would consider Egyptians, Akkadians, Babylonians, Assyrians etc. As ancient
@@mariabopthey just knew something about Egypt
If anything, it shows how old Iranian civilization is. Preceded the Romans. Rivaled the Romans for its entire existence. Survived an Arab invasion. Still around today.

It is called Canaan, and was not there the whole time.
@@genericchannelname4110 Wrong. Canaan preceded Israel. It was broadly the same place at an earlier period. Israel was simply cheated out of the otherwise great map. Given the first version, it can not be doubted that this was done under pressure, possibly intimidation. Pity that the authors succumbed to that thus turning their back to knowledge, facts. They chose to rename quite arbitrarily the country to an invented in that sense “Samaria”. Some can not suffer seeing Israel on the map.

Eh, technically the ancestors of the Turks are already sitting in Anatolia in this video. By and large they are extremely old (as in "Hittite-old") populations that have just adopted the language of their most recent conquerors.
That is true for Egypt too. Egyptians considered themselves as Arabs. Ancients Egyptian no longer exist.

Sealand stronk
one of the fascinating thing about Achaemenid empire was the fact they were so powerful that they didn't make walls around their capital, because they never thought no one will come this far.
of course it was true for centuries.
*_They built walls around Susa (Their Administrative Winter capital) and Ecbatana (Haŋmatāna) (their Summer capital) and repaired and enlarged the walls of Babylon. The only city which I was not sure of is Persepolis (Parsākhata) and Pasargadae (Pāθra-gadā)._*

it's still insane to me how we know as much as we do about peoples and histories this old and how complex and large scale their socities were. Also, how insanely old and stable ancient Egypt was. I know Cleopatra lived closer to the moon landings than to the construction of the pyramids of Giza, but it's still insane that was that long ago.
Ancient Egypt was a pretty isolated kingdom also, it was in fact unstable at some point, it was divided multiple times, conquered by Hyksos, Assyrians, Persians and Greeks, they have no powerful neighbors as Assyria, Hitites or Akkadians, that contributed to their stability.

Man, I love Assyria. Imagine the amount of tv shows you can create from their story!
I love these history-through-maps videos, but people should appreciate that we are projecting a modern concept of clear hard borders back onto cultures that lacked them. Power and influence often overlapped or consisted in links to distant separated regions or existed only over certain features of daily life and not others. The terminology is also often deceiving: for example, what does the word "semite" even mean? Does living in "Babylonia" mean you are a Babylonian? On the whole, such maps conceal more about the ordinary people than they reveal.
Wow that's so interesting. Never heard of Elam, which seems to be in Iran while it lasted such a long time. Almost the whole video.

The conventional date you use for the end of the Old Kingdom c. 2100 BC is all based entirely on some artifacts that were found in an ancient museum in Byblos and is totally wrong.

0:45 Someone rearranged Shakespeare's name and removed an a.
The dominance of Kish, Akkad, and Babylon over mesopotamia speaks to the dominance of eastern-migrating Semitic people from the Levant over the Sumerians and others native to the region. Since the Levant was in closer contact with Egypt than with Mesopotamia, and tended to invade the latter, it makes sense to think that these waves of Semitic conquerors benefitted from technological advancements coming out of Egypt, right? So why is there so much preoccupation with Sumer as the birthplace of civilization instead of Egypt?
"...Moreover, the only aspect that makes this time period “Sumerian” is the fact that most texts were written in that language. Major parts of the population, however, probably spoke Akkadian - a Semitic language that later on was written and spoken in various dialects in Babylon and Assyria. Archaeologists, accordingly, divide the time between 4000 and 2000 BCE into five major periods that reflect the aforementioned developments, but generally avoid the term “Sumerian” to describe any of its artwork and material culture." -- Dr. Clemens Reichel, expert on Ancient Mesopotamia; hence no evidence of Semites being "invaders, conquerors" of Mesopotamia.

bro, if i remember correctly in 5:53 its kingdom of Israel and samaria is just the name of the region
Because all of Canaan was conquered by the Israelites, the area was renamed the Kingdom of Israel, but within it there were areas like regions of land that were controlled by each tribe. The most famous are Samaria and Judea. In Judah was the tribe of Judah (Jews) and the city of Jerusalem. At the end the kingdom was divided into two, the kingdom of Israel and the kingdom of Judah. The capital of the Kingdom of Judah is Jerusalem and the capital of the Kingdom of Israel is in Shiloh which is in Samaria and therefore you will see it on maps like that sometimes. it is written like that beacouse confusion.

wasn't Persia called 'Iran' even during the Achaemenids?
Yes but the called the empire as a whole
"Xšaça"
1. The meaning of Iran did not include only the Persians. 2. The first king of the Persian dynasty was the Achaemenids (hakhamanesh).
The ancient name of Iran was Arya, which includes the entire land of Iran including a lot of the territories East of this map. Arya is also the name of the language they spoke, which today we call Old Iranian. The original Persians were one of several Aryan/Iranic tribes who lived in Iran, and this particular group settled in Southwest Iran, originally taking over the Elamite City of Anshan, then rapidly expanding under Cyrus II in around the 550s BCE. They called themselves the Parsa, and their earliest mention is by the Assyrian King Shalmaneser III in the 850 BCE who calls them the "Parsawa". This was before they had a land and were nomadic peoples in central Iran around the Zagros mountains and Lake Urmia.
Iran and Iranian was a term coined by Darius one of the Achaemenid kings. They saw everyone as Iranian and say Persians as a sub of Iranians. It worked really well for easing ethnic tensions and unifying Iran. It’s like if all the Europeans were put in one place and forced to unify instead of drawing ethnic boarders

Until the Persians came along
in this new version you have replaced Armenians with Hurrians and some unidentified "Anatolians".
Well, but what about the fact that the son (or grandson) of the Akkadian king Sargon the Ancient Naram-suen (or Naram-sin) approx. 2250-2230 BC went north with his troups to find out where the Tigris and Euphrates flow from and narrated that "Armanim" live at the origins of those rivers (not Hurrim or Anatolim!) and their main city is Armanum surrounded by threefold walls?
The country of Nairi and Subartu have disappeared from your maps at all.
What are the reasons of those replacements and disappearances of well documented Armenian states? Where is Arrata, mentioned by Sumerians (inhabitants of which are called "Hay" - self-name of Armenians)? Where is Arme-Shupria or Subartu (the name of the main God of which is Haya --theonym of Armenians)? Where is the Araratian kingdom mentioned in the Bible as a powerful state capable to fight Babilo? Where is Armina, mentioned by the Persian Achaemenids instead of Urartu on the Behistun multilingual inscription?

Such a great improvement from your old video with the same title, so much work. Maybe you can add "[old]" before the title to that video in order to distinguish the two and to promote this one. Also I wonder, why did you show Israel as a unified kingdom in the right-side table but not in the map?
4:53 The Canaanites were there first.
There were people before them too
There was a kingdom of Israel before the partition in 926 BC, when the southern part called itself judea and the northern part still Israel. You labeled it here Samaria which was not the name of the country but only of its capital. In the older version you had it right.
