The wildest history fact I know is that the fax machine was invented in 1843, Abraham Lincoln served as president from 1861 to 1865, and the last samurai died in 1868. This means there was a brief period when Abraham Lincoln could have faxed a samurai using a fax machine.
Fact, the origin of Cyclops mythology, when Greek people found the fossilized skull of a species of tiny elephants which once were roaming the land. The skulls had one large hole in the front where the trunk was. But the people thought it was the one single eye socket of cyclops and that is how the myth started.
Hang on, so if trex wasn’t around to chomp stegosaurus, what was around that required stego to need those bony plates and the spiked tail? I could be mistaken but I thought I read or heard that stego used the plates for warmth? And there were other trex-like Dinos just wondering if it would have been a different variety by different name back when stego was around. Anyone know?
T-Rex lived at the end of the Cretaceous period, just before the dinosaur-killing asteroid strike 66 million years ago. Stegosaurus, and other popular Jurassic dinosaurs such as Diplodocus, lived around 150 million years ago. T-Rex lived closer to the modern day than to the time of Stegosaurus. [was not quite sure, so I did some quick research, but here you go ^^)
@@HereToDefeatBoredom The 'fun' is referring to the perception of time - seeing that the T-Rex lived closer to us than to other well known dinosaur - something, you would generally not think of, because it already is millions of years ago

@@Kilsikothe thing is, they completely destroyed several civilizations. Bronze age had a sistem of powers centered around the middle east and around trade, and all of that got massively wrecked with the invasion of someone whom we know nothing about but that they came from the sea. Such was the impact that not even their name was spoken and we know them just as "the sea peoples". Imagine if in a thousand years all people know about the US is that their nation was ended by *someone* and most of their history with few exceptions was erased by this civilization collapse. Would be creepy, and still is. Theories speculate that te sea peoples were raiders from somewhere in European coasts, who had Iron weapons and thus were better armed than the bronze wielding civilizations.
Mine is that the man driving the car where the Austro-Hungarian heir and his wife were on in Sarajevo took the wrong path. This man could've avoided/delayed the first and second world war if he hadn't got lost
The assassination of Franz Ferdinand didn't start the war. It was only speeding up the already existing plan of Austro-Hungary to go to war, and has heightened the already-existing tension in Europe at that point of time.
@@RebelWvlf You just described what starts a war. I understand what you mean and you are right to say that the war would have taken place anyway, any historian worthy of the name says so, but in any case the official cause of the beginning is the death of Franz Ferdinand
@@RebelWvlf sure, it wasn't the sole factor in starting the war, but he got assassinated in our timeline and so it's not wrong to say that it's basically the spark that started world war I
This is something I saw on some DnD shorts.. A group consisting of an English Victorian Gentleman, a Cowboy, a French Privateer and a Samurai is historically plausible.
She was also a brilliant diplomat, excellent strategist, and strong leader. But the Romans didn’t like that a woman held such a position. That’s why Cleopatra, for the longest time, was simply seen as a seducer and sex symbol, because that’s what the Roman propaganda said she was. She was reduced to just being a lover of Julius Caesar and Marc Antony, and being remembered as just that for a VERY long time because of the slander.
She damn near took over the whole Mediterranean. She would have, if up against anyone but Octavian/Augustus who was nearly her equal but had the connections in Rome and Caesar's will on his side.
The romans were right, its unbefitting for a woman to hold leadership over grown men, its like saying a mother was the leader of her husband and children, its silly
@@user-fn2bi4ph1nor more like running skills, almost bulletproof body and incompetence of few men soldiers. In the end humans got the last laugh (they built better fences for emus not to eat their food)
Another one like this The last wooly mammoths existed during the time of the pyramids of Giza were being built . For about 720 years btw they overlapped
I remember reading that there were hieroglyphs of mammoths found in ancient Egypt. That’s pretty amazing they were alive then. Clarifying: the hieroglyphs were found in Egypt, not the actual mammoths.
Imagine being 22 and thinking “wow I only have like 26 years left”(the average life expectancy in the country the woman was from was 48 years at the time) and end up living another 100 years
@denisemoore6134 Fair point, for sure many people were born March 12, 1809. But still, while it's common for famous people to share birthdays, it's less common for two major historical figures (not just celebs) to be born on *the exact same day* (not just sharing a birthday in common).
In the 1800s, many graves began having bells installed with a string connecting the bell and the coffin. This was because they kept finding coffins with nail scratches on the inside.
Italy has a footless statue and Turkey has a statueless foot bc in the 1200s Italy (using the modern names for sake of ease) stole a statue during war and couldnt find the foot, and when Turkey unearthed it in the 1960s Italy straight up said "well since we have the statue can you give us the foot? 🥺" And Turkey said "ummmm, no?" 😂
There were more statues in the city but the Turkish invaders destroyed them. Like the Hippodrome of Constantinople , The mosaics of the Hagia Sophia, and the aquaducts

@@___E The Collessium is young compared to the Pyramids by thousands of years, so the later Egyptians may not have known, just like today's Egyptians do not know.
I saw a post on Tumblr where an adventuring party consisting of a Victorian gentleman thief, an Old West gunslinger, a disgraced former samurai, and an elderly French pirate is actually 100% historically plausible. Consider: Victorian England: 1837-1901 American Old West: 1803-1912 Meiji Restoration: 1868-1912 French privateering in the Gulf of Mexico: ended circa 1830 And taking inspiration from the top comment. They can get quests from Abraham Lincoln via Fax Machine.
Disgraced Samurai makes sense considering the shift during the Meiji restoration. I imagine his character would be stubbornly clinging to his role based on lineage.
The fact that Napoleon faced not only one, but FIVE coalitions to be defeated is mind bogggling. Even when he came back, he was still feared by the Allies. If that's not badass, I don't know what is.

@@Alex-fc8xn Actually Polaris age is difficult to estimate. I have seen estimations that goes from ~40 millions to 1.5 billions. But sharks are older than a lots of stars.
I love this fact because from it alone you would never guess that Robert Liston was one of THE BEST surgeons of his time. He was unpopular amongst his peers for taking the cases they deemed "impossible" and for advocating that the comfort and emotional well-being of patients was important for their recovery. One great moment of his is when he burst into a professor's classroom and saw the cadaver of a young murdered woman, Mary Paterson, "posed lasciviously". Robert responded by throwing the professor to the floor in front of his students, covering Mary's body with his coat, and hauling her away for a proper burial. Unfortunately the 300% mortality rate story is apocryphal, it was only written about after his death and there are no matching surgical records to support it, but that's not nearly as fun imo so i choose to believe it anyways
My favorite fact is that the word factoid doesn't.mean a small interesting fact, but something that is false and repeated so often people think it's true. It's like a fact, but not one. With -oid chosen as the suffix to be like humanoid, like a human, but not one.
Ok I can top that.... WOOLEY MAMMOTHS were still around when the PYRAMIDS were being built!! Think about that... these ancient giants coexisted with the ancient Egyptian civilization. While the pyramids were constructed around 2,500 BC, the last woolly mammoths died out around 1,650 BC. This means there was a significant overlap in time between these two iconic symbols of the past.... BOOM!
That nagasaki was historically the center of Catholicism in Japan and during the bombing of hiroshima and nagasaki around 2/3 of Japanese Catholics were killed and their churches were destroyed. It was known as the “Rome of Japan” prior and was a center for Christianity since it wasn’t accepted in other parts of Japan. It’s extremely sad

I have way too much to list down but one of them is how the rms carpathia broke it's top speed of 12 knots just to rescue survivors of the titanic they turned off the power and pushed it beyond it's capabilities just to aid in the disastrous event
@@hell1942 They turned off the electricity and heating to be able to convey all the power of the boilers into the engines, so they managed to exceed the speed limit of 12 knots. It was an act of extreme courage considering that in doing so they practically traveled beyond their maximum speed through a stretch of sea where icebergs had been reported, all to save the survivors of the Titanic. The Carpathia sank 6 years later, during the First World War.
Its astonishing me (not the peoe in this comment section) how some people think ancient Egypt was a singular hegemonic time frame; not multiple different periods and cultures growing and changing a vast period of time
Firstly, Mae's fact about Cleopatra. Secondly, that mammoths didn't go extinct in the ice age. They were still alive when the pyramids were built! Yes they were isolated on an Island and suffering from a myriad of inbreeding related issues, like dwarfism, which led to their extinction. (well obviously due to humans decimating their populations with over hunting, habitat encroachment and destruction, etc etc. The same thing we're doing and have done to thousands of species.)
King Arthur was taken from a variety of people and turned into one person for Welsh propaganda purposes during their struggles against the English. That's how he started, as far as I know!
Probably because she wasn't Egyptian, she belonged to the Ptolemaic dynasty who were a Greek dynasty who took over Eygpt after Alexander the Great died. She was also the first person in her dynasty to speak Demotic if I'm not mistaken. With Demotic being the direct descendant of Kematic, the language of the Ancient Egyptians. She also spoke something like 9 languages though to be fair. So yeah she wasn't Egyptian and Egypt hadn't been ruled by native Egyptians for something like 600 years at that point.
That is the one of my favourite fact as well :) (not only because I am currently working on a massive Ancient Egypt project ^^') Another nice fact: Woolly mammoths still roamed the Earth when the Egyptian pyramids were being built. Woolly mammoths roamed the Earth for at least half a million years, coexisting with humans for millennia before finally going extinct some 4,000 years ago. The first pyramid (Djoser ~2630-2610 BC)
@@MaggieJaneSimpson Thanks for the addition :) Wrangel Island in the Arctic Ocean off the coast of Siberia, Russia, where woolly mammoths lived until about 4,000 years ago.
I would like to thank you for raising the issue of Cleopatra having white skin, because some problems occurred not long ago in Egypt, and we, as Egyptians, were accused of being hostile to people with dark skin.❤
Guys, im Egyptian, and i am so happy when i was scroling through the comments section that there are a lot of people who know quite great facts about eqypt !!
I wonder if its just a matter of how humans comprehend timelines, based on the amount of recorded and easily learned history, which only started relatively recently in human history.
During WWI a huge number of men from Senegal, at that time a French colony, were bribed into joining the French army to a risky mission in exchange for having their own farms back from colonialist robbers after the war. They got such poor equipment and training from French government, that only 300 survived. They were used as meat for slaughter. When those who survived claimed that the government keep its promise, they were executed one by one by their own comrades at Charles de Gaulle's order. This is the kind of historical fact I can't get over.
My favorite historical fact is that the son of the Mendeleev which is known for the first model of periodic table designed one of the few tank designs of Russian empire at world war 1 the tank is known as Mendeleev tank The tank itself looks bizarre but the suspension is something new and weird for me
fun fact salted or seasoned/spiced bread was a common dish in tzarist russia in the 1500s as spices were rare in Europa and Russia was away from major trade routes until Ottoman blockades and heavy taxation came into effect shifting routes from persia through the levant to north through Russia to the rest of Europa for a time making spices more common because it was hard to get in most of Europa at the time the dish was considered fancy but Russia was near enough to get spices at an affordable enough amount for people to be able to eat it you can have some random bits of information below for those interested just felt like making a 2008 style comment chain of random information most of this is either from random txt document notes i made on my computer at some point or another or from memory or observation so take everything with a pinch or punch of salt do your own research do not use my comments as a source this is not plebbit where comments reference other comments as sources to back up their inane arguments nice video think i heard it mentioned more than a decade ago in a discovery science documentary probably also on discovery channel and the history channel and also at some point an alltimes10 video that cleopatra lived closer to us than she did to the pyramids

Cleopatra was Greek, descended from one of Alexander the Great's generals. Her name is equal to "Patrokles" and means "love of father". Humans have been living in the Nile valley for so long that it is silly to clump them together into one culture, or even three. Humans evolved by working stone. The first people to walk into Egypt had two million years of stoneworking skills. My historical fact is that there are natural stone formations that look a little like the Great Sphinx. (We call them "yardangs.") Humans could have seen seen a big one by the Nile, and touched it up a bit. The next group to wander by would have been more impressed ... That could be the start of Egypt.

Maybe they were pirates but in different version? They sound like pirates
@@Kilsikothe thing is, they completely destroyed several civilizations. Bronze age had a sistem of powers centered around the middle east and around trade, and all of that got massively wrecked with the invasion of someone whom we know nothing about but that they came from the sea. Such was the impact that not even their name was spoken and we know them just as "the sea peoples".
Imagine if in a thousand years all people know about the US is that their nation was ended by *someone* and most of their history with few exceptions was erased by this civilization collapse. Would be creepy, and still is. Theories speculate that te sea peoples were raiders from somewhere in European coasts, who had Iron weapons and thus were better armed than the bronze wielding civilizations.

She was also a brilliant diplomat, excellent strategist, and strong leader. But the Romans didn’t like that a woman held such a position. That’s why Cleopatra, for the longest time, was simply seen as a seducer and sex symbol, because that’s what the Roman propaganda said she was. She was reduced to just being a lover of Julius Caesar and Marc Antony, and being remembered as just that for a VERY long time because of the slander.

I love this fact because from it alone you would never guess that Robert Liston was one of THE BEST surgeons of his time. He was unpopular amongst his peers for taking the cases they deemed "impossible" and for advocating that the comfort and emotional well-being of patients was important for their recovery.
One great moment of his is when he burst into a professor's classroom and saw the cadaver of a young murdered woman, Mary Paterson, "posed lasciviously". Robert responded by throwing the professor to the floor in front of his students, covering Mary's body with his coat, and hauling her away for a proper burial.

Humans evolved by working stone. The first people to walk into Egypt had two million years of stoneworking skills.
My historical fact is that there are natural stone formations that look a little like the Great Sphinx. (We call them "yardangs.") Humans could have seen seen a big one by the Nile, and touched it up a bit. The next group to wander by would have been more impressed ... That could be the start of Egypt.
Cleopatra wasn't Greek he felt in love with a Greek man and there was a lot of Greek names in ancient Egypt cause there was alot of interactions between Egypt and Greek

People find this surprising because they view Egypt more like New Jersey and less like China. That’s the best analogy I can come up with.
Sorry what?
Doesn't make sense.
@@denisemoore6134 it does you might just be dumb💀 people view Egypt as a small country in the middle of nowhere rather than a culture and society that’s been around for hundreds of thousands of years this is an extremely easy thought process to follow
That at Osowiec there were Russian soldiers who were the epitome of the „Man too angry to die“ meme.
They had ARCHAEOLOGISTS. ANCIENT EGYPTIAN ARCHAEOLOGISTS.
We don’t know how Greek fire was made or what a lot of Byzantine art was like because they destroyed more of their own work then the invading army of the Ottomans ( thanks for keeping the Sofia we appreciate it)
Wait why did they destroy their own work?
@@HistorybyMae so the Ottomans could not have it and use it. It's like burning your village before you leave because it puts the invading enemy at a disadvantage. That tactic was used for a long time and in many places.
@@HistorybyMae I think they thought they were worshipping idols instead of the depictions so they trashed a bunch of their art and murals so the best pieces we have are outside of the Byzantine area (I watched a video on the Byzantine by overly sarcastic productions if your interested in most likely more factual work then my little comment)
I love the way you wear your hair. ❤
A samurai could’ve sent a fax to Abraham Lincoln (or so I’ve been told)
Mae can you make a video about how WW1 ended since today's armistice day?
Rip to all soldiers fighting in all sides 😔
That there is a diplomatic mission of Samurai converts who travelled across the Pacific to be welcomed by a Nahuatl convert so their party could go to Spain to meet the King and then Rome to meet the Pope
I cant get over the fact that Napoleon was once attacked by rabbits😂
