    22:50 I've always found the explanation that 'foreign languages sounded like gibberish' is the origin of barbaroi or barbarophonoi to be deeply unsatisfying, but I feel like there is a more logical possibility.
    For instance, the traditional explanation does not explain why 'bar' is the syllable used to represent gibberish.
    But it is a well-known phenomenon that as civilizations urbanized, people started introducing themselves using the pattern of 'name from place' or 'name job' or even 'name, job of place', etc.
    More nomadic civilizations have tended to be more likely to use the naming format 'name, child of name, child of name, child of name, ....'
    Given the groups the name was applied to, especially opposite the direction opposite Rome, one could imagine how it seemed to the Greeks that every time they met a man from the eastern end of the Mediterranean that he introduced himself as 'name, bar name, bar name, bar name, bar...' and they'd start to the nomadic middle-easterners as "those bar-bar people"

      There's more to a great general than winning battles. George Washington kept his army together for years in what seemed to be an unwinnable war, it's something that most generals in history wouldn't be able to do, not even Alexander the Great who, by the end of his campaigns, was hated by his own army despite winning every single battle.

    • @JesusSalomon-q2x
      @JesusSalomon-q2x Місяць тому +1

      There’s a reason why the old adage “live long enough to see yourself become the villain” is so popular. Washington quit while he was ahead, refusing to take on the role of king when offered, and refusing to run for reelection after two terms. He was a good man for this reason, no doubt, but Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar were men who were in power far far longer than George was and their legacies have withstood the test of centuries. Im not saying George wasn’t an admirable man, but if we’re comparing Apples to Apples, only time will tell if Washington will be remembered as Caesar and Alexander are remembered thousands of years later. I personally don’t put them in the same boat. Julius Caesar particularly left a legacy that will likely in some way shape or form last as long as humanity does. Caesar (whom I’m most familiar with) quite literally became the most powerful man in Rome both politically and militaristically. Was he hated by the Senate? Towards the end yes, he was killed by them, but the people loved him so much that when the senate tried to strut around like heroes for killing Caesar a bloody civil war broke out.

    • @thiago292
      @thiago292 Місяць тому +3

      @JesusSalomon-q2x not to be that guy, but George Washington actually spent more time leading America than Caesar did Rome.
      From Caesar's election to Consul in 59 B.C to his death in 44 B.C he spent 15 years in power (I'm including his time leading the troops in Gaul)
      From George Washington's appointment as Commander in Chief of the Continental Army in 1775 to the end of his presidency in 1797, he spent 22 years in power.
      Not included in this: Caesar term as Aedile and Praetor (which would add 2 years to his "power") and George Washington time as a Virginia representative (which would add almost 2 more decades to his "power")
      Edit: this is also longer than Alexander the Great was in power. His reign only lasted 13 years, believe it or not.

    • @chaost4544
      @chaost4544 25 днів тому +1

      The comparison is appropriate. The people he mentioned set the tone for how their superpower governments would govern. In the case of George Washington, he was extremely important in the foundational governance philosophy of the United States and beyond. George Washington was unanimously elected as president twice. He was powerful enough to make the newly formed idea of president a political entity akin to a King. Instead, for the most part, he followed congressional rule of law and most important gave up power after two terms. Him not running for a third term of office set a precedent that not only other presidents would follow but established the idea of leadership term limits in representative democracies.

    I don't know how it would be hard to argue against that claim when Rome, far from "never returning" to the possession of the emperors, was returned only like 60 years later, and then the empire held the city again for another 219 years (about the same timespan as the time between Napoleon and today).

    • @idiottalkshistory
      @idiottalkshistory  6 місяців тому +2

      Fair point about the 60 years later thing, the Byzantines did come into possession of it around 535 after the Gothic War. I should have noted that. But after the Lombard invasion of Italy in 569 it is seriously hard to argue that the Byzantines controlled anything in the city. Nominally they held sovereignty over the area but practically it was controlled via a combination of the Pope, the Franks, the Lombards, and the Byzantines on the side. But fair point I really should have noted that!

      @marvelfannumber1 6 місяців тому +4

      What makes you say that?
      The Popes still required imperial approval after being elected up to Pope Benedict II in 684. The Exarch of Ravenna arrested the Pope on numerous occasions and dictated foreign policy against the Lombards.
      Not to mention that Constans II straight up visited Rome in 663, and moved the capital to Sicily during his reign. I think it's pretty hard to argue the empire did not have control of Rome, when the emperor was able to visit.

  • @Michael-Douglas

    The term "Imperator" in ancient Rome did not mean "emperor" in the way we understand it in modern English. Instead, it referred specifically to the head of the army, similar to what we would call a "commander-in-chief" today. Augustus, the first Roman emperor, preferred to use the term "Princeps" to describe himself, which means "first citizen" or "leading citizen." Over time, later Romans began to use his name, "Augustus," as the title for what we now consider an emperor.

    as a romanian is simply impossible to accept the ottomans as the succesaors of Rome.

I have nothing against modern turks, its juat that as someone from the balkans i cant condone the ottoman empire, which i see as an invader, not diferent than the austrian and russian empires who also interviened in my lands history. I wouldnt say the state of romania is a roman empire, but i can say that we have more motives to call ourselves romans or descentants of romans than the germans or turks or russians, which in my perspective were large empires who just wanted to pose as romans

      To be 100 percent honest with you, that is how I've always said it and have always heard it pronounced. Maybe that's because I'm from the south? I don't know! How do you say it?

      I belive the proper academic pronounciation goes something like *HE WAS A CONSUL OF ROME!*

    4:06 A point id like to make is (and please please PLEASE correct me if I am wrong) is that that at this point Cesar was becoming to much of an issue. And by making him Pontifex maximus it barred him from being eligible for the position of consol. But indoing so gave Cesar the pier to declare which days were considered sacred. I.E. allowing him to kind of rig when votes would and would not happpen. Again this is a generally uneducated persons understanding. I would love to know more.

    "The East was mostly Greek, but they were still Roman."
    "The HRE was German, so it wasn't really Roman."
    "Also, conquest triumphs most things."

      The HRE was not a former part of the Roman empire. It was founded by the Franks then later reforged by the Germans. The Eastern Empire was literally part of the Empire, that's the difference.
