A few years back, Germany wanted to send a delegation to the US, so that they could simply look at their gold reserves and the US was like "It's yours, but we can't let you look at your gold"
Germany didn't want the gold back because the euro is effectively pegged to the dollar and in the unlikely, but possible, event of hyperinflation the dollar will go back on the gold standard and stop the inflation immediately
No bank stores money, Especially not large sums of money. As soon as you put your money into a bank that bank takes said money and invest it. If you are a wealthy person and you go up to your bank and demand to see your money or say that you want to take your money out You will not get your money right away because that money is tied up in their system of investments so the bank will need to call around and push money around to make things happen for you. But that money is not just sitting in a vault somewhere.

british museums are the safest place for foreign antiquities. poor people don't give a damn about history or archaeology or anthropology. they stripped the outer lining of the pyramids for building materials. they pillaged everything they could find, melted down jewelry and crowns, all kinds of treasures. what little we have today is just the 1% that managed to stay hidden until rich europeans found it and preserved it. also, the UK has given a lot of antiquities back to foreign governments, and it has resulted in a number of pieces being damaged or lost. they should have waited until those governments were wealthy and stable, which should be in about 30-50 years. but they caved to the "white supremacy" narrative. which is pretty ironic in light of the fact that they have all these foreign antiquities in the first place. clearly the british were supreme at something, since you don't find british antiquities in egyptian museums lol.

The lingua franca or language of the people was Archaic Koine-Greek to Medieval Koine-Greek since the days of the Macedonian Empire: "Byzantion." City of the Thracian King, Byzas. Before then, it was "Lygös" and was originally settled by Lydians. The Byzantines called themselves the, "Rhoma-ioi" or Ionian-Romans. They seldom spoke Latin, mainly ceremoniously, for over a century before the time of the famous Justinian I. So few native speakers existed in the East that it was rapidly becoming extinct in the East by the late 700's. It ultimately was and was outlawed entirely by the 1100's in spite of the Pope, which led to the 2nd crusade by the Latin Knights. It could be argued the last true Roman to rule Constantinople was as far back as Constantine... He named it "Nova Roma" or New Rome. Since he was so beloved that he became deified, it was imperative to Byzantine culture to identify as Roman. This is despite not having any Roman or Latin culture at all by the 11th century.

Technically, he’s not wrong, but the Roman Empire essentially picked up all of its important people, and then moved to the Byzantine Empire, which was like Greece, turkey sort of entering into the Middle East, and much of a wealth and prosperity, and even many of the indigenously Roman people moved to the Byzantine Empire to get away from the raids and the sacking of many of their most important cities I would argue that they Roman Empire became two churches the orthodox in the Byzantine Empire and the Catholic Church in the holy Roman Empire, but it was very well known that the Byzantine Empire was extremely wealthy partially, because they had access to goods in the Middle East, and into Northern Africa, due to the large amount of wealthy Roman people who fled Italy and various parts of the Roman Empire and moved to the byzantine Empire taking as much of their wealth with them, slaves and servants gold and silver find silks and other tradeable goods but to say that the Catholic Church and the holy Roman Empire didn’t absorb and redistribute the wealth and prosperity of the former regions of the Roman Empire for their gains. however his analogy with Britain being a bank is pretty accurate. Britain sort of realize that they couldn’t defend that they held in a large massive war like with World War 1-2 as a way to other countries from attempting to become empires, the super powers of the world, gave up their fears of influences and colonies however, they still held a very large sum of control in many of these areas, even as much the British government politicians kings and leaders into power in places like Africa, so that they would still keep fairly British ideas and ways of life but that didn’t necessarily work for to long cause then every country in Africa started having various civil wars, because in many of these areas the population didn’t like or necessarily agree with the people the British were putting into power and now that’s sort of why Africa is the way it is now Constant Civil wars and civil unrest, and in many areas, total stop in general development in sciences, education, and social care (helping citizens in need and improving the way of life)
What's being described is a transition of a power base. From a military power to a social power. One of ideology and another of transactions. Social based power is by far the most underutilized forms of power growth used today. We live in a strange age.
This is not historically accurate at all. The Roman empire in the west fell because of infighting and rising up of the other factions such as the Franks Visigoths and step nomads form the east. The Roman empire in the East (Byzantium) stood for another 1300 years. The church was literally the only thing that remained of the old Roman empire. Listen to some Hardcore History by Dan Carlin
I understand Byzantine is the successor to the Roman Empire but after the schism it just seems so far removed from the Roman Empire it doesn’t seem like it was still the same thing. Different geography, didn’t even hold Rome, different ethnicity of people, different languages and customs. So although it is the successor to Rome in my mind it’s as far removed from the Roman Empire BC and up until 500 AD that it’s almost comparable to the Holy Roman Empire in its relation to Rome
You missed the point. The Roman empire didn't fall per se. It just changed from a political force to a religious one... that controls politics worldwide. The church influences America, even. Abortion laws, etc. The empire just changed tactics to keep control.
@josephshipman4930 so the fact they still had the same laws, unbroken Roman succession, similar customs thanks to Greco-Roman syncretism, Rome stopped being important in the third century, Constantinople was "Nova Roma" and founded by a Roman Emperor, and the fact the Orthodox church maintained the sycretism of the Church while the Papacy excommunicated itself makes the Eastern Romans less Roman? Romans literally co-opted Greece and it became apart of the political heartland of Rome in the Republic era. The Third-Century crisis established the fact that the City of Rome was no longer what made a citizen a Roman. Caracalla had already granted citizenship to the entire empire in the early years of the crisis. The Holy Roman Empire never had a claim to being a successor state thanks to the four hundred year gap between the fall of the West and Charlemagne getting a crown from the Pope, who had no authority to make new Roman Emperor's. They have as good of a claim as the Russians claiming they were the "Third Rome" because of the Intermarriage of the Rurikids and Palaiologos family. Or the Spanish claiming it because Konstantinos XI willed the crown to them.

What makes gold special is that it is impossible to manufacture on earth. The only known place gold is created is inside a supernova. That gold dust then falls to earth in small quantities. The supply of gold will never increase dramatically which is why we have used it to back money for 2700 years. In napoleons days aluminum was worth more than gold.

Fun fact: Argentina suffered 2 English invasions during the early 1800s. During the first one, they got hold of the Buenos Aires tax collection chests, they seized it and sent it to London. When Argentina repelled the English and retook control, they reclaimed to money to the English crown. That money, according to English documents, is still in Londonds Bank today, and there is a rule that says that no Argentine citizen EVER is allowed to enter the english vaults. Edit for everyone in the comments: It was just a few years before independence, since Spain could provide no support, the English invasion defense is seen as the first event where the Argentines come together to fight a common foe.

He’s partly right. Rome did become a church in the sense that Roman culture and architecture survived in the Catholic and Orthodox Church.

I believe it. Power doesn't just dissappear. Someone usually takes the torch and runs with it until a catastrophe happens, then it's retrieved again.

Makedon transformed into several different states, and each of those handed off power to others (usually by force).

A few years back, Germany wanted to send a delegation to the US, so that they could simply look at their gold reserves and the US was like "It's yours, but we can't let you look at your gold"
Germany didn't want the gold back because the euro is effectively pegged to the dollar and in the unlikely, but possible, event of hyperinflation the dollar will go back on the gold standard and stop the inflation immediately

No bank stores money, Especially not large sums of money.
As soon as you put your money into a bank that bank takes said money and invest it.
If you are a wealthy person and you go up to your bank and demand to see your money or say that you want to take your money out You will not get your money right away because that money is tied up in their system of investments so the bank will need to call around and push money around to make things happen for you.

British empire:
Guys its your stuff, we're just gonna hold it. In our museums and economy.
Isn't it funny how people condemned the British Empire for how much they took and how much they conquered but nobody talks about how lazy and worthless and feeble all the other people were that couldn't even defend their own countries and own land from a small little tiny Island
british museums are the safest place for foreign antiquities. poor people don't give a damn about history or archaeology or anthropology. they stripped the outer lining of the pyramids for building materials. they pillaged everything they could find, melted down jewelry and crowns, all kinds of treasures. what little we have today is just the 1% that managed to stay hidden until rich europeans found it and preserved it. also, the UK has given a lot of antiquities back to foreign governments, and it has resulted in a number of pieces being damaged or lost. they should have waited until those governments were wealthy and stable, which should be in about 30-50 years. but they caved to the "white supremacy" narrative. which is pretty ironic in light of the fact that they have all these foreign antiquities in the first place. clearly the british were supreme at something, since you don't find british antiquities in egyptian museums lol.

The British were only controlling these places as trading outposts and tax revenue which was based on those commodities.

He is not. The roman empire, as a political subject with its capital in the city of Rome, fell. The control that the church had over the christian kingdoms was very far from the one Rome had over its provinces. The church did not absorb all the void of power that was left in the west when the roman empire fell, neither it's wealth.
He's talking utter nonsense because he doesn't know better, stick to telling jokes.
Both fell but he is talking about what they became nobody said they still exist to the same extent. It’s interesting that after the fall’s a proportion of the money was kept and institutions were set up in their place.
@marlygee not to mention the immense power the Vatican still has today. Christianity rules the western world. If anything, the "Roman empire" as Carr is describing it, is even more powerful now

"It's such a shame the Roman Empire fell."
The Eastern Roman Empire that turned into the Byzantine Empire:
It didn't though. It only became known as the Byzantine Empire after it was destroyed. Renaissance Europe wanted to be called the successor to Rome.
The lingua franca or language of the people was Archaic Koine-Greek to Medieval Koine-Greek since the days of the Macedonian Empire: "Byzantion." City of the Thracian King, Byzas. Before then, it was "Lygös" and was originally settled by Lydians. The Byzantines called themselves the, "Rhoma-ioi" or Ionian-Romans. They seldom spoke Latin, mainly ceremoniously, for over a century before the time of the famous Justinian I. So few native speakers existed in the East that it was rapidly becoming extinct in the East by the late 700's. It ultimately was and was outlawed entirely by the 1100's in spite of the Pope, which led to the 2nd crusade by the Latin Knights. It could be argued the last true Roman to rule Constantinople was as far back as Constantine... He named it "Nova Roma" or New Rome. Since he was so beloved that he became deified, it was imperative to Byzantine culture to identify as Roman. This is despite not having any Roman or Latin culture at all by the 11th century.
It didn't fell, it became the Catholic Curch. If you're a Christian, Mormon, etc, it's all the same. If you got faith and brings you peace, 👍. Just DON'T dig in to this philosophy because the end results are depressing.
@@maxbucio9854 It really didn't... The Church in Rome was always a touch out of sync with the rest of early Christendom, but it wouldn't become a truly independent polity until 756 as the Papal States, three hundred years after Western Rome fell.
And that doesn't doesn't even factor in that Odoacer, the guy who overthrew the last Western Roman Emperor, swore himself as Duke to the Eastern Roman Empire, same with Theodric, the Ostrogothic King who overthrew Odoacer, both who were nominally the Heads of State the Church in Rome answered to for several centuries.
At least until Justinian decided he liked his Roman Empire with Rome directly in it.

Not all the land is controlled by USFEDGOV, though much of it is. They have a separate local government and nearly "infinity" "law enforcement agencies" - at all levels.
The District is also fairly new vs The City of London and Vatican City... The Pentagon is also on Federal land in Virginia (across the river) and most of the monuments are in DC proper. Arlington Cemetery/Tomb of the Unknown Soldier is on the VA side.

Technically, he’s not wrong, but the Roman Empire essentially picked up all of its important people, and then moved to the Byzantine Empire, which was like Greece, turkey sort of entering into the Middle East, and much of a wealth and prosperity, and even many of the indigenously Roman people moved to the Byzantine Empire to get away from the raids and the sacking of many of their most important cities I would argue that they Roman Empire became two churches the orthodox in the Byzantine Empire and the Catholic Church in the holy Roman Empire, but it was very well known that the Byzantine Empire was extremely wealthy partially, because they had access to goods in the Middle East, and into Northern Africa, due to the large amount of wealthy Roman people who fled Italy and various parts of the Roman Empire and moved to the byzantine Empire taking as much of their wealth with them, slaves and servants gold and silver find silks and other tradeable goods but to say that the Catholic Church and the holy Roman Empire didn’t absorb and redistribute the wealth and prosperity of the former regions of the Roman Empire for their gains. however his analogy with Britain being a bank is pretty accurate. Britain sort of realize that they couldn’t defend that they held in a large massive war like with World War 1-2 as a way to other countries from attempting to become empires, the super powers of the world, gave up their fears of influences and colonies however, they still held a very large sum of control in many of these areas, even as much the British government politicians kings and leaders into power in places like Africa, so that they would still keep fairly British ideas and ways of life but that didn’t necessarily work for to long cause then every country in Africa started having various civil wars, because in many of these areas the population didn’t like or necessarily agree with the people the British were putting into power and now that’s sort of why Africa is the way it is now Constant Civil wars and civil unrest, and in many areas, total stop in general development in sciences, education, and social care (helping citizens in need and improving the way of life)

What's being described is a transition of a power base. From a military power to a social power. One of ideology and another of transactions. Social based power is by far the most underutilized forms of power growth used today.

This is not historically accurate at all. The Roman empire in the west fell because of infighting and rising up of the other factions such as the Franks Visigoths and step nomads form the east. The Roman empire in the East (Byzantium) stood for another 1300 years. The church was literally the only thing that remained of the old Roman empire. Listen to some Hardcore History by Dan Carlin
I understand Byzantine is the successor to the Roman Empire but after the schism it just seems so far removed from the Roman Empire it doesn’t seem like it was still the same thing. Different geography, didn’t even hold Rome, different ethnicity of people, different languages and customs. So although it is the successor to Rome in my mind it’s as far removed from the Roman Empire BC and up until 500 AD that it’s almost comparable to the Holy Roman Empire in its relation to Rome
You missed the point. The Roman empire didn't fall per se. It just changed from a political force to a religious one... that controls politics worldwide. The church influences America, even. Abortion laws, etc.
The empire just changed tactics to keep control.
@josephshipman4930 so the fact they still had the same laws, unbroken Roman succession, similar customs thanks to Greco-Roman syncretism, Rome stopped being important in the third century, Constantinople was "Nova Roma" and founded by a Roman Emperor, and the fact the Orthodox church maintained the sycretism of the Church while the Papacy excommunicated itself makes the Eastern Romans less Roman?
Romans literally co-opted Greece and it became apart of the political heartland of Rome in the Republic era. The Third-Century crisis established the fact that the City of Rome was no longer what made a citizen a Roman. Caracalla had already granted citizenship to the entire empire in the early years of the crisis.
The Holy Roman Empire never had a claim to being a successor state thanks to the four hundred year gap between the fall of the West and Charlemagne getting a crown from the Pope, who had no authority to make new Roman Emperor's. They have as good of a claim as the Russians claiming they were the "Third Rome" because of the Intermarriage of the Rurikids and Palaiologos family. Or the Spanish claiming it because Konstantinos XI willed the crown to them.

The same thing happened in the Eastern Roman Empire with what later became the Greek Orthodox Church. At first Constantinople became the dominant city, but as the East fell, Rome rose again, and a bit chunk was out of glory from the time.

There are hundreds of old libraries digitized from around the world. How many languages can you read in? There are free language learning sites for many languages. Vatican treasures pale in comparison.
Never thought about it this way. Great points.
An interesting take but one of the reasons that the barbarians took over the Western Roman Empire was that they weren’t paying their troops and paying protection money to the tribes from invading.

Although I understand his argument, a small correction is that Saudi Arabia was surprisingly the only country in the middle east that wasnt a part of the british empire or foreign occupation….

Rome fell for the same reason most empires fall. They spend all their gold, dilute gold coins with copper or similar until there is no gold left. People lose trust and use other countries gold coins. The cycle is called 7 stages of empire.
Kyklos
so gold is the problem or that humans can't ever stop being transfixed by metal
@@tryfryingmikejones Not even close. When money is backed by nothing it can be printed infinitely. Lowering the value of already existing currency. That is why we have high inflation now that will only get worse. If you need to have gold to print money you can not cause the kind of inflation we see today. What makes gold special is that it is impossible to manufacture on earth. The only known place gold is created is inside a supernova. That gold dust then falls to earth in small quantities. The supply of gold will never increase dramatically which is why we have used it to back money for 2700 years. In napoleons days aluminum was worth more than gold. Until one day someone learned how to make aluminum and it lost almost all value. Same with tulips more recently. So the problem is that we do not use gold to back currency anymore. Had we kept the gold standard the world would be a far better place.
@epplekaka all fiat gets debased... that's the phrase you meant to say lol
@@epplekakamoney was never backed by gold. It’s just a psy-op created by people who were already rich. You don’t ever find it odd a currency was based on a metal that we don’t use for ANYTHING practical in the real world. Wouldn’t it make a lot more sense for the dollar to be backed by idk let’s say grain or wheat? Something we actually NEED to survive. I promise you in 1992 money was just as fake as it was in 1976 just as it is in 2023. The only thing that changes are the number values. The dollar hasn’t been backed by gold in decades and you guys are pretending like the inflation of the last two years is somehow directly attributed to not backing dollars with gold. It’s hilarious. Meanwhile 5 years ago when you were paying $1.07 for a loaf of bread money wasn’t backed by gold then either
Fun fact: Argentina suffered 2 English invasions during the early 1800s. During the first one, they got hold of the Buenos Aires tax collection chests, they seized it and sent it to London. When Argentina repelled the English and retook control, they reclaimed to money to the English crown.
That money, according to English documents, is still in Londonds Bank today, and there is a rule that says that no Argentine citizen EVER is allowed to enter the english vaults.
Edit for everyone in the comments:
It was just a few years before independence, since Spain could provide no support, the English invasion defense is seen as the first event where the Argentines come together to fight a common foe. So in reality Argentina as peoples and territory already existed.

He’s partly right. Rome did become a church in the sense that Roman culture and architecture survived in the Catholic and Orthodox Church. Latin only survived because the Germanic tribes who conquered Rome had to learn Latin to convert to Catholicism and form the Holy Roman Empire. However genetically the peoples of the Roman Republic and Roman kingdom era only survive in modern day northern Italy.
Is this a joke? Northern italians are not italic, for the romans it was cisalpine gaul, not even part of Italy. In the north, they're a blend of askhkenas jews, slavs and celts.

I would suggest you read Livy, he has a great account of the sacking. If you don't prefer Livy you can read Plutarch or Diodorus Siculus.
But anyways, as an expert on Roman History you of course already know all this. Just as you also know that in the 476 AD sacking that you are probably referring to that Rome wasn't even the capital of the Empire anymore.
Get him! 😂
I believe it. Power doesn't just dissappear. Someone usually takes the torch and runs with it until a catastrophe happens, then it's retrieved again.
Case in point: the Medes and Persians invaded then took over control of Assyria. Which was then taken over by Makedon. Makedon transformed into several different states, and each of those handed off power to others (usually by force).

This is false. There was no reset to the stone age. And the Church was not the primary governing body in almost any area outside the papal states. There were kingdoms the whole time until modern representative states. Spain for example, or England. Saxony. Burgundy.

@@That.Guy. I belive you’re confusing Erdogan with the current head of the Osmangolu house, who are not the same people.
Ataturk wiped away any legacy of eastern Rome left in the Turkish state, except for the family of sultans, who still live to this day.
If, of course, you subscribe to the right by conquest claim to Rome
The Byzantines or, rather, Eastern Roman Empire, if you prefer, were feuding with the Catholic Church and the Popes long before 1054. Just look at Pope Leo III and Irene of Athens and their feuding that led to the restoration of the Western Roman Empire in the form of the HRE - a solid 250 years before 1054.
Actually it would make sense when you find out the papal legacy is unclear, and the other half of Rome that you speak of were quite clear in their recording of history on how the western Christians enforced religious control over them, as a trade off for the crusades which saved the eastern Romans from conquest... Yea Roman empire became a church, just look at the history my dude.
