      @@billstream1974 Did you see part 1 on my channel about the Agoge? It's not a deep dive in any way, but it does show the movie's take on the training. I don't think I know enough about the actual history to really do a deep dive on it that would do it justice. Thanks for watching.

      Let's not get crazy on the history here. I think you put way to much importance on the little country of Greece and what they did which wasn't much. I think youmight want to stop getting your history from the movies. You know they kind of overexaggerate things. Greece did get it's ass kicked.

      What are you talking about? All of western civilization is based on the accomplishments of the ancient Greeks. The Romans were directly and heavily influenced by the Greeks. And, by extension, all of Western civilization. We still use their alphabet today. And our government is based on the Greek and Roman governments. The ancient Greeks excelled at math,philosophy,and laid the foundations of cosmology, medicine, physics, and were amazing architects, and battlefield strategists. It is ridiculous to claim that what they did, "wasn't much".
      As for you last statement, again, what are you talking about? The Greeks won the Greco-Persian war.

      Wtf? Go read some books brother. Learn about the Athenians (Greece before Greece). There’s so much lost from that time because it was so long ago. But the world would be entirely different if the Persians won. Our entire world, numbers, alphabet, government structure etc. would be so different. You can see how Greece (who influenced Rome) is in every fiber of this world to this day.

    • @WeWatchTheWatchers
      @WeWatchTheWatchers  5 днів тому +1

      Thank you for this. I get SO annoyed with being cast into the category of "corner head nodder" and yes, I know exactly the type of videos and creators you are referring to. My idea is to add my reaction and commentary but without constantly interrupting the flow of the video, you interrupt too much, people complain understandably, you say nothing, you're a head nodder ripping off someone else's content.
      Moreover, the "creators" in question to whom you were referring to tend to just stitch together one reactor's scenes and then the next and over and over again and you get this constant repetition. I did one or two videos like that, but I don't like it. I put in the work to "blend" the reactions as to form a thematic progression of the short story I am focusing on. Nuances sadly lost on some over eager angry keyboard warriors although I do understand some of their irritation and hasty judgment. To all this I add my commentary and analysis and some memes here and there too that may go unnoticed or viewers might just assume it was the original reactors who put it in, but it wasn't. Anyway, thanks for noticing and drawing the distinction. It is really appreciated and means a lot.

    As a Greek I must say when Persians cane ashore to invade our homeland it was their mistake. Also Spartans had armor and red cloth around them giving them the nickname till nowadays the Red death. Also another fact spartan phalanx march forward with a sound of a flute that's why they are also called Silemt death. As why red cloth because the enemy that had the bad luck to fight against Spartans they wouldn't know if the spartan I wounded or not.

    Just wanted to make it clear to anyone that doesn’t know. Kings would join in most battles some directly some staying out of the fight but on the battlefield. We hold our presidents and politicians to a minimum standard compared to our ancestors. Our leaders used to lead us into battle now they send us to die while they get rich off our backs.

    • @WeWatchTheWatchers
      @WeWatchTheWatchers  11 днів тому

      True, I think the idea of the King leading the charge fell out of use because the Kings kept dying especially as ranged weapons became more and more accurate. One main difference about today's politicians is that, unlike the Kings of old, these people are elected by us. They say in a true democracy you always get the leader you deserve, because the majority voted for him/her. If this is true and we still have crappy leaders, is that not a reflection upon us as well?

After getting out and slowly learning about the real driving force behind the wars it made sick. It was all about $ fukin dick Cheney the vp also the head of Halliburton. They supplied everything to war effort and he got stupidly rich from it.

    Despite this 'romantic' construction thermopilis was one of the real and bloody battles fought.
    Spartans perhaps weren't best civilization in the world but 'molon labe' deeper sounds in memories.
    I am italian and I still dream about honor and my nightmares take place in that cloaca maxima that is my 'Patria' now whitout dignity.

      There is a term called presentism, which basically means that some people like to judge the ones from the past harshly through the lens of modern values. Yes, the Spartans did things that according to todays values would be considered reprehensible but we must always remember that later generations were often only able to discover better values because they stand on the shoulders of those that came before and that those who will come after may judge us the same one day when we're dead. So we should not judge the Spartans too harshly, the ancient Greeks did a lot for the world we have today. My next video will be on Troy (Some of the ancestors of the Romans). Stay tuned.

    All the military strategies and combat tactics throughout the history were based on Spartan army including Romans and even modern anti riot forces nowadays ..There were no better warriors in any period of the history and it will never be ,back then it was an old tale about Spartans that was saying that they were welcoming war because war was a holiday for them comparing with the daily training back in Sparta..No empire in the world were prepared for their level of training..

      Actually all the Acadians left as well as David Wenham's character. He was sent back to tell the story to the council, so at least up to that point there was someone who could give an account as to what was said.

      Some people will talk at the tv, but mostly they are playing up for the camera. It's part of the job and what most viewers expect. I see it as exaggerated or amplified reactions, but not fake.

    Oh dont forget ...in the Bible ( The Book of Esther )... Xerxes is mentioned as a good and kindly King...but history shows...eh ...not so much...though its a good story and even has a fairly decent movie of it...but as a completely non religious person its another sign its just a book of fiction like any other so called holy text...

    • @WeWatchTheWatchers
      @WeWatchTheWatchers  7 днів тому

      I think the phrase: "One man's freedom fighter is another man's terrorist" could be applied here with some modification. Xerxes was a good and kindly king in the minds of his subjects and wife perhaps. So, "One man's good and kindly king is another man's tyrant" would be the modified version. They wrote it from their own perspective. I think Eshter was married to Xerxes or his father or something.

    The Persians back then was not near as "racist" as the Athenians. The people of Persia where able to have whatever religion they wanted.
    The Persians didn't look anything like these guys, because they wherent Muslims at all, because the Religion/Cult of Islam didn't exist in 480 bc when all this happened.
    The Persians where way more "open" than we in the west... I know that this will not sit well in western eyes, because we want them to be the villains every time.

      Yes, I understand it's just a movie based on a graphic novel, sort of based on something that happened more than 2500 years ago and not historically accurate. Wasn't trashing the movie in any way, shape or form either. LOVE THE MOVIE , in case I need to make it painfully obvious to some. Thank you for your insights.
