It is amazing how long and rich Greek History is. The continuity of a nation that is still standing, no matter the difficulties.
If folks enjoy these long form types of history, I am a history professor and put all my lectures on my channel as well.
Greece is one of my favourite ever countries and this is a fascinating history of the country which I must take my time to watch the video!!!EVER LIVE GREECE!!! 🇬🇷
Fun fact: The Arabic and Turkish names for Greece is based on "Ionia", not "Hellas" or "Graecia Magna".
Some told us we didn't cover enough of Magna Graecia. So we made a dedicated video -> What Happened with the Greeks of Italy: /watch?v=S5sRZYJ15eM We're working on more "Entire History" videos. What civilization or topic would you like to see? Get your historical map here: /
Greek state needs no propaganda all they have to do is teach our history to our kids faithfully and truthfully and their young minds will demand wars glory expansion Greeks being Greek again no nation can hide its or from its past we are who we are Ζητω η ΕΛΛΑΣ
Who needs to waste money at the movie theatre or Netflix subscription when you can have this jewel?
People constantly debate the Greekness of the Eastern Roman Empire aka Byzantium. The history of the hellenistic world provides ample context on why the Eastern Roman Empire was in fact a Greek Empire with a Roman name.
1:13:27 Macedonia is part of Greece
1:00. I don't think the Minoans were illiterate. We just can't read their writing.
No, Ancient Greece didn't last until 146 BC. The most important Greek cities and populations by that time were in the Levant (Asia Minor, Syria and Egypt), stretching as far as Bactria and India with the Greko-Bactrian kingdom and the Greko-Indian kingdoms that lasted much more, as far as 30 BC
As a Turk, I will watch the video with interest.
I am thankful, as a Hellene for this great video, because the Hellenic civilization is one, if not the most, ancient civilization of the known world.. its light lightened all of the Western civilizations, through Rome, as a continuation of the Hellenic civilization.. Thank you for your video!🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷
At 49:00, you are incorrect in stating that Darius was Cyrus' son. After Cyrus, his son Cambyses II ascended to the throne. Following Cambyses' death, the false Bardiya, also known as "Smerdis", seized the throne, which led to a revolt among the Persian elite. After the revolt, Darius I, who came from a side branch of the dynasty, ascended to the throne.
3,000 years of history in one video?? From myths to empires, Ancient Greece really shaped the world more than we realize.
You just saved me from boredom. Thank you.
*I LOVE THE SWORD CLASHING NOISES*
Man that is something you did right there !! I wasn't expecting a 2 hours documentary . The amount of work and dedication for doing something like that is just mindblowing . Keep going on everything is perfect.
Great video, but you didn't talk about Pyrrhus of Epirus and the Pyrrhic wars or the wars between Rome and Pontus
Got a banger just as I’m starting my shift 🙏🏽
