4:11 "Come on Smithers, let's slum it!" - Montgomery Burns, on the way in to Moe's.

8:00 "The isles of skilly". Brit here. Awesome video, but gosh darn it, it's pronounced with a silent / soft c, yes like "silly".

this just hurt my soul

If we're going to deal in facts then an important point is that in the U.S. the wealthiest 1% pay 45% of the income taxes. In fact, the top 50% of taxpayers paid 97.7% of the taxes while only the bottom half paid only 2.3%. The prescription has never been taxation for the purpose of redistribution alone. Policies that encourage innovation, create economic mobility, incentivize giving, create stable family situations, and lower barriers to marketplace entry create economic equality.

Sounds like a Raiders game at the Oakland Collisium before they moved to Vegas.😂

Roman Empire 🇮🇹 Parthian Empire 🇮🇷 Han Dynasty 🇨🇳 Kushan Empire 🇵🇰

I like to think about these ruins like I do the Roman forum. There is not much left to look at in both cases, but the memory of it is stunning no matter ones point of view of history. Very cool to see these things on video!

Islam damn islam

Greatest book on Rome is Masters of Rome by McCullough. Brilliant beyond measure, she was awarded medals by city of Rome. Detailed and thorough she highlights the greatest century of humanity: 100 BC to Christ/ Augustus: Caesar, Marius, mithradates, Herod, Sulla, and Octavian.

All found,all stolen- geronimo

Thanks for another excellent video about a place I was unaware of.

It was aliens.

Am I the only one who sees a triceratops head in the inner walls?

It must have sent a cold shiver up the spine of any Roman emperor who might have been briefed on Eratosthenes's calculation of the circumference of the earth. Kinda like the Dark Forest hypothesis

Greek polytheism was never a cause of war, on the contrary, war happened many times due to the fanaticism of monotheistic religions. In Greek polytheism, the Gods have flaws, are subject to criticism, leave free will to man. Their existence or not is a matter of human faith.

so just how did these amazing romans travel to all these distant places? did they fly? did they sail? if so, how big was their boat? they would need food and lots of water. maybe there were rest areas in the ocean. perhaps they had space ships or maybe teletransporters

Always important to separate Secular Rome from Christian Rome, two totally different cultures.

So the aliens and big foot reached youtube.

They are fake. Everyone in the comments is in denial.

Of course, there were, to think otherwise is foolish. Humans have been humanning for a long time. Way longer than we know seeing as we don't actually know when humans were first on this planet. And it was not 6000 years ago, FFS

Without the Greek language,spreed by Greeks and Alexander,we would now,have no idea about Jesus Christ.

what happend to this Ancient architecture, it was so beautiful why did it become forgotten

What a load of garbage.

Bonjour , merci pour cette magnifique video, j'ai deja des pieces romaines qui datent de 2300 ans avant jc , j'avais peur de les netoyées il y a encore les residues de la terre dessus hhhhh.cette vision m'inspire .

They were called emperors..!

a similar thing happen with Italy or France today living of their glorious past

Ah extortion, all the way back then

If you go to Italy and do not have time to visit Pompei, visit absolutely Ostia Antica. It is only 30 or 40 minutes away by train from Rome. I have visited both Pompei and Ostia and loved Ostia as much as I did Pompei. Ostia is literally the small version of Pompei. Pompei is far from Rome and you cannot do it in one day (back and forth) It is near Naples.

13:05 so basically we had wage and price controls, enforced by the death penalty, and they still didn't work. What have we learned??

In other words, inflation and monetary policy were something governments have been grappling with for thousands of years. What have we learned??

I’d wager that no human has ever died by being struck by a falling chamber pot.

I feel sorry for people who live in former Yugoslavian republic with t the capital of Skopje, and Albanians.They try to steal a little bit from the glory of the Greek history and civilisation, without success and they are in a real delirium.They became tragically funny, throughout the web .I’m sorry guys,the only thing you can do with your nonsense.is to make ,people who know history to laugh with you.At least have some dignity and learn the real history based on facts.Plese,don’t make people to see you as 🤡.

After this video, I think British,Russian and Americans, understood,why they couldn’t conquer Afganistan.They were fighting with the descendants of Greeks, fighters of the Alexander the Great😂😂😂😂.

Как можно какать в компании?😮😮😮😮

So, we can blame the Romans for the horrific traffic jams.

Once a very rich kingdom,know a hell on earth.The proof of what a religion can do to human beings.How a religion can destroy millions of people.Be aware what you believe.

U cool for sponsoring in the end

What China’s leaders are doing today.

Nicely done! One comment: I think you badly underestimate the benefit of the Roman Peace to the subsistence farmers. We don't hear from them today as they left behind no writings, but when order breaks down the powerless at the base of the societal pyramid suffer the most. (E.g., an army passing by during a civil leaves starvation in its wake -- assuming anyone survives unmolested to do the starving. A Senator might lose some of his villas. A peasant farmer lost everything.)

Good job, but I think you should have emphasized even more just how different the Roman (and Greek) concept of religion and divinity was from our own. Until one realizes that in this respect the past was a *very* different country, deifying the emperors can only generate an incredulous "How could *anyone* fall for that??"

We want Constantinople back! Muslins must to give us back now!

i just realised, the romans fangirled over the musicians and lyricists as we do rock stars and boy bands, they fangirled over the gladiators as we do athletes. we are exactly the way we were 2000 years ago, i love that.

We live in the ruins of what used to be a great civilization. Everywhere we look, there are ruins. Everything we build falls apart, and absolutely nothing last forever.

08:16 is the most famous product of Muslims engineering in Spain

I just discovered your wonderful channel and have been binge watching your videos all morning. Of course I subbed!

Why do you say the alies bombed Piza but then say the allies liberated piza? It should be after the allies conquered piza

I remember using a pit like toilet in Rome in the late 60s

Eaten by a bear, fucj

In my opinion, ancient buildings should be rebuilt, but so that they look like ruins and not like ancient times or like a stack of pieces of carved marble.

No wonder Henry Ford said most history is bunk.
