So that's it for a few weeks folks. I'm off travelling for a much needed holiday. Hoping to return with a bunch of finished scripts and then straight back into it. So much more to come on Early Medieval Italy, the Abbasids, the Umayyads, Byzantines, Franks, Lombards, Normans and much much more. Don't forget to like and subscribe and let me know in the comments what you'd like to see covered in the future!
Well deserved break. Enjoy !!
Saved your site. Things like this led to the First Crusade.
i'm looking forward to a video on house de Hauteville and the extraordinary Norman conquest of southern Italy, which culminated in the creation of the Kingdom of Sicily. Enjoy your holiday.
Sometime politics are hiden by history -especialy pseudohistory. I mean why else someone claim the utter nonsense that islam is supposelly created by the catholic church if not in an attempt to villify catholic populations like latinos, irish or italians?
You're fighting a losing battle.
Enjoy the holiday, you've earned it.
I live here and I had no idea that the Arabs ever sacked Rome
History is a crazy place
Yeah...Islam tried to invade and conquer Europe for over 1000 years: Toledo Spain in 711 until Vienna 1683 (the croissant). I wonder why all we hear about is the reconquista of the crusades?
Well, all this happened before you were born, ha ha...there is so much history, it can't possibly be taught in school.
@Leigh Barry KKK must have a lot of courses about those matters
I suppose you don't hang up with Salvini. ;)
73 ships, 500 horses and 11,000 soldiers..... the ships had to be MASSIVE!!!!!
Scottie Stell I read a couple of historians who thought it possible that the papal records doubled the numbers of soldiers.
@@HistoryTime Exaggeration of numbers is definitely not unheard of when it comes to Ancient and Medieval sources.
@@jamestang1227 It was common in order to exagerate the threat and legendarise the victory. The greater the threat the greater the danger and the more enemies one kills the more manly and alpha male he is.
6 horses and 150 men per ship? aye mate, massive.
@@Ricky-oi3wv AND their supplies, tac, weapons, provisions; considering boat construction of the time, YES, massive.....
You should think about the Arab-Khazar struggle too.
Very important struggle that shaped the evolution of eastern part of Europe.
Absolutely. That is for another video. The triple struggle between Arabs, Khazars and Byzantines
@@HistoryTime The Khazars really don't get a fair shake because of the conspiracies surrounding them. In reality only the Khan and his immediate retainers would have been Jewish, the "13th tribe" stuff is nonsense.
Classic Turk struggle
Still to this day 🤣, Israel being "New Khazaria"
@@TheSunderingSea Just because you say something is nonsense, doesn't make it so. Your statement, "only the Khan and his immediate retainers would have been Jewish." Do you have proof for that assertion?... and
"the "13th tribe" stuff is nonsense." You're saying Arthur Koestler's book is fabrication? Which parts?
I'm happy you can do this full time! It's one of the best history channels!
watch knowledgia
You should check mine! I have all the degrees and I have access to many forbidden grimoires.
While everyone is shortening to 10 minute videos or revising history, you're keeping it real AF and narrating like a champ! Love your vids before going to bed!
Architecturally it must have been a really interesting time in Rome. The sprawling ancient ruins, new basilicas. Great vid as always, will we hear your brother narrate a history time video?
Oh definitely, must’ve been a strange sight to behold. He’s already narrating all of the Voices of the Past, and will pop up in HT every now and again when quoting from primary sources :)
@@HistoryTime I thought so, I was listening to one VOTP yesterday and noticed it wasn't you.
I imagine it was no different than today, people just went on with their days ignoring all these amazing ruins. When I visited Rome for a Catholic school trip, it felt a little weird seeing people walk past the Coliseum and other sites like "meh, I got to get to the office".
Holy shit its Stefan!
Ruins are actually believers people of the book so it seems that their where people of the book besides people of the Torah. And the furqan came and made landfall.
Interesting video. I have checked out Voices of the past (which I love) and will check out your sci-fi channel sometime soon :) That is super awesome that you are working with your brother on that.

The Arab history is very interesting, as the Middle East region through the centuries was the subject of the struggles of all the empires. Despite that, the Arabs were strong, defeating the empire after another, weakening for a period to regain their strength and return to brutality in their enemy and the victory is amazing.
Arab or Middle Eastern? Because Arabs were but on tribe in the region for most of history. They didn't expand and conquer until the invention of Islam. It became the impetus for the Arab peoples to end up rising and conquering majority of the Middle East and parts of Africa.
And now the arabs are back in the middle ages and italy has envolved to become one of the Most beautiful countries in the World.
Times have changed now they cant defeat Israel despite way over numbering them
@@invoked5114 how about dubai?
@@SefniAsheforr Arabs did have history before Islam in arabia and southern levant like the Ghassanids, Lakhimds, tanukhids, Nabateans, Sabaeans and himyarites
This is awesome. I literally just finished watching the Viking expeditions towards Rome on your channel.
Can we get a video about the Merovingian dynasty and/or samos slavic kingdom at that time?
MrChubbysuperhero Yes absolutely. Samo’s Kingdom is coming later this year, as well as Great Moravia. The early Slavic states are fascinating.
@@HistoryTime What about any documentaries about the Bulgarian Empire wich has done so much for the slavic culture like inventing their alphabet and then baptizing and giving culture and knowledge to most of them(slavs) and its still yet neglected
FRICK YEAH.
also hire people
If you get enough money to pay them
Samo is curiously not well known, in France or Germany in spite of his remarkable achievments :
He was a frankish (probably) merchant/mercenary captain who was chosen by a slavic tribe as a leader for his military expertise.
He united the first slavic "kingdom" in central Europe and even successfully fend off an invasion by Dagobert's army (the last significant merovingian).
Thanks for the vids, I've binging your content for about two weeks, awesome
Thanks very much appreciate it!
No one hate churches in fact they are attracted by the gold in it

I already watched much of youre videos but never knew about the arab sack of rome and the quality of the introduction threw me back too. This is a quality channel covering historical events that practicle none else does, keep up the great work.
Thank you so much!! I was looking for a long video to run in the trendmill!!
Glad to be of assistance!
Really enjoyed this. Congrats and keep up the great narratives.
Thanks very much appreciate it!
73 ships, 500 horses and 11,000 soldiers.., They are hardly Pirates
The word pirates is used to belittle them ! Pirates usually run in small groups not thousands of people

@@monstersamator5288 good point
Damn you're on a higher level than the average documentary! Totally love your content!
Amazing quality, thanks for educating many. You are making the empire's duty
dude youz a legend by yourself for documenting complex history like this
Awesome video.
I hadn't heard of the Naval Battle at Ostia by Pope Leo's forces. Garigliano, i had heard of. It was good to know that we will get to see a discussion of politics between Lombards, Popes, Saracens and the Catepans in the coming years. I've been reading "Normans in the South" of late, and the Catepans were interesting men. Even a cursory reading reveals that the Greeks sent some truly remarkable expeditions into the south, from the time of Nicephorus the Elder all the way down to the time of Comte Robert, and i hope to hear these stories told in your exceptional style.
Great work.
TheSamuraijim87 It’s a fascinating topic. Much more to come on the Lombards of southern Italy. Luckily for us the source material is rich and varied, which as you know is very rare for this period. Having learned this i was very surprised that relatively little has been written on the Lombards
“....Sack Rome” is an extreme misnomer. It was the looting and pillaging of two churches and the surrounding suburbs of the city, all containing civilians. The city walls were never breached. Although many gold and silver religious items were taken as if the invaders knew exactly where to find them in the churches, they never entered the city but did camp outside the walls for some weeks. This leads a lot of scholars today to argue whether it was just a raiding party or a planned invasion. In addition it was not wishful thinking regarding the storm that destroyed part of the fleet. For weeks afterwards Arab bodies were washed on shore containing many of the jewels taken from the sacked two sacked churches. There are also conflicting stories about whether the invaders split into 2 armies and were attacked and defeated as they withdrew. This is one of the repeated perils of relying on ancient or even medieval sources. They were not written by historians rather by religious institutions or by writers slavishly following their patron’s beliefs.
Also a minor point. Rome does not have a harbor. The Arabs would have landed at Ostia and marched the 16 kilometers to Rome.
DesertAres Honest question then, how did the invaders sail up the Tiber? Was there no entry at Ostia?
Quite so, DA. It was, simply put, a clear reminder to the belligerent Christian resistance that nowhere was safe .. from militant Islam. Spain and Asia Minor were the key targets of conquest, brigandage .. or in modern terms terror attacks .. was a nice News Headline side show (and in this case a good little earner).
Of course the assailants knew where to go, what to take, and how to make a spectacle - without having all the fuss of dealing with Rome's walls. The Leonine walls were constructed to offer similar protections to the shrine of St Peter on the Vatican Hill, outside the Aurelian walls. That same pope, St Leo IV, organized a naval coalition to meet - and defeat - a later Saracen assault at the battle of Ostia AD 849.
@@acchaladka The harbour was at Ostia, but the Tiber was navigable for some kinds of seagoing craft. That is DA's point about the possible splitting of the armies used in this smash and grab (terror) attack; the shrines of St Peter's on the Vatican Hill and St Paul's on the Ostian Way were outside the Aurelian Walls and were attacked. However, Rome's major churches, its cathedral and its senior or maternal church were inside the walls, that is, St John Lateral and St Mary Major.
...because historians never slavishly follow a narrative that doesn’t accurately reflect reality.
Walls work!
Very excited to see these independent YT channels get bigger and more resources to produce history videos!
I'm 9 seconds in and I had to pause the video to applaud your fantastic introduction!

Me, an Arab, enjoying the introduction:
"Professional soldiers"
Yeess
"Bloodied from a lifetime..."
Indeed
"...on the high seas"
NANI??!?
I mean yeah the Arabs raided throughout the Mediterranean but equating that to "a lifetime on the high seas" is a bit of a stretch. Most of those boats only went along the coasts I believe. We're not exactly known for our shipbuilding skills.
hhhhhhhhh nani
Frisbetarian Oman during the Arabian empires was infamous for building great ships they were the only region in Arabia known for superb ships
@Chris Perkins they built + bought .. that's for sure
the Arabians were fierce sailors centuries before Islam .. but in Trade
they traded with the Indians .. east Africans since the times of Kingdom of Saba (Sheba) and Kingdom of Dilmon (establish 4th millennia B.C in eastern Arabia) trading with Indus Valley and Sumer
Islam reached Eastern Africa coast lands .. and South East Asia
thanks to Arabian sailors
but yeah
i don't like making things a bit too much .. so i'm not sure about "a lifetime on the high seas"
>Professional soldiers
>Arabs
As an arab something does not add up here :D
@@kesorangutan6170 a Turk pretending to be Arabian ...
trust me .. it does add up, you can ask the Persians and Romans for that
or maybe your ancestors in Central Asia .. because that's how Islam reached them

Lord Erik Yes absolutely. One of my specialties.
@@HistoryTime Glad to hear it :) Looking forward towards Alamans and Fransks especially
@@creakychair9387 Alamanni = "all the men"
@@schechter01 yes i kinda got it from the name.
@@schechter01 franks - "the brave", saxon - "sword men", german - "spear men", teutones - "part of the people/ army", cimbri - "the plunderers", goths - (possibly)" from gotland (that skandinavian island)", bajuwarians -"men of bohemia" etc.. I fear our ancestors really lacked creativity in naming. (Well i guess we continued that tradition of giving uncreative names... "stinky animal", "lazy animal", "flying stuff" etc.)
Just found your channel and I am really digging it. Just a quick question could you link your sources in your descriptions or links for further learning. Thanks for your hard work and I hope you keep it up.
Love this channel. Thankyou Mate .

Imagine what the idea of (Western) "Rome" must have been like to them. By 846 the fall of Western Rome was 300 years ago, in the Western Europe Charlemagne was ruling as a new Emperor.
300 years ago from today is 1719. Imagine until 1719 there had been an Empire that had stretched across say all of Europe, then ceased to exist, and now you're looting what used to be its capital
Cheydinal like if youre looting London basically
@@yavyav2281 I mean, even London was an Empire until after WWII. So more like the Holy Roman Empire, I suppose, which stopped existing around 1800 (would be a better comparison if the HRE had actually had had real power)
I am into history but I have never heard of this. You are doing amazing work. Please keep it up
Wow…the writing of this narration is outstanding! I’ll be looking for more from you. Thanks
Can you do a vid or series about Steppe peoples of any era? I fell in love with the Scythians/Sarmations of Hellenistic period, slightly before and after.
I love how that lifestyle in that area of the world persisted for centuries. Could even say they produced the best pound for pound empire in the Mongols but idk if its right to include them in the same group as the Scytho-Sarmations but they're obviously steppe people so I consider them all cousins in a way. Even though they would have probably cut each others heads off and eaten the others' family. They were all lorss of the horse!
Absolutely. I’m gradually covering the entire history of the Seljuk Turks. I will also be covering many more steppe nomads. One of the most fascinating of all subjects in history.
Afaik Mongols incorporated all the forces that submitted to them. So if Sarmatians submitted, they would be plundering together.
@kiril marinov Check the comment that I am replying to. Obviously they cannot cut each others' heads off, too. These are just hypothehical comments.
@kiril marinov Ok troll
calling the arabs of that time pirates is the same as calling alexander a pirate
There is a difference between THE arabs and those arabs, don't you think?
@Samer Nattifi Well in a wider sense of the word theiy were pirates as they came by ship and intended to raid (similarly to the vikings of the same time if we look for other European experiences)
In a more narrow sense of the word, the corsairs between the 16th and 19th century bc are the best example of muslim pirates in the Mediterranean sea.
But I guess it is it that narrow definition makes more sense, so I partly agree with you.
@Samer Nattifi They DID however go there to plunder.
Capturing slaves was one of the targets for example.
Also the Ottoman corsairs have nothing to do with the Umayyads. Just some 500years+ in between.
And thinking that just because someone is rich he/she will not use a means to become even more rich is ridiculous.
@Samer Nattifi I mean I too think that some of the history told in the video is a bit biased, but you are next level, just the other way.
No Slaves? Are you kidding or deluded?
Imo this kind of delusion is at the heart of why the Arab World is in that state. You should listen more to university professors instead of the imam.
Before you exposed your "knowledge" by putting the Osman corsairs into the 10th century bc. and now this?
What are you doing here?
I will not waste more time. bye.
@Samer Nattifi Mohammad had slaves. He bought a slave Merium al Qibtiya, she wasn't even married to him but he had a son with her.
Stop being an apologist.

I have observations on the narrative of this historic event. The comparison of Arabs and Muslims to the Viking people is a great injustice, and a repetition of the description of plundering and enslavement is unacceptable at all!
Muslims and Arabs brought new civilization with them to almost everyplace they went to, for example
Andalusia in Spain and India and the borders of China, unlike the Viking savage!!
But according to your words, it is my right to describe the Roman Empire as a plundering and enslavement empire!!

Wonderful news that you can do this full-time. You have done an amazing job
Thanks for making this video. The history shared here is often just a footnote in high school/college world history courses. Now is this still considered "The Dark Ages", or is this as you say early medieval (I know, dumb question). It must have been one hell of a time to live...never knowing when your city/village would be raided by attackers from another land.
Any chance we could get a video on the history of the Emirate of Sicily?
.. and videos on Sicily under Roger II de Hauteville and Friedrich II Stupor Mundi ?
Great Video!
Good job, man!
Will you ever do a video on Emperor Theophilos? He had to fight quite a few battles. From his movies leading camp again in the east to fighting in Anatolia and into the fertile crescent. Also has refugees coming into the empire from the east, and appeals for help to the est to fight the invaders (that fell on deaf ears, however).
Yes, massive armies and naval conflict.
This is among the best presentations of primary source of human history I have ever seen. Having just read the Myth of the Andalusian Paradise, this sharply brings the aftermath of the fall of Rome, to technicolor life. Sets the imagination into high gear. A fine effort, pictorially captivating, scholarly methodology that is entertaining. Thank you dear sir.
Thank You for this beautiful video.
I look forward to watching all your documentaries. Imp;ressive narration and delightful imagery
Gosh, I hadn't realised the Muslim kingdoms had reached so far around the Mediterranean. No wonder the modern extent of Islam extends to this former border - minus the edge territories of Spain and India, cultural blending being what it is.
I heard somewhere that the Saracen pirates sacked a village somewhere in modern day Switzerland. I dont know how they got there lol but again they were raiders
@@omarn7650 Wasn't just a raid, they set up an Emirate, called Fraxinetum. Would've lasted longer if not for the Magyars.
Islamic empires reached as far as the Arctic
Back in the day going plundering was like having a company today and going IPO on the stock exchange
Congratulations on your new status! So glad you managed to reach such a step thanks to your videos.
Great storytelling in my opinion, always a hard task to overcome when dealing with our History. And I feel like in this one, you found a great balance between music and commentary, even in the field of volume. What Dagon, Lovecraft? And I didn't know about this chan? I'm such a moron!
Edit: you always refer to Arabs but what about the Berber proportion in such raids ands piracy actions. I remember when I first read about Al-Andalus yeaaaaaars ago, one of the first thing that stroke me was the Berber proportion in the Muslim armies. And as you know it lead to many internal crisis among other reasons! Thank you for your help in this matter.

Yes true
under the Caliphate true but they were an Automanmous state in North Africa "iFRIKIA" "Tunisia along the eastern part of Algeria and west of Libya" with their own Capital Kairouan, that time the Caliphate had spiritual status even Autonomous or Independent states recognize the caliphate as the true ruler of all Muslims ,

What makes you brainwashed is your apparent aggressiveness to anyone who doesn’t know about the glory of Arabic Islam.

Had no idea this even happened. Great vid
A truly outstanding video. I'd love to see you do a feature on the Macedonian Dynasty of the Romans.
The Norman’s sorted them out sooner or later
They did more than that.
So sad to see Western descendants of today are so ashamed of their great and proud history. I blame the weak leftists.
Alexander Best Arabs & Muslims ruled the Mediterranean Sea from 800-1700 CE and then Europe and now America & Israel.

Your videos are so unbiased. Usually people get too political with history, aka bring modern drama into it.
Naturally.
I love your channel "History Time". Many historic subjects that are overlooked in other places. I also love you accent. Is it scottish? I ask because it reminds me of Ewan Macgregor. I am from Denmark, so I may be wrong in my guess.
Yay for History Time!
I always wonder what it must have been like living in Rome during the "dark ages", from a city of over 1 million to 10,000 at its lowest point, from great philosophers and orators like Cicero, great statesman and generals like Caesar, to illiterate peasants living and farming in the streets of the forum and Colosseum. It must have been very strange indeed.
@Syed Ahmed The middle east is nothing like that.
@Syed Ahmed Iraq isn't the entire middle east.
@Syed Ahmed Since when are Tunisia, Libya and Egypt considered middle eastern? Also, those other countries aren't as bad as you try to make them seem to be.
@Syed Ahmed No definition of the middle east includes north Africa as a part of it. The middle east is from Egypt to Iran and from Turkey to Yemen, and the Sinai peninsula is the only reason Egypt is considered middle eastern
must have felt like Mad Max
