By the way, one of the main reasons Rome had a bitchin' army was because they treated their troops REALLY well. Not only was it considered a very respectable job with generous pay, but the families were also compensated since the working men were gone at war. In short, Rome had a poppin' VA. I'm a hoe for ancient rome because of how effiencent and organized it was.
Every man had to go into the army though, or maybe I'm thinking of Sparta
@@oliviathompson3271 that's Sparta you're thinking of, enlisting was optional in Rome, which is why it had so many promising returns for the soldiers; in some points in roman history military service was rewarded with land (I *want* to say Caesar did this but I might be thinking of some consul before him) , which was pretty much the most valuable thing you could get.
True, those lands were usually on regions conquered by the army and, double true, conquered regions had a nasty tendency for undergoing uprisings (in which case being one of the people directly responsible for taking over their land wasn't exactly the best thing in the world), but even so, if you took the military career in Rome you *could* go from begging for food and change to owning your own little farm with your family living nearby your best friends for your retirement in some 20 to 40 years of service. That was very alluring.
Also they had regular orgies and slaves. That's also very neat.
How Do you feel about the genocide that they comitted this battle being basically gauls last hope of stopping that
I think they started training around the age of when they turn teenagers
"They were left to starve to death between the walls."

Yeah, that was really out of character for Ryan. Could see Shane doing it, but Ryan? I was like "damn."

I dont understand why people dont fangirl over history. History is so amazing
@@insanatty Ikr. So many shows take inspiration from actual events. Truth is stranger than fiction. Go pick a history book, people, there's comedy, drama, action and a lot of pain.
The desperate "Sara" of Shane's at 8:57 is my fav lmaoo. The way Ryan and Sara and everyone kind of forgot about history for a moment and jumped straight to aliens... Leaving Shane behind 😭😭😭
6:06 “this week on buzzfeed unsolved we in cover the mystery of who killed Ryan Bergaras neighbor”
Shane: “Also Ryan now has a 2 bedroom apartment”
Obsessed with this comment 😂
Daily reminder that Shane and Ryan carry this channel
For real
Very true!!! Nicely put.
Everyone else just seems like they're trying way too hard.
LuminaryPrism75 i agree, but i’m still tired of the same comment on all of their videos by people who are hungry for likes.
Daily reminder that Shane and Ryan carry his channel
They have their own channel now with Steven! It’s called watcher go follow
Dude we don't talk enough about how creative, detailed and invested Shane is in producing, especially in anything related to history. Seriously. 1rst ruining history now Puppet History, and he always puts so much detail and effort into what he makes. You can tell he really enjoys it. Love you Shane
Sarah: I’m gonna say it’s aliens!
Shane: No, Sarah. Don’t convert
I love how Ryan looks genuinely touched by Shane's sports reference

COMPARING WAR CRIMES TO HOME ALONE
Home Alone is a war crime!!!!
That child committed war crimes.
Um what war crimes with the exception of vercingetorix in Caesar’s triumph (parade) everything the Romans did on the brutality front was fairly standard in that time (including the execution at the end)
Gauls invaded Rome in 390 BC and killed 100,000's, Hannibal from Carthage invaded Rome in 232 BC and killed 1,000,000 people, men, women and children. War on both sides was horrific. In 112 BC Germans and Celts invaded Rome and wiped out 4 Roman Armies and killing 100,000's before General Marius was recalled from Africa to fight them. Tell the whole story, the whole truth, or not at all.
If there are no definitions of a war crime you can't commit them
shane’s girlfriend and best friend teaming up to annoy him is **chef kiss**
Ryan: If I could kill my neighbor and get away with it..
*looks directly at camera*
I wouldn't do it.
Nice save.
Okay, Ricky Goldsworth
Time stamp?

Shane: This is like Home Alone
Me: more like “Rome Alone” AHAHAHAHAHA
I’ll just stop now
No no keep going
Yess
I made the upvotes an even 500. That was satisfying
Shane: It's like Spiderman kissing Batman,"
Sara: "Oooooo~"
This whole series is just fantasy fuel for Sara, isn't it?
''Who strangled him?''
''I don't know.''
This will remain...Unsolved.
Owlsome Romans, it's custom, after you parade the man, you kill him in the dark of night.
They should have put him to fight with gladiators or multiple animals. That would have been great amusement for the people of Rome xD
I AM DYING
Traditionally, Caesar would do it himself as a show off dominance.
When your girlfriend and your ghoulfriend team up for ultimate destruction
How do you have so much subscribers
Amazing
shit's gonna go down
Every person on this panel has now been on Puppet History. Except Shane, of course. They really should invite him.
Ryann Graham was my favorite guest, on my favorite episode Hatshepsut.
Well you just might get your wish granted this season
Huh. Looks like I got smacked in the head with Apollo’s tetherball of prophecy.
Zach: “Like Nebraska why do we need it?”
Me (In Nebraska): Ya know he’s making a valid argument
Hey, we have a great zoo :(
Yeah we do. It grows the food. Cities starve without the country.

Well back then is was just Roman
Leah, I think I love you for that.

Ryan laughing maniacally at the starving civilians has the same energy as Shane laughing at the 'execution breakfast' story.
Zach: just like Nebraska, there’s nothing there.
Me, a Nebraskan: Not correct, but not wrong.
I was def mildly offended, then I was like...well...
I am a little offended
For any history nerds, Caesar allowing Vercingetorix to be strangled was still an honor. At the time, it was seen as the best most honorable/respectable way of execution. It was clean, with no blood, and allowed for proper burial after death.
Luca James I thought getting stabbed on the back neck was an Honorable death.
Decanus Gaius Publius Cleaner, but blood was still seen as a more dishonorable death!
Luca James I mean yeah, bloody but painless and quick, tho.
But if your not wrong.
Decanus Gaius Publius Being quick was only part of it, albeit still a part! Strangulation was usually kept for powerful/influential leaders as far as I know, making it all the more "honorable" death.
Luca James I see.
Shane looking down is honestly the cutest thing ( _"It's not that sweet."_ )
what a cute tsundere!
Fun Fact: The term barbarian was used, at the time, by the romans to refer to basically anyone who didn't come from the roman empire. It basically just meant foreigner
Indeed! Spesifically it meant 'non-Roman-speaker/language'. So in a way it's Blahbarian for 'blah blah blah'.
@@EBirchall1”Boring. I don’t care about you, you’re not one of us.” Basically.
Rome wasnt an empire at this time it was a republic. Julius Caesar ended that after winning the roman civil war
The gladius was short and lightweight enough to be easy to stab into your opponent. Longer swords you have to swing. And Rome was able to mass produce good weapons for their soldiers, an impressive feat given Rome fell 1600 years before the Industrial Revolution.
And it was used very well with their tutsudo tatics?
@@elliotgregory3356 I know this reply is a year late, but the testudo was used only to repel incoming enemy missiles. Honestly, many things were failed to be mentioned in the video, but it’s understandable. Vercingetorix was strangled and although no one knew who strangled him, he was strangled during the parade as it was a tradition for Roman Generals bringing home their captured enemy leader to do.
@@elliotgregory3356 the Gladius worked so well with the Romans and was effective because of the Roman’s tactics and equipments. Specifically the rectangular shield they carried, the scutum. Similar to a Greek phalanx, a Roman cohort would move as one, shoulder to shoulder and their shield locked besides one another. The enemies get close, and the weapon that was more special than the gladius I am sad they didn’t mention, was the pillum, which was a Roman javelin mass produced for every legion to carry about three of them. What’s special about these javelins is that they ain’t normal spears for throwing. Their real purpose was to be thrown and pierce the enemies shield and the head of the pillum would be thin enough to bend, but not break, having the heavy shaft of the javelin weigh the shield down, making the enemy either drop their shields or fight inefficiently. Being killed by the pillum was just a plus one.
@@elliotgregory3356 what’s more important to note is that the Roman’s are basically like this statement. “I’ll copy your homework, but I’ll get a higher score than you.” Most of what the Romans had were all stolen, inspired, or borrowed.
Thank you for your response. V informative
“Did you put that sports reference just for me?” “Yeah...” MY HEART!!!
you know what ppl keep saying Shane's possessed and stuff but nobody ever mentions how Ryan just casually said he'll murder his neighbour or Shane in some episodes, like the voodoo ep and the one where they were talking about having a zombie face.
I'm pretty sure people who say shane is a demon also say ryan is a serial killer
Hello welcome to the unsolved fandom... keep scrolling stranger, nothing to see here
Ryan=Ricky Goldsworth
Shane=Demon
Demon Shane+Ricky Goldsworth= *Gay Serial Killers*
Ivan Ocean Eyes get out
Shane is actually an angel here to protect Ryan, that's why he's never afraid of ghosts and demons.
Bruh, this Julius guy is kinda doing a Home Alone on Steroids or something
The way he says, "SARA!" Like a dad who's had enough.
Shane looked so disappointed that they all were saying that aliens were involved in building the wall
A man after my own heart
His own girlfriend calling alien lol betrayal
"They were left to starve in between the walls."
Cue Ryan's sadistic laughing.
Ryan: "Did the Gauls have, like, magical powers?"
Shane: "Absolutely not."

I was hoping someone would be making this reference!
I am still so disappointed nobody at the table made an Asterix joke.. :'D

Edit: wait I suppose we are also France’s neighbours tbh, if you don’t mind the channel in the way
14:14 “For a history point! What did Caeser do?”
Saved his men from starvation, and not giving the edge to his enemies.
08:52 when your girlfriend betray you for your boyfriend
morrris97 YOU DESERVE TO BE PINNED
morrris97 YES
I can’t wait for history to quote us too. Instead of “The wariness and energy of that bogeymen are terrifying” we would be quoted saying “my boi was fucking crazy”
It's all good HAHAHAHAHAHAH OMFG
That's brilliant
I cant wait still they get the nokias vs the ipads in the museums XD
It's all good dude I fuckin love you
Barbarians were, originally, just people who didn't speak Latin, I believe.
Kinda correct, Barbarians were what the Romans called non-Roman/Latin and non-Greeks/Hellenistic folk. And once rome invaded the gauls, they were no longer called Barbarians since they became part of the roman civilization.
Barbarian was originally the Greek word for people who were not Greek/didn't speak Greek (though Greece wasn't unified at the time), before the Romans took the word and changed it to mean 'uncivilised' people who are neither Greek nor Roman.
It is bearded way back.
I FUCKING LOVE LEARNING 🤓👏
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, it was sort of pejorative since it the word originated from the bahh-bahh bleating of sheep, so basically, barbarians were a bunch of lowly animals.
You missed the aftermath of the war when Caesar could not conquer a particular Gaulish village in Amorica because a druid was brewing magic potions to the village warriors.
Glad to see some fans of asterisx just joking about the existence of the ting gaulish village that is amorica.
Buzzfeed: Lets stop making ruining history
Everyone: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Everyone: Stabs their neighbor
Shane made a new show "puppet history" on his new channel (w/Ryan & Steven Lim) called Watcher.
@@aidentai6249 They obviously didn't leave, seeing how they're still doing Buzzfeed Unsolved.
Christine C. They did leave, but they’re still doing Unsolved as freelancers. Shane has a show similar to Ruining History calmed Puppet History and it’s great! There are also wacky songs
@@englishatheart I think they have contracts for certain seasons I'm not sure though.
As a very right wing person I hate Buzzfeed but this video was fun to watch.
"What's a Gal Gadot?"
Legendary.
Shane's agressive "You ARE A GOOD PERSON, RYAN" is adorable and wholesome
I love that this was almost 5 years ago, and all of these guests have also been on Puppet History. Its nice seeing so many of their relationships last so long past Buzzfeed.
SHANE LITERALLY PUT A SPORTS REFERENCE IN FOR RYAN ....AND I CAN'T EVEN GET A TEXT BACK
Veronica IsBatman the softest ship
what is actually a sport reference?
So sweet small ship I don’t usually ship things in real life unless it’s canon or just Phan, because have you seen Phan? But such sweet it is at *LEAST* brotp
STOP TEXTING THE WRONG PEOPLE
wat
at 9:02, did y'all see Shane's face when Sara mentioned aliens and all the others agreed?? that was the look of defeat
For all the bald people out there uhh here’s a comeback thingy 😂
“God made perfect heads but he put hair on the ones he messed up”
😂 that was good one 😂
It really is 😂
Shoutout to this episode for, last year, giving me the idea for what I should do my oral latin exam on. I actually ended up translating the text at 7:45, lmao. Fun times - I got a good grade on it
Ryan saying he would kill his neighboor to get an extra bedroom... Yeah and he would spend every night thinking about the ghost he just created until he turns insane.
Pierre-Louis Parent I think that was Ricky Goldsworth talking. 😆
Emily Che A+ reference
We need a S2 Of Ruining History !!!!
YES
Approve!
Pleaseeeee
YESS INDEED ABSOLUTELY!!!!
ikr
It is constantly infuriating to me that they mock Sara for being RIGHT about swords
14:00 How i thought it was gonna go:
Vercingetorix: Caesar would have to let innocent citizens through
Caesar: *So anyway, I started blastin'*
If Shane was my history teacher and he every hour was a story like this...man I would be an expert and ace every test
i had a histroy teacher like that... he was amazing, we all loved it
JerseySnore78 i have a history teacher like that right now
Proof that history isn’t boring our set teaching style is
“and he every hour was a story like this” ....? Huh?
The civilians are left to starve between the walls;
Ryan laughs like a maniac
"why would you fight for these people"
National pride, delusions of grandeur, and guarantee of pay.
Roman soldiers were awarded with land and huge lump sum of money after their service was finished. And the ones who weren't citizens were granted Roman citizenship. That's probably the main reason they fought.
@@Jonmad17 Also they could climb up the ranks becoming a senturian (a espected rank) or even a general or they could go back to Rome to become a tribune.
I love how everyone else is disturbed by the story and Sara and Ryan are just having a blast. Love them.
1:20
Shane: no, I- I’m not nice, it wasn’t that nice
Everyone else: awwww shaneeeeee ❤️❤️❤️
Did you see him blush when Sara said "awwwwwwwww!!!"
oh fvck off.... *wheezzz
If Shane were my history teacher, I’d love school.
He's good at presentation but what he says is often very inaccurate and he often downplays intelligence of ancient civilizations.
Preparing you to fail in life
The friends with him except ryan are the smoothest brain people I have ever seen.
I had instructor who had Shane vibes he does gives us pointer in dark history, politics and philosophy we totally love sitting his lesson. but in grades, pray that you can pass Gandalf
Lol same
SO PISSED they didn't make more of these, "Ruining History" episodes!! Shane did such a GREAT JOB!!!
That’s what puppet history is for!
for history beginners like me, i googled about the gladius and apparently it was the best weapon for the Roman army at that time because it was a double edged cut and thrust sword so it was very useful for a deep wound. Unlike the long sword which is quite useful against a plate armor and the saber which is better on horseback, the gladius was relatively short which made it ideal for hand to hand combat and also in smaller spaces
You know, I actually really love it when Shane is the one narrating
I knew I was not the only one.
The editor needs a fucking raise
18:55 "Sh*t, they're doing the turtle thing" I got a good chuckle out of that one.
Nobody else is realizing this is what the 3 walls from Attack On Titan are based on. Help me the quarantine is melting my brain.
no 3 walls is a very common castle defense technique.
@@onemansvoice9132 2 walls maybe but 3 walls was fucking huge. thats like constantinople levels
Sara, most swords at this time had a rounded tip which wasn't that great for stabbing. The Roman Gladius had a V-shaped tip, which made it so superior compared to other swords of its time in the stabbing arena.
Also a comparatively wide blade. Almost like a viking longsword, but short enough to be handled one-handed.
@@melaniemagolan2241 Which is a key factor to allow units to fight in close formations, where legionaries could protect each other with their shields
With all that put into context, Gladius gains relevance
Also, blades made in a triangle shape (as in, it has three sharp edges instead of two) make it much harder for the wounds to heal.
Are we going to ignore the fact that Caesar was described as bald yet every depiction of him had hair?
You know... those Europeans and their wigs
I-Am-Not-A-Robodt He was balding and vain about it. Caesar was given a laurel wreath for his accomplishments on the battlefield, and began wearing it all the time, as it covered some of the bald spots. The depictions, thus, could make him appear as having more hair due to the wreath. Another explanation could be that if he were vain about the baldness, he might have instructed artists to depict him as having hair in his portrayals (this part, however, is only speculation)
He was balding. But Romans liked to give each other endearing insults, so they called him bald.
You'd be bald too if you had to worry about all that fighting and strategizing. And you thought final exams were bad.
I-Am-Not-A-Robodt yea my minds blown
Ryan “I’m not the surgeon general” Bergara
History is written by the victors and Julius Caesar literally wrote a book about this event.
alright one last comment, ryan's "did you put that reference in just for me?", sara's awww, and ryan's "that's sweet" is the cutest thing i've ever seen, i live for this interaction alone from now on
K Memery I FANGIRL at this it was soo cute
Yass! I rewound immediately!
Plus Shane's tsundere comment of "it's not that sweet.."
BRING BACK RUINING HISTORY I WILL RIOT BUZZFEED DO YOU HEAR ME
Im still waiting the series is fun and interesting
Buzzfeed isn’t funding them anymore so shane made his own on the Watcher channel
You need to be more bold
*LIKE THIS*
Shane now runs Puppet History
Your mom WHAT! what happen now buzzfeed supernaturals?
I do want to note that when it came to sieges, especially back in the ancient Greek and Roman times, building a wall to starve out your opposition was a very common and effective strategy, and would often be responded to with a "Counter wall" to prevent your city from being closed off from resources.
You know, as someone who is studying for a Roman History exam, this is the freaking funniest thing ever. Because them talking about Roman History is like someone talking about a popular tv show they haven't really watched, so their knowledge is based on the little information that went into mainstream culture. It's beautiful.
can we all just appreciate the editing tho? like dammnn...
right?! it's so gooood
And the art too ❤️
Sarah: "ALIE.."
Shane: "NO. SA-RAH"!
Still the best part of this video
Jemimah A “Don’t do this!” 😂😂😭

You spelled it wrong.
Erin Neko YES

I mean... maybe.
5:57 “Nebraska. There’s nothing there!”
As someone from Nebraska, I can confirm, there is nothing at all.
“he’s getting like DOUBLE PENET-well” caught himself lmaoo
shane only invited short people to this one so he could seem taller than ever
@ 15:30 Shane is actually right in calling them missiles. They were definitely using more than just arrows, lots of javelins and rocks got slung around in medieval skirmishes. Pretty much any lethal projectile was a missile. It's why the term is used as it is today.
Um this wasn't set in the period history considers medieval, that is seen as the point after the fall of the western Roman empire. But you are right about the missiles for Romans, archery was used by some people that made up auxillary forces of the Romans others used slings, the legionaries themselves used javelins called pilla at this time
6:08 Ryan just had straight up Ricky Goldsworth energy
I picture Caesar entering the battle was like Thor entering Wakanda from Infinity war
Same 😂
I love how buzzfeed uses Ryan and Shane in the thumbnail for clickbait. It definitely works for me
Next Buzzfeed Unsolved is gonna be about Ryan’s neighbor
Hahaha shane is a tsundere XD
KittyC. I meant ryan lol
I think my favourite part of rewatching the Shane Cinematic Historical Universe is realizing that a lot of Puppet History guests were guests on Ruining History
The animation on each and every one of these videos is amazing. I have seen so much of 'Ruining History' episodes and I cannot even imagine how much effort goes into making them. The little comments are one of my favorite things.
Ryan: Did you put that sports reference in just for me?
Shane: Yea, I like to... keep it- entertaining...
Ryan: that’s sweet
Shane: (mumbling) it’s not that sweet
FR WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT HOW ADORABLE THAT WAS like it's a wholesome ”no homo” moment
@@Cvnt_blvnt ...
Tsundere Shane is the best.
Sara in the background: Awwww
@@Cvnt_blvnt you could have kept that "no homo" for yourself.
Shane is a better history teacher than mine at school
I just wanna why know why we watch crash course with John green in history instead of this 😭
Because while very entertaining, it´s not very accurate. Some things are oversimplified and some, frankly, pulled out of thin air, like that boner story. Not hating, I love these videos, but please don´t take the content for accurate information, i.e. to study. You´ll have a lot of questions about your sources otherwise :)
lyra Amethyst And WAYYYY more interesting
lyra Amethyst ikr he's funny but also doesn't get off track... If he does he quickly redirects himself and everyone else back to the subject at hand. He keeps it real AND he brings cute little diagrams
Kirsten Martin honestly yeah
6:26
Lost it at "baristas hate him"
I prolly would have put "ver..vincent" on his latte cup
