My favourite part about all this is the fact that two different Brutus', 500 years apart, ended both the the Kingdom and the Republic by killing the monarch/tyrant
The first very sucessful. The last very failed, sadly.
Humans never change.
@@williamcurtis2145basically the show rome
The Perennial Cyclical Brutus
@@williamcurtis2145 No it is a coincidence.
The very fact that two different people separated by 500 years fought for similar reasons is miraculous as is.
I bloody knew it'd be Jack.
video you released today was great btw
Bri’ish
Nice job by Jack! Next we need a "Who would be King of the Romans Today?" video.
@@jmulvey371 i do believe a lot of the Romulus and Remus story. people have been actually raised by animals like the story of Dina Sanichar, the story of the roman god mars coming down from heaven is like in the bible verse (Genesis 11:5) except god does not rape but instead looks at the sinful city of Babylon , alba longa is actually a historical place, Romulus ascending to heaven is like the story of Enoch and Elijah, in 2020 archelogies found a tomb which could be the tomb of Romulus and in 2007 they also found postholes of a ancient dwelling and they were made in about 750 BC 3 years after Rome was founded
@@HarryTruman1948 lmao. Imagine actually believing either of those folk tales.
Shakespeare wrote a poem called The Rape of Lucrece that tells the story of Lucretia. I saw it performed as a monologue last year and it was incredible. Definitely an underrated work by Bill.
Famed English composer Benjamin Britten set it to music.

@@HarryTruman1948If your argument for why a historical fact is true is that its like a bible story, you might want to examine your biases.
@@Wertsir because people believe the biblical stories like Enoch, Noah's ark, Adam and Eve etc but don't believe the story of Romulus and Remus even though they have a lot of similarities. even some of the biblical stores sound less realistic like the story of how Noah was 600 when the apparent flood ended
@@Wertsir i just do not know how Abrahamic religions belive stories like the jinn, Adam and eve and so much more but when it comes to stories from roman or Greek polytheism they call it 'mythology'
13:28
"Or, one story says she was a Vestal Virgin and one day visited by a disembodied phallus that rose up out of the Earth."
Wait, wait, please tell us more about that.
I like how from this picture of the Roman Emperors chart at the beginning, you can tell it goes from Caesar to Charlemagne... so for the Emperors, it goes from Augustus to Michael II ( Amorian Dynasty ) who ruled from 820 - 829... so at least it'll cover more emperors than the last chart, that stopped after Maurice.
Last time I was this early the walls of Rome were still being built
Romulus killed Remus because Remus violated the "Pomerium", the Sacred Border of the City, and after that Romulus said "“Sic deinde, quicumque alius transiliet moenia mea!” that means: "So will perish everyone who'll violates my wall!"
That legal argument was only invented retroactively to justify the murder of his brother
That's sic dude
We still don't know if that was his actual motivation or if that was an ad hoc explanation of the murder
This is one of my favorite channels! Whether it's Matt, Jack or any other host. It's just a great place to come to relax, be informed, and entertained. Keep up the amazing work!
No matter how much I try to remind myself that Superbus is pronounced like Superb, I can't help but call him "Super-Bus"
It's not at all odd that there would be two sisters known as Tarquinia. Females did not really enjoy individual identities so usually just were known by their gens name in the feminine form.
Given the mix of mythology and murky records, it's amazing we know anything at all about people who lived 2500 years ago.
the city of Rome got sacked in 390 BC and that destroyed many of its early history 😭although i do believe a lot of the Romulus and Remus story. people have been actually raised by animals like the story of Dina Sanichar, the story of the roman god mars coming down from heaven is like in the bible verse (Genesis 11:5) except god does not rape but instead looks at the sinful city of Babylon , alba longa is actually a historical place, Romulus ascending to heaven is like the story of Enoch and Elijah, in 2020 archelogies found a tomb which could be the tomb of Romulus and in 2007 they also found postholes of a ancient dwelling and they were made in about 750 BC 3 years after Rome was founded
someone might have notice the similarities between the aeneid (the fall of troy, aeneas landing in italy, his progeny founding rome etc)and tolkien's story of the fall of numenor and the founding of gondor and arnor, the line of kings, the names that somehow echo the ancient roman ones..
damn! i didnt think of that. i thought you were gonna say "the similarities between the aeneid and the odyssey"
There's a reason Tolkien is considered one of the best.
Jack, your analysis on a fan-made chart sounds just so awesome!
12:10 Birds have _cloacae._ It's where their poop exits the body, just like a sewer...
This is a perfect complementary to my current history podcast; The history of Rome!
I'm soon on the split of the empire, and the next part of this chart will be perfect for making sense of al the similarly named people trough out roman history!
I hope Historia Civilis gets a collab one of these days, especially if we're doing Roman related topics. I mean, you're both already working with squares so it won't be a hard sell
Agreed
Usefulcharts is changing their charts real fast! I'm a fan of it. I also have my Asian Tree sitting in my room.
I mean the charts are fantastic. I still need to get round to buying one
Would the gens also be similar to clans like in Scotland or Ireland as well?
You have the best looking Pirate Flag Jack Rackam! Do a video on Pirates Timeline!
Awesome creation, props to whoever made it
Quick side note: after Romulus killed Remus, he ordered to have the latter's children, Senius and Ascanius, killed. They managed to escape and found their own kingdom, which is now the city of Siena, named after Senus. It is believed that Ascanius also founded another city nearby, which is now known as Asciano.
*kids pounding their fists in the back of the car* Mettius Fufetius! Mettius Fufetius!
given how that last king turned out, I see why rome had such strong feelings on the matter
Very minor point, but regarding 15:45 - absolutely no one should imagine Nero as a *power hungry* tyrant. If anything, he had the opposite problem.
the man clearly just wanted to be an artist and have a gay wedding
I've always wished someone would make a show about Rome - starting with the founding of Rome through the collapse of the Western Empire to the sack of Constantinople. Make each king or emperor an episode (maybe even episodes about generals, soldiers, senators, etc and other great non-emperor figures) - unless not much is known about them. In which case, throw a few together to make an episode - but the entire history of Rome. I would binge a show like that. And I mean, stay true to history too - not Hollywoodify everything.
The sad thing is that it wouldn’t make money and thus won’t be made
@@Zurtron Definitely true.
I'd love it, too, but they are always over produced and historically inaccurate to shoehorn in as much boobs and gore as possible.
@@hamnchee Yeah - and historically inaccurate, modern narratives and themes.
@@Blalack77 Exactly. It's rare that any character seems to actually have the values and religion of the time and place. They're all 20th century Americans trapped in a time warp.
I'm in love with this channel
There's been some exciting trees recently
Jack, Hello. Would love to see Georgian (the country) Monarch's family trees. Love your channel. Thank you.
I appreciate the subtle sarcasm entwined into the narration :D
Interesting contentent
I'd love to see a chart of the 24 Courses of Priests established by David down to the destruction of the Temple.
And the family courses individually, especially of Abijah since that's John the Baptists dad.
Brilliant, thank you!
I love that the hated Roman Kings the Tarquins ... are the ancestors of all the Roman Consuls and Emperors ...
Great video. I think you should do the Paul brothers family next. That would be very interesting. Also, the bono family sounds just as interesting as the Paul brothers so I think you should give it a try.
I am Moroccan and all I know about Morocco is that it was ruled by seven kingdoms. Please make a video about the kingdom dynasty that ruled Morocco.
Fun fact - legally the kings of Spain are the heirs to Rome, as the last claimant to the title (Andrew palaiologos) willed it to Ferdinand ii of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile
You could also give it to Jean Duke of Paris as Andrew originally sold his title to Charles viii of france
Is there a video for the Roman Republic families who have ruled between the Kingdom and the Empire periods?
My understanding of what I have heard about rape suggests that the victims who survive feel broken and like the walking dead anyway, and that if this walking deadness is in rare cases something advanced progress has found healing for, it should not be immediately dismissed that death is a possible escape from endless suffering.
Every day every hospital in the world makes the choices between life and death both to heal what can be healed, and to eventually decide what can't be. Each case might be nearly impossible to perfectly decide on its own, but the generic principles seem like we can understand exactly why cultures taught certain ideas when their limited resources genuinely would have made it make sense.
In a sense, Lucretia's belief that death was better is actually similar to a modern attitude insofar as both are pursuing the reduction of suffering. I cannot imagine that the people who had no notion of the cures also had no notion of the pains. It obviously must have been the case they knew of the psychological pain and simply had invented no other reliefs for it yet and so thought that death was preferable to what would sound like continuous torture to them.
Perhaps she would be astonished almost to be afraid but perhaps full of hope to think that cures for trauma induced depression would later be found. Perhaps she would resolutely insist that assault causes traumatic insanity which cannot be cured and it is ignorant to believe the pain ever really fades.
I don't think it is actually easy to decide between life and death, after deciding that pain is to be avoided.
In Scripture, what you describe is the broken-hearted. Man sees this as discardable and frames it as compassionate. God sees this as redeemable and evidence of His power. This has been been the choice civilized society is confronted with. Godliness or Godlessness. No man will convince me otherwise based on the Word of God.
Wich program do you use for the charts? Thank you for the great content
I was literally writing a paper on Evolution of Roman Senate during republic
And you guys make a video on Kings of Rome
What are the odds?
BTW awesome video
Not odds. Simply the algorithm and your PC's cookies combined altogether.
@@ptolemeeselenion1542 what ?
I follow this channel for atleast 2years
It's not a random video i found on internet
I got a notification and they released the video Yesterday
So please don't bring Algorithm
@@prathamsaxena9503 Sometimes coincidences happen, nothing special
So, if Romulus killed Remus over which hill to build Rome on, is that where the saying “A hill to die on” comes from?
How about legendary British kings by Geoffry of Mounmut.
I sure would like to know about the family tree that started with Brutus of Troy, and includes King Lear.
Interesting thing about those is that some of them have strong Celtic etymologies but have varying degrees of myth, legend and weak history. So they are realistically plausible as some of the first British kings in history.
@@lucinae8510 yeah. And I said about this because Brutus either son or grandson of Aeneus
@@josephkolodziejski6882 yeah. Thats Great.
The Sabines were not Latins, but they were a distantly related tribe.
the dryness of "Either way" at 13:37 killed me lmao
Great history lesson 👍
I’ve always thought it was odd that the Romans chose to make their culture hero a son of Venus and not a slightly cooler god. Venus doesn’t exactly have the best rap mythologically speaking, usually characterised as a jealous, petty weakling who’s constantly cheating on her husband, and directly responsible for the war that the Roman’s ancestors were horrifically defeated in. Not exactly who I’d choose to claim descent from
Unless we're dealing with Aphrodite. Whom is basically described as such, barring being a weakling, and so much more.
But I think the suffix "ven" in proto-European languages actually means 'the life force" or "strength" and occurs apparently in such words as the "veneti' a people in north western Italy who gave their name to Venice and is probably related to the Germanic tribe of the "Vandals" and the proto-Slavic tribe of the Wends,Thus the American identity Oliver Wendel Holmes has a name ultimately derived from these peoples!
I wonder of he has done a Moon Chart. Since recorded memory, every Moonth. The different colours will have a pattern over time, like a coloured dot number book. In fact the chart should spiral the moons around in time, like the milky way sufis spin.
Please do Who would be King of England/UK/Britain if they had chosen to stick with male-only primogeniture.
Amazing work I really enjoyed it!
… but just noting the Sabines were italic, they were Osco Umbrians but not Latins.
Hi, Useful Charts! Love the new video. I have an idea that I'd like to share. I wonder if Harold Godwinson won the Battle of Hastings, how would be King or Queen of the UK today? Thanks!
That's really impossible to do because Godwinson has no known living descendants as all his son's died without children just after the norman conquest, and his daughter's descendants had prominence in Norway and Eastern Europe, but the Godwin family is now extinct and has been for hundreds of years.
And with a change that big, making the world unrecognisable, it'd be impossible to map that family tree
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
Always happy to have a Rack Jackam guest spot.
Nice
i'll wait.
Noo, bring back Matt baker 😢
"I'll be back." (said in an Arnold Schwarzenegger voice)
Nice!
I always wondered about the succession
maybe try having a go at horatio nelson’s family tree?
Please do a Hindu gods and goddesses family tree
As I was browsing through CZcams I ran across a Crux video talking about Wagner having the last laugh about Mozart. And it struck me. Why not ask you to do a classical string of videos 9n the masters of the classical music. Mozart, Beethoven, Bach, Schubert, Tchaikovsky, Grieg, Rossini. Those should be fun to do. Make it so.
Nice video. Could we get “King of Jerusalem” present day claims video soon?
Outside of the King of Spain and maybe Karl von Habsburg, who else has one?
@@keithharper32 I heard the Kings of Cyprus inherited the claim, and they passed it to the House of Anjou
Unfortunately he said after the Crusader Kings video he wouldn't do it
I thought Rackum had his own channel.
You're so mean. 😂
In parallel universe there's a video called "Kings of Reme Family Tree"
What if you did a family tree of the powerful families of the Roman republic
Hey there! I’m deaf, so I rely on the captioning. Can you please caption this video?
Sorry about that. There was an error on the upload. I just fixed it.
@@UsefulCharts Thank you so much!
@@UsefulCharts Thank you!
Please do a MacLean Family tre!
So dear people, always remember that the Roman mytho-history the Romans themselves proudly told about their own origins was essentially a series of rapes, usurpations, fratricides, mass rapes and some more murder. Oh, and one she-wolf. 😂😂
You think the world has always been similar to what you are living? 😓🫥
Well that's how the world was back then, our ancestors are still the ones who prevailed, and the ones we owe our fealty to
@@RoderickVI Ofc, I did not say the Romans are the only ones, it has always been a brutal world we live in, in many ways still is. But you have to admit that their stories are particularly violent, even by the standards of the ancient world 😁
Bruh.
@@sophiachen2945 You do think that the world has changed? We simply get more men and boys on the ever worse side of r---ing by other men _and_ women, now.
This family tree is brought to you by the Guild of Millers
🎉
Who is your favorite Roman king?
Superbus
None.
No gods or kings. Only man.
depends, are we limiting it to these 7 or the medevil "Kings of Rome" (aka the Holy Roman Emperors)?
@@keithharper32 Those covered in this video.
I believe all founding myths because that makes everything cooler.
♥️
I descent from prince Tiberio Claudio Herculinus son of Claudia Herculina daughter of Claudio Herculanus
Good one it's was totally correct
Funny I just read this last night
Can you make the family tree of Kazakh khans please.
19:39 that decision seems a bit spurious.
Very eager to see roman emperor chart
9:20 hmm Etruscans in the north, Latins in the south - but the pretty vertical dividing line clearly separates them into west and east :D
can you maybe do Majapahit ?
Do something different. Do a non family tree chart. Look at for example George Patton military offensive chart. When and how the subordinates of GP worked.
any other wrestling fans hear him compare the ROMAN kings to TRIBAL CHIEFS and pop off a little? 0:22
Isn't her name Rhea Silvia, not Silva?
Wait…So…”sextus” and that story…is that how we got the word “sex”?
We need to know who would be Emperor of America today, based off of Emperor Norton's family tree.
Dude can you please make a pre Julius Caesar tree with just as much detail as the emperor one so we can connect the 2 charts together on our wall? Would be so cool!
Is Tarquinius Priscus a myth, legend or historical? See what I learned from Useful Charts to be able to ask the question? :)
Babylonian emperor family tree plz
The Roman Empire is something exciting to me.
15:52: Holy heck, was Grand Moff Tarkin inspired by this guy?
Thank you so much!Very nice!May Allah bless you.
Aeneas Chaddus Maximus.
- Dovah-chan.
Mars, why?
Kings of a city- so basically a glorified mayor.
Is Lucius Junius Brutus an ancestor of Marcus Junius Brutus
Yes, a direct one
It's often assumed that it might even have been one of the reasons leading the ways of Marcus
From what I recall from Latin class, all women were named with the feminine version of their father's name officially.
This was true for a period of time, but around the 1st century and later women start getting more unique names.
Have you ever don Bill Clinton’s Family Tree? I’ve never seen his family beyond his Mother and Father (Blythe not step father).
Gens = Scottish Clan (?) Lol
Bring back Matt Baker, his voice doesn't hurt my ears.
5:24 8 king
