You know the empire is in decline when Jupiter himself strikes the Emperor with lightning
Magi sorcerery
And Mars did not grant Valerian favour!
I know you're joking, but Carus was actually killed by the Persians. Roman propaganda was silly enough to blame his death on a lightening strike in order to cover up the humiliation, kind of like how they tried to cover up the killing of Gordian III by the Persians and the capture of Valerian in battle rather than during negotiations.
@Pedophile Mohammed Your comment is an irony. There's peace in Iran because of the AYatollahs.

U are Stupid.
Well, I disagree that the Sassanids destroyed themselves moreso than that basic human greed and distrust from the people did. The govt. of the Sassnid Empire have actually been much more stable and competent than any other nations of their time. You can't control monetary losses due to people drifting away from their policies, or lunatic mass-murderers from carrying out their violent whims.
I still believe Persian Empires still do things best, despite their inevitable fall. And firstly that comes from investing more in consolidating your culture and customs and forms of thinkings (Iranians) than investing in violence or violent control of people (Greeks, Arabs, Mongols, etc.)
This is why after 2550 years, Iranians are still Iranian, practing an Iranian thought process, and practicing Iranian culture, on Iranian soil. The same cannot be said for its past enemies.

IS it the History of Persia? Or you want to make, everything happened in Iran, Persians? . Have ever read what Ardawan calls Ardasher Sassany in his letter? He calls him "your nomadic Kurd, the son of nomadic education... .., How dare you call your self Shahansha? Tell me what this tells you about Sassanids. You can read this in Tabaries history.
Wow thank you so much for this Epimetheus! I picked an interest for the Sassanid empire as a result of me being also fascinated with the Eastern Roman empire and so I appreciate this video about the Sassanids. They’re definitely a civilisation worth knowing about for me.
Thanks Aristedes! Same here. I first read about them years ago concerning their interactions with Rome, and the more I have read on them since I am shocked there is not more content, movies documentaries on them because they played such an important central role in history for such a long time.
Epimetheus yes indeed they played a role for a long time. I can’t help but reflect on the fact that the roman empire lasted long after the Sassanids were gone.
Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. And terrorists (puppets of the Antichrist) who misinterpret verses, out of ignorance and political motivations, and take them out of historical context (just like radical atheists do by the way), don't help either. Thank you very much for your time.
Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them).
Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy.
Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).
Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning!
Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures.
Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement.
It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them.

Persia and Spain,.two of my favorite places( only been to Spain though, but would love to visit Iran)...trabaja bien mi amigo!
@Godtuber Adibu born in California
Isn't your name Persia?
why are you in spain, and not iran
Ancient Hoplite Parsa means noble in Persian. It's a different word than Pars (Tho might share the same origin becuz they sound really similar) which means Persis or you could say Persia( I don't think there is any equivalent for Persia in the Persian language since such terms were never used.)
The Sassanid Empire was as powerful and rich as the Roman Empire. The Sassanid Empire internal politic was baseon the balance of power between the king, the nobility and the priesthood. the Sassanian Empire foreign policy was base on fighting the Roman Empire and the Central Asian nomads. Three Roman Emperors died in war with the Sassanian empire. Epimetheus great video and nice animation.
Too bad they didn't last as long as the romans did
Yea bro . Those morally curropt and abusing zoroastrian prists were the bane of those kingdoms always . Injecting toxic life styles and rotting courts after a few generations in with a dynasty
All three fell at the hands of Shapur
It was not as rich and powerful as the Roman Empire before the split. It was a match for the Eastern Roman Empire but the Romans always were stronger due to them having a higher population base, high urbanisation, industry and bigger economy.
@@zippyparakeet1074 well still 3 roman emperors still fell to shapur i even before the spliit valerian, godian, phillip got destroyed lmao shapur captured valerian first time ever that a roman emperor is taken
"After 60 years of peace with Rome, he started to wage war" that says it all about how the Empire ended.
Only a fool would interrupt an era of peace as good as that one. Its a shame, the whole middle east is islamic now because of it.
@@saeedvazirian Diplomacy was often times called "war by different means" for the Romans, the fact their rivalry started with a random invasion from Crassus shows it was never going to last
@@christianriddler5063 and why is that a bad thing? Islam objectively aided the Persian people to find their best selves. The search to understand Allah through Science led to Persian scholars being the backbone of Islamic Scholasticism.
@@sobitasadullah4517 Look at the technological and societal difference between Western Europe (which was Christian) and the Middle-East (which was islamic) during the dawn of the modern era (1800s) and you will see how detrimental that religion was to the progress of the Persians and the rest of the Middle-East. You will also see how Christianity did the exact opposite of islam not only in scripture but also in economic as well as societal results. Turns out that if you have a peaceful religion like Christianity your civilisation becomes much more powerful than any other. It's the will of God.
@@christianriddler5063 your interpretation of history lacks nuance. From the Early Middle Ages to the 1200s, Islam was the centre of culture, knowledge, and wisdom. Scientists sought to understand Allah through his creation, and revolutionized mathematics, geometry, astronomy, medicine, biology, physics, chemistry, engineering, and so on. Christians were fighting amongst themselves, trapped in Europe at war. But then the Black plague came. Then the Mongol horde. Then the Timurids. Tens of millions of people died in the Islamic world, first to disease, then to the world's worst murderers. As a result, the islamic world adopted conservative traditions to cling onto what stability was left. It could have recovered if it wasn't for the Europeans, whose enlightenment ideas were found by rediscovering Greek and Roman culture from conquering Al-Andalus and (for a time in the Crusades) Jerusalem, found two new mostly uninhabited continents with resources that were completely untouched. At that point Christianity outpaced Islam. But then when it comes to ages of Science among Christians, the 1700s Enlightenment and age of revolution only came from essentially abandoning Christianity. The West adopted Secularism and Atheism, and abandoned religion in general.

Thank you brother ❤️
Thanks man. The Iranian era before Islam, everything looks great
@@tsuki5284 You mean everything looks bad
A great nation like Persia should always try to rise again!
Already has. Iran is virtually practicing an identical style of govt. as the Achaemenids.
@@saeedvazirian i don't think it s like achemenied empire. But I hope it s get stronger. But u gotto admit Iran has redicoules rules and it shouldn't be Islamic . shariaw law ,hejab force,killing a Muslim when he leaves Islam and etc.
just rose to be called terrorist by bunch of Yankees
@@saeedvazirian Like the either guy said. If this style is identical, then the Achaemenids really were the "bad guys" after all.
@@Userius1 Not quote. Irony as you say that but somehow consider the ancient Persians as 'better.'
Love the way you combine your knowledgeable content and self made graphics
Man I've just started binge watching your videos, they're efficiently informative, and include witty remarks. It's very fun to watch them. Thank you!
One of the best historical educational video I’ve ever seen on CZcams! 👍🏻
Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. And terrorists (puppets of the Antichrist) who misinterpret verses, out of ignorance and political motivations, and take them out of historical context (just like radical atheists do by the way), don't help either. Thank you very much for your time.
Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them).
Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy.
Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).
Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning!
Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures.
Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement.
It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them.

Amazingly concise. Well done.
Sasanian shahahanshas were absolutely greater than any you watch in Game of Thrones! They were real high educated, crafty warriors and had every elements of majesty blood and phylum of that time. It is said that Shahpur has the epithet "broad-shouldered" specifically "two shoulder” because of his height and his powerful body. The temporary Roman historians in Sassanid era described Persian men as tall,white skin, strong with braided dense beard and hair. They described Sasanian Shahanshahs as blue blooded, magnate, patrician, well born and real aristocrats. The story of Arab’s raid shows that the game of power and prejudice about being noble and high level results in destroying of a great empire and captivating a great nation.

Thanks man!
Great video! Keep up this overlooked and fascinating topics!!! Though, i must say, most historians believe that Hephtalites and Kidarites were actually Eastern Iranic speaking groups(tho im certain that Turkic elements were also present)
1:30 slight correction, the Parthians were hardly Greco Persian. It was slight posturing for trade purposes. They were thoroughly Iranian in custom and NOT seen as foreigners by their contemporaries or successors
They were not Persians they were merely Iranians, a lot of people were Iranians but because they weren't persians they were technically foreigners to the throne that belonged to the persians. And that's what he means, as back then there was very little notion of all Indo-Iranians being called Iranians. Medians, Scythians, , kurds, balochi, pashtun are all Iranian too yet they aren't Persian
@@arifahmedkhan9999 This may be partially true but it’s important to remember there was a distinction made for “Aryans” since the time of Achaemenids. Darius says he’s a Persian yes, he also notes he’s an Aryan. Herodotus (he has issues don’t get me wrong) there wasn’t much difference between Medes, Persians, Parthians and otherwise. Saying the Parthians were foreign is like saying the Qing dynasty is foreign to China or even better the Seljuks are foreign to Iran. There needs to be a better way of articulating someone who is not a usual member of ruling class but not entirely alien to the culture or country.
Love your stuff man
Keep up the good work
Thanks for the content great stuff
Its really hard to make a 20 min long video, and make it entertaining through out the entire video. But somehow you have done it well done amazing job (:
This is a great video thx I wish there would be more about Iran and especially about sasanian Iran history content (in german) to watch
Thanks for making it.
These are the advanced animations i subscribed for
Epimetheus uploads a video, me happy. The video is 20 minutes long, me praise the lord
:D
Yes Persian lord of stealing others histories
SASSANIAN and Medyes are not persian
I literally watched it in one breath!
AMAZING video!
Small note; you should have included a little bit more the last 30 years of the Sasanian house and the campains (and debacle) of the last ill-fated Sasanian king, Yezdigird the 3rd.
Also, it is said in History books that the move of the Capital city from Istaxr to Qtesiphon by Šahpur was a “daring move to keep the Roman Empire in check”.
A VERY daring move indeed, how many similar examples exist in History??
In general; congrats, an AMAZING video on one of the most amazing Empires of History, or how “Iran was reborn from the Ashes of the destroyed Achamenid Iran after Alexander of Macedon.
This will probably the first channel on CZcams i’ll patreon, great job!
Funny to note; little is mentioned in History that the Empire, during whichever dynasty, always called itself “Iran”.
Ironic thing is that the Romans too, under Constantine the Great, moved their capital from Rome to Constantinople, closer to the Persian border, thus keeping the Sassanids in check.
Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. And terrorists (puppets of the Antichrist) who misinterpret verses, out of ignorance and political motivations, and take them out of historical context (just like radical atheists do by the way), don't help either. Thank you very much for your time.
Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them).
Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy.
Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).
Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning!
Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures.
Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement.
It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them.
(19-22 / Translated by Muhammad Asad)..

Another excellent video!
Nice video as always
The best Persian empire since the achaemenids
Yup
@outlawfly The most important one was also the Afsharid Empire(Nader Shah).
No love for the Parthians? ;c
@@Userius1 the parthians were good too
Blitzkrieg one of the best Iranic empire
I think 18:30 and on is the most interesting takeaway from this. The future could have been entirely different had Phokas not rebelled and killed Emperor Maurice - who himself would have made an incredibly interesting alternate future for the empire. A Persian and Roman/Greek alliance would have been glorious.
Imagine if that were the case. Iran would likely never have been conquered by Islamic armies. It would have changed so much of the Middle East.
I have always seen this as one of the greatest far reaching decisions ever. Maurikios ordering his soldiers to march along the Danuvian Limes without proper payment. If he had taken a more reasonable decision, and abandoned unneeded lands like Roman Spain to the allied Visigoths, Phokas would not have gained power and Carthage and Spain would have had enough manpower and security to hold off the Muslim Invasions.
You can thank Graeco-Roman arrogance for that. Khosrow I signed a peace deal with Justinian I that Justinian II broke. Asswipe.
This is awesome! Thank you so much!
Thanks! Glad you liked it
This was great, more longer videos in the future please!
Glad you enjoyed the longer video Oscar!
Thanks for the video I wanted to learn more about the Sassanian Persian Empire.
