Since you said that you ancestors spoke an italian language, you has ancestry on the barbarians you hate so much, not an ethnic slovenian, btw, get a DNA test.

    Watching this videos ppl around the world can easily understand some reasons why there is so big difference btw italians of the north, middle and south. ...and even btw the east and the west of Italy.
    So is it quite hard to say how the Italians are. (For economical and historic cause, the majority part of the Italians that live around the world come from the south of Italy).
    One of the reasons that Italy remained divided for a long time is the immense wealth accumulated from different cities, such as Venice, Milan, Pisa, Genoa, Florence, Livorno, Siena (first bank in the world f.e.)... to name a few. Each of these cities had a wealth comparable to entire nations in Midieval Europe. Florence alone could match the wealth of the whole England in high middle ages. And when you are rich you can have a good army with the most advanced technologies (in Milan were produced the best armors of Europe f.e.), you don't want that someone else tell you what to do or not to do.
    Later... When the wealth and the power of the Italian cities fell, it was possible to unify Italy. Although the pope and the church have done everything, to the last, to prevent it.
    Today, the differences bring to Italy some nice things such as the big variety of food, cultures and ideas. But some not so nice...
    Anyway, Italy is a very various country full history. Where you can enjoy also a nice ladscape with high mountains, hills, plains, lakes, sea, any kind of shore, islands (big and small), and all these very close and... in a wonderful weather! ^^

    Until Napoleon came along, Venice did pretty well and managed to stay independent and out of the way. Even had the Adriatic side of Greece for awhile. Genoa was a similar story until Malta and Spain needed good Catholics just as Protestantism was in its infancy to fight off the Turks. Then they got screwed. The rest of Italy was as it was in Shakespeare's plays, independent city-states trading and fighting depending on the mood.

      @GiMel6666 Turkmenistan is a country, Turkmen is someone from Turkmenistan. Turk is a general term. People from Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan, Azerbaijan, Turkey are Turks. There is a distinction however. If you say Turkish you only mean someone from Turkey, if you say Turkic you mean all the turkic people. All Turkish are Turkic but not all Turkic are Turkish. For example somenone from Kazakhstan would be Turkic but not Turkish he/she would be Kazakh. It is like German and Germanic. Someone from Sweeden is not a German but he/she is Germanic. And finally there are Turkmens in syria and iraq. They are not from Turkmenistan they just use the name Turkmen.
      Just for fun i will write all Turkic people groups name:
      Altai, Azerbaijan, Balkars, Bashkirs, Chuvashes, Crimean Karaites, Crimean Tatars, Dolgans, Gagauz, Karachays, Karakalpaks, Kazakhs, Khakas, Krymchaks, Kumyks, Kyrgyz, Nogais, Qashqai, Tatars, Turkish, Turkmen, Tuvan, Uyghur, Uzbeks,Volga Bulgars Yakuts.

When they came into the peninsula they numbered 100,000-150,000 while the native population was around 4,000,000-6,000,000. There is a reason why we have the second closest language to Latin under sardinian.
      Edit: Also, what makes the Italians less latin? We speak the second closest language to it (first closest in terms of languages that are widely spoken), our architecture is similar (that is inevitable to change due to technology), the gene pool was not shifted after the germanic invasions due to the native population vastly outnumbering the invaders, so I honestly dont get why people say that we aren't Latin. It's like saying the greeks aren't as hellenic as the ancient greeks just because their culture evolved.

      Έλληνας Εθνικιστής Byzantium was a roman city of the Roman Empire. In the first centuries after the fall of the western empire the eastern empire had managed to keep it's roman culture and use of latin. Only later did it slowly convert to a greek culture and started the use of greek within the empire. So while its correct that greek culture and language had a enormous affect on the society of the enpire, (especially in its later years), it was still an empire with roman origins.

      3) By the end of 1848, those rebellions had been pushed back to individual cities, and they didn't show up properly on the map. Every slide on here is as of 31st December.

    It looks like even though the Western Roman Empire officially fell in 476, one could say that the empire remained in some vestigial form in the west until 1071. After all, the Roman culture continued in the West and Odoacer saw himself as subservient to the Eastern Roman emperor, Ostrogoths saw themselves as Romans (Odoacer was a Roman general), and the Byzantines (Eastern Rome) controlled some part of the peninsula until 1071.

      Calling yourself a Roman doesn't make you Roman. That's valid for Ostrogoths and Odoacer of course (they could hardly know how to write), but also for Byzantines who were deeply Greek cultured.

    It's absurd how your channel don' t have at least 1 million of subs 😡, instead some other shitty channel have 47543940 subs. Your videos are so satisfying to watch and also addictive and this channel are so usefull, like many others that talk about arguments like this. I hope you become more famous on CZcams, for the contents you bring on it and for the hard work you do so the people can enjoy of them 🤗😇💪.
    P.S. I'm from Italy, so i don't hesitate a second to open the video, i like it and I'm so happy you did it. Peace ✌

    I find it weird that modern Italy or maybe 1935 Italy was this similar to 750's Lombard-Byzantime-Venetian Italy. But it's also really cool.

      Italian people never went anywhere. They just politically reunited under the irredentist cause. They've been one one people since Rome. Germans followed suit as well afterwards and serbs tried to.

    It's interesting how Naples lasted for so many years. It was so small at the beginning and then it became half of Italy

      Helena Haper, actually your wrong the Byzantines tried to reconquer sicily 4 times and the fourth time in the 1030s they were extremely close to success, imperial politics is why the invasion was a failure, and the normans are why another invasion was not launched.

    Really love the Venetian expansion. It's like colonization but earlier. ^w^
