  • At the end of the 11th century, West Roman Christianity was spreading out in all directions. The First Crusade set out to recapture the Holy Land from Islamic rule. The Seljuk takeover of the region threatened the local Christian populations, pilgrimages from the West, and the Byzantine Empire itself. It was not a battle of cultures, not a struggle against Islam, but a chaotic confrontation of warlords and princes.

      Then it is most likely that the one piece of music was originally written by a very long dead European. Mozart, Tchaikovsky, Brahms, or whoever. No copyrights to music until fairly recently. If that music was an original work for the movie, it would be copyrighted. Everybody who used it commercially would need permission and would usually have to pay royalties. Including CZcams channels.

      German documentaries love to do that and I would guess this is originally a German production seeing that everyone interviewed is speaking German. It seems to be an older production though considering the format and overall looks. They are not necessarily without copyright either. There is a bunch of ZDF History documentations using the Game of Thrones theme song, it used to drive me insane. I guess the TV corporations just pay the royalties.

    Sweetwater denotes fresh (non-brackish) water. Brack water was salt water and not good for setting up a village near. Has important context as well regarding malaria. After major tsunami floods one might assume that many streams with sweetwater could become tainted with a degree of brackish status. The Bernese and the Sino-Chinese peoples made great early notes on such. Neither say “L” quite like the English so I suspect many German and Italian lowland marshes deemed “black water” were due to being “brackwater” sources. Just a contextual thought to add to oh so many names occurring in our histories (post-orientalizia of Mediterranean/Mesopotamian/European/the isles etc..)
    My favorite is “Roman”.
    My rabbit hole lead me to “Óman” using the context through linguistic hunt.
    The pacific-Asian nations and Chinese use characters like the Egyptians used them. Words tell sequences over transliterated words. So you can copy paste a chinese/Japanese etc. word and note the meaning of each character and subtract and add back in such a way as to see the sequence of a race or a people group. I’ll leave it at that for y’all to play with but it has been a 100% accurate way thus far for me to understand better the bottleneck of our history. Worth playing with.

    • @SBragg88
      @SBragg88 Před rokem

      "Brack water was salt water and not good for setting up a village near." Humans require sodium for our nervous system to work; hence why, the further back we look at sapien's history, we/they all tended to live near the sea and/or rivers that carried salt. Without salt humans enter hyponatremia, brain swells and you die.
      The bit on words is interesting. Does it tally with the use of music score? I understood that punctuation originated from music, using beats, and skips etc. which confuses some bits about; essentially hieroglyphics and the use of symbols. Other examples are that of the ancient Nordic cultures using runes no?

    All of the present conflicts have their beginnings in the past, tis it not true!
    Jesus was a true man of peace in our world, this is the truth but, he did also preach the rapture, the day of his lord's coming into our worlds future!
    The bible proclaims that the Apocalypse( Greek word for the uncovering) must happen! So while it does so preach peace it's teachings do not stand behind them whole-heartedly!
    One cannot preach peace and then promote war as inevitable, it's hypocritical to do so! Is this not true!

    I find quite a few critical issues with this presentation, not least of which is a covert defense of islam (I didn't misspell, but simply refuse to captalize?). On at least two occasions, the statement is made that "islam" means "peace", which it does not. islam means "submission", which is certainly not applicable as "peace"? The commentators also repeat the falsehood that the Ark Of The Covenant makes an army invincible, something which a cursory reading of 1 Samuel 4:3-11 will totally disprove.

      Thank you for pointing this out. The documentary attempts to make Christianity and Islam seem basically the same. It takes a lot of reading to go through the bible, but only a short time to read the Quran. They're very different points of view. Islam makes references to Judaism, Christianity and reflects passages that can be found in the bible as if some of it was copied. The bible has stories with roots in earlier Mesopotamian writings and oral traditions. Leaders in both refuse to acknowledge earlier sources for so-called _inspiration._

    • @chadettwein7667

      It definitely doesn't mean peace and islam has been attempting to conquer the world since its inception. The fact that they claim that the middle east - particularly Israel - belongs to them and Israel has no right to exist is laughable. Islam wasn't created until 600years after Christ and hundreds more years after Judaism. The only reason we had to have the crusades is because these idiots muslims attacked Jerusalem. It isn't theirs. They stole it and we kicked their ass and took it back.

  • @gaslitworldf.melissab2897

    Whoever researched this video *failed to look at scriptural rationale* behind some of the wars. The writer failed to consider the _heavy criticism of Christians and Jews- a refrain throughout the Q. It resembles the tone of biblical passages which condemn Canaanites for any number of sins, thus giving Jews a rationale for not only settling the land, but clearing it (an attempt at genocide, which thankfully failed b/c it was half-hearted - well, according to the only account of it - which is found the bible). Reading the Q thoroughly reveals that after having read it wholly, a faithful reader would feel compelled to eliminate all of those who do no _submit_ to Islam, including doubters, which rank high as something akin to evildoers, rather than mere skeptics exercising caution.

      they did not introduce horse warfare to Europa, since the Huns, the Avars, etc were more than 500 years before them. And the superior military technology was mainly artillery that came originally from Persia (or ultimately from India). Most of the famous weapons blacksmiths were Gypsies, who casted the Ottoman canons and very often also manouvered them in battle. It took the Europeans about 100 years to copy that form of artillery and as soon as they managed to master that technology, the Ottoman power started to decline.
