Surprised this doesn't have more views, great stuff
Somehow I missed this gem despite having watched all the former and prior videos. Great breakup of the reforms !
Great video 👌
No mention of colonatus = serfdom? No mention of forced inheritance of profession? You basically ignored what matters the most in these Medievalization reforms.
Also I think he kind of touched on the problem of coin debasement but didn’t really explain how big the problem and solution was and the “in kind” taxation system that was created out of necessity.
@@brianmumford7977 - True.
AFAIK, the greatest problem that hard coin caused was to the market economy both inside the Empire and across its borders with the Germans and other barbarians. Basically a super-austericided economy had no means of exchange anymore.
Underrated channel
I have been watching all your videos lately and they truly are amazing my friend 👍 I hope you continue to make great content.
Thanks ! I'm definitely not planning to stop making these videos
Who would have thought that increasing money supply (inflation) and price control would ruin the economy
Glad that I found your channel
That’s what I call quality content 👏🏻
Thank you a lot
Amazing stuff wish this helped the empire last longer!
I like to believe much of those reforms were clearly needed
@@ancientsight america reminds me of the later Roman Empire
The empire is called nato now...
It did help it last longer though. Rome came very close to collapsing in the third century but these reforms helped it to survive until the 5th century.
@@TAKE_BACK_BRITAIN president manchin and Vice President sinema won’t do any reforms
👍👍👍
Interesting thank you
Love Diocletian... also the music is amazing. where is it from?
I don't have access to my project's files currently so I cannot give you the exact tracks, but if you are talking about the first one, it must be Celtic Music - Wolf Blood by Adrian von Ziegler
@@ancientsight that is it. Thank you!
Diocletian was a giga Chad
Is the music by Adrian von Ziegler? I feel like i know the music and it sounds like his
Yes indeed, looks like I forgot to add the credits on this one, I fixed it. It is Walking With The Ancestors and Illyricum by Adrian von Ziegler
Big oof
Diocletian's mistake was to mettle in the market determining fixed prices and wages. Sounds very familiar today with big government meddling with free-markets that often has unintended consequences, or gives bureaucrats corruption opportunity to choose winner and losers with the right price.
