      He was killed by his officers but okay. A lowly clerk who had committed an act of corruption which Aurelian was know to be merciless in his scouring of forged documents in Aurelians name accusing his officers of treason and ordering their deaths. They killed him, learned the truth and in sorrow and rage tied the fucker up in the woods and let the animals devour him.

It’s SO HARD to wrap your head around how many problems the romans faced at once, and even HARDER to wrap your head around how rome managed to survive for another 1200 FUCKING YEARS! Unbelievable…

      @leonardodavid2842 Před 3 lety +69

      1. Italics. Not Italians. The concept of Italian was actually created by Romans much later.
      2. Romans, as Latins, were also Italics. Furthermore, Etruscans and Southern Italy’s Hellens were not Italics themselves.
      3. Etruscans are actually thought to have been Bronze age Anatolians. Possibly even Trojans. There is no actual evidence for Romans being Trojan (however since there is a lot of evidence that Etruscans may have been from eastern Anatolia and migrated around 1200 BC, a.k.a from the region to Troy not much after it’s distruction. And we know for certain many Roman elites, including Romulus were part Etruscans, that may aswell be the origin of Roman legends).
      So it would be more accurate to say:
      Some Italics, people who we actually have evidence (and most historians agree) were Trojans, and Hellens - “let’s gang up on the kid going to war and defeating everybody, whom used to be part of some of our leagues or federations before they made their own.
      Romans - “what you fail to understand is that I am going to be defeated several times, however since the Etruscans used to be dominant power due to their large population and food production, and I am in the perfect position to take over their declining federation, I am going to be taking their place as the dominant power now. This time using a slightly more centralized system”.

      It derives from the name of an Illyrian tribe, the Albanoi, which was located around the city of Albanopolis (now Zgërdhesh located in the region of Krujë).
      Moreover, even today, a region of Albania, from the north of Tirana (between the rivers Mat and Erzen), is called Albëni (gheg dialect) or Arbëri (tosk dialect).
      But this name Albanoi with its various variants (Arbanites, Arvanites, Arvanitis, Arvanos, Arban, Arbani, Arbanon, Arnavuts, Arnauts, Arbëri, Arbër, Arbëni, Arbën, Albën, Albanois, or Albanians) really began to spread when the Albanian territories became a field of hostility and a buffer zone between Byzantines and the new Slavic invaders (Serbs, Croats etc.. ...) towards the beginning of the seventh century AD.
      Several writers of the eleventh century, including Michel Attaliate and Jean Skyltzes, have recounted this kind of confrontation and widely spoken of these Albanian mountain tribes.
      It is the Angevin chancelleries (Charles I of Anjou, brother of St Louis, proclaimed himself king of Albania in 1272) which, in the 13th century, conveyed the name of Albanian or Albanians, which spread rapidly, like wildfire, throughout Europe.
      It should be noted that the Albanians never use this name (Albanian) to designate their own ethnic group: they call themselves Shqiptar, that is to say son or child of the eagle.

      He didn't stop there, I mean many border provinces and armies did became rogue, and chaos emerges as Valerian was captured by the Sassanids. But despite all the anarchy, Gallienus was still able to protect the central provinces bordering the Danube, he crushed many barbarian invasions (most importantly the ones in Italy), he suppressed a lot of usurpers and gets a way to defend the East by entrusting Odaenathus of Palmyra to govern the Eastern provinces. Things were evening out eventually, he was able to recapture Spain from the Gallic Empire and was at the verge of crushing another rebellion under Aureolus. If he just hadn't got assassinated, I bet he can be as great as an emperor as Aurelian, I mean, the East is safe, he could repel the invasions by the Goths just like any other barbarian invasion, once that is done, the only border of the empire is safe and he could focus on reunifying the Western empire, there's a good chance he'll succeed.

      I don't understand why the author of the vid posted 753 BC as the beggining of the empire, since that was only the FOUNDATION date of the CITY of ROME as a small city state in central Italy...it was still FAR from being an EMPIRE, which it only turned into by 27 BC through Augustus' ascension.
      Even the Byzantines in 1453 AD had at least some territories in Greece, Crimea and Anatolia, filling the minimum requirements to being considered a small Empire. Now, some people may argue the Roman mid and late republic could already be considered an empire in all but name by the moment they unified Italy and conquered Carthage.... which is a fair point. As an analogy, Colonial France was an empire even after Napoleon lll was ousted and the Second Republic rose up.
      Whatever the starting point you pick, the Roman Empire would have lasted from 1480 to 1679 contiguous years. A whoping record for any empire existing from late antiquity to the Modern Age.
      To put that in perspective, only the Persians, Indians and Chinese beat that... and they had huge demographic, geographic, and resource advantages Rome lacked in the form of:
      1- Their huge rivers (Euphrates, Yangtze, Ganges, etc) surrounding/surrounded by huge plains of land that allowed them to produce amounts of crops Rome could only dream with. The latter had to import grain from Egypt and North Africa to stay afloat, European Rivers simply could not irrigate enough crops.
      2- Natural features that isolated them from massive invasions of sedentary barbarians who were near impossible to assimilate (Himalayas, Gobi and Afgnan deserts) in the case of India and China. Persia had the steppes and deserts, which only allowed the pass of horse nomads that, historically, were easy to culturally assimilate. The germans, slavs and arabs that invaded Rome were not interested in assimilating.
      3-And most importantly, the aforementioned advantages allowed their majority, population cores were always homogenous Han, Indians or Persians. This haooened mainly because of the huge plains surrounding their main rivers, were thweir population cores developped.
      On the other hand, Roman Italians and Greeks could never hope to become majority in their empires. European geography was too rugged and fractured.

    It's interesting how fast Rome consolidated Italy with the Third Samnite War then the Pyrrhic War and then immediately dove into the First Punic War. Regardless of how they probably framed their enemies as the aggressors they must have felt like they had some duty, mandate, whatever higher purpose to expand or else they surely couldn't have kept up the morale to support decade after decade of war.

      "Moscow, Third Rome" is a theological and a political concept which was formulated in the 15th-16th centuries in the Tsardom of Rus.
      In this concept, three interrelated and interpenetrating fields of ideas can be found:
      a) Theology: that is linked with justification of necessity and inevitability of the unity of the Eastern Orthodox Church
      b) Social policy: derived out of the feeling of unity in East Slavic territories being historically tied through Christian Eastern Orthodox faith and Slavic culture;
