- Incorporating myth, history and contemporary investigation, Bernstein tells the story of how human beings have become intoxicated, obsessed, enriched, impoverished, humbled and proud for the sake of gold. From the past to the future, Bernstein′s portrayal of gold is intimately linked to the character of humankind.

This documentary series is gold in itself.
Indeed ❤
Funny to see all the comments about greed etc yet our entire civilization is built around that very ideology. Everything we do every single day is based on greed and destruction. Recognize we are no different then any of the conquistadors just we dress differently.
Don't remember murdering or enslaving any native Americans lately.
I just agree with you they did it for greed we are doing it for survival otherwise we will be stepped on like a bug and we will go hungry
To want to survive is not greedy to want more than what you need is the problem
Humans are inherently greedy, always have been, always will be. Humans are horrible people!
I noticed this too, the world's biggest holders of gold did this, they brainwashed over the centuries,they own the books, news stations, media, they give gold a bad name to convince their pleebs to turn it in to them ,and find it evil and worthless, Take that same hater to a stream ,they play in a river and find their first $ 1000 nugget, watch their light switch then, unless their a simple minded fool
Besides an orange. Gold is the only thing called by it's color 🤔
What about Silver?
gold doesn't destroy empires. the love of gold does (greed)
Same thing
No it’s not. Guns don’t kill people. People pull the trigger. It’s all about the intention of the user. Same with Gold.
Lust not Love
An a Incan descendant i feel proud to be stacking #Gold & #Silver 👌🏽 taking back what was stolen
It's like solid sunshine you can hold in your hand
Very well put

The global quest for “Greed”.
My conquistador brethren
Greed would be the motivating factor for the quest not the end goal...smh. You sound dumb

How would you define greed?
Liers! Your lies about gold being the source of the miseries never end. It’s the other way round. Not having gold as the real money is the source of all the misery!
Yes. There is not enough gold to back the amount of money circulating the planet, which makes money worth nothing. But try telling that to the government, bunch of straight up thieves.
Farid Esma-ali ....yep, 💯 % true
And gold is getting to be more unattainable, soon only the rich will be the only ones to possess it. Laws could make it illegal to own again as well. The elites don't want us to have it, because it gives us freedom.
@@tavoiaiono7885 That is a total farce ridiculed with absurdity. There is plenty of Gold to back any and all currencies on the planet, all you have to do is revalue the price of Gold ratio to paper money, nothing more.
I can agree to that
Always enjoy watching these videos ad free ---

I am Polish girl which is not so popular to be obsessed by gold, but since i saw the color of 24k . . . . . . . something happened to my soul and brain .. . . .. . I love the beauty I love to wear it ......I love to buying it and look at it . .. . ... ... .... like to me its the best color in the planet even my bedroom is styled by pastels and gold accessories. My passion have started after islam conversion because before I was really stupid its not about following new faith that kinda gone besides few lessions from Islam.... but a gold lesson 101 according to Islam changed my life and perception about silver and gold and finances... Besides that . . . I think I am a lost soul of Kerala village because when I see indian jewerly I am about to faint, coz of its beautifull .... .and the gold souq in Dubai was the best thing I ever seen. . . . . .I just want to owe all what is there
Damn right! It's also magic.
Hah
Islamic polish? Oof 😰
Careful with that gold fever 🥵
You just got a basic lesson in 101 Islam and you decided to convert? Do you even know what they do with women? Specially Europeans, you have been tricked. You are born in Christianity, save yourself
Amazing GOLD timelines
Very good interesting documentary really enjoyed the watch wish there was more . 👍
Me too
Human beings that had no prior knowledge knew that gold was inherently valuable. Ormus or gold in its silica form aka mana meaning “what is it” is the true form of gold is why it’s so valuable
This I another amazing documentary I get to watch.
We all have a deep dreams of gold
They say the love of money is the root of all evil but we see that the words "love" and "money" were pretty much interchangeable in the old world smh
The pun in this doc is immaculate...
What a GEM!
I look at those children born to the miners in that little south-american gold mine where people desperately cling to survival while ruining their bodies with damaging labor and toxic chemicals and wonder how the parents of those children feel, bringing next generations to the world, condemning them to the same misery and hopelessness. This is nothing but selfish, thoughtless cruelty. If I was a child born there, I'd hate my parents for this.
They should ask the Spanish to return all the gold they stole from south-american ancestors. Plus the interest
@@Athanatoi All the land that was taken from the Native Americans should be given back as well? It was the age of conquest, it's all history now.

No. Only the gold.

Now, people are chasing digits in a computer system
The spoils of gold ...so also the spoils of war
Greed was a powerful driver in the ancient world and remains so today.
I think that Spain should be helping to develop sustainable agriculture in some of the areas they basically stole from
That would defeat the purpose of stealing it
Because their was GOLD!!!
Yes... I think in your country they should be helping to develop sustainable agriculture in some of the areas like your head to cultivate something more than stupidities. You can travel all south America and see what the Spanish did there (hospitals/universities/palaces/churches)... And compare it to other empires... You can see that most of citizens of america are pure mixture of 'something' because they were not exterminated as in other places north. Whatever the black legend written by the pirates, the truth is above the ignorants. Go and check which country made the first vaccination overseas and which country created human rights standards...
They forgot to put all the gold Spain got from Puerto Rico and DR...
"there's gold in them there hills"
Very entertaining.
Interesting information
I literally just finished watching part 1. LOL
CZcams need to do a sound check on the adds,so loud,great doco though very good
and how stunning is a gold souq in Dubai
May God protect our souls and make us content
lol wha wha what?
There is heavy doubt on Marco Polo's Journey. You can not describe his writings as historical evidence.
Marco Polo is a fictitious character in my opinion...
Very informative!
The ring.. OF POWER ...! It must be destroyed where it was made, in the fires of Mount Doom.
It never ceases to amaze me how the European nations invaded countries , stole the treasures and wealth of the people , and killed the leaders and many of the people. PURE GREED !!
@@gailhandschuh1138 And it will happen again, we're not so civilized yet.
Man's obsession with gold is not just about material value. At another time a gold ring is truly a ring of power, it serves as a link between a dreamer and the realms of inorganic beings. That was the time when power is real and the race for power to dominate is the concern of men.
I would rather have spices! Gold is to heavy compared to spices.
As far as Columbus and his relatives... i just wanna know ... is that gal single ? Wow Chris' niece is still fab at middle age... I wanna hug a colum
how kind
*Amazing!!!Glad to see informative video, Good work bros!!!*
The GB Pound was once 'worth' a pound (of gold) as was stated on the note, 'I promise to pay the bearer' This in itself is a blatant lie. This small detail was pointed out in an assembly at junior school at the age of nine or ten. I never forgot the deputy head message, he was angry about this and wanted us kids to know, a good man, but I wonder how many other kids remember? or care
Erm❓🤔😏😜
The GB Pound was valued in silver hence a Pound Sterling and a quid was worth one pound of sterling silver they then divided it into silver coins and copper coins, a shilling was worth one twentieth of of a pound and a shilling was divided by twelve copper coins aka as penny`s, hence 240 pence to the pound or 20 shillings.
Your Deputy Head was an eejit.
Did you really leave out the wealthiest man who ever lived, Mansa Musa and how his gold collapsed economies at the time
Columbus was a convert from a village in Purtugal called Cuba (al-cobba) in Arabic, Culumbus will have know other converts who know about Arabic Maps

Love watching documentaries like this.
The global quest of greed
Good documentary but Columbus primary goal was to find a sea route to India not Japan!
9:40. The effects of mass immigration. The cost of living goes up, while wages go down.
They don't immigrate without cause - it's a no other opportunity situation.
Place yourself in their shoes - apply Empathy.
We have a responsibility to the Collective as we do to ourselves.
Beth Bartlett we are only responsible for the collective if we are responsible for running their countries collectively. You either have independence or you don’t. Every wealthy country has an immigration policy. I have no issue with people migrating through the proper channels. If they don’t, then there will be a backlash (right wing populism) and it will be the fault of the those that allowed to happen.
He is a racist- he probably doesn't understand enough about the world to have empathy. They are usually uneducated, lower wage earners, who choose to blame their lives on others.
lok777 none of my points are invalidated based on your assumptions.
@@bethbartlett5692 Well said, I worry about this country sometimes, but when I see people like you, I'm hoping we're in the majority.
Gold and Silver have their problems, but I'd say that it certainly has more benefit than a paper FIAT currency based system, that is prone to corruption and manipulation far easier than a Gold Standard. Such is the case for the USA, and the result of people being CONNED by the Central Banking Cartel based on PAPER FRACTIONAL RESERVE CURRENCY. Other Precious metals can always be added to the mix in addition to Gold in the National Vaults as a solid base.
The Ghana Empire and the Mali Empire, in Africa, were the richest empires in the world at their time. These were Africans not Arabs and they had a huge trading route. Everything is done to deny Africans their history it's so ridiculous!!!
Can you tell me more about african history, as it should be I mean...I also like history about the kushites and ethiopia actually
What do you mean "at this time". This documentary covers the long history of gold in Europe, the Middle East and new world. If you want to make a documentary about that part of the world go ahead. Is someone stopping you? I mean apart from the time you need to cry and play victim which seems to take up most of your time.
@@AnyoneCanSee I'm just pointing out a fact. You seem to have a problem with that which I find weird. Pointing out facts is playing victim? Lol wow.
@@blkhistorydecoded Claiming "Everything is done to deny Africans their history" isn't fact just because you said it.
Make a film about it. Write about it. Nobody's stopping you.
I'd like to hear it. And I'm an 'orrible white middle aged man.....apparently.
Hey Timeline! You still don't know which land has a large amount of gold since then?
The way Bernstein pronounces "Gold".... lol
Already, my life!
He’s so posh!
Jeeeezzzasss
A quest spurred on by greed
No! Peru was not part of Nueva España (New Spain) it was part of the Virreinato del Perú (Viceroyalty of Peru)... so inaccurate!
The spois of gold
No mention on king Mansa Musa of Mali....
A King ! ? ! He lived in a mud hut !
Far too many ads and the fact it closes iPad down, not worth it, Give up with Timeline docs!
Speech too soft while music too loud.
So that is where the NBA basketball team the Clippers got their name. 💵
Definitely not the boat..
60 kg of mercury creates 4 g gold ? wow
Ух,ты!
gold for salt?
This is why you Educate your Children and not just hand things down to them because they'll give it away for something less valuable smh!!!! No Where why Africa is Suffering so much they're giving away the very Thing that means to provide and protect Them smh!!!
GOLD has NOT built or destroyed empires. MAN has. Let’s not be LAZY thinkers. Let’s not remove PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY.
3:45.... 100 kenyan note by the second president of the republic of kenya....what is it doing there
Amazing, wow. They are really smart. Didn't Africans make their own salt really close to the sub Sahara desert?

Christopher Columbus was trying to find India but found north America. Where he landed is still know as Indiana and the natives are still known as Red Indians.
Have to mention this: there is absolutely ZERO evidence Christopher Columbus was from Genoa. All available evidence points toward him being Portuguese - e.g. him refusing to tell his Children where he was from, and the names of a lot (if not all) the islands he named in the Caribbean are Portuguese names (where it is believed his hometown is Cuba, Portugal - where there is still a statue honouring him as being from there originally!)
Also, he was most likely a spy for the Portuguese Empire against the Spanish Empire ("Castile") - as he seems to have helped the Portuguese get the original dividing line, ~100 leagues West of the Cape Verde Islands, of the Treaty of Tordesillas (initially in 1494 by Pope Alexander VI) moved further West (by Pope Julius in 1506) to ~370 leagues West of the Cape Verde Islands (to ~46°30′ W), helping the Portuguese Empire secure Brazil (apparently it was already known that gold was there), as the Portuguese would have dominion over everything East, and the Spanish Empire would have dominion over everything West, of said line, that was not already occupied by Christians.

So this is a documentary of the greatest robbery on earth... They even decorated their churches with stolen gold.😐
Timeline how do you tell a 2 part story about the Power of Gold & not mention Mansa Musa? Very bad taste I must say…

You couldn’t be more wrong about the importance of gold to the ancient and modern empires of west Africa which were built solely on trade of gold. Give Africa its due credit and visit the land to learn of our history instead of publishing conjectures in your ill informed documentary. Learn about the Old Ghana, Mali and Songhai empires. Learn about the Ashanti empire. All built on the exploits of gold. Gold as an entity is the most important element known to west Africans other than Spirituality.
