Rome's Journey to Superpower Status: The Samnite Wars
The Samnite Wars mark a massive turning point in Rome's history. At the onset of war between the Romans and the Samnites, Rome was at best a regional power. They had secured their hold over central Italy but were still boxed in with the Etruscans to their north and the Samnites to their south.
Yet these wars would completely change the political landscape of Italy for the rest of history. Rome would truly begin to dominate the peninsula and eventually the whole of the Mediterranean. So how did they do that? How did Rome manage to overcome the Samnites? And why is this war the turning point of Rome's early history? Let's talk about it.

Rome Defeats Their Ancient Enemy: The Siege of Veii

By 396 BCE, Veii had long been a thorn in Rome’s side. No other city, Etruscan or otherwise, had been to war with Rome as often as Veii. Every Roman king, and most of the subsequent Roman Consuls had at one point or another come into conflict with the city or its allies. In fact, we are fairly certain that Veii was the first city and people outside of Latium to fight Rome. My point here is that...

What are miles? Fun fact Americans only make up 4.23% of the total world population.
1.609 kilometers = 1 mile. Don't let your hatred for Americans stop you from learning something new.
@@buckodonnghaile4309 Thanks for telling me what I know. And you just googled. Pointing out that Americans are a tiny minority is not "hating Americans". But your backwards cubit based measurement systems is holding everyone else back. Not just Americans. The Imperial measurement system may be contributing to your fear of maths, not just holding you back a year in school.
NOBODY thinks the Ottomans are the descendants of the Roman Empire. That can safely be trashed.
I’d contend you’re the only one who thinks that, people who are in Ukraine occupied by Russia do not think they are Russian, they think themselves Ukrainian, same can be said about the Romans
Was Hannibal black or white skinned? Someone tell me
I feel that the length & content of the video could be a lot shorter/simplified if you post the information you find is most accurate instead of referencing multiple sources & comparing which one is most likely to be the real events. That should be up to the individual to figure out if they were more interested. I find myself getting lost many times from the departure of the subject so it seems better to just skip these recaps.
As an addition to TheMrPetechannel comment on why so few views. Your channel has come up fairly frequently on my feed since I watch a lot of ancient history material. However, simply because of the name of the channel I have passed it over as quite possibly an AI channel putting a computer voice to reading some public source document. However, the topic of Roman exploration of the Sahara is of interest to me so I decided to see. I'm very pleased I did. You have excellent content and relevant imagery and lots of information as well as enough information so I can follow up with more research if I want to. Thank You!!!!!!!! Excellent work, keep it up. Now the name of the channel is irrelevant to me but could still be a factor in limiting exposure.
Let's see if Mr. Duncan missed something to teach me :-D
You gotta pronounce 'Agricola' correctly. For the love of God it's, "Agrih-Koh-La"
Roman's were African kangs

Pretty good for a idiot
Hopefully you go through Roman History up to Justinian The Great
Went to sleep. In my dream in Ancient Rome I pulled out my phone bc it wouldn’t stop talking and then things took a turn south.
An extremely Western view of the source material. I am predisposed to lean west/US, and I'm not a smart historian, but this is clearly a reciting of facts from a 200 year old British worldview and the subsequent publications that agree with it. The video lacks nuance and depth and this issue is compounded by a matter of fact delivery. It suggests that this *is* the way things were, as if our current understanding is concrete because a book said so. Don't mean to blow you up like this, you clearly love Rome and did a great job compiling the info. You know your stuff and clearly many many people have commended you for this. I would suggest embracing bias in the historical sources, supporting information with cultural factors that help build our understanding the facts, and nailing details like pronunciation. Linguistics and word choice have a big impact on what people take away from a subject as information dense as this video.
Wow an iceberg video about everything Roman doesn’t go over every nuance? I cannot believe this, make this video seven hours longer please I need my nuance!!
2:20:54
Who the other person who watched to the end with me ??? Great vid btw 👍
Romans had a tough time with them because the territory and the terrain was very very wild and full of rocky cliffs and mountains. I've seen those places, they are full of good spots to hide and take out enemies. Till this day, it's a pretty rough place to live, very rural. But that's a blessing 🙏
Great video! My frandparents are from the land of the Samnites, precisely right near the Forche Caudine. Their legend is still strong and the area is called Valle del Sannio. We have great wine and food there 😅 (of course).
Instantly subscribed when I saw your sources section in the description!🔥🥵💕

I think they got to Briton and Ireland realized how many warriors they had. Propagated a false victory out of a skirmish and left
as a romanian is simply impossible to accept the ottomans as the succesaors of Rome. My entire country was concieved whith the common ties to the romans, while people seacked independence from the ottomans. I have nothing against modern turks, its juat that as someone from the balkans i cant condone the ottoman empire, which i see as an invader, not diferent than the austrian and russian empires who also interviened in my lands history. I wouldnt say the state of romania is a roman empire, but i can say that we have more motives to call ourselves romans or descentants of romans than the germans or turks or russians, which in my perspective were large empires who just wanted to pose as romans

"Idiot Talks History" *is extremely not an Idiot*
Why do people care so much about using BCE/CE? It's a perfectly reasonable system. I get wanting to use BC/AD because it's what you're used to, but it's not like the other system is worse.
If you don't care about wanting to use a system just stick to the one we have used for all of human history up until now ac and bc
It’s easier for people to understand, not saying it’s superior to ad/bc, but off hand, anno Domini is harder to remember than common era/before common era
So censorship is your answer. Leave the narrative to the experts? Sounds like an inner conceit and a totalitarian quest . I’ll leave the Flat Earthers alone and keep my eye on your brand of ‘intellectualism. It’s gotten nations destroyed.
I love how Livy invented alternative history by saying that Rome would definitely defeat Alexander the Great of Macedon while it was struggling against Italians. Love this channel too, this area of history is underrated especially the Etruscans
The classic mixmatched use of "BCE and AD", rather than BCE/CE or BC/AD
amazing
wowww
good job!
