Gunpowder in Europe: increases. Spanish glory: about to begin. The Mongol Empire drowned in the Spanish lake, the Pacific Ocean. Thanks, Mongols! Or Turks! Whoever brought it to us!
@tofrie the plague formed in china in 1333 and the rise of the Mongol empire was in the mid 1200's and thats where the population was going down but it could be a error with the video
The way we typically learn history is in snippets of important events: The Ancient Greeks, The Holy Roman Empire, the Punic Wars, 1st and 2nd World War, the founding of the America's, etc. The main issue I've had in fully understanding history is tying all these snippets together in reference to each other. Knowing that when event x was going on, event y was also happening on the other side of the world really allows you to have a deeper understanding of history. This video helped me bridge this gap and I will come back to it multiple times for historical reference when needed. Thanks so much for creating this.
@@prasadmankar7650 Are you implying that in other parts of the world they teach literally everything historically in a linear and all-encompassing fashion? Or are you just taking issue with the specific events I mentioned? I imagine if I were to go to a non-western country I'd still learn history the same way, but the specific events would change. Or are you just leaping at an opportunity to take a shot at the west because of personal biases?
the fact that we now can map and document all of history into one single 20 minute long video is insane. Entire history of our being in a singular video. Inaccuracies are always something unavoidable, but this is just amazing.
In this new version, the following has been added: -Africa, India and Southeast Asia are now shown correctly -Video begins at 200000 BCE -Every Year from 2334 BCE -Distinction between states and cultures -Other small improvements to accuracy and detail -Population Clock -Events Key
Ollie, seen so many mappers. So many corporations doing maps. Never found your level of accuracy. As a map nerd. My life would have been missing something if it weren't for you. Thanks.

This may forever be the most incredible TH-cam video I've ever watched. I always come back occasionally to see this. Not just for the information, but the pure effort this was built on. Awesome job.
By the way, regarding the Polish Empire and Lithuania, the video is completely wrong. Because in the video Lithuania is shown as an independent country from 1385 to 1569. But that is wrong, because with the treaty of Krewo of 1385, the Polish king became the ruler of Lithuania which then became part of the Polish Empire, which arose from the annexation of Lithuania to Poland. Because of the personal union of Poland with Lithuania in 1385, Poland became an empire and Lithuania, like other territories, was part of the Polish Empire. The treaty of Krewo for personal union of Poland with Lithuania in 1385 was the first step in Poland's takeover of Lithuania. This union was declared indissoluble. This personal union meant that the Polish king should also be the ruler of Lithuania. In fact, the union treaty also contained the provision of the attaching of Lithuanian and Ruthenian lands to the Polish Crown. However, the various other treaties which followed this treaty actually meant the takeover and Polonization of Lithuania too. A significant resolution was the adoption of Polish administrative divisions and offices like voivode and castellan by Lithuania. Even more important was that in total 47 selected Lithuanian nobles were adopted by Polish nobles heraldic families and granted Polish coats of arm. This symbolic gesture signified their desire to adopt Polish customs and integrate into Polish society. Because of this possibility of heraldic adoption, Poland had a much higher proportion of nobles than other European kingdoms. In Poland, the proportion of nobles in the total population was already 10-15% in the 16th century, in the rest of Europe it was 1%. Thus the Union of Krewo in 1385 signified the beginnings of the strengthened Polonization of Lithuania. Strengthened Polonization because the Polonization actually started before the Union of Krewo, because Lithuania was Christianized from Poland. Priests, especially from Poland, Christianized Lithuania and priests had great influence at that time, so there was already a Polish Influence in Lithuania before the Union of Krewo. So the Polonization of Lithuania started with the Christianization and was finally completed with the Union of Lublin in 1569. Polish dominance about the Lithuanians, so also about the Ruthenians illustrates also that the Polish king automatically became the grand duke of Lithuania. That was by far not the only additional title of the Polish kings. For example, the Polish King Sigismund III Vasa had in addition to the Polish royal title, Grand Duke of Lithuania and Grand Duke of Finland, Prince of Rus, Prussia, Mazovia, Volhynia, Podolia, Podlaskie, Severia, Czernihów, Samogitia, Livonia, also Hereditary King of Sweden. Rus stands for Russia because the Poles ruled large areas of Russia at the time, and even Moscow was briefly occupied by Polish troops. Samogitia stands for the Baltic States, which the Polish king largely ruled. Hereditary king of Sweden and Grand Duke of Finland because the Polish king was also the king of Sweden for a short time. But he lost the power in Sweden and Finland. This list of titles makes it clear that Grand Duke of Lithuania was just one of the many titles of the Polish king. But the most important title was always King of Poland. In the end, the title Grand Duke of Lithuania was just one of many Polish king's titles. The title was particularly important only at the beginning of the Polish rule over Lithuania, when the Lithuanian nobility was not yet Polonized. At that time the Poles still had to pretend the Lithuanian nobility that this was not a takeover. The treaty of Krewo for personal union of Poland with Lithuania in 1385 was the first step in Poland's takeover of Lithuania. This union was declared indissoluble. This personal union meant that the Polish king should also be the ruler of Lithuania. Thus Lithuania ceased to be an independent country. What is also negative is that the historically wrong term "Poland-Lithuania" is used, although at least Lithuania is shown as part of the Polish Empire, although the wrong term is used to name the state. Unfortunately, many people and historians use also the wrong term commonwealth in connection with Polish history. But the term Commonwealth is inappropriate because it gives the impression that the state was a common wealth for Poles and Lithuanians alike. So the common wealth served both nations equally. But in reality the Lithuanians had to submit to the Poles and were largely Polonized and thus assimilated. It was actually a Polish empire completely dominated by the Poles. Lithuania was completely dominated by the Polish Empire like also the Ruthenians who were the ancestors of the Belarusians and Ukrainians. Poles completely dominated them all. The Lithuanians were voluntarily polonized and the Ruthenians partly too. All relevant was Polish like also the Polish currency Polski Złoty. Złoty means golden in Polish. The capitals of the entire state were the Polish cities of Krakow and Warsaw. The ruling Poles have also determined what the state should be called Polisch Rzeczpospolita! The Polish name was then adopted by the Lithuanians into the Lithuanian languages as "Žečpospolita". By the way, Polish term for nobility ”szlachta” was also adopted into Lithuanian as ”šlėkta” like many other Polish words. The majority of the loanwords in Lithuanian were from Polish. Using the term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth is absolutely wrong. Because this Polish state was a Polish Empire which was completely dominated by the Poles and the use of Lithuania in the name of the state is nonsensical, as it suggests a kind of equality that did not exist! Besides that the term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth based on a mistranslation and is therefore wrong. This term is wrong because the term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth is a modern invention in connection with Poland. A nonsensical invention by historians that does not correspond to reality. Moreover, the term is being used incorrectly because the Polish term Rzeczpospolita has been mistranslated as Commonwealth. So the term Commonwealth is used because of an incorrect translation. For that reason alone, one should not use this term. But the term should also not be used because the use of Lithuania in the name suggests a kind of equality that did not exist! The term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was not used at all in earlier times. It would be appropriate to speak of Rzeczpospolita is the traditional and official name of the Polish Empire as a whole, including all duchies and and all ruled territories. The name of the state Rzeczpospolita is a combination of rzecz "thing, matter" and pospolita "common", a calque of the Latin res publica (res "thing" + publica "public, common"), so the republic, incorrectly translated as Commonwealth in English. By the way, in Poland, the word Rzeczpospolita is used exclusively in relation to the Republic of Poland, while other republic is referred to in Polish as "republika". Used in international treaties and diplomacy, the state has been called the most serene ( most high) Rzeczpospolita Poland (Polish: Najjaśniejsza Rzeczpospolita Polska, Latin: Serenissima Res Publica Poloniae or also Rzeczpospolita of the Polish Kingdom or Rzeczpospolita of Poland. Its residents simply referred it in the everyday language as Rzeczpospolita or Poland occasionally also the crown. But the state was never called Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Never!!! If one wants to use a more modern term one can use Polish Empire as also the term Swedish Empire is used. In any case, it would make sense to use the Polish proper name Rzeczpospolita as a designation for this state, which was actually still internationally common in the 19th century when talking about Poland before the partitions. The term Rzeczpospolita seems difficult to pronounce for non-Poles. But that is not the case at all. With a little practice, anyone can pronounce the term correctly, even you. A little help: Rz is pronounced like the "isi" in vision. So virzon sounds like vision. Cz sounds like the "ch" in church. So Czurcz sounds like church. But if one just use "sh" instead of "rz", that sounds close to Polish. "Ch" can be used instead of "cz". So Shechpospolita would be written in English, which could be pronounced without problems. So there is no reason not to use this correct term.
It has so many wrong things. It seems the video is sponsored by history robbers. Seriously though, the sequence of events and kingdoms put regarding the Horn of Africa is totally insane and not true.

15:27 The only moment in all human history that the global population decreased!!! decreased from 425 millions to 375 millions, then grow back again... The black death was absolutely deadly....
Only to Europeans lol. It came from Asia and went through the Middle East, but only caused devastation in Europe because of how filthy and crowded it was
@@milesdavis607 The Black Death was partly brought on by progress in transport and trade. Trade routes were used and expanded by the Mongols and ironically, these same routes were used by disease which decimated everyone on all sides of conflict. In a sense, human progress brought the Black Death. SARS, Bird Flu , Ebola and modern pandemics can also be spread by modern methods of transport and travel.
The Black Death literally wiped out half of Europe's population and caused tremendous fear! Starting from Sicily (sister island of Italy) rapidly spread across Europe. The plague doctor was also born and omg, there were so many symptoms and lots were absolutely disgusting. I hope nothing like that happens again.
Achaemenid, Maurya, Roman and Han were on different levels. The amount of area, economy, military and power they had during ancient times was stupendous.
Agree, especially the first Persian empire (Achaemenid) was the first ever superpower in the world. They controlled half of the world's population, No other empire was able to do that.

What kinda gets me is that, here in Europe, when we learn about history after the 1500s, we'll hear about the British/ French/ Spanish colonizers, WW1, WW2, the Germans (Nazis), the Japanese, BUT we'll almost never hear about the Ottoman colonizers (Turkish muslims who committed huge genocides), Russian-Soviet colonizers (they’re still in war today), and Arab muslim colonizers who continue their "holy wars" even to this day. We shouldn’t learn only HALF the history... Cause whoever is not held accountable for their past, they never learn, and they continue with their colonial wars as if nothing happened. And not only that, when you expose them, they try to play the victim.

This is beautiful. The effort put into this is truly fascinating. I would point a few errors though -- the Delhi Sultanate in its last stage was not Persianised, it was Iranic (Afghan), the Mughals were initially Turkic-speaking, but they were later Indianised (by blood, culture and language), the Senas were Dravidian (Kannada), the Hindu Shahis and Rajputana were Indic.
*"Think of the rivers of blood, spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and in triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction, of a dot."____Carl Sagan*
But surely, if those fractions of a dot are so small, then those rivers of blood must be even smaller still by contrast. Less than a drop. Less than a molecule. And by that logic, insignificant.
I do think of all those things, and then realize that it all had to be that way so that we could be here today as we are. It all happened according to plan.

Highlighting ‘VIctorian Era’ exposes your inner biases. None of the rest of the world called it that… or thought of it as such. The British Empire was short-lived and only briefly controlled large parts of the world. Several empires held more swathes of land for longer periods of time.
every time i would like to know about the map while exploring the history, i usually come here and check it out the detail territory. It helps a lot. thanks bro.
I've been drawing maps of historical borders, but in much less detail, and even then I spend hours on each map to get accuracy of borders. And that's just borders, no coloured in or named countries, nor do I have a population counter or events box like this. I cannot imagine the effort and research this would have taken. Any innacuracies in this video are minimal, I would expect there to be far more. I mean you don't have forever to perfect your research. Everyone, take to mind there's around 5000 slides in this with constantly changing borders. Incredible video, probably my favourite on TH-cam.
This person right here has flipped through every book, atlas, wiki page and dictionary to make 19 minutes and 7 seconds of video that compresses 202016 years of history into one map, so don't you go complaining to your momma about *DOING YOUR DAMN HOMEWORK, BILLY*
It is an amazing video but I did notice *one* error. He forgot to include the Kazakh Khanate which went from 1465 until annexation by Russia in 1848; though had fractured into a Confederate form following 1781. In the video, they're just listed as "Kazakhs" all the way until annexation by Russia. Not to be overly harsh on him as it is an easy thing to overlook but constructive criticism is a good thing.

I am in awe with this video and don’t understand how this was made. Introducing tons of data to a map software? still a daunting job… Really would like to know. Thank you so much for it, probably my favorite video in internet.
It's made by stitching together slides of images, each new slide changes borders, names, civilizations, etc. Throw in some editing effects like fading text on a separate layer, and there's the video. Judging by the sheer size and length of the video, as well as all the research that went into it, it must have taken a long time. Anyone can do it with a simple image editor, but it takes a lot of effort to see it through.
The moment I waited for and my tears came down is the emergence of Islam in Saudi Arabia, changing the world and ruling the Saudis from China to Spain. Islam spread thanks to the Saudis, then we returned and became the first oil exporter and managing the fate of the world 🇸🇦🕋🕋
This one video taught me more about history in 19 minutes (and the 2 hours afterward due to it peaking my interest in history) then school did in 12 years.
with all the small kingdoms/principality/duchy/sultanates and on popping up everywhere and disappearing a year later it would take ages to make a 100% accurate map.
Maturity is when you realise that this is the history that remains after thousands of invasions which destroyed many advanced civilisations leaving behind no clue for us to know their existence😢
After watching this, the reality of 4 THOUSAND years becomes insanely hard to grasp when each of us will ultimately only experience a fraction of that. To see this unfold makes it hard believe the number of lives that have come before us and the possible number of those to come after. I also suddenly feel less like this is my home, and more the home of those who came before us.
@@omjagdeesh8731 When it comes to technology and technology-related social change, yes. But the more fundamental aspects of culture, such as language, writing system, social beliefs, philosophy / religion, etc. still change on roughly the same timescale as they did in pre-industrial times (500 - 2000 years, depending on the aspect in question). Moreover, the current pace of change is due to the process of industrialization (of which scientific-technological modernization is a part). Once the entire world has completed the process of industrialization (today, some countries have only just begun industrializing), perhaps in 200 years, then it's very much possible that the pace of change will slow back down.
@@joecurran2811 What do you mean? In the context of my post, modern science and technology is part of the industrialization process, since it's a direct result of the Industrial Revolution. Therefore, even so-called "post-industrial" states are industrial.

Rome: Hey Persia, I’m actually very worried. Persia: Why? Because I keep kicking your ass? Rome: No, not that, I’m worried that a new religion will come out of melting-pot Arabia and will conquer both of us in the span of a generation. Persia: Well that’s a pretty specific and irrational fear. Rome: Yeah, you’re probably right.
Rome: I'm desperately holding on to Italy, a peninsula that's offering me no real gain, while trying to defend my homeland against you, because I'm really good at rationing. Persia: Same here. I'm fighting a pointless war with you where my supply's are over-extended, and my armies are dying by mass, all while Armenia is giving me shit and while the Turks to the north are invading because I keep intervening in their civil war that I have no real interest in. Along with having terrible rulers. Rome: Man, we are so prepared. Persia: I know, right?
Well, since Rome invented Christianity at the very least and the Syrians/Persians created proto-Islamic monotheisms prior to this, both are to blame for Islam and the world today, in a sense. Although one has to hand it to the Persians, they were 'great' and for a long time. The Roman Empire, on the other hand, killed itself pretty fast (though many argue the Roman Empire won and is 'alive' because the world is currently Romanised from the Near East all the way to North America). Well, that's what totalitarianism is good at.

This barely taught you any history. How can you see things connected to eachother? How do you see, from this reference map that things affect eachother? Which people lived and how they lived? How technology progresses? Books written? Culture? Wars? Also, I bet you can recall maybe one or 2 facts from this video.
this doesn't actually teach much history really. you'd have to list and explain all the deaths or births of important figures, battle outcomes etc. everywhere in the world at once, this just shows the cultural and territorial history
This video is definitely going to have over 1 million views. Proud to be the 109th one, heh :) Otherwise, amazing work! The best history video of this type that has ever been made
WTF It tooks about 6000 years for humans to reach 2 000 000 000 and then about only 80 years to be 5 500 000 000 more ?!!! Why does it really scare me ..
Pierre Martinez™ When more humans exist, more humans f*ck(sorry by using this term). That means humans grew in a geometric scale. But that isn't the only reason. Things like the food production methods and the developement of cures for some diseases contributed for a faster population growing last years(sorry for bad english).
(I'm french my english is not better haha) Yes and the life experency is increasing each year so people live longer whenever more babys born But there will a limit or something if the population effectif is still growing by square, earth's gonna explose
Researches based onthe birth rate, for example. The people is actually making less babies. The contraceptive methods bagan to be popular in the second part of the century XX, and many countries started to get his people more instructed after the lifestyle changed from the farms to the cities. In certain countries,(like mine, Brazil) the birth rate drastically decreased last years. From families with around 7,10,13 children, to the nowadays families with less than 3. That's even the cause of problems with retirement plans. The world population wil theoretically stop to growing when the birth's average be 2 or less childs per family.
The empire didn’t care about scotland because it was a poor region and and all the legions guarded the borders or made war on parthes. Aut Cæsar, aut nihil !
The biggest mistake the romans ever made, invading the british isles. They should have let it be and focused on their northern border with the germans and eastern borders with the nomads and persians.
@@DavidRSAT Nothing is automatically doomed for no reason. Rome went under because of its poor focus on what border to defend, bad laws (the 212ad law), christianity (turn the other cheek doctrine), "watering" down coins with rubbish metals etc. It could have survived to modern day.

Not a great job becuase regarding the Polish Empire and Lithuania, the video is completely wrong. Because in the video Lithuania is shown as an independent country from 1385 to 1569. But that is wrong, because with the treaty of Krewo of 1385, the Polish king became the ruler of Lithuania which then became part of the Polish Empire, which arose from the annexation of Lithuania to Poland. Because of the personal union of Poland with Lithuania in 1385, Poland became an empire and Lithuania, like other territories, was part of the Polish Empire. The treaty of Krewo for personal union of Poland with Lithuania in 1385 was the first step in Poland's takeover of Lithuania. This union was declared indissoluble. This personal union meant that the Polish king should also be the ruler of Lithuania. In fact, the union treaty also contained the provision of the attaching of Lithuanian and Ruthenian lands to the Polish Crown. However, the various other treaties which followed this treaty actually meant the takeover and Polonization of Lithuania too. A significant resolution was the adoption of Polish administrative divisions and offices like voivode and castellan by Lithuania. Even more important was that in total 47 selected Lithuanian nobles were adopted by Polish nobles heraldic families and granted Polish coats of arm. This symbolic gesture signified their desire to adopt Polish customs and integrate into Polish society. Because of this possibility of heraldic adoption, Poland had a much higher proportion of nobles than other European kingdoms. In Poland, the proportion of nobles in the total population was already 10-15% in the 16th century, in the rest of Europe it was 1%. Thus the Union of Krewo in 1385 signified the beginnings of the strengthened Polonization of Lithuania. Strengthened Polonization because the Polonization actually started before the Union of Krewo, because Lithuania was Christianized from Poland. Priests, especially from Poland, Christianized Lithuania and priests had great influence at that time, so there was already a Polish Influence in Lithuania before the Union of Krewo. So the Polonization of Lithuania started with the Christianization and was finally completed with the Union of Lublin in 1569. Polish dominance about the Lithuanians, so also about the Ruthenians illustrates also that the Polish king automatically became the grand duke of Lithuania. That was by far not the only additional title of the Polish kings. For example, the Polish King Sigismund III Vasa had in addition to the Polish royal title, Grand Duke of Lithuania and Grand Duke of Finland, Prince of Rus, Prussia, Mazovia, Volhynia, Podolia, Podlaskie, Severia, Czernihów, Samogitia, Livonia, also Hereditary King of Sweden. Rus stands for Russia because the Poles ruled large areas of Russia at the time, and even Moscow was briefly occupied by Polish troops. Samogitia stands for the Baltic States, which the Polish king largely ruled. Hereditary king of Sweden and Grand Duke of Finland because the Polish king was also the king of Sweden for a short time. But he lost the power in Sweden and Finland. This list of titles makes it clear that Grand Duke of Lithuania was just one of the many titles of the Polish king. But the most important title was always King of Poland. In the end, the title Grand Duke of Lithuania was just one of many Polish king's titles. The title was particularly important only at the beginning of the Polish rule over Lithuania, when the Lithuanian nobility was not yet Polonized. At that time the Poles still had to pretend the Lithuanian nobility that this was not a takeover. The treaty of Krewo for personal union of Poland with Lithuania in 1385 was the first step in Poland's takeover of Lithuania. This union was declared indissoluble. This personal union meant that the Polish king should also be the ruler of Lithuania. Thus Lithuania ceased to be an independent country. What is also negative is that the historically wrong term "Poland-Lithuania" is used, although at least Lithuania is shown as part of the Polish Empire, although the wrong term is used to name the state. Unfortunately, many people and historians use also the wrong term commonwealth in connection with Polish history. But the term Commonwealth is inappropriate because it gives the impression that the state was a common wealth for Poles and Lithuanians alike. So the common wealth served both nations equally. But in reality the Lithuanians had to submit to the Poles and were largely Polonized and thus assimilated. It was actually a Polish empire completely dominated by the Poles. Lithuania was completely dominated by the Polish Empire like also the Ruthenians who were the ancestors of the Belarusians and Ukrainians. Poles completely dominated them all. The Lithuanians were voluntarily polonized and the Ruthenians partly too. All relevant was Polish like also the Polish currency Polski Złoty. Złoty means golden in Polish. The capitals of the entire state were the Polish cities of Krakow and Warsaw. The ruling Poles have also determined what the state should be called Polisch Rzeczpospolita! The Polish name was then adopted by the Lithuanians into the Lithuanian languages as "Žečpospolita". By the way, Polish term for nobility ”szlachta” was also adopted into Lithuanian as ”šlėkta” like many other Polish words. The majority of the loanwords in Lithuanian were from Polish. Using the term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth is absolutely wrong. Because this Polish state was a Polish Empire which was completely dominated by the Poles and the use of Lithuania in the name of the state is nonsensical, as it suggests a kind of equality that did not exist! Besides that the term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth based on a mistranslation and is therefore wrong. This term is wrong because the term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth is a modern invention in connection with Poland. A nonsensical invention by historians that does not correspond to reality. Moreover, the term is being used incorrectly because the Polish term Rzeczpospolita has been mistranslated as Commonwealth. So the term Commonwealth is used because of an incorrect translation. For that reason alone, one should not use this term. But the term should also not be used because the use of Lithuania in the name suggests a kind of equality that did not exist! The term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was not used at all in earlier times. It would be appropriate to speak of Rzeczpospolita is the traditional and official name of the Polish Empire as a whole, including all duchies and and all ruled territories. The name of the state Rzeczpospolita is a combination of rzecz "thing, matter" and pospolita "common", a calque of the Latin res publica (res "thing" + publica "public, common"), so the republic, incorrectly translated as Commonwealth in English. By the way, in Poland, the word Rzeczpospolita is used exclusively in relation to the Republic of Poland, while other republic is referred to in Polish as "republika". Used in international treaties and diplomacy, the state has been called the most serene ( most high) Rzeczpospolita Poland (Polish: Najjaśniejsza Rzeczpospolita Polska, Latin: Serenissima Res Publica Poloniae or also Rzeczpospolita of the Polish Kingdom or Rzeczpospolita of Poland. Its residents simply referred it in the everyday language as Rzeczpospolita or Poland occasionally also the crown. But the state was never called Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Never!!! If one wants to use a more modern term one can use Polish Empire as also the term Swedish Empire is used. In any case, it would make sense to use the Polish proper name Rzeczpospolita as a designation for this state, which was actually still internationally common in the 19th century when talking about Poland before the partitions. The term Rzeczpospolita seems difficult to pronounce for non-Poles. But that is not the case at all. With a little practice, anyone can pronounce the term correctly, even you. A little help: Rz is pronounced like the "isi" in vision. So virzon sounds like vision. Cz sounds like the "ch" in church. So Czurcz sounds like church. But if one just use "sh" instead of "rz", that sounds close to Polish. "Ch" can be used instead of "cz". So Shechpospolita would be written in English, which could be pronounced without problems. So there is no reason not to use this correct term.
China was fighting the turks. Why do you think they built 13k miles long wall? They were sick of fighting them for so long so they decided to just keep the damn turks out.
Yes, it's identical to the ancient history to the Mongols: full of appropriated culture, appropriated science, and the spread of diseases. Though to be fair, they did not kill even remotely as many people as the mongols, but the plague they spread is yet to be wiped.

There's a game called Rival Regions which is a nations building and war game, and you can view the map at a certain date and see its history throughout the 4~5 years of the game. It's amazing, and I believe it can be implemented for real life map or maybe it already existed.

Wow... I have been studying spiritual and religious traditions throughout ancient civilizations, and this graphic you have provided adds a whole new layer of complexity to the concepts and ideas I have become aware of through my studies... Very cool to see this!
can i ask I thought something, I know who that Unknown is from 200000 BCE to 8000 BCE. You forgot something in the name of Adam and Eve until they were NOE, Noah was the one who built the Ark. Read in Genesis chapter six and the bible says: And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and women would give birth. They multiply because of the Childbirth there is LAMECH, CAIN, ABEL, JARED, MAHALALEL, and Others in the Bible. Until 8000 BCE they separated from Man after God confused the LANGUAGE OF MAN and so they could not understand each other's LANGUAGE when they built the TOWER OF BABEL in 9000 BCE.

Indeed
The way we typically learn history is in snippets of important events: The Ancient Greeks, The Holy Roman Empire, the Punic Wars, 1st and 2nd World War, the founding of the America's, etc. The main issue I've had in fully understanding history is tying all these snippets together in reference to each other. Knowing that when event x was going on, event y was also happening on the other side of the world really allows you to have a deeper understanding of history. This video helped me bridge this gap and I will come back to it multiple times for historical reference when needed. Thanks so much for creating this.
Therefore, historians are divided into ancient, medieval, modern historians, and so on. A person simply cannot fit the whole story in his head.
That is what the west will tell you about history XD
@@prasadmankar7650 Are you implying that in other parts of the world they teach literally everything historically in a linear and all-encompassing fashion? Or are you just taking issue with the specific events I mentioned? I imagine if I were to go to a non-western country I'd still learn history the same way, but the specific events would change. Or are you just leaping at an opportunity to take a shot at the west because of personal biases?

By the way, regarding the Polish Empire and Lithuania, the video is completely wrong. Because in the video Lithuania is shown as an independent country from 1385 to 1569. But that is wrong, because with the treaty of Krewo of 1385, the Polish king became the ruler of Lithuania which then became part of the Polish Empire, which arose from the annexation of Lithuania to Poland. Because of the personal union of Poland with Lithuania in 1385, Poland became an empire and Lithuania, like other territories, was part of the Polish Empire. The treaty of Krewo for personal union of Poland with Lithuania in 1385 was the first step in Poland's takeover of Lithuania. This union was declared indissoluble. This personal union meant that the Polish king should also be the ruler of Lithuania. In fact, the union treaty also contained the provision of the attaching of Lithuanian and Ruthenian lands to the Polish Crown. However, the various other treaties which followed this treaty actually meant the takeover and Polonization of Lithuania too. A significant resolution was the adoption of Polish administrative divisions and offices like voivode and castellan by Lithuania. Even more important was that in total 47 selected Lithuanian nobles were adopted by Polish nobles heraldic families and granted Polish coats of arm. This symbolic gesture signified their desire to adopt Polish customs and integrate into Polish society. Because of this possibility of heraldic adoption, Poland had a much higher proportion of nobles than other European kingdoms. In Poland, the proportion of nobles in the total population was already 10-15% in the 16th century, in the rest of Europe it was 1%. Thus the Union of Krewo in 1385 signified the beginnings of the strengthened Polonization of Lithuania. Strengthened Polonization because the Polonization actually started before the Union of Krewo, because Lithuania was Christianized from Poland. Priests, especially from Poland, Christianized Lithuania and priests had great influence at that time, so there was already a Polish Influence in Lithuania before the Union of Krewo. So the Polonization of Lithuania started with the Christianization and was finally completed with the Union of Lublin in 1569.
Polish dominance about the Lithuanians, so also about the Ruthenians illustrates also that the Polish king automatically became the grand duke of Lithuania. That was by far not the only additional title of the Polish kings. For example, the Polish King Sigismund III Vasa had in addition to the Polish royal title, Grand Duke of Lithuania and Grand Duke of Finland, Prince of Rus, Prussia, Mazovia, Volhynia, Podolia, Podlaskie, Severia, Czernihów, Samogitia, Livonia, also Hereditary King of Sweden. Rus stands for Russia because the Poles ruled large areas of Russia at the time, and even Moscow was briefly occupied by Polish troops. Samogitia stands for the Baltic States, which the Polish king largely ruled. Hereditary king of Sweden and Grand Duke of Finland because the Polish king was also the king of Sweden for a short time. But he lost the power in Sweden and Finland. This list of titles makes it clear that Grand Duke of Lithuania was just one of the many titles of the Polish king. But the most important title was always King of Poland. In the end, the title Grand Duke of Lithuania was just one of many Polish king's titles. The title was particularly important only at the beginning of the Polish rule over Lithuania, when the Lithuanian nobility was not yet Polonized. At that time the Poles still had to pretend the Lithuanian nobility that this was not a takeover. The treaty of Krewo for personal union of Poland with Lithuania in 1385 was the first step in Poland's takeover of Lithuania. This union was declared indissoluble. This personal union meant that the Polish king should also be the ruler of Lithuania. Thus Lithuania ceased to be an independent country.
What is also negative is that the historically wrong term "Poland-Lithuania" is used, although at least Lithuania is shown as part of the Polish Empire, although the wrong term is used to name the state. Unfortunately, many people and historians use also the wrong term commonwealth in connection with Polish history. But the term Commonwealth is inappropriate because it gives the impression that the state was a common wealth for Poles and Lithuanians alike. So the common wealth served both nations equally. But in reality the Lithuanians had to submit to the Poles and were largely Polonized and thus assimilated. It was actually a Polish empire completely dominated by the Poles. Lithuania was completely dominated by the Polish Empire like also the Ruthenians who were the ancestors of the Belarusians and Ukrainians. Poles completely dominated them all. The Lithuanians were voluntarily polonized and the Ruthenians partly too. All relevant was Polish like also the Polish currency Polski Złoty. Złoty means golden in Polish. The capitals of the entire state were the Polish cities of Krakow and Warsaw. The ruling Poles have also determined what the state should be called Polisch Rzeczpospolita! The Polish name was then adopted by the Lithuanians into the Lithuanian languages as "Žečpospolita". By the way, Polish term for nobility ”szlachta” was also adopted into Lithuanian as ”šlėkta” like many other Polish words. The majority of the loanwords in Lithuanian were from Polish.
Using the term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth is absolutely wrong. Because this Polish state was a Polish Empire which was completely dominated by the Poles and the use of Lithuania in the name of the state is nonsensical, as it suggests a kind of equality that did not exist! Besides that the term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth based on a mistranslation and is therefore wrong. This term is wrong because the term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth is a modern invention in connection with Poland. A nonsensical invention by historians that does not correspond to reality. Moreover, the term is being used incorrectly because the Polish term Rzeczpospolita has been mistranslated as Commonwealth. So the term Commonwealth is used because of an incorrect translation. For that reason alone, one should not use this term. But the term should also not be used because the use of Lithuania in the name suggests a kind of equality that did not exist! The term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was not used at all in earlier times. It would be appropriate to speak of Rzeczpospolita is the traditional and official name of the Polish Empire as a whole, including all duchies and and all ruled territories. The name of the state Rzeczpospolita is a combination of rzecz "thing, matter" and pospolita "common", a calque of the Latin res publica (res "thing" + publica "public, common"), so the republic, incorrectly translated as Commonwealth in English. By the way, in Poland, the word Rzeczpospolita is used exclusively in relation to the Republic of Poland, while other republic is referred to in Polish as "republika". Used in international treaties and diplomacy, the state has been called the most serene ( most high) Rzeczpospolita Poland (Polish: Najjaśniejsza Rzeczpospolita Polska, Latin: Serenissima Res Publica Poloniae or also Rzeczpospolita of the Polish Kingdom or Rzeczpospolita of Poland. Its residents simply referred it in the everyday language as Rzeczpospolita or Poland occasionally also the crown. But the state was never called Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Never!!! If one wants to use a more modern term one can use Polish Empire as also the term Swedish Empire is used.
In any case, it would make sense to use the Polish proper name Rzeczpospolita as a designation for this state, which was actually still internationally common in the 19th century when talking about Poland before the partitions. The term Rzeczpospolita seems difficult to pronounce for non-Poles. But that is not the case at all. With a little practice, anyone can pronounce the term correctly, even you. A little help: Rz is pronounced like the "isi" in vision. So virzon sounds like vision. Cz sounds like the "ch" in church. So Czurcz sounds like church. But if one just use "sh" instead of "rz", that sounds close to Polish. "Ch" can be used instead of "cz". So Shechpospolita would be written in English, which could be pronounced without problems. So there is no reason not to use this correct term.

I am in awe with this video and don’t understand how this was made. Introducing tons of data to a map software? still a daunting job… Really would like to know.
Thank you so much for it, probably my favorite video in internet.
It's made by stitching together slides of images, each new slide changes borders, names, civilizations, etc. Throw in some editing effects like fading text on a separate layer, and there's the video. Judging by the sheer size and length of the video, as well as all the research that went into it, it must have taken a long time. Anyone can do it with a simple image editor, but it takes a lot of effort to see it through.
@@TheAwesomeAlan Thank you. It´s true that stitching slides perfectly works, being a daunting work anyway.

Most accurate map I've seen, so far very few inconsistencies. It's impossible to be 100% accurate but this is REALLY close. Props dude.
with all the small kingdoms/principality/duchy/sultanates and on popping up everywhere and disappearing a year later it would take ages to make a 100% accurate map.

Maturity is when you realise that this is the history that remains after thousands of invasions which destroyed many advanced civilisations leaving behind no clue for us to know their existence😢
After watching this, the reality of 4 THOUSAND years becomes insanely hard to grasp when each of us will ultimately only experience a fraction of that. To see this unfold makes it hard believe the number of lives that have come before us and the possible number of those to come after. I also suddenly feel less like this is my home, and more the home of those who came before us.
It also puts into perspective just how mind-numbingly slow and gradual the pace at which the world evolves is.
@@zzztriplezzz5264 everything changed after the Industrial Revolution. Now the world evolves at break neck speed
@@omjagdeesh8731 When it comes to technology and technology-related social change, yes. But the more fundamental aspects of culture, such as language, writing system, social beliefs, philosophy / religion, etc. still change on roughly the same timescale as they did in pre-industrial times (500 - 2000 years, depending on the aspect in question).
Moreover, the current pace of change is due to the process of industrialization (of which scientific-technological modernization is a part). Once the entire world has completed the process of industrialization (today, some countries have only just begun industrializing), perhaps in 200 years, then it's very much possible that the pace of change will slow back down.
@@lunais1433Great comment. Some countries are already less industrial than they were.
@@joecurran2811 What do you mean? In the context of my post, modern science and technology is part of the industrialization process, since it's a direct result of the Industrial Revolution. Therefore, even so-called "post-industrial" states are industrial.

Persia: Well that’s a pretty specific and irrational fear.
Rome: Yeah, you’re probably right.
Persia: Best we keep fighting for another 26 years with no real gain until we bleed our men and resources dry

Persia: Same here. I'm fighting a pointless war with you where my supply's are over-extended, and my armies are dying by mass, all while Armenia is giving me shit and while the Turks to the north are invading because I keep intervening in their civil war that I have no real interest in. Along with having terrible rulers.
Rome: Man, we are so prepared.
Persia: I know, right?
majdi omar u do realize that I was stating how unlikely it all was and how little Rome and Persia were prepared, I wasn’t taking it literally
Well, since Rome invented Christianity at the very least and the Syrians/Persians created proto-Islamic monotheisms prior to this, both are to blame for Islam and the world today, in a sense. Although one has to hand it to the Persians, they were 'great' and for a long time. The Roman Empire, on the other hand, killed itself pretty fast (though many argue the Roman Empire won and is 'alive' because the world is currently Romanised from the Near East all the way to North America). Well, that's what totalitarianism is good at.

But regarding the Polish Empire and Lithuania, the video is completely wrong. Because in the video Lithuania is shown as an independent country from 1385 to 1569. But that is wrong, because with the treaty of Krewo of 1385, the Polish king became the ruler of Lithuania which then became part of the Polish Empire, which arose from the annexation of Lithuania to Poland. Because of the personal union of Poland with Lithuania in 1385, Poland became an empire and Lithuania, like other territories, was part of the Polish Empire. The treaty of Krewo for personal union of Poland with Lithuania in 1385 was the first step in Poland's takeover of Lithuania. This union was declared indissoluble. This personal union meant that the Polish king should also be the ruler of Lithuania. In fact, the union treaty also contained the provision of the attaching of Lithuanian and Ruthenian lands to the Polish Crown. However, the various other treaties which followed this treaty actually meant the takeover and Polonization of Lithuania too. A significant resolution was the adoption of Polish administrative divisions and offices like voivode and castellan by Lithuania. Even more important was that in total 47 selected Lithuanian nobles were adopted by Polish nobles heraldic families and granted Polish coats of arm. This symbolic gesture signified their desire to adopt Polish customs and integrate into Polish society. Because of this possibility of heraldic adoption, Poland had a much higher proportion of nobles than other European kingdoms. In Poland, the proportion of nobles in the total population was already 10-15% in the 16th century, in the rest of Europe it was 1%. Thus the Union of Krewo in 1385 signified the beginnings of the strengthened Polonization of Lithuania. Strengthened Polonization because the Polonization actually started before the Union of Krewo, because Lithuania was Christianized from Poland. Priests, especially from Poland, Christianized Lithuania and priests had great influence at that time, so there was already a Polish Influence in Lithuania before the Union of Krewo. So the Polonization of Lithuania started with the Christianization and was finally completed with the Union of Lublin in 1569.
Polish dominance about the Lithuanians, so also about the Ruthenians illustrates also that the Polish king automatically became the grand duke of Lithuania. That was by far not the only additional title of the Polish kings. For example, the Polish King Sigismund III Vasa had in addition to the Polish royal title, Grand Duke of Lithuania and Grand Duke of Finland, Prince of Rus, Prussia, Mazovia, Volhynia, Podolia, Podlaskie, Severia, Czernihów, Samogitia, Livonia, also Hereditary King of Sweden. Rus stands for Russia because the Poles ruled large areas of Russia at the time, and even Moscow was briefly occupied by Polish troops. Samogitia stands for the Baltic States, which the Polish king largely ruled. Hereditary king of Sweden and Grand Duke of Finland because the Polish king was also the king of Sweden for a short time. But he lost the power in Sweden and Finland. This list of titles makes it clear that Grand Duke of Lithuania was just one of the many titles of the Polish king. But the most important title was always King of Poland. In the end, the title Grand Duke of Lithuania was just one of many Polish king's titles. The title was particularly important only at the beginning of the Polish rule over Lithuania, when the Lithuanian nobility was not yet Polonized. At that time the Poles still had to pretend the Lithuanian nobility that this was not a takeover. The treaty of Krewo for personal union of Poland with Lithuania in 1385 was the first step in Poland's takeover of Lithuania. This union was declared indissoluble. This personal union meant that the Polish king should also be the ruler of Lithuania. Thus Lithuania ceased to be an independent country.
What is also negative is that the historically wrong term "Poland-Lithuania" is used, although at least Lithuania is shown as part of the Polish Empire, although the wrong term is used to name the state. Unfortunately, many people and historians use also the wrong term commonwealth in connection with Polish history. But the term Commonwealth is inappropriate because it gives the impression that the state was a common wealth for Poles and Lithuanians alike. So the common wealth served both nations equally. But in reality the Lithuanians had to submit to the Poles and were largely Polonized and thus assimilated. It was actually a Polish empire completely dominated by the Poles. Lithuania was completely dominated by the Polish Empire like also the Ruthenians who were the ancestors of the Belarusians and Ukrainians. Poles completely dominated them all. The Lithuanians were voluntarily polonized and the Ruthenians partly too. All relevant was Polish like also the Polish currency Polski Złoty. Złoty means golden in Polish. The capitals of the entire state were the Polish cities of Krakow and Warsaw. The ruling Poles have also determined what the state should be called Polisch Rzeczpospolita! The Polish name was then adopted by the Lithuanians into the Lithuanian languages as "Žečpospolita". By the way, Polish term for nobility ”szlachta” was also adopted into Lithuanian as ”šlėkta” like many other Polish words. The majority of the loanwords in Lithuanian were from Polish.
Using the term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth is absolutely wrong. Because this Polish state was a Polish Empire which was completely dominated by the Poles and the use of Lithuania in the name of the state is nonsensical, as it suggests a kind of equality that did not exist! Besides that the term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth based on a mistranslation and is therefore wrong. This term is wrong because the term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth is a modern invention in connection with Poland. A nonsensical invention by historians that does not correspond to reality. Moreover, the term is being used incorrectly because the Polish term Rzeczpospolita has been mistranslated as Commonwealth. So the term Commonwealth is used because of an incorrect translation. For that reason alone, one should not use this term. But the term should also not be used because the use of Lithuania in the name suggests a kind of equality that did not exist! The term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was not used at all in earlier times. It would be appropriate to speak of Rzeczpospolita is the traditional and official name of the Polish Empire as a whole, including all duchies and and all ruled territories. The name of the state Rzeczpospolita is a combination of rzecz "thing, matter" and pospolita "common", a calque of the Latin res publica (res "thing" + publica "public, common"), so the republic, incorrectly translated as Commonwealth in English. By the way, in Poland, the word Rzeczpospolita is used exclusively in relation to the Republic of Poland, while other republic is referred to in Polish as "republika". Used in international treaties and diplomacy, the state has been called the most serene ( most high) Rzeczpospolita Poland (Polish: Najjaśniejsza Rzeczpospolita Polska, Latin: Serenissima Res Publica Poloniae or also Rzeczpospolita of the Polish Kingdom or Rzeczpospolita of Poland. Its residents simply referred it in the everyday language as Rzeczpospolita or Poland occasionally also the crown. But the state was never called Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Never!!! If one wants to use a more modern term one can use Polish Empire as also the term Swedish Empire is used.
In any case, it would make sense to use the Polish proper name Rzeczpospolita as a designation for this state, which was actually still internationally common in the 19th century when talking about Poland before the partitions. The term Rzeczpospolita seems difficult to pronounce for non-Poles. But that is not the case at all. With a little practice, anyone can pronounce the term correctly, even you. A little help: Rz is pronounced like the "isi" in vision. So virzon sounds like vision. Cz sounds like the "ch" in church. So Czurcz sounds like church. But if one just use "sh" instead of "rz", that sounds close to Polish. "Ch" can be used instead of "cz". So Shechpospolita would be written in English, which could be pronounced without problems. So there is no reason not to use this correct term.

Why does it really scare me ..
Pierre Martinez™ When more humans exist, more humans f*ck(sorry by using this term). That means humans grew in a geometric scale. But that isn't the only reason. Things like the food production methods and the developement of cures for some diseases contributed for a faster population growing last years(sorry for bad english).
(I'm french my english is not better haha)
Yes and the life experency is increasing each year so people live longer whenever more babys born
But there will a limit or something if the population effectif is still growing by square, earth's gonna explose
Pierre Martinez™ Some researches say the world population will stop growing and estabilish when the global population hit around 9.000.000.000 people.
Researches based on what ?
I don't think overpopulation will stop people making babies
Researches based onthe birth rate, for example. The people is actually making less babies. The contraceptive methods bagan to be popular in the second part of the century XX, and many countries started to get his people more instructed after the lifestyle changed from the farms to the cities. In certain countries,(like mine, Brazil) the birth rate drastically decreased last years. From families with around 7,10,13 children, to the nowadays families with less than 3. That's even the cause of problems with retirement plans. The world population wil theoretically stop to growing when the birth's average be 2 or less childs per family.

This is easily the best history video on youtube.
Great job Ollie! I appreciate it!
I love this video so much I sent the link to my former history professor to use as curriculum in future classes. He talks at great length about the Indus valley, Mesopotamia and Egypt as the introduction to his class. This video would be a great way of showing the development of the first three major civilizations on our earth.
Lesson learned : there was NO UKRAINE. Never was. Never should be ! it was all Russia there, KIEVIAN RUS

+Ollie Bye You surely knew it was impossible to make a 100% accurate video, but you did great!
TANK YOU TOO TO MAKE THIS VIDEO!!!
Wow... I have been studying spiritual and religious traditions throughout ancient civilizations, and this graphic you have provided adds a whole new layer of complexity to the concepts and ideas I have become aware of through my studies... Very cool to see this!
can i ask I thought something, I know who that Unknown is from 200000 BCE to 8000 BCE.
You forgot something in the name of Adam and Eve until they were NOE, Noah was the one who built the Ark. Read in Genesis chapter six and the bible says: And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and women would give birth.
They multiply because of the Childbirth there is LAMECH, CAIN, ABEL, JARED, MAHALALEL, and Others in the Bible. Until 8000 BCE they separated from Man after God confused the LANGUAGE OF MAN and so they could not understand each other's LANGUAGE when they built the TOWER OF BABEL in 9000 BCE.
Regarding the Polish Empire and Lithuania, the video is completely wrong. Because in the video Lithuania is shown as an independent country from 1385 to 1569. But that is wrong, because with the treaty of Krewo of 1385, the Polish king became the ruler of Lithuania which then became part of the Polish Empire, which arose from the annexation of Lithuania to Poland. Because of the personal union of Poland with Lithuania in 1385, Poland became an empire and Lithuania, like other territories, was part of the Polish Empire. The treaty of Krewo for personal union of Poland with Lithuania in 1385 was the first step in Poland's takeover of Lithuania. This union was declared indissoluble. This personal union meant that the Polish king should also be the ruler of Lithuania. In fact, the union treaty also contained the provision of the attaching of Lithuanian and Ruthenian lands to the Polish Crown. However, the various other treaties which followed this treaty actually meant the takeover and Polonization of Lithuania too. A significant resolution was the adoption of Polish administrative divisions and offices like voivode and castellan by Lithuania. Even more important was that in total 47 selected Lithuanian nobles were adopted by Polish nobles heraldic families and granted Polish coats of arm. This symbolic gesture signified their desire to adopt Polish customs and integrate into Polish society. Because of this possibility of heraldic adoption, Poland had a much higher proportion of nobles than other European kingdoms. In Poland, the proportion of nobles in the total population was already 10-15% in the 16th century, in the rest of Europe it was 1%. Thus the Union of Krewo in 1385 signified the beginnings of the strengthened Polonization of Lithuania. Strengthened Polonization because the Polonization actually started before the Union of Krewo, because Lithuania was Christianized from Poland. Priests, especially from Poland, Christianized Lithuania and priests had great influence at that time, so there was already a Polish Influence in Lithuania before the Union of Krewo. So the Polonization of Lithuania started with the Christianization and was finally completed with the Union of Lublin in 1569.
Polish dominance about the Lithuanians, so also about the Ruthenians illustrates also that the Polish king automatically became the grand duke of Lithuania. That was by far not the only additional title of the Polish kings. For example, the Polish King Sigismund III Vasa had in addition to the Polish royal title, Grand Duke of Lithuania and Grand Duke of Finland, Prince of Rus, Prussia, Mazovia, Volhynia, Podolia, Podlaskie, Severia, Czernihów, Samogitia, Livonia, also Hereditary King of Sweden. Rus stands for Russia because the Poles ruled large areas of Russia at the time, and even Moscow was briefly occupied by Polish troops. Samogitia stands for the Baltic States, which the Polish king largely ruled. Hereditary king of Sweden and Grand Duke of Finland because the Polish king was also the king of Sweden for a short time. But he lost the power in Sweden and Finland. This list of titles makes it clear that Grand Duke of Lithuania was just one of the many titles of the Polish king. But the most important title was always King of Poland. In the end, the title Grand Duke of Lithuania was just one of many Polish king's titles. The title was particularly important only at the beginning of the Polish rule over Lithuania, when the Lithuanian nobility was not yet Polonized. At that time the Poles still had to pretend the Lithuanian nobility that this was not a takeover. The treaty of Krewo for personal union of Poland with Lithuania in 1385 was the first step in Poland's takeover of Lithuania. This union was declared indissoluble. This personal union meant that the Polish king should also be the ruler of Lithuania. Thus Lithuania ceased to be an independent country.
What is also negative is that the historically wrong term "Poland-Lithuania" is used, although at least Lithuania is shown as part of the Polish Empire, although the wrong term is used to name the state. Unfortunately, many people and historians use also the wrong term commonwealth in connection with Polish history. But the term Commonwealth is inappropriate because it gives the impression that the state was a common wealth for Poles and Lithuanians alike. So the common wealth served both nations equally. But in reality the Lithuanians had to submit to the Poles and were largely Polonized and thus assimilated. It was actually a Polish empire completely dominated by the Poles. Lithuania was completely dominated by the Polish Empire like also the Ruthenians who were the ancestors of the Belarusians and Ukrainians. Poles completely dominated them all. The Lithuanians were voluntarily polonized and the Ruthenians partly too. All relevant was Polish like also the Polish currency Polski Złoty. Złoty means golden in Polish. The capitals of the entire state were the Polish cities of Krakow and Warsaw. The ruling Poles have also determined what the state should be called Polisch Rzeczpospolita! The Polish name was then adopted by the Lithuanians into the Lithuanian languages as "Žečpospolita". By the way, Polish term for nobility ”szlachta” was also adopted into Lithuanian as ”šlėkta” like many other Polish words. The majority of the loanwords in Lithuanian were from Polish.
Using the term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth is absolutely wrong. Because this Polish state was a Polish Empire which was completely dominated by the Poles and the use of Lithuania in the name of the state is nonsensical, as it suggests a kind of equality that did not exist! Besides that the term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth based on a mistranslation and is therefore wrong. This term is wrong because the term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth is a modern invention in connection with Poland. A nonsensical invention by historians that does not correspond to reality. Moreover, the term is being used incorrectly because the Polish term Rzeczpospolita has been mistranslated as Commonwealth. So the term Commonwealth is used because of an incorrect translation. For that reason alone, one should not use this term. But the term should also not be used because the use of Lithuania in the name suggests a kind of equality that did not exist! The term Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was not used at all in earlier times. It would be appropriate to speak of Rzeczpospolita is the traditional and official name of the Polish Empire as a whole, including all duchies and and all ruled territories. The name of the state Rzeczpospolita is a combination of rzecz "thing, matter" and pospolita "common", a calque of the Latin res publica (res "thing" + publica "public, common"), so the republic, incorrectly translated as Commonwealth in English. By the way, in Poland, the word Rzeczpospolita is used exclusively in relation to the Republic of Poland, while other republic is referred to in Polish as "republika". Used in international treaties and diplomacy, the state has been called the most serene ( most high) Rzeczpospolita Poland (Polish: Najjaśniejsza Rzeczpospolita Polska, Latin: Serenissima Res Publica Poloniae or also Rzeczpospolita of the Polish Kingdom or Rzeczpospolita of Poland. Its residents simply referred it in the everyday language as Rzeczpospolita or Poland occasionally also the crown. But the state was never called Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Never!!! If one wants to use a more modern term one can use Polish Empire as also the term Swedish Empire is used.
In any case, it would make sense to use the Polish proper name Rzeczpospolita as a designation for this state, which was actually still internationally common in the 19th century when talking about Poland before the partitions. The term Rzeczpospolita seems difficult to pronounce for non-Poles. But that is not the case at all. With a little practice, anyone can pronounce the term correctly, even you. A little help: Rz is pronounced like the "isi" in vision. So virzon sounds like vision. Cz sounds like the "ch" in church. So Czurcz sounds like church. But if one just use "sh" instead of "rz", that sounds close to Polish. "Ch" can be used instead of "cz". So Shechpospolita would be written in English, which could be pronounced without problems. So there is no reason not to use this correct term.

The History of the World: Every Year
The fact that Rome has been on the map for over 1700+ years is fucking nuts, considering how most of the other empires came and went
others are called empires only if they are of the same family(blood relatives), if the bloodline is broken it's called a new empire(even if it is the same empire).
if roman empire was categorised on this basis, how many dynasties will be created there?
True. But take a look at Egypt.
João Gabriel Yes Egypt was colossal. Indus Valley was next. Next maybe the Tamils viz. Pandyas and Cholas. Only then comes Rome
I'm always very impressed by Egypt, Rome and China when I watch this video.
