    The battle of Salamis was not fought by the Roman Republic and the Parthian Empire but by the Athenian and the Persian fleets. At this time Rome existed but it only controlled parts of Italy while it did not have a fleet. And while we are at it. Hannibal of Carthage was not a king. Carthage was led by an aristocracy

    The Battle of Thermopylae was between SEVEN THOUSAND allied Greeks that included Spartans, Thespians, and Thebens (although led by Sparta) and between 120,000-300,000 Persians. NOT 300 Spartans only. That number is myth-making that has been perpetrated throughout history and ignores all the non-Spartan Greeks who participated. Although the very last piece of the battle did involve mostly only Spartans on the allied Greek side. Also this was the bronze age and iron and steel were NOT the metal making the clashing sounds at this battle. The only major metal making sounds at this battle was bronze. Decent video but lots of inaccuracies like these two are littered throughout this video.

      It was a Roman consul named Gaius Claudius Nero that was one of the consuls leading the Roman army at Metaurus. The other consul was also in the battle, Marcus Livius. So it was a Nero, but definitely not the emporer Nero. Being a Claudia he was an ancestor of the emporers Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius, and Nero. Augustus married Livia and founded the Julio-Claudian dynasty that ended when Nero committed suicide.

The Thespians conformed to Spartan tactics and leadership, and had the force not been overwhelmed by forces both in front of and behind them, they would have easily held the pass until the other Greek city states could get their acts together.

    I'd suggest moving on to another video, one that doesn't tell you that emperor Nero fought the Carthaginians, or refers to Hannibal as 'King Hannibal of Carthage'.
    Edit: As well as several other howlers pointed out by others in the comments.

    Your grasp of history is a bit wanting. Emperor Nero was not in command of Roman troops during the second Punic war. It was over 200 years before he was born. Many other errors in this video, even a quick look at Wiki would have put you right.

    The Battle of Thermopylae wasn't fought by 300 Spartans vs the Persians. The Greeks were led by 300 Spartans... but the Greeks had 7.000+ men there who each took turns on the front lines to let those that had just fought rest.

    WTF? There were NO ROMANS at Salamis, in 480 B.C. ROME barely existed, buddy. Parthians? I don't know when the Parthians became a force, but they sure f'd up a few Roman legions at Carrhae -- in 53 BCE, some 420 YEARS AFTER SALAMIS. Is this some A.I. b.s. or did someone actually write this narration? I HAVE TWO WORDS: FACT CHECK.
    Next , Gaugamela was near to or in present day IRBIL, in Iraq, not Mosul. That's why the alternative name for Gaugamela is Arbela (Irbil). Irbil (Arbela) and Mosul are in the same region -- but still about 100 miles apart. Jeez.
    Now I'm not going to sit through the other 12 or 13 battles. Why? I may wind up fact checking all of them. (From the remarks below, that would be so...)
    If we don't know where we humans have been, we don't know where we're going. Given this level of historical accuracy -- in the first 2 minutes of a 19 minute piece, at least 2 major errors -- no wonder we homo sapiens have taken so many wrong turns. This is junior high bullshit.

    I was going to watch stupid video, but reading transcript is faster.
    11:28 said Zhao defeated attacked Qin.
    Go research Wikipedia n other TH-cam video.
    Attackers Qin defeated defender Zhao.
    The description on Qin army should have been Zhao situation.
    The official casualty on Zhao was 400k. Qin also suffered a lot casualties.
    People believed it was inflated. We don't have enough evidence to support either way.
    However, casualty was a lot for Zhao that Zhao could no longer recover.
    Qin suffered a lot that after failed to destroy Zhao, Qin could not bring such huge battle 20 years later.

    Battle of Salamis was between the Athenian fleet and the Persian Empire. A year ago, this was brought up to correct. Yet, it has not been edited to correct this blatant historical error.
