Overly Sarcastic Productions is one of my favorite TH-camr‘s, the one you are listening to right now is Blue the other is Red, Blue does most of the historical aspect of the channel and Red covers literature, trope talks as well as mythology if you were interested in any of that aspects
I mean they are just a bunch of teens who think they know everything because they have a degree but if you ask them about late Saxon expansion in Europe or Sino-russian boarder conflicts they have no idea what your talking about. They still do a great job explaining what they do know plus that renaming of the "early modern period" in there video on the French empire was great.
@@Newbmann find me a single historian who will be able to tell you literally everything about literally every period about literally every country. They do what they do well and they explain things in an enjoyable manner, no need to be all "well they cant do this and that so theyre not *real* historians" like cmon man have some tact. A true person of profession knows they never stop learning, and stays humble.
I recommend checking out more OSP videos. Obviously the history ones, they have a video on Cleopatra i found interesting. You might find it interesting as well.

No, caste system was rigid and was by birth only. There is overwhelming genetic evidence for that. Even bhagavad gita has evidence for it. These days fake history trying to whitewash and make India look good is in market.
The Indian kingdoms actually left a lot in terms of historical documentation. That was until the British crown annexed the Majority of the subcontinent. They started to burn many historical archives. I know this because I am Tamil and I live in India.
@@tejakaruturi I actually do know about it so I think you're the one in need of some pedagogy. Let me educate you. Most of the Indian records and history were either passed down through oral tradition, or written on palm leaves which degrade more easily than parchment/vellum in our hot and humid climate. It is telling that a large proportion of our primary sources for many prominent kingdoms/empires come in the form of rock inscriptions. Additionally, there were major violent events like the sacking of Nalanda and Taxaxila that would have resulted in the destruction of large central archives. This is not unique to India; we know relatively little about the Islamic caliphates and the various kingdoms of Central Asia before the mongol conquest due to the sacking of Baghdad. However, the greater Indosphere produced tons of records, so it is a bit hand wavy to say that they all disappeared due to degradation and the end of oral tradition, especially given the sheer number of semi literate people we would expect to see over the years. The second reason would be decentralized polities. Throughout history, there were relatively few times when all of India was united under a single political entity - which meant that record keeping was fragmented. Additionally, unlike say China/Japan, where new regions that were conquered by the central dynasty were wholly subsumed into the culture of the dominant power and a narrative was created to show why they should have been subsumed into them, this was generally not the case in India, where regional power centers abounded as long as they provided military support and tribute to the emperor. I recommend Odd Compass’s video on Ashoka for an exploration of how this worked under the Mauryan Empire. Of course, this is not to say that no records were kept - far from it. It simply means that there is no single, centralized history of records that subsequent rulers used to draw legitimacy from and add to like in China - a canon, if you will. Europe had institutions like the church to provide some continuity in record keeping as well. Some commenters have pointed out that the sangam literature or archives of the Mughals and various princely states are still quite extensive, which gets me to the third reason - the study of ancient and pre-modern India was not prioritized by the state or academia, for reasons including difficulty (easier to learn about it through European accounts of exploration at the British library than digging through an old palace’s archives), funding/resources (a young poor country has other things to do), and political narrative building (initially, the focus was on creating a narrative of unified india through the fight against colonialism, now under hindutva leaders it’s about creating a natives vs outsiders dichotomy). I will note that the latter is not unique to India and similar, accurate efforts at nationalist narrative building in China are underway and facing pushback from the West, even when the narrative is now found to be true (eg Shang dynasty oracle bones). We also cannot understate the effect of western colonialism in removing/looting records and artifacts from India, and keeping their own records/accounts in their home countries (anecdote: a friend of mine in Mumbai is a map collector and has only been able to collect Indian maps from abroad). Additionally, I am sure there is a ton of archival material in various government offices and archives too that are not easily accessible to trained historians, let alone average citizens. In conclusion, there are a number of reasons why we don’t seem to have as extensive records of India compared to other civilizations. This is more perception than reality however, and I am sure that much more will be discovered in our lifetimes.
@@tejakaruturi Mongols burned the library of Baghdad till the river turned black from ink, bronze age middle East was a hotbed for unfathomable violence for millennia, Qin shi Huang buried scholars alive, library of Alexandria was destroyed, Jews were slaughtered and killed by Romans,etc. Invasions and suppression of knowledge is not at all unique to India, and yet we have a distinct lack of recorded history compared to all the above mentioned places. We still know a lot about Carthage even though the Romans thoroughly destroyed the city. It seems to me that if a culture valued keeping records, some of it would inevitably survive invasions.
This is actually the second video in a series of three. The first video from osp was "Ancient India" And the third was "Colonial India". You may want to check out those two videos.
Hi Mr. Terry, please react to more videos on ancient India, especially ancient India’s trade with Greece & romans. 🙏🏼 the land & water silk route, thanks for the video. These are very informative. Love from India.
btw, if geography is something you'd be interested in reacting in, I'd highly recommend geography now. Although history is only a partial focal point, you learn A LOT from all of their videos
Caste wasn't the main reason for conversion. Islam had its own social heirarchy in the middle ages that created ashraf, arzal, & pasmanda castes in islamic society. Conversion was largely due to jizya and structural discrimination against hindus.
@@stuarthastie6374 data speaks for itself. Majority of Muslims are from upper caste or ruling caste origins of their respective regions. Islam itself was not egalitarian in india. SC/STs even today don't convert to Islam.
Yeah but the narrator isn't as good. At least to me. And it's not because it's a women. Just wanna throw that out there cause I know some people will assume that's why.
@@Spartan265 Red and Blue's content is just made fundamentally different. Red makes hers almost like a conversation or story while Blue makes his almost like a proper lecture. Which is extremely appropriate, considering.
Caste system was on the basis of Guna (quality ) even in puranas , it was mentioned that a person can have multiple caste as per the nature he or she is possessing,. Ex:- A mother while studying and working on something that requires the use of intelligence, then she is Brahmana; when she is scolding her son/daughter to correct their mistakes, it is the Kshatriya nature; when she is managing household finances, she is displaying Vaishya nature, and when she is involved in day-to-day chores then she is utilizing her Shudra nature Plz sir , I respect you from my heart 💖 , but plz read something about hinduism Sikhism, janism ,vedism and budhism , they are not seperate idea but branches of the same tree("sanatan dharma") looking diffrent but still same . We are not polytheistic but specific and we do believe in a universal , genderless , formless soul "brahman" . Caste system as of now was created by British to divide and rule . You've great knowledge but not complete , try and research , don't mind if I've said something wrong that offended you , 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
I would like to see more of reaction on Indian history from you. Always love your content. You introduced me to several cool channels like sam o nella.
I knew OSP would appear on this channel eventually, and of course it was gonna be one of Blue's videos, since he does History, but I'm sure we'll see some of Red's video also since she also covers sime history when she talks about some myths amd folktales.
You are wrong on many counts - 1. Persian refuges arrived in India between 8th and 10th century. The golden period of Indian history w.r.t. science, math and art was much more earlier. So, no, they didn't help in that. Rather Arabs started translating Indian scientific texts much before in 5-6th century for their own benefits. 2. Islam accepted by lower caste people in India? Really? What's your source? I hope your source is not church influenced! Islamic invasion of India was one of the bloodiest event in world history. Stop being dependent on church funded "research" and read more Indic sources. 3. Buddhism was not popular in India. Really? Again, what's your source? Many times in history the whole of India became Buddhist. Hinduism came back thanks to the grate sages of Hinduism. And, yes, without any killing or forceful conversions. Hinduism lasted so long because of it's caste system - this is an easy answer given by those who failed to convert the country to Christianity or Islam. Please don't fall for such stupid explanations. Hinduism is the ONLY major ancient culture that managed to survive the onslaught of Islam and Christianity. Don't look for an easy answer. Read if you are really interested to know.
@@subhadeepbanerjee9191 to look at a coutry’s history, I’d look at their books and historians records. And yes, it was true. Muslims converted Hindus forcefully. Ashoka DID fight a war, after becoming a budhist, and converted forcefully many people. Hindus tho never forced anyone.
Correctly said. Unfortunately Bharat has not changed it's education system to incorporate these truths in the syllabus. When the country itself doesn't do justice to history taught to youth what can we expect other countries to talk about ?
@@LauchlinM. U can Wikipedia zero or aryabhatta anytime u wish to...Iam an athiest and doesnt give a shit about all the politicians and idiots trying to say everything in the mythologies are true... But due credit has to be given where it is due...It is true that we use the Indo Arabic alphabets now globally and not the Sanskrit or vedic numerals....but the "concept" of zero (not the"symbol") was created by Aryabhatta

Delhi saltinate going south is false information. They only got north. He didn't mention Marathi empire which defeated the Mughals and captured land till Afghanistan. Western sources and wikis are mostly false about Indian history.
No Islam came to India there may have been some who chose Islam but most were forcefully converted and Hinduism is monotheistic and henotheistic which existence of one God without denying the other while Islam and Christianity deny other religious beliefs or way of life and believe our way is the true way and Hinduism is not a religion a way of life like mandalorian
@@vedantjoshi3079 Well said. We ourselves need a revamp of the education system which glorifies bloodthirsty invaders and teaches "NOTHING" (heard everyone ?! NOTHING) about Bharat's history. We are only taught 3 things : Mughals and their family, Gandhi and the Non cooperation movements and finally an Independence which seemed to come out of nowhere (since the 1946 Naval/Army Mutiny being the main cause has never been mentioned !).
The taller and steeper the mountain the younger it is. Errosion rounds them off and takes them down pebble by pebble and grain by grain. An example in North American geography is the Rockies vs Appalachia, and how you can clearly tell the Rockies are much younger by a simple topographic comparison.
Just a small suggestion, you can change your mouse size through your windows settings. Not to use it all the time but maybe while you are recording you can enlarge it. You refer to where your mouse is a bit of your videos and it's kinda hard to see especially on mobile.
It's crazy for someone who rarely uploads, how influential Bill Wurtz is in the TH-cam history community. As soon as he mentioned the Tamil Kings, I went into full falsetto and sang, "Merchants, probably!"
I wonder sometimes as to why he is called Tamerlane in english especially when his dynasty is called Timurid dynasty. His name was Timur Lang after all.
sir.. for your kind information.. Buddisum,jainisam,Sarnaism and Sikhism is the part of Hinduism... jast like branch of 1 singal tree... this is like small tree's under the 1 big tree though the seed of this big tree.. if you not catisfide.. ask any buddhist, jain,sikh or indian sarna peoples. .. do you know sikhs ,Buddhist ,jain's god's & guru's are respected by Hinduism like our god and guru's.. we are "son's of one Mother".
You correct to an extent But Hinduism today is not the Hinduism from the olden times Old Hinduism had rigid cast structure and this is why people people accepted buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism. You can claim these are part of the same religion but that claim does not hold up to scrutiny either. By your logic Islam and christianity are also the same religion.
@@Red_Neck Wrong, cast system was never written in any of the upanishads. A “caste” was just a group of people practicing their work, and it actually meant a person’ work. And people could switch to an another caste. Same like Islam, in islam, people made their own meaning of everything taught in Islam and changed it greatly, people changed Hindu beliefs for their own profits.
@@urmumhuge5556 You are right but you will be wrong to say that caste system was never enforced by upper castes for their own profits And by old Hinduism i meant the time right after the maurya empires decline that is when caste system started to become more regid
Well kushans were considered indians because at that time frame Buddhism and Hinduism were defining factor who is considered indian in that sense kushans were Buddhists this considered indian
Please do OSP's series on China's history. It's really informative and has an aside from Jack Rackam about Wu Zetian, another entertaining history TH-camr.
No religion is devoid of caste in India. Even Christianity and Islam in India have castes now. Infact many Muslim groupings have been created in past two hundered years just to accomodate castes in Islam. Another reason why Wahabis look down on Indian Muslims as not real Muslims.
Technically, elevations are measured from their total height above mean high tide at sea level (MSL) for the entire earth. *In that case Mount Everest is Earth's highest mountain with 29,029 feet above mean sea level. Mauna Kea is recognized to be 13,803 feet above mean sea level.* If you measure Mauna Kea from the floor of the ocean to the top then the total is around 10,000 meters or 33,000 feet. This would be called the *"the total vertical distance between Mauna Kea’s base and summit"* rather then *“elevation”* to show the difference.
we dont really learn about anceint history in depth, and what they do teach us is pretty forgettable since we learnt about ancient history in like 6th or 7th grade and info about each dynasty or era was only like a page or half long history as a subject starts to be more detailed from 9th grade but there's no mention of ancient history anywhere, the focus is more in recent history, even today i know more about the french revolution or indian nationalism than our ancient history
U r wrong abt the caste system in Hinduism. In modern times it is not strictly followed anymore in Indian society. India already had a president belonging to backward class ..
Even thought I'm infinitely happy to see you finally react to OSP, whomever suggested you the video should have suggested that you started with the first one in the series ''History Summarized: Ancient India''. You certainly didn't knew about it, Mr. Terry, and maybe who suggested didn't knew either, so I'm not here making criticism, just saying it would be interesting to see you react to the first video, since it covers a lot of things this one didn't, and can make some points feel loose and incomplete to you, but they covered it before. It's a amazing channel, and I look forward for you to react to other videos of them. Great video, as always. One of the best reaction channels, probably the best, since you don't ''just react'' but add a lot in commentary.
who started hinduism? was it the indus river valey civilization or the aryans ? since they both been in india for so long i consider them both about as indian, so let's not get political here.
Actually "Hinduism " this word is paryayvachi/similarly of "indian civilization " ... and civilization is not be started by the one or two clan's ... developing a civilization is a long long time periods process ... we indian belive our civilization is old very very old.. more then millions and billions year's .. during this periods of time this indian civilization intract with many many outher civilization like American civilization (maya), african civilization (asura),European civilization (ra), astraluan (malay) ,midil east civilization (yawan) & many more..and developed the best "way of life" The Sanatan Dharam" meining the "low of univers"... Actually Hinduism is "low for civilization" for "civilians of this South East land"..

Most of the Indian records and history were either passed down through oral tradition, or written on palm leaves which degrade more easily than parchment/vellum in our hot and humid climate. It is telling that a large proportion of our primary sources for many prominent kingdoms/empires come in the form of rock inscriptions. Additionally, there were major violent events like the sacking of Nalanda and Taxaxila that would have resulted in the destruction of large central archives. This is not unique to India; we know relatively little about the Islamic caliphates and the various kingdoms of Central Asia before the mongol conquest due to the sacking of Baghdad.
However, the greater Indosphere produced tons of records, so it is a bit hand wavy to say that they all disappeared due to degradation and the end of oral tradition, especially given the sheer number of semi literate people we would expect to see over the years.
The second reason would be decentralized polities. Throughout history, there were relatively few times when all of India was united under a single political entity - which meant that record keeping was fragmented.

Buddisum,jainisam,Sarnaism and Sikhism is the part of Hinduism... jast like branch of 1 singal tree... this is like small tree's under the 1 big tree though the seed of this big tree.. if you not catisfide.. ask any buddhist, jain,sikh or indian sarna peoples. .. do you know sikhs ,Buddhist ,jain's god's & guru's are respected by Hinduism like our god and guru's.. we are "son's of one Mother".
You correct to an extent
But Hinduism today is not the Hinduism from the olden times
Old Hinduism had rigid cast structure and this is why people people accepted buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism.
You can claim these are part of the same religion but that claim does not hold up to scrutiny either.
By your logic Islam and christianity are also the same religion.
@@Red_Neck Wrong, cast system was never written in any of the upanishads. A “caste” was just a group of people practicing their work, and it actually meant a person’ work. And people could switch to an another caste. Same like Islam, in islam, people made their own meaning of everything taught in Islam and changed it greatly, people changed Hindu beliefs for their own profits.
@@urmumhuge5556
You are right but you will be wrong to say that caste system was never enforced by upper castes for their own profits
And by old Hinduism i meant the time right after the maurya empires decline that is when caste system started to become more regid
@@Red_Neck Agreed.
♥️♥️🙏🏻 Namaste,lovely video Sir😊🙏🏻

Please do OSP's series on China's history. It's really informative and has an aside from Jack Rackam about Wu Zetian, another entertaining history TH-camr.
I was a bit miffed about that series, not gonna lie.
@@viracocha6093 why where you miffed?
No religion is devoid of caste in India. Even Christianity and Islam in India have castes now. Infact many Muslim groupings have been created in past two hundered years just to accomodate castes in Islam. Another reason why Wahabis look down on Indian Muslims as not real Muslims.
The Himalayas, and Mount Everest, are not the largest mountains on the planet. Mauna Kea in Hawaii is the tallest mountain on the planet
What are you on
Technically, elevations are measured from their total height above mean high tide at sea level (MSL) for the entire earth. *In that case Mount Everest is Earth's highest mountain with 29,029 feet above mean sea level. Mauna Kea is recognized to be 13,803 feet above mean sea level.*
If you measure Mauna Kea from the floor of the ocean to the top then the total is around 10,000 meters or 33,000 feet. This would be called the *"the total vertical distance between Mauna Kea’s base and summit"* rather then *“elevation”* to show the difference.

Please react to more OSP videos
He made a sequel to this that you should watch
Ohoh India 🙏🏼😇
You should watch "How a corporation conquered a sub-continent" by alternate history hub
I Really think he should check out Rammsteins Deutschland! It is steeeped with history!
I would love to see you react to Blue's love affair with Venice.
we dont really learn about anceint history in depth, and what they do teach us is pretty forgettable since we learnt about ancient history in like 6th or 7th grade and info about each dynasty or era was only like a page or half long history as a subject starts to be more detailed from 9th grade but there's no mention of ancient history anywhere, the focus is more in recent history, even today i know more about the french revolution or indian nationalism than our ancient history
I watched the latest video about India. Algorithms and all that.
Do more about OSP India series

U r wrong abt the caste system in Hinduism. In modern times it is not strictly followed anymore in Indian society. India already had a president belonging to backward class ..
Still widely practiced in the rural areas
@@subhadeepbanerjee9191 not in all rural areas..
@Aman Lool r u not familiar with the reservation system in govt sector for backward classes?? It seems u want advantage in every field..thats not fair
@@subhadeepbanerjee9191 Define "Rural Areas" ?!

I just noticed all your Nintendo Games. I want to play Mario Bros. 1&3. Maybe some Turtles or Castlevania
POPE FIGHTS!!!
Even thought I'm infinitely happy to see you finally react to OSP, whomever suggested you the video should have suggested that you started with the first one in the series ''History Summarized: Ancient India''. You certainly didn't knew about it, Mr. Terry, and maybe who suggested didn't knew either, so I'm not here making criticism, just saying it would be interesting to see you react to the first video, since it covers a lot of things this one didn't, and can make some points feel loose and incomplete to you, but they covered it before. It's a amazing channel, and I look forward for you to react to other videos of them.
Great video, as always. One of the best reaction channels, probably the best, since you don't ''just react'' but add a lot in commentary.
Paris are great bro .. even Ratan Tata is paris..
Paris , Jain's and Jews are great
How about exploring historical IRELAND
Do more simple history reviews. Specifically the ss soldier who eventually became a green beret
"Islam believes that everyone is equal" hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
It is exclusive to their religion.
It does. But, like all religions, depending on the interpretation its incredibly hypocritical.
When a history professor knows more about your history than you do 🥴
My guy .... My guy
who started hinduism? was it the indus river valey civilization or the aryans ?
since they both been in india for so long i consider them both about as indian, so let's not get political here.
Aryans
Actually "Hinduism " this word is paryayvachi/similarly of "indian civilization " ... and civilization is not be started by the one or two clan's ... developing a civilization is a long long time periods process ... we indian belive our civilization is old very very old.. more then millions and billions year's .. during this periods of time this indian civilization intract with many many outher civilization like American civilization (maya), african civilization (asura),European civilization (ra), astraluan (malay) ,midil east civilization (yawan) & many more..and developed the best "way of life" The Sanatan Dharam" meining the "low of univers"... Actually Hinduism is "low for civilization" for "civilians of this South East land"..
it was the amalgamation of the indus valley's indigenous culture and that of the indo aryan nomadic groups

Not a single Indian historian to comment
You don't have any knowledge about Hinduism.
He's right though. You don't have any knowledge about history and only know what people told you without any academic backing.
Please react to “The problems with Fury” by potential history!!
A very simplistic and often wrong interpretation of our history.
Nah
