      @@tasiatasia1435 Slavic don't really belong to Central Asia, especially the Poles and Czechs,

      the East European bloc can be divided in to 4 category:
      Baltic an West Slavic,
      Balkan and South Slavic,
      Greece,
      East Slavic/Russland,
      so we have no place to put Armenia and Georgia inside,
      Russia, like Macedon empire is just one of the outside empires which have occupied and influenced Central Asia, even Tang Chinese and Arabian empirr have occupied Central Asian,
      if you find the word Central Asia doesn't fit,
      I can change by calling the Cacuassian-Turkic-Iranic culture-geographical sphere, ou Eurasian sphere,
      so all Indo-Europeans which are not Europeans, neither Indians, can be put in this category,
      for example, Hitties, Scythians, Persans,Sodigans,

      @@Emilechen lol russians and east slavs have more common with iranic and central asian people, than caucasians. Armenian,Georgian, ancient Albanian civilizations have no connection to either of that world. They were built on Greek-Roman-Byzantine mostly and partly middle eastern influence. - religion, alphabets, kingdoms and statehood. Caucasians started becoming officialy christians in 4th century, and you can find ancient churches, greek and roman writings there along with main alphabets. But if we go north to eastern europe - Ukraine and Russia territory, in the oldest time iranic people were living at their place. Slavs stayed pagans untill 10th century, and slavic paganism and iranic paganism has lots of stuff in common. In one of the old georgian sources, russians are called barbarians as well as "scythes" because they were both pagans and shared stuff/could be same people. So some people even considered russians and iranic people "scythians" to be the same. and after this iranic people, turkic and mongol people came and started living on that territory they even created first idea of russian state. East slavs have long history of connection to iranic, turkic, mongol, siberian civilizations and people, and if any land should belong to central asian and iranic or turkic civilization it's them. Whereas native caucasians have almost nothing in common with either turkic or Iranic people. They have no historical ties with them. They didn't share religion, history, territory or language. Which can't be said about East slavs. Turkic-Iranic-East Slav-mongol civilization sounds way better. Caucasians either have their own group, or they belong to -greko-roman or less likely middle eastern world.

    Man, this is excellent! This is probably (one of) the best videos you've ever made so far! I always wanted to see how hunter humans finally shifted to pastoralist, then farming, and finally civilised lifestyles! (In my opinion, we were examining plants and bovines for hundreds or thousands of years before 8000 BCE and were doing selective breeding for them--which lead to their domestications. Also, life as hunters probably made us use "less" of our brains in technology and thinking so this change probably initiated the continuous rapid advancement of humanity in these last 10,000 years.)

    This is a well-done video, but I would include Gaul and the Pueblo civilization in North America, as well as the various city-states of southern Nigeria and Benin, which had advanced iron working as well as some of the most technically complex bronze working techniques known anywhere before the 20th century (Igbo-Ukwu, Benin City, Nri, Ile-Ife, Oyo, Abomey/Dahomey, etc.), unless the main determining factor is writing rather than city building, which to me seems surprising. In any case, it's not entirely clear that the whole area of the Andean civilization presented in the video actually had a writing system before 600 CE (the WarI). Even then, what you have in the Andean civilization are the quipu, which have never been deciphered in any of their forms, so it's unclear exactly what is written on them beyond numeric values, or even what the exact meaning of the numeric values is (some believe the numeric values are actually representing stories or reports in some cases, using the numeric patterns as a kind of language, while others think the quipu are mostly just accounting information and similar, with a few place-names and similar "titles" also encoded through numbers, as I understand the current state of the ongoing controversy). At the very least, if the city-building cultures in Gaul, Oasisamerica, southern Nigeria and Benin, are not "civilizations" they certainly are something more than nomads/pastoralists or "farmers." Maybe there should be an additional category called "non-literate, technologically advanced heavily specialized and urbanized city-builders"?

      @@CostasMelas Fair enough. If written language is mandatory to be considered an center of civilization, then I suppose so. Although I do not agree, and would argue that a truly independently developed civilization only requires clear evidence of agriculture, division of labor, urbanization, hierarchy, industry, trade, artistic expression, etc; I can still respect the decision to include writing systems. If not for the sake of simplicity alone, because I'm sure that would quite a few world regions not only in Subsaharan African. But who am I to challenge the status quo concerning early centers of civilization and who may or may not apply? Even in the case that a broad "Subsaharan civilizations" is used, then wouldn't the same requirement for written language imply there were none until contact with Islamic or European civilizations; or natively developed scripts such as Ajami, Raampa, Vai, Kunbaw, Maradi, Nsibidi, Somali, etc? Then all of the Subsaharan African civilizations that experienced Islamization by the 8th century onwards, or Christianization by the 15th century onwards, would apply, right? I don't know. Either way, I appreciate your hard work very much.
      All in all, as a big African history enthusiast, it would be really cool if the same detail and depth was given with respect to the continent. At the very least, represent the advent of farming in West Africa by the late 3rd to early 1st millenium BCE. Likewise for farming in both Central Africa and Subequitorial Africa with Bantu speaking migrations by the early 1st millenium BCE to mid 1st millenium CE. After that, pastoralists only persisted in the Subsaharan African regions of the Sahel, Sudan, Horn, Great Lakes, Rift Valley, Southeast Africa; and between Nambia-South Africa-Botswana, where Khoikhoi pastoralists still cohabitate with San hunter-gatherers.

Quite the opposite actually, many dislike Russia, especially nowadays. The West Slavs are in every way Western. Nothing like Russia! Ukrainians and Belarusians are mediators between West Slavs and Russians. Russians are more Eurasian, big buddies with Asians, such as Kazakhs and other Turkic peoples, Mongolians, Chinese etc..

      No. That’s what I was confused for... He covered half of Turkey (other color is Perso Arabic) with it despite it not being in Central Asia. I think he should have labeled it Turkic also because Siberia has Turkic (Yakut) speakers as well (that's why the same color covers half of Siberia initially, then one third of it). That said, in his Turkic languages history video, he showed himself that these originated in Mongolia, often excluded from Central Asia. So....!

      but this kind of Turanist theory, Finland and Japan could also be inculded into the same category,
      it completely ignores the geographical limilits,
      many Turkic people in Anatolia, Caucasuss, Central Asia have heavily mxied with local Indo-european populatio, especially Iranic people,

      Greeks called themselves romans during medieval period, so the term " greco-roman" is correct thereafter. During classical period it was diveded into latin and hellenistic civilizations, which were united due to Roman empire and Christianity.

    Not sure about this one. Pastoralism wasn't compatible with African rainforests, and it's far more likely that Sub-Saharan Africans were hunter gatherers and farmers before their civilizations begun to form. You also erased the Sahelian civilizations of West and Central Africa by classifying them as Perso-Arabic while providing inaccurate times for the beginning of West African civilation. Not a very accurate representation of African history.
