I've looking for an in depth video on hive cities. Surprisingly there really aren't many. There is one that I know of that's only about 40 minutes long and isn't in too much depth.
It is good that he prefaced that part of environmental conditions with the need to suspend disbelief. But it is hard to suspend disbelief, believe me. When one has mastered controlled nuclear fusion power and one had antimatter power, one can have an Earth sized planet with a trillion people with a lower carbon footprint than presently exists on Earth. Nuclear fusion power is 12 million times more efficient than natural gas and antimatter is 200 times more efficient than nuclear fusion power. Nuclear fusion power comes from hydrogen which can be obtained via electrolysis of water. Hydrogen is the most abundant element in existence. Nuclear fusion and antimatter power means no greenhouse gas and very few pollutant emissions from such power stations, and it also means no secondary emissions from land vehicles because electric vehicles and hydrogen vehicles will be powered from non fossil fuel sources. With regards to wastes being produced by factories, all wastes can be sequestered, dissociated, recombined, and reused, instead of just spewed into the atmophere or spilled into the environment. Ashen wastes can be utilized to produce graphene, Bucky balls, and carbon nanotubes. What cannot be reused or if it not wanted to be reused can be launched into space and then dumped into the nearest star. The Imperium is not lacking in technologies for space launch and spaceflight and has lots and lots and lots and lots of spacecraft. The explanation that the rulers and power elites of the worlds do not care a hoot about their planets and environments does not cut it either. Given that they possess the technology to make environment much much more pleasant than what prevails in the narrative, even if they mistreat the people that they govern, they would actually like to be able to readily visit pleasant places and surroundings regularly and cheaply. On Hive Worlds those would be placed not occupied by Hive Cities, and even Hive Worlds mostly have far more space not occupied by Hive Cities or any settlements at all than they do. With the technologies at their disposal, they'd be able to ensure that such spaces are ecologically well kept, being mostly verdant and having streams, lakes, and other bodies of water with little pollution. The toxic ecological wasteland narrative of Hive Worlds is ridiculous given the very advanced technological capability of the Imperium and also the logical desire of rulers and elites to be able to easily access and have much in pleasant surroundings on their worlds, even if they do not care much for those that they govern ...

@@rishidronadula7260 They were. Pre Eye of Terror the warp was a fairly calm place, so warp travel was far more common and far more regular. No Navigators were needed.
In Armageddon, a family of four living in a 200sq feet apartment is appalling, meanwhile in Hong Kong, families of four living in 150sq feet is the norm.
it actually started mercantilism (which in turn created the middle class) So I would beg to differ. Plus, It made people more educated/skilled, despite the early industrial revolution being rough, it got better once the British govt churned out workers rights. (of which now all the world (nearly)now use.) This is why I laugh when people go "but if we leave the EU we have no WoRkeRz RiGhtZ"... when we created it LOL
The rich and beautiful irony of someone believing the British government "churned out human rights" while watching a video that starts with a quote from Dickens, a man who was instrumental in highlighting the plight of British industrial workers, particularly children, precisely because the British government weren't doing anything about it and had to be forced into action by popular protest. Lol.
40k Hive cities. In the future you'll see the sign back on holy terra outside a town that somehow survived from our time..."Welcome to Flint Michigan where atleast we're not a hive".
In M41, the entire state of Michigan had its lake destroyed millennia ago, and now it's just one huge crumbling, former manufactorum after all the menial jobs were outsourced to Segmentum Obscuris
Yeah. There’s brutal, then there’s ‘starved several million people to death while exporting grain because my plans are perfect, no-one’s actually going to care’ brutal. Still, the Man of Steel was a valuable tool in the greatest bitch-slap of human history.
@@cilliancallaghan9788 Off the top of my head, I can't really see Stalin deciding to make himself younger by grinding up babies into rejuvinant fluid if he had the ability to. Those babies would have more value to him as future workers. Hitler, on the other hand, did have people manufacturing soap with corpses, including babies, that's probably where 40k got the idea from. The Imperium mixes and matches so that the most horrific things in human history all are happening at once all the time for thousands of years. I think they'd win any brutality contest by sheer virtue of there being some low the Imperium is fine with that any specific person or nation in reality would go to war over.
I'd say even predictions in the trillions are still pretty low considering hive cities can be continent sizes with a population density that makes Manhattan Island look like the Australian outback. 5-6 such cities surrounded by tower farms that compress thousands of acres of arable land into just a few meters of ground. Those and other similar implied technologies in the imperium make mind breakingly huge populations not only viable but inevitable.
At least on Necromunda, the hive city isn't as huge as a continent. They have a lot of surface because they pile on high, not because they spread out. Between the hives of Necromunda is the dust wastes where millennia of industrial pollution has choked out almost everything. Only trains between the hives and a villages surviving on scraps and salvage are out there.
I tryed listening to audiobooks from a free audible access... i couldnt really stand the animated voice of the narrator, it was just too tryhard. This is perfect for me..
And millions of them burn every day. Imagine the trillions of story that could all be set within a hive, only for an unstoppable horde of xenos or Chaos to sweep over and bring every subplot to a bloody, meaningless end. This, is life in 40k.
Yeah, i thought that i could catch up to speed during the quarantine (i hadn't delved much into 40k lore before) but now i realize that you could base a whole academic department from bachelors to doctors degrees on 40k lore.
For a moment I thought the Luetin Necropolis returned :( Im really looking forward to the next episodes of it. Alas im sure this will be a real cool video too ;)
There are hydroponics in use in 40k, But that involves technology, tech priests, oil, incense and chanting. U can easily just stand land and lights in a tower and throw unlimited manpower at it.
The whole idea of the scrips being the main way hive denizens are paid reminds me a lot of the extremely controlled currencies of the former Eastern Bloc. Essentially, the governments there strictly controlled access to foreign currency, paid their people in the local currency which was only usable of course in their country and worthless abroad, and because the state controlled so much of the economy, prices for goods and services were tightly controlled. If the economies in this type of hive cities used a similar system for their currency, I suspect there’d be a robust black market, both in goods stolen from production (stealing from one’s job in the Communist world was omnipresent) and in more readily exchangeable currency.
I would play the heck out of that. Aside from the awesome physical building mechanics, imagine all the cool political stuff you could do, like having your Arbites root out genestealer cults or trying to satisfy the inquisition so you don't get half your population executed.
In the grim dark tubes of the interwebway, some youtubers release vids in 10 min installations for revenue. Luetin09 just goes full Angron and bashes your skull with condensing all vlumes into one upload.
Your rendition of Dicken's is fanastic and I was sure it was a 40k quote from somewhere, but no it's our own history. It was excellent subvervsion and really humanizes 40k, which is also something you are amazing at. As someone who has listened to you for hours please never stop, you have a beautiful mind
Actually a lot of the economic problems with distance for the Imperium are actually totally solvable via means that are utilized today. Farmers essentially sell their crops months ahead of time, with prices indicated by tradable futures indices.
This is why I generally don’t like fantasy anymore. Authors generally don’t craft realistic worlds. Everyday life, trade and governance are missing so many basic details. Being able to poke holes in a world simply by asking the question, “How does this work?” completely breaks my immersion.
Your description of currency that was effectively only spendable within the workers' local area was close to a system still present in industrial factory towns in the UK in the 20th century - where towns had 1 major employer who controlled all of the shops and was the landlord.
Hive Cities are my favorite part of the 40k universe. Their scale is just too massive to comprehend but the number of human stories is almost limitless.
The edifice is all that remains of humanity's era of progress and even that has been defaced. More than a grim description of how humans live their lives, more than whatever remains of worlds and giant mechs, this really hit home the sheer tragedy of the fall of humanity in this setting.
Exploring an underhive in search of STC's on an inexplicably devoid of life and unknown imperial planet (maybe among the Ghoul Stars somehow) sounds like a hell of a premise for a video game. Or part of a video game. Plus points if your'e part of some sort of rogue extremely clandestine faction that works with xenos. Maybe associated with protecting or finding the Starchild to replace the emperor and beat back chaos.
Personally I've never played 40K but I love your lore videos. They must take an age to create so thank you for creating such high quality stuff: it's better than most history docs I've been watching lately. Anyways, thanks for the great content :)
It would be such a great story if the imperium came across a lost human colony that’s still in “the golden age” and be space fairing and everything. One golden age fleet could probably take on the entirety of the imperium
I'd like to point out that the Imperial Economy is almost certainly based on the economy of the Roman Empire post Diocletian reforms. After the crisis of the third Century (a horrifying time period which could be considered equally horrible to the romans as the Horus Heresy was to the Imperium). The end of the Crisis is more or less marked by the Reign of Diocletian. During the Crisis, the Roman monetary system completley collapsed and experienced hyperinflation, so most places across the empire were bartering in their own local economies. Once Diocletian re asserted Roman control of provinces, he needed a way to collect taxes, but nobody really used the Roman coinage anymore. So Diocletian devised an elaborate "Tax" system, where every province in the roman empire could pay in any good or service they had, but how much those services were worth was dictated by Diocletian's imperial order. For example, swords might be worth "10 Units of Tax" and horses might be worth "50 Units of Tax". Alternativley, if a place wanted to ship goods for the roman empire, perhaps thats worth "0.5 units of tax per mile travelled". EVERY conceivable thing in the empire which a province might want to pay taxes with was accounted for. And the prices carefully monitored to prevent getting too much of a thing they didn't need that much. It honestly amazes me such a complex system actually worked.
thank god, a warhammer youtuber that doesn’t populate his videos with miserably unfunny edgy jokes and has good editing/information conveyed effectively. i can finally dip into the surface of 40k woohoo yippee
Ikr? I’ve seen so many warhammer lore channels that are just plain cringe and unfunny with their edgy attempts at humor. It takes away from the compelling topics at hand.
I like the idea of some ancient Imperial clerk mis-filing a dataslate about some planet, and- thousands of years later, when it is discovered- he is posthumously demoted.
For me it's because I realized EVERYTHING I loved as a kid was based on Warhammer in some way/shape/form. Halo, Gears of War, Warcraft, Starcraft, etc.
Luetin, when you discussed the currency for the commoners only being usable for within a company/corporation/guild, how would tithing to your local Ecclesiarchical cathedral work?
You could tithe all sorts of stuff. The tithe could be collected from the mercantile organisations themselves if that's where the concentration of taxable wealth is.

Been listening to all your 40k Lore videos from Old to New as I play games. Its been so much fun hearing your voice and learning about the Universe. Thanks man!
There is a whole video to be had on the algae farms that almost feed the hive cities and their denizens. I'm trained in Human ecology so that fascinates me. In theory we could do it today but a diet of algae paste, algae noodles, algae ferments would get to you eventually. Throw in some duck weed, red algae = Agar, a dwarf rush could be used for starch and you have a pond based diet. Given the genetic engineering talents of the golden age there is a good chance that what ever is growing in the ponds is now both a perfect food plant and unrecognizable to any ancient botanical AI.

What probably happens with economy is that hiveworlders get paid the local currency, and that local currency is just sort of accepted in their area, and if they ever buy anything from the merchant district the merchant probably has a method of converting that currency to thrones, perhaps by trading with the planetary governor.
here i was thinking i had nothing to do tonight. i wish i could up vote for every 30mins of video i like to think that in some corner of the galaxy in a long ago lost hive city is a single hard drive with every single video of belle delphine on it just waiting for guliman to find
Has a major hive world-with lots of big hives,so like a trillion-ish people- ever fallen to the tyranid? What feast that would be for them! Their fleet would probably double its biomass in the one planet!
I would have thought the heat sink should be there to remove heat from the city not produce it. Given its activities and population density the heat generated would be enough to melt the whole structure if not removed. Heat is a waste product not a power source at this level of technology.
I really enjoyed this deep dive into hive cities. Thank you for making the video. Its an interesting prospect indeed to think that buried somewhere there is a dormant, or maybe not so dormant, STC.
I don't know why , but I keep listening to this audio about hive cities . Really wish you would make that six hour highly detailed recording. I just find it so fascinating.
I believe apples that cost gold coins are only found in places suffering from adventure-linked inflation. All that hoarding, by dwarves and dragons, then stolen by murder hobbyists to be introduced to local economies via its armourers and taverns, tends to devalue gold in direct proportion to the enthusiasm of the dungeon delving that goes on.
I'm less than 6 month into Warhammer 40k Universe but read and watch as much as I can, ever more passionate about that universum. That is one of the most detailed and best narrated story about WH 40k. My greatefulness and honor to the author...
One view of hive cities, perhaps, is that they constitute /failed/ archologies: they may have begun as self-sustaining, but have long ago collapsed due to population pressures and exhaustion of ecological resources.
Something you never covered- both here and in any other video i've seen- is what about the children? You mentioned 'families' so do workers live in their own 'dwellings' rather than workhouses? If so who looks after the kids while they work all day? At what age do children have to start working? Do they get a basic education of any sort? Since Hives have such huge populations it stands to reason their must be huge numbers of kids too right? Even if lots of humans are grown in tanks really quickly and pop out as adults or something, you couldnt stop huge numbers of naturally born kids happening too unless everyone is sterelised.
I assume it would be something like the middle ages , there would be a basic elementary level education that you could send your children to if you have the money , once you reaching teenage years most of them would follow in their parents footsteps and take up a similar job .. Those of the middle class or nobility may send their children into administrative centres and take up better earning jobs

Last times when blizzard fired their employees they gave them some kind of " battle.net" currency. Like in a hive city :3 ! They still gather inspiration from Warhammer40k, from Warcraft 1 to this haha
It's kind of a shame that an Imperial Bank doesn't exist in 40k. That would make for some cool characters and other wheelings and dealings. When 40k was created though, I don't think they even thought beyond "total utter never-ending war" so now we get these wierd voids in the lore that GW slowly are like "oh yeah, let's make that".
It would be so cool to have like a show or like a series following one person in 1 hive or something like living in the undercity. Its a shame that it would never happen and if it did they wouldn't be able to do it justice with a low budget.

it actually started mercantilism (which in turn created the middle class)
So I would beg to differ. Plus, It made people more educated/skilled, despite the early industrial revolution being rough, it got better once the British govt churned out workers rights. (of which now all the world (nearly)now use.)

Yeah. There’s brutal, then there’s ‘starved several million people to death while exporting grain because my plans are perfect, no-one’s actually going to care’ brutal. Still, the Man of Steel was a valuable tool in the greatest bitch-slap of human history.

@@cilliancallaghan9788 Off the top of my head, I can't really see Stalin deciding to make himself younger by grinding up babies into rejuvinant fluid if he had the ability to. Those babies would have more value to him as future workers. Hitler, on the other hand, did have people manufacturing soap with corpses, including babies, that's probably where 40k got the idea from.
The Imperium mixes and matches so that the most horrific things in human history all are happening at once all the time for thousands of years. I think they'd win any brutality contest by sheer virtue of there being some low the Imperium is fine with that any specific person or nation in reality would go to war over.

I'd say even predictions in the trillions are still pretty low considering hive cities can be continent sizes with a population density that makes Manhattan Island look like the Australian outback.
5-6 such cities surrounded by tower farms that compress thousands of acres of arable land into just a few meters of ground. Those and other similar implied technologies in the imperium make mind breakingly huge populations not only viable but inevitable.
At least on Necromunda, the hive city isn't as huge as a continent. They have a lot of surface because they pile on high, not because they spread out.
Between the hives of Necromunda is the dust wastes where millennia of industrial pollution has choked out almost everything. Only trains between the hives and a villages surviving on scraps and salvage are out there.

Dear god, a single hive is its own universe of lore and stories.
And millions of them burn every day. Imagine the trillions of story that could all be set within a hive, only for an unstoppable horde of xenos or Chaos to sweep over and bring every subplot to a bloody, meaningless end. This, is life in 40k.
Yeah, i thought that i could catch up to speed during the quarantine (i hadn't delved much into 40k lore before) but now i realize that you could base a whole academic department from bachelors to doctors degrees on 40k lore.
Exactly. And that's why THIS is the part of the 40k universe that interestd me the most, much more so than the galactic wars.
You should read the Kal Jerico trilogy.
That's the idea, you don't buy into the story of the 41st millenium you buy into a framework to author your own stories.

The concept of agriculture worlds always escaped me. When a thing like hydroponics exists, any planet with water could be an ag world.
There are hydroponics in use in 40k, But that involves technology, tech priests, oil, incense and chanting. U can easily just stand land and lights in a tower and throw unlimited manpower at it.
@@timsearle5837 well said
The whole idea of the scrips being the main way hive denizens are paid reminds me a lot of the extremely controlled currencies of the former Eastern Bloc. Essentially, the governments there strictly controlled access to foreign currency, paid their people in the local currency which was only usable of course in their country and worthless abroad, and because the state controlled so much of the economy, prices for goods and services were tightly controlled.
If the economies in this type of hive cities used a similar system for their currency, I suspect there’d be a robust black market, both in goods stolen from production (stealing from one’s job in the Communist world was omnipresent) and in more readily exchangeable currency.
Someone should make a Hive City city builder sim. 😅
A 40K building simulator sounds... Kinda cool actually
Nice idea. And the endgame is setting up a nice industry and pop growth to support PDF garrisons and Guardsmen regiments.
I would play the heck out of that. Aside from the awesome physical building mechanics, imagine all the cool political stuff you could do, like having your Arbites root out genestealer cults or trying to satisfy the inquisition so you don't get half your population executed.

40K Lore often feels like a text book on how to die in the most horrible ways possible.

LUTEIN: No. You're not.
Actually a lot of the economic problems with distance for the Imperium are actually totally solvable via means that are utilized today. Farmers essentially sell their crops months ahead of time, with prices indicated by tradable futures indices.
This is why I generally don’t like fantasy anymore. Authors generally don’t craft realistic worlds. Everyday life, trade and governance are missing so many basic details. Being able to poke holes in a world simply by asking the question, “How does this work?” completely breaks my immersion.
Your description of currency that was effectively only spendable within the workers' local area was close to a system still present in industrial factory towns in the UK in the 20th century - where towns had 1 major employer who controlled all of the shops and was the landlord.

Hive Cities are my favorite part of the 40k universe. Their scale is just too massive to comprehend but the number of human stories is almost limitless.
The edifice is all that remains of humanity's era of progress and even that has been defaced. More than a grim description of how humans live their lives, more than whatever remains of worlds and giant mechs, this really hit home the sheer tragedy of the fall of humanity in this setting.
@IntrepidTit an indication of what can come to be. Although not as...extreme.
@IntrepidTit yeah, I suppose.
Exploring an underhive in search of STC's on an inexplicably devoid of life and unknown imperial planet (maybe among the Ghoul Stars somehow) sounds like a hell of a premise for a video game. Or part of a video game.
Plus points if your'e part of some sort of rogue extremely clandestine faction that works with xenos. Maybe associated with protecting or finding the Starchild to replace the emperor and beat back chaos.
Personally I've never played 40K but I love your lore videos. They must take an age to create so thank you for creating such high quality stuff: it's better than most history docs I've been watching lately. Anyways, thanks for the great content :)
It would be such a great story if the imperium came across a lost human colony that’s still in “the golden age” and be space fairing and everything. One golden age fleet could probably take on the entirety of the imperium
damn for a second there i was thinking "wow this 40k writer he's quoting is actually pretty talented"
I'd like to point out that the Imperial Economy is almost certainly based on the economy of the Roman Empire post Diocletian reforms. After the crisis of the third Century (a horrifying time period which could be considered equally horrible to the romans as the Horus Heresy was to the Imperium). The end of the Crisis is more or less marked by the Reign of Diocletian.
During the Crisis, the Roman monetary system completley collapsed and experienced hyperinflation, so most places across the empire were bartering in their own local economies. Once Diocletian re asserted Roman control of provinces, he needed a way to collect taxes, but nobody really used the Roman coinage anymore.
So Diocletian devised an elaborate "Tax" system, where every province in the roman empire could pay in any good or service they had, but how much those services were worth was dictated by Diocletian's imperial order. For example, swords might be worth "10 Units of Tax" and horses might be worth "50 Units of Tax". Alternativley, if a place wanted to ship goods for the roman empire, perhaps thats worth "0.5 units of tax per mile travelled".
EVERY conceivable thing in the empire which a province might want to pay taxes with was accounted for. And the prices carefully monitored to prevent getting too much of a thing they didn't need that much. It honestly amazes me such a complex system actually worked.

For me it's because I realized EVERYTHING I loved as a kid was based on Warhammer in some way/shape/form. Halo, Gears of War, Warcraft, Starcraft, etc.
Luetin, when you discussed the currency for the commoners only being usable for within a company/corporation/guild, how would tithing to your local Ecclesiarchical cathedral work?
You could tithe all sorts of stuff. The tithe could be collected from the mercantile organisations themselves if that's where the concentration of taxable wealth is.

There is a whole video to be had on the algae farms that almost feed the hive cities and their denizens. I'm trained in Human ecology so that fascinates me. In theory we could do it today but a diet of algae paste, algae noodles, algae ferments would get to you eventually. Throw in some duck weed, red algae = Agar, a dwarf rush could be used for starch and you have a pond based diet.
Given the genetic engineering talents of the golden age there is a good chance that what ever is growing in the ponds is now both a perfect food plant and unrecognizable to any ancient botanical AI.
I don't think a diet of algae alone is enough to satisfy human nutritional needs ..
@@jchea1764 Actually it does and there are some fascinating recipes. I have a few books on the subject. Non fiction. Its not needed but possible.

What probably happens with economy is that hiveworlders get paid the local currency, and that local currency is just sort of accepted in their area, and if they ever buy anything from the merchant district the merchant probably has a method of converting that currency to thrones, perhaps by trading with the planetary governor.

I would have thought the heat sink should be there to remove heat from the city not produce it. Given its activities and population density the heat generated would be enough to melt the whole structure if not removed. Heat is a waste product not a power source at this level of technology.
I really enjoyed this deep dive into hive cities. Thank you for making the video. Its an interesting prospect indeed to think that buried somewhere there is a dormant, or maybe not so dormant, STC.
An attempted expedition into "the sump" would make for a good book series or a game to actually explore the lost remnants of the golden/dark age.

I believe apples that cost gold coins are only found in places suffering from adventure-linked inflation. All that hoarding, by dwarves and dragons, then stolen by murder hobbyists to be introduced to local economies via its armourers and taverns, tends to devalue gold in direct proportion to the enthusiasm of the dungeon delving that goes on.

I'm less than 6 month into Warhammer 40k Universe but read and watch as much as I can, ever more passionate about that universum. That is one of the most detailed and best narrated story about WH 40k. My greatefulness and honor to the author...
One view of hive cities, perhaps, is that they constitute /failed/ archologies: they may have begun as self-sustaining, but have long ago collapsed due to population pressures and exhaustion of ecological resources.
Something you never covered- both here and in any other video i've seen- is what about the children?
You mentioned 'families' so do workers live in their own 'dwellings' rather than workhouses? If so who looks after the kids while they work all day? At what age do children have to start working? Do they get a basic education of any sort? Since Hives have such huge populations it stands to reason their must be huge numbers of kids too right?
Even if lots of humans are grown in tanks really quickly and pop out as adults or something, you couldnt stop huge numbers of naturally born kids happening too unless everyone is sterelised.
I assume it would be something like the middle ages , there would be a basic elementary level education that you could send your children to if you have the money , once you reaching teenage years most of them would follow in their parents footsteps and take up a similar job ..
Those of the middle class or nobility may send their children into administrative centres and take up better earning jobs

It's kind of a shame that an Imperial Bank doesn't exist in 40k. That would make for some cool characters and other wheelings and dealings.
When 40k was created though, I don't think they even thought beyond "total utter never-ending war" so now we get these wierd voids in the lore that GW slowly are like "oh yeah, let's make that".
It would be so cool to have like a show or like a series following one person in 1 hive or something like living in the undercity. Its a shame that it would never happen and if it did they wouldn't be able to do it justice with a low budget.
