- Without the Roman Empire, the world wouldn't be as we know it. Even it's fall influenced the life of modern-day Europe. In this video, we will explore how European countries formed their borders, who really were the Barbarians and how their confrontation with the Romans helped in the creation of Europe as we know it today.

Information here is highly incorrect. The dates are all mixed up too
clearly, it gives the impression that the cimbri invaded a Roman Empire of 117 AD, under Trajan
not exactly guy most of it is highly reliable
@@amelialavilla6619 Nope. So. much is wrong.
@@saguntum-iberian-greekkons7014, it clearly shows B.C.
I agree
The ancestors of the Spanish did not come from Sweden. People who contributed a tiny bit to the ancestry of the Spanish came from Sweden. There is a vast difference.

From Font of All Knowledge: barbarian, word derived from the Greek bárbaros, used among the early Greeks to describe all foreigners, including the Romans. The word is probably onomatopoeic in origin, the “bar bar” sound representing the perception by Greeks of languages other than their own. Either ChatGPT or idiot.
@@miyojewoltsnasonth2159 the fact that he said in the video that the Spanish people come from Sweden and when he said Sweden he showed a Island in the Sea, that's why.
@@minetv4001 0:14 The island is Gotland, right?
So the Goths, i.e. the Visigoths?
If so, the Visigoths just _ruled_ over the Spaniards, right? Rather than interbreeding with each other, right? Which is what you need to be an "ancestor," isn't it?
This is far too oversimplified. The Goths the ancestors of the spanish? really so i guess they wiped out the entire native population of Iberia. Simplifying things is fine but this gives the wrong picture of actual history. This example works with every region and people mentioned here.
30000 goths invaded Spain. Simply
3/400.000 godos en una población hispanorromana de 5 millones aprox. Y fundaron la capital de su reino en Toledo.
They where NOT even 5% of the population !
also Spain didnt exist
Según los primeros análisis genéticos realizados en España, a finales de los años 90,el ADN de los españoles no ha sufrido cambios sustanciales en los últimos 4000 años. El Y DNA masculino procede de la estepa, Indoeuropeos R1b. El ADN femenino procede de los "agricultores de Anatolia". Todos los invasores posteriores han sido guerreros masculinos: romanos, godos y moros no han tenido influencia en el ADN mitocondrial, por eso somos una tipologia antigua y estable a pesar de las invasiones
Nicely made but some information too rough and some other even wrong. The worst wrong information was that the Goths had not been defeated by the Byzantines, which of course had been the case. When the Lombards came to Italy, they defeated the Byzantines, not the Goths. The Lombards had not at all been "invited" but moved away from the Avars.
Yeah, how he came to that conlusion, any people with good general knowledge on the high middle ages knows about that.
For him the Byzantine just kept giving lands to everybody
The byzantines were not called Byzantines until much later. They considered themselves the Roman Empire.
yes but they were basically greeks so its unfair and confusing to just call them romans
@@sperdouklikos Unfair and confusing no? lol they were the eastern roman empire what are you on about?
@@nubnubdubdehpolitically they were romans and ethnically they were greek.
They were called Byzantium before the Roman Empire@@nubnubdubdeh
The term is helpful in distinguishing different peoples
0:49 The romans called the outsiders barbarians? I don't think so. The term barbarian was WIDELY used by greeks to define anyone NOT speaking the (ancient) greek language a really long time before even the Roman Republic was formed, let alone the Roman Empire...
This.
Corect. Even ancient Greeks called Macedonians barbarians which means foreigners. (non Greeks)
Barbarian...the one who stutter...which means, dont understand what he says...dont speak greek/latin...is a outsider..."the other"...inferior, enemy...
Stilico moved the capitol not from Rome to Ravenna but from Milan to Ravenna as the western court had already moved away from Rome during the establishment of the tetrarchy in 286 and then was moved to Ravenna in 395
So indeed the Augustus of the West ruled from Mediolanum. But in 312 Constantine, after defeating one of the usurpers, briefly made Rome his capital. After that, he moved it to Constantinople.
@@History_Mapped_Out that may have been so, but Mediolanum had returned as the capital of the middle portion once Constantine had died, and the Empire was split amongst his three sons, and it was his son, Constans I that ruled from Milan, and then the whole of the west after Constantine II died.
I thought Greeks formed word barbarian and Romans adopted it
100% correct. βάρβαρος = βάρ βαρ ος (bar bar + os = masculine noun)
In that, as in a about everything, this is incredibly amateurish.
@@johannesvalterdivizzini1523 Huh?
As a history teacher, I can not accept a lot of the information in this video.
Correct
The video is maybe not perfect, but its simply interesting to see the wanderings of the nations and the changes so animated.
One thing disturbs me a little bit. At 00:17:33 the video says, the Magyars came and they called their new country "Hungary". Magyars called their country Magyarország and not Hungary. Only later, English speaking people gave Magyarország the name Hungary.
I would be more bothered by the pronunciation of Mag-ee-ar. Why can't educated people learn how to say these names correctly?
@@urbangorilla33 Colonizers don't care about that 🤫
then nobody cares@@ShamanKish
@@ShamanKish "Colonizer" is a loaded, even racist term which betrays bias. Why do you use it? What do you mean by it? Why do you use it here?
@@JohnDoe-fu6zt How about 'imperials'? You think that Greeks or Romans cared about 'barbaric' languages? They didn't. Did the 'colonial' powers bothered to learn languages of lands they conquered? No, they didn't. That manner still exist in the 'colonial' or 'imperial' West.
It all started when portal from Hyperborea was opened by druids of the night
exactly
Nice depiction but many historical errors. Roman Empire didn't fall officially in 476 AD. Western Roman Empire only fell. Roman empire finally fell in 1453. Also the Byzantines or better call them Eastern Romans had a tough time but eventually defeated the Ostrogoths and didn't invite the Lombards to defeat the Ostrogoths.
Yes, and in fact what modern scholar now refer to as the Byzantine Empire was still called Roman Empire by the inhabitants of that era. I mean, the people living in the so called Byzantine Empire considered themselves and called themselves Roman.
The Cimbri invaded with the Teutones 6 decades before Caeser annexed Gaul but you have it Gaul showing Roman Red on your incorrect map.
Yep, a cartographic mistake from our side as the video starts with the events of 109 BC whereas the map is showing the Roman Empire at its peak (116 AD). Thank you for spotting it!
History Mapped < Nobody checked for accuracy before publishing ‽
this is very pro-German centric
"the Huns then brutally executed the King of the Goths"
but the Goths didn't brutally execute Sarmatians? Just with hugs and kisses and in the name of love and equality, right?@@History_Mapped_Out
@@attilatasciko4817 welcome to soulless money grabbers humping AI taking over the internet. If you want to learn things, get books that are 100+ years old.
I want to know, how exactly did the countries form? I mean, exactly. There had to be an agreement at some point. What was that like. Did the heads of each state sit down for a lunch meeting and hash out the details? Did they drink wine and sleep with women during this negotiation? Or did the less powerful one just beg for some land to rule over?
The Saxons did not come from Normandy to England
It was shown northern from there.
Where are Tracians,Dacians Avars and many more?
The Thracians and Dacians had already been Latinized and Hellenized in the eastern part of the Roman Empire at that time. Following the invasions, it is highly likely that those who were Latinized in the northern part of the empire (Jireček Line) sought refuge in the Carpathian and Balkan highlands due to their pastoral knowledge, later being referred to as Vlachs. Regarding other populations, you are right, it's a bit general, but I imagine going into too much detail would have made the video very long.
It is a shame that by summarizing so many important groups of people are left out. I have missed the Celts. I know they were already established throughout Western Europe before the Roman Empire, but I would have liked to know more about them in this context.
@@carlomaionico5440😅
Hi, so the 7 Magyar clans who migrated along with turkic kavars into the lands of the Moravians started to call themselves Hungarians? I don’t think that the Magyars would use the English word Hungarian rather than their own name for themselves. History written in English always gets the names wrong every time, languages are just too hard for islanders!
We just have different names for the countries in english of their own etymologies.
Germany - Deutschland
We call it germany because the Romans called the german lands Germania
A lot of examples is just from name butchering and pronunciation preference. The Romans called Iberia Hispania which morphed into Spain in English. Other cultures (probably all) are guilty of this aswell? The French call “England” Angleterre.
Yep.
We call ourselves Magyarország now or Magyar Királyság (Kingdom) before. Also Osztrák-Magyar Monarchia. :)
What influence did the gepids have? They were living in Pannonia, and then subdued by Avars and Langobards.. Avars then subdued by Magyars.. Gepids originally came from Västergötland, like Timoteij...@@gagszi5850
One reason why Hungarians that came to Sweden had it easy to adapt in the 50ies, often looked people from Götaland... I asked my friend M.Toth, where do you come from? I meant, where in Sweden? He said, Hungary! I was totally astonished... PS There is also a finnish element in swedish population...DS
Even the English in this voiceover is pretty bad (esp. for pronunciation, grammar w incorrect verb tenses).
Saying that the Visigoths are the ancestors of the Spanish is a bit reductive
Hey, a bit reductive? No, just wrong, wrong. The Visigoths were just one of MANY groups of peoples that entered the Iberian peninsula.
The Visigoths were Romanized barbarians. They were the founders of Castile and their capitol was Toledo. They completely Latinized during the Arab conquest of Iberia. Moreover, Visigoths were quick to convert to Islam as they were followers of Arianism. Al-Andalusi, was the name Arabs gave to Spain, and Andalusia mean Land of the Vandals. It was the Asturians who were never conquered by the Arabs/Berbers, and they were Celts. It was they who led the longest war in history, the Reconquest of Spain, 800 years. You can also add the 300 years of the Conquest of the Americas.
@@padredemishijos12 "Romanized barbarians" is like saying Anglicized Haitians. Different religion (Arians), different dialect, different laws, different way of life. The estimate is likely 2-10% of the total population of Iberia were actually Germanic Visigoths, which is significantly lower than Franks in Gaul, 20-50%, or Anglo-Saxons in England, where the upper estimates are 80% before the Norman invasion.
@@mihair2854R1b (celts?) is dominant in Spain in similar porcentages to England, around the 70%. Rest is German or viking in GB and semitic in Spain, J1, J2 and E1b
And this doesn't even go into the probably even crazier chaos that was going on in central-eastern Europe.
Yes there are serious inaccuracies in this video, as people mention all over the comments, but that makes the topic so much more graspable than real deep history. I'd tell it in this manner to a beginner, for whom the video apparently is. It's better to create a vague idea of how Europe came to be than to not understand the process at all or giving up while trying. Great video.
This is not how the Roman empire fell and its funny how suddenly a mysterios large state called "Byzantine" empire appears in your video without any explanation and how it suddenly changed not just name but also its original color...
bias of course displaying the narrative that only the western roman empire was the roman empire
The Byzantine Empire was the continuation of the Roman Empire in Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages
@@josejunior6199Continuation of the Roman Empire under Hellenic identity completely disconnected from the western Roman Empire.
@@AKRITAS365fistly they didn't continued under "hellenic identity" but under Roman-and very firmly so,often emphasising that to westerners who tryed to doubt that and secondly under "completely disconnected from the W.Roman empire you mean what?Both were halves of the same Roman empire(Romans never officially devided their state into two as modernly often simplified),at the time Roman west fell both were very much the same in everything as for army,gouverment,culture and so on.One half had Latin as dominant languge while other always had Greek as dominant Lingua Franca and greek was recognised as 2nd imperial language already since early 1st century.
@@AKRITAS365 They were still romans
The Byzantine is actually Eastern Roman Empire. Byzatine is a Reneissance term. The roman enpire fell in 1453 with the conquest of Constantinople by the Otoman empire. They never called themselfs byzantine, but romans. Towards the end they spoke more greek than latin but still called themselfs roman not byzantine. Only the people from Bizantium(later named Constantinople) called themselfs bizantins, and only while the city was named that.
How did they all get around without cars, trucks and autobahns? Horses or on foot? Amazing!
@@angelito2144 Human beings were already established in Every corner of the Earth except Antarctica tens of thousands of years before horses or carts. On foot or by boat. By the stars and sun, by keen observation, reasoning and memory the same as any modern human. (Latest findings for the Americas: 26,000 yrs ago at least; everywhere else was orders of magnitude earlier than that).
Great video! Really informative and easy to understand. Enjoyed learning about Europe's origins. Thanks for sharing!
Only the spaniards of visigoth descent originated from Sweden, native Spaniards are celtiberian and basque heavily influenced by Greek and Roman culture.
Iberians are Italics who colonized the peninsula back in Roman times.
The local Celts were vanquished.
Saying the Europeans are the decedents of barbarians got so many barbaric reactions
No mention of the Avars?
The Bulgarian demolished them. Bulgarian tcar Krum defeated Avars.
@@koxagen yeah but that was later
The term "barbarian" was not coined by the Romans but from the Greeks who thought of anyone who did not speak Greek as a barbarian cause their language sounded to them as "bar bar bar"
Absolutely a perfect introduction to this important but mostly unknown period possibly due to its complexity. Great intro
rome basically became a patchwork of different barbariab kingdoms who in time became institutionalized hence "creating" europe on the frameworks of the romans
I always have a hard time understanding this topic, specially in the iberic peninsula where im from. Because we barely have germanic dna, how did it work? They just happen to fled the huns and other threats there and then settled with the locals? How was the percentage of germanic compared to them? How far in the roots are they in portuguese dna? in a dna test I get 20% france area, 66 iberia and 6 magrhebi (arab invasion or ancient migration?), but dont know if that refers to much older history migrations, celts or this
Hi, Spanish here. You must take into account that after the events described in this video, the Iberian peninsula was first invaded by Arabians and after that, during the Reconquista, many "empty lands" were populated not only by people from northern Spain but also by the Franks. "Franks" was the generic name given to people from today's France, Netherlands and West Germany. They were offered lands and many families, even whole communities, came here during the end of the Middle Ages.
We can observe this recent population movements in some details:
- the straight north-to-south lines that follow the languages in Spain: Galician language is related to Portuguese, Catalonian is related to Valencian (I don't mean to begin a discussion about whether they must be considered the same thing or not);
- modern genetics have proved that "north-to-south" movements, too;
- about the Franks heritage, I've always found funny that in Spain you can randomly find a lot of people that have northern Europe features. I don't mean only blue eyes or blonde hair, but the shape of the eyes or the shape of the face, that kind of details, specially in Extremadura and some parts of Andalucía. Some famous examples of this are Josefa Flores González (you know, Marisol), Soraya Arnelas, Cardaval brothers (you know, Los Morancos), and many more. I've always assumed they have that recent "Frank" heritage.
@@angelito2144 this makes a lot of sense! Its weird that people would conquer land, and then offer to other to populate xD I understand why, just funny. Basically they just took the opportunity after arabic clearance to make their own Christian kingdoms and most came from central europeu? Makes sense
Another spaniard here. The only true arabian have ever settled in Iberian peninsula was Abdelrraman I, the rest, in VIII th century, north-african berebers, in very few numbers and expeled less than a100 years later by the emirate of Córdoba, and after totally banished by the califate. There were no arabs in Spain. Islamization of Spain was promoted by the visigoth elites which automatically mixed with northafrican generals who took control of the peninsula (all the spanish islamic aristocracy were descendants of Abdelrraman I, who married not a muslim woman, but the grand daughter of the last Visigoth king, Witiza) and converted to Islam in order not to loose their political power and territorial dominance...We must not forget that the Visigoths had only been Roman Catholics for less than a century. Until then they were Arrian Christians, Arrianism being a Christianity that did not admit the Holy Trinity of God, which made it, therefore, very similar to the new Islamic faith. For the Visigoths it was a mere change of name, not a radical change of faith.. We are talking about moments in which Islam had just been born and had not finished being fully formed. The radical differentiation of Islam dates back much later, from the 10th, 11th and 12th centuries with the diverse succession of fundamentalist movements, Shiites, Sunnis, Fatimids, Almohads, Almoravids, etc...
You can see the Germanic influence in Spanish words of Germanic origin such as “hermano” (which btw has the same origin as the word “German”).
@@mikeg2306 not meaning to disrespect, but are you sure about that? a quick search showed me it comes from latin, as most of iberian languages do. It does come from frater germanus (apparently meaning literally full brother or brother of blood), which is similar to germania, but germania was a name given by the romans, not themselves
Many of these migrations were mainly just the ruling military class-men. The peasants generally remained, especially the females, and outnumbered the warrior classes which were constantly swapping leadership.
You failed to mention the Edgar Allan Poe Goths
The ancestors of the English weren't Danish or far from exclusively. All parts of the now UK were already populated and established for 1000s of years, then came the Romans and then they left, then the Angles, Saxons, and a handful of Jutes, THEN came the Danes and Norweigans with a centuries later follow up of francized Northmen. Now we just get endless boatloads of Africans and Asians like the rest of Europe.
interesting how the modern migrants could simply walk across (under) the english channel these days...
Amazing video however there are slight mistakes
For example the Magyars did not name their state Hungary but Magyarország
Basically everyone around them calls them Magyars except for the Germans which call them variations of Hungary and Hungarians which stuck around
I as a Croat call Hungarians as Mađari (or Magyars if you like), also every ex Yugoslav country calls Hungary as Mađarska :) btw I love my neighbors :)
Ottoman, Turkish, Turkey, Türkiye, Turcia
Germany, Deutschland, Germania, Nemti
Romania, Roumania, România, Románia
Italia, Italy
Grecia, Greece, Hellas, Hellenic Republic
Every country can use their name as they wish, but they cannot force a change of English or any other language of the name of the country, based on their fancy language.
Will be funny to see and force a name change across all languages to Németország instead of Deutschland (german language) or Germany (english) 🙂
In Polish:
Germany = Niemcy (simple translation, those who can't speak 😂 )
Hungary = Węgry (no idea why).
Italy = Włochy (no idea why)
Other countries names are similar to engilosh version. Example:
France = Francja
England = Anglia
Danemark = Dania
Portugal = Portugalia
Holland = Holandia
Etc
What's the source of the story? PRESENT THE SOURCE !!!!
There may be inaccuracies in this video, but it shows the chaos of the time very well. Imagine living in this dystopian world.
3:00 that wasn't the first time Germanics were settled in Roman lands. Caesar's conquests in Gaul ~60-50BC showed us this. There were many, many Germanic tribes living west of the Rhine, and there were many many more tribes who moved from east to west of the Rhine to join the newly emerging Empire (from the ashes of the Republic) post Gallic Wars and assimilate into the much more powerful and orderly Roman culture long before the Marcomannia.
the video is not just inaccurate and over simplified, it's oftentimes plainly wrong and often based on unproven theories or even nationalistic propaganda pushed as truth, while ignoring completely genetics, linguistical proof or even historical records that don't don't agree with the narrative that's being propagated.
also, total eradication of a population never happened, and there is no spot in Europe that remained empty of population in its entire history. most of these migrations were simply the moving of a militarized ruling class, that was often happy to levy taxes and retain influence while interfering very little with the local population that was oftentimes demilitarized and relied on the ruling class for protection.
of course, raids, plunder and pillage happened occasionally and also, when we really had massive migrations (like the Slavic ones), cultural merging and spread of language took place over extended periods of time.
It's incorrect not the Romans but the Greeks call all population non Greek or which not have Greek language culture or heritage as Barbarian
A bit of research would not harm you! it's INCORRECT!
The Angles came from modern day Germany as did the Saxons. The Jutes came from modern day Denmark
Angles came from Schleswig Holstein (nowadays southwest Denmark and Northwest Germany)
The words "angles, Saxons and Jutes" mean nothing. These words described confederations of tribes who themselves were a conglomerate of different group of people from diverse origin. Nobody knows where these people came from and their different journeys. It is just a recent written myth.
@@antoinemozart243 Genetic tests and historical linguistics tell a different story.
@@karlkarlos3545 Genetic tests are scam. They have been tested several times on monozygotic twins and have a different result. 😅😅 Language is just culture. When a different ethnic group meddled with another powerful one they immediately adopted the culture ( language, religion). These people were quite isolated and only encountered others by war, immi or emigration. Read historians.
@@antoinemozart243You are being reductive. While it is obviously unknown who led what group of settlers and invaders, it is not unknown what the general trend was and where those people came from
They were Germanic people from what is now Northern Germany and Western Denmark (though it wouldn’t have been either back then)
Spain didn't exist when the Visigoths went to the Iberian Peninsula, it was a region of The Roman empire called Hispania. Only many centuries later in 1490 with the unification of most catholic kingdoms in the Iberian Peninsula is when Spain started, using a name inspired by what the Romans called their province Hispania. With this being said, there's a common misconception I want to clear up.
Spain (a kingdom founded in around 1490) is not the same as Hispania (Province of the Roman Empire) in between both many different kingdoms and civilizations existed.
The graphics are very cool, and I like the concept, but... that's not quite what I was taught and learned from books.
Germanic and German should not be used interchangeable, it's two different things. And the migration and locations of the different tribes... there are more tribes and some things therefore rather amiss, shortcuts turning it inaccurate. And there are some rather important details, that might be able to change the viewpoint and the narrative:
Like Theoderic the Great being raised at the emperial court and an eastern-roman officer SENT by the emperor to get rid of Oduacer. Theoderic the Great might not have been aware he would be considered a barbarian, afterwards. He certainly primarily thought, as a magister militum he was a Roman officer, that perchance also was a member of the Amal-Clan, and could use his relationship to their royal line to lead the Goths as a sort of 'private army' into battle - to the purpose of his emperial fostering sister's husband.
AND you left out the major role christianity played in it. Along the limes the 'western roman state' was still run by bishops as a sort of theocracy. These bishops presiding over a staff of religious state administrators, that often were organized in religious monkish (and therefore non-self-procreating) orders, and always ready to mission their barbaric 'foreigh mercenaries' were still answerable to their pontifex-maximus (after all a former religious imperial office) in Rome.
So much stuff is wrong.
Yep Everything is oversimplified the border, the time, and the most important no a.c but b.c
@@igoradamjankowski7705 saying the spaniards come from sweden was legit hilarious
@@BlizzyBlake1185 No it wasnt hilarious... Its true. Ever heard the surnames Fernandez, Gonzalez, Rodrigo, Ramirez etc? Well... the ending -ez is a Goth Germanic ending meaning "Son of", and it was because the Visigoth ruled all of Iberia (Hispania) for 2 centuries, and after the Arab conquest, the Reconquista even existed as a will to "recreate" that kingdom. Also Pelagus was a Visigothic King that created the Kingdom of Asturias, the ancestor of modern Spain (And portugal in a way).
Also Spain had 5 million people, and Visigoths were 200 000 that's about 5% of the population. It means that today about 10 million spaniards out of 45 million have a distant Gothic ancestor. I myself look Norwegian (Im always mistaken as such) and I am Spaniard 100%. Guess what? My family origins date to a town where Visigoths heavily settled. Even the local Hermit was built by them.
@BlizzyBlake1185 so, you mean that visigoths didn't migrate from Scandinavia?
@Alejojojo6 they would be diluted into the hispano romano population. They maybe have the name but in no meaningful way do they maintain their "swedish heritage"
it is not just about the Angels (English) from Danmark, but also the German Saxons that were ruling in Briton
and this is very German centric
"they brutally executed the King of the Goths"
but the Goths didn't brutally execute Sarmatians? Just with hugs and kisses and in the name of love and equality, right?
Are you re-writing history or what?
This video is accurate! I'm Brazilian from Minas Gerais and my DNA showed a mutation of the CCR5 gene that is only common among Swedes (Suebi tribe). My Brazilian boyfriend also have the same mutation, we are descendent of the Suebi who make the modern Portuguese people you see today.
Greeks said "PAS MI ELLIN VARVAROS" not the Romans "historian" boy
Who were the Vandals? Were they responsible for the word, "vandalism?"
Yes, the vandals were specially known for their cruelty and power of destruction, that's how they gave name to the act of randomly destroying something. As a fun fact, this old power of destruction and the search of more room were core concepts of the n4z¡s. Basically they wanted to "reboot" the history of Europe to the time in which barbarians (e. g. the vandals) were not constrained by modern laws and religions and they could take anything by the force and exterminate whoever they didn't like. There were even attempts to reactivate the cult of the Germanic gods. This "reboot", as everybody knows, ended up with some 50 million deaths just in Europe. Crazy but true.
yes
Yes and the word thug comes from the Indian (continental) thugee both refer to lawless robbers
I echo what other comments have said, but I like the design, model and flow. Just change the music!
While there are some inaccuracies, its a good reminder that the idea that some particular people or another "stole" land from another, is nothing but splitting hairs over some particular era in history. Taking land has been the norm of history.
The Roman Empire did not fall till the 1453
The Capital of west Roman Empire After Rome was Milan and After Milan Ravenna .
Except the fact that Serbs (and most other "Yugoslavs") are only about 30% Slavic. The most dominant haplogroup present among them is L2A, meaning they are mostly Proto-Europeans dating back to Vinča and Starčevo cultures.
Don't read fake news. 80% of serbs are related to Iranians mostly mix of roma, sinti. only 9% of sorbs are yellowish from poland. native Europeans must be very white. serbian is similar to Sanskrit
Slavic people are part of the Proto Europeans, so I'm not sure what your point is.
PLEASE REDO THE VIDEO WITH ACCURATE INFO, THE FORMAT IS SO GOOD AND EASY TO UNDERSTAND ❤
The video is obviously great and well-edited, and it shows how European nations formed, but why not clarify Byzantium was just the Roman Empire and why suggest the whole Roman Empire fell in 476?
Byzantium was not the Roman Empire. It was rather a succesor Roman state that spoke greek.
a successor state is a different state, the eastern roman empire was the same state with the same linage of emperors that lost the western parts of its empire@@Alejojojo6
In 476, the army and administration still spoke Latin. Every neighbouring state saw it as such and referred to it as the Roman Empire. When the Ostrogoths conquered Italy, they declared themselves Roman vassals as a result. The name Byzantium was never used by anyone until after it fell one thousand years later, and it only makes sense anyway after the Muslim conquest when the Roman Empire was confined to Greece and Anatolia only. @Alejojojo6
The Byzantine Empire originated from the Greek city Byzantium .
It was based on the Hellenic culture, language,and Greek Orthodox religion.
Rome was an enemy of Byzantium the reason why they never came to.the rescue of Constantinople.
In 1453 during the siege by the Ottoman savages.
@@Basil-HDIf it was the same state they would've spoken the same Latino language. But they didn't because the were originally ionians Hellenic people who spoke Greek and not the Latino language of the west.

fabulous illustration ! make another for the rise and fall of byzantine empire too!
I dont quite understand how army movements correlate with settlement of areas. For example, the video states that after defeat in Galia those armies took sanctuary in Spain and turned into Alani, Suebi and other tribes. Were the armies marching with all their women and children?
Yes, they really did. In these tribes the armies were followed by long columns of wagons with food, women, children, craftsmen, and even merchants. A similar picture with the armies of different countries could be seen in history until the 17th century, until the rulers directly began to forbid keeping women and children in the army.
In most cases, yes. These weren't just armies, but entire tribes with their families and all their livestock and belongings. At this time in history many Germanic tribes were on the run from famine, rival tribes or steppe nomads which caused displacement of entire peoples. They needed to lay claim to a new homeland or die trying.
Yeah they were, In fact in Spain most women, children and common men settled in "Tierra de Campos" (Look it up in English wiki) or _Gothic Plains_ as it was known before, a fertile land in north-central spain (Castile-Leon) while the Visigothic Elites and Aristocracy settled mostly in cities.
There was another model from earlier times, when hordes of young men would set off to conquer and pillage, taking the spoils with them although not necessarily occuping the area. But some of them also stayed around to establish a seat of power, eliminating most of the men and marrying the daughters of local leaders to establish loyalties. I believe both the celtic and germanic branches of the steppe nomade had such migration behaviors.
It’s crazy that we, in our little slice of time, also believe our great civilizations will last for a thousand years. So many things change and will change
The people of Illyria and so on whom were displaced and forced to speak different slavic languages the migrations displaced a lot of people and their languages and sadly it invited turks to exist outside of central asia
First seconds "ancestors of spaniards came from sweden". Stopped, commented this, and now i'm leaving.
I agree with what you mean, but the fanny fact is that you have a surname of Visigothic origin. For any person, the ancestor count more than 1000 years ago, is largely more than a million, so it is unlikely for every Spaniard have not "some" Visigoth ancestor. That does not mean retain any DNA of the original swedes, that at the time of Hispania invasion were already very mixed, but it has a grain of truth.
@@nicomedes9555 you say "a grain of truth" sure I might agree, but it's not presented that way in the video. It is implicitly understood that when we say "your ancestors are from X" that means >50%. Saying you have X ancestry when in reality it is less than 1% of DNA is just completely disingenuous. A few surnames does not make an ethnicity.
As a Dutch historian I'm amazed how wrong this video is. I must congratulate the person who got so many mistakes in such a short video. 😢
My Swedish ancestors agree with you.
Whoa, no mentions of Illirians nor Albanians in this video. Someone will be so upset and pissed up 😂😂😂😂
That's because we didn't move around 😉
Jezzusss!! Is there any single accurate data in this video??
Meanwhile the Balts: popcorn and chill.
Thank god youtube added misinformation reporting. Almost 15 years on youtube and i've only used it twice
It is a misnomer to call “Germans” the ancient peoples of the land the Romans called “Germania”, a name invented by Julius Caesar for political reasons at home. As was the case in those times, each tribe had a strong identity of its own and had no notion of being “germanic”. On the other hand, they did share dialects that were very close to each other (proto-germanic) as well as a common religion. The term “German” can only really be used after around 1870, when Otto von Bismarck united many of the German-speaking states into Prussia, which would later be assimilated to “Germany”. In antiquity, “germanic tribes” or “germanic nations” would be a better name for these fiercely independent peoples. - The same can be said of the Slavic tribes they before they formed the various Slavic nations we know today.
Hun Enpire broke into Avar Khanate and what would later be called Old Great Bulgaria. Bulgarians are not Turkic, but the first slavic people to form a kingdom, invented Cyrillic and gave the culture to all Eastern Europe, also perhaps the first Christians in Europe (alongside the Romans). The Bulgarian Tsar (Emperor) Simeon is the first ruler in the world the Romans bestowed the title to, coming from Caesar, then to be spread to all Eastern Europe with the language and culture. Old church slavonic is old bulgarian, as the bulgarian church is the first slavic church, and also the patron saints of other nations came to study in Veliko Turnovo to spread the alphabet and religion to their kingdoms. Given these, and that that Bulgaria is the oldest country in Europe, it is not small details to be overlooked, amidst the other generalisations in this video. You’re welcome :)
The word Bulgaria as such is clearly of Turkic origin, one of the most straightforward etymologies there is. Nobody but nationalist Bulgarians disputes the fact that they are the product of assimilated Turkic tribes.
Do you have anything on Great Croatia (Velikaya Horvatiya) and later White Croatia!?!!!
haven't planned a video like this yet, but I'll look into it
@@History_Mapped_Out Check out book •VELIKAYA HORVATIYA• (Great Croatia) by Aleksander Mayorov
for reference.

East Roman Empire not "Byzantium"(a name invented by Westerners)!!!
it's not an invention, the capital literally had this name.
Byzantium is most probably a word of Thracian origin, a people indigenous to the region.
This map has the Suevi up in northern France or maybe Spain? I thought Swabia in current western Germany is where the Suevi were.
yeah, you started pretty badly. Most of the ancestors of brits, spaniards etc already lived there, the invaders were a small % of the populations they conquered.
It's a good thing I had put down my drink before I started the video, otherwise I would have sprayed water all over the dog in my lap when they said that the swedes were the ancestors of the Spanish .
Did you mention the gepids..?
Very interesting, it’s high level but it is not wrong. Just notice that the Catalaunic fields are in northeast France (Champagne) and the Burgundians were coming from the island of Bornholm. So most of the northern barbarians were Scandinavians.
Mate what are you going on about the English ancestors lived in Denmark u do realise the Celtic culture spread through Europe they didn't move it was the culture when people began trading in the bronze age I really do not know where u got Ur info from
Υπερβολικά απλοποιημένα τα λες και χάνεις επεισόδια... Κατά τα άλλα είναι ένα ωραίο βίντεο στον τρόπο που τα παρουσιάζεις!
Huns didn't disappear. Turks, Hungarians and Bulgarians are their descendants as well as many other Central Asian peoples. Attila is still a common name in Turkiye.
Wrong info regarding Britain, which he kept referring to as England. "Without the Roman Empire, the world wouldn't be as we know it." - is like saying, without air, we couldn't breathe....duhhh, yeah?
When your work is a soulless money grab, AI generated, it's going to insert drama sentences to put some sugar and spice on the dogshit to make it palatable.
It is called the "Βαρβαρικές Εισβολές" Barbaric invasions.
Barbaric.....is quite right, seems as though Barbarianism is written in there 'DNA'!
Brilliant 😍 one of the Bestest 😀😮
If one rally wants to answer the question "how Europe was born" needs to start with Lepenski Vir and Vinca/Starcevo cultures, 7000-8000y old, mostly on the territory of today's Serbia.
The Bretons recruited the Jutes to help them fight against raids from the Picts after the Romans left...is actually what all the history books say happened !!!
The "Byzantines" DID defeat the Ostrogoths.
Thumbnail looks like your average game of Kaisereich
some of your borders and time period borders are inaccurate and sucky, but the overall video is solid, but not good.
Incorrect information
The topic addressed is much too complex to clarify the events, but as a start it is quite good.
Nice graphics presentation in video. One small note - there was no migration of Slavs. Slavs are the autochthonous population in the areas they still inhabit today.
Where did you get this information from?
From Serbian history, tradition and folklore. By the way, nice graphics in the video.
They found some Roman Emperor's conscript book. It scripts Slavic people's names from the Balkans even in 1 AD Serbians and their Alphabet have the most similarities with Indian Veda's. Even some things coorelate. That's History even before the Cristhianity@@History_Mapped_Out
Lmfaoooo Serbian cope. You're 7th century Carpathian immigrants.
Nope
Were they all decendants of Indo European Yamnaya or steppe nomads and herdsman from the Pontic Caspian steppe? So they all shared ancestry , like a tribe breaking apart, migrating, leaving a trail of populations, claiming a territory, becoming somewhat isolated and evolving from mother culture and tongue into something new, possibly being influenced by indigenous populations, and then meeting back up several centuries or millenia later with common ancestors and trading or fighting and not being aware that they were once one.
The entirety of Europe doesn't understand where they are truly from. I guess if you try to go back far enough, all people's origins are mysterious. We only have so much to work with. But trying to find the origins of the Cimmerians could get interesting.
This was made and narrated by A.I. I'd set my watch and warrant on it.
The internet was mostly regurgitated trash already, now it's regurgitated trash that people can't even be bothered to make. Get a library of 100+ year old books if you can afford it and want to learn actually.
Was almost nothing told about the AVAR "SMALL" EMPIRE ! And the Dacian - Dák - Daha empire either . Etc...
It's amazing how many tribes were here and there
Avars completely left out.
Are you sure about that?
Subscribed for part 2. ;)
Yup, click all the bells and whistles and lap up the AI dogshit.
Where there any Vandal remnants in Andalusia?
Thank you 🙏
Without the Roman Empire, the world wouldn't be as we know it you wright in description. Will Roman empire be created if it was not the Greek one before? I think the description is not accurate, theater and universities founded in Roman empire?, i think the influence of modern Europe is based somewhere else, also from Roman empire but in late times..
You totally skipped over first Serbian country back in 6th and 7th century. And many other stuff in this video are incorrect.
Those "ancestors" where a small marauding band ! They where absorbed by the local populas !!
During the raid of the Cymbri galia did not belong to rome as in the map
