- I decided it would be interesting to do an underground tour of sorts, but the underground areas were closed due to covid. So in this video we will get a history lesson from a well educated and traveled local historian about Serbian/ Belgrade (Beograd)and World history. It was very interesting to learn about the local history dating back as far as the Romans and even up to the present times. To learn about how the wars have impacted the area and peoples and how they managed and adapted, through those seasons. If you guys enjoyed this video please let me know, as I may have enough clips left over for a part two.

I wish history and geography class in school was this awesome.
Well said B S we would have been glued to our seats then huh!! ;>)
True history is awesome and why we arent taught it. Its a bit too awesome because it uncovers the massive lies and more importantly the mass of liars.
A very passionate history teacher, loved it.
Great David, so glad to share this, was so popular part two will be up Thurs. Cheers!
Enjoyed this group tour very much Vern as if I was there! Hope you continue to find more tour leaders like him throughout your journeys! He was great, knowledgeable, and professional!
Thanks Juan Carlos, so important for his knowledge to live on as these people are far and few these days. Take care also my friend!
I listened carefully the explanation of the person wearing the white hat about Beograd, very significants, very important, very greatest of everything. I started to fall in love with this city... Beograd_ Serbia. ❤ Beograd very much!
He forgot to mention one important fact, slavic invasion in this region in the 7th century AD. Because he is referring to roman emperor's from Serbia while it was Illyria back then and the ancestors of the slavs were totally missing this region!
@@illyriusk3919 interesting thing is that every single excavation of skeletons from ancient period matches our, Serbian DNA! No single matches Albanian DNA! No single toponym in any sort of your language? Medieval name of Serbia was MAGNA ILLIRICUM! So, how you could be Illyrian?
Well a man with the white hat maybe exaggerates a little with all the superlatives :), although all he said was historically correct. Anyway, the Belgrade is one of those cities that had to exist due to its geographical placement. Istanbul is probably the greatest example of the city with supreme geolocation. When you go to Istanbul, and look at Bosphorus from Topkapi palace, you can just feel the power of the location and control of the place where 2 continents meet. Similarly, when you look at confluence of Sava and Danube rivers from Belgrade fortress, you will have similar feeling. At least 60% intense comparing to Istanbul. It's a guarantee :)
@@slobodanilic3360 keep lying yourselves as long as you feel comfortable with your made up history.
@@illyriusk3919 only “made up” history is the history of Albanians!
Just wow
i never even thought to live on such a strategically important place
Maybe a blessing and a curse....
Najjasnije objasnjenje za strance ikad! Svaka cast gospodine! Bravo👏👏👏
Thank you also.
Interesting talk. u dont learn this kind of things in ur normal history class . Im glad u found a historian that speaks english. he is so serious about his topic. very knowledgable
Was great to have this asset to share for the future generations to know. Cheers my friend. One can feel his whole life and passion was to share his gained message, part two should be up this Thurs.

I really hope you do, is an amazing place with so many good memories. Take care my friend!
Great video...that's how one can learn most of history in foreign country...hire a highly educated historian !!! ...well done ...I love his enthusiasm and passion in his presentation!!!
Cheers my friend. Working on part two , will try to publish that for this Thursday ;>) Agree maybe best to find someone as passionate as we can learn so much from a local. He makes learning history interesting, cheers!
Interesting Vern, enjoyed it. Bring on Part 2.
Cheers my friend, working on it now for this Thurs.
Bravo stari chapo
Cheers Goran, thanks.
Great!
👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you, cheers!!
I'm glad you visited Kalemegdan with a guide is a totally different perspective when someone explains it to you. Now you have awakened the ghosts :) you can already see from the comments the competition whose history is more accurate:)Btw, I recommended you to visit the underground,and I am surprised that it is closed because on the official page and on instagram it says that it is open.Maybe another time :) Very nice video:)
Cheers Iva Gia. I was trying to visit the underground with this guide but everything was close due to covid. So we got the above ground tour ;>) It is funny how passionate people are about history, I wish these same people would offer their time and talents to excavating the historic ruin sites with maybe only 10-20 percent has seen daylight. Then we can truly know what the "real deal" is. Till then there will always be ghosts. Cheers my friend.
@@HeyVernTravels Unfortunately, we call the Balkans a barrel of gunpowder,and I totally agree with you that energy should be directed to something else.:)If you are interested in the recent past,visit the Museum of Yugoslavia and Tito's blue train.I also recommend that you watch a documentary before the tour if you have time,it is called :"Cinema Komunisto".Tito loved movies, so Hollywood stars and directors of that time came and filmed in Yugoslavia.The film is about life in that age through film.I am glad that you are enjoying Serbia:) Cheers Vern :)
Amazing how he skipped over 2000 years in about 2 sentences and moved to the Roman era, who finally arrived and took credit for everything. Most of what the Romans learned they learned from the Phoenicians.
@Popcorn Seller The Romans and the Phoenicians had numerous battles, but we only talk about the Romans. Where did they go? They have to have become Europeans right?
Maybe not everyone is that versed in certain times in history, much of the Balkan Roman history is still under the dirt...possibly 80 to 90 percent of it.
Possibly so.
Needs to be brief, agreed.
@@HeyVernTravels who ever lived there in ancient times had a culture, custom, tradition, almost all serbian epic songs sing about a heros and heroic battles what happened in Iron age that has archaeology confirmed. This people haved house defenders who kept the bad things out of the house in form of Ghosts, Serbian people still have this tradition in every single house in Serbia, its free day from job paid. My DNA results showed that I have 14 ancestors who laying in Mokrin Necropolis dating 1995 bc , 18 Ancestors all over Croatian Cost, in army of Alexandar Makedonski the great. We are just sick 🤕 from that that we have come here and invade and we kill all the people of the world. You are in Serbia long time and if you have that impression when you meet Serbian people. Sorry for my American
Part 2? Maybe?
Cheers, this Thurs Dejan :>)
Vern, do you know what century the second s was removed from the word history?
The guide was interesting. Hey hey hey, Good Job... 👍❤️🙏
Cheers C Greg...guess...hmmm... when Michael Jackson died and( His Story) S was removed? Ha....Enlighten me..what have you got C Greg?
@@HeyVernTravels I was asking because I didn't know... Hmmm, I think your on the right track, but maybe just a few million years off, lol.
Keep on trucking Vern. Take care 👍🙏
He makes it sound like all the Celts were defeated and moved "byack" to the Northwest when it was only one tribe of Celts who never went "byack" to the Northwest they mixed in with the Illyrians (who were also from the middle east and Greece. Celts were in Iberia East and Iberia west (Armenia) and then all over Europe from both sides, they just took on different tribe names. I dont think this guy knows its much more complicated than just saying the Celts, hell Rome also consisted of Celts (Gauls)- people forget they are all related.
I can also conclude also most are probably related to some degree with years of mixing. Also we had limited time so there is that.
Ever think of going to Moldova??? I hear it is becoming an expat haven due to costs...
Joseph, yes...Moldova, Bosnia, Kosovo and a few others for sure. An expat haven I didn't know that. Did you spend some time there Joseph?
@@HeyVernTravels
No, but I have Ukrainian friends who say it's the cheapest place to live in Europe... And SAFE...
Nice, but just a part of history of Belgrade ..
Cheers, so much more to learn for sure Majorfatal1 :>)
@@HeyVernTravels You got few underground touristic tours under Belgrade if you like ..
The important question is, who is this guy? Is he Christian, Muslim, Jewish? You will obviously get a different story from each.
He keeps mentioning Jews so imho what you just heard is all fabricated to keep you from true history.
@angel eyes Ferdinand Behr murdered Franz Ferdinand. Look it up. Start here: www.historytoday.com/archive/history-matters/sarajevos-elusive-assassin
@angel eyes set up just like Sirhan Sirhan and Oswald.
@angel eyes Funny how there are still dozens and dozens of people out there claiming that Princip is being arrested in the photos, yet its Behr who is pictured being arrested. Princip is nowhere in sight, a guy who was eating a hamburger near the spot Prince Ferdinand was shot, a place Prince Ferdinand wasnt scheduled to be at..
@angel eyes Its also extremely ridiculous that they claim Princip had Tuberculosis and had nothing to lose by murdering Prince Ferdinand (like Jack Ruby when he murdered Oswald), but Princip obtained Tuberculosis due to the prison conditions he placed in. The little fibs add up dont they?
It was cool comparing Serbian graffiti to American graffiti........
Seems the youth are so political in their graffiti message in Serbia, do you feel the same where you are at David?
@@HeyVernTravels No, there are junky grafiti most, then ultras suporters of football clubs, then political ..
@@HeyVernTravels Not really, I am living in the mountains of Arizona. Although we do have a art community here it is pretty conservative
