A conspiracy theory is an explanation for an event or situation that asserts the existence of a conspiracy by powerful and sinister groups, often political in motivation (none of these )
yeah, space Hungarians vs space Romanians coming to Earth from outer space only to fight for Transylvania is like a Balkan version of Alien vs Predator
My favourite conspiracy theory is one I heard from a Romanian taxi driver, and it's got some genuinely cool lore. I might actually steal this for my next tabletop campaign. So the Planet Earth is a living being with a soul, and it is angry at humanity for polluting it. The Earth's spirit can also manifest through rocks, minerals, metals, etc. that were removed from it. And since electronics are made using metals and rare earth minerals, that means once we reach a certain level of AI development, the Earth will take over all electronic systems on the planet and start a robot uprising to exterminate humanity.
@pufocina It seems you have same things, you have ordinary classic Vlkodlak and you call them "dogmen", when I read it for the first time, it was like an old grimoire about Lycanthropy, that explaining it from practical side is, and other sources of many various time periods or nations. It was shocking anf fantastic and even the minor details only someone who would have met it for real, would even know and could tell. Dogma is our old Slavic Vlkodlak before Hollywood and modern beliefs.
C*m doesnvt mean I am but not? Or I am not? So strange. I am listening to pieces of Srbian and Croatian for long days today and I thought I can understand a lot. But this makes opposite sense in my head in the sentence, the world I am not as 2nd letters, that's like I am and Ne=No. But since Bulgaria I am not shocked. How could I understand the parts I certainly did?
in russian speaking segment there is a word "Вангую"(i'm Vangaing) meaning "i'm predicting" usually used in ironic ways. It came in to the lexicon in 2000's after another media frenzy on Vanga saying she predicted everything.
Yeah, bulgarian here, she was always right, the problem is we know about her prediction after the thing she predicted happens. Jokes aside, one speculation I've heard is she was fed info about the people who came by bulgarian secre police.
In the Netherlands we have a similar medium called "Jomanda". She said that she could put healing power into bottles of tap water by holding them in her hands. (lmao) Eventually there was a riot because some tv delibrity died of breast cancer and this medium allegedly told her that she didnt need to go to a doctor because she didnt really have cancer. She then moved to Canada to continue her grift there are was never convicted for her role in this death. Theres so many crazy grifting people out there and even in the information age people want to believe ridiculous things.
I mean she predicted the two towers and that Bush is gonna be the one responsible. She pretty much predicted many stuff, the lose of Hitler when Hitler visited her village, when he didnt believe her what she was saying, just in that exact moment she told him that in the next barn a little lamb is just gonna be born, and the barn was in the next village, so she couldnt know, german soldiers went and saw that the little lamb was being born and that the mother died.
Boy, I once met a fellow hungarian who actually belived that we're from space. Poor man was adamant also, he believed that the real hungarian crown is like 5 million years old and is kept somewhere in America. Considering how the '90s and early 2000s were all about people being obsessed with the USA it's not that hard to understand the latter half either.
@kristofpolgar ... I don't know about us Magyars being alien ...lol ... BUT the crown of Saint Stephen was actually in America in a vault at Fort Knox that is true... It was returned after the fall of communism
Romanians definitely have the most esoteric conspiracies of all. I actually trecked the Bucegi Mountains with some friends to find the Bucegi paranormal tunnels, but ended up finding a bear so the quest had to abruptly end... maybe there are so MANY bears in Romania to keep you from finding any proof about that area 😂
The bears in Romania area actually mind controlled CIA agents that keep people away from the tunnels. In case someone really believes this, im just joking.
There is ancient Dacian bear attracting technology buried within the tunnels that calls bears to move into the area and brainwashes them to serve as protectors of the relics, and forbidden treasures. The bears affected by this also live longer, some even hundreds of years, and the older they get, the smarter they become. Some ancient guardian bears have achieved levels of wisdom thought only possible for an ancient alien Hungarian noble prize laureate.
Yeah, kinda like me and some friends went exploring all kinds of cave systems in our area looking for gold hidden by "haiduci", some kind of rebel robbers from old times who would rob rich people ("boierii") of their gold and hide the gold in caves.
I'm Slovenian and in my hometown there's a barber who's a massive schizo conspiracy theorist. Everyone in town makes fun of her for it. One day a few years back i went in to get a haircut and for 3 hours (my haircuts usually only take around 20 minutes) she ranted about different conspiracy theories she had heard from some random woman on facebook and how this woman on facebook is going to save the world. The whole thing was pretty mind numbing so I don't remember most of the things she said but I did remember one theory she had. She said there is a massive underground pedo ring that most celebrities partake in. At the time I thought this was completely ridiculous but a few years later the Epstein list was revealed. Even though she was kinda right once, everything else she says is completely schizo
Claiming that a bunch of unnamed famous people are involved in vaguely defined sex offences is hardly an accurate prediction, and strictly speaking there wasn't any paedophilia happening on Epstein's island. The victims were young but not prepubescent.
The lady who cuts my hair is always ranting about Facebook conspiracy theories about wild new world order stuff too lmao, makes for an interesting hair cut every time
Man you could have made that claim about Biden and he would have rolled with it. After all, bidenopolis is greek, bideno is italian. bideninski is jewish. I am sure he wouldn't mind adding serbian to his repertoire
According to Bulgarian legend, the coast is littered with abandoned WW2-era pillboxes because German submarines would secretly come out to the beaches to collect Mud for Mud therapy even after the land route to Germany had been cut off. Apparently our soil is so rich in minerals it could bring the wounded back into the fight just by rubbing it into the skin. The Bulgarian Mud™extended WW2 by at least 2 years (no, we are not sorry).
oh yeah, Romania also has some of these muds, you can search to buy mud from Techirghiol, a lake near Constanța, many people really take it seriously. I've got a bucket of it at home for fun.
@@LumiSisuSusi ancient hungarians literally came here from asia. there were several places they stayed for a longer time and they adopted some parts of the local languages. Finnis is the best example because it has the most similarities. It's a weird mixture of the worst grammatical rules of the continent. Absolutely horrible to learn and not practical at all for easy, everyday communication. Not even if it's your first language. But when it comes to poetry, it's the most beautiful thing in the world. (only upside)
@@ragemishima9352 As a Hungarian: Hungarian is lame. It's has too few words, uses a lot of delegations, has a hard time incorporating new words, does not sound good and often has awkward rules.The only positive thing I can say about it is that the abc of it is phonemic (for most parts). Still not as bad as the people tho.
@@airtale.p what fo you mean by too few words? Like too many foreign words in common use? That is pretty common in all modern languages, as new tech and discoveries are adapted in from the english language as it is the commonly used international language of science/research.
1. Grand Victory of Great Bosnian Empire over Atlantis in 14000bc 2. Josip Broz Tito is descendant of Jesus 3. Serbs are descedant from hyperboreans 4. Two slanderman like guardians at Rtanj Gate 5. Vampires originated from serbia 6. Asthar Sheran galactic federation of light (its not originated from balkan but its very popular in some parts of Serbia and croatia) 7. Yakoob - the creator of white race (same cause as above) 8. Emperor Trajan is the same persona like Eperor Constantine 9. Nemanjici are from germany 10. Phantom history 11. In the beggining Serbs created God
Janoš, I just want to thank you man. As a Serb growing up in Bosnia, I was raised with the most nationalistic opinions. You have tought me tolerance and gave me a more objective opinion on my neighbors. Hvala ti brate, legendo živa!
We are Balkan brothers and sisters, but the western empires have been hard at work for many centuries to eradicate us, our histories and our cultures via indoctrination and trauma so we end up hating ourselves, our roots, and our neighbors (like they did in Ukraine on steroids for the last 20+ years, but really so much longer via the nazi ideology that was a british bastard baby invention). The brit "elites" are pros at narcissistic triangulation, to cause conflicts and start wars, and to get others to do their dirty bidding (exhibit Ukr again). If you need to hate something really evil, that's a good start there (british empire)! Lol Look at the mineral deposits in Serbia, and it all starts to make sense (it's always about resources). A balkan union would be a nightmare for the western mafia. Greetings from across the pond from a former Carpathian resident. P.S. Richard Poe and Matthew Ehret have books and blogs about what I mentioned above if you are curious to learn more.
The reason why such Serbs do not exist in bosnia is because they were killed either in the 40s or 90s, there is a reason for everything and there are reasons why people do things.
It genuinely baffles me how many Romanian ultranationalists identify with our Dacian ancestors, but not with our Roman ones. Like we can easily trace our lineage to the empire that was actually victorious in the Dacian wars, built cities and roads, and gave us our language and our name (not to mention mămăligă and plăcinte), but no. While Western fascists ape the Roman aesthetic without even being 5% Italian, Romanian fascists identify with the illiterate drunkards who got their asses beat, and are now twisting themselves into pretzels to "prove" that the Romans were actually descended from the Dacians.
The Dacian Arch in Rome honoring the campaign in reality, and anyone who made a simple inspection could verify, is a tribute to the Dacian . Roman life and customs did change after the interaction.
Hungarian here. My godmother believes the sirius thing. She talks about that to my grandma, who is old and believes everything. She told her that there is an alien captain (named "Ashtar" who looks like an elf from lotr) who will one day grab us and bring us to the 5th dimension where we can create anything. They even fantasize about the mansion and THE MAID they will have there...
The name "conspiracy" was given a bad reputation in order to hide the real conspiracies. People who don't believe in any of them are usually naive and ignorant. There are proven ones that are pretty scary. It's interesting that even if you come with all the documents, photos, arguments you want in the world, only because it has the tag of "conspiracy" people won't believe you because they're brainwashed. History was written by the winners and for the last 300 years, only the bad guys won.
I heard 2 theories (more like jokes) somewhere. 1.: "Jesus was hungarian, because nobody understand Jesus fully, just like nobody understands hungarians fully!" 2.:"The Egyptian Pharaoes were hungarian, because they got buried in the same way as leader Attila. . . . . . . A bit after their death, in the ground"
About baba Vanga. My family had relations with her, mostly my grandparents. To be honest many people came to her because she was a great healer. She really did have some sort of supernatural abilities. There is a story my grandparents told me of an old person waiting in line (there was always a big line of people waiting to see her) and suddenly Vanga went out of her house and told the old person that she knew why he was here: She explained that he was here to ask her about his son, who was in hospital, if he will be okay. She told him that to go now and see him, because if he wasted more time, he wouldn't have the chance to share his last words to him. And later my grandma ( ahe was the one who saw this scene play out) learned that the old man managed to say goodbye to his own son. Vanga also helped my family a lot, mainly with cures for health issues and gave us a lot of good advice. From the stories I heard, people mainly went to her for advice and health related questions, rather than seeking predictions for the future. I know few more stories my grandparents and even my own parents told me that they actually saw. And the stories always made me question the world we lived in, just because of this one person named Vanga
Montenegrin here- We love to claim that we’re actually part of the oldest civilization in the world, that the USA broke up Yugoslavia from the inside because we were becoming a superpower, and that many successful athletes and scientists are actually Montenegrin! However, our boomers are less into conspiracy theories and more into superstitious beliefs., folk tales and tradition. Would love a video about about funny and strange superstitions, customs and folk tales from the Balkans.
Well america's foreign policy is actually responsible form yugoslavia break up.. I recommend shock doctrine documentary to dive deeply into the american hegemony..
@@augustuslunasol10thapostle If America didn't have anything to do with the breakup of Yugoslavia, why was Kosovo's consitution written by Americans in Ohio?
As a veteran Stalker that has walked from Cordon to Limansk, I can say, that the true adventure is the Balkans, that place is an anomaly by itself and no body knows what artifacts lie in that god forsaken place.
Too bad literally nobody I know ever wants to hear MY theory on Baba Vangja and how the debris that got into her eyes were actually nano machines and the nano machines turned her into some kind of living computer able to predict future events by analyzing already familiar data, probably connected to some sort of wireless network too. Of course the people actually believing in Baba Vangja don't have the capacity to understand my sci-fi version of her :D
Probably the most famous Bulgarian conspiracy aside from Baba Vanga is about the town of Tsarichina. There has been numerous films by the national televisions about it. Here is a short snippet from Wikipedia: "The town is known for its alleged paranormal activity. In the early 1990s, it was nicknamed "Bulgaria's Area 51"[2] due to the local "Tsarichina Hole". This hole was dug by the Ministry of Defence of Bulgaria, who excavated an area in the center of the village during a project active from 6 December 1990 to 19 November 1992. A group of psychics convinced some influential military members to start an excavation. As the secret "Operation Lightbeam" commenced, the psychics changed their opinion on what to find in Tsarichina several times. They were looking "for a creature - a "yellow-haired monkey", a "Biblical personage", a "hermaphrodite extraterrestrial that would disprove Darwin's theory of evolution and would reveal humanity's extraterrestrial origins", or the hidden treasure of Tsar Samuil. After digging a 160 metres (520 ft) long tunnel at a depth of 70 metres (230 ft) without finding anything for two years, the project was abandoned due to "financial concerns", and the hole was sealed with concrete. Allegedly, one psychic committed suicide during the excavation and one involved officer killed himself after the end of the project."
This is just the top of the Ice berg. The most detailed version of this insane Theory that Hungarians came from Sirius, established the civilisation of Atlantis and Mu and created the human civilisation. Than after the collapse they became the magician elit of the antique and bronze age civilisations, because MAGyar- MAGician. So Hungarians were the fire - light sun cult magicians of the civilisations, carrying the ancient Siriuis- Atlantean knowledge, later somehow becoming steppe nomads as Schytians - Sarmatians -Huns - Avars and Magyars and they came to Europe to take back their ancient ice age homeland of Pannonia which reminded them of Atlantis and every steppe herder mercenary raid rhey did was just to take back the ancient tresures of Attila, who was an angel of Christ and of course the Hungarian pagan religion was the true Christian way Sun-light-Jesus whatever way, and the Chatolic Church was the corrupted version ruined by jews. Basiacly the Hungarians are the chosen one nation to destroy the jewish free mason Illuminati and bring back the light to the world. Good brain blow
As a Bulgarian whose mom is absolutely a conspiracy theorist, i get to hear a lot of these absolute insane ideas and one of my favourites is "Bulgars had celestial contact with a God from a far galaxy". I will try to explain the very basics of the conspiracy, but trust me there is so much more to this: The theory goes that Bulgars had direct contact with a God called "Богиня Майка" (Direct translation being "God Mother") whose most represented as a woman with notably defined honkers for some reason as well as a smooth curve at the top of her head. She supposedly came from a completely different galaxy and gave Bulgars the knowledge to create the most accurate calender and most accurate numeral system (see Bulgar Calendar and Cyrillic Numerals for context) as well as a variant of a whip that can smoothly cut through people like butter due to its ability to move faster than the speed of sound. This conspiracy is also tied towards the idea that an Ancient Egyptian king was buried in a mountain on Bulgarian land, as well as the idea that the Dulo clan created a crown capable of injecting racist snake poison (im not kidding) that kills you if you attempt to wear the crown and you're not from a specific lineage.
Normally I hear one or two conspiracy theories and it´s easy to call them crazy. But hearing so many all at once, I can´t help but admire the rich fantasy with so much potential for storytelling. So thanks to your people and thanks to you for putting it all together
USA is a Hungarian colony because of the stripes in their flag which resemble the iconic "Árpád-sávok" and George Washingtons real name was Vásárosnaményi György
I've studied in Cluj for the past five years, and as a tradition me and some friends have been camping in Hoia Baciu every ear (this year was my third time). We usually camp right next to that circular meadow (literally 6-8 meters away from it), because the stars can be seen nicely from it. The only paranormal things we have experienced were a fox that tried to steal our sausages, the appearance (and sudden disappearance) of a pothead named Tudor that asked us if we have any weed (at 1 in the morning), and two teenagers asking us where the rave is.
The real conspiracy theories in balkans are: Serbia and Bosnia getting into EU, and them acutally having a stable economy + (it dosnt come from gambling)
Romania is in EU and still has a pretty shit economy ( a lot of the money going to the state being from gambling ) . Bulgaria, hungary and italy are 3 other EU countries that still have shit economy. And this is just what i know of. EU is not that great😂
Yall need to check the Albanian nationalist conspiracy theories. They are claiming that all Greek,Roman and most of Balkan and central european history is actually Albanian history. its so funny
This was an amazing watch. Being from the other side of the world (The Philippines), it's always fascinating to see culture and beliefs from other countries manifest - not just by historical fact, but also by outlandish claims thru conspiracy. I just love that there's a belief that there's a real-life equivalent of The Dwemer Race from The Elder Scrolls Lore, and at any whiff or hint of being savvy, a savant or someone well known - it's Dacian Aliens From The Mountains. Best we got here is Tomoyuki Yamashita's gold - a cache of collected loot through Japanese conquest during WWII was hidden in the Sierra Madre mountains of east Philippines, left behind and is just waiting to be uncovered. Though debunked, many people believe that the Marcoses (the Philippine equivalent of Ceaucescu) managed to find the treasure, and hid it inside a Head Statue carved out of a mountain of Ferdinand Marcos at Northern Philippines. Eventually, to de-Marcosify the nation - blew up the head statue, and found nothing. People still believe the gold is still out there - and that the current President - amazingly the son of the dictator himself - Bong Bong Marcos, is said to still have the gold. But yeah, like all your videos from Eastern Europe - its always fascinating to look into the lives and culture from countries outside where you're from. Cheers!
The most recent one I heard from my dad is that Bulgarians are the oldest civilization in the world and that the ancient Sumerian Civilization were actually Bulgarians. The evidence was that a lot of their words sounded similar or something.
Actually... your dad might not be that far off base, and if so we're about to hear a lot more about it... They're currently digging up stuff in Turkey that seems to show artistic and iconographic connections to Sumer / Akkadia. It's possible that entire region holds some of the keys to understanding our deep past. It's really interesting stuff. But I'd like to hear more about that linguistic connection... I'm not sure I've heard that one yet...
@@FromNothingIComethere can’t be a linguistic connection since the Bulgerians came around in the Middle Ages, the civilisation you are talking about are likely Hellenic and Anatolian and they probably spoke close to Mycenaean Greek.
@@Camel1453scio Modern Bulgaria perhaps. But those people, and their language, are very likely related to the people who lived there earlier. Like for example in the modern day we have a country called Turkey. But once upon a time a big chunk of that area was called the kingdom of Van. And prior to that, it was called Uratu. Yet many of the same people (ethnically speaking) have lived in that same area for millennia, with some obvious small genetic shifts / additions. Also, tho there was obviously a strong Hellenistic influence in that area for quite some time, there were other languages spoken in the region, especially when you go further back or forward... Anyway, modern Bulgaria isn't all that far from the Aforementioned Turkey. And back when Turkey was called "Uratu" they wrote in Cuneiform, and most definitely had connections to Assyrian culture. In fact Assyria swept through that whole area, and correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that was way before Greece... And we know Assyrian culture has plenty of parallels and connections with Sumer... As such, TBH I don't think it's as far fetched as you make it sound... and like I said, I feel like we're going to learn a lot more about the ancient history of this region, in the coming years... 🤷
Fun fact: Pizarro didn’t actually kill the last Incan emperor. He fled into a Time Machine and then became a rapper, dying in 1996 due to small pox (The joke is that Tupac was also the name of the last Incan emperor and was also the name of a few other Incan emperors before him)
In Poland there is one conspiracy theory that's directly related to the balkans and it became somewhat popular in 2010s, but now somewhat died down: In our country there is a legend about three brothers: Lech, Czech i Rus. The legend is a somewhat symbolic of the Slavic nations and each "brother" is suppoused to represent one of them, but it's just that, a legend. Well... there are some people who believe that it's an actual retelling of true historical events. The legend was first written down in 1200s as a part of the "Polish-Hungarian Chronicle" and as such there are schizos who think that it tells the actual history of europe (even though it contradicts with other stuff written within the same book). They say that in ancient times predating even the first Polish kings Europe was split into three major empires that competed with the Romans: The Great Czechia that covered all of the western Europe from Germany to Spain, The Great Lechia that spanned from the Baltic sea to Egypt, and Russia(Yes, Russia, not "Great Russia", just Russia) which had pretty much the same borders as now. There are a lot of different "branches" of this theory with differing beliefs, some of them like the "Lechici" group are more akin to an actual cult than just a group of shizos talking to one another. The most wacky version of it that I've heard is that these three brothers weren't just ancient rulers of Europe, instead they were the actual first humans on earth - that the true location of bibilical garden of Eden is at the Odra river, and that "Adam Lech" is the actual Adam mentioned in the bible. These nutjobs also constantly call for "action" against the balkans, telling that it's only a matter of time till the next reincarnation or version of the great Lech will arrive, and as such they should start preparing for military conquest of the balkans that are suppousedly "rightfully Polish territory".
So, this will be a fun one, I am from Stara Zagora, Bulgaria. Recently I learnt from one the gypsies at work about a local legend from the nearby village of Hrishteni, a legend about a multi-century old giant snake with legs and a long gray beard. According to the gypsies the snake is neutral in nature, working on a "fuck around and find out" basis, if you don't mess with it, it leaves you be, if you mess with it... well... one of 'em said that no matter where you try to run and hide, it will find you and you will die. Another gypsy in the group claimed to have lost a relative to the snake, also mentioned a semi-recent incident of a bulldozer found flipped in Hrishteni, they claim the dozer disturbed and angered the great snake so it tore one of the dozer's tracks off and flipped the thing without hurting the operator in it. The Gypsies description of the snake kind of matches that of a traditional Chinese dragon, being bearded, long, with legs, armored scales, nigh-invincible (they claimed someone shot at it with a shotgun and the pellets just bounced off) and being so big and heavy it could total a bulldozer. I never knew there was such a legend nearby and also had no idea how anyone can believe in something so ridiculous and illogical as a literal giant serpent, without any recorded evidence of it existing... in 2024... everyone has a good enough quality camera on their person at ALL times. Last time I checked, giant serpents are not subtle or easy to hide. That's about it really.
you can joke about it now, but don't come back here crying when the giant bearded serpent tries to eat you alive. gypsies never joke about such things and you should believe them.
@tomgu2285 serbian and bulgarian have a common ancestor language, so its not strange to have similar or same names for things. At least through text, a bulgarian can understand most serbian words and vice versa. Belgrade was named by bulgarians. (Im not saying its bulgarian just that it was named by us).
Totaling means it costs more to repair than what it would be worth if you sold it before it was damaged. I don’t think ripping one of the tracks off and flipping it is enough to do that
Never heard of this laser tank, but Szhatie/Сжатие (means "Compression") is a very strange name for one. Then again who knows, the Soviets gave artillery systems flower names and surface to air missiles were named after geometric shapes. Growing up in Russia one popular conspiracy was that TV towers (like Ostankenskaya in Moscow) had a mind control beam as well, so if you liked too close to it you'd become very vulnerable to suggestion.
That mind control beam sounds exactly like something the Soviet Union would actually do. Putin is probably trying to find where they put the blueprints.
The name was probably in reference to its set-up. NATO laser technology covered a large frequency range, so the 1K17 had twelve laser projectors, each operating at a different frequency. So the 1K17 "compressed" all of these functions into one vehicle.
Great Idea for new series: Conspiracy Teories of each country/region were main the conspiracy teories will be shown. Probably too much work but it for sure would be something great :)
Its crazy here in Bulgaria. People are saying "we hate people with different colours and religions" and at the same time they are offended if you calling them racists.
I remember there's a popular theory in Russia (not Balkans, but whatever) about the Metro-2, which was a series of secret metro branches running from the Kremlin to other parts of the Soviet Union (now, just Russia), built back when Stalin was Secretary General. There is truth to this theory, Metro 2 does exist, and functioned as an evacuation measure for the government in case Moscow was to be taken by the Nazis, or by the western powers. It apparently also lead to a series of bomb shelters and connected various strategic locations. A good chunk of the information is still classified, but some state that it leads to a whole underground city.
Yeah, there are some similar theories about how the Parliament of Romania has underground tunnels going outside the capital, there might be some truth to this as we know that tens of thousands of workers worked on that project.
There are theories like this in the USA that nuclear powered tunnel machines have made secret underground subways that connect all our major cities and Deep Underground Military Bases (DUMBs) where we have access to alien technology.
I've met a number of Serbian people who are big fans of Jovan Deretic, a Serbian historian who basically claims that Serbs are top 5 oldest nations ever and that about 80% of Europeans are ex-Serbs who, at one point of their history, decided that they don't want to be Serbs anymore.
That is just a very dumb oversimplification of the hypothesis of Old Europe (Proto-Indo-European urheimat hypothesis) either by your dear Jovan Deretic or more likely by you.
@@GholaTleilaxu Yeah exactly I went to highschool with a bunch of people who believed this and it's just a strange retelling of the story of the proto-indo-europeans, idk much about the Dacian theories, but I wouldn't be surprised if they turned out to be the same thing
I know even a funnier Dacian tunel version, here it is. "Traian was acctually Dacian, but he had a fight with Decebal and he decided to betray Dacia, he used the not so secret of that time tunels under the charpatians mountains to go to Rome, as Rome was acctually a Dacian founded city and the Dacians were the original latin speaking population, anyway, he went to Rome and became Emperor somehow came back to Dacia and conquered it."
I know this one too, I will be honest, from all crazy stuff out there this one has the most ‘proof’ but I am not deep into it, I do like the “Jesus is (my nationality)” balkan thinking theory
@@Enigm3When would he have gone from being a random Dacian to being the son of a prominent Roman senator? I’m not trying to make fun of you; I actually just wanna know more about the conspiracy theory.
Yes yes yes yes! My dad used to tell me about how Ceausescu hid alien tech in the Carpathians, and how there is a laser protecting us from nuclear warheads!
My favourite is the one which tries to argue that the Hungarian runic writing's symbols came from God himself. I don't know why would anyone pin this one on God, since as we all know Hungarians invented EVERYTHING.
You should make a part 2 of this video. Here’s a list of Bulgarian conspiracy theories that I would like to see in another video: The Hole at Tsarichina People in Bulgaria call it Bulgaria’s Area 51. In the 80’s some Bulgarian mystic (not Baba Vanga) started writing in an unknown language. Then Baba Vanga told people that the other Bulgarian mystic was being instructed to write the things she wrote by an alien creature which was also the first human and was sexless. The creature was super smart and capable of destroying the world and was said to be buried in a capsule under the village of Tsarichina where it was hibernating. After hearing that the Bulgarian army immediately started digging a spiralling tunnel under Tsarichina in order to reach the mystical creature. During the digging the army didn’t bother to reinforce the tunnel at all but miraculously it managed to not collapse under its weight. Locals also reported noticing strange lights in the sky above the hole during the whole operation. The army dug around 150 meters long tunnel before stopping and filling the whole tunnel with concrete. Baba Vanga then said that they were only 4-5 meters away from reaching the capsule but thankfully they didn’t because that would have caused the End of the World. Bastet’s Tomb Another story really similar to the one about the Hole at Tsarichina is about the tomb of the Ancient Egyptian goddess Bastet. It is said to be located in the Strandzha Mountain right next to the border with Turkey. A Turkish treasure hunter visited Baba Vanga and asked her, if it was true that there was a tomb of the Ancient Egyptian goddess Bastet buried in Strandzha near the border with Turkey to which she replied with “yes”. She also said that in the tomb was an artefact with vast knowledge which could tell the history of mankind plus hundreds of years into the future. Like in the case with the Hole at Tsarichina an army once again came to dig but this time it was the Soviets. They started digging and then left leaving a big hole in the rock that can still be seen today. Some say they found the tomb and stole everything from it which was then shipped to Russia. Others believe that they failed to find the tomb. Around 2017- 2018 a group of archaeologists started using ground-penetrating scanners to search for the missing tomb and after some time searching the area they said they found it. They said on the scanners they found multiple chambers with many tunnel like exits and that in one of those chambers was some kind of an object. They made a video on TH-cam about their research and showed pictures from their scanners. They then said that they would begin digging next year but since then nothing has come out. Rupite At her elder years Baba Vanga decided to move to live at the locality of Rupite in Southwestern Bulgaria near the town of Petrich. The area has a lot of geothermal activity with multiple hot springs in which the water can reach around 83° C. Baba Vanga has said that she chose the area because of its high energy. She has also said that the area was once a volcano and above it was an ancient city of a highly technologically advanced civilisation populated by super-humans who wore clothing made of silver. But then the volcano erupted and the whole city was buried under lava. “Holy Trinity” Cross Forest In Southern Bulgaria on a hill deep in the remoteness of the Rodope Mountains is the “Holy Trinity” Cross Forest. It’s a complex with a monastery, a church, 12 chapels for each of the Apostles in Christianity, a fountain with holy water and a metal cross right at the top of the hill. According to the legend in Constantinople the Byzantines kept a big piece of the Holy Cross on which Jesus was crucified. When the Ottomans came and threatened to conquer Constantinople some Byzantine monks set on a journey to hide the piece of the Holy Cross in order to protect it. They decided to hide it in the remote and wild Rodope Mountains. It is believed that sick people who spend a night at the Cross Forest will miraculously heal and if you pray to God while hugging the metal cross at the top of the hill and ask God about things, He will grant your wishes. Belintash Very close to the “Holy Trinity” Cross Forest is the rock formation Belintash. It’s filled with human dug holes which were used for collecting rain water by the Thracians. The conspiracy theory is that those holes were used by aliens for navigation as a map and that there’s a hidden treasure beneath the rock formation. Baba Vanga predicted Tsar Boris III’s death Don’t exactly remember what she said to Tsar Boris III but it was something a long the lines of “Your rule has spread a lot (Bulgaria has become big) but it is time for you to return in a shell. Remember 28th August.” Tsar Boris III died on 28th August. Peter Dunov Apart from Baba Vanga there’s another really popular in Bulgaria mystic and that’s Peter Dunov. He has lots of followers which each year go to the Seven Rila Lakes to dance in a big ritual. He correctly predicted that the Romanians would return Southern Dobruja back to Bulgaria with the help of the “Reds” (commies). He believed that God favours ethnicities differently, some more than others, that some ethnicities are closer to God than others and that the ethnicities that are closest to God and God favours the most are more likely to go to heaven than the other ethnicities. According to Dunov Bulgarians were the closest to God followed by other Balkaners, then by other Eastern Europeans and so on. So basically according to Dunov Bulgarians are God’s chosen people instead of the Jews. The Ten Lost Tribes of Israel There’s a theory that the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel either migrated to the Balkans and mixed with the Thracians or migrated to Central Asia and mixed with the Bulgars in both cases resulting with Bulgarians being descended from the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel. The Holy Grail There’s a theory that the Holy Grail is somewhere in Bulgaria. Ancient tunnels Like the Romanians Bulgarians also have conspiracy theories with ancient tunnels. In the case of Bulgaria they were either built by the Thracians or the Ancient Macedonians and it is believed that Alexander the Great’s chariot is in one of those tunnels. Black Sea Civilisation and the Great Flood 6000 years ago the Black Sea was twice smaller than it is today. Some believe that there was a highly populated for its time civilisation along the old Black Sea coast. The lowlands along the Black Sea had the highest population density in the world for its time. That civilisation was the birthplace of the Indo-European language family. Then through the Bosporus Strait water from the Mediterranean started pouring into the Black Sea destroying the civilisation along its coast in the process. The survivors migrated north towards modern day Ukraine and Russia and south towards Anatolia and the Caucuses. This might explain why ancient Anatolians and Armenians are genetically different from other Indo-Europeans even though the ancient Anatolians and Armenians were and in the case of the Armenians still are Indo-Europeans. This could also explain the Great Flood from the Bible. Bulgarian nukes Some believe that during the Cold War the Soviet Union stationed many nuclear weapons in secret bunkers throughout Bulgaria and after the collapse of communism the Soviets forgot to bring them back which is why Bulgaria now has fully operational nukes.
Tunnel theory exists in Northern Greece too. First time I heard it was when I was a tour guide in a cave, and a guy told me about "The other stuff, the ones we don't show to the tourists." When I asked for an explanation, I learned that Alexander the Great and his army had dug tunnels everywhere, below Macedonia, and they were popping up very fast wherever. Turns out, guy wasn't the only one believing it unfortunately, being "Common knowledge" around here 🙃
To the Jesus part: Jesus was born in a palace between Jerusalem and Betlehem, he went to some places like India, Hungary and Romania. He spent some time in Oradea where he met Mary Magdalene. Jesus was 17 at this time and fell in love with her, 13 years later Jesus and Mary had a wedding at Kana. Thanks for your time reading this ⚜️
We Macedonians are great conspiracy theorists. Did you know that the name Macedonia comes from India? Our ex president Gjorge Ivanov found out about it. Did you also know that Ohrid is far ahead of everyone in the linguistic department? They can understand each-other with just saying "E". I mean they invented the Cyrillic, Latin, Greek, Egyptian and many other alphabets there thousands of years before anyone else started to use them.
Yeah it’s usually used by extremist political parties and their adherents. I love how dumb they are, looking at their facebook profiles, most of them aren’t very educated and take whatever daddy George Simion says or mommy Șoșoacă without thinking a bit
I live in romania and i never heard anything even close to that theory. But like most romanians i don't listen to what politicians say, especially someone like a mayor in cluj. It's not that i don't care about politics it's just that i cannot understand what they are saying. All i hear is bla bla bla. I think the guy just wanted some media attention and made this whole thing up
My favourite one is that there is a country that: -Speaks bulgarian but tells Bulgarians they can't understand them because they speak "Macedonian" -Have three different nationalist political parties that eachother claim a different nationality -claim Alexander the great was their ancestor (Bulgarian) and not Greek despite his own belief, his name, his language, his religion, his heritage from Peloponnese, the fact he participated in the Olympics(only Greeks allowed back then) and that he literally began Hellenistic era himself
Some other conspiracy theories I've heard about in Romania: 1. Giant human-like skeletons (that were also radioactive, I think? Can't remember) found in some tunnels in the mountains, and the whole thing having been covered up by the Communist regime. (YT video about this is called: "URIAŞI de 10 metri descoperiţi în România | Tunelul secret unde au fost gasiti") 2. Underground tunnels built by the Dacians or aliens (idk what's up with us, Romanians, and tunnels. The Dacians must've been dwarves or something) beneath the black sea that links Romania, Bulgaria and Turkey. Apparently these ancient tunnels were used by animal hearders, in more recent time, in order to find better green pastures for their livestock to feed upon (doesn't make any f-ing sense), but they had to be careful when travelling said tunnels cause they could flood up very suddenly. It is said that one of the entrances of the tunnels is located in the old town part of the city of Constanta, which is the biggest city by the black sea, in Romania, and where I personally live. The entrance has been allegedly sealed off by the authorities by placing a giant slab of concrete on top of it so people can't enter anymore. 3. Oh, and Nikola Tesla is actually Romanian because we have a carpenting tool called 'Tesla' and I guess that's evidence enough. 4. Atlantis is at the bottom of the black sea. The black sea used to be a lake, until the great flood happened, and it became a sea, and Atlantis got swallowed by it.
We have a tool named teslo in Slovenia too. It is most likely Romanian language borrowed this word from Slavic, and Tesla may have been named from this tool or profession perhaps.
there is a theory in bulgarian that japanese people are bulgarians that didn't move out from their island and that boris the third chose to enter ww2 just because of japan and not the german ultimatum it also states that todor jivkov was a friend of hirohito and visited japan often with hiro telling him "good to see you after 2000 years"

the eminescu theory about him discovering relativity is actually something that we learned about in school but during a special physics class . it is true that eminescu was not a scientist but his poetry is highly related to relativity and there are many videos on youtube made by scientists who analyse eminescu’s poetry and argue that the poet encapsulated relativity in his poems but without being able to use concrete scientific facts

Honestly, the second I saw this video I knew a lot of Romanian conspiracy theories would show up. You forgot a thing about the Bucegi Mountains and the tunnel thing, people claim inside the tunnels there are or at least were giants, sometimes you hear the tunnels and giants theory intersect with Ceausescu's laser.
Ceaușescu's lazer is true. I know this from the local bum who was a general in the Securitate. He was so devastated by the destruction of Soviet tanks that he he developed PTSD and was dismissed from the army. I know it's true because he told me this after I got him a bottle of Mona and gave him 2 cigarreres.
Dude I love conspiracies from other slavic/neighboring regions, they seems sooo familiar and yet...so alien haha. Love the vid!❤ ALSO Disciples 2 soundtrack?? The sound of my people
I'm 3/4 Greek and 1/4 Swedish and I grew up in Sweden so I haven't been in contact with that many balkan conspiracies except through the internet and I had never heard of any of the ones discussed in the video. However, I do know a lot of balkan people through my parents (especially Serbs) and they sometimes say the most outlandish insane shit you could ever imagine. My godfather is from Surdulica in southern Serbia and he has the most wild and crazy ideas of any person I've ever met irl. When I was younger, I always thought I had a hard time understanding him because of his heavy Serbian accent. Turns out not to be the case, because other Serbs don't understand him when he's speaking Serbian either. He just likes to speak in riddles. He once said that Alexander the Great wasn't Macedonian and he wasn't Greek, but of course: Serbian. He thinks Swedish people are an offshoot of an old Serbian tribe who lost contact with the mother nation and forgot about our shared brotherhood with the Serbs. How he fits the timelines together is anybody's guess but I've come to realize these beliefs are never tied to any piece of evidence. He also believes in a secret global government consisting of a very few number of people (5-30 is my guess by the sound of his ramblings) who control everything and always favors the United States and NATO. My father and I often get into arguments with him over these things, and if it's not about history, it's usually politics (Kosovo, Ukraine, USA, etc). And for some reason he has a thing against France (he LOVES Corsica so maybe that's why). These type of conspiracies are often tied to things like antisemitism but no, he has no opinion on Jews at all and he doesn't think they're the ones controlling everything. He doesn't like Israel though, but then again, who does? lmao And trust me - there is NO convincing this man of the facts. I don't even think he has heard any of these things from other people. I think he just sits around and philosophises about these things and comes up with whatever conclusion sounds the coolest to him. It's like he exists in a separate reality where there is no objective truth; whatever wild speculation he has about any given topic just manifests itself into reality and becomes his personal truth. He also almost got killed once for picking a fight with some guys carrying an axe. Love that crazy dude.
This reminds me of a youtube comment I saw not too long ago of some guy claiming alexander the great being a Slav He said alexander's mom cuckolded his dad with a Slavic slave. No evidence of course, and doesn't make sense because at the time no written records or archeological records of Slavic contacts with Greece existed or that the Greeks even knew what a Slav was (yes it's possible that Slavic slaves made their way down to Greece, but their ethnicity wouldn't have been written about and they would have been conflated with Scythians). As someone from Turkey, I'll acknowledge that my people have their fair share of pseudohistory to stroke our egos, but the Balkans beat us on the "just randomly making shit up" department.
@@thenutella8846 Oh yes, Turks are often nationalistic maniacs but when it comes to nationalistic ego-stroking pseudohistoric nonsense, NOBODY beats the rest of the balkans 😂 Every balkan country is guilty of it but I personally think Macedonians, Albanians and Serbs are the worst offenders, especially when it comes to ancient and early medieval history. I don't even want to get into modern history because that's basically just one giant free-for-all genocidal spree from all sides 💀
To be fair the secret "global" government is definitely a thing, except I'm not sure how accurate that 5-30 people being behind it is. Here is a FACT(which anyone can find proof if they know how to search who owns companies) and not a conspiracy theory. ALL, yes you are reading it right ALL the media(as well as most of the mobile operators) in the Balkans/Eastern Europe is owned by companies that are owned by BlackRock and Vanguard. I'm sure by now everyone should know who BlackRock and Vanguard are. Every few years medias get sold to supposedly "new" owners, but when you look up the companies who bought them it's still the same companies behind them.

My favourite conspiracy theory is one I heard from a Romanian taxi driver, and it's got some genuinely cool lore. I might actually steal this for my next tabletop campaign. So the Planet Earth is a living being with a soul, and it is angry at humanity for polluting it. The Earth's spirit can also manifest through rocks, minerals, metals, etc. that were removed from it. And since electronics are made using metals and rare earth minerals, that means once we reach a certain level of AI development, the Earth will take over all electronic systems on the planet and start a robot uprising to exterminate humanity.
COOOL!!!!

@pufocina It seems you have same things, you have ordinary classic Vlkodlak and you call them "dogmen", when I read it for the first time, it was like an old grimoire about Lycanthropy, that explaining it from practical side is, and other sources of many various time periods or nations. It was shocking anf fantastic and even the minor details only someone who would have met it for real, would even know and could tell. Dogma is our old Slavic Vlkodlak before Hollywood and modern beliefs.

Romanians definitely have the most esoteric conspiracies of all. I actually trecked the Bucegi Mountains with some friends to find the Bucegi paranormal tunnels, but ended up finding a bear so the quest had to abruptly end... maybe there are so MANY bears in Romania to keep you from finding any proof about that area 😂
This will probably become a conspiracy theory 😅
The bears in Romania area actually mind controlled CIA agents that keep people away from the tunnels.
In case someone really believes this, im just joking.
There is ancient Dacian bear attracting technology buried within the tunnels that calls bears to move into the area and brainwashes them to serve as protectors of the relics, and forbidden treasures. The bears affected by this also live longer, some even hundreds of years, and the older they get, the smarter they become. Some ancient guardian bears have achieved levels of wisdom thought only possible for an ancient alien Hungarian noble prize laureate.

I'm Slovenian and in my hometown there's a barber who's a massive schizo conspiracy theorist. Everyone in town makes fun of her for it. One day a few years back i went in to get a haircut and for 3 hours (my haircuts usually only take around 20 minutes) she ranted about different conspiracy theories she had heard from some random woman on facebook and how this woman on facebook is going to save the world. The whole thing was pretty mind numbing so I don't remember most of the things she said but I did remember one theory she had. She said there is a massive underground pedo ring that most celebrities partake in. At the time I thought this was completely ridiculous but a few years later the Epstein list was revealed.

Janoš, I just want to thank you man. As a Serb growing up in Bosnia, I was raised with the most nationalistic opinions. You have tought me tolerance and gave me a more objective opinion on my neighbors. Hvala ti brate, legendo živa!
We are Balkan brothers and sisters, but the western empires have been hard at work for many centuries to eradicate us, our histories and our cultures via indoctrination and trauma so we end up hating ourselves, our roots, and our neighbors (like they did in Ukraine on steroids for the last 20+ years, but really so much longer via the nazi ideology that was a british bastard baby invention).
The brit "elites" are pros at narcissistic triangulation, to cause conflicts and start wars, and to get others to do their dirty bidding (exhibit Ukr again). If you need to hate something really evil, that's a good start there (british empire)! Lol
Look at the mineral deposits in Serbia, and it all starts to make sense (it's always about resources). A balkan union would be a nightmare for the western mafia. Greetings from across the pond from a former Carpathian resident.
P.S. Richard Poe and Matthew Ehret have books and blogs about what I mentioned above if you are curious to learn more.

Yup, checks out.
It genuinely baffles me how many Romanian ultranationalists identify with our Dacian ancestors, but not with our Roman ones. Like we can easily trace our lineage to the empire that was actually victorious in the Dacian wars, built cities and roads, and gave us our language and our name (not to mention mămăligă and plăcinte), but no.
While Western fascists ape the Roman aesthetic without even being 5% Italian, Romanian fascists identify with the illiterate drunkards who got their asses beat, and are now twisting themselves into pretzels to "prove" that the Romans were actually descended from the Dacians.
As far as I know according to this theory all the other languages on earth are actually Romanian dialects lol.
The Dacian Arch in Rome honoring the campaign in reality, and anyone who made a simple inspection could verify, is a tribute to the Dacian . Roman life and customs did change after the interaction.
There is no continuity from dacians to romanians

Hungarian here. My godmother believes the sirius thing. She talks about that to my grandma, who is old and believes everything. She told her that there is an alien captain (named "Ashtar" who looks like an elf from lotr) who will one day grab us and bring us to the 5th dimension where we can create anything. They even fantasize about the mansion and THE MAID they will have there...
Sounds like a typical religion.

Conspiracy theories tend to be a result of trauma. The Balkans has its fair share of trauma.
The name "conspiracy" was given a bad reputation in order to hide the real conspiracies. People who don't believe in any of them are usually naive and ignorant. There are proven ones that are pretty scary. It's interesting that even if you come with all the documents, photos, arguments you want in the world, only because it has the tag of "conspiracy" people won't believe you because they're brainwashed. History was written by the winners and for the last 300 years, only the bad guys won.
Balkans is trauma. Balkans needs therapy...and meds.
Trauma, brainwashing, stupidity and uneducation..
Its not just trauma....its the Fakt that a lot of them are real.

About baba Vanga. My family had relations with her, mostly my grandparents. To be honest many people came to her because she was a great healer.
She really did have some sort of supernatural abilities. There is a story my grandparents told me of an old person waiting in line (there was always a big line of people waiting to see her) and suddenly Vanga went out of her house and told the old person that she knew why he was here:
She explained that he was here to ask her about his son, who was in hospital, if he will be okay. She told him that to go now and see him, because if he wasted more time, he wouldn't have the chance to share his last words to him. And later my grandma ( ahe was the one who saw this scene play out) learned that the old man managed to say goodbye to his own son.
Vanga also helped my family a lot, mainly with cures for health issues and gave us a lot of good advice.
From the stories I heard, people mainly went to her for advice and health related questions, rather than seeking predictions for the future.
I know few more stories my grandparents and even my own parents told me that they actually saw. And the stories always made me question the world we lived in, just because of this one person named Vanga

Probably the most famous Bulgarian conspiracy aside from Baba Vanga is about the town of Tsarichina. There has been numerous films by the national televisions about it. Here is a short snippet from Wikipedia:
"The town is known for its alleged paranormal activity. In the early 1990s, it was nicknamed "Bulgaria's Area 51"[2] due to the local "Tsarichina Hole". This hole was dug by the Ministry of Defence of Bulgaria, who excavated an area in the center of the village during a project active from 6 December 1990 to 19 November 1992. A group of psychics convinced some influential military members to start an excavation. As the secret "Operation Lightbeam" commenced, the psychics changed their opinion on what to find in Tsarichina several times. They were looking "for a creature - a "yellow-haired monkey", a "Biblical personage", a "hermaphrodite extraterrestrial that would disprove Darwin's theory of evolution and would reveal humanity's extraterrestrial origins", or the hidden treasure of Tsar Samuil. After digging a 160 metres (520 ft) long tunnel at a depth of 70 metres (230 ft) without finding anything for two years, the project was abandoned due to "financial concerns", and the hole was sealed with concrete. Allegedly, one psychic committed suicide during the excavation and one involved officer killed himself after the end of the project."

This is just the top of the Ice berg. The most detailed version of this insane Theory that Hungarians came from Sirius, established the civilisation of Atlantis and Mu and created the human civilisation. Than after the collapse they became the magician elit of the antique and bronze age civilisations, because MAGyar- MAGician. So Hungarians were the fire - light sun cult magicians of the civilisations, carrying the ancient Siriuis- Atlantean knowledge, later somehow becoming steppe nomads as Schytians - Sarmatians -Huns - Avars and Magyars and they came to Europe to take back their ancient ice age homeland of Pannonia which reminded them of Atlantis and every steppe herder mercenary raid rhey did was just to take back the ancient tresures of Attila, who was an angel of Christ and of course the Hungarian pagan religion was the true Christian way Sun-light-Jesus whatever way, and the Chatolic Church was the corrupted version ruined by jews. Basiacly the Hungarians are the chosen one nation to destroy the jewish free mason Illuminati and bring back the light to the world. Good brain blow

As a Bulgarian whose mom is absolutely a conspiracy theorist, i get to hear a lot of these absolute insane ideas and one of my favourites is "Bulgars had celestial contact with a God from a far galaxy". I will try to explain the very basics of the conspiracy, but trust me there is so much more to this:
The theory goes that Bulgars had direct contact with a God called "Богиня Майка" (Direct translation being "God Mother") whose most represented as a woman with notably defined honkers for some reason as well as a smooth curve at the top of her head. She supposedly came from a completely different galaxy and gave Bulgars the knowledge to create the most accurate calender and most accurate numeral system (see Bulgar Calendar and Cyrillic Numerals for context) as well as a variant of a whip that can smoothly cut through people like butter due to its ability to move faster than the speed of sound.
This conspiracy is also tied towards the idea that an Ancient Egyptian king was buried in a mountain on Bulgarian land, as well as the idea that the Dulo clan created a crown capable of injecting racist snake poison (im not kidding) that kills you if you attempt to wear the crown and you're not from a specific lineage.

This was an amazing watch. Being from the other side of the world (The Philippines), it's always fascinating to see culture and beliefs from other countries manifest - not just by historical fact, but also by outlandish claims thru conspiracy. I just love that there's a belief that there's a real-life equivalent of The Dwemer Race from The Elder Scrolls Lore, and at any whiff or hint of being savvy, a savant or someone well known - it's Dacian Aliens From The Mountains.
Best we got here is Tomoyuki Yamashita's gold - a cache of collected loot through Japanese conquest during WWII was hidden in the Sierra Madre mountains of east Philippines, left behind and is just waiting to be uncovered.
Though debunked, many people believe that the Marcoses (the Philippine equivalent of Ceaucescu) managed to find the treasure, and hid it inside a Head Statue carved out of a mountain of Ferdinand Marcos at Northern Philippines.
Eventually, to de-Marcosify the nation - blew up the head statue, and found nothing. People still believe the gold is still out there - and that the current President - amazingly the son of the dictator himself - Bong Bong Marcos, is said to still have the gold.
But yeah, like all your videos from Eastern Europe - its always fascinating to look into the lives and culture from countries outside where you're from. Cheers!

The most recent one I heard from my dad is that Bulgarians are the oldest civilization in the world and that the ancient Sumerian Civilization were actually Bulgarians. The evidence was that a lot of their words sounded similar or something.
Actually... your dad might not be that far off base, and if so we're about to hear a lot more about it...
They're currently digging up stuff in Turkey that seems to show artistic and iconographic connections to Sumer / Akkadia.
It's possible that entire region holds some of the keys to understanding our deep past.
It's really interesting stuff.
But I'd like to hear more about that linguistic connection... I'm not sure I've heard that one yet...
@@FromNothingIComethere can’t be a linguistic connection since the Bulgerians came around in the Middle Ages, the civilisation you are talking about are likely Hellenic and Anatolian and they probably spoke close to Mycenaean Greek.
@@Camel1453scio Modern Bulgaria perhaps. But those people, and their language, are very likely related to the people who lived there earlier.
Like for example in the modern day we have a country called Turkey. But once upon a time a big chunk of that area was called the kingdom of Van. And prior to that, it was called Uratu. Yet many of the same people (ethnically speaking) have lived in that same area for millennia, with some obvious small genetic shifts / additions.
Also, tho there was obviously a strong Hellenistic influence in that area for quite some time, there were other languages spoken in the region, especially when you go further back or forward...
Anyway, modern Bulgaria isn't all that far from the Aforementioned Turkey.
And back when Turkey was called "Uratu" they wrote in Cuneiform, and most definitely had connections to Assyrian culture. In fact Assyria swept through that whole area, and correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that was way before Greece...
And we know Assyrian culture has plenty of parallels and connections with Sumer...
As such, TBH I don't think it's as far fetched as you make it sound... and like I said, I feel like we're going to learn a lot more about the ancient history of this region, in the coming years...

In Poland there is one conspiracy theory that's directly related to the balkans and it became somewhat popular in 2010s, but now somewhat died down:
In our country there is a legend about three brothers: Lech, Czech i Rus. The legend is a somewhat symbolic of the Slavic nations and each "brother" is suppoused to represent one of them, but it's just that, a legend.
Well... there are some people who believe that it's an actual retelling of true historical events. The legend was first written down in 1200s as a part of the "Polish-Hungarian Chronicle" and as such there are schizos who think that it tells the actual history of europe (even though it contradicts with other stuff written within the same book).
They say that in ancient times predating even the first Polish kings Europe was split into three major empires that competed with the Romans: The Great Czechia that covered all of the western Europe from Germany to Spain, The Great Lechia that spanned from the Baltic sea to Egypt, and Russia(Yes, Russia, not "Great Russia", just Russia) which had pretty much the same borders as now.
There are a lot of different "branches" of this theory with differing beliefs, some of them like the "Lechici" group are more akin to an actual cult than just a group of shizos talking to one another. The most wacky version of it that I've heard is that these three brothers weren't just ancient rulers of Europe, instead they were the actual first humans on earth - that the true location of bibilical garden of Eden is at the Odra river, and that "Adam Lech" is the actual Adam mentioned in the bible.
These nutjobs also constantly call for "action" against the balkans, telling that it's only a matter of time till the next reincarnation or version of the great Lech will arrive, and as such they should start preparing for military conquest of the balkans that are suppousedly "rightfully Polish territory".
every summer, our coast becomes "rightfully Polish territory" anyway 🍻🎶

Recently I learnt from one the gypsies at work about a local legend from the nearby village of Hrishteni, a legend about a multi-century old giant snake with legs and a long gray beard.
According to the gypsies the snake is neutral in nature, working on a "fuck around and find out" basis, if you don't mess with it, it leaves you be, if you mess with it... well... one of 'em said that no matter where you try to run and hide, it will find you and you will die. Another gypsy in the group claimed to have lost a relative to the snake, also mentioned a semi-recent incident of a bulldozer found flipped in Hrishteni, they claim the dozer disturbed and angered the great snake so it tore one of the dozer's tracks off and flipped the thing without hurting the operator in it.
The Gypsies description of the snake kind of matches that of a traditional Chinese dragon, being bearded, long, with legs, armored scales, nigh-invincible (they claimed someone shot at it with a shotgun and the pellets just bounced off) and being so big and heavy it could total a bulldozer.
I never knew there was such a legend nearby and also had no idea how anyone can believe in something so ridiculous and illogical as a literal giant serpent, without any recorded evidence of it existing... in 2024... everyone has a good enough quality camera on their person at ALL times. Last time I checked, giant serpents are not subtle or easy to hide.
That's about it really.
Well, I'll be asking my local zaaralia why we haven't gone snake hunting yet.
Why you guys have so many serbian names for villages and towns???
you can joke about it now, but don't come back here crying when the giant bearded serpent tries to eat you alive. gypsies never joke about such things and you should believe them.
@tomgu2285 serbian and bulgarian have a common ancestor language, so its not strange to have similar or same names for things. At least through text, a bulgarian can understand most serbian words and vice versa. Belgrade was named by bulgarians. (Im not saying its bulgarian just that it was named by us).
Totaling means it costs more to repair than what it would be worth if you sold it before it was damaged. I don’t think ripping one of the tracks off and flipping it is enough to do that

Never heard of this laser tank, but Szhatie/Сжатие (means "Compression") is a very strange name for one. Then again who knows, the Soviets gave artillery systems flower names and surface to air missiles were named after geometric shapes.
Growing up in Russia one popular conspiracy was that TV towers (like Ostankenskaya in Moscow) had a mind control beam as well, so if you liked too close to it you'd become very vulnerable to suggestion.
That mind control beam sounds exactly like something the Soviet Union would actually do. Putin is probably trying to find where they put the blueprints.
The name was probably in reference to its set-up. NATO laser technology covered a large frequency range, so the 1K17 had twelve laser projectors, each operating at a different frequency. So the 1K17 "compressed" all of these functions into one vehicle.

I remember there's a popular theory in Russia (not Balkans, but whatever) about the Metro-2, which was a series of secret metro branches running from the Kremlin to other parts of the Soviet Union (now, just Russia), built back when Stalin was Secretary General. There is truth to this theory, Metro 2 does exist, and functioned as an evacuation measure for the government in case Moscow was to be taken by the Nazis, or by the western powers. It apparently also lead to a series of bomb shelters and connected various strategic locations. A good chunk of the information is still classified, but some state that it leads to a whole underground city.
I thought you were talking about the game
Yeah, there are some similar theories about how the Parliament of Romania has underground tunnels going outside the capital, there might be some truth to this as we know that tens of thousands of workers worked on that project.
Perhaps the SU collapsed, because they had to stomach the cost of building a metro from Moscow to Omsk that only the central comitte can use.
@@pasaniucdaniel4112 it's not so far fetched, really. Such metros exist in North Korea and the USA.

You should make a part 2 of this video.
Here’s a list of Bulgarian conspiracy theories that I would like to see in another video:
The Hole at Tsarichina
People in Bulgaria call it Bulgaria’s Area 51. In the 80’s some Bulgarian mystic (not Baba Vanga) started writing in an unknown language. Then Baba Vanga told people that the other Bulgarian mystic was being instructed to write the things she wrote by an alien creature which was also the first human and was sexless. The creature was super smart and capable of destroying the world and was said to be buried in a capsule under the village of Tsarichina where it was hibernating. After hearing that the Bulgarian army immediately started digging a spiralling tunnel under Tsarichina in order to reach the mystical creature. During the digging the army didn’t bother to reinforce the tunnel at all but miraculously it managed to not collapse under its weight. Locals also reported noticing strange lights in the sky above the hole during the whole operation. The army dug around 150 meters long tunnel before stopping and filling the whole tunnel with concrete. Baba Vanga then said that they were only 4-5 meters away from reaching the capsule but thankfully they didn’t because that would have caused the End of the World.
Bastet’s Tomb
Another story really similar to the one about the Hole at Tsarichina is about the tomb of the Ancient Egyptian goddess Bastet. It is said to be located in the Strandzha Mountain right next to the border with Turkey. A Turkish treasure hunter visited Baba Vanga and asked her, if it was true that there was a tomb of the Ancient Egyptian goddess Bastet buried in Strandzha near the border with Turkey to which she replied with “yes”. She also said that in the tomb was an artefact with vast knowledge which could tell the history of mankind plus hundreds of years into the future. Like in the case with the Hole at Tsarichina an army once again came to dig but this time it was the Soviets. They started digging and then left leaving a big hole in the rock that can still be seen today. Some say they found the tomb and stole everything from it which was then shipped to Russia. Others believe that they failed to find the tomb. Around 2017- 2018 a group of archaeologists started using ground-penetrating scanners to search for the missing tomb and after some time searching the area they said they found it. They said on the scanners they found multiple chambers with many tunnel like exits and that in one of those chambers was some kind of an object. They made a video on TH-cam about their research and showed pictures from their scanners. They then said that they would begin digging next year but since then nothing has come out.
Rupite
At her elder years Baba Vanga decided to move to live at the locality of Rupite in Southwestern Bulgaria near the town of Petrich. The area has a lot of geothermal activity with multiple hot springs in which the water can reach around 83° C. Baba Vanga has said that she chose the area because of its high energy. She has also said that the area was once a volcano and above it was an ancient city of a highly technologically advanced civilisation populated by super-humans who wore clothing made of silver. But then the volcano erupted and the whole city was buried under lava.
“Holy Trinity” Cross Forest
In Southern Bulgaria on a hill deep in the remoteness of the Rodope Mountains is the “Holy Trinity” Cross Forest. It’s a complex with a monastery, a church, 12 chapels for each of the Apostles in Christianity, a fountain with holy water and a metal cross right at the top of the hill. According to the legend in Constantinople the Byzantines kept a big piece of the Holy Cross on which Jesus was crucified. When the Ottomans came and threatened to conquer Constantinople some Byzantine monks set on a journey to hide the piece of the Holy Cross in order to protect it. They decided to hide it in the remote and wild Rodope Mountains. It is believed that sick people who spend a night at the Cross Forest will miraculously heal and if you pray to God while hugging the metal cross at the top of the hill and ask God about things, He will grant your wishes.
Belintash
Very close to the “Holy Trinity” Cross Forest is the rock formation Belintash. It’s filled with human dug holes which were used for collecting rain water by the Thracians. The conspiracy theory is that those holes were used by aliens for navigation as a map and that there’s a hidden treasure beneath the rock formation.
Baba Vanga predicted Tsar Boris III’s death
Don’t exactly remember what she said to Tsar Boris III but it was something a long the lines of “Your rule has spread a lot (Bulgaria has become big) but it is time for you to return in a shell. Remember 28th August.” Tsar Boris III died on 28th August.
Peter Dunov
Apart from Baba Vanga there’s another really popular in Bulgaria mystic and that’s Peter Dunov. He has lots of followers which each year go to the Seven Rila Lakes to dance in a big ritual. He correctly predicted that the Romanians would return Southern Dobruja back to Bulgaria with the help of the “Reds” (commies). He believed that God favours ethnicities differently, some more than others, that some ethnicities are closer to God than others and that the ethnicities that are closest to God and God favours the most are more likely to go to heaven than the other ethnicities. According to Dunov Bulgarians were the closest to God followed by other Balkaners, then by other Eastern Europeans and so on. So basically according to Dunov Bulgarians are God’s chosen people instead of the Jews.
The Ten Lost Tribes of Israel
There’s a theory that the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel either migrated to the Balkans and mixed with the Thracians or migrated to Central Asia and mixed with the Bulgars in both cases resulting with Bulgarians being descended from the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel.
The Holy Grail
There’s a theory that the Holy Grail is somewhere in Bulgaria.
Ancient tunnels
Like the Romanians Bulgarians also have conspiracy theories with ancient tunnels. In the case of Bulgaria they were either built by the Thracians or the Ancient Macedonians and it is believed that Alexander the Great’s chariot is in one of those tunnels.
Black Sea Civilisation and the Great Flood
6000 years ago the Black Sea was twice smaller than it is today. Some believe that there was a highly populated for its time civilisation along the old Black Sea coast. The lowlands along the Black Sea had the highest population density in the world for its time. That civilisation was the birthplace of the Indo-European language family. Then through the Bosporus Strait water from the Mediterranean started pouring into the Black Sea destroying the civilisation along its coast in the process. The survivors migrated north towards modern day Ukraine and Russia and south towards Anatolia and the Caucuses. This might explain why ancient Anatolians and Armenians are genetically different from other Indo-Europeans even though the ancient Anatolians and Armenians were and in the case of the Armenians still are Indo-Europeans. This could also explain the Great Flood from the Bible.
Bulgarian nukes
Some believe that during the Cold War the Soviet Union stationed many nuclear weapons in secret bunkers throughout Bulgaria and after the collapse of communism the Soviets forgot to bring them back which is why Bulgaria now has fully operational nukes.
This video is the first one of yours' that showed in my feed less than one minute after uploading. 🥶
Tunnel theory exists in Northern Greece too. First time I heard it was when I was a tour guide in a cave, and a guy told me about "The other stuff, the ones we don't show to the tourists." When I asked for an explanation, I learned that Alexander the Great and his army had dug tunnels everywhere, below Macedonia, and they were popping up very fast wherever. Turns out, guy wasn't the only one believing it unfortunately, being "Common knowledge" around here 🙃
Damn greeks, stealing our Ancient Macedonian tunnels too...
αδερφέ πρώτη φορά το ακούω αυτό. Είχες κανένα μπλογκ και να μιλάει για αυτές τις σπηλιές;
As a Greek living in Macedonia this is the first time i hear of that
In Romania we got something similar about the Dacians "teleporting" by the use of tunnels xD
And now tell me what makes you believe it's false ?
To the Jesus part:
Jesus was born in a palace between Jerusalem and Betlehem, he went to some places like India, Hungary and Romania. He spent some time in Oradea where he met Mary Magdalene.
Jesus was 17 at this time and fell in love with her, 13 years later Jesus and Mary had a wedding at Kana.
Thanks for your time reading this ⚜️
My grandmother told me that pizza was invented in Romania and the KGB instigated the Romanian revolution because Ceausescu was getting too powerful
That second one makes no sense. How would overthrowing communism benefit the ussr in any way lmao
@@goldenfiberwheat238 it makes perfect sense for commie grandma. The revolution was set up by the KGB, so they can establish a new puppet dictator.
It was the cia, unironically.
Pita is the Romanian name for flat bread so of course the Italians stole the recepy
Most common here is that Yugoslavia was destroyed by the west because it became 2 powerfull in sport
In the Balkans we believe crazy stuff. But god damn... the Dacian thing seems legit crazy. And i thought North Macedonian nationalists were stupid...
😂😂😂😂
Nahh man, we true Dacians live on the moon, controlling everything you do
We Macedonians are great conspiracy theorists.
Did you know that the name Macedonia comes from India? Our ex president Gjorge Ivanov found out about it.
Did you also know that Ohrid is far ahead of everyone in the linguistic department? They can understand each-other with just saying "E". I mean they invented the Cyrillic, Latin, Greek, Egyptian and many other alphabets there thousands of years before anyone else started to use them.
Yeah it’s usually used by extremist political parties and their adherents. I love how dumb they are, looking at their facebook profiles, most of them aren’t very educated and take whatever daddy George Simion says or mommy Șoșoacă without thinking a bit
I live in romania and i never heard anything even close to that theory. But like most romanians i don't listen to what politicians say, especially someone like a mayor in cluj. It's not that i don't care about politics it's just that i cannot understand what they are saying. All i hear is bla bla bla. I think the guy just wanted some media attention and made this whole thing up
My favourite one is that there is a country that:
-Speaks bulgarian but tells Bulgarians they can't understand them because they speak "Macedonian"
-Have three different nationalist political parties that eachother claim a different nationality
-claim Alexander the great was their ancestor (Bulgarian) and not Greek despite his own belief, his name, his language, his religion, his heritage from Peloponnese, the fact he participated in the Olympics(only Greeks allowed back then) and that he literally began Hellenistic era himself
Some other conspiracy theories I've heard about in Romania:
1. Giant human-like skeletons (that were also radioactive, I think? Can't remember) found in some tunnels in the mountains, and the whole thing having been covered up by the Communist regime. (YT video about this is called: "URIAŞI de 10 metri descoperiţi în România | Tunelul secret unde au fost gasiti")
2. Underground tunnels built by the Dacians or aliens (idk what's up with us, Romanians, and tunnels. The Dacians must've been dwarves or something) beneath the black sea that links Romania, Bulgaria and Turkey. Apparently these ancient tunnels were used by animal hearders, in more recent time, in order to find better green pastures for their livestock to feed upon (doesn't make any f-ing sense), but they had to be careful when travelling said tunnels cause they could flood up very suddenly. It is said that one of the entrances of the tunnels is located in the old town part of the city of Constanta, which is the biggest city by the black sea, in Romania, and where I personally live. The entrance has been allegedly sealed off by the authorities by placing a giant slab of concrete on top of it so people can't enter anymore.
3. Oh, and Nikola Tesla is actually Romanian because we have a carpenting tool called 'Tesla' and I guess that's evidence enough.
4. Atlantis is at the bottom of the black sea. The black sea used to be a lake, until the great flood happened, and it became a sea, and Atlantis got swallowed by it.
Romanians are dwarves confirmed
Thomas Edison was Romanian because he stole all his ideas and Romanians... well, y'know.
We have a tool named teslo in Slovenia too. It is most likely Romanian language borrowed this word from Slavic, and Tesla may have been named from this tool or profession perhaps.
based retards lmao
build thousands of miles of tunnels for shepherd convenience hahahaha
@@HellbirdIV Hahahahah. Noice👍
there is a theory in bulgarian that japanese people are bulgarians that didn't move out from their island and that boris the third chose to enter ww2 just because of japan and not the german ultimatum
it also states that todor jivkov was a friend of hirohito and visited japan often with hiro telling him "good to see you after 2000 years"
Loved the video! Only thing that is strange is that Rtanj.
My favourite serb is back! history cant stop the amount of inclusion and respect i feel. Keep it up mate!! we need more people like you and we need to be like you!
I always found it funny how Alex Jones is considered an "extreme conspiracy theorist" in the west.
He is pretty tame compared to Balkan Conspiracy Theorists.
In Hungary he would have his own time slot on a mainstream News Channel xD
the eminescu theory about him discovering relativity is actually something that we learned about in school but during a special physics class . it is true that eminescu was not a scientist but his poetry is highly related to relativity and there are many videos on youtube made by scientists who analyse eminescu’s poetry and argue that the poet encapsulated relativity in his poems but without being able to use concrete scientific facts
As a romanian, never heard of dacian jesus...but it makes sense. We are all crazy
I did hear of it 😂 and he really was Romanian lol
I've heard some shit about how the Garden of Eden was in Dacia, but nothing about Jesus himself being Dacian.
@@Dominator150395 oooooohhh, good one. This is also a new one for me. Im probably not messing with the right crowd to be up to date with this delulu nonsense
@@Dominator150395 Pope John-Paul II stated in the service that Romania is the Garden of the Mother of God, but that Jesus would have been Dac seems to be an answer given to Hungarians who claim to be Jesus Hungarian.
Honestly, the second I saw this video I knew a lot of Romanian conspiracy theories would show up.
You forgot a thing about the Bucegi Mountains and the tunnel thing, people claim inside the tunnels there are or at least were giants, sometimes you hear the tunnels and giants theory intersect with Ceausescu's laser.
lmao
Most confusing conspiracy theory of this video is the idea that the Balkans are a peninsula.
Honestly would agree
Ceaușescu's lazer is true. I know this from the local bum who was a general in the Securitate. He was so devastated by the destruction of Soviet tanks that he he developed PTSD and was dismissed from the army. I know it's true because he told me this after I got him a bottle of Mona and gave him 2 cigarreres.

Dude I love conspiracies from other slavic/neighboring regions, they seems sooo familiar and yet...so alien haha. Love the vid!❤ ALSO Disciples 2 soundtrack?? The sound of my people
as a Hungarian i can safely say you know too much and you're going to be silenced on the 4th of February 2025
there's nothing you can do now.
I'm 3/4 Greek and 1/4 Swedish and I grew up in Sweden so I haven't been in contact with that many balkan conspiracies except through the internet and I had never heard of any of the ones discussed in the video. However, I do know a lot of balkan people through my parents (especially Serbs) and they sometimes say the most outlandish insane shit you could ever imagine. My godfather is from Surdulica in southern Serbia and he has the most wild and crazy ideas of any person I've ever met irl. When I was younger, I always thought I had a hard time understanding him because of his heavy Serbian accent. Turns out not to be the case, because other Serbs don't understand him when he's speaking Serbian either. He just likes to speak in riddles.
He once said that Alexander the Great wasn't Macedonian and he wasn't Greek, but of course: Serbian. He thinks Swedish people are an offshoot of an old Serbian tribe who lost contact with the mother nation and forgot about our shared brotherhood with the Serbs. How he fits the timelines together is anybody's guess but I've come to realize these beliefs are never tied to any piece of evidence.
He also believes in a secret global government consisting of a very few number of people (5-30 is my guess by the sound of his ramblings) who control everything and always favors the United States and NATO. My father and I often get into arguments with him over these things, and if it's not about history, it's usually politics (Kosovo, Ukraine, USA, etc). And for some reason he has a thing against France (he LOVES Corsica so maybe that's why). These type of conspiracies are often tied to things like antisemitism but no, he has no opinion on Jews at all and he doesn't think they're the ones controlling everything. He doesn't like Israel though, but then again, who does? lmao
And trust me - there is NO convincing this man of the facts. I don't even think he has heard any of these things from other people. I think he just sits around and philosophises about these things and comes up with whatever conclusion sounds the coolest to him. It's like he exists in a separate reality where there is no objective truth; whatever wild speculation he has about any given topic just manifests itself into reality and becomes his personal truth.
He also almost got killed once for picking a fight with some guys carrying an axe. Love that crazy dude.
This reminds me of a youtube comment I saw not too long ago of some guy claiming alexander the great being a Slav He said alexander's mom cuckolded his dad with a Slavic slave. No evidence of course, and doesn't make sense because at the time no written records or archeological records of Slavic contacts with Greece existed or that the Greeks even knew what a Slav was (yes it's possible that Slavic slaves made their way down to Greece, but their ethnicity wouldn't have been written about and they would have been conflated with Scythians). As someone from Turkey, I'll acknowledge that my people have their fair share of pseudohistory to stroke our egos, but the Balkans beat us on the "just randomly making shit up" department.
@@thenutella8846 Oh yes, Turks are often nationalistic maniacs but when it comes to nationalistic ego-stroking pseudohistoric nonsense, NOBODY beats the rest of the balkans 😂 Every balkan country is guilty of it but I personally think Macedonians, Albanians and Serbs are the worst offenders, especially when it comes to ancient and early medieval history. I don't even want to get into modern history because that's basically just one giant free-for-all genocidal spree from all sides 💀
To be fair the secret "global" government is definitely a thing, except I'm not sure how accurate that 5-30 people being behind it is. Here is a FACT(which anyone can find proof if they know how to search who owns companies) and not a conspiracy theory. ALL, yes you are reading it right ALL the media(as well as most of the mobile operators) in the Balkans/Eastern Europe is owned by companies that are owned by BlackRock and Vanguard.
I'm sure by now everyone should know who BlackRock and Vanguard are.
Every few years medias get sold to supposedly "new" owners, but when you look up the companies who bought them it's still the same companies behind them.
10:24 The History Channel just dropping the Ancient Romanians Series, it was all Romania 🇷🇴😢
Wow, i actually didnt know theory of Japanese cult in Montenegro was true and i live in Montenegro lol
The subtle heroes 3 music at 0:56 man.... really takes the vibe home
🤌 Chefs kiss
Well to be honest at the 15:17 mark you showed on screen professor Cristian Presura who is actualy extremely active in the science comunication field debunking a lot of conspiracy theories with science and rational thought.
Awesome video by the way!
