OK, you seem to have an error in your way of calculating years from BC and AD era, SPQR Historian. You have "corrected" the 1,000-year celebration in 248 to be 1,001 years. If Rome was founded in 753 BC and you subtract 753 years from that, you get 0. Then, you get to the year 248 by adding 248 years to that, and if you add the previous 753 years to that, you get 1,001 years. However, in calendar chronology, "year 0" does not exist. Immediately after the year 1 BC ends, the year 1 AD begins. So when adding the "BC years" to the "AD years", you have to subtract one year from the final result in order to get the correct amount of years. Thus, when the narrator in this video says "it had been 1,000 years since the city of Rome was founded", he is correct. The correction "1001 years" is not.
Philip the Arab was a warrior roman emperor and tried his best to lead the roman empire. It was too unstable and he did not live long like many emperors at the time. He was not the worst nor the best. Another roman emperor who was from Syria was Elagabalus. But i guess no countries from this region want to claim his legacy ! He wanted to be call a lady ! A roman emperor of Syrian origin !
I disagree! Ancient Romans oddly enough had many characteristics that HINT AT their more distant connection to the northern Peoples, which in their time they couldn't possibly have understood or comprehended BEING MERE BARBARIANS on the level of the STONE AGE in utter contrast to the high standard of classical Mediterranean culture then prevalent because many more migrations from northern peoples Millenia before had preceded ROMULUS and REMUS though blended with the typical Mediterranean Peoples of Today from Medieval Times.@@wewenang5167
The Severan dynasty was partially Arab "Septimius was not an Arab but a “Phoenician” from Leptis Magna; his wife, however, was descended from the line of Arab priest-kings that had ruled Emesa in Roman times for a long period after the Settlement of Pompey. It was Julia Domna who provided the Arab element to the Severi, directly as the wife of Septimius Severus and the mother of Caracalla, who was thus half- Arab" - Rome and the Arabs: A Prolegomenon to the Study of Byzantium and the Arabs
Phoenicians came from the Arabian peninsula according to Herodotus. This makes them Arab. They were famous for their red dye, the one found on the Qatari flag, where the snails that produce that rare dye almost exclusively live in the Arabian gulf
I cant get why Decius did not suggest he takes over from Philip instead of convincing him to stay then murdering him!! Unless Decius was good then and turned bad either way not nice I am happy Decius met a rather gruesome and ignominious in 251 serves him right. I do not like the fact Philips young son was killed that's why I condemn Decius. Form a Numismatic aspect Decius is good as he issued a fairly large amount of Gold Aurei in his brief reign they are far more common than the aurei of Philips reign which are very rare and cost a lot usually.
Shapur I changed the battle tactics of the Iranian army into more effective one in case of fighting Roman armies and was fighting an opponent that had battle equipments equal to his men if not better and armies that surpassed his own, in numbers Before he became king, he fought in his father's army in conquest of the Parthian empire at the battle of Hormozdgan and also in his father's raids in the Roman territories and at the battle of Ctesiphon 233 (and probably in the clash between two Roman and Sassanid armies before that which was also a Sassanid victory) all which were successful for the Sassanids After he became Shahanshah, he defeated 3 Roman emperors and even captured one of them personally and probably even killed one according to the Sassanid sources Based on one of the Sassanid tablets, Gordian III died in a Sassanid ambush at the battle of Misiche Each Roman army had between 60,000-70,000 men Although the only information we have about Shapur's numbers is at the battle of Edessa in which he had 40,000 men It's probably safe to assume Romans were outnumbering Shapur 2-1 in his battles He won the battle of Misiche (60,000 Romans), battle of Barbalissos (60,000 Romans), battle of Edessa (70,000 Romans) and plundered 36 Roman cities which the two most known and famous ones are siege of Antioch 253 and siege of Dura Europos 256 After his clash with Odaenathus, Shapur raided eastern parts of Odaenathus kingdom and even won against him at the battle of Ctesiphon 263
@@ibnismail3386 You mean Odaenathus ?

The Nabateans helped Rome in there overthrow of cleopatra’s Egypt, and herod the great (who was a nabatean idumean) and his dynasty, helped establish roman vassalage control in Palestine and southern Lebanon. The Nabateans were also enemies of the greek Seleucid’s of Syria, and both of them vied for control of Damascus and southern Syria. But i have no idea if the Nabateans played a role in the wars between the Romans and the Seleucid’s (and by that, i mean as allies of Rome).
not really a good argument since there are records of arabs having greek (in the safaitic corpus) and persian (qabūs ibn al-mundhir) names, and philip is a greek name.
Wow, you mix up a lot of inaccurate historic nonsense together.. The Persian King, Shapur I (son of Ardeshir) Captured and arrested both Roman emperors, Philip the Arab and Valerian. There were some 7 Roman emperors defeated by Persians.
There was no Arab world at that time 😂, Only Arabia 🇸🇦. and still its the only Arab place, others are just Arabic-Speakers because of the Arab conquests 🇸🇦🇸🇦🏴🇸🇦🏴🇸🇦🕋🕋🥷🏼
Honestly I don't see why the ancient Arab world would have found Phillip's reign relevant considering the way things were back then. First of all, culture was above ethnicity for the majority of countries, specially Rome and the Arab semi-nomadic states in the frontier. For the Arabs he would have probably been another Roman, or an Arab made be one of them. Then for a Roman, he was more than a romanized Arab, a romanized provincial. So we're talking about someone seen equally to Cicero (who was a provincial, back then considered not roman enough if Roman even). Furthermore, if arabs considered him of his own, he would have been considered one of a certain cultural/regional group. Or one of an specific tribe which settled in Aramaic lands. Which comes to the next issue, which is that more than likely he was part Aramean. And since it was an Aramean region, most arabs unknowingly would have thought he was an Aramean. Like concepts as greater cultural groups such as Germanic, Arab, Slav or Anatolian weren't a thing until later centuries and some into modern times. A Goth considered Burgundians as "others" (even though both being East Germanic peoples) and only did they considered Gaepids (and possibly Herulians and Scirians) as "distant relatives". Though it would have been very important for his region which may have lead to eventually the creation of the Palmyrene empire. For contrary to what is described in the sources from the time period. They probably would have seen themselves as true Romans taking control of the east and seceding from the larger empire. Rather than a new foreigner power rising up against Rome, no matter how Aurelian would have wanted to brand it like. That being said, this being relevant to the Arabs of the Islamic jihadist conquest? Doubtful. They were from the middle and south. The north of Arabia was Christian by that point. If anything it could have made local Christian Arabs feel more identified with Rome and envigorated to fight the Islamic foreign invaders. For they felt as Roman as any ever since, Philip the Arab. Modernly though, yeah, I do see why Syrians over all would be proud of him.
Philip I, also known as Philip the Arab, was born to a Roman family in the city of Philippopolis in Arabia Petraea (modern Shahba, Syria). Despite his nickname, he was not an Arab: the moniker derived from his having been born in the Roman province of Arabia Petraea, in the district of Trachonitis which had previously formed part of Roman Syria Palaestina. His full name was Marcus Julius Philippus. He was the son of Julius Marinus, a Roman citizen whose name indicates membership in the gens Julia (a family of Latin origin from Alba Longa). His mother is unknown. His brother was the praetorian prefect Gaius Julius Priscus.
He was born in Arabia Felix, Shehba in Felix not Petrea. Arabs became the Roman citizenship during the Severan era. There was no documentation of Italians settling in Provincia Arabia. Yes he was an Arab Roman citizen. He was not the only Arab emperor though
@@badgoy534 He was not an Arab, his father was already a Roman citizen before the Edict of Caracalla, outside Rome, citizenship was restricted to Roman coloniae. If someone has a Latin name (like Philips father) linked to a particular gens, then they ought to be assumed to belong to that family. It is up to someone to demonstrate the contrary (i.e., that it was passed down through adoption or adopted later in life). There are several instances in which ancient Roman sources explicitly say that a particular person had adopted a name (and therefore did not belong by origin to that gens); but in the absence of such an explicit statement, the belonging must be assumed.

But an emperor was called to pratice and respect roman national religion (based on the capituline triad, jupiter, janus and juno) and christians like the jews would have never praticed these rituals. The emperor was even pontifex maximus, the chief of religion. No one in 247 ad with the persecutions against the christians that sometime in some province did rose up again by some provincial governor, would have accepted a Christian emperor. But yes he was very tollerant about christians and probably had even several christians in his entourage

He could be killed for that. Indeed he partecipated in all the pagan ceremonies of Rome, like the ludi millenaria, and others. In no way a christian or a jew would have done that.

Then, you get to the year 248 by adding 248 years to that, and if you add the previous 753 years to that, you get 1,001 years.
However, in calendar chronology, "year 0" does not exist. Immediately after the year 1 BC ends, the year 1 AD begins. So when adding the "BC years" to the "AD years", you have to subtract one year from the final result in order to get the correct amount of years. Thus, when the narrator in this video says "it had been 1,000 years since the city of Rome was founded", he is correct. The correction "1001 years" is not.
Yo, your voice super familiar.
It’s fascinating history fans disregard byzantines as Romans because they were too “Greek” but a guy who is literally Arab and no one bats an eye.
Arabs became Roman citizens during the severan era
Philip the Arab was a warrior roman emperor and tried his best to lead the roman empire.
It was too unstable and he did not live long like many emperors at the time.
He was not the worst nor the best.
Another roman emperor who was from Syria was Elagabalus.
But i guess no countries from this region want to claim his legacy !
He wanted to be call a lady ! A roman emperor of Syrian origin !
Will the Actor RYAN PHILLPE get to portray PHILIP THE ARAB in a future film? he closely resembles Him!
RYAN LOOK TOO WESTERN/SCANDINAVIAN, NEED SOMEONE WITH MORE SOUTHERN EUROPEAN FACE.
I disagree! Ancient Romans oddly enough had many characteristics that HINT AT their more distant connection to the northern Peoples, which in their time they couldn't possibly have understood or comprehended BEING MERE BARBARIANS on the level of the STONE AGE in utter contrast to the high standard of classical Mediterranean culture then prevalent because many more migrations from northern peoples Millenia before had preceded ROMULUS and REMUS though blended with the typical Mediterranean Peoples of Today from Medieval Times.@@wewenang5167
Was his son crowned as Emperor?
The Severan dynasty was partially Arab
"Septimius was not an Arab but a “Phoenician” from Leptis Magna; his wife, however, was descended from the line of Arab priest-kings that had ruled Emesa in Roman times for a long period after the Settlement of Pompey. It was Julia Domna who provided the Arab element to the Severi, directly as the wife of Septimius Severus and the mother of Caracalla, who was thus half- Arab"
- Rome and the Arabs: A Prolegomenon to the Study of Byzantium and the Arabs
Phoenician didn't even a thing in the last 2000 years
Water is Water
Zenobia is an earlier ancestor from the "Septimus" Arab branch
Phoenicians came from the Arabian peninsula according to Herodotus. This makes them Arab. They were famous for their red dye, the one found on the Qatari flag, where the snails that produce that rare dye almost exclusively live in the Arabian gulf

I cant get why Decius did not suggest he takes over from Philip instead of convincing him to stay then murdering him!!
Unless Decius was good then and turned bad either way not nice I am happy Decius met a rather gruesome and ignominious in 251 serves him right. I do not like the fact Philips young son was killed that's why I condemn Decius. Form a Numismatic aspect Decius is good as he issued a fairly large amount of Gold Aurei in his brief reign they are far more common than the aurei of Philips reign which are very rare and cost a lot usually.

Shapur I changed the battle tactics of the Iranian army into more effective one in case of fighting Roman armies and was fighting an opponent that had battle equipments equal to his men if not better and armies that surpassed his own, in numbers
Before he became king, he fought in his father's army in conquest of the Parthian empire at the battle of Hormozdgan and also in his father's raids in the Roman territories and at the battle of Ctesiphon 233 (and probably in the clash between two Roman and Sassanid armies before that which was also a Sassanid victory) all which were successful for the Sassanids
After he became Shahanshah, he defeated 3 Roman emperors and even captured one of them personally and probably even killed one according to the Sassanid sources
Based on one of the Sassanid tablets, Gordian III died in a Sassanid ambush at the battle of Misiche
Each Roman army had between 60,000-70,000 men
Although the only information we have about Shapur's numbers is at the battle of Edessa in which he had 40,000 men
It's probably safe to assume Romans were outnumbering Shapur 2-1 in his battles
He won the battle of Misiche (60,000 Romans), battle of Barbalissos (60,000 Romans), battle of Edessa (70,000 Romans) and plundered 36 Roman cities which the two most known and famous ones are siege of Antioch 253 and siege of Dura Europos 256
After his clash with Odaenathus, Shapur raided eastern parts of Odaenathus kingdom and even won against him at the battle of Ctesiphon 263
What? Odhaina defeated Shapur, things ended up for Odaina favor.
@@ibnismail3386 You mean Odaenathus ?
It's said that he defeated Shapur on his way back to the Sassanid borders in an ambush BUT it's also reported that Shapur plundered the eastern parts of Odaenathus kingdom RIGHT AFTER that clash in the same year on his way back
If he was indeed defeated by Odaenathus, and if Odaenathus was chasing him and his supposedly defeated army, how and why did Shapur, an experienced military commander, who could clearly tell when to back off and when to stay and fight (given that he didn't leave garrisons in the plundered Roman cities since he knew his limit), took/wasted his time raiding and besieging towns and cities of a whole region with a Roman army on his tail ?
No one would have risked such a thing because the results would have been catastrophic had the enemy army caught up with them
It's also reported that Odaenathus marched to Ctesiphon twice but failed to conquer/sack it with the most known one being the battle of Ctesiphon 263 in which Shapur won and Odaenathus along with his army was repelled

This somewhat proves that they had a great relationship with the Arab tribes, such as the Nabataeans and others
th-cam.com/video/7LZqV4CUQQM/w-d-xo.html
The Nabateans helped Rome in there overthrow of cleopatra’s Egypt, and herod the great (who was a nabatean idumean) and his dynasty, helped establish roman vassalage control in Palestine and southern Lebanon.
The Nabateans were also enemies of the greek Seleucid’s of Syria, and both of them vied for control of Damascus and southern Syria.
But i have no idea if the Nabateans played a role in the wars between the Romans and the Seleucid’s (and by that, i mean as allies of Rome).
ARAMAIC* ❤
He was called the arab not the aramean.
Arameans don’t have a history, there just subjects of other peoples.
Arameans have no history.
Philip is not arab name
Philip is a Syriac Christian, not an Arab. Arabs are only in the desert... .
not really a good argument since there are records of arabs having greek (in the safaitic corpus) and persian (qabūs ibn al-mundhir) names,
and philip is a greek name.
Wow, you mix up a lot of inaccurate historic nonsense together.. The Persian King, Shapur I (son of Ardeshir) Captured and arrested both Roman emperors, Philip the Arab and Valerian. There were some 7 Roman emperors defeated by Persians.
Philip wasn't captured in the same dramatic fashion as Valerian, Shapur I did confront him during military engagements.
not even the first roman-arab emperor.

I am Germanic, but most Roman Empire is in Arab World. I don't identify with it because we are superior and had conquered Queer Mediterranean Men 😂.
There was no Arab world at that time 😂, Only Arabia 🇸🇦.
and still its the only Arab place, others are just Arabic-Speakers because of the Arab conquests 🇸🇦🇸🇦🏴🇸🇦🏴🇸🇦🕋🕋🥷🏼
but true, its a fish empire 🐟😂😂
Honestly I don't see why the ancient Arab world would have found Phillip's reign relevant considering the way things were back then.
First of all, culture was above ethnicity for the majority of countries, specially Rome and the Arab semi-nomadic states in the frontier.
For the Arabs he would have probably been another Roman, or an Arab made be one of them.
Then for a Roman, he was more than a romanized Arab, a romanized provincial. So we're talking about someone seen equally to Cicero (who was a provincial, back then considered not roman enough if Roman even).
Furthermore, if arabs considered him of his own, he would have been considered one of a certain cultural/regional group. Or one of an specific tribe which settled in Aramaic lands.
Which comes to the next issue, which is that more than likely he was part Aramean. And since it was an Aramean region, most arabs unknowingly would have thought he was an Aramean.
Like concepts as greater cultural groups such as Germanic, Arab, Slav or Anatolian weren't a thing until later centuries and some into modern times.
A Goth considered Burgundians as "others" (even though both being East Germanic peoples) and only did they considered Gaepids (and possibly Herulians and Scirians) as "distant relatives".
Though it would have been very important for his region which may have lead to eventually the creation of the Palmyrene empire. For contrary to what is described in the sources from the time period. They probably would have seen themselves as true Romans taking control of the east and seceding from the larger empire. Rather than a new foreigner power rising up against Rome, no matter how Aurelian would have wanted to brand it like.
That being said, this being relevant to the Arabs of the Islamic jihadist conquest? Doubtful. They were from the middle and south. The north of Arabia was Christian by that point.
If anything it could have made local Christian Arabs feel more identified with Rome and envigorated to fight the Islamic foreign invaders. For they felt as Roman as any ever since, Philip the Arab.
Modernly though, yeah, I do see why Syrians over all would be proud of him.
No, culture was not above ethnicity for Arabs.
Philip I, also known as Philip the Arab, was born to a Roman family in the city of Philippopolis in Arabia Petraea (modern Shahba, Syria). Despite his nickname, he was not an Arab: the moniker derived from his having been born in the Roman province of Arabia Petraea, in the district of Trachonitis which had previously formed part of Roman Syria Palaestina. His full name was Marcus Julius Philippus. He was the son of Julius Marinus, a Roman citizen whose name indicates membership in the gens Julia (a family of Latin origin from Alba Longa). His mother is unknown. His brother was the praetorian prefect Gaius Julius Priscus.
He was born in Arabia Felix, Shehba in Felix not Petrea. Arabs became the Roman citizenship during the Severan era. There was no documentation of Italians settling in Provincia Arabia. Yes he was an Arab Roman citizen. He was not the only Arab emperor though
@@badgoy534 He was not an Arab, his father was already a Roman citizen before the Edict of Caracalla, outside Rome, citizenship was restricted to Roman coloniae. If someone has a Latin name (like Philips father) linked to a particular gens, then they ought to be assumed to belong to that family. It is up to someone to demonstrate the contrary (i.e., that it was passed down through adoption or adopted later in life). There are several instances in which ancient Roman sources explicitly say that a particular person had adopted a name (and therefore did not belong by origin to that gens); but in the absence of such an explicit statement, the belonging must be assumed.
@@Lion718 his people were naturalized during the reign of Septimius Severus Arabicus.
Fun fact: Caracalla means the Fortress of GOD in Arabic, he is the son of the Arab empress Augusta Julia Domna of Emessa
He was half arab
@@goyimkiller69Full Arab, his mother was also most probably Arab. Arabs don’t marry off their women to non-Arabs. This was one reason why Arabs in Iraq rebelled against the Sassanids just before Islam

Arabs did not exist within Roman territory until after the 5th Century when Saracen raiders began invading Mesopotamia and Arabia Petra. There were Saracen auxiliaries, but none of them were Roman citizens, nor would they have been inducted into the Praetorian Guard due to the ominous nature of their color and culture, as dictated by Septimius Severus, who was superstitious of anyone with foreign looks.

As an historian and archeologist i can state for sure that the comment section is an epic poem of demential and fantahistoric things, merged with modern ultranationalistic and ethnic claims. Pater jupiter please save me. Enjoy history for what it is guys, not for what you would it was. You have both right and wrong at the same time. And no probably he wasn't a Christian, but being from the eastern provinces he was very tollerant about christians and probably had even christian friends at court, even some coincillor or advisor too, possibly. But an emperor was called to pratice and respect roman national religion (based on the capituline triad, jupiter, janus and juno) and christians like the jews would have never praticed these rituals. The emperor was even pontifex maximus, the chief of religion. No one in 247 ad with the persecutions against the christians that sometime in some province did rose up again by some provincial governor, would have accepted a Christian emperor. But yes he was very tollerant about christians and probably had even several christians in his entourage
Philip is a Greek name that is sacred to Christians. He was not Arab. Arabs are Muslims and their names are not like that. Philip is a Roman Christian. ...
@@bjgkjhvvxxthe christians at the time was discriminated, they would never accept a christian emperor in the early mid 3rd century ad. As i sad, being from middle east (a Roman Citizen son of Roman Citizen from the equestrian class, you should not Imagine of a beduin from the desert but a hellenized Roman middle eastern Citizen from the province of Arabia petreia, modern Syria i guess, like Zenobia and the palmyrene pratically, but a Little bit more romanized since he was prefect of the pretorius, an High charge, if you was not enough romanized, you couldnt be that, think to elagabalus that entered rome in eastern clothes and was blamed for that by the senators, giulia domna knew that and Tried to convince the boy to wear roman clothes but he was stubborn, and the result was to be blamed by the pleb and the nobles of Rome, the first brick for his assassination), so yes, he was from the east, hellenized, of middle eastern origin, but he was a roman citizen, tollerant probably towars christians, but in no way he could say openly i m christian. He could be killed for that. Indeed he partecipated in all the pagan ceremonies of Rome, like the ludi millenaria, and others. In no way a christian or a jew would have done that. It's like to ask to a muslim to pratice ancient Arab paganism. A blasphemy. Those Who Say Philip was christian, are completely wrong. He did tollerate christians. That Is diverse. But he did pratice publicly Roman traditional religion.
