America did not exist until Europeans created it.
dM what
The Americas (just called America) is a landmass between Europe and Asia and it separates the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. We arent talking about the United States, were talking about the continents of North and South America.
Any found land: European nation: Hello, may I come in
Where is the real map of the native americans tribes in both americas before the europeans killed 110 millions of them... Do you even know people that muslims discovered both americas before the europeans, in Colombos memories he mentioned that he met muslims in cuba, other muslim tribes were in suriname.... Read history well guys. In reality we entered the americas in peace, but you entered nd killed everyone there. Columos and Vasco de gama committed one of the scariest and ugliest crimes in history
Native people: *exist*
Europeans: "I'm gonna pretend i didn't see that"
Don't blame Europeans, same thing happened to natives there. Blame the Germans. Or really, blame a few of the Germanic tribes.
But they defeated the Romans before that who were expanding like mad, so, blame the Caesars.
No... blame the Etruscans.
hi kye my name is kye
The native people of various European countries also got rocked lol blame the barbarian and Vikings for their raids and stuff.
@@kensebego199 Also the muslim invasions.
Kye Actually they’re from Asia. There’s no such thing as native Americans. Everyone is from the old world.
Also they were cannibals and human sacrificers. Everything turned out well.
It love how the unknown parts of the world were blacked out at the beginning, illustrating how people of that time knew so little about the world around them. Great job!
Gives me eu4 vibes
yeah then they were whited by their colonists ahahaha
Represents the people living there.
The thing is that while the blacked out areas were unknown to Europe there was more circumstancial information around. For example it was known that Africa can be circumnavigated (Egyptian and Roman sources made references to it) as the Egyptians have circumnavigated Africa millenia earlier.
Furthermore there has been speculation about the existence of major land masses to the south (further south than Africa) and to the west.
Arabic sources also had further information about inland Africa and he African west coast.
There were Jewish and Christian settlements by in Ethiopia by the 3rd A.D century and Ethiopian kingdoms were speaking Greek and minting coins with Greek script by the 3rd century B.C.
It's the medieval "European" point of view... (at the beginning of the video, the geographic knowledge that Euroasian cultures had) 😅 the rest of humankind (I guess) "knew" their own territories where they lived... I want to mean that the itself concept of "discovering new lands" shows how it's only for the foreign visitors (mainly europeans), not for the peoples who live there...
NO OFFENSE OR CRITIC INTENTIONS on me, please 😅👍
Iberia didn't simply look for another way to india for nothing. They did it because the Ottoman Empire banned them from the spice trade. They were cut off from the Silk Road they used for centuries.
And they wanted to expand and had no more land to conquer in Iberia

Great work except...
Columbus indeed figured it out. On his third voyage, he discovered the mouth of the Orinoco River. This river system is the world's third largest by volume, far exceeding anything in Europe.
This much fresh water could ONLY be coming from a continent. No mere island could produce it.
Didn't he just assume it was Asia though?
He thought he was in India....
@@walugra847 No worries about late replies, quality over timeliness!
And yeah, to my very limited knowledge of his writings, he never stated that it was a whole new area of the world... but... he did realize that it was a massive continent ("a mighty continent which was hitherto unknown"). I think he probably thought that there was some completely unknown continent south of China or India the same way that Africa was south of Europe, making the Red Sea a connecting Sea between possibly two large Mediterranean type seas.
When he was at Hispaniola and the other islands, he very well may have thought he was in the Spice Islands (vaguely Indonesia/Philippines) but when he was exploring the coast of South America, my GUESS is that he thought it was a completely unheard-of land south of Asia (since maps had LONG since included lands like China, India, and Southeast Asia... at least in terms of concepts. Going all the way back to the Ancient Greeks, there was contact between Europe and India. But no one had ever heard of a massive new continent SOUTH of Asia (because there wasn't one there). So... again, to my limited understanding, that's what Columbus likely died believing he had discovered.

What happened to the anatolian cultures, the mesopotamians, the egyptians and even the persian cultures once Islam arrived?

Killing people, that's history, no one enters a place with peace, unless if it is abandonated, and you can't seriously speak abou killing millions of people when Islam killed like 3 or 4 times more in North Africa, once again, history, people back then did it for they're country, like nowadays we would also go for a War for our countries
@Luis Fernando Corrales Ramirez He probably right, Muslims came first not Colombus,Spain is overrated piece of crap country.
@@slalteredmusic8506 No he wasn't, that whole theory was based on one line of text from Columbuses memoir, a line mind you that was almost certainly metaphorical.
The Queen of Castilia (Spain), Isabel la Catolica, declared the new lands and their populations inhabitants of the kingdom. You couldn't take them like slaves. It is writte in her testament for example. Carlos I, other king from Spain write a lot of laws in favor of the new people.
True, however a cast system was formed in the colonies which didn't allow natives or people of mixed race (or even full blooded spanish born in America) to hold positions of power or to have the same rights as other Spaniards. That didn't happened in the Roman empire, as we know of powerful greeks, Punics, assyrians and others in Rome holding position of power (even some emperors) and having full rights of roman citizenship. Moreover, the romans were very tolerant of other's religions, while the Spanish were not since the inquisition found its way to the new world, leading to many religiosly motivated deaths. In this sense, comparing the two empires that way is a bit misleading and outright false.
Can either of you provide evidence for your claims?

Laws of Burgos, 1512.
The scope of implementation of the Laws of Burgos began with the island of Hispaniola, to later extend to the islands of Puerto Rico and Jamaica. Later they would be applied on the mainland (current Venezuela) at the initiative of Fray Pedro de Córdoba.
Although the ordinances authorized and legalized the practice of the distribution of Indians entrusted to the Spanish colonizers at the rate of a minimum of 40 and a maximum of 150 individuals, they strove to establish a thorough regulation of the regime of work, wages, food, housing, hygiene and care of the Indians with a protective, highly protective and humanitarian sense.
The laws strictly prohibited encomenderos from applying any punishment to the Indians, which was reserved for the visitors established in each town and in charge of the meticulous compliance with the laws. Pregnant women over four months old were exempt from work.
This set of protective laws that the crown of Spain dictated towards the natives was an important advance and also a precedent for labor law that was consolidated only globally in the 20th century.
@Jack well, there was ferocious warriors in South America too. Just learn about the Mapuches in Chile, who led a war against Spain that lasted about 300 years. And still are a big group fighting the Chilean government.
Except that they aren't indians

Wow so that's why Brazil speaks Portuguese, never knew that it was because of the meridian line.
Fun fact, it is said that the meridian was set that far away precisely to include part of Brazil, as the land had been supposedly already discovered but kept in secret. Vasco da Gama made the initial voyage in 1498 to India, but on its way diverted very close to the coast of Brazil. That year the treaty of Tordesillas is signed. Pedro Álvares Cabral was the captain who officially discovered Brazil in 1500, while going to India. Unlike Gama, Cabral was not as recognized and rewarded by the king. This makes historians believe that:
- Gama had already discovered Brazil, but the discovery was kept secret;
- the treaty was signed after this, to ensure it would include some land east of the meridian;
I guess we will never know for sure, but I like to believe there was something with those decisions;)
@@SusaVile bartolomeu problably had discovered brasil while find a route trough africa
The fact that Brazil speaks Portuguese is not just because of the tordesilias treaty. The portuguese territories that currenctly is Brazil is much bigger than the territories that was supposed to belong to Portugal based on the tordesilias treaty.
Portugal expanded their dominion due the exploration of the Bandeirantes, which were a groups of portugueses explorers that was looking for gold, silver and diamonds. Most of the bandeirantes were Jewish escaping from inquisition.
@@PVLameira The bandeirantes weren't portuguese, their major composition were portuguese descendents a.k.a race-mixed, which means that they're Brazilians.
Portugal and Brazil speak the same but they write different and have different cuss words same with Colombia Venezuela and Ecuador with Spain

Chile:Argentina back down I get all of it
Argentina : No lol
I believe originally Chile intended to claim the rest of the Patagonia, but it was at war with Peru and Bolivia in what is known as the War of the Pacific, which Chile ended up winning land from Bolivia's coast (Antofagasta) and Peru (Arica y Parinacota and Tarapaca), and thus why most of the Atacama Desert is in Chile today, and why a lot of Peruvians and Bolivians hold resentment for Chile (Bolivians cry for their sea, since they are now a landlocked country, which originally Paraguay was the only landlocked country in South America. Aside from the land loss, Peruvians hate it when Chileans claim the pisco and the ceviche are from Chile). In the meantime, Argentina seized the opportunity to take the unclaimed territories in the Patagonia, as Chile was occupied with a war in the north. The race of conquest for the Patagonia was thus in Argentina's upper hand, which is why it was able to take the majority of the Patagonia (which is east of the Andes), while Chile only claimed the Pacific side (west of the Andes), which is at least luscious and green as the east side of the Patagonia experiences a rain shadow effect becoming a cold desert. Argentina was also at a geographical advantage, as Chileans would have to cross the Andes in order to claim the greater east side of the Patagonia, while Argentina would only have to cross the flat grasslands of the Pampas to encounter Patagonian landscape.
Well thank to the north of chile we have atacama desert a place we can develop renewable enery from the sun and also the cober and other mineral mines
@@lissandrafreljord7913 as a Chilean, I have been taught that the Patagonia was passed down to rgentina during the Pacific War. Basically, Argentina threatened Chile into opening a new front if they don't give the Patagonia, to which Chile had to say yes.
Truth is I'm not sure about this because although every map and source tells this, it may be the narrative of the state towards the conflict.

I feel like colonization was one of the more chaotic parts of history, and I think it was because a lot was happening in a short period of time. Like, if you imagine letting events play out repeatedly in different timelines, you would see huge differences on results. What if Columbus landed in Brazil or North America? What if Europeans didn't even learn about the Americas for a much longer time?
I think the craziest thing is the naming. It's so arbitrary yet names feel so important because how connected they are to identity.
Zekholgai It would also be interesting to see any patterns in all those other timelines, if it was purely a coincidence that it was discovered at that moment and it could just as well have been discovered by Romans or Phoenicians millennia earlier.
It was a terrible time and the only reason the Europeans succeeded in stealing everything is due to the sickness they brought, becuase they are nasty people
Austin Gragg No, they had technology on their side and many of the natives hated each other so much more that they joined the europeans.

Leif Erikson
*discovered America

Christopher Colombus
*got lost in the way to Asia
*contradicted Erathostenes' measures
*'everyone' credits him
Leif Erikson never made it back to tell the news. As most vikings explorers were banned convicts they were not even allowed to come back.
Kolafloro Columbus was using a popular map of the world at the time for his calculations. It is also to say he never knew he discovered a new continent because in his journals he says that he must have discovered new lands because the islands he lands on where not on the map he was following.
One thing is to have a very reduced contact in the north and other thing is to have direct contact and also stablish colonies there.
Leif Erikson set up a lumber camp for 1 year in America, after which it was abandoned.
Christopher Columbus opened up both halves of the world to each other and helped jumpstart further European incursions into the Americas.
There's a reason he's credited for discovering America and why people consider his discovery to be more significant.

Thus it not only states that no one knew about the Americas, but the vast majority of Africa was also unknown to the world. Truly a great work with the animation in the video
"vast majority of Africa was also unknown to the world" don't agree with that. They were unknown for Europeans(also to far east asia), but not to whole world.
@Yiğitcan Karadeniz
yeah. that's what i'm saying. "whole world"
@@yigitcankaradeniz362 thats the point bro the whoolle word at the time was europeans and some asians
I bet Portugal 🇵🇹 and other countries regretted not financing Christopher’s voyage! 😅
This video deserves more than what ever it is getting, this is incredible
A widespread knowledge is that Columbus died without knowing he reached a new continent.
But:
In Columbus Journal of the Third Voyage (1498) it is written:
"I have come to believe that this is a mighty continent which was hitherto unknown. I am greatly supported in this view by reason of this great river, and by this sea which is fresh."
Thank god not only I know of that entry
Your channel deserve so many more subs. Your videos are quality man. Keep going
*new disease wipes out America*
Europe: "It's free real estate"
What do you have to say now... If yall die we will conquer everything and steal the little you have.

He was justifying Portugal and Spain aren't shitholes, mate, understand something before replying.
Terrific video. Your visual design choices. Especially leaving unknown territories in black, were especially illuminating (so to speak).
I loved how you slowly filled in the map as it was explored. It really set the video apart for me. Great job
It's already been explored, lol.
You should mention that one of the main driving forces for the western expansion is the fact that the Ottoman Empire was in near-complete control of Eastern Med, Middle-East and the trade routes (land and sea) in collaboration with its allies like Egypt. It is an important parameter not to be left out. That was also the reason for the south-of-Africa route to India.
Nahl he did good without adding all that crap u just said it’s get confusing when u start saying at that crap
Great video! Thanks. One-point that was overlooked, Amerigo Vespucci discovered mainland America in 1497. Christopher Columbus discovered the Caribbean, then later traveled to mainland after hearing about Vespucci's discoveries. This is why the Spanish crown named the Americas after Vespucci.
The Spanish empire in the Americas doesn't end until 1898 during the Spanish-American war
That's correct. That's when the U.S. takes control of Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines.
👌
BARBATUS 89 If the Spanish thought that they wouldn’t have raped, murdered and stole from them. How dumb are you boy?
@@user-yu8vm6ru3d That's completely irrelevant, Europeans raped, killed and stole from each other as well, regardless of whether they where "God's children" or not. Same thing with any ethnic or religious groups.
The difference that Barbatus is pointing out is that Spaniards had little to no issue in interbreeding with Native Americans while U.S. Americans, British and French settlers frowned upon such action. This is reflected in the demographics of each nation. Latin America being mostly made up of Mestizos and Castizos while Canada and the U.S.A. are mostly made up of Whites.
You seem to know little of the topic so I wouldn't go around asking other people how dumb they are if you are completely ignorant of it.
@@user-yu8vm6ru3d That's not true. Spain built America.
This was the most perfect explanation in a few minutes of the New World exploration I have ever seen in my life. BRAVO!!!
4:08 - The no shit land
LMAOOO💀😂💀💀
City of gold
As a mexican, i can confirm Tenochtitlan was a no shit land, Unlike europeans, who used to shit in their own streets.
xd
@@samuell3bara888 Lol mexican is talking, you live in 3rd world garbage country with no rules and laws
Amazing ! Really felt so part of it.
Good thing this is in my recommendations because I’m learning about this right know
Edit: the Aztecs was my favorite thing to learn in my class
Tzompantli.
Mexico City is his descendant
Really great map! However, you forgot to include California into the highlighted area for New Spain, the Spaniards officially settled "Alta California" in 1776, with the installment of the the Mission of San Diego de Alcala, with the colony extending all the way up to the San Francisco Bay area. Also, the Arizona region laid claim to Spain around the 1770s as well, with Juan Bautista De Anza officially laying claim Arizona to the Viceroy of New Spain.
@Totum Revolutum Hence the black legend as well.
Spain: Has to search for land
Portugal: Its free real estate lol
Un tonto a escrito esso arriba y como te gustan las tonterias, catapum.........
I really like the map and the shadows, makes the video look even cooler
Actually, Columbus did know it was a new world describing it as a "hitherto unknown continent".
Shhhhh we're supposed to villify COlumbus and shun his day and forget that his crew left behind was murdered kind of like the Lost Colony of Roanoke. And please please please don't bring up the bog bodies in Florida: peopleofonefire.com/the-mysterious-dna-of-the-windover-pond-bodies.html
Your use of black is brilliant . i am sending this link to all my students in Japan .
BUT 2 minor technicalities
4:36 you say Magellan was seeking a rout around the world. In fact he only wanted to find a western rout to Asia -- fulfilling Columbus's objective. He intended to reverse trace his voyage back to spain. it was only after they discovered the futility of their dangerous way though the straits and the expanse of the pacific that his crew decided ( after the filipinos killed him) on the safer easier way of continuing westward to get home
8:25 i would put western TX border at independence-time at the Nueces River. and wait til the Mex.Am. war treaty ot 1848 to use the Rio Seco -- i mean Rio Grande -- 8:32

THANKYOU
.
send them some stuff on the nanjing masacre aswell.
I don't usually comment on videos but I felt the need to on this one.
Great job. This was so clear and easy to understand.
Yeah, totally agree
Excellent video, well done!
Wow this was great!
The perfect way to visualize it!!!!
Same phenomenon will happen but this time in space.. We will search new planets and new columbus will go on risky travels...
But this time the aliens will enslave us
the columbus will probably be an AI system
Space is a hoax it's only a way for countrys to tell each other they have the best technology and weapons
I love how Spain and Portugal literally decided how they would split the world between themselves
Portugal and Spain "Literally" decided anything... It was the pope. Who passed months inside caravels to discover the places, and died trying? Who paid for the travels? the others just took advantage of portuguese and spanish efforts. But nice try!
At the Berlin conference 400 years later Portugal tried to mention this agreement to Britain Germany and France when they were deciding how to split up africa and they basically got laughed at for saying the whole continent belongs to them
This video is just amazing good work and effort i feel like this is very underrated
This is an outstanding video. Showing things from the viewpoint of what the Europeans could see really put things into perspective.
This map stuff is absolutely amazing. I mean the progress of the conquests... Shit.. I rly love it. Thanks, great job.
Your video was excellently done.
Big ups to this channel!!!
*One of the most underrated channels on TH-cam*
Wouldn't doubt you there.
Maybe because of the mistakes in the videos...
@@eleSDSU its suppsoed to be simple for you to udnerstand not a whole documentary my dude
Great graphics and timeline presentation.
You make cool and amazing videos bro
Maaan... this is very well made. With the year and the territories clearing up.
The video maker is very smart he used the same concept that have been used in Red Alert 2 video game........
Big like bro
Fog of war addittion makes a brilliant visualisation, of already well-knowned subject for me. Thanks!

The unshaded part of the Pacific Ocean is the route of where Ferdinand Magellan sail. He Discovered the Philippines and died on 1521 against Filpinos led by Lapu-Lapu in Cebu, Philippines.
love this video. many thanks
Amazing Work 👏👏👏👏👏
spain: we'll take everything west of this line
portugal: ok we'll take all the lands east of this line
hahahahaha oof
StopFlaggingVideos portuguese got SCAMMED
@@enoch8835 not really. At the time Portugal was interested in trade with india. Portugal didnt had the manpower to be a colonial empire, so they wanted to be a economical empire. Lets not forget that at the time the strategy worked and portugal was damn powerfull thanks to that. Portugal was also the first global empire and started thr age of discovery.
@@enoch8835 portugal got the extremely important silk trade and the whole of africa
If you speak Spanish to Africans some will understand & they'll respond back to you in Portugese.
Not really. Actually, we wouldn't have Brazil if we agreed with Spain. We told them to move the line east, and Spain, thinking it would give them most of Asia, agreed. We got Brazil cause we were lucky
The darkness of unknown places, the enlightenment of explored territories, wow. This video strongly reminds me of Age of Empires, AoE 2 to be specific.
3:06 So that's how Brazil was discovered
Yeah?
Cuba and Puerto Rico are still spanish until 1898.
And Philiphines too
when USa decided to deliver some democracy to the Caribe

If you visit the national library of Spain in Madrid in the lecture room you can see in the roof three shields and the names Cuba, Filipinas, Puerto Rico, an other parts of the country representing this new provinces from Spain because the building was build before the war agains USA
This is an excellent channel, the colors, music and black shades over unexplored territories. keep it up man 👍🏻. I watched your videos many times and i enjoyed it every single time. Can not wait to see your next
Blackening the unknown territories is quite bright. Love your video 😍
