There's definitely a lot of Roman inspiration to Gondor's storyline. Although, I would argue that the Battle of Minas Tirith specifically also draws a lot of inspiration from the 1683 Siege of Vienna (ancient city under siege by "evil enemy hordes" saved by a massive cavalry charge).

But that it had exactly seven kings, their names, what they did (like all the stuff that Numa Pompilius was supposed to have started) - yep, that's basically legend. Maybe there's some truth in it somewhere, maybe there was some king called Numa Pompilius at some time (although he certainly didn't do all that), but currently, we can't say what parts _may_ be based on actual events.

@Historia Aeterna It's because of Western Propaganda, which don't like monarchies. Note how Rome spilled far more blood in the Gladiatorial arenas for the sake of crude entertainment and yet are still admired with many buildings in the US modeled after Roman architecture, while the Aztecs whom spilled far less blood in sacrifices are considered horrific savages. It's the lens of Western Propaganda that makes Rome worth admiring because they had a Senate and the Roman Kings despised and ignored because the Senate overthrew them.

I watched all your videos about the development of the Roman Army, and I'm so impressed with the work and dedication! I would like to ask if you could make a chronological playlist with all videos.

Awesome fellas, never can pass up anything abaout Rome and when Kings and Generals does it, it makes it that much better!!!

Finally! A documentary on very early Roma. I feel the tribal and clan phase of the peninsula is rarely ever discussed. Schools teach us about the pinnacle of Rome yet they forget to show us greatness has humble beginnings. Good on this channel for starting history from the beginning. I wish I could find a video about the way war was fought and important battles that happened before Rome was what it was. It's hard to find more then a foot note about the Samnites and other various cultures/peoples that also inhabited Italy.

Most people discard the Byzantines all too easily citing that they’re too different from the “Romans” to be considered as such all the while ignoring the fact that Romans of the late Empire would’ve been unrecognizable to the early Romans and even indeed the Republic of Scipio Africanus.

I'm subscribed to several history channels like Historia Civilis, Epic History TV, The Great War, and Extra History. What impresses me the most about Kings and Generals are the constant releases and the colorful and professional presentation. Your videos LOOK good, the narration appropriately reflects the historical event, and most importantly, you present a fair account of all sides. I'm proud to be a supporter of your channel and I am excited to see where Kings and Generals will go in the future. Question: Now that you have finished your series on the Diadochi, do you guys plan on releasing a single video combining all of the episodes? Do you have similar plans for other completed series like the Vikings and Justinian?

@KingsandGenerals

5 жыл бұрын

Thank you for the kind words. It is hard work and sleepless nights :) Yes, we will have full Diadochi video and perhaps add a few missed points there to make it more complete. As for Vikings, it is an incomplete series, we kinda abandoned it due to lack of interest. Justinian is too short and map styles are different to be able to combine them in one video. Instead, we will start a brand new series in a few weeks that will replace Diadochi in the schedule.

It's still fascinating to me that a single city state could expand into an Empire that lasts for a Millenia.

John Keegan, one of the most insightful military historian of our age, in the "History of Warfare", explains how the characteristics of war is strictly dependent by the characteristics of societies fighting it. This is blatant in the early Roman case. The names of the different soldiers, their deployment, their equipment etc. are a mirror image of the early roman society. And, I would add, the early Roman society was very much shaped by the requirements of war. However, you guys do a wonderful job! You were definitely part of the inspiration that took me to start my own channel.
