    Couldn't agree more! I hardly learned anything in my formal education other than basic math and English (which you can figure out without school) and a very basic and superficial exposure to science and history (also you can get that without school).... autodidact forever! To really acquire knowledge and understanding requires you learn on your own time and thus be motivated on your own rather than have someone shove it down your throat... also formal education has to leave out a lot and condense the subject, so even if you are a good student you're still missing a lot if you only absorb the content in your class

    @abis8 alpha8 I'm guessing you've never heard of the disastrous Athenian Expedition in Sicily😅. People didn't have night vision goggles back then. The Athenians tried a night attack, lead by a guy who specialized in and spammed night attacks (Demosthenes' solution to everything was a night attack😐). But the Athenians ended up killing each other in the dark, in front of the Syracusian fortifications.😅 While the Syracusians listened to the screaming in the dark, of their enemy killing itself... confused. Dispite the confusion, the Athenians did employ a password for exactly this. (Obviously, it wasn't really working) Eventually the Syracusians figured out what was happening and figured that the Athenians were desperately screaming a password while being slaughtered by their own comrades. Then, the Syracusians went out and used that password to assist the Athenian army finish it's mass suicide😅. And if you thought this disaster couldn't get any worse...it did. Would be nice if History March did a video. It was probably the biggest military force Athens ever sent. While Sparta sent basically one man... to train, organize and lead the Syracusians. Things were going pretty well for the Athenians...until this one Spartan arrived.

    @@engrvarsi3774 In this case, not entirely. Galerius was meant to have treated Narseh's female relatives with great respect and had them sent west to live in Daphne in Syria. They remained there until Narseh agreed to the Roman peace terms, at which point they were returned to Persia. This was included in the original script but had to be cut as the video was becoming very long. Of course, it couldn't have been a pleasant experience. It was surely scary for them, and in all likelihood some Roman soldiers did not treat the women well. At the very least one can imagine verbal harassment. To a degree, the sources that relate the honourable treatment of the women are also encouraging a comparison with Alexander and his treatment of captured Persian royalty, and so they may be exaggerating. But based on the sources, the women were treated with the honour due queens and princesses before being returned to the King of Kings.

And in those days, the death of the commander caused the army to rout in most cases. And so over time, rulers might be present at the battle, but command from the rear.

    Yeah, if he had just accepted the reality that Constantine & Maxentius wanted to inherit their father’s power, that would’ve prevented the Tetcharchy from collapsing so quickly after Diocletian’s abdication & Constantius’s death. His friends wouldn’t have been murdered either. I do understand that Diocletian’s vision was to have competent men inherit the Empire & not sons who (in his view) would be inexperienced but he should’ve also seen that Constantine & Maxentius were bitter over being passed over in the succession. Especially when Constantine was accepted as Caesar in 306 but Maxentius was still twirling his thumbs in Rome

    Fun facts: Later on, Narseh's grandson was legendarily crowned while still in his mom's womb in 309 (more likely he was crowned afterward, so the nobles could control him at such a young age), and ruled for the next 70 years as Shapur II, king of kings, and like his namesake, made the Sasanian Empire stronger and paved the way for its first golden age (second came under his descendant Khosrow I). Also, Tiridates III would later on become the first monarch to officially convert to Christianity, making Armenia the first Christian nation. Although legend has it that it was after he was cured by St. Gregory the Illuminator of an unspecified madness after ordering the execution of a group of virgins he wanted to seduce, it was also for the Arsacids to differentiate themselves from the Zoroastrianism of the Sasanians. Edit: I made an error: Shapur II was Narseh's grandson, son of Hormizd II, not son. Sorry for the mistake.
