Minorities in Russia all faced a little harassment from time to time but that’s the same almost anywhere with minorities in any country :) In Romania however for example it’s a very different situation, many Gypsies/Roma in Romania live in separate villages and are very different from the rest of society. I’m sure some have assimilated but from what I’ve heard that’s not the case with many of them. (Edit: I’m not saying Romanians are prejudiced, and I’m aware that many Roma in the Balkans are isolated by their own choice. Although I have heard a few stories of Romanians giving Roma people a hard time or expressing dislike towards them, I’m sure these stories do not represent most of the people in their country. I have some Romanian-American friends, some are Roma, some are ethnic Romanian, some are a mix of both, and they and their families are incredibly sweet and the Romanians I know are some of the nicest people ever, and they were all very receptive of the fact that I am part Roma. Every group of people has good and bad, including the Roma, but who you are as an individual is what’s most important, not your heritage, and anyone can discriminate towards anyone, and it’s never right :). )

All of my friends have been robbed by them at some point. They live in camps made of slums and caravans, burning their trash all the times. We already have to deal with the mafia and other criminal organizations, and their presence in my country doesn't help at all.

The romani didnt just use regular iron for swords etc. It was an alloy mix with scrap metals into iron which made tools rust free, lighter and more flexible for longer time. British records identified the extensive use of "Wootz steel" in india, 1790s as an alloy mix while industrial England had just started to look for proper ratio and preparing the mould.

There is a Banjara Community still in India who never settles at one place and make their living by travelling all over India & selling their beautiful crafts where ever they go but we never had any problem with them infact they are considered as blessed by gods due to their high skill in Music, Trade, Handcraft, Herbal Medicine & Black Magic.

Great video but "why go west" needs a correction. They immigrated both east and west, while only in the east they were significantly more assimilated. I'm from Bangladesh and in Bangladesh, they are called "Bede/Bedey" or Bedeni as feminine. The word itself is clearly of a foreign origin as many north Indo-Aryan languages are gendered while Bengali and it's recent predecessors are not. A rough translation for Bede would be "river gypsies". In Eastern Indian subcontinent, their preferred mode of transport for their itinerant lifestyle were boats.

The treatment of these groups in Europe has varied across the centuries. My grandmother grew up in rural Ireland and she remembers the 'Gypsies' as tinkerers, tinsmiths, menders and traders in small goods. Their reputation as useful was so widespread that, if you broke something, 'better find a Gypsy" was a common response.

Going off on a slight tangent here but, in regard to metalwork and India, did you know that in the 1790s English experts declared Indian wootz (the steel from which Damask swords were made) to be the best steel in the world and Sheffield etc. copied its techniques whilst steelmaking (as with all other manufacturing - see below) was was suppressed in India to keep it a Captive Market pauperized by the piratical British who (according to research published by Columbia University Press) in 2018 stole US$45 Trillion from India over 190 years of occupation. Prior to British occupation, Mughal India had the world's largest economy with over 25% of global GDP. In 1616 English ambassador Thomas Roes described Delhi as the Treasury of the World. Indian cottons dominated the world market (revolutionizing European clothing), and it was the silver drain due to India's successful exports that was a major factor behind British conquest with its systematic elimination of Indian textile competition including breaking weavers' fingers and cutting off the thumbs of Dhaka Muslin weavers (Dhaka Muslin which cost many times the price of silk can no longer been made due to this). As mid-19th Century historians, H.H. Wilson and Friedrich List both noted, Britain's cotton-based Industrial Revolution could not have taken off without the systematic destruction of competition from cheaper and superior quality Indian handloom cottons - even with steam power. Similarly, the oldest seaworthy ship in the Royal Navy HMS Trincomalee was built by an Indian company in Bombay in 1817 (of superior Indian Teak) but British shipbuilders made parliament pass laws stopping shipbuilding in India. In 1770, the EIC started shipping Indian opium to China which brought in 1/7 of UK export revenues for 140 years. Furthermore, whereas Ireland suffered one great manmade famine created by the British, India was subjected to around 3 dozen such British famines killing tens of millions in British occupied parts of India. It started with the Great Bengal Famine of 1770 which killed up to 1/3 of Bengal Province (then inc. Bihar and Orissa - some 10 million) which William Thackeray's relative Richard Becher had predicted due to British Rapacity. At the same time Robert Clive returned to Britain with his 'loot' (Hindi for plunder) as the richest non-monarch in Europe and his East India Co. mafia henchmen became the new super rich 'nobs' (from nawabs/'nabobs'). This loot largely financed the Industrial Revolution. The 1770 Famine caused a Credit Crunch in Europe in 1772 when dozens of banks collapsed in days due to lack of stolen Indian wealth financing European projects. Adam Smith had to delay publication of his Wealth of nations. In 1877 Cornelius Walford showed that there were 30 famines in just 120 years in Brit-occupied India compared to ony 17 famines in the whole of India in the previous 2,000 years. This is because native rulers (including Indianised Muslims) acted to prevent and alleviate famine with imports of grain, rationing and prohibition of hoarding/profiteering. The British created famines by hoarding and profiteering during droughts, exporting India's grains for British Food Security and Profit and even preventing charitable aid to famine victims. Disraeli's regime set up Death Camps for victims of the 1877 South Indian Famine which gave less starvation rations than Buchenwald for hard labour to famine victims. 94% of inmates died with 5-7 million in total dying whilst record amounts of Indian foodgrains were exported for British Food Security and profit. Disraeli also organized the biggest feast in human history - the 1877 Delhi Durbar - feasting 60,000 for a week [to mark Vicky being named Empress to match her German cousin's 'Kaiser' title] whilst 100,000 a week starved in Madras Province. Famine survivors were coerced into the new slavery of indentured labour in the Caribbean. Such British Crimes Against Humanity continued into the 20th Century. In 1901 The Lancet calculated conservatively from the Census that 19 million had died of starvation in Western India in the 1890s due to such 'Let the Poor Indians Starve' policies - 25% of the UK's wheat came from Western India at the time - industrial Britain was not self-sufficient in food until after 1945. In 1936 George Orwell wrote in Road to Wigan Pier that 100 million Indians must be forced to the edge of starvation so that the British can live in comfort. In 1942-3 White Supremacist War Criminal Winston Churchill - who had actually spent the 1930s campaigning against Indian Independence (not against Hitler) -warning that the British working classes would starve without occupying India - was responsible for the first 1939-45 war atrocity actually labelled a 'holocaust' - the 1942-3 manmade Bengal Famine which again killed millions (although India as a whole produced surplus foodgrains). None of the wartime rationing of food etc. used for White British was applied to India. After British censorship of the huge death tolls were broken in 1943 after over a year - WC acted to prevent Food Aid from the USA, Canada, Australia and even Japan reaching his victims - diverting the food to Britain to manipulate postwar prices and feed ex-Axis Italians. Even Hitler had allowed in Red Cross Food Aid to famine-struck Greece in 1941.

Having lived in Britain since 1967, I know how these facts are suppressed by the British media and so that it gets heard - esp. as the British were demonizing German Crimes Against Humanity on Jan 27th and have been demonizing Stalin for a much smaller manmade famine, the so-called 'Holodomor' in Ukraine as well as the BBC demonizing Indian PM Narendra Modi whilst hushing up their own Crimes Against Humanity [as with the focus on the 1947 Partition violence ignoring how the British mismanagement, leaving India whilst the exact new borders had still not been declared etc. - and the RAF strafing Indian crowds in 1946 etc.]. I have even included this information [partly as endnotes] in my scholarly books on the scientific and metaphysical understanding of Consciousness which are actually being read by professors all over the world in places such as Oxford and Harvard and many in Germany [they have asked for copies - even though I put in a warning to British people that my work exposes British Crimes Against Humanity which were deflected from by historians such as James Mill (who became 2nd in command of the EIC) claiming that India was a Land of Eternal Poverty and Famine supposedly due to 'Hinduism'!

As a Gypsy, who have been in touch with people who are researching us. They told me we came from Egypt through Persia. (Wich Indeed included parts of India.) And than went west. After the Sinti split, and than the Romani came.

Fun fact, there are gypsy tribes all over India too. i.e they did spread into India from their original areas. I am from the south and there is a well known gypsy tribe that were hired as mercenaries to guard a fort in an area near my own origin (they had originally come from the north) and then became more migratory after its collapse some centuries later after. But they still hold their fort-clan name and the stories regarding it. They have very unique customs not local to the area too. So not all gypsies spread only to the west, they spread in all directions, its just that they stick out a lot more in the West.

@@BG-it7hb Maybe you should use the term "Traveller," which lacks ethnic connotations. In the British Isles there are many travelling communities, which have overlapping but different customs and also ethnic origins. There are the Romanies or Romanichal, but there are also Irish Travellers and Highland Travellers whose language contains Gaelic elements. There are also New Age Travellers who seem to have developed from the Hippies and attendees at music festivals of the 1960s. Margaret Thatcher sent the police to raid the New Age Travellers and the midsummer solstice celebrants at Stonehenge. Right wing politicians and newspapers continue to persecute the Roma as well as the latter groups. Thatcher and John Major brought back mass unemployment and expanded that to include homelessness and begging on the street for all communities. Now we have tented shanty towns in all major cities and also associated with Amazon warehouses. The right to live by the roadside is constantly being eaten away, and local authorities exert themselves to stop caravans going onto unused land. The law even forbids people to settle on land they own: permission to do so is usually refused, even when there is a legal need to provide spaces for caravan dwellers. The police conduct raids to evict families from caravans on their own land. Just recently, the right to camp in a tent on unused land without permission from a landowner in England has been removed: it's still allowed in Scotland. The people who operate circuses and travelling funfairs are itinerants, who overlap somewhat with the gypsies. I should also mention the almost extinct group of families who operated barges on the canal systems. While all this persecution goes on, people from the majority community with houses of their own are free to roam the UK in caravans and motor homes in their free time, and slum landlords rent out caravans on their own land to those who would otherwise be homeless.

One had a Latin cross around her neck, and looked unlike anything Slavic, so I pointed at her and asked "Roma?" and she nodded yes. Our Intourist guide said that indeed there were Gypsy groups, and that their lives were separate, with the men not doing military service, and the children not going to school. She said that they begged for food and for money to buy milk for the children.

Thank you ❤ The main reason why the Gypsies weren't welcome in Europe was because of the rigid medieval guild system. Gypsies were skilled craftsmen in many trades, creating unwanted competition for European guilds. For that reason, they were banned from exercising trade, forcing them to earn their living by fringe occupations such as music, fortune telling, horse trading or crime. Their different racial origin did assist in marginalizing them but the main reason was the competition they presented for European trade guilds.

There's a French documentary made in the 90s called Latcho Drom (which means 'safe journey' I think) and, without any narration, it simply depicts various Romani groups working and playing (music) from India all the way to Spain. Worth a watch, or even just a listen to the soundtrack. One thing that is fascinating is, if you play the album from start to finish, east to west, the musical style flows, and yet the end sounds Spanish while the start sounds Indian, indicating the key role played by the itinerants in these various musical traditions.

I used to see ladies making each other hair and making really creative designs by pleating hair. People used to save all their broken buckets made of metal for repairs. They also used to put a layer of silver metal in Brass pots process called kalee in Punjabi. A lady used to come to see my gran every time she visited and I remember calling her Massi (mum's sister) as she used to say that she came to see her sister.

After so long but worth the wait. High quality in-depth research ,superb graphics and sound design , Truely this channel is a top notch ,hope it reaches to more and more people. Keep the good work going ❤️

Hackman, your outlook is extremely naive, you're probably very young and haven't had time to gain enough life experiences to realize what you said is extremely dumb and will cause tensions and violence if/where implemented, like in the United States.

Love from Himachal Pradesh 🇮🇳 Come here brother!!! Do like Ice Skating???

I've always found the unique culture of the gypsies to be very interesting and I always wondered where it came from thank you for this video.

I am an English rumnychel (English Roma version) it's true that we didn't know exactly where we were from and it's amazing the work you folks are doing thank u

This is this first video from your channel that got recommended to me probably because I looked up Roma history on google a couple of months ago. Great job with the content and graphics! Especially the part about how unyielding and gruesome the Islamist colonisers were to Indian subcontinent and our local cultures. They destroyed centuries worth of libraries and knowledge as well along with farmlands, religious institutions etc. It makes complete sense why swaths of Indian population chose to flee from the obsessive cruelty of muslim colonisers.

@@mint8648 It wasn't just the Romani and Sinti who migrated. There were also massive migrations of Hindus from the Indo-Gangetic plains into Southern India, North East India and the Himalayan regions to escape the Islamic colonisers.

I can’t imagine how much hard work you put in to your videos .

It’s so sad how easy people hate and are afraid of cultures and people they don’t understand.

I have to say, this was fascinating! Makes a lot more sense.

Dude, I am so happy I stumbled on your channel! For the first time ever I have some kind of framework for the origin of the Roma people! Gonna watch all your video from the first to the last. :)

Wow at least someone showed we are first defenders of India proud to descendent's of warrior kannadigas mighty chalukyas ಜೈ ಭುವನೇಶ್ವರಿ✨❤️

Thanks for explaining our history

I am glad that many of these information about our past (read history) still prevails and we get to learn/know about them. My ancestors are Rajasthani however I was born and brought up in Odisha (Eastern part of India), guess we moved East instead of West. I have had a very exploratory life so far staying in multiple places in India either for education purpose or work and recently moved to Ireland because I wanted to further explore the world (outside India). I don't really know what I am seeking from life and why is it so difficult for me to settle in one place. Whenever, I read about gypsies, I get so intrigued about their lifestyle, their stories, dressing style, jewelries, etc. There is something very mystique about them and I feel I relate to them a lot. I strongly feel I have the same DNA (would definitely consider testing it one day). I am glad I watched this video, I had no clue about the Indian origin story- I guess, we learn something new each day. I wish I get to meet and connect with some gypsy people in EU!

As a Romani thanks for this video, keep up the good work.

This is probably the best video I've watched on KZread about the Roma and Sinti People

Fascinating video. Thank you.

I once met a gypsy in France about 8 years ago, white skinned by appearance, he was a waiter in a café. he showed me something interesting, in his wallet he carried one single Indian currency note, perhaps to remind them of their origins.. It was an interesting meeting which helped me understand how far our people had travelled. It said that most of Russia and former soviet republics were all following or near the culture that is practiced till today in Bharat.. that's a read for another time I guess..

I heard about their origin but this was a very detailed origin story...Thanks for this video. ❤️

One of the greatest produced history videos i have ever seen on youtube bravo! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Chalukyas mentioned. Thank you. Not many talk about them although they deserve a lot of credit.

I am amazed by this wonderful knowledge new to me and amazed at the tininess of my knowledge compared to all there is to know

Roma means beautiful in Sanskrit. Romani means a beautiful person in Sanskrit

Romale means "people" in Gypsy

I honestly don’t know much about Gypsies but when I watched a couple of shows with them I noticed so many similarities between them and Indians that I came to the conclusion they must have originated from India. Thank you for such an amazing video!

Not really. I'm an Indian and I have met many gypsies in Germany. They didn't look like me. They couldn't understand me and even I did not know that they were indians. They look like Turks or Balkans. Tbh I can't really differentiate between Arabs , Turks , Balkans , Greeks, Romanians or gypsies

Gypsy DNA was India... if u check... And it was not in Pakistan no ... In fact it was originally India... Just do DNA test... Rajasthan or many other parts of India... U can say it Indian subcontinent... Pakistan is part of India... First check what all world government and India government and other DNA report then you will know nothing related to Pakistan It can be called they are from India and India subcontinent. Actually gypsy who not migrated Europe still living in India... But they are far lower than any Indian.. In my area i bet if any gypsy come they will find out their people still living... Even here in eastern area of India.. believe they make their home on India government land here is 100 acre useless land of government they come every year stay and go somewhere else after some time.

Not really… there is 2 main group of gypsies Gitano/lovari Sinti The gitano group traveled in south europe and the sinto in north europe The sinti have pretty white skin and even blonde and red hair while gitano is a bit darker (like lighter skinned arabians) and have brown and black hair! Gypsies not really indins but indo-iranian and aryan people! Also we have major greco-italic dna! Probably because of yavana kingdom Also in our language have ton of greek words so probbaly my yavana kindom theory is true whoch mean gypsies oroginally from greece and italy and the yavana kingdom was a greek kingdom in north-west india in 200bc to 30ad! And just for case we have good and bad peoples too! Not everyone is bad nor good… We had many discrimination and genocides like holocaust where around 1.5 million gypsies brutally died! (Our populations’ 40%!)

Good summary of Gypsy history. Like any other situation in history, the nation being persecuted is not completely innocent. I have had Gypsy friends, but let's face it, there is a large criminal element within that community. Especially their aggressive begging practices and pickpocketing are a big problem. I remember how in Poland I gave one migrant Gypsy some money and soon about 20 Gypsies surrounded me pushing on me, even going into a church after me. I have witnessed many similar situations and the crime rate among Gypsies is higher than other communities. This doesn't justify any killings or official discrimination, but it means that many people will avoid Gypsies not because of who they are, but because of what many of them do. Overall, Gypsies are definitely a blessing to Europe because of their rich culture

Fascinating & informative even if it ended abruptly. I’ve been fascinated by the Gypsies for awhile and enjoy the Gypsy Punk style of Gogol Bordello!
