There is also an argument that he was a leader who welcomed foreign Western powers, traders, and religious leaders into Japan which was something unheard of at the time where the leaders would just execute them. After the Sengoku period, Japan pretty much became an isolated country for around until Matthew C. Perry had to pretty much force Japan to trade with the rest of the world and even then you could argue that Japan had a rocky relationship with the Western world until years after World War II. However you could also make the argument that he wanted guns, westerns had them, and building churches and appealing to them was just the easiest way to get to them (also since Nobunaga was anti-Buddhist that can tell you where his options on religion may lie). Plus Europe was still at that stage where it was every man for themselves when it came to land at the time, so you can understand why leaders was so cautious when it came to foreign powers, no matter how good a person's intentions were.

I know a little curiosity about Moses. according to one theory the name of moses in Hebrew is Mōsheh, (it would be attributed the meaning of "extracted from the water") but it derives from the Egyptian, although today the majority of scholars prefer to believe that the name derives from the Egyptian root Moses , which means son of or generated as we can for example see in the Egyptians Thutmosis (son of Thoth) or Ramses (son of Ra), personally perhaps he had a name like "son of the nile" or of a god/goddess of the river, or In line with this thesis and lacking the name of the father, Moses simply means child as a term of endearment for son. after "cutting the past" he called himself only "son" because he wanted to say: "I am not the son of the false gods of the pharaoh, but of the true god"

No one knows exactly where the name "Moses" comes from. The Jewish traditions themselves do not agree on this. Josephus tries to derive Moses from the Egyptian word for water, while the biblical Exodus story derives Moses from the Hebrew "to draw out". The theory that Moses comes from the Egyptian msj "born/created" is especially interesting when you consider that the word "msj" was pronounced differently at the time in which the bibical Exodus is said to have taken place. Which makes sense when you consider that historians today do not believe that the Exodus was a real historical event, but a later story to explain the origins of Israel, which is why they accidentally used the wrong newer pronunciation of "msj" and not the one which would have been used in the late bronze age. The same can be said about the biblical story of Joseph, which takes place before the story of Moses and is supposed to explain how the Israelites came to Egypt. However, the Egyptians in the Joseph story have names that are only documented in the late New Kingdom period. In other words, names that had not yet been invented at the time in which the Joseph story is set. This means that the Moses and Joseph stories cannot have originated in the Bronze Age, but must have been written much later.

I’m disappointed that, when questioning whether the exodus story took place during Ramesses’s reign, the defense doesn’t even attempt to question the historicity of that story. That story most likely draws from a cultural memory of the time when Egypt controlled the Levant, not when the Jews all migrated to Egypt and then were enslaved.

I would also like to know where this other reply is getting the claim that exodus was written during the Babylonian exile, I have not heard that before. I guess also to "go on the offensive", there is substantial evidence that exodus did happen, among other things, this can be seen in the cultural aspects of the design of the Arc of the Covenant and the Tabernacle, which bears strong similarities to Egyptian construction around the time of Ramses.

We have records from both the Hittites and the Egyptians in which they both proclaimed victory when in reality, it was a tactical stalemate for both sides and a strategic defeat for Ramesses. Indeed, the final blow of the battle was struck by the Egyptians, causing the Hittites to retreat from the field, but not only had both sides suffered tremendous losses, Ramesses was UNABLE to achieve the main objective of taking Kadesh which remained in Hittite hands. Furthermore, he returned to his capital shadowed by the Hittite forces all the while and the Hittites continued to expand their influence further along the coast for the next 2 years. It’s interesting to note that, at the Battle of Kadesh, though Great King Muwatalli II may have been the overall Commander of the Hittite Forces, his “Marshal”, for lack of a better term, was his younger brother Prince Hattusili who would distinguish himself that day as one of the Hittite Empires most brilliant generals and would even make a name for himself among the Egyptians, particularly Ramesses, leading his own chariot into the thick and reportedly slaughtering the chief of the Sherden that were part of Ramesses’ own guard. Both gained respect for each other after the battle and, with the treaty of eternal peace signed between them, the two would maintain a friendly correspondence for the rest of their lives, with Hattu even sending one of his daughters to marry Ramesses and Ramesses sending continuous shipments of grain to feed the Hittite Empire during the famines of the late 13th century BCE. After Muwa’s death, Hattu would succeed his brother as King Hattusili III after a brief civil war with Muwatalli’s son Urhi-Teshub and would create the mutual defense pact with Ramesses.

Doesn't monument construction provide job to people and thus helps flow of money to ordinary citizens in the form of wages?

Yes it does actually

It sounds exactly like the FGO version of him, he’s powerful during sunlight and his special move is the monuments he build.

After watching Patterns of Evidence: Exodus, I am convinced that Ramesses II could not have been the Pharaoh of the Exodus. This is because there were no Hebrews during his reign, and Israel was already an established country at that time.

That Ramses II name gag towards the end really got me, ngl

Ah my favorite segment

Thank you!

we need more history VS on this site

Do history vs King Henry 2nd of England

Do History Vs. Richard I Lionheart !!!

I first found out about Ramesses II through a manhua called "Pharoah's Concubine" A manhua I hold dearly in my heart.

Do Otto von Bismarck next. He is my favourite historical ruler and very controversial.

The Ten Commandments (1956) is a monument of movie history that it has to be clarified in this video on the actual likelihood of Ramesses II being the Pharaoh mentioned in the book of Exodus.

@@thethrowbackguy4319 They're descended from the Canaanite population that used to live around Israel. They were nomadic herders. The fact that Ted Ed even encourages this myth despite historians *universally* agreeing it never happened is unprofessional and pathetic. They should not be pandering to politics or religion if they're going to claim to be an educational channel.

I think the greatest irony of Ramses is that his potential involvement with the first Abrahamic religion set up the other 2 to eventually gain permanent footholds in Egypt within the next 2000 years. Islam and Coptic Orthodox Christianity are the 2 most followed religions in Egypt.

I like the creative court format, slightly easier to keep track of both sides for people like me that aren’t great at history, good film 😊

This is my favorite series.

Ramses II would have built the temple to show the world that was Egypt and since he built it, he was Egypt. The majority of his army was from either Lower Nubia or Upper Egypt, so the building of the temple in those lands was almost as important to the believers as it was for him. He was greatness and they were associated with that greatness.

Please more like this one. ❤👌

Anyway, a Thing to consider it's that: the most the accused it's far from us in the timeline, the less we can understand, and judge, his action, because WE can't understand his world

That twist at 5:39 burst me into laughter. Good job TED-Ed

Me too

The stubborn pharaoh of the Exodus was either Amenhotep II or Thutmose IV. The Aten Revolution was the fallout of the Exodus.

You should do King John; the brother of Richard the Lionheart. He's a lot more of a grey figure than most people know.

im interested, elaborate

I often hate the lawyer arguing against the figure in trial. He always sounds so pretentious and often says things that don’t seem true or are coming from a modern perspective and not looking around the big picture. Ramses was a highly successful pharaoh.

0:49, "rameses, rameses...I think I heard of him." "LET MY PEOPLE GO!" me: *spits out my apple juice from my mouth* "MOSES?!"

Please make history on trial about Toyotomi Hideyoshi

I don't know if there is a suggestion box, but I'd love to see a "History vs Thomas Edison", given that he used to be widely respected but has since been seen in a much less flattering light...

history vs winston churchill history vs henry kissinger

Ooh, we haven't had one of these in a while

Either Churchill or Thatcher should be next in this series.

I would like to see them put Ferdinand Marcos Sr. on trial. While he did achieve good things, he had a share of controversies.

Love these, Robert E Lee would be great if you take requests.
