His ideas haven't moved on since the days of Gibbon. This is a dated idea of Europe. None of the ancient world that he presents as foundation for the very idea of Europe we wouldn't have access to without it being preserved, interpreted & disseminated by Arab scholars.

Nothing is free my friend. Don't think that a minute of your time is worthless. A second for ads is priceless. But I agree with the documentary is high quality.

I adored this documentary. As i greek i can say that there are some important missing parts of ancient greek history ( Philosophy, history, medicine, criticism, maths, olympics, sparta and its oen democratic principles - public education, equality in fortune). Great alexander and macedonians didn t conquered greece, because they were part of it ( same language, religion, traditions, participation at olympics). Actually ancient cities were often fighting one another. They are called greece because everytine needed they were united and because of what is known as "panhellenic bonds". Though i totally understand that you cannot include every detail in such a documentary. Thank you very much for the great job. The narrator is awesome!

For years it is repeated like in windmills all the same history ! But what I found recently is miracle . The fortrees in Ohrid ( lihnid )was built by Filip the Second of Makedon . That is why we have remined Republic Makedonia . Our name was not changed but become stronger with the new preposition "North". Sorry Graecusian ! Was that the change of our name ?

This should have a million views at least. The amount of effort that is exerted here is great. And we can view it for free.

Well I believe Germans were fighting in Roman Legions during the time of Caligula right? After all I believe Caligula may have had German influences given his name. Of course these would be Germans who had been in Silesia for many centuries before the Romans correct?

To me, Christopher Clark is one of the great history explainers of our time. Always informative, entertaining, deeply humane and accurate to the point. Not only in the documentaries, but also in his books. I'm just reading "Iron Kingdom" about Prussia's history - it's just excellent. I am very grateful that he came over to tell us about our history again and again. Thank you for uploading this great documentary series.

Great job!!! remarkable video, definitely needs an award

Thank you very much for this marvellous gift. Alone the computer graphics reconstructions would be enough to make this documentary remarkable. The way the facts are linked and analysed allows a comprehensive panorama of the birth, raise and fall of the empires that culminated in the formation of this amazing continent known as Europe.

I really enjoyed this very happy to have seen it, still have to watch part two but very pleased with it. Thankyou so much.

Holy moly. Awesome stuff. Gonna binge watch

3:30. Right then and there you can tell this is nothing but neo nationalism, which ignores all evidence that doesn't support its agenda. The first homo sapient in Europe (the ones that intermixed with neanderthals) we know for a fact based on dna, were people related to ancestors of East Asians and Melanesians, haplogroup K. And we have their descendents, haplogroup R, showing up in locations like Italy 15 thousand years ago, or Spain 11 thousand years ago. Showing clear genetic continuity over a vast period of time. The first Europeans, as well as more recent hunter-gatherers did not come by way of the route shown here.. It is non factual.

Absolutely amazing.. so happy I found this channel!

Very happy to see all the comments and perhaps even epiphanies brought alive from viewing this excellent and informative/wonderful documentary about our European history. Bravo! Ⓜ️ edit: his DNA results made me excited and happy for him!

Europe conquered the world

Thank you! I'm so pleased to have found this channel, with an interest in the history of Europe, and my country of birth, The Netherlands. The assumption that Neanderthalers were stupid and undeveloped is a huge mistake. Due to their way of living with the elements, animal and plant-life, they were deeply connected to the knowledge of form and shape. Hence the extraordinarily detailed, correct display of animal-drawings on the face of rock.

Wonderfully done. Thank you.

That incredible art,those painting, were not created by chance.Those paintings were created by educated People...There must of being an incredible civilization who was destroyed and those people who survived were trying to send a message...this is what I believe.

Regarding the eight legged bison depicted on the cave walls, it was suggested by Werner Herzog in his documentary “cave of forgotten dreams” that a lit torch in a cave would flicker, and might create the illusion of movement by the bison.

A fascinating way to communicate history!

The Roman Empire was collapsed by the Germanic tribes defeated by the Nomadic Asian tribes defeated by The Han dynasty.

I don’t usually watch videos this long, but it definitely kept my attention!

so happy to find this channel

Heya northerner here, I'd like to set one thing straight. The Germanic people in Europe had a fast trading network during the entire Roman time. They sold the Romans ships, cattle and where famous for their horses who where a bit bigger than the pony's the Romans used but still pony's bij today's measures. People on the coast sailed to Scandinavia from the iron age on. People build living mounts in tidal areas even small dikes and polders. A coastal living mount near my house has been dug up and they found Roman artefacts, money jewelry. They started building on the mount in the year 200 and you can't build defense against the sea with just a village so.. no they weren't backwards people. How would they have fought the Romans successfully if they still lived ages behind?
