Sub'd for this one! Nice to see world history not restricted to the confines of Europe (for a change). Could you do one on Achaemenidian egypt? I'm interested in it cause its suppose to be one of the first times an empire took over an older civilization and decided that it's history was something worth protecting for posterity. ....also they used cats in battle!

Iraq should stop with all this infighting kick out the Islamic extremists and change there name to Babylon and prosper as a people. Bring back the might of Babylon with so much religious thinking and teaching. Religion is great but sometimes people can take it to far and destabilize a whole situation. But one major question if anyone knows. Are the people from back then the same people of today. I mean I know the Iranians are the Persians but was these people Arab way back then or more western Eurasian. Like Turkish Armenian causcus region people’s. I know the original Arabs came from the area around yemen

I can't be the only one noticing that the US is headed towards a war. In the Revolutionary war, there was increasing dissent between the colonialists and their British rulers for the laws they started to enforce, gradually more violent conflicts, then violence broke out. Well, in my lifetime, there has been increasing dissent in the different schools of thought (conservatism vs liberalism), gradually more violent conflicts (Portland protests, mass shootings), so it makes sense for violence to break out. With World War II, this trend was followed, with increasing dissent between the German Government and its people over war reparations which caused extremely unpleasant living conditions, gradually more violent conflicts occurred (Red Ruhr Army), which lead to a political leader seizing power and planning for war. And the more I think about this, I cannot help but believe that the way these ancient peoples in the land of Sumer have the answer. It's weird.
Interesting.

The Persian empire did not emerge from the east like you showed. It emerged from the province of Persis(modern day Pars) and defeated the Medians.
I love this timeline of history. I always wonder how these nations never progressed into a true powerhouse of technology. They had the ability to create wonderful structures and create amazing weaponry (like using Damascus steel), so if you compare them to an area like Britain at the same time, Babylon would be so much more advanced. Why is it that this region just didn't continue to learn and is now considered 2nd/3rd world compared to many different countries? I'd love to find out why.

The Persians were the reason , Persians didn’t give a shit about Science and technology like Babylonians , and they separate the wealth of Babylon from the city and divided it to all the Middle East . Also not to mention the situation in England situated in an Island safe from aggressive other European powers made the English people have enough time to improve the technology.

The Egyptians, were originally, Nubians. They shared the same religion, with the Nubians. The Shemites were blessed, because they continued in the worship of one True God.Yhe Angels , were with them, and they were gifted with Holy Spirit.This was why Joseph, could inter pret the dream of the Egyptian king. Abraham, could experience visions, dreams, and trans_migration.

The Remnant Jews, of this time_period, are waking up, to their true heritage, and history. It is happening in Africa.The Israelis, are not Jews.They cannot speak the language of the Real, authentic Jews, some of whom, are in Heaven Today. They cannot give us the original pronunciation, for the names of the prophets of the Bible. The God Of Israel, will give back the language, to His people, who are left back on Earth , at the appointed time.The fact that the Israelis, cannot speak the Real Hebrew Language, is proof that they are not the authentic Jews.
