Matt is a great teacher, which is a gift. Another excellent overview of a huge timeline and wealth of information.

I just got my book a few days ago and I’m so very excited to share this with my friends on camping trips and hopefully with my own children some day! It’s been a pleasure looking at the pictures and reading over the subjects. Made me feel like a kid again

I just want to say that I love your work. Extraordinary, dude! Please continue :) (and I have everything [book and posters] from your site up to the beginning of this year) I love them all! Thanks again for the great contribution to the world, that is your work!

The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth surely deserves more than a blurb. We were the first country in Europe to have religious freedom and a Parliament that kept the Monarch in check.

One of the best history videos I've seen. Very well structured.

6:53 Slavs and Avars from Asia?! Since when?

Gotta admit this video really did come when I least expected it. I knew it would be a while with the widening gap between individual releases in this series, and then especially after he remastered the Asia video with Rackam I literally stopped thinking about it after a while.

So good 🔥

You have made many videos on different civilizations and people all over the world and they are all interesting. Could you include the Sami culture in Sapmi, northern Scandinavia and Russia. I think it would complement the Germanic culture and how Scandinavia was populated!

What a great visualization of one of the most important areas in human history. You cover so much in such a little space.

@@ericktellez7632 "Asia" remains a western invention, a European concept, much like "Europe". At least Europe can be considered one single civilisation, while Asia has several different civilisations that have nothing to do with each other (people in the middle east are closer in terms of civilisation and even ethnicity to people from Europe, than they are to people in China). So the comparison is unfair to begin with. Europe can be fairly compared with a cultural area such as the Indian sub-continent, or such as east-Asia, but not the whole Asia which is basically just the Eurasian landmass minus Europe.

Good job with this video! I want to point out that the Slavs did not arrive from Asia, but from Eastern Europe (around modern-day Ukraine and Belarus). Also, The First Bulgarian empire lasted for much longer than you show in the chart. It is founded in 681 by refugees from the former Old Great Bulgaria and was annexed in 1018 by East Rome. There is also the second Bulgarian empire which lasted from 1185 - 1396/1422.

I may get my granddaughter a copy as well. It would be great if schools picked up the charts and the book as well. This brings history alive and makes it far more interesting!

I would also add about the almost complete Ottoman, and what would have probably been Islamic expansion into Europe, stopped by the Kingdom of Poland (+ HRE) Stopped at the Battle of Vienna 12 Sept 1683, its also noted as the largest cavalry charge in history As well as casually being the turning point of a 300 year struggle between the Ottomans and the Austrian Habsburg I'd say pretty significant in European history The book looks amazing though!

Thanks for another great video. Does your book being shipped worldwide or just to Europe or North America?

These overviews of history are so compelling! I am mostly interested in the global and European timelines--the ones I find engaging in light of my ethnic heritage and my current intellectual interests. I understand history soooo much better by beginning with a birds-eye summary. And I deeply resent the perforated patchwork, ahistorical hopscotch, mortally censored mess called history we were given from about 5th grade through 12th (ages 10 to 18). We were farcically expected to see some sequential logic in this story, shredded-and-taped-into-brain-glazing incoherence though it was. Only now, 63 years later, am I stumbling through an organized chronicity with conterminous geography, offering the scaffolding of this thing I now treasure--An understanding of civilization. I still long to fill in many details--but this no-nonsense outline, even in its brevity, offers a grasp of origins, salient milestones, watersheds of great import and moments of pivotal change. I can tell myself, anyway, which meanings are concordant with which developments, and what future purposes can be wrought of history's grand sweep of endeavors, events, ideas, disasters and achievements. It's a journey that could actually head toward a happy ending, at least if people of good will win the day, and we're not collateral in the ambitions of Putin, Xi Jinpeng, Trump, Assad or Lukashenko.

Have you considered a European distributor? With digital printing as it is it shouldn’t be too difficult to arrange. I’d love to buy some of your charts, but the shipping from the USA is ridiculously expensive. I can’t justify spending more on shipping that charts actually cost.

Awesome video and chart. Just One correction though. Louis XVI of France was not the grandson of Louis XIV (the sun king). Louis XIV outlived his heir and HIS heir and was followed by his great-grandson Louis XV, who also outlived his heir, to be followed by his grandson Louis XVI (who was killed in the french revolution). So it's a total of not three but six generations. Also: thanks for including the little detail of the two separated parts of Germany. It was an "interesting" century for us xD

Thanks for the wonderful chart and great explanation. One thing I'd like to say is that at 14:49, Dutch war of Independence was during 1566~1648. So the [Dutch Republic] begins one hundred years earlier than this chart. And the Dutch Golden Age is during mid-1600s and is to be before the War of the Spanish Succession. One of the reason of the decline of the Dutch Golden Age is thought to be the Dutch involvement of the War of the Spanish succession. So after the War of the Spanish Succession, Dutch Republic existed for a while but its influence was greatly diminished.

I have been meaning to buy your limited edition British Royal family tree, but I've been hesitating because I wondered if it might be updated with King Charles III? If not, I intend to get it anyway, but I didn't want to miss my chance to have an up-to-date one.

One small change I'd make for the Dutch Republic is to begin their existence around 1588, because the reason the Netherlands so quickly dominated the spice trade was because Portugal and Spain were united. This made it so the Dutch weren't only fighting the Spanish, but also the Portuguese, thus giving the Dutch a reason to take over the trading posts and colonies established by the Portuguese.

Very good. Slavs however don't belong to group of those migrating from Asia. It's about the same time (Actually Avars made the push to move Slavs) but their place of origin is on the border of current Belarus and Ukraine. Far from Asia, yet place often overlooked You actually have the blue vs orange map - and there where those two population end on the East - Balts (north) ans Slavs (center) lived

The gauls were celtic people. It probably remains the main ancestry of white french people, but later the roman and germanic (Frank) ancestry is also significant. So French people from the middle ages until the early 20th century were a mix between mainly Gaulish, Roman (southern half) and Germanic (northern half) influences.

Etruscan culture span from IXth to IIIth century BCE when they were pretty much absorbed by the Romans. Their territory was (mostly) constrained to what is today north Italy, so they would be a small line parallel to the first Rome one, although they weren't the only player in Italy at the time.

Hi, this chart is a great job. Just a little correction : Louis XVI, who was the king during the French Revolution was not the Grand-son of Louis XIV but his great-great-great-grand son : Louis XV was the great-grand son of Louis XIV, and Louis XVI was the grand-son of Louis XV... Anyway Louis XVI was the direct descendant of Louis XIV....

Italy was unified in 1861, not 1871. In 1866 joined Veneto and in 1870 Rome. But the union was in '61.
