These videos makes me like history a lot more and want to learn more about the history. History is just SO interesting

Several years ago, I started watching documentaries about one of two of the world's most famous volcanic eruptions, and I didn't immediately begin with that thing in Italy. It was completely on the other side of the world in the Sunda Strait. Funny thing about it, these two eruptions were almost 2,000 years apart, but they happened in the same month and only 3 days apart. August 27, 1883. After watching "Krakatoa, the great volcanic eruption", I remembered good old Vesuvio and when I saw Mary Beard's presentations on Pompeii and Herculaneum, I was absolutely hooked and started watching everything I could find about Ancient Rome. Mary ain't the only one who does fabulous doc's about the Roman Empire, but I love her style, it's so refreshing, even if I've watched the same videos almost a hundred times each. "I have given her documentaries without limit."

The fearsome ancient leader: Emperor Boots.

The way she presents and the why this video is made I have never seen Rome like this despite so many movies and documentaries. Sad to know about emperor who suffered so much in life and his name was so cruelly defamed for all eternity in history with false information.

You end up having to throw out most news sources and go straight to the source, wherever it came from, if its even provided. This accounts for nearly the entirety of the unstable power heirarchy; acting on accurate actionable intelligence, and being the in-crowd that doesn't get mind-fu***d.

Mary calling Caligula "bootykins" quite often is hilarious to me and no more than he deserves. He was at least sadistic, if not actually psychotic, so being remembered and identified by a childish nickname that he hated, is a mild castigation by history and his enemies that I appreciate and am fully on board with

The most terrifying aspect of Caligula is that what Suetonius wrote about him actually feels TRUE (and that's sayin' something, considering Suetonius' love for rumors and hyperbole): constant sexual depravities, bizarre-disturbing excentricities, insane-illogical taxes, and numerous acts of random torture, verbal threats, and/or murder.

all of this information about how Tyberius treated Gaius, and all they say is how Gaius learned from Tyberius, and nothing is said about the fact that his uncle abused him, quite likely sexually as well as physically and mentally, and that is why the boy started to go nuts. though, I can only guess that the illness, likely with a very high fever, didn't help.
