Yore History

Yore History covers historical documentaries in narrated 3rd person and historical fiction in 2nd person. The 2nd Person content places YOU in the role of various people throughout history in a unique and personal way!

The historical documentary series will cover the rise and fall of empires such as the Achaemenid Persian Empire, Roman Empire, Parthian Empire, Ancient Greece, Mongolian Empire, Chinese Dynasties, ancient Japan and various other empires, kingdoms and regions throughout history. In addition, it will cover unique battles and moments in history!

Both types of content while educational have a focus on epic entertainment...history is far from the boring topic some teachers taught...history is our collective past and filled with all kinds of emotions and this channel hopes to capture them!

    Opium was a very popular drug for sailors a lot of opium dens were opened to exclusively serve them. Most were never in port long enough to develop a habit but those who did had to endure pain that most people can only imagine in the holds of their ships

    Real story from 4:00 onwards: The guy is a mischievous draft gang leader and runs a trade fleet. He has three companions, who invite you on a drink at the local pub. They get you drunk, and make you sign a contract. You pass out and wake up onboard their ship. A stranger picks you up violently, then handing you the contract you signed. Congrats, you got drafted to the merchant fleet.

    Long term opiate use essentially changes how you think permanently. I cant really prove that, and I dont know if it can be proven since thought processes arent discrete things, but as someone who was on them for 20 years and who knows many people who are or have been on them, it's a subtle thing but it is there. It's like... an inability to project into the future to decide if doing something now is what you want or if it would be beneficial to you. The examples you can come up with, if you stop and try, dont encompass enough reasonable possibilities to be informative.

    "just like the men you have read about" - a historical channel thinking lowly sailors would be literate in 1600 ? 😂

  • @YoreHistory
    @YoreHistoryКүн бұрын

    Then you would be mistaken if you thought this wasn't possible. The Netherlands in the mid 17th century had the highest literacy rate in Europe at about 73% so it would have been more likely that he was literate as opposed to not being literate especially working on a farm with bookkeeping requirements. This was based on a lot of research before I wrote it :) ourworldindata.org/grapher/estimated-historical-literacy-rates I appreciate your comment though as it provides me with an opportunity to respond as others may think the same. I also list this in my citations in the description.

    People all believe the propaganda and brainwashing that the EU empires were only malign, along with the fact a truly malign empire of today does not even exist. 😢 Both of these are required for the system to work.

    @@YoreHistory I don't think you understand what fascism means, which is pathetic for a history channel. Fascism is an economic system where the interests of corporations are fused with the state, at the expense of the citizens.

    @@YoreHistory once you read the above and have been educated as to what fascism actually means, noone who is being intellectually honest could ever deny that is the USA - their entire system is about controlling the economy and systems of other nations to ensure a certain class is in charge and international corporations including their private military industry benefit, while suppressing true democracy, which is fundamentally incompatible with fascism I.e. "populism is extremely dangerous." (See Pelosi's speech at the Oxford Union.) Unless you are just not very bright 🌞 I live in a western European nation that is part of the US empire - barely a week goes by that people are not outraged as the government acts against our own interests to benefit the US and her corporations. I am guessing you are American, as you are the only people on the globe that deny you have one of the largest empires ever seen (while you militarily occupy nearly 200 countries across 800 bases. Before you say it's voluntary (no 1 no it's not - Syria etc) then tell me what happens when a nations government asks you to leave, or goes against your interests as Sweden, Holland and Australia have all had leaders who tried to.

    It would be cool if you did one of these videos from the view of a ship captain. I'm sure it would be a night and day experience.

    I was stationed at an US Air Force communications site just outside of Fukuoka (Hakata). I have been fascinated by the battles but have been unable to find factual information about these battles. The Japanese versions of these events, especially in the Hakata area was more folklore than fact. This video presented the vital pieces of information that I have been looking for over the intervening 40 years. Thank you!

    Even today, crewing agents still misrepresent what a ship or job is really like. I know because I'm a merchant marine. Once you're on the ship, you're stuck there for six months. I'm referring to ships on foreign voyages. On ships that stay within the United States, it's not uncommon for crew members to quit and walk off at the next port.
