The Bronze Age Collapse

the anax is essentially the emperor while the king is his subordinate and means the scribe.

Is the music from Civ II?

As soon as that music from Sid Myers Civilization hit i was like damn i should spam some bronze age military unit's.

the crusader kings background music 10/10

Its so amazing that i learn about all these anatolian, mesapotamian civilization and today i get to live in these ancient lands. I am a part of it, we all are a part of it...

an ancient historian job is to interwoven thge ancient east with the stories of greece. the seams looks like is on the greek-Hittaite border in western anatolia (Asia minor).
so what was actually the Trojan war? was it a mith? was it a real war? was it a mith based on an ancient war (like the fall of Ebla by Accad in 3500BCE)? and can we find the patch with the bible stories (the rise of the hebrew double kingdoms)?

Good story

Add a comment…

Nice thank you

It's like when the Spanish came and fuckd up those western hemisphere empires

There was no Palastine in the bronze era. Wasn't named Palastine until the Roman's renamed it in 135.

Exceptionally well made. History is largely verbal and that is what makes this stand out. Just listen and it's great, what picture and video you added were a bonus.

WTF is “mice & A”? 🤨

Excellent video. Thank you.

Pretty sure some of this music is from Civilization VI

Think about when religion beliefs collapse

damn. Hittites were an empire? No wonder they hated Israel's guts.

Imagine 3000 years from now furture historians talk about the internet age collapse

When famine, war and riots happen all over the place, it's easier to blame “sea peoples”, since word of mouth changes over the years.

why do you make every sentence into a question, makes it unlistenable sadly

"The Nile Delta is home to 90% of the country's population"--false. The Nile Delta is just the northernmost area of the Nile, where it joins the Mediterranean. It's true that 90% of Egypt's population lives near the Nile, but they mostly live in the Nile Valley, which runs north-south the whole length of the country, and is much bigger than the delta.

A serious factual mistake in the first 30 seconds of the video (!). Not good.

Could the Sea People's be of Nordic decent ? They conquered the mountains and the sea.

This video was four years old in 2023 and you notice how he kept mentioning Palestine?

Fascinating content but annoying and distracting narration , specifically, inappropriate pauses, voice inflection and at times unclear pronunciation.

I like the theory that the Sea Peoples were Trojan refugees.

this is AI. go fuck yourself

Yeah, I think is happened during the 1960s.

!

uhm... it wasn't Assyria until long after Mesopotamia was gone

If you are not already a professional narrator, you could be.

Great account!! Thank you

What was the major invention/change at the end of the bronze age? Iron and its weaponization ! The rest is easy to guess. Nomadic, barbaric tribes that lived on the outskirts of the bronze age cities learnt to make & use iron weapons. Civilized, easy going city dwellers addicted to safe life of relative luxory were replaced by those barbaric nomads. This happened many times in history. Thus the cities got ravaged. Sometimes with some skirmishes and sometimes they were displaced without clash. They just fled leaving their cities to the nomads.

Top notch documentary ruined by upspeak/uptalk...

spell civilization right my boy

such great information, can't say I much like the music in this one though. Annoying.

The Civ III music goes hard

It collapsed because women went topless. Everyone knows that.😏

They knew what they were they were named b the Egyptians

Yeah, they will talk about The Democracy Age Collapse that occurred during Donald Trump’s reign, bigly.

Thank you very much for this update lesson. Simple, clear and merely complete. Until the next state of arts.

"Fousand."

civ soundtrack? nice :)=

Ere was no place called palestine in the bronze age !!...

One mistake in the intro: Calling the place where today is modern Israel/Palestine in the bronze age "palestine" is a huge error and anachronistic. The appropriate name will be Canaan.

There were NO Greeks, nor Greece at that time, for centuries yet to come!...

This is the same time as the Trojan warthog was around 1200 BC.

It's crazy to think there were people who were like, "cities, yeah I remember those. Never gonna happen again."

Can't get past the accent, 3000 = free fousand

I’ve seen this video too many times
