Ancient Rome The Rise And Fall Of An Empire: Revolution 4

[Kershtarel]

Quite an intergalactic troupe we have here!

A senator that sounds like Yoda, if he had an evil twin.

And Gurney Haleck as Roman General.

Stay tuned for Praetor Kirk and Oracle as Oracle.

[spruss929]

was this before or after julius ceaser

[iamZcdnman7]

@spruss929 before

[ASaxonAtHeart]

@spruss929 Being a nerd who loves to throw knowledge at people, may I give you a quick low-down on the chronology of Rome? Yes? Excellent.

Rome was initially ruled by kings, who were tyrannical as all kings were in that era, and so they were thrown out. After that came the Republic in which this is set. Near the end of this era the Roman army as we know it was established. Then Caesar took power, and was followed by Augustus who was the first of the Emperors, who ruled for about 450 years.

[spruss929]

@ASaxonAtHeart thank you the only thing is why would they make this (the name) revolution if Cesar was the reveloutionary ik this guy was a reveloutionary but he didn't even finish his Cesar deserves that episode

[ASaxonAtHeart]

@spruss929 Whilst Caesar did launch a revolution of sorts, I think it is here is to point out how the "working class" was rising up against the aristocracy. Usually when we think of revolutions we think of things like the 18th C French one and 20th C Socialist ones, so the phrase is associated with poor vs rich, weak vs powerful etc. With Caesar it was less rising up against oppressors and more taking advantage of a situation to gain immense political power. It was a very different circumstance

[Chansulus]

@ASaxonAtHeart that is your opinion .

[timmehtimmehtimmehti]

@spruss929 before, this lead to the Julius

[leegeorgeson]

lol sounds just like a Republican lol

[BarbarianBadAss]

for those of you who don't those barberians where the celtaberians a celtic people

[NorceCodine]

Barbarian was then simply a term for a foreigner who didn't speak Greek. Educated Romans may looked down on these people, but they also admired strongly, for example, the Germanic tribes because of their hardiness and vitality that reminded them of their own ancestors. That duality is always lost in translation today.

[EliManningFan896]

He speaks without moving his damn lips.... That is so weird.

[ChangaThacua]

I love that senator's voice XD

[wheelori814]

rome was a republic? didnt know that.

[lewisgunner1]

How are the new mintines barbarians they are spanish spain was a greek colony the only real barabrians are from gaul germany and britian

[muf321]

@lewisgunner1 romans called everyone else barbarians, im certain they called the carthagians barbarians when we know this to not be true

[lewisgunner1]

did they call greek barbarians

[muf321]

@lewisgunner1 i don't think they called the greeks barbarians cause they imported a lot from the greeks, including this whole calling everyone else barbarians, the greeks called people like the persians and even the macedonians, who were just northern greeks, barbarians. pretty much if u weren't one of them u were a barbarian, (greeks called romans "western barbarians")

[lewisgunner1]

Macedonians are the greeks its because of them greek culutured spread throughtout the world Persians are known today as Middle eastern or Muslims.Romans are Helenestic so they are not barbarians.Spaniards are also helenestic they use the short sword like the Romans,and Greeks they are Helenestic.I read online that Spain was Greek colony well mostly like near the coast they newmintes were eh like kinda barbarians its like when the Greeks met the Etruscans the Etruscans were Greeks

[muf321]

@lewisgunner1 today we know that none of these peoples were barbarians but back then most cultures had an "our culture is the best " attitude, like there is a reason the chinese called themselves the "middle kingdom". And yes the greeks built many colonies around the mediterrean

[lewisgunner1]

yes friend they Helenstic idea rules much of the world today it is the number 1# way for a human to live

[lewisgunner1]

dude relax im 13 calm down

[FeelingBeautiful]

@lewisgunner1 Well if you are 13, I apologize. To be your age and to at least have an interest history is excellent. However, keep up the good work and check for facts. Read different books on history and not just rely on one source. To distort history is a great lost for our future. I will remove my comment.

[lewisgunner1]

thanks I been interested in History since I was a little boy idk why but it just fascinated me so many different cultures in the world so many different ways of life so many civilizations to learn from so many empires so many wars I been most fascinated by warfare idk why yet but I just am especially the Romans the Greeks Medieval and modern combat I know stuff that I shouldn't know until next year like world war two

[FeelingBeautiful]

@lewisgunner1 You are a young wise man with an old soul. To be young eager about learning is very fascinating about you. I admire you for that and I'm happy for you because you will never grow bored in life with a hungry mind.

: )

[lewisgunner1]

yes where are you from let me guess England

[FeelingBeautiful]

@lewisgunner1 I am of the: Samnites, Oscans, Marsi, and Latin tribes. I'm of Italian stock of Campania. My family settled in Colorado, state of the mountains, U.S.A. You should look at my profile you will see a lot of love for my Italian heritage. Where are you from? England ?

[lewisgunner1]

I am from the united states and I am descented from spanish Italian heritage my parents are mexican my dad seems to be a pure Spanish but my mother is mixed between spanish and Italian because of my grandpa

[FeelingBeautiful]

@lewisgunner1 Yes, many Italians migrated to Mexico from Venice, Italy. They kept their Italian language and culture while living in Mexico from what I understand.

[lewisgunner1]

yup if you take away the eagle from the Mexican flag you get the Italian flag

[FeelingBeautiful]

@lewisgunner1 You should have an Aztec pyramid on your flag instead. There is only one Italy. Have to go now. You seem like a good kid. Keep up the good work.



[lewisgunner1]

@FeelingBeautiful jajajaaja you are funny I dont think I have aztec in my blood I believe I am Descented from Italians and Spanish as my family tells me all the time which I do believe in since my last name is Italian

[BarbarianBadAss]

@lewisgunner1 there was no such thing as spainish there where the iberians and celtaberians, the celtaberians where a celtic people from gaul who came to spain in the sixth century bc

[lewisgunner1]

@BarbarianBadAss okie dokie then thanks they're northern right

[BarbarianBadAss]

@lewisgunner1 well yeah

[SinOfAugust]

Dressed up in full soldier's armour, they let them into the senate house? lol?

[AMAGAD911]

ok im pretty sure that senate fucker is a sith lord

[Elenrai]

@AMAGAD911 The senate=Jedi's with a lot of fucking class?

[samson4474]

I wish I could get away with wearing armor like that all the time. I would have constant abs. And maybe even hard nipples.

[lewisgunner1]

holy shit at 5:06 that dude said young one it sounded like yoda

[Kingofsomething87]

Why are all the plebs brown. The Romans were not brown. The BBC series portray the Roman commoners as indian looking. This is completely inaccurate. And even if it was, I dont want to see brown Romans.

[lewisgunner1]

at 4:15 thats yoda

[satiseloquentia]

epic eyebrows

[paulyhart]

oh! betrayal, even in your favor, stings.

[mcvdigital]

why is the guy pinching his titties the entire time at 4:00

[cbizrap]

that one senator played the professor in teenage mutant ninja turtles 2...

[999skyler]

@cbizrap and TITANIC

[hateUhuman]

if yoda was a sithlord of the darkside he will sound just like this grumpy senator on this tv history series

[adolfolicious]

That was a bitch move Tiberious, making promises he cannot keep.

[3baxcb]

@adolfolicious That or die with 20,000 men in the middle of Spain by an enemy dismissed as barbarians but able to outmaneuver them.

[asemaq]

yes he did :-))))

[tsalikj]

mmmmmmmmmm tiberius is shexyyyy

[2242bzo]

Did they always have to wear a helmet? I wouldn't wear one. It looks sorta heavy and it would mess up my hair, and besides, I wouldn't need one because I'M THE BADDEST MOTHER FUCKER IN THE LAND!!! YEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!

[Dalbert342]

@2242bzo With your attitude you would probably ended up being the deadest motherfucker in the land lol

[2242bzo]

@Dalbert342 Sticks and stones may break my bones, but your mom will always fuck me.

[Dalbert342]

@2242bzo wow,didn't know you were into necrophilia...you are sick,dude

[2242bzo]

@Dalbert342 Why is your mom dead? Sorry. But sure, I'll bang her, still. If you insist.........

[613bo]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLl True!

[GILR8]

[zabbabou]

JohnHolt69 how did you now it was me??

[zabbabou]

now that i live in europe i know what its all about ...but back then we wanted to work in movie industry ,and they did all they want with us ...and its still happening there i tunisia and marocco etc....

[JohnHolt69]

Guy with a Falcata behind the Numantian chieftain. Nice detail.

[3baxcb]

@JohnHolt69 The better to hack a Roman arm with.

[212commandercody]

The senate looks like the senate in RTW

[UserNameForYeeTube]

"The senate" was the collegium of senators, there was no specific building for the senate, they met at different locations, even if they preferred some.

[ImperialGuard9001]

Only more corrupted xD

[zabbabou]

thats not even a movie and itnever became big....so they just used us

[hatermenkind]

asshole of rome the senator

[zabbabou]

it was filmed in tunisia ; north africa...and the soldiers were paid the equivalent of 7 dollars a day ...some junk food and free transport from the set to the city...assholes made money ith oue sweat...

[hc8719]

Umm that's more than movie set extras make. An extra is someone who does a minor role in a movie in return for being in a movie

[kimpunkrock]

thats terrible! Over here we get sometimes 100 dollars a day! I am so sorry. I myself HATE hollywood and the fascists they are.

[Rahab111222]

How come our evil republican senator's don't have cool grumpy voices like this one? :/

[sollibop]

Did the grumpy senator do the voice for yoda?

[cgavin1]

He was dying at the time. That was his last role, in every sense.

[BloodlinePaintball]

@sollibop haha it does sound like yoda

[Hotshotter3000]

@sollibop Unless that's Frank Oz, then the answer is no.

[lewisgunner1]

[lewisgunner1]

[GAZANUTYUN]

@sollibop

Holy shit, it is Yoda, isn't it . . .

[ImperialGuard9001]

[lewisguner1]

[lewisgunner1]

[lewisgunner1]

@zabbabou really you were in this series

[supcom117]

at 5:09 he sounds like Yoda

[onesevenfiveone]

I was about to post that as well. It was quite funny, adding comedial value to an otherwise serious documentary.

[danxtur]

too bad he is not talking backwords.

[zabithezabi]

WTF?

[Plotinus2112]

why isn't gaius in this video at all

[halo3freak678]

[EbsNhexz]

He was very young during all of this, still should be some sign of his existance though.

[manbearpig2694]

there are 2 videos with the same name but different people in them
