Iranian/Persian Civilization - Parthian Empire - Part 2/3

So you think you know everything about the Romans? They gave us sophisticated road systems, chariots and the modern-day calendar. And of course they had to contend with barbarian hordes who continually threatened the peace, safety and prosperity of their Empire. Didn't they?
Terry Jones takes a completely fresh approach to Roman history. Not only does it offer us the chance to see the Romans from a non-Roman perspective, it also reveals that most of the people written off by the Romans as uncivilized, savage and barbaric were in fact organized, motivated and intelligent groups of people, with no intentions of overthrowing Rome and plundering its Empire. This is the true story of Roman history as seen by the Persians.

@sahajad Thank you, I have long said that. Romans called anyone who was not Roman barbarian, but nearly everything Rome is credited for was simply stolen, including their most famous achievement, the aqueducts.

[antonarset]

most european/american scientist were educated in greco-roman style and they can't see away from they noses. Calling others barbarian they are the real ones. They can't accept any other culture,because then the ideas of democracy, homosexualism and all other "great culture achievements" from the greco_rom. culture will be shown in their real light.

Who cares about Iran and greece today? America dominates the globe and at the time of persia it didn't even have cities. The doc is about history; how does the present affect history? Internet comment wars almost always turn into a war between a few criminally uneducated derelicts

[PatrickEngSU]

One of the top comments is that Rome stole aquaduct technology. From who was it stolen? Lots of civilizations developed different ways of transporting water. The internet community is comprised of retards. Please don't get your facts from idiots who write comments on youtube. It doesn't matter if you liked Rome or hated Rome: Rome was the most advanced western civilization until after the renaissance. Go get an education

@RAMssassin Glad you´re not not a wacko muslims. I prefer zoroastrians or mazdeists every day. Seriously, Greece is very bad today, but I still think its much better than Iran. I hope you guys get rid of Ahmadinejad and the islamic supremacists that rule you.

[RAMssassin]

@1999521 Also, about EU that u mentioned an are proud of: EU will not exist in next couple of years. Simple, rich countries like Germany ,France, and Britain cant cope with falling countries like Greece, Portegual, Spain,and Italy (and others obvly/these are the impotant ones) and cant see the euroz devaluation and other eco effects on themselves. Read more and you see and hear about discussions about EU collapse. Than there is nothing left to be proud of for Greece.
