🏝️ Exploring the Pacific: The Great Ocean - Welcome to our first episode on the Pacific Ocean and the cultures that explored and settled on the island chains. We'll be talking about the three sections of the Pacific: Micronesia, Melanesia, and Polynesia. But before we can talk about the people, we have to talk about the ocean itself. The Pacific Ocean was nicknamed the Peaceful Ocean by Ferdinand Magellan, but nothing could be farther from the truth. Ringed by volcanoes, and resting over several tectonic plates, the Pacific Ocean is vast, deep, and a hotspot for earthquakes and tsunamis.

Pacific Ocean: I am surrounded by a Ring of Fire. I bring tsunamis and earthquakes to every coast I touch. Only the bravest sailors dare to travel my waters. Ferdinand Magellan: Cool.

@BlueflameKing1 4 года назад

The 'Peaceful' Ocean? Coming from someone who has lived in Hawaii for a long time, that is not accurate, especially when we have a tsunami Siren and on regular 3-5 Hurricane warnings between May and October. None really hit us, but we are still on guard. We have learned more about space then we have our oceans, like from videos I have seen, we barely know about 10% of our oceans. There are also signs that early on in history, Hawaii other islands had trade with South America. Pacific sailors have been proclaimed as some of the greates explorers for great reason. They are like reverse Vikings, they actually knew what they were doing and where they were going, no offense to vikings.

Just so you understand why it was given that name: in the Iberian Peninsula, we are big fans of ironic and sarcastic nicknames.

@SaiyanHeretic 4 года назад

To be fair, sailing the Atlantic isn't exactly a walk in the park either. There's a good reason it took so long for Europeans to strike westward, and not because they thought the world was flat. (The Ancient Greeks figured that out, like, centuries before the birth of Christ.) So at first blush, yeah, the Pacific does look a lot calmer, if your culture doesn't revolve around intimate knowledge of navigating it.

@odd-eyes6363 4 года назад

I thought it was given the "Pacific" name because it was harder to pick up winds to move the ships in the first European expeditions, compared to the Atlantic at least

@untruelie2640 4 года назад

@@JohnnyElRed No, Magellan was quite sincere about the name. When he first entered the new ocean, he had just passed through the strait which was later named after him. And these waters (like the one's around Cape Hoorn) are very unpleasant. Compared to this, this sea was indeed an "oceanus pacificus", a "peaceful ocean".

@AngryKittens 4 года назад

Austronesia. Micronesia was settled separately. Polynesians are descendants of the Lapita culture from Melanesia. All of them are Austronesians. You forget that the main "home base" of Austronesians is Island Southeast Asia. And they didn't just go east. They went west too, to Madagascar, all the way across the entire Indian Ocean. Austronesians built the first maritime ships. But I bet that rarely gets mentioned in maritime history books, if at all. The focus is always on western ships or worse, erroneously credit the Chinese as being the "master shipbuilders" who sailed the Maritime Silk Road to the point of claiming that Zheng He was the first Asian to reach Africa, and the basis for China's claim on the South China Sea. Which is laughable considering that 1. The Chinese did not build sea-worthy sailing ships until 900 AD, and they copied their designs from Srivijayan Jongs. 2. the maritime silk road was established originally by Austronesians to trade with India and China; 3. Malagasy are clearly Austronesians, and they reached Madagascar at least 1400 years before Zheng He.

Great to see that the Pacific migrations are getting some love! But please try to make this not too America centric.... In the pacific, the maps are generally Pacific centred (the atlantic is that edges and the Americas are at the far right), and we use the metric system. Hawai'i is important, but so are places like Papua New Guinea (the largest, most populous, and most diverse Pacific country) Kind regards A kiwi.

@AngryKittens 4 года назад

Heck, I'd be happy if they just trace the entire Austronesian migration. From Taiwan to Island Southeast Asia, to Micronesia, Melanesia, and Madagascar. They always just focus on Polynesia. As if Polynesians were the only Austronesians who sailed. ALL Austronesians sailed. Micronesia was the first long-distance sea voyage by Austronesians. Followed by the voyages to Madagascar. The trade routes to India, China, Persia, and Eastern Africa. THEN Polynesia.

@TheMichigami 4 года назад

@@aduckwithgrapes9572 government wanted a remote place to blow up nukes, saw tiny islands with only "undeveloped people" living there, and "temporarily relocated" them never to let them return home. sometimes, they didn't even bother to move them, and you can find pictures of what the radiation burns and fallout did to the locals on islands they bombed near. lots of the islands are still either too destroyed, too toxic, or too radioactive for any living thing let alone humans to return there for any length of time. Most of the marshall islands now have the added problem of climate change flooding the crappily-buried bomb waste dumps, making the surrounding ocean dangerous while the islands are sinking as the oceans rise around the occupied islands swallowing entire towns. ye olde propanganda films of the bikini relocation are horrible to watch in retrospect, the whole "oh they're happy to leave, they're all nomadic people anyway, look at those smiles, they know its for the good of uncle sam and american safety!" voiceovers.
