Life of Emperor Titus #10 - The Good Emperor, Roman History Documentary Series 

Previous Emperor(Vespasian): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8x1W3LXzUN8.html

When people near their death they begin to think of their loved ones more and more. It's possible that on his death bed Titus was referring to giving leniency to his brother Domitian but it's also possible that he was referring to Berenice. He loved Berenice a lot and only sent her away because he feared what people thought about his relationship with her. However, near his death, he realized that his reign had been relatively successful and that the people would've most likely tolerated his love for Berenice. He probably regretted sending her away and considered that his life's "...one mistake."

Small mistake at 10:23. The baths highlighted are the Baths of Trajan not the Baths of Titus. The Baths of Titus are a lot smaller and located between the Trajan Baths and the Colosseum.

I know it was you, Domitian. You broke my heart. You broke my heart.

This is the best video in the series. It's been awesome to see overall quality improve with each one you release. Love your work as always man!

In his last words. I suspect he knew he had been poisoned by Domitian. And that he hadn’t had him executed when he learned he had been plotting against him.

One of my favourite Roman emperors, only a damned shame that his reign was cut so short by his untimely demise. Despite his brother Domitianus being a somewhat inscrutable individual with excessive ambitions, I personally do not believe that he poisoned Titus, as has been speculated in various histories, but in the end we will never know. Fact is that Titus' death was deeply regretted by Roman society and was a great loss for the empire. Domitianus has been seen with more benign eyes in more recent biographies, but that is another story altogether.

Thanks so much, I learned something new. Vespasian's last words were a joke, "I guess I'm becoming a god". I was never sure what that meant until now.

Amazing how a man, who was only the emperor for 2 years, is so well known and well respected some 2000 years later.

Hope this channel grows like all the famous history channels before, great work

THE MISTAKE - to sent his LOVE of his LIFE away. I think he realized that an Emperor without Love, is nothing...

Titus: "Now that I've become Emperor, I shall give the best of me in order to honor my father's memory. I will make Rome more big and magnificent than ever, and my reign will be remembered for eternity. No one will stop me. No one..." Eruption of the Vesuvius, Second Great Fire of Rome and Domitian: *AWAKEN starts playing*

His mistake was burning the jewish temple at Jerusalem.

Yessss new video!!!!! As always big up for the biographical video on one of my favorite Emperor. Titus in my opinion was a daring and bold warrior he carried out lots of impavid feats with few trusted cavalry during the Galilee campaign during the siege of Iafa, Yodfat and the bloody battle of Tarichea and was benevolent to the people of Jish. But we can't forget that he was also very brutal when he needed to restore order (the terrible siege of Jerusalem) He ruled for just few years i believe he really acted in the highest interests of the Empire to preserve it from turbulence and to secure the new dynasty, i tend to agree with conspiracy theories on the subject of his death...Domitian was not to be trusted. An interesting event during his reign was the incredible False Nero revolt a guy who looked and acted like Nero gained support in Asia and tried to rule using Nero politics lol eagerly waiting for the last Flavian video!!!

Keep up the amazing content.

What is good about him. He destroyed the beautiful Herodian temple in 70AD. His soldiers brutally and cruelly destroyed the Jewish people.

Titus probably regretted letting Domitian off the hook. That seems the most likely answer.

As a romantic, I'm going to go with another path and say it was sending away the only woman he loved.

Thank you for the video, you helped me a lot with my assignment. Very nice

I am in love with these series. You've earned a subscriber. Keep it up

Thank you, thank you, thank you for your channel. I just discovered this video and I'm going to binge watch your videos later! If I may say so, in a point of constructive criticism, I would like to make a small suggestion that would bring a big improvement in the audio segment so it would be on the same level with your great work on the visuals. I would suggest buying a condenser microphone and a pop filter, record your audio in a room with less reverb and use a compressor on the audio file (you can find it on literally any audio processing program - try reaper which is free btw). Thank you again for your awesome work!

Great job on this video! Have you ever considered doing a video on the parallels between Titus Flavius and Jesus? I used to be Christian until I learned that the whole Jesus story was likely based on the Titus story.

100% leaving his brother alive was his one mistake. Loving the videos. Keep it up!!!

Just came across this channel and I absolutely love it. I've just got done listening to Mike Duncans history of Rome which was brilliantly done but loads of inaccuracies. So to find this with all facts is great

Joseph: Titus, I come to bar... Titus: say no more, Joe. You will help me.

Titus, do it again

I really enjoy your work

Go ,Titus , go !

Great video! Thanks!

Forgot to clear his browser history.

Thanks for the video . My name is Titus so thought I'd give it a watch

As you can see, my name is Titus. I want to know the real cause of Emperor Titus death.

Maybe Titus's last words meant that he shouldn't have gone on that expedition lol. "I have made but one mistake..."

Well done!

Your best video yet. Very well done and easy to follow.

Thank you.

Letting go of love

It is very important to note that the revival of the imperial cult was the precursor for early christianity. Titus, the son, Vespasian, the father. It would be around this time that the gospels were written, in greek, based on Josephus Flavius' accounts of Vespasian's life experiences. This was an effort that culminated in the creation of Jesus, a very forgiving figure who honoured Rome by giving unto Caesar what is Caesar's etc.etc. This in an effort to passify Judean agression, which worked incredibly well and would later serve political needs so effectively that religion replaced armies to keep civil order and obedience with Constantive adopting christianity as the only state religion.

The best Roman Emperor

Vespasian wasn't just proclaimed emperor. He made sure that they would proclaim him emperor by placing the North African bread basket under his protection which resulted in bread riots and the fall of his predecessor (he was already on his way out though, only an idiot billets his troops in civilians houses and then dies nothing as they pillage the capital). Also, every other pretender to the throne marched on Rome, Vespasian was the only one to realize that he could take Rome by going in the opposite direction.

P.S. the Western wall or Kotel is the correct name for the "Walling wall". Walling wall is a western name given to the wall due to the way the Jews pray towards it and is not appropriate name used in Jerusalem.

I think that the mistake was the destruction of the temple especially since he had feelings for a Jewess, other than that another mistake could have been getting rid of his lover.

Either it was Domitian or he really loved that eastern princess and regretted sending her away.

Most people on their death beds think of their loved ones. My speculation is that the "My one mistake" that Titus was referring to is not marrying the love of his life. Bernice perhaps?

...oooh...getting out of bed that morning ?... you don't know what life has planned for you each day

Nice video 👍

The most based Emperor

Great vid!

Without hardly a doubt, a 41 year old noble wouldn’t get “sick” by any disease all by himself and die on the spot. Therefore, the only conclusion is that he was poisoned and the only possible suspect was his ambitious brother, no rocket science here. So, that’s the only mistake he might have been referring to. While one shouldn’t murder a brother to secure your throne, one certainly hang him if there’s proof of treason, brother or no brother, because the only penalty for that is death. So, I would say that he actually made two mistakes, not executing his treasonous brother, and not learning a valuable lesson that cost his best friend life by Agrippina, who happens to be a long lost relative of Billary. 😂

I think it's impossible for us to guess Titus's mistake, because if he had a typically Roman attitude it would be some oracle he had disregarded or some rite he had neglected. The Romans were a very religious people, and also superstitious. When we assume they would think as we do, we misunderstand them.

Great video. I imagine the so-called Black "Israelites" will be very disappointed and offended with your historically accurate depiction of ancient Roman and Israelites' skintone.

I read somewhere that it’s possible that Titus might have slept with Domitian’s wife, what do you think about that theory?

You guys did an outstanding job. I never heard just how many died before Vespasian. That was convoluted. Titus last words are difficult to discern since I know almost nothing about his life and how he thought. But my guess is that he was lamenting something of a philosophical nature. Perhaps that he had no children? Or that he failed to marry the woman he loved, which is my guess. But it could be something else, something mundane. Or some civic work upon which he wished to embark but didn't find time. For my money it is sending his lover away that bothered him. Perhaps he wanted children with her? Thanks for doing such a detailed and yet concise rendering of the life of this little known Emperor. Romanus Pax Usque in Aeternum

thank you

Wonder if Titus would've ended up like Tiberius. Amazing in the beginning, vile in the end. I somehow doubt it but Rome had a way of turning good-intentioned men into monsters.

Leaving Domitian in Rome and in power.

He was always a good kid unlike his little brother.

Was killed by Turkish warrior ertugrul resurrection in 13th century who was the founder of ottoman empire who vanished Roman empires and ruled the world for 600 years

Titus is also famous for a hairstyle named after him. He was apparently the first to have very short hair, and it became a fashion.

God bless Titus

Titus, we've all been there mate: Letting 'the one' get away, and having to live the rest of our lives living with that awful fact,

Possibly he thought his one mistake was trusting his brother; who had him poisoned. Another possibility could be he was mistaken to have left Rome; in it he was safe with his partnership with the Pretorians. We won’t ever know but I love your videos been here since your first one! Keep it up amigo and stay healthy!!

Great voice acting!!!!

His one mistake was destroying the Jewish Temple which led to the institution of Christianity

Are you going to be covering the Byzantine emperors

Titus was too kind for his own good! Ref-Domitian.

Such A shame he was poisoned

It is distressing to see the words 'good emperor' and Titus in the same paragraph. He was magnanimous to some of his subjects during hard times, but so was Nero, arguably the worst emperor ever. Titus is considered by some little better than Adolf H. as, according to Josephus, he exterminated more(considering the ancient times) than AH did. He desecrated the 2nd Temple and some attribute that, and holy retribution, for his very short reign as emperor...

While rome got hit by several plagues i must assume he got poisoned by his brother as he regreted not neutralizing his brother while he could.

Well, taken into consideration of the well documented historical accounts of Roman history, by various Roman historians, that one can only assume that it would be, without a doubt the modus operdi of Roman cloak and dagger Style of emperor succession.

The mistake was most definitely something to do with the poisoning or suspicion of poisoning, as an Emperor i think he wanted to do something as an Emperor at the end and that was to critique his work with one mistake and to point that to people, that he made only one mistake. Like his father has wanted to stand as an Emperor, Emperor to the end.

What do you mean he even drank from the same cup as Britannicus out of sympathy?? He drank it after he died?? I thought they weren’t sure it was a poisoning? And why would he attempt to kill himself? I would assume he drank from it by accident…?

Aka Jesus Christ the superstar

My name is Titus to let’s go

I dont thin domiatian killed his brother. A lot of people think that but it most likely not true. The thing most people forget is that the wealthy people and senators wrote the history and not the truth. Its most likely Britannicus died of a epelapsie attack. His father suffered also from that sickness and so did he. When he died during dinner Nero and Aprippina didn't move or where choked. If they would have killed them they would have acted that they would be chocked. Britannicus had most likely a epelepsie attack and he died of that. Because he had this attacks quite often Nero and his mother didn't do anything because they thought it will go over in a miniut like it does every time

He left the stove on

Having switched from scotch to martinis? 😁

He made one mistake: not marrying his sweetheart and killing his brother as a wedding gift for himself.

Ave Divus Titus!

Agrappina didn’t poison Britannicus it was Nero so that his mother couldn’t use him as leverage.

Bigger men then you have doubted Josephus and were wrong, and where you place the temple was wrong as well

The best 7. Top 7 I'm order, emperors I think. 7. Titus 6. Hadrian 5. Antionius pius 4. Marcus Areliuas 3. Aurelian 2. Augustus 1. Trajan

It was the Partian girl he was in love with but he sent her away when he gave in to the pressure of the aristocrats, he should of gave up the vanity to rule for Love , he wouldn't got poisoned... afterwards, He knew he screwed up.

His one mistake was dying.

to be honest, I kinda doubt it was Domitian, most of what he did as an emperor was decent. The senate took a lot of effort to make him look bad because he snubbed them so much.

His mistake: He allowed worship of himself as a god.

Titus was talking about dumping Berenice from a romantic point of view. However, from a pragmatic point of view he realised he should have killed his brother. I think Titus and Vespasian are amongst the cleverest emperors they ever had so if Titus got outwitted, most of us wouldn't have made it either. We need to think other enemies of that family...

Going against israel and god that was a huge mistake

I agree with the opinion of Evolvedtyrant, just below

He mistakes his brother for having compassion like himself?🤪… I share the same birthday as Titus!

i think tituses' mistake was voting for JOE BIDEN!

Rosebud.

He and Vespasian were the Good Emperors before the Good Emperors.

When will you release the Domitian video?

The voice over has no drama. Almost slept off

Not bashing his brother or killing him. Bashing his love because she had royal blood from Judea.

You can thank me now

I'll tell you what from what I have seen through these videos a Roman emperor is what I would want to he last if someone isn't trying to poison me theree a rebellion somewhere then the praetorian guard need a daily hand job from me just to make sure they do thier job or a general somewhere trying to overthrow me all while tryna keep the people happy. Fuck all that I'd settle for a blacksmith or a scribe

I suppose Titus would have finished his speech with a one liner like. I have made one mistake in my life, I should have kept that food in the microwave longer. But in all seriousness it could be his regrets of not having a son or pushing his lover away, maybe remorse for a man he wrongly convicted. Or maybe he pooped himself in his bed before he died.

In his last words, it might that he hadn't taken action against his brother or maybe that he had to give up his eastern wife
