Zombie Wolverine Actually, Poseidon is the Greek equivalent to Neptune. There are two sides to mythology, a Greek and then Roman standpoint. Since I am basing it off of Roman history, it is referred to as Neptune. Although, Poseidon and Neptune are essentially the same God.
I'd like to point out two things about "Ivan the Terrible" He was mentally unstable due to the horrific events early in his life but for a good solid 10 years he was an amazing Tsar. He led Russia to tremendous military victories expanding it to over double its original size and was putting a lot of money into libraries and education and health care. He earned the Title "Ivan the Great" Later on when he started suffering from back pain his doctors prescribed him twice daily doses of mercury...... Which that coupled with his already questionable moral compass led to him becoming Ivan the Terrible. Even so I still view him as tragic character in history just look at what happened after he killed his son (it was an accident spurred by a fit of rage which isn't that uncommon but between mercury medicine and trauma you get the picture) He was so distraught he wept and beat himself up for it for the rest of his life. He was a good man who became a victim of his own mind that was exacerbated by primitive medicinal practices.
the romans privatized the greek myths that is why so many are similar and the romans killed anyone who did not believe in there gods just ask the Christians
JerbearTheCarebear That's why you make a script. He's obviously sitting in front of a computer. You read it a couple of times ahead of time & when you read through, it's easy.
Not sure if calligula actually did this or if this was someone else, but at one time a roman emperor declared war on Neptune (the god of the sea) and got all his troops to march to the ocean and start stabbing the water
Landfish100 Off the top of my head that might have been Nero, Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus, he was pretty insane too, but just not on Caligula's level. He's the guy who "played a fiddle while Rome burned" which I considered weird since the fiddle was roughly invented or conceived sometime in the sixteenth century or so well after the fall of Rome, but you get the point he was nutty as squirrel shit.
No that was King Kanute... It was it Caligula? Kanute did it to show that even as the king he couldn't control nature. But if Caligula he did for some weird s--t
My daughter & I religiously watch his videos every saturday. We just got my daddy to start watching them 28th us. We love his lists there very educational sometimes he can get annoying but I think that's part of h is charm!
Now in skyrim, um, yeah, I think Ysgramor was just super insane. He caused the death of millions of elves and even named his beloved weapon "elf grinder" in nordic.
The picture you used of emperor Justin II is actually a picture of emperor Justinian, the emperor who reigned before Justin II. Justinian was a great ruler, and greatly expanded the Byzantine empire, including taking Rome.
Caligula also raged war against posidan so his army pretty much just ran up and speared the water. But they actually lost because some of his men and horses drowned. I named my spider after him.
+Jace Byrum Haha! You named your spider after him? That's fucking sick bro. I know what I'm naming my next lizard. Fo sho. Thanks for the inspiration, man, lol.
William Gallagher Nero was heavily narcissistic. It is believed that he started the fire in Rome, watched, sang and laughed while it raged. He also killed his mother and abused his wife, cheated on her with a public relationship with another woman, tormented her psycologically and then beheaded her and sent the head to his mistress. He then regretted her death and sought out a look-a-like that would later become his wife. The thing that makes this so insane though is that this look-a-like happened to be a man. Nero castrated him and then married him. This is just some of the shit he was up to but I think you get my point by now.
I imagine a wild and insane ruler who forced his subjects to make songs out of farts, and if the song is terrible (not including smell), he will cut their butts straight off.
I noticed that there is only 1 woman on this list. Apperently Women are more Sane then men. Unless you take Yandere-Chan for example then... yea shes f***ed up.
+Tony Long "Hello Queen Yandere-Chan. Is there anything you need?" "MY SENPAI! I WANT HIM NOW! STAY AWAY FROM MY SENPAI!" **Kills the servant** That is a place I would never live..Queen Yandere-Chan's country would be messed up XD
Not as bad as the family that feared her youngest son would be a serial killer like his father and grandfather but that fear became reality when he went on a shooting rampage
Illuminati Can you guys have Miley and Justin taken down? I know they're a part of your organisation and I think it would be in everyones best interest if they fell... Like dropped dead... *_shows 100.000.000.000$ cash_*
Phorpheria doesn't cause madness unless certain medications are given. I know because my nan and dad both have it... They have some medications because it will react and either cause mental illness or death
1:02 That's a image of Justinian I, one of the greatest leaders of eastern rome, you just need to look up Justinian and you see that image, and if you look up Justinian II, you see images of him on coins and a bearded man with a gold helmet, can you add a caption that says that you made a mistake? I'm kinda pissed of aboot it.
Jack Mace I was going to agree with Pink Guy but then realized what Matt's list was all about here. He should have made the title a little more clearer IMO.
Also try Caligula thinking himself as a Roman version of Egyptian Pharaoh in a form of an God-king who was mightier than Jupiter and because of it wanted to move the capital of the Roman Empire to Egypt
If there is going to be a part 2 you have to use Alexandru Lapusneanu(1552-1561/1564-1568). He was a Romanian ruler which at some point he beheaded 47 guests at a feast and made a pyramid out of them for "curing" his lady fear.
+chayden153 he also never pooped, was a worldwide fashion icon, walked at 3 weeks old, was born under a double rainbow, wrote over 1500 books, and the 6 best operas in history.
5:39, yes she was mad, and still she is know has "A Rainha Louca", "The Mad Queen", but she was also an excellent government woman with good advisors and ministers, and she was also keen on providing for the poor and sick, creating or improving government funded hospitals, asilums and such with the Church and local institutions. Historians say the pain of the death of her sons, more than one, many infant, and her husband, were too much for her, so she would act "normal" during the day performing her duty has queen, and afterwards rampage in mad pain.
I was about to say if Caligula wasn't on this list than he really didn't put any effort in. Another one of his antics was trying to declare war on Neptune (the Roman God of the sea). He told his soldiers to go to the ocean and stab at the water............They did that for months.
How is Vlad III of Wallachia aka "Vlad the Impaler" not on this list? He impaled 100,000 of his enemies on wooden pikes and is Braham Stoker's actual inspiration for Count Dracula
You forgot King George III, who would randomly stab his guards while singing. Or something like that. I just heard that somewhere, I don't know how credible it is. He was pretty crazy, though.
He was mentally insane and his son (George 4th) had to rule in his place as Prince Regent. He didn't believe any of his people could not love him, despite numerous crazy people trying to kill him. He wasn't violent, in fact he was a boring, peaceful person who adored gardening. He loved talking about clocks and potatoes. His relentlessly boring niceness caused fractures in his family, with all the children getting married and leaving home ASAP.
There are many theories that he was psychopathic and/or mentally ill, but I think it's also dude to lack of evidence that he's not on the list (c'mon, randomly killing 6 million Jews points to insanity)
