The rise and fall of the Assyrian Empire - Marian H Feldman 

okay wait a min are you saying Israel!!! it must be Palestine, care in what your uploading!

Mohammed Elwan yea Israel wasn't even a thing back then! 😕

Can you please make a part 2, cause I am really interested in this topic as well as others.

you guyz are awesome!!

That no human can govern themselves never mind their people. Please do Babylon and keep up the awesome work.

Historians to would be conquerers: If y'all could leave those libraries alone, that'd be great.

Only idiots destroys knowledges and books.

Burning wont destroy such ancient libraries. There was no paper back then.

@Diva p How does it relate here??

In this case, burning the library may well be what preserved it! Clay tablets in ancient Mesopotamia were not traditionally fired, so being subjected to such a fire actually made them more durable and likely to survive for millennia. Later libraries would suffer much more greatly, since their texts were on paper or parchment.

the problem is: almost nobody is really interested in that. the mass of the people don't even know that Assyria existed. The best chance to see Assyria on the big screen was Will Smiths plan for a movie about the pharaoh Taharqa. But it remained a project only.

It's like people who control hollywood hate them. Really makes you think tho

Not even enough greek movies or (roman for that matter.)

@@josip3808 what

I think a major problem is the casting. Like Gods of Egypt, 300, Exodus: Gods and Kings, Clash of the Titans, Cleopatra, or The Immortals? What’s with all the American and British actors? 🤷‍♂️ It’s very rare to see a historical film with actors that are casted that actually look like the people they’re portraying. Usually investors don’t want to gamble their money on a movie they think audiences won’t watch. I think they should give it a go and see what happens, but I’m alone on that one.

cuz of the wars in iraq. D:

They just hate us Iraqis

@@prostation3844 most iraqis are arabs, not mesopotamian

@@ompskatelitty5356 you can't just say they're arabs just because they speak Arabic the Arabic tribs made them speak Arabic we also have a lot of Mesopotamian words that we still use

@@prostation3844 assyrians are a minority and they're not arabic at all (unless they're mixed ofc), but the majority of iraq's population is arabic rather than assyrian.

@Faris Fasil Of course. Assyrians are indigenous people. They should have the right to keep their identity, and part of their identity is their homeland. If you dont think they should have a state, give me a good and legitimate reason why they shouldnt have it.

@Faris Fasil They are literally the same people just different identity. Babylonian came after Assyrian Empire fell, and Akkadians are people who preceded Assyrians. There are Assyrians today who still read and write Sumerian cuneiform, and Akkadian tribe was part of Sumerian civilization before they revolted to create Akkadian Empire. Go to Iraq and Syria and ask anyone who the original people are, they will tell you its Assyrian. How come they know this, and you dont?

​@Faris Fasil No, Assyrians are older and they conquered Babylon. When Assyrian Empire fell, Babylonians created Babylonian Empire. Please educate yourself and then comment. Assyrians didnt remove any culture, we were the only people preserving Sumerian culture until modern day and now many people worldwide are helping to do the same. Islamic people erase cultures, thats why nobody knows about pre-islamic history in Saudi Arabia for example, this is why people like you want to discredit Assyrians because we know what they are hiding from the world.

Assyrians dont exist anymore. The persians demolished and made them go extinct. More than 2000 years ago. So whatever was left of their ppl, language and culture got lost with the extinction. Its Historical facts. The ppl of today who call themselves "Assyrians" are actually Syriac arameans. They are not assyrians. They themselves identified as arameans until beginning of last century when there was a power conflict within the syriac aramaic church which made some ppl want to exclude themselves from the church and from their own identity. How? By renaming themselves Assyrians so they would seclude themselves as far as possible from and remove all ties with the Jacobite Syriac aramaic church. However this renaming is weird and wrong. You cant just claim a name that belongs to someone else...and this is a fake rebirth of the Assyrian name 2000 years after the extinction of Assyrians...hope this clarified. The ppl calling themselved Assyrians are not the real assyrians of history. They are actually Syriac Aramaic...and the language theu speak is not Assyrian.. its Aramaic .

Good eye, MorfeoRenaissance! Romans eventually phased out using the phalanx, but from the founding of their city-state until the close of the 2nd century BC, the Romans found the Greek-style phalanx suitable for fighting in the plains of Latium. (Before they transitioned to the more well known legion). Love finding history buffs here in the comments! :)

TED-Ed Phalanx of hoplitaes not pikemen as far as I know. And between that and legions they also used manipular formation.

Hello TED-Ed

TED-Ed The sarissa was never used by the kingdom of Rome. Well, at least it wasn't widely used since there are only two (I could be mistaken but meh) Roman sarissas in the whole Latium dated before 300aC. On the contrary there are many archeological findings, near Tursculum and Tuscia, that show us spears and oval Etruscan shields in use by the Roman warbands. Tldr: were there roman warbands that used sarissas? Maybe. I wouldn't bet on it. Was that common? Nah. But the original point is: what is the point of showing "roman phalanxes" when Rome is worldwide famous to this day for the legions? It was just a writing error, that's all. No need to justify it.

James Rizzoo wait I’m confused what do you mean they remained Christian? Assyrian empire existed before Christianity.

Jessica S Assyrians were pagan during their time and they still existed after their empire collapsed, they weren't wiped out as many would think. Assyrians were one of the first people to convert to Christianity and still practice it to this day.

Did you ever play his game Nationstates? www.nationstates.net you build your government and deal with many different factors of ruling and deciding how things are to be done. It's a great example of what he is trying to teach about power, freedom and the extremes people can fall into.

Ali Reis the Assyrians fell because Assurbanipal's sons started a civil war to determine the succession of the Empire. While the Babylonians and Medes prepared to attack.

@@vlorevelceaschur people are semitic they come from arabe desert, arabe today are also semitic. that mean both people are the same. and info you need to know about arabs that live in arabia peninsula without yemen there father is Ibrahim, and Ibrahim was originally from Iran at that time from Babylon or Assyria.

My theory is that part of it is from within. A desire that no one get what "we had" without earning it. Usually the invader is stronger but not smarter than the invaded, so people without the knowledge of the ancients, but that they had a grand empire might ask some who remain and have preserved a fraction of what was lost to lead. Then there the is the factor of religious texts and documents on other forms of government being present in those libraries, a dangerous thing to those who hold power. If people can read these things and learn on there own another way, then the leaders they have now could be toppled. A monarchy is only secure if the King is the only one who knows how to throw it down. Then there is the factor of location, many libraries were built along walls and when the walls went, well there goes the library. In a desire to win, well they just kept going and didn't bother to pick the books back up or read them. Which is why several ancient texts were literally found to be stomped on.

It's not necessarily that it's all destroyed. Likely much of it was taken during the sacking and sold to others. But we just don't have records of those works remaining today. This was likely made more likely that knowledge would be lost due to the fact that few people knew how to read or write and materials to do so was quite expensive.

Very good point.

Hùng Nguyễn Quốc I completely agree. This is why we lost more knowledge than we ever had, because wars destroy everything for resources and people for power, though the knowledge from generations before pass on to us is eliminated I assume is to keep us in fragile state not to revolt. Opposed rise to oppressors, winners right history, the strong devour weak, endless cycle have we not learned from history. We keep making same mistakes me learn very little and call it something different though it may look, sound, feel better, does not make it true. Humanity will be free of mind body and spirit once we end wars, borders, oppression, slavery, gender inequality, status and value of life.

~ 2 Kings 17:24-41 Then The King Of Assyria Brought People From Babylon, Cuthah, Ava, Hamath, And From Sepharvaim, And Placed Them In The Cities Of Samaria Instead Of The Children Of Israel; And They Took Possession Of Samaria And Dwelt In Its Cities. And It Was So, At The Beginning Of Their Dwelling There, That They Did Not Fear The Most HigH YEHOVA; Therefore The ELoHIM Sent Lions Among Them, Which Killed Some Of Them. So They Spoke To The King Of Assyria, Saying, “The Nations Whom You Have Removed And Placed In The Cities Of Samaria Do Not Know The Rituals Of The ELoHIM [YEHOVA] Of The Land; Therefore HE HAS SENT Lions Among Them, And Indeed, They Are Killing Them Because They Do Not Know The Rituals Of The ELoHIM [YEHOVA] Of The Land.” Then The king Of Assyria Commanded, Saying, “Send There One Of The Priests Whom You Brought From There; Let Him Go And Dwell There, And Let Him Teach Them The Rituals Of The ELoHIM [YEHOVA] Of The Land.” Then One Of The Priests Whom They Had Carried Away From Samaria Came And Dwelt In Bethel, And Taught Them How They Should Fear The ELoHIM [YEHOVA]. However Every Nation Continued To Make (gods) Of Its Own, And Put Them In The Shrines On The (high places) Which The Samaritans Had Made, Every Nation In The Cities Where They Dwelt. The Men Of Babylon Made Succoth Benoth, The Men Of Cuth Made Nergal, The Men Of Hamath Made Ashima, And The Avites Made Nibhaz And Tartak; And The Sepharvites Burned Their Children In Fire To Adrammelech And Anammelech, (The gods Of Sepharvaim). So They Feared The ELoHIM [YEHOVA], And From Every Class They Appointed For Themselves Priests Of (the high places), Who Sacrificed For Them In The Shrines Of (the high places). They Feared The ELoHIM [YEHOVA] The Most HigH, Yet Served Their Own (gods) According To The Rituals Of The Nations From Among Whom They Were Carried Away. To This Day They Continue Practicing The Former Rituals; They Do Not Fear The ELoHIM [YEHOVA], Nor Do They Follow Their Statutes Or Their Ordinances, Or THE LAW AND COMMANDMENT Which The ELoHIM [YEHOVA] HAD COMMANDED [The Children Of Jacob], Whom HE Named Israel, With Whom The ELoHIM [YEHOVA] HAD MADE A COVENANT AND CHARGED Them, SAYING: “You Shall Not Fear Other elohims, Nor Bow Down To them, Nor Serve them, Nor Sacrifice To them; But The YEHOVA, [ELoHIM AND SAVIOR] WHO BROUGHT You UP From The Land Of Egypt With GREAT POWER And AN OUTSTRETCHED ARM, HIM You Shall Fear, HIM You Shall Worship, And To HIM You Shall Offer Sacrifice.

therealdude Dude there's more than 200,000 of us wtf? There's at least 500,000 just in Iraq, not counting Syria, Lebanon, and Jordan. Also, about 2 million in diaspora

Binary-Technique Bro, 500,000 is nothing comparing to say 1 billion Indians, 1 billion Chinese. And also when you set up a diaspora out of the Middle-East intermixing can happen if the next generation doesn't care about their tradition and the native numbers will drop man :(. please grow in natives man pls to atleast 10 million

therealdude God willing, we need help though, we are all ready to migrate back but we are lobbying for at least an autonomous region to ensure safety. U.S., Europe, and the Vatican have pledge close to 50 million just to rebuild infrastructure for Assyrians, not counting millions going into training our militias. Slowly but surely we will make our ancestors proud of us again

because American's know nothing.

Maybe because the Romans used the same tactic. Ever think of that?

They did not, romans favoured the short sword over the pike.

Even if they did, when you try to represent something through a picture, usually you put a picture that better represents what you're talking about. If you're talking about birds, you dont put a picture of a lizard. Yeah, they are related. At some point birds were dinosaurs wich are usually thought of as lizards... but how about you put a picture of a bird instead? Ever think of that?

Benedict Manzin obviously you need to do some research because the Romans did use it they actually learned it from the Greeks and improved on it hence why the original used shields that were round the Romans used tower shields which covered more of their bodies and also improved the turtle manouver.

Where do you live

Iraqi Arabs are indigenous too, just because their ancestors adopted Arab customs, language, religion and identity doesn't make their blood any less native.

@Ali Reza Assyrian is not the native tongue of the entirety of Iraq either, they were conquerors and enslavers too did you not know? Cultures and identities are fluid and they change, at the whim of the tides of history. This is natural, no point going back to a language your ancestors were also forced to speak thousands of years ago.

@@Threezi04 It actually does - Arab-Iraqi DNA has been shown to not be related to Ancient-Assyrian DNA, whilst on the other hand modern Assyrians have been shown to have the closest DNA to the Ancient peoples that used to live there - thus - showing Assyrians are the natives, whilst the Arabs are more Arabian than Mesopotamian 😊

@@Narla14215 You're still wrong, Iraqi Arabs do not have similar DNA to Assyrians because Assyrians only ever lived in North Mesopotamia, which has always been distinct from the south. Iraqi Arabs descend from such peoples as the Sumerians, Babylonians and Akkadians, and it's been proven by dna analysis.

their Greek mercenaries used it, if you were a normal soldier in the legion you would not use it as it relied on all your brothers having the same weapon. thus the Romans who equipped themselves usually took up short swords with javelins. Yes they might have used it as a center to their line but not in their traditional legions
