Could you make a video on Artemisia I of Caria?
Last time i "showed" my love i caught charges. So not this time.
I love Roman history!❤
Awesome stuff! I have a few suggestions for your next videos
1. Wong Fei Hung (Kung Fu master)
2. Antonio Luna (Filipino general)
3. Michael Collins (Irish revolutionary)
4. Asiong Salonga (Filipino gangster)
Thank you.
DUDE YOU HAVE A PICTURE OF EGYPTIAN THEBES AT @16:14 THERE IS ANOTHER GREEK THEBES. Great video otherwise.
damn, how did the egyptian Thebes end up in this? 😜
Love your videos dude you're a good host.
I would love to see one on Michael Collins Irish rebel leader 1920s thanks team
Betrayed by his own brother. Dang.
Still hoping to see a Joseph Merrick Biographics video.
“Yes we are twelve years old” 🤣🤣😍😍🤣🤣
Thanks for the information
Great video 😊❤ it's actually "A-KEM-in-id" empire.
A Sheppard with lur ethnicity told the Greeks how to cross the Zagros mountains which was one of the main obstacles that kept them from getting to the capital of Persia(Perspolis/Parseh), and interestingly the lurs betrayed Iran multiple times after that.
So where does Xerox fall into this?😅

Lol that is a picture of Egyptian Thebes not the one in central Greece. 16:18. Nile river with Egyptian pylons
Another one of those great topic selections that I personally appreciate. Couldn't help but notice that you've mentioned Artaxerxes II and III, but who was the OG Artaxerxes though?
Favorite war from Greek, Roman or Persian history? Probably the final, and greatest, one that involved all three: the Byzantine Sasanian War of 602-628. Utterly ruinous – cataclysmic, really – and it probably ended Antiquity for good. Still, what a story.
Thanks for another great video on ancient famous people and like the tongue in cheek humor!!
I would love to see a biographics of the 10,000 Greek mercenaries that found themselves lost in Persia.
