Heroic Legend of Arslan lore be like:
After discussing the eastern gate, Michael briefly mentions a second Byzantine embassy that took place in 576, during the time of Tiberius Caesar, later emperor Tiberius II Constantine (578-82). He recounts how the king of the Turks asked the 'Roman' ambassadors if they were under the jurisdiction of the Persians:
And they replied that they were not, but that at many times the Persians were subject to the Romans, so that even Trajan, king of the Romans (CE 98-117), set up an image [of himself] in the land of the Persians and they (i.e. the Romans) made them worship his image. And when he heard these things, the king of the Turks drove out the Persians from Margiana, because they (i.e. the Persians) were covering up these things.
Partnains werent Persian tho right? They were the iranic people of the north east of Iran.
The Gokturk and Byzantine alliance was the most depressing period of the Sassanids. Hormuz, who was on the throne during this period, had thirteen thousand people killed by the Sassanid notables who opposed him. These were the Sassanid nobility, usually composed of clergy and commanders. There were even aspahbands among them. All this caused the Sassanid army to weaken. Taking this as an opportunity, Tardu's younger son Yang-Su attacked towards the Sassanid eastern border in 589. The Sassanid army of seventy thousand men, tasked with guarding the eastern border, was scattered. After this defeat, the Sassanids began to retreat. Horasan, Taligan, Belh, Herat and Badgis were attacked by Göktürks.
The Eagle and the Lion by Adrian Goldsworthy covers this exact topic but NGL this 9 minute video does a damn good job of covering the same topic
Suggestion: A video about Ya'qub ibn al-Layth al-Saffar.
Impressive, very nice. Let's see Reconquista video
6:35 This did not backfire in any way in 800 years
Arab conquests weren't impressive
The fact that he just had to pan downwards to mention long term consequences is poignant
Sorry dude this is too long for my brain please put subway surfers next to the video so i can properly watch this with enough dopamine.
9:00 They could have a dance off like in Meet The Spartans instead
Living in Nisibis must have been very pleasant
Dang, Romans entangled in a centuries long war with Persians while Alexander the GOAT steamrolled them in record speed, such brilliant tactician.
The Greco-Iranian, hmm let's call it, competitive bromance is probably the most iconic relationship in all of civilization's history 😍👨❤️👨
Had it's ups and downs of course, but a twelve century intimacy is an amount of time unimaginable by many cultures.
Though it's disappointing that all those pesky Arabic, Turkic and European jealous mofos got in the way, I hope one day we can get back to appreciating each other's existence, culture and legacy, as it was customary for all these years. (you know, whole city eradicated, one million tagmata/aswaran dead, general assassinating the shah cause he's got a crush on the basileus, involving Armenia for old time's sake, etc)
i think this might be the 1st time you used farya's work, as far as i know. truly great choice
Rashidun Caliphate: I took it personally
Rome and Persia 🇮🇹🇬🇷 🤝 🇮🇷
TWO GREATEST EYES IN ANCIENT WORLD
ARM REVEAL
6:36
626:🇬🇷🤝🇹🇷
2024:🇬🇷🔫🇹🇷
Now calculate military casulties across 600 years.
Boy kissing, a freak off, hell nah
The count at the end is wrong, about half of the "stalemates" ended in Rome paying tribute to Iran, idk why wikipedia says status quo when paying tribute sounds like an iranian win (lazic war and eternal peace spring to mind as examples)
Persia is still here .where is Rome??
I often forget that these wars lasted for over 600 YEARS.Like it almost sound fantasy.
Romans and Iranians when they see Nisibis, Antioch and Armenia: 👀💧
Take a shot for every "Status quo pro ante bellum."
Sadly got third partied
Fighting multiple bloody wars of attrition as a new expansionist religion is blossoming to the south. What could possibly go wrong?
Quid pro quo
Do Ottoman-Persian War next. Starting with the Qaraqoyuns and going all the way to Qajars.
ABSOLUTE CINEMA
I can't believe Phil Leotardo rebelled against the Sassanids just because of that pygmy thing down in Rome.
Duuuude you forgot to mention Belisarius whooping Persian ass at the battle of Dara.
Bro forgot to include parthians
This makes so much sense and easier to grasp on how islam could grew so fast on top of these two.
WE DID IT, PATRICK! WE SAVED THE CITY!
The Arab world took a lot of its culture from Persians and the west took it from Rome. So in a way the wars haven't stopped.
Best of frenemies
