The Day The Most Important Rule In The World Was Written

Vusi Thembekwayo tells Magna Carta.

The Magna Carta is one of the most important legal documents in history, and its impact is still felt today. Signed by King John of England in 1215, the Magna Carta was a groundbreaking document that established the principle of the rule of law, limited the power of the monarchy, and guaranteed basic rights to the people.

At a time when monarchs had almost unlimited power, the Magna Carta represented a significant shift towards democracy and individual rights. It established the principle that no one, not even the king, is above the law, and that everyone is entitled to certain basic rights and freedoms.

While the Magna Carta was far from perfect - it only applied to a small segment of society, and was not always enforced - it paved the way for future advances in democracy and human rights. Its principles are enshrined in many modern legal documents, including the US Constitution and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

I like how he says african and leaves out the part that Severus was a Roman born in libya who's parents where italians that settled in tunisia and Libya he was also an emperor of Rome.

Someone has been learning History from the BBC and Netflix.

[marabarnet]

It only proofs how easily history can be altered by leaving out certain details. He articulates everything with such conviction that makes easily believable.

[ZausBauz]

Amazing how he changes history to suit himself.

Confusing the Peasant Revolt of 1381 with the Magna Carta of 1215, while also completely misrepresenting the reasons for the revolt.

[petemccarry]

It wasn’t the peasants who forced King John to sign the Magna Carta. It was the barons.

Not gonna lie this guy has a very convincing voice then I read the comments and realise other people are more detail oriented

[cuteanimalworld-bm]

This is why context is important. Without full context we are literally rewriting history.

An African also was the first man to launch a Tesla roadster into space.

The Magna Carta, signed in 1215 by King John of England, is a famous historical document that established the principle that everyone, including the king, was subject to the law. However, it did not state that "all men are created equal." This phrase is famously associated with the United States Declaration of Independence, written in 1776.

I love how he emphasised LAND LORD like that was supposed to blow our mind

[IsraelControlsOurSocialMed-px]

Thank you for re-writing other people's history for us, dude.

[endofunk]

Due to Severus being born in North Africa, recent years have occasionally seen him mischaracterised as racially African, despite the Carthaginian and Italian antecedents of his parents.

[MiscLondonGuy]

The events he’s describing are the peasants revolt which was 1381 but the rights he’s talking about are in the Magna Carter which was signed in 1215.

[freespeechimpaired]

This sounds like a Netflix reimagining of European history.

[annkelly]

A lot of passion & conviction in his voice, which would fool many people who only give a glancing look at history. Unfortunately, he leaves out details about Lucius Septimius Severus that would lead one to believe that there was a Roman Emperor of African blood.

[nhamilton]

Prime example of rewriting history to suit your agenda.

[optimistic]

Netflix should stop messing with history, it's confusing people.

“That’s why my crypto startup…”
Yep, disengaged. 😂

Septimius Severus was of mixed North African and Roman heritage. He was born in Leptis Magna (modern-day Libya) in the Roman province of Africa. His father was of Punic (Carthaginian) descent, linked to the ancient Phoenicians, while his mother had Roman ancestry. This made him ethnically Afro-Roman, reflecting a blend of Mediterranean and North African.
