Thank you so much for making this! I'm writing an informative essay for my English class about how words can provoke emotions or reactions and you guys posted this! Thank you! I now have a new example for my essay.

Sic parvis magna for Theodora. She was an insignificant woman (worked at a brothel) derived from a poor family and she became the definition of a powerful infuential empress.

[Confuzledish]

Theodora was the real power behind Justinian. From managing the city during plague, the Justinian Code, etc.

Why you guys don't make any video like this anymore. I like watching you video very interesting with the dialogue such as Alexander speech to his soldier

Empress Theodora was ride or die queen. She wanted all the smoke.

[markuhler]

So Justinian didn't even decimate the rioting population. The old softy.

[Mc-attac]

I think, Theodora means the gift from god

I don't know why we're meant to celebrate him putting down a popular revolt with royal troops. Seems like that is the thing we'd probably frown upon these days

Dunno about “saved”. It was still the Emperor’s decision to make. She didn’t give an order, but an opinion. You’re giving his wife too much credit.
