Let’s just all agree that the fact these videos are free are one of the best things in YouTube

[braydenlovetere]

It’s crazy that 20-30 years ago people had to read massive books or attend special classes with certified history professors in order to learn about topics like this (or really any topic)...and yet we get it for free with such ease...truly amazing

Can we all take a second to recognize how freakin good the art has gotten on this channel over the years? Like this channel is starting to look good enough to be on cable, even though cable would never have it (too few aliens).

Finally a new episode of ancient Mesopotamian history! I’m very happy! ❤️

[HeroHoundoom]

Truly, the Neo-Assyrian empire was one of the most fascinating empires in ancient times and Mesopotamian history, in general, is interesting.

"Have you visited Ashur?"
"You mean
Ashur, Ashur?"
"NO, no, I meant Ashur, Ashur, in Ashur. . ."

Tiglath Pileser has to be the most underrated leader of the ancient world. 🙌🏾

This artwork is stunning, and this channel just keeps getting better and better.

[lerneanlion]

Semiramis sounds like an interesting female leader, especially after being called Empress Wu Zetian of the Neo-Assyrian Empire. So yes, please do a video about her! Also, do a video about Wu Zetian as well!

[lord_quasar]

The most surprising thing is that despite the fact that this was their last empire, there are still assyrians today.

[historyenthusiast]
