If you enjoyed this video, you may enjoy this longer version of it I just made-with more detail of events

[supersaiyankeyblademaster]

Assassin's Creed Odyssey brought me here.

So Sparta can make warriors, but they have to be born as Spartans and the training takes a childhood length to make them. I guess that’s part of why they never became an empire.

[jesuschrist]

Who's here not because of AC Odyssey, but because they like Greek mythology and history and love learning about stuff like this.





I am, but I have played Odyssey so... it's 50/50

After playing a bit of Odyssey, I realized the peloponnesian war was the original red vs blue

"MALAKA"

So that's why Athens got sick in Assassin's Creed Odyssey...

I am a greek, seeing this video and the great illustration makes me realise how the greek civilization was always based around the sea. We are definitelly a maritime nation. I mean I knew already but this more than emphasizes it. It also emphasizes how we love to hate each other we greeks. Kudos to all of you people creators and audience for being into this kind of shit, I for one know that history excited the hell out of me, not only greek history but the history of mankind.

I'm a Persian interested in history of ancient times of both my country & Greece really enjoyed of this video description. Love the Greece history & mythology🇬🇷🇮🇷

[tripleastacz]

Don't mind me just preparing for AC Odyssey.

[judithvillalobos]

I showed this to my students in my class and they loved it

[FromNothing]

Nice job, as usual very detailed and straight forward. Interesting to see how Greek rivalry among states is ultimately why they never maintained a large empire for long despite having the military and technology to do so. Also on a different note we uploaded war videos within 24 hours of each other :p

This 6 minute video helped me write my essay more than 4 hours of reading various books and articles! Thanks a bunch!

[jeanrafael]

I have a feeling this video is because of the upcoming Assassins Creed Odyssey

[notsoprogaming]

300 spartans
and a few thousand other greeks

[MaxHohenstaufen]

Good video man. Simple, straightforward, not very long, but very well explained.

[Vazel]

I'm very amased of how many foreigners I find, who are interested in greek history, calture, mythology etc.

Great quality content video man. How do you not have more subscribers blows my mind. Your videos are very well made and you’re easily one of the top history channels in my opinion. Keep at it and good luck with the future. Hopefully one day this can be a full time job for you. You deserve it
