    Can we all just take a moment to appreciate that we can watch this for free

    This dude puts out better documentaries than actual history tv channels. This dude puts out better documentaries than actual history tv channels.

    "Captive Greece held captive her uncouth conqueror and brought the arts to the rustic Latin lands"
    Quintus Horatius Flaccus (Horace)

    So, Rome conquered Greece but Greece conquered Rome.
  • One does not simply watch these videos without getting the urge to play Rome Total War.
  • This video highlights a truly important era in Rome's history. By conquering Greece and the modern-day Balkans, Rome removed Antigonid Macedonia as a viable threat to the Republic and opened the door to conquests in Asia. This era deserves more attention, and thank you for bringing this topic to such a wide audience!
  • The battlefield animations showing the formations and different units like at 27:13 really make the battles so much more informative and entertaining to watch.
  • @byzantinetales
    Even the Romans themselves would be interested in watching a 2 hour documentary of how they conquered Greece
  • "This did not please the Romans" A phrase that so many civs learned the hard way had horrible consequences
  • This isnt what history channel should play- this is worthy of its own kings and generals channel on all platforms.
    Great content. I'm enjoying learning about topics that I have been pondering for quite some time now.
    You have a viewer for life sir

    I am impressed by Rome's diplomatic and aggressive strategies for dealing with the Macedonian Kingdom. It enabled them to achieve their regional political and economic interests. Moreover, how they navigated and negotiated with other nations was genuinely remarkable. It is no wonder that Rome became such a dominant force in the ancient world.

    Rome: Sending in armies to conquer Greece.
    Rome: “You’ve been a bad friend.”

    Rome: "We are here to rescue you. Please do not resist."
  • Congratulations for 10M views, this hard work deserves 100+M views!

    "Pyrrhus of Epirus, who died in Argos". I felt that. Such an ignoble end.
  • @inferno0020
    The Roman conquest of Greece is one of the most underrated critical historical events.
  • Even the Roman divide and conquer diplomacy had nothing on the true master: a single mule who gained his independence by tricking two huge armies into fighting each other.
  • The amount of conflict in these city states was truly horrible.
    One cannot imagine the fear factor the civilian population lived in at this time in history.
