День тому[AUDIO ONLY, VIDEO COMING SOON]
Far in the distance, three colossal shapes tower over the desert horizon…
In this episode, we travel to the Nile Valley, and tell the story of one of the most iconic cultures ever produced by humankind - the civilizations of ancient Egypt. I want to show how this series of related cultures grew up in the floodplains of their great river, and built some of the most enduring and recognizable structures in the world. And I want to tell the story of what happened to bring the age of the Pharaohs finally and cataclysmically to an end.

I completely agree with this OP. The podcasts and videos of Fall Of Civilizations are without a doubt the highest quality of all that exist. I'm proud that I was 1 of the first to say this, and I'm very glad so many others have joined me. It would grieve me greatly if Paul wasn't getting the credit he is due, so I'm SO very glad that he is being credited as the Master that he is! I can't wait for him to finish the video of this one, but that will take a LOT of time. That's ok though, because it takes time to create the masterpeices that are Paul's hallmark. I'll be so excited to see it, when it comes, so the waiting will be hard, but it will be so worth it! Thank you so much Paul, for the wonderful work that you do! I know that it's painstaking, but your fans love you for it! I hope you get joy from knowing how much joy you give us! ❤❤❤

I'm a Historian myself and I absolutely love this channel. As a blind person, I particularly enjoy the little sound effects here and there, thunderstorms, waterfalls, people marching through the desert... it really transports me through time into that world. There's another history-related channel I really enjoy called Geschichtsfenster. That guy focuses on the European Middle Ages, especially the HRE. His episodes are always very specific and go into great detail. For example he can easily spend 2 hours talking about the diet of peasants or women's fashion in late medieval Germany. By contrast, Paul takes the bird's eye approach, covering millennia and thousands of square kilometers in a single episode. Paul's videos are also very refined, using professional voice actors etc., while Andrej from Geschichtsfenster basically just presents sources and lectures without much editing, so it feels like sitting in an university seminar. Both styles have their charme in my opinion and I like to switch back and forth between them because they complement each other so well.

The writing of "Egypt: Fall of the Pharaohs" podcast is completely amazing. It is so clear and compelling that once I started listening I was happily hooked! That meticulous research went into making this presentation is obvious. Ancient hieroglyphics are given new life through dramatic readings, while the narrator provides a concise and interesting discourse on this fascinating period in human history. I have listened to and enjoyed several other "Fall of Civilization" podcasts and they are all wonderful. But there is something special about this one... perhaps it is the glamour of ancient Egypt and its bygone pharaohs. I just know it is an excellent production and source of information. Many thanks to the creator for his hard work, creativity and commitment to historical accuracy.

My 6th grade teacher, Ms. Grant absolutely loved ancient Egypt and passed that love along to me. She is an amazing teacher!

The one podcast I actively listen to instead of sleeping to, these are genuinely a delight to listen to and I go on rants to everyone I talk to for the next week about all the things I learned. Thank you for putting in the work and making this amazing content!

Okay your coverage about cats! "And for the cats? It is perhaps something that they have never quite forgotten" had me giggling!

The history of Pharaonic Egypt was so very long, it has at least a couple of dark ages, but it had a continuity of culture that is still amazing.

I am so thrilled that this appeared today! I was afraid that maybe will the April Fall book release that was it for the series. Thank the gods, the force or the programmer in charge for giving us this to lighten up our dismal world!

I waited almost 4 years from the time I started listening to this podcast to have the Egyptians be featured.

The music that plays at the end of the introduction (7:50) is so fitting to the genre. Every time i hear it is so moving and thought provoking. Every episode 10/10. Thank you.

It has become one of the most moving pieces of music that I hear, stirring excitement for the journey through stunning cultures that the peerless narrative evokes.

BABE WAKE UP NEW FALL OF CIVILIZATIONS EPISODE JUST DROPPED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Being a follower of the podcast Tides of History (SUPER MEGA recommended, the current long series about the "origins of humanity" is unique) I now think that this episode could be half an hour longer. It's surprising, but "Egypt" had a lot of story before the even pre-dynastic period.

Any idea when the video version of this may come out...im one of those that likes the books with big pictures in them. I guess im simple that way. P.S. You do the best work and would make any historian proud. They should make your videos mandatory viewing in history classes from high school through college.
@johnjohn5797 Місяць тому
Agreed 👍 🤝 👍 very well said Johnjohn. Could not have said it better 😊
