Blinking here is like missing an entire week of class

“Hitler has joined the serve” Moments after “Hitler was banned from the server for speed hacking”

A detailed narration for the Roman period, aligned with musical cues: 1:16 beginning of Punic war 1:25 escalation of conflict between Carthage and Rome 1:30 Hannibal's elephants march through Iberia to Rome 1:43 collapsing Carthaginian Empire 1:52 Rome begins to become the European superpower as they expand and civilise barbarian lands 2:01 Collapse of Macedonia to Roman forces Continued expansion of Rome 2:32 Rome is now the undisputed power in Europe 2:37 Beginning of eastern conflict that prompts Roman expansion into the east 2:51 Beginning of Caesar's conquest of Gaul 3:02 brewing tensions between Antony and Octavian and Pompey 3:06 Octavian comes out victorious after Battle of Actium, resulting in death of Antony. Octavian now rules supreme as dictator of Rome at age 30. 3:18 New world order 3:27 Empire's first emperor Augustus dies, but Tiberius is strong enough to maintain stability within empire. Rome remains prosperous 3:39 Claudius begins conquest of Britain 3:46 Empire stumbles in his steady footing for the first time, as Nero comes to power, infamous for his cruelty, extravagance, and debauchery. 3:53 Vespasian regains order after marching on Rome, establishing a new dynasty 3:57 After a short reign by Titus, Domitian, whilst capable as manager of state, is excessively cruel and paranoid, with the Empire again stumbling ever so slightly from within 4:04 Trajan's conquests, the second of the five good emperors 4:10 Music is similar to Augustan reign, marking a new period of flourishing and dominance for the Empire 4:41 death of Aurelius marks the end of the five good emperors, with Commodus, an incapable leader, in control of the mighty Empire 4:56 period of instability, especially with the sadistic and psychopathic personality of Elagabalus, followed by a string of very young emperors, who had little more than nominal power 5:14 first major cracks form in the Roman empire, with Postumus breaking away the western provinces of Gaul, Britain and Iberia, along with escalating eastern conflicts 5:19 Aurelian comes to the rescue, securing both the eastern and western fronts 5:29 The tetrarchy, saving the economy of the Roman empire. Some period of stability. 5:45 The new Rome, a Christian one, united under Constantine the Great. For a while, Rome seems to be stable again. 6:09 Arrival of the Huns, increasing border escalations between Rome and barbarian tribes 6:24 Collapse of the Western Roman empire, after the sack of Rome by Alaric and Hunnic invasions. 6:26 Iberian and Gallic and British states begin breaking away 6:33 North Africa falls to the Vandals, and so does eastern Illyria 6:38 Western Rome's fall now seems inevitable 6:43 increased raids from the Huns and barbarians decrease Rome's control over their western provinces, increasing the rate of its collapse 6:48 Majorian is able to delay the fall, by reconquering Gaul and Iberia, hence the extended repetition of chordal progression 6:51 At last the fall of Western Rome is inevitable, with no legitimate line of emperor left, with a succession of adolescent emperors who had nominal control over the Empire 6:56 Sack of Rome, and destruction of Western Rome 7:03 Theoderic the Great begins reconquest of Italia and Iberia, as patrician of Eastern Rome 7:05 Rome is conquered again, but now no longer under a Roman identity ... 7:12 Expansion of Frankish kingdoms 7:20 Increasing tensions between Visigothic kingdom and Eastern Roman Empire, after death of Theoderic the Great 7:24 Justinian begins his conquest of Italia and former Roman provinces in Africa and Iberia, but only partially successful, as his troops get tied up in the border conflicts with the Sassanian Empire. The music is grandiose, but with a tinge of sadness, for as Belisarius, general of Justinian, enters Rome, only a fifth of its population remains. Western Rome will never again be a superpower, and the Eastern Roman Empire will inevitably relinquish Italia, as the now civilised barbarians of the Franks and Goths will prove too powerful to withstand against. The glory of a reunified Rome remains for just a fleeting moment, but was never to materialise. Never before, never again, would one entity come to dominate Europe so completely and authoritatively, not even the third Reich 8:29 the Rise of the Caliphates, dominating over Byzantium. In time, Roman identity shall be wiped out forever.

Probably one of the best videos I´ve ever seen on UKposts! Can´t imagine how much effort was put into this masterpiece

Hitler enetered the lobby Hitler: how to take a screenshot Stalin: alt f4 Hitler left the lobby

Teacher: Name 5 french emperors/kings Me: Louis I. Louis II. Louis III. Louis IV. Louis V.

"How much of the Mediterranean sea do you want?" The Roman Empire: YES.

Nice music Choice!! It’s Deep enough how intense European History is

Que video mas Épico muy bueno, fue genial ir viendo como crecían y caían los imperios, e ir jugando con las fechas, gracias por la labor en hacer este contenido de calidad!!!

I can’t believe I spent 20 min watching a map

Incredible how long the Roman Empire lasted

An incredible piece of work - well done!

Loving the battle graphics, great work guys ❣❣💕💕

How to became a French ruler Step 1: Louis

The Romans looked like a random name generator for a while

The work on this is greatly appreciated.

Thank you, such a great video! Watched it already 10 times 😘

Ancient kingdoms: *stable kings for a couple of years/decades* Roman Republic: *Activating turbo mode*

Everyone : **Changing rulers** Louis XIV, Victoria and Elizabeth II : We don't do that here

A detailed narration of the Kingdom of England, and later Britain: 6:26 The Romans abandon Britain 6:45 Anglo Saxon raiders begin to conquer the east coast of England 7:18 the Kingdom of Wessex is established under Cerdic the Great 7:38 the Anglo Saxons become the dominant faction in Britain 7:55 St Augustine brings Christianity to England 9:24 Offa establishes Mercian dominance among the Anglo Saxons 9:47 Egbert Unites all of England under Wessex for the first time 10:05 the Great Heathen Army invades Northumbria and begins to take over England 10:11 Alfred the Great fends off the Vikings and divides the country in two, Wessex getting the bottom half, Denmark getting the top, the Danish territory known as “The Danelaw” 10:30 Edward the Elder begins to conquer the Danelaw for Wessex 10:34 Athelstan unites all of England, becoming the first true king of England and the last king of Wessex 10:58 Edward the Martyr is assassinated at age 15, beginning the turbulent reign of Ethelred the Unready 11:16 Sweyn Forkbeard of Denmark conquers England briefly 11:17 Canute the Great conquers England, and unites England, Denmark, and Norway under the North Sea Empire 11:29 The Anglo Saxons are returned to power under Edward the Confessor 11:41 Edward the Confessor dies and is succeeded unjustly by Harold Godwinson, leading to Duke William of Normandy, to invade and conquer England, ending the Anglo Saxon reign over Britain permanently. I didn’t realise how long this would take so I’m gonna finish this off another time, for now it’s just the Anglo Saxon history.

Impressive, it's an amazing amount of information compressed into just a few minutes

This guy literally put down every Roman Consol. That’s just amazing

How many Louis can we get France: yes

I learned so much about the Visigoth Kingdom from this video. Thanks!

Great job, very interesting and insightfull!

Kingdoms: have the same King for decades Roman Republic: *how about if we change our consuls literally eVERY YEAR*

Most paused video on internet. And it's not porn.

Absolutely brilliant. Thank you.

Good video. Lots of effort. We'll done and I enjoyed the show.

Nobody: Rome: imma gonna conquer this continent just for self-defense

That moment when almost the entire Europe turns grey with the name "Hitler" for a second and then dissapears.

Wow I really wish my history class would have been taught like this from the beginning. "Ok kids lets start from the very beginning and work our way up." Being a visual learner I would have more of a connection with the place and ruler and other nations around interacting and warring. The Henrys and the Charles and even some of the early Roman Emperor's repetitive names would have made more sense to me. Thank you and even now its really cool to see alot of names Id never seen in alot of major countries.

I'm a big fan of the Dark Knight. This guy's choices of the bgm are epic.

*1910s comes around* "This is where the fun begins"

I can't even begin to imagine the amount of work that went into this. Total respect.

Can't see a legend. Is there one? It would come on useful. Thanks for the work already.

東ローマ帝国で色が変えられているのが少し残念ではありますがまさかの一年おきに精緻に再現されていて素晴らしい動画ですね！

When you realise that Elizabeth II became Queen when Stalin died, and she is still queen

The Roman Empire is like a random name generator wtf.

An incredible piece of work

Impressive for the fine detail, as well as including the correct accents to names. You have done your homework and research very well. Many thanks.

Creating a new account to get month of free Netflix be like: Constantin I Constantin II Constantin III Constantin IV...

17:33 - Napoleon joined the game 17:40 - Napoleon dissconected VAC banned from secure servers

Wonderfull job! I actually wonder what kind of data does exist in the background.

Vielen Dank, das war sicher ganz viel Arbeit!

europe: ancient italians: hippity hoppity this is now my property

When you see a little red dot show up in Italy *Oh no.*

Hey man, can you make a more accurate version of this? Like Google maps accurate? Because when I try to make an ideal europe it pretty much flops with sea and border alignment. Thanks! •u•

The same nice as previous video good job 👌👍

You know, northern Europe is also part of Europe.

Here's a project that'll keep you busy forever; pause on a random year and read up on every ruler.

Amazing. Well done!

I think you could have put the Dacians as a kingdom. They were near Rome as a (most of the time) unified people for around 200 years (unlike the Gauls, for example). Great vid, by the way!

17:40 Russia: "Whoa Poland, is that Napeolen in you or are you just happy to see me?!"

17:33: Napoleon has joined the server 17:41: Napoleon has been banned for using killaura

Fantastic video!

Watched this in 0.25x speed. Lasted more than an hour, with side googling maps and Wikipedia. I regret nothing. Thank you so much for this!

Since 1952: Rest of Europe: lots of changes The UK: Elizabeth II

*me blinks* History teacher: you literally missed 1 year of history class

Impressive work.

Great job! I have only one minor issue, although I know, it's hard to keep track of every European country with all their different historic titles and customs, so please take it as a constructive remark: In Hungary after WWII there are a several less familiar names. I guess they were technically the head of state, but in Hungary they are not considered the rulers of the country. Especially during communist times (1949-89) the real ruler was the General Secretary of the Hungarian Working People's Party. That means Mátyás Rákosi from 1949 to 1956, Ernő Gerő in 1956 (with Imre Nagy taking over during the revolution in October), János Kádár from 1956 to 1988 and Károly Grósz from 1988 to 1989. We hadn't even learned in history class about who was technically head of state or prime minister at that time (unless they were also the general secretary), since they were just figureheads, the real power was the General Secretary, just like Khrushchev, Brezhnev and Gorbachev in the USSR (this is a communist thing, I think it came from the way Stalin rose to power, since that was his official title). Since the fall of communism the head of state is the President of Hungary, but the real ruler is considered to be the Prime Minister. You probably heard of our current one: Viktor Orbán. He is not head of state (right now the President of Hungary is Katalin Novák), but he has basically the most power. Although since the video shows the monarchs too, who are mostly in a similar position, as our presidents, it's not inaccurate.

The fact that 1444 is at 14:43 just really hurts my soul. One second away.

Borders of europe * change every year * Border of Spain and Portugal: we don't do that here

AMAZING VIDEO!🤩

Worth adding that Jogaila of Lithuania (14:16) and Wladyslaw II (Jagiello) in Poland (14:20) were the same person. He, as the ruler of Lithuania, married the Polish king (yes), a 14-year old girl named Jadwiga and started a new dynasty - the Jagiellons. And Vytautas was his brother.

imagine how many people dies every time the color change

Let's just appreciate Elizabeth II...she joined the game and never left.

This is very well done. Wow

Literally my favorite video on youtube

17:41 Napoleon is like: "GUESS WHO'S BA-"

17:39 me when i wake up

Aaaamezinng!!! Please, could you share the jpg? It would be wondeful for studing :D

You just earned a subscriber, Cottereau

When you accidentally blink and miss the entire WW2

I love how it doesn't even show Peter III for Russia, since he only lasted 6 months.

Incredible work. I just need another version with the names of the nations. My geography isn't that great and I only learned what the Kingdom of Prussia was the other day 😅 Edit: literally the next video suggested to me was what I wanted, great job 👏

The sync of the music when napoleon starts to rule is just so good

Elizabeth II: Sorry, but I won’t leave this map. Never.

Everyone: *changes leaders* Great Britain: *George XCVIII*

>Alexander begins to invade >music swells with action Fuck that was epic

vraiment,j'sais pas comment ta fait mais la music elle est ouf.

17:38 when Europe had a short errection

England vs France: Round 1 fight! England vs France: Round 91384728173e8173 fight!

Je suis un japonais qui aime l'histoire occidentale. Je pense que l'Europe est une région miracle avec une très longue et magnifique histoire. Le centre de l'histoire mondiale est l'histoire européenne. Bonne chance à l'Europe !

There are bloggers every year, and the bloggers are really awesome.

I love how the music changes dramatically to signify different major events. Such as 1799, when Napoleon came into power. Or 1933, when Hitler came into power.

“Wow what a great video, time to read some comments” *Instant Regret*

That was awesome!!

0:41 - Alexander joined the server 0:47 - Alexander has been banned from the server reason 'Overpowered'

1939 : Hitler and his friends had joined the game 1945 : Hitler and his friends had been banned for hack

The dark knight in the background was lit🔥

17:39 Soldier: we lost to the russian winter and now they're advancing to us, what are we gonna do? Napoleon: there's nothing we can do.

Pls do the same video for Antarctica
