In which John Green explores exactly when Rome went from being the Roman Republic to the Roman Empire. Here’s a hint: it had something to do with Julius Caesar, but maybe less than you think. Find out how Caesar came to rule the empire, what led to him getting stabbed 23 times on the floor of the senate, and what happened in the scramble for power after his assassination. John covers Rome’s transition from city-state to dominant force in the Mediterranean in less than 12 minutes. Well, Rome’s expansion took hundreds of years, he just explains it in under 12 minutes. The senate, the people, Rome, the caesarian section, the Julian calendar, and our old friend Pompey all make appearances, but NOT the Caesar Salad, as Julius had nothing to do with it.

Watching this video for school 😭
How bizarre to hear the CEO of Netflix crashed the company 10 years ago, seeing comments 4 years ago singing of Netflix success and being in 2022 with the company in dire times. Maybe in 4 years this comment will be equally as dated.
When you suddenly see a map in Ukrainian (10:04) ❤
I feel like this video thinks it's way better than it actually is.
That Netflix joke did not age well.
What have the Roman's ever done for us? Judean People's Front.
"Netflix was destroyed in 2 weeks"….. immediately checks year of video
20 seconds in and that SPQR joke is really cringey.
Can people just make a normal video without trying to be funny?
Can someone help a homie out n write a summary of this
in this video you didn't speak of 'mongols we are the exception'…

7:42 JC wasn't stabbed in the senate building, he was killed in the theatre of pompey.
In today's world which country has most similarities with the historical roman empire ?

I think it is amazing that a educational channel has enough subscribers to get a diamond play button. If you have one please say.

I have a question. WHAAAAAAAT
11:16: What's that sound? The Imperial March (Darth Vader's Theme).
Fortuna rota volvitur,
Descendo minoratus,
Alter in altus tollitur,
Nimis exaltatus.
Rex sedet in vertice,
Caveat ruinam
Nam sub axem legimus:
Hecubam reginam.
My God! This historian should be hidden in a bunker far from humanity for badmouthing Netflix.
