History Summarized: Rome After Empire

History Summarized: Rome After Empire

In September I brought you "History Re-Summarized: The Roman Empire" but what happens after the Fall, and what does the Pope have to do with it?

This video is the first, but not the last of my forays into Late Antiquity. I'm hype for more. Mark my words this is not the last you'll hear about Ravenna.

Halloween Special: OSP Presents MACBETH

Come one and all, ye goodly gentle folk
And cast your eye upon a treacherous tale
Of witches, wanting, heavy tyrant's yoke
Cast cruelly on the land of Scotland fair
And in advance of wicked hallow's eve
We conjured up a merry gentle band
Of tall tale-tellers for a day's reprieve
In hopes that they could lend us both a ha...

History Re-Summarized: The Roman Empire

Combining my original videos on "The Roman Empire" "The Crisis of the Third Century" and "The Fall of Rome", i have created a NEW history of the roman empire, better, stronger, more informative, also actually funnier. It's a mastapeeece.

I rewrote almost the entire front third of this script from its original version, and most of the back ...

This was fun to make because I got to watch a lot of actually-really-good Superman media.

This video was planned to release two weeks ago, but factors outside of my complete control meant it was better for my well-being to just push this back.

It's a har...

This was supposed to come out on the 8th but i had basically a week and a half that was totally shot from going to VidCon and then recovering from exerting so much energy at VidCon.

Searching for the last epic of the trojan war in an unlikely source... the late roman empire? Lost ancient knowledge is weird like that sometimes.
