Tiberius - The Second Roman Emperor Documentary

Uhh ppl are luvin this but im seeing super huge holes in da story...srry

Kinda sounds like Tiberius was good and bad at the same time. Glad he wasn't my emperor.

Corn comes from America and so we better re write the books if Tiberius was distributing it

Meanwhile Jesus Christ meanwhile Indonesia style..

I think Augustus planted a time bomb under the inheritance system by forcing Tiberius to adopt his nephew and put him in line of succession ahead of his own son. This largely predetermined conflicts in the imperial family, which ended in bloodshed. Ultimately, all the descendants of Germanicus who were in power (Caligula, Agrippina the Younger, Nero) turned out to be degenerates or scoundrels.Tiberius should have been succeeded by Drusus the Younger and his heirs.

A fost un împărat bun pentru Roma Tiberius! L-au ucis curtenii săi după ce i sa făcut rău, astupând fața sa cu perne, și astfel a murit un mare împărat!

As far as my poor brain counts, he died 79, not 77.

Blahblah no stop..just breathe dude

I love these shows, very informative. I like that they ask for your opinion in the comments. Mine is always: "wow... err, I don't know, what you just said!"👍

it certainly explains the succeeding empires machiavellian intrigues

Good genetics, he lived to 81:and his mother to 88, 2000 years ago!! Good ages for back then.

This is my favorite compilation of Tiberius. I feel like he was very misunderstood, and history has painted a much different hyperbolic picture of him. Every Roman ruler needed to have some form of paranoia Someone or senators were always plotting in the background to assassinate them.

How could an Roman Emperor fix the price of 🌽 corn.?

Livia had a bigger role in this power exchange than you are willing to mention.

James Tibeeeerius Kirk!

Hail Tiberius. Truly he was the most second Roman Emperor of all time.

1.Marcus Aurelius 2.Tiberius.3.Vespasian

Tiberius in his earlier years seemed like a decent man. When he lost his father, his mom (Livia) maries Octavian (Augustus). Drussus dies, divorces Vipsania, and marries superslut Julia. There’s more, his evil mother Livia is manipulating (poisoning) his way for the emperorship. Who would want to be around that drama in Rome? He enjoyed his life on the battlefield. He got tired of Julia’s nonsense, and went to Rhodes. He was forced to come back because Augustus ran out of heirs. Augustus passes in AD 14, Tiberius is 51. He’s tired of it all, he has to rule. Then Germanicus comes along, he’s gaining popularity. Tiberius feels threatened. Livia delivers her final coup de grace, by having Germanicus, scared (superstition ) and poisoned to death through Piso strings. Then Livia dies. Tiberius is very unpopular in Rome. He meets Sejanus, who handles his work. Tiberius decides to go to Capri. Tiberius discovers that Sejanus is trying to eliminate him. He has him killed. Then he selects Caligula as his heir. Tiberius was so mad that he wanted someone worse than him to be emperor. Who in their right mind would be a decent person, if Tiberius had to go through all that hell. It was a cutthroat existence. Politically, Tiberius did take care of the Empire. The treasury was full. The empire was maintained. There were no high risk expansions. He was a lost soul, but the empire was still strong.

dislike for showing random old video footage trying to pass it as roman video footage... like they had cameras back then...

Augustus is to reflect Octavian’s hope that his rule would “augur” well for Rome.

Very good video, i think! And a speaker with a very pleasant voice.

Beastly nature. Later, Nero, total beast.

42.01. CORN didn't exist at all in Europe, the Romans never knew corn!

Wow, that book by Robert Graves and BBC series I, Claudius was based on much less fiction than I knew.

Roman politics.
The original definition of, Convolute.

You have no idea who is who, amoung inbreads.

There is a small mistake in this video: it mentions Romans had access to corn. Corn is a New World crop and only came to Europe upon the discovery of the Americas.

The mistake is understandable in that in old translations, the word "corn" will be used to mean grain, because English is funny like that and corn as we know it today was called maize.

There is too much ambiguity about the emperors Tiberius, Caligula, and Nero because many of the Roman historians after them were without doubt guilty of sensationalism, finding reasons of their own to blacken the reputations of emperors who were otherwise probably some of the best that Rome had. It is just as likely that conspiracies abounded throughout the Roman Empire with army generals and senators seeking their own fortunes and quests for power and the preservation of their own pride. Historians with personal ambitions and malignity on their minds are not to be trusted. Some things about Tiberius and subsequent emperors may be true or not, but with the politics of the day, it is impossible to assess and form any undeniably accurate conclusions. The politics of Ancient Rome have repeatedly played out in every civilization since, and there is no perceivable end to the cattle excreting upon the truth.

History ❤❤

Curious that the city in Israel named after him was not mentioned in the video. Did it have any impact on him?

:)

Maybe I’m mistaken, but wasn’t Tiberius the 3rd Roman Emperor? Julius Cesar, Augustus, then Tiberius…..

Turcja powstala kilkanascie wiekow pozniej niz zyl i dzialal Marcus Agrippa.

I consider him to have been the best of a bad lot. He had a very tough job - while the conditions withing the empire changed the laws and politics did not. Augustus achieved nothing of any great value and so Tiberius inherited a position empty of value in the eyes of practically everyone.

The horrors this man committed against my people I pray he rotting in hell

Respect 🫡

Fascinating documentary. It is very hard, specially for a non historian, to assess such a complex figure. You have succedeed in shading it in accordance with the sources. And, as always, the visual framework has been beautiful while the narration stupendous. Thanks.

Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely

Why would he have his wife ( Julia; Octavian daughter) imprisoned in a cell so that she refused food and died I cannot figure it out; he could have left her live in exile on the island… she did hate him and could have been a peril for him but not so much insofar as she still remained a prisoner condamned by her father Augusto for drunkness and debauchery
Everyone seems to think that the Romans were free and ruthless: the Romans had in high esteem virginity and conjugal loyalty and a clean living
Excesses might ha been greatly exaggerated: a soldier; a philosopher; a writer; a pious perso; a politician a worker; a builder; were not into superficial entertainments! Definitely not more than they were in other historical epochs

:40 they have the video like it's official video from the 2 nd leader of romes time hahahahahahahahaha

Who wrote this text? It is somewhat hard to follow.

Can anyone suggest a good historical book about ancient Rome?

Corn is native in Mexico. How did in end up in Rome B.C.?

I may be late to the festivities, but 🌽 CORN in 22 AD coughs
