The Eight Ages of Greece - A Complete History
Video Overview & Insights
The Complete History of Greece | Ancient Greece Documentary
What a fate of genocide and conversion for Greece and Romans! - Greek gods; Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Hades, Ares, Athena, Aphrodite, Hermes, Artemis & Apollo all 10 of them who represented Greece and worshipped for more than 2500 years before 3000BC so easily made to have destroyed by Christianity. Greece rulers wanted to convert Persia to Greece religion only to find themselves got converted to Christianity spread by Jesus the Jew while Persia's Zoroastrian got converted to Islam!🤣🤣
This documentary explores the full history of Greece, from the Bronze Age civilizations of the Minoans and Mycenaeans to modern Greece today. Over thousands of years, Greek civilization shaped philosophy, democracy, art, science and culture across Europe and the wider world.
In this full history documentary we explore the eight major historical periods of Greece: the Bronze Age, Archaic Greece, Classical Greece, the Hellenistic Age, Roman Greece, Byzantine Greece, Ottoman Greece and the modern Greek state.
Great information!
Ancient Greece produced some of the most influential ideas and achievements in human history. The philosophers Socrates, Plato and Aristotle laid the foundations of Western philosophy. Greek city-states like Athens and Sparta shaped political thought, while the Parthenon and the Acropolis became symbols of classical architecture and artistic perfection.
The conquests of Alexander the Great spread Greek culture across the Mediterranean and the Middle East, creating the Hellenistic world. Later, Greece became part of the Roman Empire, and eventually the Byzantine Empire centred on Constantinople. After centuries of Ottoman rule, the modern Greek state emerged in the 19th century and continued to evolve through wars, political upheaval and integration into the European Union.

0:00 Introduction
HELLENES !
What is the main haplogroup of the Hellenic People ?
The Greek population does not have a single "main" Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup, but rather a diverse and stable mix of several major lineages. The most prevalent haplogroups among Hellenics are E1b1b (specifically the E-V13 sub-clade) THIS IS NORTH AFRICAN HAPLOGROUP and J2 (especially J2a). THIS IS A SEMITIC HAPLOGROUP THE BIBLE SAYS THAT SO MANY ISRAELITES JEWS WILLINGLY HELLENIZED These paternal lines—along with significant frequencies of R1b and R1a—reflect the deep, complex, and ancient history of the Mediterranean and Balkan regions.
1. Haplogroup E-M78 (E1b1b)Prevalence: Highly common in the Balkans, typically peaking at around 20% to 30% MAIN HAPLOGROUP IN ALBANIA and in Greece.
History: The specific E-V13 sub-clade is deeply tied to the ancient Paleobalkanic populations and greatly expanded during the Bronze Age.
2. Haplogroup J-M172 (J2)Prevalence: Also found in roughly 20% to 30% of the Greek population, with specific localized islands or regions (like Crete and the Mani Peninsula) seeing much higher concentrations.
History: Strongly associated with Anatolian, Caucasus, and Near Eastern populations, J2 lineages trace back to the early Neolithic farmers who brought agriculture to Europe from the Fertile Crescent.
3. Haplogroups R1b and R1a Prevalence: Together these make up about 20% to 25% of the Greek Y-DNA pool.History: These are Indo-European lineages. R1b is a common Western European marker often linked to the Yamnaya culture, while R1a subclades expanded across Eurasia.
4. Haplogroup I (Mainly I2)Prevalence: Typically hovers around 10% in Greece, though variations exist depending on the region.
History: This lineage represents the native hunter-gatherer populations that predated farming in Europe.
SO GREEKS ARE NOT PURE BLOOD NATION THEY ARE ALSO VERY MIXED !

Huge respect for the Greek people, their history and heritage.
Silly note: i am very pleased that among very few other languages we in Norwegian call Greece by their proper name - Hellas.
14:59 Classical Greece
23:04 Hellenistic Greece

GREECE IS GOT TWO AGES CITY STATES AND FROM 1832 BY NAME GREECE ARTIFICIAL COUNTRY.
44:21 Ottoman Greece
49:06 Greece in the Modern Age
There actually was a famous Swedish scholar named Olaus Rudbeck who genuinely believed Sweden was Atlantis. In his book Atlantica (1600s), he claimed the ancient Greeks came from Scandinavia and that Swedish civilisation was basically the origin of world civilisation.
He even tried linking Norse mythology with Greek mythology to “prove” it. Historians today consider it pseudohistory, but it’s a real part of Swedish intellectual history.

Great consolidation of centuries into a single documentary. One small point of contention, the European powers and the battle of Navarino, only happened after the Greeks were fighting for years and had almost clinched the victory. Only then did the political powers decide to support the cause. Prior to that they watched from a distance with private notables supporting it, not the states. Also, In 1922 when Atarurk came to power, he was backed by Russia and managed to fight back the Greeks, the great power strategy of keeping the neighbors weak and at each other’s throats. In addition, throughout the 400 year occupation, over 120 uprisings had started, Greeks never accepted the rule but were not in the position to fully restore the country from the occupiers. The elite were fed well, so they made sure the subjects kept subjugated.

pretty cool video of my country, thanks man!
@rafazisiGreece ❤
@LegendsUncovered-i7qFantastic video
@Steve-tn5crSo who were the ancient Greeks? Most likely south-eastern Europeans with admixture of Celtic blood also known as Dorians or Keltoi who invaded Greece from the north around 1200 BC.
@Crimson_City14:07 Were the Lydians Greek?
@mertttttt8903This "historian" doesn't even know that Paul wan NOT one of the apostles of Jesus? Paul himself explicitly said he never even met the physical Jesus. I can't trust anything this person says.
@ScottLuvsRenFairesI need to go in Greece again, now that I know more about its magnificent history.

@luisagooli-o5xWas in Madrid when Franco was still alive. Basque separatists blew up a general, Carrero Blanco, and overnite the Guardia went from: Hello US visitor to "Papers please." Generals still in power in Athens, so I'd had enough brushes with "the power". Sorry to pass on hoped for Greece visit. But hey, I can get all the military-type "papers please" right here in the USofA. Just ask ICE.

@HairGlitterGreeks today: lazy, cheating, dirty. No resemblance to the past.
@sguny5Greeks copied everything from Egypt,so I heard.
@kimTAN-k8j“Millennia’s ago, when the sounds of the sea and the wind passed through the stone citadels, the Greeks were weaving the world with reason and imagination. They were the only ones who built temples toward the heavens and the stars, who wrote poetry so alive that even time shivers when it is read.
Before their first philosophical step, the world was dark and raw; along them, thought became light, justice law, and beauty a way of life. They created Gods who spoke to the heart of man, and heroes who fought for glory and immortality, and every sword, every wave that struck their harbors, every wine that flowed from their vineyards, told a story still sought by the soul.
And if you stand among the ruins of acropolises or ancient theaters, you will feel the wind whisper: here thought was born, here the spirit never dies, here Greece shivers the world with its eternal magic.”
Ancient Greek were black.
@SoukhratiMarouaneGreece were I find myself at ease
