How did the Huns, Goths, and Vandals help bring down the Roman Empire - and sack the city of Rome itself, not once but twice?In this second episode of our special series on the Fall of the Western Roman Empire, Tristan Hughes is joined by Professor Peter Heather to explore the dramatic wave of invasions that shook Rome in the late 4th and early 5th centuries. From the arrival of the Huns to the sacks of Rome by the Goths in 410 and the Vandals in 455, we trace how the advance of innumerable barbarian tribes brewed decades of tension, betrayal, and bloodshed which helped bring the empire to its knees.MORE:Fall of the Western Roman Empire:https://open.spotify.com/episode/2fKMe2jrV1oZKzRSws83w4The Goths:https://open.spotify.com/episode/5PbZnN3xtQbLkcn2dPZPy2Presented by Tristan Hughes.

The Non-violence or Ahimsa was first introduced from the Hindu-Religion.Ahimsa or non-violence was created for the Braman (Priest) and Sannyasins (Monks) to live a peaceful life in a remote resort. That makes sense.Afterward, Buddhism, Jainism, and Christians had the fatal idea to integrate Ahimsa for everybody in their Religion… And this was one of the biggest mistakes that Religions have ever done!! If we look at the history of India and Tibet:In the 3rd Century B. C “Ashoka The Great” made Buddhism the state Religion of India. In the sixth century A. C., the Huns invaded India and destroyed Buddhist monasteries. Afterward, the Muslims in the 12th century overtook India… The very downfall for India was Buddhism.What happens to Tibet? The same, conquered and destroyed from China… Do we need more evidence?If somebody or a country stick to Ahimsa, they rather more invite offenders or an invasion… The other Buddhist countries didn't practice Ahimsa and could defend themselves.Even so, the Buddhists are not vegetarian, and that is a contradiction to Ahimsa. The Christian countries made and make wars after wars and killed so many people even in the name of their Christian God that it is hard to believe in their scriptures (Bible). I can't believe in any scriptures when the rules are broken from the Religions Leaders!The worst was the witch-hunt that torched millions of innocent women in the name of the Christian God! If we compare both Religions with the Hindu scripture, we must admit that the Hindu Religion is well designed.Killing or harming of people are not allowed for the Priests (Brahman) and Monks (Sannyasin). Threatening without fighting is allowed to defend themselves. The Warriors (Kashitras) should be the ruler, Civil servants, and soldiers of the country.For the Hindus, it is impossible that a Brahman should rule the country. Because a Brahman has to be peacefully when their country is attacked. For Instance, the Dalai Lama or any Bishop would be inadequate to rule a country… Because their Darma is to be peacefully in any situation and this will never work out for any country. We can also learn from the Hindu scripture that punishment is necessary as it is to live a high morality as the leader. When the leader is immoral the subordinates will become unethical over time.We need punishment to teach people to become better… The Hindu system recommends the punishment should go in steps harder when the delinquent doesn't obey…For instance, your kid is beating up your other siblings.1.) In a friendly voice, you explain that this is not good and that he should not attack other kids.2.) In an unfriendly voice, you remind him what you have said before.3.) In an angry voice, you repeat what you said.4.) You threaten your kid that he will not get any pocket money if he continues.5.) You threaten your kid to hit him when he is doing it one time again.6.) You hit your nasty child…Non-violence (ahimsa) would not work out to educate a nasty child/delinquent… My Video: Why does non-violence not work? https://youtu.be/lZbCiKk17iYMy Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast.B/Why-does-non-violence-not-work.mp3
Baleine sous Gravillon - Nomen (l'origine des noms du Vivant)
Vous connaissez l'expression : derrière chaque grand homme, il y a souvent... un grand cheval qui l'a porté vers la gloire. Voici quelques fameux ayant porté des célébrités : Pégase était un cheval blanc ailé, né du sang de la Gorgone Méduse, décapitée par Persée. Domestiqué par le héros Bellérophon, Pégase l'aide à vaincre la Chimère. Pégase a été transformé par Zeus en une constellation d'étoiles. Bucéphale (tête de bœuf) était un étalon noir acheté par le père d'Alexandre le Grand, Philippe de Macédoine (Philippe signifie “ami des chevaux”). Le nom de Bucéphale vient du fait que sa tête ressemblait à celle d'un bœuf. Le Cheval de Troie offre le dénouement aux Grecs et précipite l'issue de la Guerre de Troie, après 10 ans de combats. Selon l'Odyssée, Ulysse se cache dans cette statue en bois avec des soldats, et sort la nuit pour ouvrir les portes de la cité aux soldats grecs. Aldebarran, Altaïr, Rigal, Sirius sont les 4 chevaux "stars" qui conduisent Ben Hur (Charlton Eston) à la victoire dans le péplum réalisé en 1959 par William Wyler. Incitatus était le cheval favori de l'empereur Caligula (37-41 après J-C) qui le considérait comme le fruit de la combinaison de tous les dieux. L'empereur lui fit construire une écurie en marbre avec une mangeoire en ivoire ; son collier était incrusté de pierres précieuses et il se reposait sur une ouverture pourpre. Il fut nommé Consul de l'empire par Caligula. Balamer fut la monture d'Attila, roi des Huns. Là où le cheval passait, l'herbe ne repoussait pas. Le cheval blanc d'Henri IV s'appelait Albe, qui signifie Blanc. Il était noir, ou beige ou gris, selon les auteurs… Rossinante est la moins reluisante de toutes les montures de cette liste. Mais, dans le roman de Cervantès, et pour son fantasque cavalier hidalgo, Don Quichotte, c'est la monture la plus intrépide du monde. Le Cheval cabré de Ferrari était peint sur la carlingue de l'avion de chasse de Francesco Baracca, aviateur héros de la 1ère guerre mondiale. Enzo Ferrari fit la connaissance de la comtesse Paolina, mère de Francesco Baracca, qui lui suggéra de mettre l'emblème de leur fils sur ses voitures pour lui porter chance. Le fond jaune est la couleur de la ville d'origine d'Enzo Ferrari, Modène. Jolly Jumper est le cheval le plus rapide de l'Ouest est monté par Lucky Luke depuis 1946 (créé par Morris) à travers 117 histoires. Il sait défaire des nœuds, jouer aux échecs, et faire des blagues. Il est de race Appaloosa et n'a que du mépris pour Rantanplan. Tornado porte le cavalier qui surgit du fond de la nuit : Zorro. Cet étalon noir aussi répond aux sifflements du “renard” qui combat l'injustice en Californie mexicaine. Petit-Tonnerre est un poulain mustang, le copain de Yakari, un jeune indien Sioux qui a le don de parler aux animaux, dessiné par Derib. Gripoil est le cheval de Gandalf dans Le Seigneur des Anneaux. Gripoil (Shadowfax en anglais) est le chef des Mearas, les plus grands chevaux de la Terre du Milieu, les descendants de Felaróf, le cheval parlant d'Eorl. Comme eux, il est de couleur grise ou argentée, et comprend le langage humain.Hébergé par Ausha. Visitez ausha.co/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.
Quite the show today. You'll have to listen to believe it.Dan in Leeds. What have you done?! He changed the course of our mission yesterday when he asked which UK huns would we send in to space? It escalated very quickly. UK huns Gemma, Alison, Denise, Nat and Carol are in! Even though the GC is claustrophobic Darren.This is getting silly now. Sir Richard Branson aka R BransHUN aka 00HUN, the first astronaut on his very own spaceship, has only gone and followed Greg. So the next obvious thing to do was to slide in to his DMs... He only went and replied! Go grab your helmet and onesie, we're off to become astronauts! One small step for man. One giant leap for hun-kind. Oh yeah and Hollywood is here! Casual. Hailee Steinfeld stopped by to give us her Unpopular Opinions. Put all eggs in the bin. Don't clear my table while I'm eating. Are we banning movie trailers? Also there's your standard updates in All The Latest Things and you can test yourself in Yesterday's Quiz. Are you smarter than Tilly? Let's see. What a day.
Jemma and Marina hardly know where to begin such has been the fallout from Trump's crazed tariffs spree. Oh, and what can you even say about the transparent insider (and outsider) trading that has been admitted to, on camera, by the President? Who cares if ordinary people are going to pay for the nose for everything when all his rich cronies are making a killing. Seems fair. Amidst the chaos there's been pauses, climb downs, exemptions and a locking of horns with China. However, China are giving strong 'am I bothered' vibes and have been busy exposing what really happens with luxury goods which are made in their factories. If Putin plays chess, China appear to be playing Go while Trump can barely manage a bit of colouring in. The Trawl ladies go into all the detail and play the moment when Vance managed to completely insult the second biggest economy in the world by calling them peasants. Then, it's one backward leap for feminism and one giant step for Trawl kind (or something like that). Everyone's talking about Katy Perry and Co's trip to space and how nauseating it was for a myriad of reasons. You can imagine how 24 carat the Trawl gold is for this one.

During the 5th century, one name struck fear into the hearts of almost every European: Attila, leader of the Huns. For a period of almost 20 years, Attila ravaged Europe, conquering various tribes and causing one of the largest migrations ever seen on the continent. Then, quite suddenly and unexpectedly, the conquests of Attila stopped, and the Huns were no longer a major power.

This podcast features YemmytheFerret (Yemmy), RaeofPositivity (Rae), Taymation Studios (Tay), and GreedyWaffle (Nick). This movie was recommended by Rae who is off to defeat the Huns! Fearful that her ailing father will be drafted into the Chinese military, Mulan takes his spot -- though, as a girl living under a patriarchal regime, she is technically unqualified to serve. She cleverly impersonates a man and goes off to train with fellow recruits. Accompanied by her dragon, Mushu, she uses her smarts to help ward off a Hun invasion, falling in love with a dashing captain along the way. Directed by Tony Bancroft and Barry Cook.

No Longer An Enemy.Book 3 in 18 parts, By FinalStand. Listen to the ► Podcast at Explicit Novels."My Sister wished to know if you speak Mandarin," the brother translated for me."Hi, I'm Cáel," I greeted him. "Who are you guys?" He looked to one of the two goons holding on to me. I received a painful kidney punch. I discovered a whole new super-power. It hurt for about two seconds then nothing."I asked you a question," he repeated."No, I don't speak Mandarin," I lied so well it came across as a dour confession."Yet you know the secretive language of the Earth & Sky," he stated."Yes, I do. I have a thing for dead languages. Maybe in a few more years, I'll pick up your Mother Tongue as well," I bantered.No punishment was immediately meted out, so I suspected no one close to me, besides him, spoke much if any English. Jian Bob (my new name for him) didn't relay my insult. I wasn't worth it. He went straight for the reason for our get-together."You are going to die, Mr. Nyilas. That is a given," J B began."We both know you have done enough damage to our cause to be worthy of elimination a hundred times over. I'm going to show you respect by not lying to you about your possible fate. What you can do is save your young companion. We understand you two are close," he appealed in a very polite manner. Aya snickered."Cáel, these people are mentally challenged," she giggled to me, "or hideously misinformed.""I know, I know," I smiled down at Aya. "Still, they have gone through a great deal of effort to insult our intellect today, so let's humor them a little longer." Jian Bob issued several casual orders.In short order, a third man had hold of me by the jaw with one hand while trying to hold my eyelids open with the other. One guard held her by the shoulders. A second held her right hand, extending her ring finger. A third man held a knife to her top knuckle. A forth stood close with a small blowtorch."She may be a small person, Mr. Nyilas, but she can still die by the Death of a Thousand cuts," he explained."I love you, Aya," I told her softly."I love you too, Fehér mén," she succeeding in keeping most of the fear from her voice.Neither one of us could stop this. Aya certainly didn't expect me to compromise the Host for her benefit. She was as much an Amazon as the first Epona."First, I wish to know what alerted you to the attack at the Summer Camp," Bob began the interrogation."We know you were responsible. We want to know what happened." I looked into his eyes and waited patiently. He nodded to the guard, who shoved my face toward Aya's extended finger until I was less than a foot away."Do it." The Order came in Mandarin.The guard cut the top part of the digit off, one knuckle. I looked at the flesh and bone being cut away. In a clinical manner, I noted how sharp the blade was. I saw the blood shoot forth and heard Aya's little voice cry out in pain. I was pulled back and pointed at Jian Bob again."Do I need to repeat the question for you?" he said."No, I caught it the first time," I grimaced. "It tells me that you haven't the slightest idea who you are fucking with." Bob made a slight hand gesture and the blowtorch cauterized Aya's stump. Her little lungs belted out a terrible screech that wound down as her feet gave out and she hung limply in the guard's grip."Revive her." The blowtorch guy, clearly not his first day on the job, snapped some smelling salts under her noise. Aya revived, sobbing and in a great deal of pain."Cáel," she whimpered. "I have found my stillness. I'll be okay now." Her sobs subsided."Shall we try this again?" J B remained coolly polite, almost urbane."Nah," I joked, "we are both pretty good over here.""Again." The Mandarin order came. Off went another digit of her ring finger. This time her scream was much more exuberant and forceful. We all know it hurt like Hell, but the world had turned."He's going to kill all of you," Aya snickered while she sobbed. "You are all going to die.""Mu, what is the little girl saying?" she asked Jian Bob, real name Mu."She is stating her belief that Cáel will somehow kill us all," he and his sister shared the joke. "Let us see what her tune is when they start in on her left hand," the woman smiled at her sibling.That implied they'd cut off her right thumb and fingers, digit by digit, until one, or both of us cracked. The man nodded and Aya's nub was burned again. Her scream was more of a cleansing shout."Cáel, do you think I will have a nice horse to ride when I join Epona's herds, or will I get a pony?" Aya whimpered."Not a clue," I began before Mu had the face-hugging guard apply a finger strike to my solar plexus. Alal's gift had allowed me to partially organize my brain functions. Coping with pain was a whole lot easier now, but I had to be careful to monitor it because pain was Nature's way of letting you know that there was something wrong with your body."What color would you like me to pick up and have waiting for you," punch, "when you finally take yourself to the cliffs?""Again.""This is accomplishing nothing," the senior bald Mo Fo grumbled. "He clearly cares nothing for the child and has been trained in counter-interrogation techniques.""There is nothing to indicate that," Mu bristled."Xiàsh, burn the tip of his left forefinger," senior necromancer commanded. The guy holding my face coordinated with the men holding my arms to free me of my bonds and wrestle my left arm forward. I didn't bother resisting.It didn't take the commandoes long to figure I had stopped caring. On came the flame and the pain. Oh, I screamed. The pain was real. What had changed was my ability to shuffle it off to an isolated memory file to be tackled later. The bald creep stepped into my field of vision. His eyes were windows to the abyss. My "spirit" sight opened my eyes to the truly inhuman sections of his mind and soul."See, normal techniques will not be affective. We will do it, " and they realized the enormity of their mistake by assuming I was paralyzed by the pain. I broke free of the guy on my left and began twisting around the guy on my right. I wasn't getting away, I was going for his QCW O5. I knew their favorite martial arts styles and their weaponry now.The guy I was rolling behind realized what I was doing (going for his gun), but mistook my intentions. I wasn't trying to get away, or steal the gun (still strapped to his body). That cockhead even helped me out by lurching ground-ward. I swung the gun up, hit the selector and fired two quick bursts.The first three rounds hit Mr. Blowtorch in his right thigh, shredding it. The second burst caught Mr. Knife guy in the crotch, a triple 21mm castration. Had Blowtorch Guy not been busy trying to keep the strands of his right hip connected to his right leg, he could have stopped the blood fountaining from his buddies shattered groin. That was the end of my joy.I was born to the ground and the guy whose gun I'd borrowed pulled away. I hit the concrete surface hard. That was only the beginning of my issues. Radiating from the floor was cold beyond cold. I had the sensation of falling into the heart of a cold, dead star. How I even knew what the felt like was an impossibility."He feels very cold," protested one of the two guards, in Mandarin; pulling me back to my feet groused."If your incompetence has led to his terminal condition," the male twin threatened. I felt the approach of the female twin, her reaching for me. A new intense pain seared me to the cores of my bones. Before she yanked my hair up, my body reignited.I found myself stared into her pitiless eyes that regarded me with the casual callousness of a veterinarian preparing to put down some rabid stray dog. She ran three fingers over my cheek."What are you babbling about?" she snapped at the two commandoes. "If anything, he is feverish.""Zhen, have him sedated," Chief Necromancer demanded. "Mu, now we will do this my way." Once more I was bound. Someone stabbed a needle into my right triceps. That was a mere discomfort. If I had any consolation, it was hearing Mu ordering the execution of the two men I'd shot.They didn't have the time and facilities to tend to their immediate emergency needs and taking them to a trauma center wasn't going to happen. Those two went into body bags. I had to assume they would be joining us on the plane, though they'd be in the cargo compartment."What are you smiling at?" I heard Zhen snapping before my world collapsed down to a pinhole of light."Lady, I don't know what you said," Aya declared happily. "You are probably angry that Cáel has already killed two of you and we haven't even got off the ground yet." I heard a sound I couldn't make out followed by another and finally a third. That resulted in an Aya-squeak. Ah, she'd tried to hit Aya and Aya had dodged the first two blows. Good girl."Cáel isn't going to like you doing that," Aya chirped."Aya's a winner," I mumbled. I wasn't in control of my senses when they dragged me onto a waiting jet. I wasn't worried. With Aya at my side, I was invincible.DreamingI looked at her face, so youthful, beautiful in her own way, yet far from innocent. She bore a terrible weight. The armor she was wearing, that of a heavy horseman of the steppe, was a leather coat, chain links over her vulnerable regions (throat, underarms and skirt), with the rest being covered by darkened bronze plates.Her iron helmet was open-faced with mobile plates covering her cheeks as well as the sides and the back of her neck; it bore a white horse-hair plume, it was the only feature of her panoply that would draw any special attention her way. She carried no shield. Instead, she wielded a powerful horn & sinew composite recurve bow. She used her knees to rise up on her mount and fire over the mare's head.Similarly attired women rode close to either side of this young woman. Both were older; one in her early forties and the other ~ late thirties. The one to the left bore a lance, not in the couched fashion most people today are familiar with, but used in a double-handed over-head fighting style.The woman to the right fought with a strange blade. It wasn't saber ~ an ancestor of that blade perhaps. It was about a meter long, no hand guard, single-edged except for the top 4 cm on the back side which was equally sharp. Her left hand remained free. I think I saw her purpose. If the young woman got into difficulty, her guardian on the right could pull her horse away and lead the woman to safety.Behind and beside those three rode perhaps three hundred of their sisters. Those in the center were as heavily armored as those three. On each flank were the lighter, faster bow-women, on smaller steeds. The women in the center rode larger mounts that were good for carrying weight and pushing home a charge, while the flanking steppe ponies were virtually tireless.In the center, identified only by her long golden-mane helm, was the Golden Mare ~ War Leader of the Host. The Amazons didn't fly pennants or carry banners. They judged the course of battle by that woman's head movements (the mane was quite long) and the shrill horn blasts unique to the Amazons.Let the barbarians have the all too common deep booming horns calls and their totems raised high for the world to see. Let the Romans keep their trumpets and Legion standards. Amazons had been putting those fools in their graves from time immemorial. Right now, those horns had summoned the Host to a trot.The Hun, Attila, had tasked the Sarmatian Chieftain, under whose banner they rode, to deal with another crisis, the third this short day. Once more, they directed their horses over Catalaunian Fields. The Ostrogoth had gotten themselves into a world of trouble, those filthy, stinking Germans (why was I even thinking that way?)First the Amazons had ridden forth on Attila's right, reinforcing the allied Germanic tribes on the Right Wing in their attempt to force a wedge between Aetius' Romans and King Sangiban's Alans. They'd shown the fools the way, but the supporting Gepids cavalry was too timid and by the time they began to approach, the Golden Mare had been forced to sound 'retire'.The Roman auxiliary cavalry, though of poor quality, had plugged the gap. The Host were too few and too valuable (in their estimation) to die holding a position that their 'allies' might not rescue them from. Next, they had been directed to attack the center of the Alan cavalry line in support of the Huns.Despite the cowardice of their king, the Alans were hardy fighters and too accustomed to the style of steppe warfare that the Host practiced to be lured away from their position. Arrows were exchanged and brief, brutal skirmishes developed, but no advantage was gained. With their mounts exhausted, the Golden Mare had ordered the Host to retired to their camp to water their horses and refill their quivers.That bit of common sense and tactical wisdom placed them in their present crisis. Their Ostrogoth allies had been beating themselves against their Visigoth cousins all afternoon, charging up the same cursed slope that any sane commander would have found a way to flank. No, the Germans had failed seven times using the same plan, so they tried an eighth.Miraculously, they had gained a toehold on the ridgeline and killed the Visigothic King. Like a mob of mindless farmers, the Ostrogoths stopped to celebrate their 'victory' and taunt the Visigoths with the mutilated body of their fallen leader. The Visigoths had been properly incensed and counter-attacked. That's what Princes were for, to avenge their fallen Sires.As the Host exited the Hunnic laager, they'd seen the calamity unfold. The wavering Visigoth infantry had stiffened their line. Believing the Ostrogoths would press forward, the Horse-tail banner of Attila himself broke away from the central Hunnic body, pivoted to his left and thundered into the Visigoth's exposed flank.In the din of battle, it may have looked to the Great Warlord that he had a vanishing opportunity for victory. From the valley below, it was much clearer to the Amazons that the moment to break the Visigothic infantry had passed. The Huns were too tired; their mounts frothing from a long, hot afternoon of battle. Without a swift follow-through, the attack was doomed.At that point, headlong flight for the Amazons wasn't possible. Their long term survival hung on the Hunnic King keeping his Germanic 'allies' in line. They were still somewhere in eastern Roman Gaul, with the Rhine to ford and a land thick with perpetually vicious, blood-thirsty, crotch-scratching, flea-bitten Germanic barbarians to cross before they saw the green rolling hills of home again.No, the Golden Mare, and that young lady knew they had to do something to stem the tide of this disaster for another hour, then darkness would force the combatants to separate so they could try their hand at battle the next day. As the Golden Mare rode to the Sarmatian Chieftain, a rider came through the dust from Attila. The Visigothic cavalry had returned with a vengeance and the Ostrogoths were folding up.The Sarmatians (with their attached Amazons) were to 'somehow' repair the situation. As the Chieftain, the Golden Mare and three Sarmatian tribal leaders hastily discussed the actions. They saw the Hunnic Right, under hard pressure from the Roman attack, beginning to disintegrate. Of immediate concern was the rift opening up between the retreating Hunnic Gepids and the Hunnic horsemen holding the center.King Sangiban had finally discovered his manhood. The Alans attacked through that gap in the Hunnic lines and a rout was in the offing. The Sarmatian Leader decided he had to answer Attila's call. The Golden Mare offered to take her Amazons and whichever tribal leader volunteered first to ride with her against the Alans.She drew her sword and held it aloft then motioned the Sarmatians to look at her shadow."We will hold them off until the length of our swords double (the shadow). Then we are all on our own," she offered. There was no further discussion necessary. There was nothing else to say. The Host and their allies had the fresher horses and full quivers.The Alans had numbers but no heavy horse present, yet. The Host had answered Attila's call to war and now, nearly a year away from their homes in the forested steppe lands of modern-day Bukovina. At that moment they were wondering how few of them would ever see their horse herds roaming free this side of life.That was where my vision came in ~ that woman was 'Ishara', the last of my major bloodline of the first Ishara and this was the last hour of her life. The other two women were the only other two members of that vanishing bloodline. One was her aunt and the other a cousin. Despite the dire peril to their lineage, they joined their sisters in battle.Even though they were outnumber 2 to 1, the Amazons swept aside the first burst of Alans, scattering their bands and hunting the slowest of them down. Rushing alone to fill the gaping hole in the main battle lines was to abandon all tactical sense. Eighty Amazon heavy horse and perhaps twenty more Sarmatians ~ they were integrated now ~ alone simply weren't enough.For the roughly 300 lightly armored horse-archers, it would be a pointless suicide and that was not the Amazon way. Instead, they scattered the initial Alan rush then gently trotted back down the slope. Of course, the Alans regrouped and followed. It was the battle pulse of steppe skirmishing.By simply existing, they turned the rushing wave of that first Alan charge into a slowly strengthening tide. The Alans' mounts were tired and in need of water. Their quivers were nearly empty and some were seen at the top of the slope looting the quivers of the fallen. Whenever they could, the Amazons killed those clever souls.Killing an archer closer to you who only had two arrows left wasn't as economical as killing the one who was both dismounted, thus an easier shot, and about to have fifteen bolts to use against you. Without the constant harassment, the Gepids were able to keep their retreat orderly. In turn, the other Germanics farther to the right kept their mobs relatively intact as well.Their success earned them the inevitable enemy reaction. From his vantage point, the Roman Aetius saw the vulnerable and unsupported position the Amazons held. If he could push past the Amazon screen, he could still achieve a route instead of accepting a mere victory for his side. The solution was a force of

Explore the captivating story of the Romanian revolution of 1989, a pivotal moment shaped by the country's rich history of resisting and embracing external influences. This intricate tapestry of events traces back to the second century AD when the Roman Emperor Trajan conquered the region, leaving an indelible mark in the form of plundered gold. Subsequent waves of invaders, including Goths, Huns, Bulgars, Magyars, and Ottomans, were met with fierce resistance, led by legendary figures like Vlad The Impaler. Each conqueror left behind a lasting legacy, contributing to Romania's unique heterogeneity in a region dominated by homogeneity. While neighboring Slavic countries followed certain paths, Romania charted its own course, embracing Orthodox Christianity while adopting the Latin alphabet. As a result, Romanian stands as the language most closely linked to modern Italian, setting it apart from the predominantly Slavic, Turkic, or Greek languages spoken in the Balkan nations. Join us in this episode as we unravel the complex historical threads that culminated in the Romanian revolution of 1989, shedding light on a nation's enduring spirit of resistance and its quest for a distinct identity.

This is the man that even contemporaries referred to as THE LAST ROMAN. Only son of General Gaudentius, born in Durostorum, a frontier fortress on the Danube, Aetius, he wound up in the West after his father fought under Emperor Theodosius at the Frigidus. From there he found himself on a fast track that would send him as a hostage to Alaric and the Goths, and from there to Uldin and the Huns where he would grow up amongst Rome's most fearsome enemies. When he was released by the Huns in his early 30's and returned to Ravenna, there was no man that had the knowledge of those enemies like Aetius, something that the Empress, Galla Placidia, knew all too well, as did his enemies at court...

Send us a textChaos & Mayhem in South Dakota. Lots of grouse, huns, pheasants and hunters too! Several day hunts from five weeks spent in South Dakota last season. "One morning I left the truck at 11:00 with Mayhem and was back before noon with the three bird limit. A clean triple of sharptails. A couple hunters stopped to chat as I was stowing birds. They said their pointers had moved about 80 birds that morning and they got one. I didn't tell them that Mayhem flushed one covey of 7 and I shot three." A few days having fun with my buddy Russ. A 3 species day with Chaos and a combo limit of sharps and pheasants. More South Dakota hunts in the next episode.

The medieval world – for all its plagues, papal indulgences, castles, and inquisition trials – has much in common with ours. People living the Middle Ages dealt with deadly pandemicsmass migration, and controversial technological changes, just as we do now.Today’s guest, Dan Jones, author of POWERS AND THRONES: A New History of the Middle Ages looks at these common features through a cast of characters that includes pious monks and Byzantine emperors, chivalric knights and Renaissance artists. This sweep of the medieval world begins with the fall of the Roman empire and ends with the first contact between the Old World and the New. Along the way, Jones provides a front row seat to the forces that shaped the Western world as we know it. This is the thousand years in which our basic Western systems of law, commerce, and governance were codified; when the Christian Churches matured as both powerful institutions and the regulators of Western public morality; and when art, architecture, philosophical inquiry and scientific invention went through periods of seismic change. We discuss:• The height of the Roman empire and its influential rulers, as well as the various reasons it fell, including climate change pushing the Huns and so-called “barbarian” tribes to the empire’s borders.• The development of Christianity and Islam, as well as the power struggles and conflict ignited in the name of religion, chivalric orders such as the Knights Templar, and the rise of monasteries as major political players in the West.• The intimate stories of many influential characters of the Middle Ages, such as Constantine I, Justinian, Muhammad, Attila the Hun, Charlemagne, El Cid, Leonardo Da Vinci, Genghis Khan, Marco Polo, Martin Luther, and many more.• The development of global trade routes and commerce across Europe, Asia, and Africa and the expanding map during the Age of Exploration.• The Black Death, which decimated up to sixty percent of the local population in the fourteenth century and led to widespread social unrest and the little Ice Age, the period between 1300-1850 triggered by volcanic activity that created a climate so regularly and bitterly cold that it contributed to the Great Famine of 1315-21.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Help keep our podcast going by contributing to our Patreon! How would Alaric of the Visigoths celebrate the midwinter holiday (Christmas? Solstice? Yule?). The idea was kicked around a lot between the two of us until it seemed imperative that we actually write this episode. And thus, an episode was born. In this episode, Alaric is about six years old. He doesn't exactly understand that his life is hanging by a knife's edge – caught between the invading Huns and the colonizing Romans. This is the story of a little boy just trying to do the right thing and not get his belly slit open by the Perchta, as one does around this time of year. So sit back, pour yourself a festive holiday beverage, and enjoy this very fictional, occasionally true episode. Sponsors & Advertising This podcast is a member of Airwave Media podcast network.

Les Wisigoths et les Ostrogoths étaient deux branches principales du peuple goth, un groupe germanique qui joua un rôle important dans l'histoire de l'Europe pendant la période de la fin de l'Empire romain. Bien qu'ils partageaient des origines communes, ils se sont séparés et ont développé des histoires et des cultures distinctes. Origines et séparationLes Goths étaient originaires d'Europe de l'Est, et au IIIe siècle, ils se sont divisés en deux groupes principaux : les Wisigoths (« Goths de l'Ouest ») et les Ostrogoths (« Goths de l'Est »). Cette séparation géographique a conduit à des différences dans leur histoire et leur mode de vie. Les Wisigoths se sont installés plus à l'ouest, principalement dans la région de la mer Noire, tandis que les Ostrogoths sont restés plus à l'est, dans ce qui est aujourd'hui l'Ukraine et la Russie occidentale. Les WisigothsLes Wisigoths ont été parmi les premiers groupes barbares à entrer en contact avec l'Empire romain. Après avoir été poussés vers l'ouest par les invasions des Huns au IVe siècle, ils ont traversé le Danube et pénétré en territoire romain. En 378, ils ont infligé une défaite majeure aux Romains lors de la bataille d'Andrinople. En 410, sous la direction de leur roi Alaric, les Wisigoths ont même pris Rome, un événement marquant dans la chute de l'Empire romain d'Occident. Après avoir erré dans diverses régions, les Wisigoths ont fondé un royaume dans le sud de la Gaule (France actuelle) et en Hispanie (Espagne actuelle). Leur royaume, avec Toulouse comme première capitale, est devenu l'un des royaumes barbares les plus influents d'Europe occidentale après la chute de Rome en 476. Cependant, en 711, il fut conquis par les Arabes. Les OstrogothsLes Ostrogoths, quant à eux, sont restés sous la domination des Huns jusqu'à la mort d'Attila en 453, après quoi ils ont pu retrouver leur indépendance. Sous le leadership de leur roi Théodoric le Grand, ils se sont installés en Italie et ont fondé un puissant royaume en 493, prenant le contrôle de Rome et de la majeure partie de la péninsule italienne. Théodoric a cherché à maintenir une coexistence pacifique entre les Goths et les Romains, respectant les traditions romaines tout en assurant le pouvoir gothique. Cependant, leur royaume ne dura pas longtemps. Après la mort de Théodoric, l'Empire byzantin a lancé une série de campagnes pour reprendre l'Italie, et en 553, les Ostrogoths furent vaincus. ConclusionEn résumé, les Wisigoths et les Ostrogoths étaient deux branches distinctes des Goths qui ont évolué séparément après leur séparation au IIIe siècle. Les Wisigoths ont fondé un royaume en Gaule et en Espagne, tandis que les Ostrogoths ont établi un royaume en Italie. Bien qu'ils aient partagé des origines communes, leurs destins ont été influencés par leur localisation géographique et les contextes historiques dans lesquels ils ont évolué. Hébergé par Acast.

Since the dawn of the Greek Classical Era up to World War II, thousands have lost their lives fighting over the pass at Thermopylae.. The epic events of 480 BC when 300 Spartans attempted to hold the pass has been immortalized in poetry, art, literature and film. But that is not the only battle fought there. Twenty-six other battles and holding actions took place, and they were fought by Romans, Byzantines, Huns and Ottomans during the early and late medieval periods and finally the two desperate struggles against German occupying forces during World War II.To discuss it is today's guest, Michael Livingston, author of “The Killing Ground: A Biography of Thermopylae” The Killing Ground details the background and history of each conflict, the personalities and decision making of the commanders, the arms and tactics of the troops, and how each battle played out.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us a textThis week on the Montana Outdoor Podcast your host Downrigger Dale continues his series about all the hunting opportunities across Montana. This week he talks with Region 6 Wildlife Manager Scott Thompson to find out where the best places are to find Elk, Mule Deer, Whitetails, Antelope, Turkeys, Pheasants, Waterfowl and more! Scott gives all kinds of detailed information about all those things and more. In fact, Rigger and Scott got into a great conversation about landowner participation in the block management program in Region 6 and boy you have to listen to the podcast and hear what Scott had to say about that! Wow!!! Another very interesting question that Rigger asked Scott what his favorite thing was to hunt in Region 6. What do you suppose his answer was? You guessed it, you will need to listen to the podcast to find out. We think the answer may surprise you! Another interesting thing that surprised Rigger was just how big this hunting region is.

I'll never forget the first time I heard the music of the iconic noise-rock band The Jesus Lizard — it was more than thirty years ago, thanks to my older brother Michael playing me their song “Seasick,” from the band's second studio album, Goat, released in 1991 and produced by the legendary Steve Albini. That song blew my mind. It made me feel like I was actually inside of the tune itself, and that, like the narrator of the song, yowling about how he “can't swim,” that I was somehow drowning in the music. Not in a scary way — in an empowering, visceral way. It's a song I still go back to, and that album is one I go back to all the time. It was a thrill to get to ask David about that song, in particular, about working with Albini, and so much more. In this episode, David discusses his earliest creative inclinations as a visual artist, and as a music lover and musician, and how everything changed when he discovered punk rock at age twenty. We also delved into the making of the first new studio album by The Jesus Lizard in twenty-six years, their excellent, newly released LP Rack. Although he cites influences such as the Beatles and Queen and The Huns and Fear and Nick Cave's band The Birthday Party, what David does is a thing unto itself. He is truly an inimitable performer and it was an honor to speak to him for this episode.
Man alive! What a trip! On our last night of the Grouse tour all of us sat down to recap the highs and lows of our trip. Central Montana was lousy with birds this year and boy did we need it after chasing mountain birds. There were plentiful numbers of Sage Grouse. The best numbers of Huns and Sharptails that I have ever seen in the country. And we even found a rattlesnake and lived to tell the tale!

Robert asks "I really enjoyed the article about the Hunnic Siege of Naissus. However, I had a question about the Hunnic siege engines described and illustrated in the article. They look like proto-trebuchets with mantlets to protect the crew, and instead of a counterweight or pulleys, the archer platform looks like primitive cherry picker trucks. My question is why did the Huns construct these unique engines? Is there any evidence why or do scholars have any theories? Did they have insufficient resources to construct regular siege towers and catapults? Did the Huns want to bring their strength of arrow storms to bear? Or were the Huns just unique?"

After conquering all of Asia and Europe from China's coast to France, Attila The Hun had amassed an incredible treasure of gold, silver, and artifacts- enough treasure that it required an atmy just to protect it. When he died in 453 AD, according to one account, he was interred in three coffins- an outer one of lead, a middle one of silver, and an inner one of gold. His huge treasure, which is thought to be priceless, has never been found, although it is still searched for today. This is the story of Attila the Hun and the search for his missing gold.
