Über diesen Titel
In 260 AD, the unthinkable happened.
A Roman emperor was captured alive by a foreign enemy.
Not killed in battle.
Not ransomed.
Not executed.
Instead, Emperor Valerian was publicly humiliated—forced to kneel while the Persian king used him as a human footstool.
This wasn’t just a personal tragedy. It was a symbol of something far bigger: the Roman Empire was breaking.
This video takes you inside the Third Century Crisis, when Rome was collapsing under:
• Hyperinflation caused by currency debasement
• Endless wars on every frontier
• A devastating plague killing thousands per day
• Political chaos and emperors murdered by their own armies
Valerian’s capture shocked the ancient world and shattered the myth of Roman invincibility.
And here’s the disturbing part:
The patterns that destroyed Rome didn’t disappear.
They repeat.
Watch to understand how Rome reached this moment, what happened to Valerian after his capture, and why this humiliation marked the beginning of the end.
History doesn’t repeat.
But it does rhyme.
