And so our trilogy on empires comes to a close. I am exhausted. Anyways, go check out Squarespace (squarespace.com/hellofutureme), but also, come check out the site I've built myself: timhicksonyt.com/ It's still pretty rudimentary, and that's because I want to know what you want on there. I'll be featuring snippets of work from members of community there, and there instructions on how to submit on the site. Hope you've enjoyed this trilogy as much as I have! Stay nerdy ~ Tim

This is why I liked the Star Wars EU as a kid: the books and comics showed that there were another twenty one years of war after RotJ; fighting between several factions before there was finally a brief peace in the galaxy. And the Empire was still around at the end of it, living [uneasily] side by side with the New Republic and plenty of grizzled veterans weren’t happy about it. Very tense. Very realistic. Loved it!

"23 democratic stabs to the chest" gonna quote that when we get to Caesar in my Ancient Rome class

Listening to this two years in the future and hearing this line dropped: "Authors tend to relegate the effects of disease to history or fantasy, but microbial pandemics are far from irrelevant." I know they are now 😩😭
-
Ah yes, the Summer empire. The greatest empire ever known to grade schoolers, only to be defeated by their eventual Fall.
-
Why is the God-Emperor in the thumbnail of a video about empires falling? BLASPHEMY, I SAY. THE IMPERIUM SHALL NEVER FALL.

Hello Future Me: "Another kind of succession crisis is where the Empire purposefully divides itself amongst its successors. Because...eh...why? Just why?" Me: Remembers the Trauma that is CK2. Gavelkind.

Take a drink everytime a Sith Empire falls.

"all empires fall" tell that to the imperium of Man

The knight should always follow after you say 'History is complicated' I feel naked and unsafe without the knight.

I know this trilogy is meant for writers, but these three videos are great for anyone who wants or needs to learn a about how empires work, whether for history class, to understand more about modern politics, or just to approach the topic. Thank you for such an amazing content.

While the stress of a longer video series is unfortunate, the end result is incredible. I found myself looking forward to the next parts. So, if you could, more things like this - produced over a longer period of time, not as soon as humanly possible without sleep, as to be less stressful and more sustainable - that'd be fantastic. Stay nerdy! ...And healthy. Seriously, Tim, please take care of yourself. <3

9:00 Well, not exactly; the Astronomicon allows the Imperium's Navigators to traverse the Warp while knowing generally where they are (since the terrain of the warp constantly changes and time doesn't flow the same way as it does in the material world). It's more of a Control element, since it's basically a giant space lighthouse that makes FTL travel feasible.

"Ah Rashek, always doing his best to preserve the Empire against ruin" I see what you did there

"Microbial pandemics are far from irrelevant" Who else is watching this in 2020???

so glad you referenced mistborn and also how Aang defeating the Empire so quick left a lot unresolved and so much chaos and confusion
