This is the best longform documentary that the algorithm has suggested in a long time, really well written
-
We go on about British Colonialism, American Colonialism, French Colonialism, but not enough about Turkish Colonialism.

Having been born and raised abroad in Kuwait (Living in *South East Asia now)- learning more about the Middle East through your channel is like meeting an old friend again, and listening to the history he has to share about that world I used to live and grow up in. More power to your channel, man. By far a comprehensive attempt to outline and define the Middle East of what was and what currently is without leanings or bias of western takes. Cheers.

This is such a great documentary - I am going to require each of my kids to watch it. My one complaint is that it would have been nice to start with the fall of the Ottoman Empire after WWI and then go into detail about how the various Mideastern states merged from that including the colonial power and UN involvement. These things are mentioned in passing but I feel like more groundwork there as a preface to the rest of the documentary would have been beneficial.

This came together great! To break down one of the most complicated regions in modern history is no easy task
-
Europe isn't this utopia that everyone makes out. It's only been peaceful for the last 90 or so years. Otherwise you can see with all the micro states, cantons of Switzerland which doesn't even have a single head of state, it has SEVEN, yes SEVEN coequal heads of state. The autonomous countries within countries like Catalonia in Spain. These arrangements aren't there by accident. They've come about after a lot of war and strife
-
This fills me with sadness. So many dead and displaced, across different religions and cultures. So many kids growing up surrounded by conflict and division. I hope the young and confident people of the middle east can rise above division and generational trauma and bring a new golden age to their home.

fantastic video on the modern history of middle east in just one and half hours , much better than our history classes in high school taught by incompetent teachers over period of three hours , thank guys enjoyed it
-
This is exactly what I was looking for to try to understand the broader context around the recent Israel-Palestine violence. Thank you!
-
Can't believe I watched this for free on YouTube. Amazing. Stupendous work sir's and ma'ams. 🙏🏽
-
I honestly can't say anything about this other than, phenomenal. Great work on this video 👏
-
Thank you for sharing your knowledge of history with others. I appreciate your time and effort. I'm from Philadelphia USA and we have rich history here but it seems like the revolution and George Washington happened last week compared to old school middle eastern history. I mean ottomans, Persians, Alexander the Great, the fertile crescent, and the garden of eden. I am in awe. God Bless and take care my fellow history loving friend. 🤝

I am a simple man, I see a new Hikma History and I like it. Keep up the good work :-)
-
This is amazing, more docs like this please
-
Amazing work and amazing history (but sad at the same time).
-
Great video. Pls continue making more by including more nations/ areas.
-
Fantastic video Mate. What I love about your videos you not only highlight the obvious problems and peoples but also highlight what can only be described as diplomatic heros. People walking a diplomatic tightrope even if unfortunately risking paying with their lives.

Good stuff, Brotha!! ❤🤙
