AUDIO ONLY! FOR VIDEO: • 16. Bagan - City of Te...
In the lowlands of Burma lie the remains of thousands of crumbling temples...
In this episode, we tell one of the most colourful stories of civilizational survival: the story of the Bagan Empire of Myanmar. Find out how this kingdom rose up in the Irrawaddy river valley of central Myanmar, and built one of the most remarkable series of monuments to have survived from the medieval world. Discover what life was like for the people who lived there, and find out what happened to cause its sudden and complete collapse.

  • You have no idea the feeling I get when I see a new one of these are released. I'm a GoT fan, and I get more hyped seeing one of these drop than a new GoT episode. These are so well made. If the History Channel had only made videos like these instead of Ancient Aliens and the like... And instead some really hard working bloke from the UK is getting it done. Praise be. I can't imagine the work that goes into these. Heartfelt thanks.

Thank you for all your wonderful work.

  • I've had the honor to visit Bagan and it is one of the most amazing moments of my life. The grand temples are beautiful, but even greater was the feeling of exploring a region by yourself. Travling around the plain on a moped, I discovered a small building that wasnt a temple, none of the Buddhist iconography was present. And judging by the immense amount of cobwebs, I was the first person there in a long time, exploring this building, getting onto its top floor and looking out. Truly, truly amazing

  • I’ve just had an old university friend stay overnight (we graduated 40 years ago). We were talking about which podcasts and KZhead channels we liked, and both agreed Fall of Civilisations is the very best. Paul’s voice is so right as narrator. He builds a narrative with background detail that carries enormous emotional feeling of ages past, whilst at the same time imparting the history is a matter-of-fact manner. Better than anything on TV. By the way, my friend and I are both farmers, with a deep attachment to the history of our respective locales.

  • Another interesting story about a civilization I did not expect. The way these Burmese chronicles relate the history of the Bagan kingdom really feels like a chivalric novel. The poems are also very beautiful. I didn't know that Myanmar had such a rich poetic tradition. The excessive power and wealth of the priesthood were also a cause of decline for the New Kingdom of Egypt. The priests became rich and powerful enough to compete with the government, resulting in the fragmentation of the state. I wonder whether you will deal or not with Egypt in the future. You would either have to make a very long video or at least two or three, to cover completely such a long-lasting civilization. Otherwise you could make something about Medieval Armenia, starting from the ruins of Ani, the Kievan Rus or the Kushan Empire.

  • I was so excited to see a new episode that I immediately ditched how I had planned to spend my evening and listened to this instead. I learn so much about civilizations I never knew existed when I listen to your podcasts. Thank you so very much!

  • In the early 21th century, the little-known Dutch internet explorer, SevenProvinces, stumbled on his 16th video by Fall of Civilizations in, what was then known, as the youtube region. Stumbling through inane videos, hysterical conspiracy theories, an uncountable multitude of cat videos it was - with a breathe of clear relief that he noted "omg yes! Another Fall of Civilization video!, Thank you so much! These are, still and always, some of the best, if not the best historical documentaries on youtube and well beyond."
