YES

I would love a movie about Cortes but it'd never be made these days without being massively judgemental.

I mean, they would butcher it of course. Make them into caricatures of ebil, while the oppressed would be rendered as paragons of innocence and virtue. Probably no grey areas whatsoever that would accurately reflect the madness that went on there.

Fall of Constantinople.

>Constantine died the day the city fell, 29 May 1453. There were no known surviving eyewitnesses to the death of the Emperor and none of his entourage survived to offer any credible account of his death. According to Michael Critobulus (writing later in Mehmed's service), he remarked, "The city is fallen and I am still alive." Then he tore off his imperial ornaments so as to let nothing distinguish him from any other soldier and led his remaining troops in a last charge where he was killed.

It would be pure fucking kino

Reminder that the amount of White people in the Congo was very small and the extent of the territory actually controlled was a incredibly small part of the total Congo colony and limited to the navigable rivers. Committing atrocities was never an official policy, and the majority of atrocities were actually committed by native Africans. Private White-owned companies were given land, and they employed a paramilitary force, made up of NATIVE AFRICANS.

>Reports from foreign missionaries and consular officials detail a number of instances where Congolese men and women were flogged or raped by soldiers of the Force Publique, unrestrained by their officers and NCOs. They also burned recalcitrant villages and there is evidence, including photographs, that FP soldiers cut off human hands either as trophies or to show that bullets had not been wasted.
>During the Free State period, the Force Publique suffered from institutional problems. During the early years of the force, mutinies of black soldiers occurred several times. By the early 1890s, much of the eastern portion of the Free State was under the control of Arab ivory and slave traders (though the Government was able to re-establish control over the east by the mid-1890s). Organizational problems were also quite prevalent during the Free State era. With many Force Publique detachments being stationed in remote areas of the territory, some officers took to using soldiers under their control to further private economic agendas rather than focusing on military concerns. By the end of 1891, the force had 60 officers, 60 non-commissioned officers, and 3,500 black soldiers. Friendly tribes and militias were often used to help exert control over the outermost parts of the Free State.

The only failure of the White man in the Congo was failing to control his territory and prevent cruelties. Any media narrative about White slave masters personally genociding or mistreating Africans is a total fabrication.

Almost certainly didn't happen like this.

Siege of Castelnuovo (18 July – 6 August 1539)

>By 23 July, Barbarossa's army was ready to begin a general assault and his artillery prepared to break down the walls of Castelnuovo. Enjoying a vast numerical superiority over the Spanish garrison, which was completely isolated and unable to receive support or supplies, Barbarossa offered an honorable surrender to the Spanish. Sarmiento and his men would be granted a safe passage to Italy, the soldiers retaining their weapons and flags. Barbarossa added to his offer the incentive of giving each soldier 20 ducats. His only demand to Sarmiento was the abandonment of his artillery and gunpowder. Two squad corporals of Captain Vizcaino's company, Juan Alcaraz and Francisco de Tapia, managed to return to Naples and write their version of events many years later. They recorded the answer given to Barbarossa that "the Maestro de Campo consulted with all the captains, and the captains with his officers, and they decided that they preferred to die in service of God and His Majesty."

Conrad's "Heart of the darkness" adaptated into miniseries fucking when

Caesar's conquest of gaul, some of the most kino military campaigning in human history.

That dude's entire military career is worthy of a several seasons-long indepth series. If the guy didn't fight the most large-scale battles out of anyone pre-modernity then I don't know who did. I guess maybe some chink or mongol could've racked up more, but they were no doubt far less kino.

impossible to do a series or even a movie about the fall of rome.

Rome didn't "fall" in some epic event. It was more like a dissolution until it only held symbolic authority until some german warlord finally end the charade and not appoint any new emperor in the west

the decline of the western roman empiire gives a lot of material for a good series, but i can't imagine a series about the fall of rom

what's your point?

It was still the belgians who installed the system which relied on commiting these atrocitities.

That the acts were carried out by other africans doesn't relieve the belgians in any way

Wait, do people still believe the sea peoples where THE big proponents of the collapse?

Wasn't this because some idiot left a door unlocked?

I hope I didn't come across as implying that. That's why I wanted there to be commentary on Systems Collapse as a refutation of commonly held notions of monocausality.

This is revolting.

And also hot.

Read what? Historians refer to the fall of Constantinople as a fall, are you really going against generations of historical consensus?

and also from a fanfic

history is debateable.
Id call it a siege. the city didn't fall. its rule did.

Maybe.
Strangely, when Alexander besieged Thebes, he managed to take over the city because someone left one of the gates unattended.
Seems to be a pattern in Greece.

If you want to read the most epic account ever written read "The True History of The Conquest of New Spain", written by a soldier who lived it all firsthand. It's like a mix of Master & Commander, The New World and Lawrence of Arabia on steroids.

In this case it really isn't. The institutions of the Byzantine state did not survive, the religion was overthrown.

I'd quite like to see a series centered around the sons of Gustav Vasa and their escapades.

>king Gustav I was elected king after freeing Sweden from Danish rule, and in turn basically created modern Sweden
>after his death his second son eloped with a Polish princess, an enemy and a catholic, and was imprisoned by his brother, now the king
>then the king had a mental breakdown, released his brother, and murdered a few nobles in prison
>nobles force him to abdicate and imprison him and put his newly released brother on the throne
>brother then has the old king assassinated
>his son, who is now the king of Poland eventually inherits the Swedish crown
>Gustav I's third son doesn't want no Catholic on the throne and starts a civil war
>wins and becomes king
>makes cuckolding publishable by death
>his son ends up becoming Gustavus Adolphus

Well that or a biopic about Thomas Blake Glover.

Rome getting its ass kicked?

Don't forget about the mentally handicapped fourth brother and Erik marrying the 14-year-old stablemasters daughter pissing off the nobles even more

>Lieutenant General Sir Adrian Paul Ghislain Carton de Wiart(5 May 1880 – 5 June 1963) was a British Army officer born of Belgian and Irish parents. He was awarded the Victoria Cross, the highest military decoration awarded for valour "in the face of the enemy" in various Commonwealth countries. He served in the Boer War, First World War, and Second World War. He was shot in the face, head, stomach, ankle, leg, hip, and ear; survived two plane crashes; tunnelled out of a prisoner-of-war camp; and tore off his own fingers when a doctor refused to amputate them. Describing his experiences in the First World War, he wrote, "Frankly I had enjoyed the war.

Can't really be done because the "fall" was more of a gradual dissolution. People could be living under a state of affairs where Rome had no power over them for many decades while still being under the impression nothing had really changed.

Possibly the best option would be to make the movie about organizing the response to Atilla the Hun. Explore how the empire is slowing down and ceasing to function in how hard it is to pull an army together. Have the Battle of the Catalunian Plains as the climax but frame it as a Pyrrhic victory that highlights how weakened and ultimately doomed the empire is in the near future. Then you have a central story but you don't need to try and find a specific moment where the fall happened.
