This video goes through the Stone Age, Bronze Age, and Iron Ages and beyond! It starts off with the Paleolithic and Neolithic, and shifts into the beginning of civilization in the Ancient Middle East. The main focuses are on Ancient Mesopotamia, Ancient Egypt, the Hittites, Phoenicians, and Hebrews, and the great empires that emerged from the Bronze Age Collapse, the Neo-Assyrian Empire, the Neo-Babylonian Empire, and the Persian Empire.

Welcome to The Ancient World series! This series is meant to summarize broad topics in history and balances political history and events, with social/daily life, and culture. If you've watched our History of the World documentary, this series is a perfect next step. The videos are standalone, but presented in a chronological fashion. The series will be divided into 5 videos about the Ancient Period, which we call Phase 1. Upcoming videos in the current Phase will be placed at the end of these videos. Once these 5 videos are completed, we will move onto Phase 2, but this project will be considered completed, and compiled into ONE video containing all 5 parts.
