The Mysterious Late Bronze Age Collapse: Empires Fell Together!

Описание: Explore the dramatic, near-simultaneous collapse of powerful Bronze Age kingdoms around c.1200 BC, when the Hittite empire, Mycenaean palaces, the Late Bronze Age Levant, and Egypt’s New Kingdom all unravelled within a few decades. This video walks through the leading explanation, showing how climate stress, failing long distance trade networks, mass migrations and social unrest combined to topple complex societies, leaving ruined palaces, broken trade routes, and a world that had to rebuild from the ashes.
We examine the palaeoclimate evidence that points to drought and crop failure, how maritime and overland trade disruptions amplified shortages, the role of violent incursions often labelled the Sea Peoples, and why institutional collapse can cascade so fast once central systems break. Along the way we look at archaeological markers, written records, economic shock effects, and the big unanswered questions that keep historians debating today.
