Himyarite kingdom, Najran Massacre + annexation of Himyar by Aksumites (Byzantium)

[SultanuuFicaan]

Eventually the Aksumites would be kicked out from Yemen, their original homeland by the Sassanids in a couple of decades later. To which they were too defeated by the Arabs a couple of decades later and the mighty persians have yet to recover till this day.

- Persian- Abyssinian wars

- Khosrow I kicked out the Habesha
Surat al fil describes the pathetic attempt by an abysinnian subject who seeked to destroy the ka'aba

Total war atilla lets you play as the 4 aforementioned factions (Himyar, Aksum, Byzantium/eastern roman empire and Sassanians).



@Canuck here are some interesting videos the channel has made on other ancient kingdoms/civilizations.

I've seen all his videos, it explains it in great detail but I must admit I was shocked when he was talking about the language. Why did himyar evolve so closely to Arabic that at the time of the prophet, they were able to understand most of it, yet across the red sea, ge'ez changed dramatically?

Good post by the way @SultanuuFicaan
