I love to hear suggestions and requests from my subscribers.

If there's any civilization large and small that you'd like to see in an episode of Fall of Civilizations, post them here!

Thanks Richard, I'll have a think about how I could approach these!

wow some of the above suggestions already have episodes! My suggestions: - Persia - Ancient Hebrews - Portuguese empire (or another colonial power)

Richard Penman

Thanks Vincent, I really appreciate the kind words! These are great suggestions. Definitely want to do Phoenician & Pueblo culture. I'll take a look at the others too!

New to the pod! Happy to support. A few civs/cultures that come to mind: Norte Chico Phoenicia Ancestral Puebloans Dacians Not sure if this counts but the collapse of Yugoslavia is very interesting and not as well known by laypeople (at least in my experience). Keep up the good work!

Vincent

That's a great suggestion. I'd love to do the Ottomans at some point. I think it's fascinating how differently the AHE and OE were treated. One as a defeated equal, the other as a colonial possession.

The suggestion posted above about the Austro-Hungarian empire made me thing of another member of the WW I Central Powers- the Ottoman Empire. Or maybe something about WW I and how it was essentially the end of both Austro Hungary and the Ottoman Empire?

Carrie H

Yes that's a great idea! I've been wanting to do this for some time. Thanks for the suggestion!

I'm a little late to the suggestion party, but I'd love to see a civilization on the African continent (besides the North) covered. Maybe The Great Zimbabwe or the Songhai Empire?

Stephanie Phillips

Yeah I'll have to have a think about this one! It's a good suggestion.

I know I mentioned it on twitter, but I still think the Greco-Bactrians/ Indo-Greeks would be brilliant.

Callum Orr

That's a great suggestion! I'll have to take a look into this.

How about old merchant empires such as the Republic of Venice or the Hanseatic League?

Ferdi

These are great suggestions, thanks for the tips!

I seem the mongols has already been suggested but what about one of the successor kingdoms like the Crimean horde or the the Golden Horde it’s predecessor. The collapse of the mongol empire is kind of known but it did have successors and they were kind of the terminus for the power of the steppe tribes. Like there’s loads of them from avars to bulgars to huns and then suddenly they stop being an issue for settled people.

Padraig O'Rourke

That's a great idea! Really want to do this at some point.

Indus Valley

David Clegg

These are all really great suggestions! I hadn't thought of Austria-Hungary, and I'd like to do a more modern one at some point. Thanks!

Three suggestions: 1. Carthage 2. Sasanian Persia and 3. Austria-Hungary
