Roman Mythology Animated

Although not quite as popular as Greek mythology, Roman mythology is still very important in today's society. This video gives a well detailed and early understandable overview of Roman mythology. The video highlights the difference between Roman and Greek mythology. It compares which gods were adapted from Greek mythology as well as explanations of the similarities and differences between them. The video also explains how the emergence of Roman mythology coincided with and influenced the founding of the Roman Empire.
The videos animation makes it interesting for many audiences. While the animation is entertaining, it isn't distracting from the educational prospect of the video. It highlights the story being told to help the viewer understand the content. The animation is done very well and is consistent throughout the video. It is whimsical, but in a way that keeps the viewer interested.
The author of the video makes a series of educational videos about history. He has been posting animated videos on YouTube for 2 years and has about 245,000 subscribers. The video itself is almost 8 minutes long but packs in almost the complete history of Roman mythology. The video has been viewed 311,000 views and has received 661 comments. It has been liked 6,900 times and disliked 151 times. The author has made many videos over the past 2 years. I would recommend seeing some of his other work. His videos are both educational and entertaining.
