1000 years of medieval history in 15 minutes is madness!
But we clicked, didn’t we? So how mad are we, I ask you!
Medieval madnes, that is...🧐
It is just as meaningless as a 10 minute history of the Universe.
Exactly!🎉
Thats how they teach history in public schools 😂
I’m addicted to this channel. I love learning about the Middle Ages without romanticizing it.
Learning about real history without the influence of pop culture is the best way to learn it!
Can we all just take a second to applaud Medieval Madness for not changing his videos to be full of AI generated images like so many other creators of this stuff do now. Its so much better knowing you are looking at real images that took time to research and know you're listening to a reap voice. So much of this stuff now on UA-cam is just full of lazy AI generated generic images of people with a generic AI voice and i don't know about you but i find that to be heavy uncanny valley when watching and it puts me off instantly. This is still so professional compared to all that stuff. Well done.
I could not have said it better!
1000 years abbreviated with great skill. Each short piece worthy of several episodes. Good job!
Just in from work and medieval madness to watch. Fantastic. Thanks for your hard work
I ALWAYS want more from your channel. I fall asleep to you every night. This time line is amazing, but I do hope you elaborate more on all these stories
what an excellent summary, this would make a great syllabus. thank you.
This is handy! As someone with a hobbyist’s interest, it’s helpful to have an efficient reference like this. Thanks!
Loved this so much! This is by far my favourite history channel on UA-cam
Thank You. Very entertaining educational refreshing refresher !!
Be cool to see each chapter get it's own 15 minutes of madness
I strongly recommend Schwerpunkt's summary on the XX amount of dates to learn by heart to necessarily but not satisfactorily know the Middle Ages
Great show! The new format was very innovative and fun to watch.
This was actually a really awesome video. I could appreciate you going more into detail on each topic, but for what it was, (and I think what it was going for..)- just a timeline to sort of put things in perspective, it was very good. Great way to contextualize these events we've learned about, and kind of all know happened around the "Middle Ages." But centuries are incredibly difficult for the human brain to put into context.
Excellent work
New style of video! I have always enjoyed your focus on a particular subject, but in no way do I think this installment is inferior. Great, concise overview! Cheers 🎉
Loved this. So informative and interesting, just brilliant. Thank you 🫶
I love this channel. I just subscribed. I start looking for the new videos on Thursday and am always pleased when I see I new one posted. I have learned a lot from watching the videos. Cheers!
Going into my "Saved" videos pile on UA-cam, and I will transcribe it shortly. It is just so handy and complete a reference to keep nearby when reading historical books to be able to place events in their right place. I'd love to see one which places great works of art into their right historical place, in addition to musical artists -- that would be massively interesting and handy as well. Thanks again -- been a fan from the start, and suspect I will be here until the bitter end of all the madness!
Such an excellent episode! A few comments are negative, not seeing it for what it is. It was so informative as an overview and I’ll be re-watching. Thanks from a long-time subscriber!
Awesome video!
I really enjoyed this episode. It's rare to find anyone who includes global civilizations external to Europe in medieval history. I am curious to know how you feel about 'Pope Joan.' I know that *common* historical texts exclude her as a possibility, but there are too many oddities in the papal authentication practices to totally exclude it.
Fabulous❤❤❤❤
Took notes. 😊
Best episode by far
Great stuff
Excellent!!!
FACT CORRECTION: King Athelstan was the first king of all the English, Alfred the Great's grandson, and son of Edward the Elder.
I love this kind of video
Nice. Liked and shared.
I keep changing my mind about this channel. I enjoy some of the videos, the humor, visuals, snippets of medieval history... and then they will put out something completely off like this one and I just don't understand what they were thinking. There's no way that you can do a video called "complete history of the middle ages in 15 minutes" and have it be right in any way. I hope that I don't need to explain why because I would be here all day pointing out errors and problems. Please, stick to what you do well!
The Mongols actually only had the largest connected empire, the Magna Carta actually was annulled soon after. The Habsburg family only became highly relevant from the mid-15th century. Worth mentioning also about the slave trade that about an estimated 90% of these slaves were bought from African kings. No mal intend. Good video.
This was great. Only one I’m surprised you left out was 711 - When the Moors invaded Spain and 732 - Battle of Portiers.
He also left out the Battle of Manzikert of 1071 in which the ERE were defeated, The Navas de Tolosa of 1212, 1204 Sack of Constantinople during the 4th Crusade, The Great Schism of 1054, etc. Otherwise great video.
Yes, I did enjoyed it a lot 👍
From Guam, USA 🇺🇸
I really enjoyed this. I did find myself wanting to stop the narrative and click on a link for more information about the current event and what happened next; for example, the Black Death lead to the end of feudalism (not enough workers left to support the feudal system).
Don't get me wrong, I'm thoroughly enjoying this, and want more!
Schwerpunkt is a real history channel who has hundreds of hours of quality content for anyone who wishes to really learn something about all kinds of different facets of the past. I strongly recommend him to anyone who seeks any meaningful knowledge about the medieval period.
What a significant part of human history.
The first modern western novel was written by Stendahl: "Scarlet and Black". published in 1830
It is also the best novel ever written...
If you find any English translations titled "Red and Black" they are second rate translations.
The standard English translation of Stendhal's classic has long been that of Margaret Shaw (1953),
still available in the Penguin Classics edition. And it's still the best, by far.
I highly recommend it... You can find used copies of it on the internet.
"... and many historians consider this as the end of the medieval period. But not me."
I think that the battle of Aljubarrota should’ve been mentioned, it’s a very important battle of the medieval ages and allows the exploration age to be what it was with Spain and Portugal
1000 years of awful 😢
Dig the music
You left out the Plague of Justinian, but this was meant to be brief.
How can someone contact you for partnership deal?
You know it’s Anglo-centric when Alfred the Great is mentioned but the conquest of Granada (and most of Spain) is completely ignored. Extra points for acknowledging the Aztecs, though.
I have been taught the medieval age started at the fall of Emperor Romulus Augustulus. The irony being Romulus was of the founders of the city of Rome.
I still find it bizarre when reminded just how recent the Aztec empire was. It always seemed something so ancient, but nope!
I always thought that too! They seem like an ancient group with their practices and pyramids, etc..
Ferdinand and Isabella were smart enough to get rid of the small hats but unfortunately we are not
The world is awakening now
Nepos was not the "last Roman emperor." He was just the last one based in the west. Justinian reunited most of the empire soon after. He was based in the east, but considered himself a Roman emperor, had the city of Rome under his rule, and Latin was his first language, so don't tell me he wasn't Roman emperor.
Huh? Why did you show the plague mask the doctors wore for the 1347 outbreak? Wasn’t the mask used in a later outbreak. This this one? 10:04
Jan Hus and the Hussites wars (1419 - 1434)
Avignon Papacy (1309-1377)
No one thought Muhammed was the last prophet except Islam, not being rude but the way it was said made it sound universal to all Abrahamic religions.
How the hell is a Japanese book from the 11th century the "first novel?" What about all the epic poems of Homer, Virgil, and Ovid? How are those not "novels?"
You give a nod to Muhammed, but don't mention the city of Baghdad in the gap between "The First Archbishop of Canterbury" and "The Era of the Vikings"!
Ah, the good old days! 🙄
Not a single smartphone on sight, just people living at the moment.
@@valentinkambushev4968 Yes, living in the moment with the plague. No smartphones or dentistry.
@@janerkenbrack3373 not to mention the evil, violent games that turn children into psychopaths. Children back then had real war to turn them into psychopaths.
@@valentinkambushev4968 Today we have to rely on the GOP and the Church to do that.
Didn't Rome fall like... in 476?
(besides this great video as alwas)
This is a dumb question but 1000 years from now what will they call the middle ages? They won't be the middle.
The dark ages.
Where religious nonsense ruled over logic and reason.
Sometimes you forget just how long ago the whole William Wallace thing was.
Cuba claims Columbus landed there.
Fact clarification. It is not fully known exactly where Columbus first landed. The Bahamas is a « best educated guess »
Unless you are setting this up for a new series , I am completely upset. How are you just going to leave us with “1021 the first novel” that’s bullshit. I want to hear more about this. Love you and love you content 🤗
Two periods of enlightenment and progress sandwiching a 1000 year period ruled by religion where not much happened to move our society forward. Yea, checks out.
Rome fell in 476 not 455
You forgot 1338 the Rolling stones played there first gig to entertain the troops in the hundred year war lol 😂
Cher was also on the card
If I could turn back time lol😂😂😂😂
We are just going to skip over 1088? Like it did not matter? Dude. You are better than this.
as this is eurocentric, should have include 711, islam enter europe and battle of tours
There’s a few things missing
The Fall of Rome, the Divine Comedy, the Sack of Constantinople in 1204
you could always make your own
make your own @@seanslawson98
1:07 and as a result the world went to shit and hasn’t recovered 😂
Only true peasants remember the plague
One thousand years of darkness (at least in Europe). It sounds like something out of a fantasy novel, but it had already happened, and it was awful.
The "darkness" angle has generally been shown to be exaggeration.
what about the darkness we're facing nowadays?
Each generation stands on the shoulders of those who came before it. Where would we be without the Priming Press for example?
@baarbacoa The dark ages was real.
A certain type of 'historian' tries to rewrite history, that's all
😆@@MrAuskiwi101
Why is one country's history more important than other's. UK and France has 11 most important medieval events, according to this channel, rest of the world - 22, whole Eastern Europe has 0. That is very ignorant.
it's a short video. the narrator is English. maybe go find an alternative, Eastern European video, from an Eastern European perspective. or make one yourself.
Very poor content
Extremely English oriented
And Aztecs? Really?
Shame
😆 make your own. the narrator is English, and IT IS A SHORT VIDEO.
@@sarahlouise7163 Sure, but definitely he shouldn't call it "the complete timleline".
Subjective timeline or English perspective would be fair.
This video is about nothing and for someone who is into history is completely dull and ignorant.
Just a clickbait made for money.
