🚩 Battle of Halidon Hill (1333) played a big part in the development of English military tactics. Edward III would later use the same defensive setup to confound the mounted chivalry of France at the Battles of Crécy and Poitiers. This was Edward III's first battle and the only one that he fought in England. At Halidon Hill he witnessed the strength of the defensive combination of archers and dismounted men-at-arms already used to great effect by Edward Balliol the previous year at the Battle of Dupplin Moor in Scotland.

Love your content! This was an amazing video🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
so i take it you are not going to finish HANNIBAL??? people have been asking and nothing from you guys.
is it possible you guys do the battle of Zama instead of these pointless videos, I'm sure you get much more views
The Earl of Ross was courageous while the Scottish Calvary can be seen as traitors because they took to the field but left before the fighting was over.
@thugdaddy007 I am part Scottish and related directly to Argyle Wallace (William Wallace's uncle). I enjoyed this video even if the Scots lost. FYI Wallace died out in my family 3 generations ago replaced by Abbott due to my great grand mother having no brothers to bare the name.
My comment as a sacrifice for the algorithm but in reality is because I love this channel.
Like farmer
Yea, this brother's alright. He's a genuine bro.
I found this channel due to my addiction to total war games recently. Not gonna lie made me buy a history book too XD Love this channel.
I've played total war since 1998 lol
Best one is Medieval Total War
@@jimjones1130 Oh definitely by a long shot.
Same mate. I recently found out you can buy some of the total war games on your phone if you want to play on the go
@@jimjones1130the original? The second one you mean surely?
As I understand it, the reason Edward was expected to bend the knee to King Phillipe of France wasn't that England was part of the French sphere of authority but rather Edwards lands in France were. And not going to pay homage to Phillipe could have resulted in those lands being forfeit.
William the Conqueror and every English King through Henry VIII held French lands as vassals of the French King, William being Duke of Normandy, Count of Anjou and Maine and some others. Henry II added Aquitaine and Brittany through conquest and marriage. England was William's and his descendants by conquest and through the supposed behest of Edward the Confessor. The English kings until Edward I simply tried to avoid going to France and bending the knee for their French possessions, or like Henry II, ignore the French King since Henry II held more of "France" than the French King until his sons gave them away or lost them. From Edward I through Henry V, the Angevin/Plantagenet dynasts claimed the crown of France through a female relation, and an English King held as much or more land in France than the French King and Henry V actually was crowned as king before his death. Henry VI inherited the insanity of the Valois, the resurgence of the French and the Hundred Years War saw the end of English possessions in France.
Aquitaine, indeed.
The lands were seized by the kings of France (first Philippe IV in 1296 and his son Charles IV in 1324) due to a failure in feudal duties (precisely the lack of homage).
By 1360, Edward III will force the French to give him full sovereignty over the Duchy, along with several other possessions. This state lasted for a little under a century. By 1451, it was fully back into French hands and would remain so to this day.
How Scotland survived the second war of independence after such major defeats is remarkable
Agreed. A very resilient people.
@@Steven-jn2cwakin to how the American Continentals during the early parts of the Revolution lost more against England until they found a way to beat them from both Daniel Morgan & Friedrich Wilhelm von Steuben's stewardship.
Day 2 of asking HistoryMarche to finish 2nd Punic war series

I wish historymarche do some crusades i really like those series 😭😭😭
For Ball Hammon !
@@mohdnorhakiminothman9971 didn't they finished the crusades?
@@pajserlatacchini9400 *baal
One of the many examples in history where the number of soldiers didn’t matter, even though they had a larger army the Scottish still lost in the end
When I was looking into my family name (I am Scottish) I discovered many of my ancestors were killed in this particular battle.
are there also a load of from from flodden?
Good long distance runners were they ?
Edward got a real-life red-hot poker ending of his own personal plotline that usually only happens in shows like early Game of Thrones.
??
@@bevan2342 1:08 Read the legend on the lower left, bro.
This form of execution was done in order to disguise the assassination and appear Edward II death as of natural causes.
@@bevan2342Edward the Second was overthrown and imprisoned by his wife and her lover. He died mysteriously while in captivity. The rumor at the time was that he was killed by having a red hot pocker shoved up his anus. However, this is not proven.
Wring Edward. That was Edward the Second.
Another amazing video! Thanks HM.
God bless you Historymarche for giving us great content on Saturday while taking care of your sick father 🙏 may he get well
Just got back from my run and history march makes a new video.
Its historymarche time!
Tremendous battle. Cheers to the algorithm and quality history! 🍻
Love your content history marche! You're the Best 😊😊😊😊
For those who haven't heard this story before, it may seem jarring and out of character for the famously honorable Edward III to arrest and kill Mortimer out of nowhere, his mother boyfriend and one that didn't seem to do anything to Edward. It only seems out of nowhere, Mortimer definitely deserved his end (and not for having killed Edward IIIs father like some documentaries make it sound like). The young Edward was a true puppet and virtual prisoner of Mortimer, who had his movements heavily restricted and was surrounded by Mortimer's spies. Mortimer's vanity and ambition grew to the point that he was even taking precedence over Edward at public events. The two final straws broke when Edward III's son was born and then quickly after rumors that Edwards mother Isabella was pregnant. There was now a real danger that Edward III would either be killed (secretly assassinated) in favor of his own son becoming Mortimer new puppet king he could use to rule for another 18 years or that he would be deposed like his father had been and killed in favor of Mortimer's own (potential) son with Isabella.
On the night of Edwards coup he was staying in Nottingham with his mother. While there Edwards supporters were barred from Nottingham castle and the castle guards were ordered not to obey Edwards commands (Mortimer was inside the castle, Edward and Isabella were staying elsewhere in the city). The kings supporters left the city in a very public huff but then secretly re-entered the city later that night. Edward and his friends then moved against Mortimer, entering the castle via a secret entrance in the castle using a key obtained from his mother. Mortimer was caught completely off guard and arrested.
Cool, thanks for the info.
HistoryMarche FTW!
A little tip but also count as a sacrifice comment.
Great video as always.
Great video, like always, but please, continue in Hannibal serie!
The She Wolf of France is one woman I would fear! I mean...eating your dinner while watching someone being hanged and quartered...
Fun fact: Scotch tape was invented during this conflict. It was used to tape the eyes of sentries open at night. As Willy Wallace once said: *_ADHESIVE!_*
I swear any time the army attacks up hill it ends in disaster
battle of bosworth?
@@geesehoward700 I meant more the scottish army, see flodden and culloden as other examples
(Yes the jacobites aren't purely scots but I'm counting them in this case)
I just love how Scotland is depicted free of the english in this map
Always pumping out bangers
Another wonderful historical coverage episode was shared by an amazing ( History Marche) channel. Episode about a part of British thrones of Edward III ( 1309 AD forward)History and its clashed with several Scottish rebellious lords... Edward III gained his English throne solidified through battles victory ✌️ Halidon Hil over Scottish defeated army ( in 1333 AD) thanks for sharing
Thanks, good video
Nothing like Medieval history to start the weekend 😎
My dad lost ancestors in this battle. He was a Menteith by way of Schultz to Rathbone.
I know the English long bowman from MIDEAVEL II and they are so effective 😅
God, Balliol line was such a cursed one.
thank you!
Thanks For this! Edward III was a legend😊😊😊❤❤❤
And a child killer....I wouldn't say he should be viewed in a good light for that. Murder is Murder we don't praise murderers.
@@Fliegerabwehrkanone-re1ty What children did he kill?
@@AyEhm-ii2dpberwick siege he hanged a 3yr old kid it's mentioned in this episode. He was a disgusting pig
@@Fliegerabwehrkanone-re1ty He deserves respect why watch History if you are going to cry about it's brutality?
@@JstBrahd so hitler killing jews is just history's brutality too?? No difference....murder is murder....and im a huge history fan.
I see a common thread in these battles.
A lack of patience seems to be the undoing of most militaries of the sword and spear era wars.
I know they were trying to save a town in this case, but leaving the marsh into an arrow filled killing field was a pretty dumb move.
A Hannibal like move to send a force in initially and retreat to the marsh, spurring an advance from the young King, would've allowed for an ambush to be set where the long bowmen would have been useless.
outstanding
Thanks
I sometimes refer to King Edward II as "King Hot-Poker-Butt" due to his alleged fate...
you are the greatest youtbuer of alltime
The map labels as 'Arbroath' what I think should be 'St Andrews' in Fife (e.g. at 14:09).
A dark day indeed 🏴💔
Thank you for doing more Scotland even though it showcases our stupidity!
Ah Edward III one of the longest reigning for the era and greatest kings England had.
Good video
Your videos are always very clear and easy to understand. Thanks for that!🌸🌸 0 🥩!
I’ve always found Berwick a fascinating place.
They look Scottish. They sound Scottish. But usually identify as English
Day 1 of asking history marche to finish the 2nd punic wars series
Sacrifice to the algorithm⚔
Sacrifice for the algorithm, and for England!
I guess next time the scots call for no prisoners they better make sure they win.
I think this guy is purposely not finishing Hannibal to keep using our excitement for it to hook us into watching his other videos. I'm done watching this channel until he another Hannibal video is released
Sacrifice for the algorithm! Hearth please ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Muito bom
4:08 the english requested the battle to be on more even ground.
was that a joke?
They did something similar with the American revolutionaries. Their request was politely declined then too.
Quite common in chivalric period to negotiate battles (even at Flodden in 1540 where King James IV would not commence battle until the English army had manoeuvred into position)
@@jasonaris5316
would sun tzu approve?
:)
@@jasonaris5316 would sun tzu approve?

13 is my lucky number...
Why didn't they try and flank with the superior numbers?
FOR THE ALGORITHM 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I don't understand why the English agreed to a truce so the people of Berwick could put out the fires! 17:25
It was literally caused by the towns people where trying to set the English boats alight, and the English where destroying the town with missiles... two good reasons to just demand Berwick surrender or burn!!🤔
The map of Scotland has Arbroath in the wrong position. It belongs on the North coast of the river Tay estuary, rather than in Fife on the south side, in the vicinity of St Andrews.
nice
h & m is back
cool
A sacrifice to the Algorithm
finally 😭
"No prisoners? Mind if I do..."
my comment as a sacrifice to the algorithm...
Edward III = Ramsey Bolton
Hi
Its pronounced Annan, like it is spelled on the map, not Anaan
Comment for the algorithm
Sacrifice for the algo!
If Scotland instead looked for an Alliance and merging with England and Wales to then jointly invade France they would have done so with ease. Fighting and looting in Northern England was moronic and pointless when France was so much more wealthy.
Oh dear the narrator strikes again. You would think a Scot would know that Moray is pronounced Murray and that Seton is See-ton not set-on.
Good video otherwise about a battle a lot of people are unaware
I love these because I guess my family is related to black dugles
Yoooooo wassup
😎😎😎
Szczęście frajera.
When will we get another ottoman video???
Comment
Any battles in Asia??
Hollywood should make a film where the USA come and "save" the the English from the evil Scottish!?
Yeah the people defending their sovereignty and freedom are the bad guys 😂. English are determined to be both superior and victims all at the same time.
So they travel back in time?
...why?
Edward the third is probably the greatest English king.
May this comment be a sacrifice to the Algorithm.
Blah blah blah Bruce blah blah blah
Third viwer
"Recently I watched a popular Spanish action show". Really I live in Spain and the TV is shite. I have no idea what a "popular Spanish action show" is - there was Los Hombres de Paco about 15 years ago. Its all Reggaetón, football, naked influencers - shite. There are no action shows. Nobody in there right mind watches Spanish TV. What are you talking about ? Maybe I should come to your country and make stuff up? "Recently I have been watching a popular Lithuanian series about the persecution of the Jews under the Nazis and how we enjoyed it.".
Where you been?
