Truly a great compendium of events on the third crusade. prince john the worst is a sad turning point in the English chapter, but The Bank that creates beasts of men is of much older origin.
I agree , dates can always be looked up when in writing a paper or during a panel of debate or topic of intrest tha may include dates for a specific time of important event and supports the argument ,( case ) .
I seriously couldn't stop watching this. So engaging! The visual and oral teaching with the consistent reminder of dates was really absorbing. I fully comprehend the events of the 3rd Crusade.
He is already acknowledged a great tactical commander,but his lack of a motivational motive was the main problem, crushing strong sentiments of his men,who only came for the holy land not side quests rumorued to be attacking Egypt or northern regions
Of course he should but at the same time that’s not saying much. The Dark Ages in Europe was a period characterized by profound ignorance. That includes military strategy/tactics. There were a lot of brave men and there were a lot of stupid men.
@@doedelzak3914 whatever man. Europe went backwards after the fall of the Roman Empire, burned books, there was only one book that mattered: the Bible. No scientific or technological advancements for 1000 years until the Rennaisance. You can see the utter lack of sophistication reflected in their military tactics when they fight outsiders. The knights were awesome fighters individually because they trained that way, for tournaments and whatnot. They had zero ability to fight together, as a unit. Battle of Legnica, Battle of Mohi River, Battle of Nicopolis. They were clueless as to how to achieve success as a cohesive army. Or how about the First Crusade (the People's Crusade)? Nearly 100% eliminated by the Seljuk Turks.
Dunno if you'll see this comment, but I really love your 1+ hour videos of entire campaigns, and seeing the outcomes of entire factions, instead of the ones in a single battle. I really hope that, despite how much time and energy it takes to make long videos like these, you will continue to put together long videos like these, whether making series of your existing videos, or brand new ones. Thank you for making this video... I really enjoyed it.
When Christians were Christians. Strong and fought for their belief in God and The Holy Land. As a Muslim I respect that. These were formidable opponents.

He was a great warrior but arrogant. It cost him his liberty and bankrupted England all because he was ungracious to those who helped him win his battles. On his return he was kidnapped and held for ransom. Sounds a bit like today.
Ya I agree, no other leader came to help Saladin but he did receive reinforcements. Like the time his army retreated and he raced ahead the get food and supplies ready for them, shows the type of guy he was. Richard had funds granted. But to travel so far in the time that it was and to put up a solid fight was impressive. Both had respect for each other. So sad that the holy land is still being fought over.
Pfft, holy land...no land or people are holy. It's been proven in the past, present and it will be in the future. The only thing they all have in common it's murderous intents, and made up god to excuse them.
@@IntroducingMrLuccistop lying. There were no slave forces and they definitely werent responsible the victory. You can cry like a baby all you want, salahuddin won the holy land back. Be grateful he gave u science and maths or you would be still using roman numbers and rubbing salt on peoples brains as treatement.
What a formidable leader!Indomitable, courageous, passionate, yet planner, realistic and rational. Able to talk to the elite as well as to the soldiers. The lion heart representes the archetype of the medieval King
Guys, I want to see the scale measure on the maps, when they zoom in or zoom out. It would be great to see the size and distances. If you agree with this, please thumbs up. Perhaps History Marche group will notice!

Or not do it, and potentially risk anyone getting upset and bitching. Which while you would assume that that wouldn't be a thing, you clearly haven't been online that much and don't know that it doesn't matter how pathetic or petty they are, they will b!tch whine and moan and act like they're special and they are important and deserve not only to be heard (kind of like yourself in this situation if you.

Tch move and act like if you get enough likes its something that more or less should be done. The world is already dealing with THOSE type of Karen ass momos, we don't need another one growing up to be even worse
Man, the way I learned about Richard in school and movies I thought he was just a drunk loser who got captured one time. Turns out like most things in life , the truth is much more fascinating and inspiring.
Amazing. This channel is doing some amazing work. That was as good as watching a movie and I'm super glad to finally understand the greatness of Richard lionheart on field.
Any place of learning teaching the history of crusades should make watching your videos a requirement. Excellent job guys. Really. Top to bottom A-Z you guys knocked it out of the park with your seires.
That it was a response to 800 years of muslim aggression because they were going into Europe despite not reacting until European elites decided it was enough and the conquista began, as well as the first crusade. Good to note a lot of modern day middle east was Chirstian until ofc muslims declared Jihad and burned all churches and killed christians@@greg9088
As always, an excellent long-form video. Just as with each of the parts, the content is superb, striking a perfect balance between entertainment and straightforward information. Thank you for all of your hard work! Armchair historians like myself much appreciate the ability to get solid refreshers on topics we've not studied for a time, or to get primed for our own deep dives into the annals of military history.
It was an informative and wonderful historical coverage episode about 3rd Crusaders. Shared by an amazing ( History Marche) channel....thank you for sharing
Easy to be tough when you extort an entire country's wealth to pay for endless supplies and mercenaries to fight pointless wars where you quit at the end because you're scared it might cost you something. He's a coward for this and should be decried as a failed Crusader.
Hey my brother I must say I truly enjoy your history research narrative and expository telling. The fact that you pronounce place names correctly as they were called in that time period shows the depth and accuracy of research you bring to your program and each individual episode. I especially appreciate your understanding of the relationship between Richard and Saladin. Given my understanding of human nature I would venture to say they both the respected and appreciated each other more than they did their backstabbing half-stepping countrymen and so-called allies. Yeah both of them were betrayed by their so-called allies, Richard by French allis and Saladin by his Emirs . I do believe both of those leaders were men of God following their God the god of their understanding to the best of their ability with honor and chivalry. I salute your effort as a historian and truly appreciate what I see plainly and clearly as your labor of love. Bon vie Mon ami 😊
By the "Capetian King", the Plantagenêt were technically French too (or Frankish to be exact), the concept of nationality did not exist back then. A huge part of Richard's army was from Duchies and Counties in France too. And Phillip II left 10 000 men under the orders of Guy III of Burgundy.
Korean here. My two most favourite characters from the Holy Crusade, Richard the Lionheart and Saladin Ayubi. Mad respect to these two Kings and Mighty Warriors. What true Legends!
First time I’ve come across this channel. Left a comment & 👍 as a sacrifice to the algorithm. I 0:10 listened to the whole episode in 1 go while cooking & tinkering, the time flew by because Inwas immersed in the narrative.
Thank you for bringing and dishing history at its best... Looking for ways to support this venture. Majorly this characterized determination, resilience, faith and honour among oppositions
While the Europeans and Arabs were fighting useless Holy Wars, nothing prepared them for the greatest testament of them all…the Mighty Mongol invasion. “I am the punishment of god. If you have not committed sin, god would have not sent a punishment like me upon you!”- Genghis Khan
great work guys, as a history junky - hats off, as a graphic designer - the most beautiful info graphic ever, as a non native English speaker - you have the best narrator ever - cheers :)
The world still has heroes and not wimps unfortunately none of them are are our leaders anymore. Je vise et la proliteriat et no le bourgeoisie pour types l'epoque. I do apologize for my errors as I learn the French language and attempt to utilize it. I do like your perspective and appreciate your comments😊

LOVED the documentary man! You're as amazing as ever! And please continúe your reconquista videos with the likes of James I the Conqueror and Ferndinand III the Saint!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Baha' al-Din, a contemporary Muslim soldier and biographer of Saladin, recorded a tribute to Richard's martial prowess at this battle: "I have been assured ... that on that day the king of England, lance in hand, rode along the whole length of our army from right to left, and not one of our soldiers left the ranks to attack him. The Sultan was wroth thereat and left the battlefield in anger
you know its Impossible to find out any single name of any weapons master that trained Richerd. ALL accounts say that his skill was remarkable....so who taught him???
The ONLY bad thing about these videos is that they eventually end. Fantastic, entertaining, and historically accurate - trust me. I was there (as a nurse by day and wench by night)
What happened to the countless Christians during the takeover of the Mediterranean coasts by Saracens? Were they all spared and given a gift of land? Wonderful merciful Saracens.
HistoryMarche, there are more two parts battles to combine on video to make such as: Battle of the three kings, 1578 AD First Battle of Tarain, 1191 AD ⚔ The First Islamic Conquest of India and Second Battle of Tarain, 1192 AD ⚔ Muhammad of Ghor Returns. Battle of Targoviste, 1462 AD Battle of Cynoscephalae, 197 BC Alfred The Great Battle of Ashdown and Edington. I hope you can voice and narrate the battle of Targoviste that would be awesome to see your next video. And I hope you narrate the first part of How did Rome Conquer Italy? the Battle of Cynoschephalae, 197 BC by Knowledgia when you combine the second part of the video.
Thanks for this long chapter; dividing those chapters on battles doesn't allow us to understand the complex situation of the conflict and the politics.
I visited the castle at Acre two years ago, I was walking around there thinking at the enormity of the task of taking a fortied city like that… the walls are like 20 metres high surrounded by a trench and another wall, its insane to think men on wooden ladders had to scale that while being attacked from above… those men were tough. Wish I could share the photos I took here 😢
A really exciting narrative. I realise how strange our vision of nationalities for these characters is . "King of France" : "France" is only a region around Paris; this part speaks french....but the rest speaks provencals, flemish (Belgians or netherland ?) , Lorrain (oh ! maybe they are german !). Richard king of England...but his mother and his father were fren....oh no ! they spoke occitan. He had probably a high number of occiitans than Brittish in his army as he ruled over twice more "french" than "english". Guy de Lusignan speaks french, i believ but he is the former king of ...Jerusalem. The only thing that counts is the title, the higher they had and it is not representative of todays geogrphy. Ah never forget that all these guys are rivals .
....or England is a part of the Plantagenet possessions. They come from Anjou and Aquitaine and were dukes and counts there before reigning over England. Henri II is born in Fance (Le Mans) Alienor grew at Bordeaux and is buried at Fontevrault, Richard is born at Oxford, but he died in France and is buried at Fontevraut too. Did they speak english ? Just bribes. England, France has no sense at this period . I know history.
Richard did not loose a single battle against Salah-Al-Din, recaptured the entire coastline and its trading cities, and had probably easily taken Jerusalem back as well if only he would've had a united front. The Muslims were bankrupt on morale from having their army almost destroyed against the Crusaders as well as Saladin failing to recapture Jaffa, so they might well have surrendered the city had a united crusader army reached its gates. The third crusade may not have achieved its main objective of taking the Holy City, but in terms of battles won and gains made, it was a success and victory. Many chastise Richard for a ruler who put England in poverty with his wars, ignoring his monumental contributions for Christendom, as well as the fact that he was shown to be a capable manager from a young age, controlling the rebellious factions of his Angevin holdings in France. He was coming home to sort out affairs in Britain, but it was hardly his fault that was captured and died before reaching England. Had he managed the journey, he could've well stabilized the realm and maybe prevented the First Baron's War in revolt against his brother.
For being captured, it was Richard's fault to made a feud with the germans in his journey to the holy land and he reached England in 1194 while dying in 1199. Unfortunately for him, he was more a general than a ruler and know how to win battles but not how to end wars.
@@robert-surcouf To my knowledge it was a mutual feud and not just Richard being a jerk for no reason. And so not I can't agree that being imprisoned by supposed allies in crusade was his fault. As I said, we do not know what would've happened had he made his way back to England unhindered. By indications of his early life in Normandy he did possess some administrative skill. So to just say he was worthless as a king is without merit in my book.
@@alexanderb5726 For the mutual feud, yes and no. Leopold had put his flag alongside Richard's and Philippe's flag at Acre as the HRE biggest noble even if he wasn't a king and Richard's men threw the flag down. It seems also but it's not proven that Richard publicly insulted Leopold. After the feud, Leopold quit the crusade and Philippe made the same not so long after for different reasons. Richard was indeed imprisoned by fellow crusaders but the crusade was already over and it was in HRE lands, not holy land. If Richard had come back sooner, it will be likely that Philippe and John scheming will not be so damaging but the revolt will hapenned for all of Richard's life whatsoever. In his early life, Richard didn't manage Normandy but the county of Poitiers since 1170 then the duchy of Aquitaine in 1172 because Henry the younger was supposed to inherit their father's land as the first born and Richard will inherit their mother's land as the second born (Henry 2 was only duke consort of Aquitaine as Aquitaine will not stayed with the angevin empire after Henry's death but Henry's the younger death changed everything)
@@robert-surcouf I'm aware of the flag incident but we don't know the context. Could be that Leopold claimed the city as if it was all his own doing which Richard's men then understandably took issue with. We don't know. I also know of when and where he was imprisoned but over or not, they were allies just returned from conquering in the Holy Land. To imprison a king over a something which from what we know seems to add up to a simple squabble is highly uncalled for. It could just as well have been done out of jealousy by Leopold at Richard's momentous success on his own in the Third Crusade. "If Richard had come back sooner, it will be likely that Philippe and John scheming will not be so damaging but the revolt will hapenned for all of Richard's life whatsoever." I think that is speculation. Richard was widely charismatic and a harsh ruler. To say the revolt was inevitable even if he was there is to underestimate the effect of strong kings. I still conclude that we do not know whether he would've performed well or poorly since he was never given the chance to return to England.
@@alexanderb5726 You're right that we don't know the context but the only facts accepted was that Leopold flag was threw and everything else is just assumption. They were allies in holy land but they don't returned at the same time and their alliance end when the crusade end. The reason for Leopold imprisonned Richard is likely petty and he will be punished by the pope but Leopold was smart enough to not keep Richard and give him to the emperor instead. When i talk about revolts, it's not only about those made by Philippe or John but by any noble whose vassal to Richard. The plantagenet empire at the late 12th century was diverse with england, part of Wales, Ireland and half of france and ruling it was hard, especially for someone like Richard who was more a general than a king and had never showned that he was politically brilliant but it's still assumptions.
S-Tier content as usual, but as I was listening from the other room, something hit my ear and gave me pause. The bit about King Philip landing at the siege of Acre on 4/20 1191 bringing 'vital supplies of grain and corn.' 18:54 Corn (as we now think of it) being a New World species would be totally unavailable for another 300 years, so I looked it up. Apparently, the English have been using the term 'corn' to refer to various foodstuffs such as oats, barley, and wheat for ages. Next time you see any medieval sources talking about corn in Europe, trip ye not citizen, for they're just talking about other grains/crops. TIL.
30:25 before dying, Frederick founded a Hospital Order, and sent a message to his brother, now Emperor Henry VI, to approve of this Order, in 1199 this Order would also be approved of the Pope and would be known as the Order of the Holy Mary, in other words the Teutonic Knights.
Historymash has again presented another epic long documentary in their usual excellent and intelligent fashion. I so much enjoy that I couldn't tell when the 1 hour+ video ended. Thank you historymash
As a Muslim, I have massive respect for leaders and general like Richard even though they were our adversaries. True definition of courage, strength, power and intellect, gained by faith. ALLAH HU AKBAR
As Muslim I greet your historical unbiased and I would say that even if Muslims did bad things after it is wars and history must be said without disturbing no matter
He still bias always making excuses for crusaders when it goes wrong blaming on tiredness lack of food which is a lies. Or them having issues in their camp but muslim also has issue with people in their camp but won't mention it.
they had been between 2 armies so the cannot scavenge like Saladin. ALso he mentioned lack of food in Acre. And "issue" u claim is mentioned on both sides. U r biased yourself and full of lies.@@pirateblackhawkdown9047
Let's just say when you said "THEN, the sight of the king's Lion standard flying from the outer wall's gave new hope!" I lost it.. Its like every time you say "THEN" I know something is going down.. Followed you since the start.. Ill follow you till the end. Just like they did Richard and Saladin. Thanks for this.

I say Sancho Martin was the key figure in the siege of tyre but thx for your comment
Imagine a king that swings a battle ax while leading his troops. Richard truly was a great commander and warrior
Yes, most guys today would struggle to swing a fairy wand
@@mikeoz4803and you wouldn’t?
@@that1ginger22 Wouldn't what?
He was a great warrior but arrogant.
It cost him his liberty and bankrupted England all because he was ungracious to those who helped him win his battles.
On his return he was kidnapped and held for ransom.
Sounds a bit like today.
@@jfryer485 there’s always some pisswilly who wants to downgrade a great man, all the while living a life of insignificance
History Marche channel is always introducing informative and incredible historical coverage episodes
Thanks for your hard work HM! love this third Crusade series!
Thanks man, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Ya I agree, no other leader came to help Saladin but he did receive reinforcements.
Like the time his army retreated and he raced ahead the get food and supplies ready for them, shows the type of guy he was.
Richard had funds granted. But to travel so far in the time that it was and to put up a solid fight was impressive.
Both had respect for each other.
So sad that the holy land is still being fought over.
Pfft, holy land...no land or people are holy. It's been proven in the past, present and it will be in the future. The only thing they all have in common it's murderous intents, and made up god to excuse them.
It will be until people get that it's omportened for multible religions
He received much help in reinforcements from Enslaved Saqaliba, Zanj, & Haratin forced into infantry slave corp. Mash'Allah
@@IntroducingMrLuccistop lying. There were no slave forces and they definitely werent responsible the victory. You can cry like a baby all you want, salahuddin won the holy land back. Be grateful he gave u science and maths or you would be still using roman numbers and rubbing salt on peoples brains as treatement.
Also Egypt. @@IntroducingMrLucci
What a formidable leader!Indomitable, courageous, passionate, yet planner, realistic and rational. Able to talk to the elite as well as to the soldiers. The lion heart representes the archetype of the medieval King
Guys, I want to see the scale measure on the maps, when they zoom in or zoom out. It would be great to see the size and distances.

That would only work if the maps and positioning was accurate which I doubt it would be.
Imagine being such a needy little beta you have to beg for likes in a petty attempt to more or less, and in a nicer way of making it sound, basically demand the creator to put in a fck ton more time, effort, and all the other things that NONE of us, especially needy betaCucks who make some pretty ridiculous "requests" (by basically strong arming dude to pretty much be put in a fcked up selfish as fck, needy little boys unnecessary "WaNt FoR sCaLeD mEaSuReMeNtS oN aLl MaPs ThAt NeEd To Be ScAlEd To SiZe EsPeCiAlLy WhEn ZoOmInG iN aNd OuT" you know, because Poindexter just has to have this because it would make such a huge difference and would do more than fck all seeing how youre not able to look at the damn screen and using your big brain along with some basic common sense to get a damn idea of exactly what YOU want because YOU aren't able to use a little bit of whatever is between them ears, along with maybe just a smidge of doing something yourself instead of trying to get as many likes as little Mrs selfish can get in the selfish hopes that the creator sees them (and if YOU had YOUR way, would be enough to not only notice, but to also be enough to place him in the position of either pleasing everyone who liked your petty comment and doing what you think would be so cool (again, good for you, but to do what you did is a pretty petty b!tch move and you'd think you would know better than to go about it the way you did, little kid) so basically make sure to please you because after all, you are the main character of course, not wanting to disappoint or make anyone upset. Or not do it, and potentially risk anyone getting upset and bitching. Which while you would assume that that wouldn't be a thing, you clearly haven't been online that much and don't know that it doesn't matter how pathetic or petty they are, they will b!tch whine and moan and act like they're special and they are important and deserve not only to be heard (kind of like yourself in this situation if you. Think about it🙄) but that what they think/feel, and what they say/want NEEDS to be the way of things or else.
Bottom line, don't pull such a selfish petty little b! Tch move and act like if you get enough likes its something that more or less should be done. The world is already dealing with THOSE type of Karen ass momos, we don't need another one growing up to be even worse
Man, the way I learned about Richard in school and movies I thought he was just a drunk loser who got captured one time. Turns out like most things in life , the truth is much more fascinating and inspiring.
Amazing. This channel is doing some amazing work. That was as good as watching a movie and I'm super glad to finally understand the greatness of Richard lionheart on field.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Salahuddin Al Ayubi was so respected that even his enemies praised and honored him. History was written for proof by the opponents themselves.
One of the best history channels out there. ❤
Any place of learning teaching the history of crusades should make watching your videos a requirement. Excellent job guys. Really. Top to bottom A-Z you guys knocked it out of the park with your seires.
I love the crusades, history is just so interesting
Crusades are a bloody affair. One should not admire them too much 🤔
What do you love about It?
@@greg9088it's interesting. What do u like about it
That it was a response to 800 years of muslim aggression because they were going into Europe despite not reacting until European elites decided it was enough and the conquista began, as well as the first crusade. Good to note a lot of modern day middle east was Chirstian until ofc muslims declared Jihad and burned all churches and killed christians@@greg9088
As always, an excellent long-form video. Just as with each of the parts, the content is superb, striking a perfect balance between entertainment and straightforward information. Thank you for all of your hard work! Armchair historians like myself much appreciate the ability to get solid refreshers on topics we've not studied for a time, or to get primed for our own deep dives into the annals of military history.
Yet another great Saturday video from history marche while i enjoy my coffee cheers
It was an informative and wonderful historical coverage episode about 3rd Crusaders. Shared by an amazing ( History Marche) channel....thank you for sharing
Richard was a total bad ass.
Easy to be tough when you extort an entire country's wealth to pay for endless supplies and mercenaries to fight pointless wars where you quit at the end because you're scared it might cost you something. He's a coward for this and should be decried as a failed Crusader.
@@Ausplainer haha. Guy had everything to lose but put it all on the line anyway. I'm Muslim but the facts are the facts.
@enthusiast0 how did he put it all on the line when he wheeled back to the mainland the moment his Holdings were in minor danger lol
Hey my brother I must say I truly enjoy your history research narrative and expository telling. The fact that you pronounce place names correctly as they were called in that time period shows the depth and accuracy of research you bring to your program and each individual episode. I especially appreciate your understanding of the relationship between Richard and Saladin. Given my understanding of human nature I would venture to say they both the respected and appreciated each other more than they did their backstabbing half-stepping countrymen and so-called allies. Yeah both of them were betrayed by their so-called allies, Richard by French allis and Saladin by his Emirs . I do believe both of those leaders were men of God following their God the god of their understanding to the best of their ability with honor and chivalry. I salute your effort as a historian and truly appreciate what I see plainly and clearly as your labor of love. Bon vie Mon ami 😊
By the "Capetian King", the Plantagenêt were technically French too (or Frankish to be exact), the concept of nationality did not exist back then. A huge part of Richard's army was from Duchies and Counties in France too.
And Phillip II left 10 000 men under the orders of Guy III of Burgundy.
Love the video, regret looking in the comments section lol
Incredibly engaging.
Great men once walked the earth..
Worth seeing again and again.
Korean here. My two most favourite characters from the Holy Crusade, Richard the Lionheart and Saladin Ayubi. Mad respect to these two Kings and Mighty Warriors. What true Legends!

LOVE these videos!!!! BEST on UA-cam, BY A LOT!!!
First time I’ve come across this channel.
Left a comment & 👍 as a sacrifice to the algorithm. I 0:10 listened to the whole episode in 1 go while cooking & tinkering, the time flew by because Inwas immersed in the narrative.
Amazing! Thank you! The crusades battles are my favourite! Montgisard battle would be great to see and also the battle of Navas de Tolosa.
My humble offering to the algorithm Well done!

Thank you so much. Very kind of you to support my work.
One Word, GREAT! BUT!! With that said a few more words indeed. One of the best if not the best video on the 3nd Crusades. ☦️⚔️☪️
I am a Kurd.and I am very proud of Saladin Ayyubi
Thank you for the video! Amazing story telling! Subscribed and going to see more of your content!
Baha' al-Din, a contemporary Muslim soldier and biographer of Saladin, recorded a tribute to Richard's martial prowess at this battle: "I have been assured ... that on that day the king of England, lance in hand, rode along the whole length of our army from right to left, and not one of our soldiers left the ranks to attack him. The Sultan was wroth thereat and left the battlefield in anger
you know its Impossible to find out any single name of any weapons master that trained Richerd.
ALL accounts say that his skill was remarkable....so who taught him???
Świetnie zaprezentowany materiał historyczny. Przydał się, bo obecnie oglądam turecki serial o Saladynie.
Pour l'algorithme. Thank you for all your work, your videos deserve way more views.
That quote on the video was well put - When men became beasts, this was a well done series
The ONLY bad thing about these videos is that they eventually end. Fantastic, entertaining, and historically accurate - trust me. I was there (as a nurse by day and wench by night)
What an incredible video to remember old times! I miss my brothers from the crusades
Nice one -- love the (longer) ones, where you can really sit back and listen...
Richard was an absolute unit when that axe got in his hands lol
First map ive seen with the boundaries of Richards Anjouvin kingdom. Awesome
What happened to the countless Christians during the takeover of the Mediterranean coasts by Saracens? Were they all spared and given a gift of land? Wonderful merciful Saracens.
Some will cope hard with this fact.
Bro, Christians equals white equals oppressors. Muslims equal brown people equals victims.
Very informative. I am glad to have these videos.
HistoryMarche, there are more two parts battles to combine on video to make such as:
Battle of the three kings, 1578 AD
First Battle of Tarain, 1191 AD ⚔ The First Islamic Conquest of India and Second Battle of Tarain, 1192 AD ⚔ Muhammad of Ghor Returns.
Battle of Targoviste, 1462 AD
Battle of Cynoscephalae, 197 BC
Alfred The Great Battle of Ashdown and Edington.
I hope you can voice and narrate the battle of Targoviste that would be awesome to see your next video. And I hope you narrate the first part of How did Rome Conquer Italy? the Battle of Cynoschephalae, 197 BC by Knowledgia when you combine the second part of the video.
Best history channel! Love from Kyrgyzstan!
Incredible documentary!
That was awesome, thank you very much!
Thanks for this long chapter; dividing those chapters on battles doesn't allow us to understand the complex situation of the conflict and the politics.
HistoryMarche i love your work, can you pls cover some more crusades? That'll be lovely
We need to take back the Holy Lands again. Deux Valt
Thank you for the well presented history lesson.
What a TIME to LIVE!!!👊👍✌EVERLASTING GLORY to ALL CRUSADERS all over the Europe!💪
Allah akbar!
I like how are you really proud of some groomer colonizers with crosses killing every life in thier path
Even the same in thier religion 😂
I visited the castle at Acre two years ago, I was walking around there thinking at the enormity of the task of taking a fortied city like that… the walls are like 20 metres high surrounded by a trench and another wall, its insane to think men on wooden ladders had to scale that while being attacked from above… those men were tough.
Wish I could share the photos I took here 😢
Indeed , they had the heart of a lion
A really exciting narrative. I realise how strange our vision of nationalities for these characters is . "King of France" : "France" is only a region around Paris; this part speaks french....but the rest speaks provencals, flemish (Belgians or netherland ?) , Lorrain (oh ! maybe they are german !). Richard king of England...but his mother and his father were fren....oh no ! they spoke occitan. He had probably a high number of occiitans than Brittish in his army as he ruled over twice more "french" than "english". Guy de Lusignan speaks french, i believ but he is the former king of ...Jerusalem. The only thing that counts is the title, the higher they had and it is not representative of todays geogrphy. Ah never forget that all these guys are rivals .
Bro you should research history first. Some part of France today are part of England before.
....or England is a part of the Plantagenet possessions. They come from Anjou and Aquitaine and were dukes and counts there before reigning over England. Henri II is born in Fance (Le Mans) Alienor grew at Bordeaux and is buried at Fontevrault, Richard is born at Oxford, but he died in France and is buried at Fontevraut too. Did they speak english ? Just bribes. England, France has no sense at this period . I know history.
Thanks for your gigantic efforts to unleash the greatness of the history, what a heroic legacy was built by these relentless men.
What a Fantastic program ! I love the HEROS of the past ! That's when men were men ! They had Guts ! Love it !
"The Lion Awakens!" should be the Dark Angels' new warcry.
this comment deserves more love haha
I gave it some love ;)
But able to reached holy Land
Excellent work!!! I thoroughly enjoyed this history lesson!!
Great Documentary. Bloody french not helping out again
A great overview of the 3rd Crusade!
Richard did not loose a single battle against Salah-Al-Din, recaptured the entire coastline and its trading cities, and had probably easily taken Jerusalem back as well if only he would've had a united front. The Muslims were bankrupt on morale from having their army almost destroyed against the Crusaders as well as Saladin failing to recapture Jaffa, so they might well have surrendered the city had a united crusader army reached its gates. The third crusade may not have achieved its main objective of taking the Holy City, but in terms of battles won and gains made, it was a success and victory. Many chastise Richard for a ruler who put England in poverty with his wars, ignoring his monumental contributions for Christendom, as well as the fact that he was shown to be a capable manager from a young age, controlling the rebellious factions of his Angevin holdings in France. He was coming home to sort out affairs in Britain, but it was hardly his fault that was captured and died before reaching England. Had he managed the journey, he could've well stabilized the realm and maybe prevented the First Baron's War in revolt against his brother.
For being captured, it was Richard's fault to made a feud with the germans in his journey to the holy land and he reached England in 1194 while dying in 1199.
Unfortunately for him, he was more a general than a ruler and know how to win battles but not how to end wars.
@@robert-surcouf To my knowledge it was a mutual feud and not just Richard being a jerk for no reason. And so not I can't agree that being imprisoned by supposed allies in crusade was his fault.
As I said, we do not know what would've happened had he made his way back to England unhindered. By indications of his early life in Normandy he did possess some administrative skill. So to just say he was worthless as a king is without merit in my book.
@@alexanderb5726 For the mutual feud, yes and no.
Leopold had put his flag alongside Richard's and Philippe's flag at Acre as the HRE biggest noble even if he wasn't a king and Richard's men threw the flag down.
It seems also but it's not proven that Richard publicly insulted Leopold.
After the feud, Leopold quit the crusade and Philippe made the same not so long after for different reasons.
Richard was indeed imprisoned by fellow crusaders but the crusade was already over and it was in HRE lands, not holy land.
If Richard had come back sooner, it will be likely that Philippe and John scheming will not be so damaging but the revolt will hapenned for all of Richard's life whatsoever.
In his early life, Richard didn't manage Normandy but the county of Poitiers since 1170 then the duchy of Aquitaine in 1172 because Henry the younger was supposed to inherit their father's land as the first born and Richard will inherit their mother's land as the second born (Henry 2 was only duke consort of Aquitaine as Aquitaine will not stayed with the angevin empire after Henry's death but Henry's the younger death changed everything)
@@robert-surcouf I'm aware of the flag incident but we don't know the context. Could be that Leopold claimed the city as if it was all his own doing which Richard's men then understandably took issue with. We don't know.
I also know of when and where he was imprisoned but over or not, they were allies just returned from conquering in the Holy Land. To imprison a king over a something which from what we know seems to add up to a simple squabble is highly uncalled for. It could just as well have been done out of jealousy by Leopold at Richard's momentous success on his own in the Third Crusade.
"If Richard had come back sooner, it will be likely that Philippe and John scheming will not be so damaging but the revolt will hapenned for all of Richard's life whatsoever." I think that is speculation. Richard was widely charismatic and a harsh ruler. To say the revolt was inevitable even if he was there is to underestimate the effect of strong kings. I still conclude that we do not know whether he would've performed well or poorly since he was never given the chance to return to England.
@@alexanderb5726 You're right that we don't know the context but the only facts accepted was that Leopold flag was threw and everything else is just assumption.
They were allies in holy land but they don't returned at the same time and their alliance end when the crusade end.
The reason for Leopold imprisonned Richard is likely petty and he will be punished by the pope but Leopold was smart enough to not keep Richard and give him to the emperor instead.
When i talk about revolts, it's not only about those made by Philippe or John but by any noble whose vassal to Richard.
The plantagenet empire at the late 12th century was diverse with england, part of Wales, Ireland and half of france and ruling it was hard, especially for someone like Richard who was more a general than a king and had never showned that he was politically brilliant but it's still assumptions.
S-Tier content as usual, but as I was listening from the other room, something hit my ear and gave me pause. The bit about King Philip landing at the siege of Acre on 4/20 1191 bringing 'vital supplies of grain and corn.' 18:54
Corn (as we now think of it) being a New World species would be totally unavailable for another 300 years, so I looked it up. Apparently, the English have been using the term 'corn' to refer to various foodstuffs such as oats, barley, and wheat for ages. Next time you see any medieval sources talking about corn in Europe, trip ye not citizen, for they're just talking about other grains/crops. TIL.
30:25 before dying, Frederick founded a Hospital Order, and sent a message to his brother, now Emperor Henry VI, to approve of this Order, in 1199 this Order would also be approved of the Pope and would be known as the Order of the Holy Mary, in other words the Teutonic Knights.
Outstanding content as always 👌
If only had Richard not been betrayed at home and been able to stay on in the Levant for one more year!
Awesome vid thanks . Men of courage on both sides . Life then must have been brutal . Cheers from New Zealand

This is just too well detailed
First video I’ve seen of yours. I’m subscribing right now.
As a Muslim, I have massive respect for leaders and general like Richard even though they were our adversaries. True definition of courage, strength, power and intellect, gained by faith. ALLAH HU AKBAR
Thank you for the amazing work 🙃
That was awesome
Thanks for your hard work on this awsome video. Greetings from Chile!
As Muslim I greet your historical unbiased and I would say that even if Muslims did bad things after it is wars and history must be said without disturbing no matter
Good to hear your opinion, make your voice heard, opinions like yours are important for dark days like these.
Peace brother.
Muslims never did any bad things
Muslims just defended their own land
He still bias always making excuses for crusaders when it goes wrong blaming on tiredness lack of food which is a lies. Or them having issues in their camp but muslim also has issue with people in their camp but won't mention it.
they had been between 2 armies so the cannot scavenge like Saladin. ALso he mentioned lack of food in Acre. And "issue" u claim is mentioned on both sides. U r biased yourself and full of lies.@@pirateblackhawkdown9047
Let's just say when you said "THEN, the sight of the king's Lion standard flying from the outer wall's gave new hope!" I lost it.. Its like every time you say "THEN" I know something is going down.. Followed you since the start.. Ill follow you till the end. Just like they did Richard and Saladin. Thanks for this.
Sacrifice to the algorithm! 🍻
ty for this amazing video i really enjoyed it!
Glad you enjoyed it!
