As a sicilian: our identity started with the norman conquest. The normans took what was left of christian sicily, re-latinized it after both Costantinople and the arabs tried to impose their influence, and created a powerful Kingdom which also conquered parts of Africa and eastern Rome. A proud sicilian here with some ( I have relatives with surnames of norman origin) norman ancestry.
Could you give some examples of Norman surname in Sicily?
@@sungminlee249 these surnames were introduced by the normans: Gerardi, Arnone, Auteri, Franzese, Provenzano, Manfrè, and so on
@@esti-od1mz thank you
@@sungminlee249 you're welcome. If we want to be more precise, we should remember that during the norman times many immigrants came to Sicily who were not from Northern France, but from other western european areas. That's why surnames like "Provenzano" and "Lombardo" exist here
@@esti-od1mz "northern france" tends to refer to the northernmost region (picardie and what is today nord-pas de calais), not normandy
It's very nice that you even added Roscelin of Balliuel that ruled Galatia for a moment.
Around Palermo and trapani 10% Norman mixture . We are a mix of Greek Roman, middle eastern-berber, Franch Norman and spanish mixed in WEST SICILY
Kingdom of Sicily was founded by King Roger 2 in 1130. Sicily was one of the richest state in Europe
And sikanoi and Carthaginians and whatever the Romans brought over and whatever the EU has brought over now
Have you gotten genetic testing of your Y-DNA line to determine if you are descended from Roger and the Normans? Haplogroup I2a2a (I-M223)-more specifically I2a2a3 (Z161+)-and 99% of I2-Z161 belong to subclade I2-L801-originating in Denmark, spread by Danish Vikings across North Germany, Netherlands-and Normandy, whence they became Normans and spread Norman lines to England and to West Sicily. Northwest Sicily, around the Norman Court at Palermo, holds Italy’s densest concentration of Germanic genetic admixture (30-40+%)-more than in Lombardy.
Throughout Italy/Sicily are other sources of Germanic genes-e.g. Ostrogoths, Vandals, Longobards, other Vikings and Norsemen, Varangians*, Anglo-Saxons*, Swabians-but for sure Normans are the predominant Norse genetic contributor in Sicily and in some other parts of South Italy.
*For centuries in Middle Ages there were Norse mercenary armies fighting each other across Italy on behalf of Lombard Kingdom of Italy (Normans) vs. Byzantine Catepanate of Italy (Varangians).
Varangian Guard units were originally all
Norsemen from Scandinavia, but after Norman Conquest of England, growing numbers of Anglo-Saxons wanted to keep fighting Normans by journeying to Constantinople to join Varangian Guard which would be sent to Italy to fight Lombards and their Norman knights.
Even before Norman conquests of England and Sicily, they were already interconnected. Varangians delivered humiliating defeat to Lombards+Normans at 1018 Battle of Cannæ in South Italy (Apulia)-but Normans swore they would come back victorious to conquer South Italy+Sicily.
Norseman Harald Hardrada (born in Norway c. 1015) served as commander of Varangian Guard in Byzantine service in Italy/Sicily-fighting alongside Norman William De Hauteville (“William Iron-Arm”) in 1030s-40s.
Harald Hardrada returned from Sicily to be King of Norway in 1046; 20 years later he invaded England-but was defeated by Anglo-Saxon King Harold Godwinson’s English army at Battle of Stamford Bridge on 25 September 1066. Just 3 weeks after defeating Hardrada’s Norse army, Godwinson’s Anglo-Saxons were defeated by Normans led by William the Conqueror invading England from Normandy at Battle of Hastings on 14 October 1066.
Thereafter Anglo-Saxon warriors began leaving England to join Varangian Guard-so they could team up with Norse Varangians (like Norwegian Harald Hardrada), and-having lost England to Norman Conquest-Anglo-Saxons sought opportunity as Varangians to keep fighting Normans in Italy/Sicily.
Troll
for normand people it was/is pretty much the same, we are a mix of franks, latinized gaulish and a bit of norses and anglo saxons
They changed English forever.
The (Norman) French creolised the old Anglo-Saxon tongue to birth English.
we should save the norman language
Incredible
I couldn't added Norman invasions on the Balkans, looks like we found out what it was about this time. Good vid!
New video??
Thank you very much
Babe wake up costas melas just uploaded a new mapping video
0:18 I love the history of the Normans and of the France❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Loved this !!!
rollo is one of my favorite caracthers in vikings
Great video. I suggest you to make a video about Transeurasian language family, it will be fascinating.
Thank you
Can you do languages of iran before the establishment of achaemenid empire
nice. too bad you did not go longer - Between 1402 and 1405, the expedition led by the Norman noble Jean de Bethencourt[54] and the Poitevine Gadifer de la Salle conquered the Canarian islands of Lanzarote, Fuerteventura and El Hierro off the Atlantic coast of Africa. Their troops were gathered in Normandy, Gascony and were later reinforced by Castilian colonists.
Bethencourt took the title of King of the Canary Islands, as vassal to Henry III of Castile.
Very interesting. Although in the 15th century the Normans of the Duchy were simply French
@@CostasMelas They were simply French since the 11th century. Guillaume le Conquerant was a French man.
@@timeup2549 france didnt exist at this time, Williame li conquereor was normand
@@enkero1462 France was a kingdom at the time with its own culture and language. Yes, it did exist. It was England that didn't. England only came to exist as an offshoot of French civilization after the 100 years war ended which was a French royal house fighting against another, one of these houses owned England. It was only when the house that owned England lost the war that the Angevin kingdom ended and English culture became independent from France.
Excellent video! It's kinda odd you depicted Buda from the start though, especially since it didn't move location after 1242.
Thank you. Indeed, Buda is a later center of the region. Maybe i should have put the city Esztergom
@@CostasMelas It's a really difficult question, tbh. Perhaps your best bet could have been leaving the Carpathian basin without a marked settlement at first, then marking either Esztergom or Fehérvár from the 970s.
It wasn't the focus of the video though, so it doesn't really matter that much.
Great and accurate video!!!
Thank you
I live in Montreal and my ancestor are from Normandie
This goes well with The History of English Podcast.
great video
Thank you very much
Normandy & Anjou ❤
Nice
very nice video but PLEASE DO THE ROMANIAN LANGUAGE HISTORY, separately from the other romance languages and maybe in more detail, plus the aromanians didnt just settle there from the beginning they migrated from moesia
I think one day he'll do a video about linguistic history of the Balkans instead
My family name is Danesi which means Danish in italian and Corsican. I wonder if it’s because I would have normans of Italy as ancestors
Great video. Perhaps you should’ve changed some of the cities shown (Esztergom for Buda, Krakow for Warsaw, and later on added some, like Tîrgoviște or Belgrade). Either way I quite like this video. Excluding Normans, Britain gains independence from the Romans, technically.
Thank you very much. You're right. Another user also mentioned this to me about Buda.
Nice vid
There were no city of Warsaw before 1300. The first Polish capitals was Gniezno (960-1038) and Cracow (1038-1596)
I shouldn't have included Warsaw and Buda so early
the house Plantagenet is from Anjou, not from Normandie
Indirectly connected through Matilda, granddaughter of William the Conqueror, who was heir to the Norman possessions
NORMANDY 🇯🇪 🇬🇬
So did residents of Calais speak English when they were under English rule, as suggests your recent video about British Isles? Is there some evidence of it?
what happened in 1399?
Transition to the House of Lancaster, typically the end of the Anglo-Normans, although some sources place it earlier
@@CostasMelas thanks
@@CostasMelasWerent lancasters a cadet branch?
William the Conqueror ✌️
I wonder what would have happened if they conquered all of France
10th-century Warsaw is interesting.
I shouldn't have included Warsaw and Buda so early
You forgot about Novgorod
YO!

make language familiez again
Problem is that they have to be wrong most of the time due to sometimes "dialects" not even being mutually intelligible and language being very blurry in pre-modern times.
@@hsdiamond2113
But people only watch this channel, because of language famlies. I dont care, if he got small thing incorrect, when I still want to see how exciting way langauge evolves.
@@Jout8-re1ij Modern English is far more latinized than the Ancient One,transformed almost as a latin language. A Great contribution from the Normans too
@@Jout8-re1ij It's not just a small thing though. There's a decent amount of flaws in all his previous videos and it's quite hard to research
So these guys were Anglo Saxons and Norsemen technically?
Probably more French and Norse than Anglo Saxon, until the end.
Nice
