These videos have got me through some rough patches, so I feel you. Can’t panic when my brain is focused on keeping all these names and dates straight, right? 😂😂😂
I cannot express how pleased I am to find a documentary series that is thorough, well-written, and tastefully narrated--sans fluff and bluster! It's like having a refresher course in history. My only suggestion for improvement is to include more maps.
I always tell myself that I must have had past lives in England & been around some of these stories cuz I really just can’t get enough of this kind of stuff. Thank u for all the hard work you put into making a video like this. Thanks again & gods bless every1
I feel that way lol, and I feel like some must have had multiple past lives,cause you watch alot of these,and 1s just covering all the ancient world,and so many aspects feel,..familiar??anglo,Egypt, Mediterranean, north american,south American...u see so many of these areas,some are said to have never crossed paths yet,never met,and yh they all feel weirdly familiar...eh,..what do i know hahaha 🤷♂️🙄🤣✌️🍻
@@2msvalkyrie529 believe me,would very much LOVE to see alot of that part of the world, I watch sky news and Tousi TV lol,and I feel so bad for what's goin on over there!it's crazy watching it all,from what happened here a few wks ago(with trump) to the stabbing of those poor girls!THIS HAS TO STOP,ALL THIS NONSENSE!!be safe maam,good journey 😁✌️🥃
This channel does a great job of covering and overlapping the time line. The channel stays out of the deeper political and religious issues and stays on point.
Always find it funny how the English champion Richard as a English icon when he couldn’t stand England and once said if he could find a good price for London he’d sell it,spoke French seen himself as the Duke of Normandy,but yet he’s a English super hero 😂
Technically, there was two language spoken in medieval france. The language of oc spoken in the southern half like the aquitaine and the language of oil spoken in Anjou, Maine or Normandy so Richard was bilingual but neither of them was middle english.
@@robert-surcouf wow thanks mate you know your shit, so like if France were playing England in the World Cup who would Richard be supporting ? I say France.
@@ski8615 It's hard to say because i don't think Richard will like a sport with all the players always falling to the ground anytime someone barely touch them. I think he will be a huge fan of rugby instead and in that case, will rather support France because most of the players and club came from southwest france where Richard was a duke while he will feel no real bonds with english players.
Amazing how these kids took on huge responsibilities for war, admin etc, at the age of 14! And Edward VI was an incredible authority and debater on the correctness of Protestantism at the age of NINE!!!
An excellent start - could you please always add the populations of each country at the time you narrate their history as well as towns if possible? This is a huge influence upon how history plays out! With Capital cities having only about 50,000 citizens in the 1300's it seems extraordinary how such huge armies were created - armed ,fed and paid etc.!
It’s because a Frank (German) dude conquered a lot of territory previously held by Rome. The Pope wanted to be under his protection, so he named him emperor of the Romans as the spiritual successor to the Roman Empire. From that point forward Germanic kings would hold the position and be elected into it since the western section became France.
@@jackperales1076 thank you for that clarification I kinda understand it in my mind but it was like I still couldn't grasp it. That makes it easier. It's still weird to think. Like it just sounds weird I guess. That part of history I am still needing to learn more about.
@@ColorsFlight The eastern Roman Empire (which was still kicking) had given some authority to Odoacer (another Germanic dude) to rule over Italy when the western empire fell to pieces. For a long time Rome was more a centralizing political force than a homogenous thing, and so from their PoV it made sense to call back to it as a form of getting legitimacy.
@@LadyCat183The worst English king was Henry VI. While, it seems like he had some mental health concerns, and perhaps a learning disorder and/or an anxious personality, he was ineffective and couldn't make the hard decisions. He also had some kind of mental breakdown around the middle point of his reign when he was catatonic for many, many months. That left his wife to be queen regent until the king woke up.
I have a very negative attitude about Becket. I do not believe he was even close to being any kind of saint. In truth I suspect he spent some time in purgatory. I would even go so far as to believe that Becket's soul will end up with Satan rather than with Jesus.
you cant ever have too many maps in this type of video... something small in the corner to highlight a duchy, for example, and its location overall in europe... big picture
Yes. I think Matilda would have made aa good queen and ruler. The Patriarchal ideals of male rulers only was proven flawed later in history starting with Queen Elizabeth 1, who was one of Englands most noted rulers, going to modern day. Many strong women just in England proved themselves behind the scenes before this era and onward to the Elizabethan age. Queen Mary Tudor might have done better if she did not have a well understood agenda for her rule.
@@garrybroadbent8297- Ah yes, how banal to notice that the state broadcaster is attempting to erase the English from their own history in favor of foreigners. 🙄
But they were also descended from the Anglo-Saxon kings of England ... so perfectly entitled! The Royals gradually began to speak English, anyway, until Henry Vths Court spoke only English (1400s).

@@ski8615no England. He ruled French dutchies, there was a King of France. In fact, his Mother's first husband was King of France.
Richard was not worshipped, however his brother John was such a bad King, that Richard did seem the heroic one.

Amazing content as always!
Love English history! Thanks For this Guys
Great video. Verry educational and enjoying my household loved it from NewZealand
Amazing how these kids took on huge responsibilities for war, admin etc, at the age of 14!

Just Excellent
My new sleep video ❤ thanks!
Here is Marcus son of Wilhelm Son of Kaiser Wilhelm the Third
Good work here.
Best wishes from Germany to UK
Sincerely,
Marcus
Just subscribed 😊
Brilliantly done.
Johns like a lil spoilt brat,daddy’s favourite smart man but like his mother said he’s an immature teenager (paraphrasing).
So many Matildas
Wow, two Matildas. Meanwhile, eight Henrys, eight Edwards, and six Georges.
1:06:47
But if Stephen was born to a daughter of The Conqueror, wouldn't that make him the grandson of the Conqueror??
yeah I think they were cousins
Yes he was William's grandson
But Matilda was the daughter of an elder son (spot the irony) whereas Stephen was only the son of William's daughter.

I think it's weird that Germans were called Emperor of the Romans. I sorta understand the history but I still don't get that part.

@@jackperales1076 thank you
Henry II was the best English King
See: Common law
We'll need a jury to decide that one 🤪
@@PeopleProfilesExtraI see what you did there!
Totally Agree
King John being the worst King in English history might be a stretch
Other than James 1 and Charles 1,who are you volunteering for worse. John was a fairly good King, just a really cruel one.
@@LadyCat183 Charles 1 was definitely my pick
Ironically John was the king who galvanised an Anglo Norman English identity that only came about by losing hereditary lands in Normandy….

Agree, I suspect the problem is that they are all super Copyright!
yes
Almost like house of dragons
Two queens named Matilda, and they went to war with each other. How strange is that.
Yes. I think Matilda would have made aa good queen and ruler. The Patriarchal ideals of male rulers only was proven flawed later in history starting with Queen Elizabeth 1, who was one of Englands most noted rulers, going to modern day. Many strong women just in England proved themselves behind the scenes before this era and onward to the Elizabethan age. Queen Mary Tudor might have done better if she did not have a well understood agenda for her rule.
Anne Boleyn gave birth to England’s greatest Monarch ❤
I'm glad I didn't inherit any kingdom in the 1100s ... rather flush toilets and fridges than a crown!
6:00 looking like Greta Thunderbird. 😄
😇🩷🙏🙌
Henry II is as underrated as Richard I is overrated.
😮😮😮😮😮
They’re supposed to be black, according to the BBC
Banal comment
@@garrybroadbent8297- Ah yes, how banal to notice that the state broadcaster is attempting to erase the English from their own history in favor of foreigners. 🙄
This lady is a many times removed great granny.
After 1066 when the Normans conquered England there were no more English Kings these are Norman Kings and they spoke French.
They’re English enough
But they were also descended from the Anglo-Saxon kings of England ... so perfectly entitled!
The Royals gradually began to speak English, anyway, until Henry Vths Court spoke only English (1400s).
Catholic here. But the idea of British "Royal blood" makes my Irish blood boil 🤮
I was really interested in this video but had to stop watching as the background music is so intrusive
