This guy was able to survive the barbarian invasion without turtling in the Italian peninsula and even got a contingent of auxilia palatina .. what's more mind boggling is he can muster a catafracti cav in the western side of the empire ..
Towards the late empire the legions shifted to more cavalry, then infantry, because their enemies had more cavalry + it was easier and cheaper and faster to engage the barbarian war bands who raided the roman lands. Cathracts were common in the late roman empire, they were adopted long before this battle took place and werent uncommon in the western part of the empire.

The Roman Empire self destructed because a good political system (republic) was replaced by a bad system (dictatorship which developed into monarchy). With no accountability to the people or a powerful senate, really bad laws and decisions, corruption and power struggles became the norm, with a few more intelligent leaders halting the decline only temporarily.
@@carldombrowski8719 I wonder if you could tell the same if you were a plebian whose farmland taken over by a patrician just because you were out for longlasting war and your familiy could not afford to live without you
Usually, soldiers on duty received spoils and land for that. Your argument makes no sense. Also, dictatorships have always exploited their people more than democracies and made their countries poor through mismanagement and corruption.
@@carldombrowski8719 No it wasn't. roman people went to the war to defend the their country, there was no land for that untill Marius. you should read some history (starting with gracchi brothers) before calling arguments 'non sense'.

I find it amazing how someone nearly 2000 years ago recorded these events, the records of which were then passed down and preserved until the invention of the internet. The details of these amazing battles are now recorded for all to see and understand forever - the generals and combatants would never in a million years think they'd be immortalised in such a way! If you think how easy it is for a book you own to be destroyed and damaged in a matter of years, imagine how impressive it is to keep a scroll preserved for 2000 years amongst war, rebellion, raiding etc - it will always blow my mind! Also imagine how many amazing battles and unique generals/people were lost to history, whose stories didn't make it to the age of the internet.

It's a terrific review of the sordid civil conflict that usually facilitated a destructive barbarian incursion. The Alemanni were incredibly vicious psychopaths who slaughtered tens of thousands in the area the Romans abandoned in the 3rd century, and possibly massacred hundreds of thousands in the early 5th century as they wiped out Roman cities and forts on the west side of the Rhine. That era would be a great recreation!
LMFAO what an idiotic comment. Vicious psychopaths? That's the time period buddy. The Roman's slaughtered just as many lmao. Especially throughout their history. They made a sport of genocide.
@@UltimaSigmarAlonso Except the barbarians didn't build anything or replace the things they destroyed and areas under their control mostly went backwards in development. That is why they have such an extremely negative reputation.

Great !! I think I am not the only one who can't resist the notification of a new History Marche video. It's a new and virgin topic which was not covered by any other channel and of course the details as always extraordinary . There is a lot of virgin topics like battle of Amourium, Nehavend and Khalid Ibn Alwalid conquest in in Sasanid Persia which will be a good future videos. Thanks a lot
Julian the Apostate is my favourite Roman Emperor. I wrote a term paper on him 20+ years ago in one of my Classics courses. To think of how things might have been had he not been assassinated.
I lived 10 years in Athens exactly over the area where Julian had his palace in Athens and the front street still carries his name. Julian actually decided for Paris to become the capital of France. For all those who search on the common origin of the EU
Thanks for another fantastic video guys, loving the collabs with Hoc Est Bellum! How certain can we be of the Roman casualty figures? I would assume they're from a Roman source which would possibly give smaller numbers than reality
Yep, the casualty figures are suspect, to say the least. But that's what the sources gave. The Romans probably played down the real number of men that died in the battle
What a glorious morning, 26 min video, tough i would like to point out that i prefer the old design for troops, more representative, but the overall graphics? Amazing
When History Marche uploads two videos in the span of a month, this is proof that the impossible can occur. Seriously though, amazing video. That's perhaps why Carthage would hire multiple mercenary groups which would not give one an overwhelming majority. Poor Julian
From Paraguay my friend!! Great video!! By the way my country fought the two greatest wars in all of America after the american civil war so maybe sometime you can have a look
Good job guys (it gets boring to repeat that :D). His name was Iulian, there is no "J" in Classical Latin, my favourite emperor BTW. As your map states correctly, it was the town of Argentoratum, therefore the battle of Argentoratum. Straßburg came half a century later with different people, culture, language, architecture, size etc.
I come from Strasbourg and your video is very interesting to understand this unknown event in my region ! Maybe I could help for french subtitles to reach french audience.
Thats so interesting, i really feel quite uniquely when part of my work can make certain historical incidents better known to modern day inhabitants of those places. Thank you for watching!

incredibly amazing visuals and great narration. please, do more like this one.
It's a terrific review of the sordid civil conflict that usually facilitated a destructive barbarian incursion. The Alemanni were incredibly vicious psychopaths who slaughtered tens of thousands in the area the Romans abandoned in the 3rd century, and possibly massacred hundreds of thousands in the early 5th century as they wiped out Roman cities and forts on the west side of the Rhine. That era would be a great recreation!
Don’t know why you call a people group incredible psychopaths not cool
LMFAO what an idiotic comment. Vicious psychopaths? That's the time period buddy. The Roman's slaughtered just as many lmao. Especially throughout their history. They made a sport of genocide.
@@UltimaSigmarAlonso Because they only plundered and destroyed.
@@mich722 so did most civilizations of that time
@@UltimaSigmarAlonso Except the barbarians didn't build anything or replace the things they destroyed and areas under their control mostly went backwards in development. That is why they have such an extremely negative reputation.
HistoryMarche on some crazy ass shit recently , great work 👏🏾
Hehe, thanks mate.
Cool, I've been waiting for someone to do this battle for a long time!
Been waiting since 357AD
I can watch History Marche all day!!! Thank you for all the hard work you do! Even 4 year old video are awesome.
The english wikipedia article of this battle was one of the most fascinating reads ever.
Wikipedia is not a 100% reliable source of truth, everyone can write and edit the info
@@GiNyYu222 Even so, everyone knows that it consistently delivers an easily-digestible, low-resolution image of events. If you're looking for specifics, you look to the references and elsewhere.
@@GiNyYu222 r/whoosh
Really though, Wikipedia is a trustworthy site as all its content is constantly monitored by *thousands more* with all needed citations and such. No one in Wiki, especially in academic articles, make things up from their arse. They have to cite any input of information.
@@Carmoth86730 Actually both views are correct.He is right that Wikipedia is problematic source(...and at universities they are usually not happy if student states "wikipedia" as source).On the other hand it does not mean every article on it is bad.Many are actually well written and in case informations are given references it should be no problem.At the same time however it is not hard to find very eroneous informations even in otherwise well written articles there from time to time.
@@GiNyYu222 even your mom
Truly great video. Thank you
Thank you for watching.
The Empire is whole again.
Then it broke again.
This is top of the line quality.
Not only is it extremely hard to be as objective and detailed as possible when it comes to dates this far back, but the animations too are flawless.
Just perfect! /respect from a history buff (800-1600 favourite subject)
Thank you sir for the kind words. Make sure to check Hoc Est Bellum channel, he did most of the work in this one. Here's the link to his channel: ua-cam.com/channels/l5m12RUvypT4e7w-mWrzsA.html
Julian the Apostate is one of my favorite figures in the Later Roman Empire.! great video
He was a complete hero.
@@dreamer2260 he was a champion and a hero. " The only inheritance i have of my fathers is a heart the knows no fear" or something like that.
@@sunofpeter2 ah very nice.
Youre going to have 1 mill subscribers sooner or later. By far one of the best history based youtube channels!!
That's very kind of you. Thank you very much.
The graphics are better and better. Good work
Great !!
I think I am not the only one who can't resist the notification of a new History Marche video.
It's a new and virgin topic which was not covered by any other channel and of course the details as always extraordinary .
There is a lot of virgin topics like battle of Amourium, Nehavend and Khalid Ibn Alwalid conquest in in Sasanid Persia which will be a good future videos.
Thanks a lot
Thank you for watching. I definitely plan to cover more of Khalid's battles in the coming months. There are some true gems there.
@@HistoryMarche
Good luck with that waiting you Sir
Your maps are always amazing!
Looking forward to some Spartan content :)
2 minutes old and yep, im commenting on my gleeful anticipation before Ive even watched it.
I just love the voice of the narrator... such a fitting history voice lol
Please keep 'em coming, your work is exceptional!
Thank you sir.
Damn! I always love your videos in every detailing, keep it up mate.
Julian the Apostate is my favourite Roman Emperor. I wrote a term paper on him 20+ years ago in one of my Classics courses. To think of how things might have been had he not been assassinated.
French guy here 🤚🏻
Yet never heard of that battle before. Thanks !!
I really like the animations. A step above the norm I think.
I lived 10 years in Athens exactly over the area where Julian had his palace in Athens and the front street still carries his name. Julian actually decided for Paris to become the capital of France. For all those who search on the common origin of the EU
incredible work!
Thanks for another fantastic video guys, loving the collabs with Hoc Est Bellum!
How certain can we be of the Roman casualty figures? I would assume they're from a Roman source which would possibly give smaller numbers than reality
Yep, the casualty figures are suspect, to say the least. But that's what the sources gave. The Romans probably played down the real number of men that died in the battle
Awesome video and great narration! Bravo.
It's always great to see more of your well made videos, and your collaborations with other channels 😄
Cheers mate! Yeah, Hoc Est Bellum is a close friend. He make awesome animated battles himself.
this channel truly deserves more praise in abonees
What a glorious morning, 26 min video, tough i would like to point out that i prefer the old design for troops, more representative, but the overall graphics? Amazing
Awesome video. Never knew about this Julian guy.
When History Marche uploads two videos in the span of a month, this is proof that the impossible can occur. Seriously though, amazing video. That's perhaps why Carthage would hire multiple mercenary groups which would not give one an overwhelming majority. Poor Julian
Hey Nimish, thank you very much.
Thank you for this great presentation
Thank you for watching.
2 videos in a week? Dam I'm blessed !
Thank you for watching.
Too nice video with clear explaining of events.....
That legend of Julian
been a sub of kings and generals for ages, but you guys cover so much they don't and vice versa, i sub thee both
Thank you sir. Welcome to the channel.
From Paraguay my friend!! Great video!! By the way my country fought the two greatest wars in all of America after the american civil war so maybe sometime you can have a look
Great one! Thx!
I love your video. Thank you! RIP Julian the Apostate. What about Julians death. I want to know about that further.
Good job guys (it gets boring to repeat that :D).
His name was Iulian, there is no "J" in Classical Latin, my favourite emperor BTW.
As your map states correctly, it was the town of Argentoratum, therefore the battle of Argentoratum. Straßburg came half a century later with different people, culture, language, architecture, size etc.
I come from Strasbourg and your video is very interesting to understand this unknown event in my region ! Maybe I could help for french subtitles to reach french audience.
Thats so interesting, i really feel quite uniquely when part of my work can make certain historical incidents better known to modern day inhabitants of those places.
Thank you for watching!
this my favourite channel on the all youtube, every video could be the story of a well made historical film
Thank you sir.
As a fan of roman history, I knew julian but just by name. Thank you to show what a great emperor he was !
Superb work. Again 👍🏻
The background music !!! I Want it!!! What an amazing channel
Whats the song
I am trying so hard to find it
Excelent, video great narration and fantastic graphics.
Thank you very much.
@@HistoryMarche Can't find words to praise you guys more!
Been a loyal subscriber since 12K subscribers. Alex's voice is much better
Hey Ahmed. Both Alex and David are on the team. You'll hear Alex soon in Hannibal episode 8
Totally agree. Nothing personal against David of course, but for me Alex is the voice of Historymarche
@@HistoryMarche Hannibal episode 8! Yes
The other guy has a fuller, rounder sound, like some air caught in a pocket is his throat is also reverberating. It's quite pleasant to listen to, and gives this channel a unique quality. :)
@@emamag6455 yeah, David is also cool
