eff❤😂😂😂 😅😂😂😅😂😅 😂
Pleas do a series on the Stuart dynasty. I can not find any factual videos on them. Granted, some unplesant things might be presented, but you will include facts in a mature way.
O o o o look o o o
Done. Keep up the good work. In love your content so much.
I listen to these documentaries when i need to go to sleep. They're very soothing.
I do as well. Then I listen to them again when awake.
Me too. It's kind of love hate bc it is soothing but I'm also genuinely interested. Lol
The very same 😂
“He cost me much, but I wish he would be alive to cost me more”…
Words of Henry 2nd when he listened that his son Henry the young king died..
Excellent video
Wow! A 3 hour medieval history! Am having a day off tomorrow!😊
Saving this for when I finish work. 3 hours of medieval history to listen to while I relax.
Fantastic, eh?👌
I know right??? Perfect for just that! 🤓
I know that's right...i save it for night time b4 bed relaxation!!!
Hello. I was born in Le Mans, so I know this city pretty well. During the Middle Ages, Le Mans was the capital of the county of Maine. Today, the historic center of the city is called "plantagenet city". But nowadays, the city is best known worldwide for its 24 Hours of Le Mans car race.
Queen Berengere's abbaye is close by . A beautiful place.
Now I finally know where the word plantagenent comes from.
Would love series like this about the kings of France & the counts of Burgundy.
Gallic history.
Les rois de France.
I think King John had a problem with narcissism. He also had a problem with his mother, his brothers and his father. To my mind, he was a coward, very similar to Edward II. He had not a lick of sense in him, either good or bad and a lot of people suffered for it. Notice, please, that no other King of England has since been named John. I don't think that's a coincidence.
And thank you so much for this channel. I've been a frequent watcher and I learn something every time. My business involves working with my hands and it's really nice to be exercising my brain at the same time!
this channel is a true gem.
What is the name of this man known to us fans as the narrator?! Love, love, love his voice and this channel. I’ve learned so much watching this channel.
❤❤Excellent work !! CONGRATULATIONS to everybody that made it possible . 😊😊
It is so interesting and I appreciate the work that goes into these history vids🏆
Thank you for such a well presented and informative program. I didn’t know much about John and I appreciate the new information.
I've always thought Henry's fights with his sons were even worse than his fight with Thomas a Beckett.
This is a lot of information and interesting
I was brought up with the saying of 'Good King John', and that Richard was away having fun overseas, coming back to England to take back the throne, but never making it because he wanted one last fight.
“One whistle, one jump and one fart for the King”. What a sound bite!
Nobody is perfect.. Henry made mistakes.. but look at his achievements.. look at what he built. And all he did, he did while dealing with all the strife. He’s one of my favorite kings if not the number one favorite.
A joy to listen to. Many thanks.
Three hour doc about medieval stuff and things? Don’t mind if I do.
Sweet! New history Channel I can nerd out on lol glad I came across this.
17:00 You can almost hear the narrator start to crack up at the Roland the Farter part. History, man. Wild times.
The life of Henry II is the stuff of Greek tradgedy. He reached dizzying heights but his need for control and temper sowed the seeds of his downfall. Betrayed by every member of his family, he died a heartbroken king.
Thanks! I do enjoy the history of the Angevins! I've said it many times the Plantangenet Dynasty has so much intrigue and dysfunction,there is much to learn from them.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Henry II was by far the best of the bunch.
He WAS! A DREADFUL husband and father, but a genuinely GREAT KING!!
It was alleged that Henry II had an 8 year old mistress who was contracted to marry his son Richard (the Lionheart). She was sent to England as his ward. Her name was Alys and she was a daughter of Louis VII from his second wife. (The same Louis VII who had been married to Eleanor of Aquitaine.)There were rumours that she had a child with him. She later married the Count of Ponthieu. As Kat Harper said, great king, a dreadful husband and father and I'll add one more. Paedophile.
And John his son beeing the worst.
Excellent. I thought the playfulness of showing grainy black and white film of troops was really fun.
King John, was left a bankrupt country, left to him by his two predecessors. A French king that was a oath breaker trying to take his peoples lands
I am with the 3hr mid evil doc!!! Like it is so freaking interesting and relaxing...plus I can understand the commentator!!!
S/O from Baltimore, MD
Excellent work!
Readers should read Josephine Tey's " The Daughter of Time " a
fascinating recounting of the Richard III reign!
I love that book, my mother suggested it to me when I was 13. I have read it twice at least.
there is also The Sunne in Splendour, Sharon Penman
For those who interest is the 15th century Paul Murray Kendall’s Warwick the Kingmaker. Richard III The Yorkist Age and Louis XI. are all terrific reads. He knows his subject and his writing is superb. I urge people to read his books
I have read it. A great book written in a detective style.
Love this, thank you!! I love history lessons! 💖👑
Excited for a deep dive into medieval history during my downtime!
You should do an episode on Roland The Farter.
How jesters could get away with criticizing kings in a way even other nobles date not, is very interesting.
It would have been nice to include more maps and diagrams of the lands that the kings had, how they changed throughout the conflicts, etc. I'm not an expert on medieval geography
I’ve never heard that people agreed that Henry’s grandson would inherit. I’ve always read that Matilda herself would inherit. Interesting to hear that!
And holy cow 3+ hours? Fantastic. Thank you for your work!♥️
She intended to but didn't enough support and instead secured England for her son
@@AC-ze1nh Right. SHE was supposed to inherit, the PTB even swore loyalty to her. I’ve just never heard that they agreed her son would inherit.
3:03 "While Stephen was the nephew of the William the Conqueror having been born to the Conqueror's daughter.Adela....." ?
Yes, he was William the Conqueror's grandson, not nephew.
Think I'll watch The Lion in Winter again soon...
3 of my favourite English kings thank you very much
The other channel has no playlists. Need playlists! Please
Insatiable for history!!
Excellent channel 👏 👏👏
Makes you want to tear up... He wished his son was alive to cause him more...😢
Love the voice and the content!
@2:40:00 narrator states Arthur is the nephew of Eleanor when in fact he is her grandson
Great voice for chilled evening listening
His clash with becket was a political power struggle… his downfall was in not sparing the time from conquest, to be an honorable father figure/ role model. But… empires dont win themselves now, do they!
Phillip Agustus should have a video.
As a descendant of the Lusignan family, I have mixed feelings about John. On one hand he married an ancestor- bringing the family into the English Royal house, on the other hand he starved several of my ancestors to death at Corfe. I have much better feelings for his son, Henry III.
my goodness, what an unusual name u have. when i read it i think of drinking swill and then having 2 barf. i too have an unfortunate namesake in the family and have promised myself to never repeat it again. i guess u could say that name will die with me thank god! cheers!
...any relation to the "Boston" Barfingtons?
@@mamiemonrovia7654 ...is it "Weiner" by chance?
@@mjonhouston Ummm... no. thank god 4 small favors
These videos are so well put together, thank you. Kings William, Henry I, II, III, John, and Edward I are some of my great grandfathers. And Many other great grandfathers and mothers were heavily involved all the way through King Richard III then on into the Tudors. I really enjoyed watching all of these videos from you.
My great grandfather’s too.
Mine too....
Mine too 😂
Henry 2 great King little bit of a Hot head
Richard the lion heart good general bad king
John complet disaster although it did lead to the birth of Liberty.
I found it sad there was no mention of Henry II’s older fraternal twin brother Hamelin. So what if he became an Earl by right of his wife Isabelle DeWarenne. Her former husband was Robert Beliol, king of Scotland. Right?
Also quite sad with all the respect and homage of the DeWarennes that they never get mentioned in any history or lore.
Also kinda squirming on the dates of events because resources differ.
Which King John signed the Magna Charta? Henry II’s son? Seems he was called “John Lackland” and learning that his brother Richard the Lionheart took back some of John’s lands until the relationship was repaired.
But the Battle of Hastings was in 1066. Was not the Norman army coming after John lackland?
William DeWarenne 1st Earl of Surrey financed Bill Bastard’s conquest right?
Did not the 2nd Earl of Surrey die in a joust before his son was born?
If Hamelin was born in 1124(ish) Would have made King John his nephew, which Hamelin counseled John to sign the Magna Charta. William DeWarenne 3rd Earl’s seal was one of the first given to the Magna Charta.
Thomas Beckett Archbishop of Canterbury, restored Hamelin’s eyesight.
Were the DeWarennes involved with Becket’s assassination?
Does anyone know of a good resource for the DeWarennes? Starting to think my resources suck.
Actually the Crusades were for a lot longer and much earlier. They weren’t Templars then, they were Hospitallers, and still not much mention of them in any history book.
I understand that Count Geoffrey D’Anjou and King Henry Ist had issue over Count Geoffrey’s first born because he had a tan and can’t possibly be a child of his daughter Matilda.
Wasn’t it Matilda trying to kill Geoffrey?
Why would a mother allow her first born to he passed over the throne? Because Hamelin had a tan, Henry was fair skin.
This caused lots of issue between Geoff and Matilda because Geoffrey accused Matilda of infidelity, which she wasn’t. Actually the dark skin was on Geoffrey’s side - he’s got Iberian, Basque, and Egyptian genes. (Like King George VI).
Excellent post. Thanks for the information.
Hamelin was Henry's illigetimate half brother not his twin
Hey guys, could I use a short 20second clip from this video on my UA-cam? It’s not a monetised channel and it’s not big and I’ll link you guys.
Looking forward to hearing from you
No problem, please do so for Roland too.
Richard the Lionheart may have been a good fighter but an ineffectual king
0:12. Le Mans (birth place of Henry II) is not in Normandy. It was a possession of his father, Geoffroy, comte d'Anjou et du Maine.
Glad you are home safe 😙
Good stuff…thanks
when you are constantly battling attackers it is hard to do much else Richard may have been a great king or not but as stated he never had a chance to do much but defend himself
“Will no one rid me of this meddlesome priest?”
I just stood in the very spot where he was hacked down. Canterbury Cathedral. It was a pretty intense experience.
Thanks!
Thank you!
why do i always get the feeling that a thousand years has been added to our history? from buildings to art. the font doesn't match. the 1 or j or i Infront of let's say 200= 1200-i200-j200 AD don't match the 200 fonts. the first letter or number always looks cramped, like it was added at a later date?
... what?
C'est chez moi : l'Anjou...
Ahhhh...my very fascinating grandpapas.... altho I am betting that a huge chunk of the UK are also descendants.
31:27 is this the final song from everywhere at the end of time?
If someone reads this comment let me know it sounds very similar
I've always heard it was Matilda who was declared successor. Where does it say that it was her son? Just curious. Ì couldn't find it.
Matilda and her cousin Stephen fought over the English throne for years, plunging the country into chaos. Neither could gain enough ground to solidify their rule. So in a bid to bring peace to the realm, Stephen agreed to bypass his own son and declared Matilda's son Henry his heir. Matilda was satisfied with that.
The final assessment to account for Richard's high reputation does not mention the comparisons of the Time at home, between the usurping villainy of John & the comparative fairness & decency of Richard. A Main Matter ignored here, is - Robin Hood! Whether he lived or not - Robin's championing of the undertrodden Saxons (by John) & their longing for the return of the rightful King, Richard established the high repute of Richard from times long past, bedding it into English myth, legend - History alike!
Richard was a genocidal tyrant during the Crusades. He cost his subjects dear in the exactions to fund his egocentric warmongering. England was mortgaged to the hilt to fund his follies. He cared not for the suffering he caused. He once gave away England to the Pope. Bearing the epithet "Lionheart" as ascribed by sycophantic clerics. Sir Walter Scott's Ivanhoe's good king Richard is pure fantasy. As if the Saxon's, still labouring under the Norman yoke to this very day, would ever surrender (a French word) to live in harmony with the kleptocratic Normans.
Most men of that day remain anonymous to us today too.
So, if I'm a Langevin..
It should be spelled
L' Angevin?!
What are the chances I'm related? Gonna have to look in to that.
Can we have one on henry the 1st
Yeah Matilda & Geoffrey! 👍 Ugh piggy Steven!! 😏
Frederick Barbarossa and King Henry look like brothers in the paintings.
Henry II has always felt to me like one of those guys who lived the entire real medieval king life, from beginning to end; shame about the crap successors.
This inspired house of dragons I think
I think Henry II and recently Elizabeth II were both great statesmen but not so good making personal decisions.
Edit: oh, I also wanted to add, Eleanor was told her whole life how beautiful and wonderful she was and she got two kings to marry her, one who was 10 years younger than her. So when K. Henry II got bored with herafter 8 kuds and started cheating on her and ignoring her, is it really any surprise that she ended up siding with her frustrated son who wanted some land of his own?
3:04
Wait
If Stephen of Blois was Adela of Normandy's son,he was William's GRANDSON, not nephew
He ws Henry I's nephew
or am i high?
France took a long time to become an actual country as did Germany.
Sorry, but I don't quite agree with your comparison with Germany. France had been a powerful kingdom since King Clovis and according to the feodal system, there was only One king, the king of France : all the other lords, dukes etc, how powerful they were , were his vassals and had to obey him and be loyal to him. William the Conqueror was the duke of Normandy but also the vassal of the king of France. It's a previous King of France who gave the territory of Normandy to Rollo, a Viking. The Vikings ( becoming the Normans in Normandy) married the local women and became peasants.
The union of German principalities dates back to the 19 th century. Napoleon helped the process of this union !
@Cebuano Yes, I agree with you.
@@cebuano6150 William is related neither to Clovis, nor to Charlemagne, according to his family tree. He is not related neither to the Capetians.
My ancestors so thank you :)
I bet Terrance and Phillip of Canada can trace their ancestry back to Roland the Farter.
Stephen was William the Conquerer’s nephew, but William’s daughter was Stephen’s mother? 😳 That’s some funky lineage. 😂 I think you mean GRANDSON.
These are well done! Henry 2nd began to separate church from state, as shld be. He also had judges hear the complaints and settle their territory disputes. But next, Saladin took over the Holy land and while King Richard was away burning and fighting and saving his sister which if roles were reversed, their brother,the uueducated John whose pastime was hunting and joining the French king whose fighting for any cause was few to none. Horrible king, placing all Henry's conquests in jeopardy while Richard was away fighting a righteous cause, includ saving wife n sister. Unrest wld continue on and on, until a great parliament was formed. AND THE MADE PEACE IN FRANCE ONCE IN FOR ALL. England needed a leader, it was becoming its own, including Wales n Ireland. And to be allowed to trade freely in France. Their treaties changed after 20 yrs with thousands of men and dollars lost each time. A great trade deal wld have been more progressive than the forcing a foreign overseer on France. Edward 3rd never learned from history!
I am trying to repair the braincells I destroyed watching the JD v. AH trial.
Good luck.
family battles at its worst, most my ancestors lol
My ancestors on my mother’s side of the family and through to Henry 7th Tudor and Charles the first of England
Henry should have designated powers and lands to his sons
👍👍
Who you looking at Stephen?
Rewarded with a manor house and 30 acres of land for being a great flatulist. I'd have been a very wealthy man back in those days.
Roland the Farter... My brothers were born way after a time where their skills would have won them a place in the Court... Sigh.. jump, whistle, fart....
🤣
Ck3 brought me here 😂
Henry or Henri?
King Richard did what he had to do. He set things right. The fact that he forgave his brother shows that his lion's heart had space for love and forgiveness.
He even forgave the man that shot him with the crossbow during that last siege of his, and gave him a bag of gold. But once King Richard had died they took that same man and skinned him alive before killing him.
Eliminating two young princes of the blood was not setting things right. Then to go and kill Hastings was outrageous. He was a tyrant and egomaniac. That’s why karma worked his ass over. He reigned 3 short years full of strife. And when Tudor arrived he was toast
@@linda12006 that's the third King Richard you are talking about, Richard the Lion Heart lived 200 years before or more.
@@albertenriquecrowleybeastc217 yes. I’m speaking of the third. The lionheart was not so swiftly either. I think he only spend 1 or 2 years actually in England. Mostly aquatine, his mothers land
And what was Eleanor? A potted plant? She was a clever, beautiful and wealthy woman who brought Henry enormous territory in France and great fortune. She had traveled as far as Jerusalem with her first husband, the French King. She gave Henry sons to inherit and rule as well as daughters to make politically advantageous marriages. Only to see her husband take a young, beautiful mistress, Alise, to replace her in his heart and bed. Henry owed her much. Another woman men try to keep out of history.
So I woke up to this paused at the end and I read King John as Elton John… He’s more of a queen, but still royalty 😂
The most capable king named Richard in English history was Richard III, despite the impression created by the Tudors and their most enduring propagandist, William Shakespeare. Richard I and Richard II were terrible monarchs
although Richard I was a great military commander
Absolutely but even though he was a competent administrator, usurping the throne and making your young nepthews disappear was never going to be popular. Also, Henry VII gained huge popularity by marrying Elizabeth of York.
@@goddessofwar8916
Unfortunately, that is not the main duty of a King. Richard never really ruled...without the diplomacy and direction of The Greatest Knight, William, the Marshall, Richard I would have had no kingly reputation at all !
@@AC-ze1nh
He did not " usurp " the throne; he was invited and sworn in by Council election. You are quoting part of the Tudor propaganda, which tried to rewrite history, but some dated historical records were secreted and found later. Henry VII was the usurper, by the meaning of the word!! He was a fearful, sly murderer, killing everyone with even the least blood relationship to the legal royal line through Edward III .
Deep within the matrix humans are quite mentally disturbed, lol.
Hmm. Louis VII was allowed an annulment because he wasn’t getting male heirs, but Henry VIII couldn’t get one for the same reason? Well that’s fair 🙄.
Politics. Catherine's parents were a symbolic marriage representing Castile and Aragon. Catherine as the product of that union represented all the good that the union would produce for Spain. The Pope needed Spain as an ally. Spain was solidly Roman Catholic exceeding only the Normans in religiosity. If he approved the annulment he could lose an important ally .England itself needed the marriage to remain intact. Catherine was a descendant of John of Gaunt son of Edward III. Catherine brought legitimacy to the Tudors whose claim to the throne was shakier. An heir would solidify the Tudor claim to the throne of England because of Catherine's ancestry back to the Angevin kings. Obviously Henry had no concern for this and wanted only a son since there was no rule about regnant queens. Parliament of course had to make a decision on that point after the death of Edward VI. Mary would help renew relations with Spain and the Vatican. A marriage with Philippe II of Spain would unite England to Spain if they were to have an heir. England would have a Spanish king and return to the Catholic fold.
All of this could only take place if Henry remained married to Catherine and Mary as the legitimate monarch of England.
@@robertcuminale1212 Let's not forget that the co-ruling King of Spain at the time, Charles, was also the Holy Roman Emperor, Charles V. Charles was nephew to Catherine of Aragon. The Pope needed Charles's support to protect the papal territories in wars against France and against the protestantism gaining ground in parts of the Empire. The Pope's hands were in part tied as he needed to avoid doing anything which might offend.
Actually, it was more complicated than that. It was Elinor / Aliénor of Aquitaine who first wanted an annulment !! Something unheard of in history ! It was a queen who wanted to repudiate her king ! The pretext was that they were fourth cousins- a fact that was already known. During the royal couple 's disastrous Crusade to Jerusalem, rumour had it that Elinor had had an affair with her own uncle Raymond, Prince of Antioche. Anyway, the queen was sick and tired of her husband. The pope and the King of France 's closest councillor managed to have Louis VII and Elinor reconciled. A second daughter was born of their brief reconciliation. However, three years later, this time, it's the king who wanted to have an annulment on the same pretext and maybe because the state of their relationship was so bad that producing a male heir would have been difficult. It is supposed that the queen had already in mind to marry Henry duke of Normandy aka Henri , comte d'Anjou et duc de Normandie ! Geoffroy , her future brother-in-law , wanted to kidnap and marry her but fortunately for the ex-queen of France and future queen of England, it was Henry who married her. They were in love and probably lovers. Elinor was a very beautiful woman although she was 11 years older than him.
By the way, Henry was still the vassal of the King of France, even though he was the king of England. He was born in France ( Le Mans ) and died in France ( Château Chinon). This awkward situation eventually led to the one hundred years 'war with the one of the Kings of England 's claim to inherit the throne of France by birthright.
Three centuries separate the two cases. In 300 years, the perception of marriage and the power of the church had changed. The comparison between the two situations can only be used to emphasize the evolution of mentalities.
Ah, yes a "hunting accident". Very good.
