The Battle of Manzikert (Malazgirt, Manavazkert) of 1071 was fought between the Byzantine Empire and the new nomadic conquerors from Central Asia - the Seljuk Sultanate. This battle was decisive in changing the ethnic and the religious outlook of Anatolia, and probably was the reason Crusades from Western Europe began.

This battle and the civil war that followed it are some of the most interesting times in all of history. Great video. For anyone interested, The Alexiad by Anna Comnena is a fantastic source for the aftermath of this battle. It's the only recorded instance of a princess writing a history about her own father, the emperor Alexius Komnenus.

But these are all normal things instead of coming up with excuses to losses, one should embrace it. Furthermore during crusades, Seljuks also fought againist Turcopoles and turkish mercanaries so, It is quite normal in wars to stabbed in the back.

He lost the battle because the second army never came back (treachery) and most of his cavarly who suppose to protect the flanks left him in the middle of the battle (treachery #2). Without the treacheries he couldn't lose this battle, just imagine the same battle but with cavarly coming to help the flank and a second army coming propably from the other flank that didn't even need support.

Alp Arsalan was suçh a bad ass Hail to the King baby!!!! But to be fair there were many warriors that I respect on both sides of the field, The Seljuk Cavalry & horse archers (The Varangians, The Cumans are not to be triffeled with and are brave & hardcore as they come) Andronikos Doukas is cowardly peice of shit (although I'm on the Seljuk side) and his retreat off the field of battle is one of the main reasons the Seljuks & Alp took the day, still leaving his Emperor (even with families infighting) he gave his word & broke it & many worriors & his Emperor paid a heavy price for his cowardice.

Khazars:* en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khazars _"The Khazars were a semi-nomadic Turkic people, who created what for its duration was the most powerful polity to emerge from the break-up of the Western Turkic Kaganate..."_ *6.

@علي ياسر "Rumi" (Romiai) refers rather to geography. Once I was thinking like most Turks are Islamized Romans. However this is proven wrong in recent research. Approximately 60% of Turkish population today is actually Turkic. The mistake is historical bias, many authors assumed Turks came to Anatolia after Manzikert, and this was it. 40.000 soldiers (even this was not entirely Turkic) and their families, and decsendants...But this is not the all story. Actually Turkic tribes kept pouring into Anatolia after Manzikert, in waves. One wave in 12.-13. Century, which also brought Kayi tribe (Ottoman dinasty) mixed a huge nomadic Turkic population with already settled Beyliq People (original soldiers of Manzikert under Seljuk Sultan, like Karamanids, Germiyanids, Karesids, Menteshids, Saruhanids, Chandarids etc). Plus, a new and even bigger wave followed in 15'th-16'th Century (Alevid/Kalenderid Shia like Shasuvars, Shahkulus, Shirazids, Ilbeglis, Chepnics, etc.) especially after the fall of Aqqoyunlu and Dulkadir. And must remember many christianized Turkopolic tribes that already settled in Byzantine East, Armenia, Kurdistan, and Hisnqayfa, even before Manzikert. We have even an up to date study which shows how dramatically Greek/Rumi population declined after early Turkish conquest. The population of Anatolia drops from 8 million (in 11'th century) to 5 million (in 14'th century). Thus, entire demography actually changed, and there is no ground to deny that Turkey's modern population (or even late medieval/early modern population) is Turkic in majority.

URM The fall of Constantinople did not kill a millenia civilization or culture, Christianity had already destroyed ancient Greek culture. The Byzantines saw their pagan ancestors as infidels, anything unrelated to Christianity was thrown away. Ironically, it is the Caliphates that preserved ancient Greek knowledge, while Byzantines erased it. When the Ottomans conquered Constantinople and the Byzantine Empire, the people had a horrible culture which only included making frescos. Stop blaming Ottomans for your own misery.

I first learned of this battle reading Julius Norwich excellent history of Byzantium. Diogenes was up against from the start. The theme system had collapsed, having to rely on mercenaries. Having to get a victory no matter what as the chances of raising an army of this size again were probably slim. Tactically 3 mistakes. Splitting your army, always a risky tactic before the age of radio communications. Not scouting the enemies position and strength Relying on one of the Doukas to command the rear guard . Given the Doukas hated him this seems a very stupid decision Also faced a very capable foe. Great video. Factual and unbiased

Seljuk Beg, commander of the Oghuz Army, is said to have been a general of the Khazars. Seljuk´s conversion to Islam came later on. His four sons carried biblical names: Yunus or Yusuf, Israil (Arslan), Mihail and Musa. Mihail´s two sons, Tughril and Chagri, were the principal founders of the Seljuk Empire. The Seljuk generals were excellent military men. The real question is why the Oghuz moved towards the West and the answer might be the quest of easily conquered territories belonging to East Rome.

They migrated primarily because the Kipchaks with whom they were warring for generations were gradually winning the fight and quite possible the Oghuz leadership during the time of Seljuq were incompetent, therefore caused a kind of a civil war.

The History of Michael Attaleiates is a great source on the events after the battle of Manzikert. That contemporary general/historian believed that the corrupted leaders after Romanos Diogenes caused the fall of Asia Minor to the Turks by their repressive policies over the population. Great presendation of the battle guys! Again Congrats!

Can we get more videos on the Seljuqs/Seljuks and the early days of the Ottoman Empire? Watching a series on Netflix, Dirilis Ertugrul and while loosely base don historical events, it's sparked immense curiosity for the events leading up to the breakup of the Caliphates, the rise of the Seljuks and the Mongol interregnum (as I call it) before the rise of the Ottoman Empire.

Seljuk made the way for Ottomans, who ever obey Seljuks also did for Ottomans, many people think Turks are newborn nation. Turks had 16 empires in the passed and a lot countries. Seljuks and Ottomans are only last 2 of the 16 empires. Not less important ofc

Middle East history is often taught (especially in the middle east, ironically, for political reason) as one big stream of events under a general muslim guidance. Thus, we lost a lot of the subtility of what was going on.
