Embora seja verdade que tenhamos ganho algumas batalhas na defensiva, os nossos inimigos não eram militarmente obsoletos, temos o caso da guerra da restauração em que muitos dos soldados portugueses nem armadura tinham e grande parte das batalhas travadas contra os castelhanos (militarmente superiores e mais bem equipados) foi na ofensiva. Casos menores foram aquando as invasões francesas, nem exército tínhamos e só resolvemos a coisa com ajuda dos ingleses e da coragem do povo português

This is for @s Novem may learn something. Men i don't think you know us you must be Brasilian or something, if you are, i recomend to watch Imperios AD channel from youtube a Brasilian Teacher speaking neutrally of history, and second France sent 2.000 French heavy cavalary don't know if you heared that before, or if was just the 400 English Longbowman Still 7.600 vs near 31.000 is a very big difference. Do you know why? Franks always tried to tell they had the best cavalry in all Medieval Europe, but it was because they were well trained and equipped as large numbers. What Castillian and French didn't bother was that our cavalry specially the "Order of Christ" were the descendents of the old Templar order that all Europe including the pope Except Portugal persued some centuries earlier and the portuguese had passed training through generations of knights. Some respect before responding irracionally, you call us thieves of what? gold? From Brasil? only 1/5 of the gold came to Portugal to pay the expenses of investments, and Brasil didn't yet existed as nation, thieves of africans? know that Africa still today keep slavery from warfare and on that time they weren't different they sold slaves from their defeated enemies just to buy guns and spices from the portuguese as a small nation we controlled our empire mostly from aliances with natives and the portuguese ex-colonies still have natives living today they are descendants of allied tribes and many of those volluneered to join mercenary bandeirantes to atack their rival tribes to sell them to gain more power for themselves. 1500 tribes isnt the same pacifist tribes as today many were canibals and didnt care who they atacked what stopped many from being slaved was cristianism that forbidden cristians of being slaves in a cristian country

To clarify, Brites, the breadmaker woman from Aljubarrota killed the spanish men not with a digging shovel, but with a large wooden paddle for making bread, similar to what is used nowadays to handle pizzas in large ovens. Because of the portuguese word being "pá" for both utensils, this minor mixup is completely understandable. Great video, learned a lot, even though we discuss this battle in school, we don't really go into tactical details.

BazBattles don't worry. It's a small mistake due to "mistranslation". Even though that story is a myth I saw a story in Aljubarrota telling an alternative story. Upon spaniards entering her bakery looking for soldiers or trying to flee after battle (this part is unknown) she told them to enter an oven that fitted a few. She closed the hatch (that can be locked from the outside) then she then lighted up some wood and managed to stick it inside by small openings (used to heat up the oven) like that she cooked the soldiers inside that could not exit due the hatch was closed. Honestly I believe more this story.

Nuno Alvares was a tactical genius, in all his battles he was hugely outnumbered (one time even 7:1) and was always able to win massively. He’s main trait was to carefully chose the battleground with the most tactical advantages and then entice the enemy to attack, such as here in Aljubarrota.

Ayla Soares Dont spread historical garbage innacuracies, that "rule" was a mere union of two crowns (due to succession issues once again) that was vastly supported by most of the portuguese nobleman and burguesy. The Iberion Union was held for 60 years, during that time Portugal and Spain were diferent countries with diferent language, laws, currency, etc. But since the Union was under a spanish kings comand of course we served the spanish interests (including waging war against our english alies). That said, the moment Filipe III of Portugal (Filipe IV of Spain) decided to remove all the status that held portuguese independence (such has having diferent laws, etc ,etc) and try to make Portugal a province of Spain, a rebellion broke out and once again the Spanish were defeated and we left the Union. Hope you liked the history lesson.

Green Tuga ahem... ok, se achas que não sei isso estás muito enganado. Se leres o que digo é que os filipes governaram portugal por uns anos. Nao espalhei "historical garbage inaccuracies" coisa nenhuma. Ja agora queres ter uma conversa decente, nao uses termos como esses. Fazem-te parecer intitulado, e eu levei esse comentario de uma maneira muito negativa, embora nao ache que foi esse o teu intento. A verdade é que os filipes eram nossos reis, mesmo que as cortes tivessem o poder real. Vais me dizer que teriamos perdido todas as colônias que perdemos nessa altura, se o rei de portugal se preocupasse com elas? Nao, nao as perderiamos. Mas como o rei era espanhol... Dá-me lá mais lições de história se achas que não conheço a historia do meu país.

Sabendo tu de história (coisa que presumi que não porque disseste que tivemos 80 anos sob "domínio espanhol" quando a união ibérica foram 60 anos) ainda mais grave se torna. É uma coisa completamente diferente estar sob o domínio de ESPANHA ou estar sob o domínio de um Rei espanhol. Estar sob o domínio de Espanha implicaria adoptarmos a mesma lingua, as mesmas leis, sermos regidos pelas mesmas cortes e partilharmos a mesma moeda, coisa que nunca aconteceu. De facto, sendo o Rei espanhol obviamente que serviamos os interesses de Espanha, mas não passava de um união entre 2 Reinos DIFERENTES. É mais grave dizeres que Portugal nessa altura era dominado por Espanha que dizeres que, por exemplo, a Escócia é dominada por Inglaterra.

You mean John, John and John? Their brothers Joao, Xuan, Giovani and Sean are coming too, I heard from a reliable source there below. So I can tell that the brothers Ivanhoe, Jean, Johann, Hans,Yannis and Ivan are coming also a bit later, their father Johannes gave his permission. They just need to blance their accounts before they can come out to play, father insisted. And after their northern brothers get rid of a few Vikings, Jan, Jon and Johan will join too. Finally, I can tell from here Finland, who's on the other end of Europe, and where all the European fashions always come a bit late, that we can only send you there Juha, Juhani, Hannes, Hannu, Joni, Jouni, Jonne, Janne, Jani, Jaani, Jukka and Jussi. And that's only because their mother Johanna is really angry with them. She said their sisters are enough for keeping the house, namely Jonna, Janna, Jaana, Janina, Janine, Niina, Nina and Ninni. Yeah, Johannes and Johanna have been quite busy. Picked some colourful variations for their kid's names. Like John. Just don't tell grandpa Johanan about this. After burying grandma Hanna, he's been easily upset. Says he's mixing the grandchildren's names. Let's not shock him now.

Around 20 years ago or so, I read an Arab source from the 10th century which praised the Franks as tough warriors, but the author then said that a single Gallician is equal to 10 Franks! I'm sure he was referring to foot-soldiers, mainly. Those tough Portuguese were among the descendants of these tough Gallicians. From the late Middle Ages till the Peninsular War, Portuguese infantrymen and mariners were among the most skilled warriors of their time.

lopazio Portugal was established as a County in 868 and as a Kingdom in 1139 while Spain was established in 1492. Why do people always say Spain is Portugal's big brother? Just because I'm 22 and my 17 year old brother happens to be taller and wider than me, that automatically means he's my big brother? Big brother has the same meaning as Older brother.

You should! But remember, independence got a high price .. I will say you are lucky that you have only one single enemy because of your unique location. Although, even I really don't count them as such for Spaniard. Both nations have almost the same language, the only differences were developed upon getting rid of Arabs which is merely 600 years in span. If Portugal did have a third enemy, Spain will be your best and only ally that you can count on!

just 2 minor mistakes... during the 1st Castillan invasion, Castillan forces took the city of Santarém, which would serve as a Castillan outpost inside portuguese territory garrisoned by part of the army that had sieged Lisbon in the 1st invasion and was a strongly defended position that even the Portuguese didn't dare to attack just yet... when the 2nd invasion began, king Juan I of Castilla entered Portugal through Trancoso, passing by Coimbra en route to Santarém to rendezvous with the other Castillan forces to reinforce it's numbers before attempting another attack on Lisbon, but the Portuguese army managed do force the Castillan army to move more to the west of it's original route, and eventually, in Aljubarrota, the Portuguese now saw a more favorable site to stop the invaders, Juan I decided to go around them to bypass the portuguese army and rush straight towards Santarém, but seeing that if he didn't defeat the portuguese on that hill then, he'd have to deal with both the garrison in Lisbon and an entire army harassing his army's rear guard, so he decided to accept the challenge from King João I and his loyal Constable. Another details that failed there were the fact that portuguese made obstacles, trenches and traps, forced the castillan forces not only to slow down their advance, but also move through a very narrow corridor, that even caused many casualties on the Castillan just from soldiers being trampled or crushed by their own comrades, and there was an attempt by the Castillans to flank Portuguese positions by attacking and surrounding it's supplies carriages located on the rear of the Portuguese lines, but were surprisingly defeated by the tenacious effort of the Portuguese guards

Os espanhois nunca quiseram lutar ali, tentaram passar e forçar os portugueses a segui-los, e assim abandonar o monte. Nós e os Ingleses provocá-mo-los constantemente com escaramuças e projecteis e a cavalaria francesa atacou o que forçou os espanhóis a lutar ali. Isto está tudo explicado no museu de interpretação da batalha de Aljubarrota. E já agora, a formação esta completamente errada, mais parece a batalha de Agincourt que a de Aljubarrota.. Para os curiosos, o centro da nossa linha era "falso", com uma meia lua de infantaria pesada em segunda linha para simular uma rotura na linha que atraiu os espanhóis para o centro da mesma o que quando as nossas alas avançaram, resultou no total cerco do exercito espanhol. A tática do quadrado é tuguesa antes de ser inglesa ;) Mas isso não interessa aos anglos contar..

A few things that weren't mentioned here: 1 - The soon-to-be-deceased king authorized his daughter's marriage under a signed agreement that the throne could not be claimed Jure uxoris, and that the first male son of the union would inherit the throne of Portugal, but relinquish his claim to the throne of Castille (which would go to the second born), thus keeping both realms separate. After the king's death, however, the Queen Regent declared that treaty null and void, thus starting the sucession war, hence the nickname "Leonor the treacherous". 2 - The video makes it seem as if the king was behind the army movements, when in reality it was the Constable (Nuno Álvares Pereira) who was leading the army, and arguably the greatest military leader the country has ever had. In particular, he used the square tactic to face a 5 times superior army on equal terms, hundreds of years before Wellington. Also, the "pits" described here were not there by accident, but had been deliberately digged and concealed prior to battle, trapping the main charging force of the enemy. Those two moves, both product of the Constable's mind, were essentially what won the battle. Other than that, awesome video!

Another emotional moment was during the siege of Lisbon. The Yong Condestable Nuno Alvares Pereira, making the guerrilla war beyond the Castilian fleet and army, set signal fires in the hight of the Palmela Castle, south side of the Tagus river, to being seen in Lisbon, to keep the resistence there, as a signal of hold the fight because we are here. A myth and a legend, the man.

Similarly, during the French invasions in the XIX century, Portugal was able to keep Its independence thanks to the help of the English under the Treaty of Windsor. The first time a Napoleonic army was defeated was in Portugal, by an Anglo-Portuguese army under the command of Lord Wellington, the hero of Waterloo...

@@ftr1453 True, but the French forces were second-line troops, who had originally been raised for internal policing and garrison duty in Prussia. I humbly submit the Battle of Maida, 4th July 1806, in southern Italy as the first defeat of a Napoleonic force, led by Jean Reynier, by a British corps under John Stuart. The French at this battle were of rather sterner stuff, including two battalions each of the 1st and 23rd Légère, one of the 42nd de Ligne, and four squadrons of the 9th Chasseurs à Cheval.

The idea of making the north reinforced by ditches was precisely to make the castillian army attack from the south which, given it was a less steep but longer climb, it had a lot more hidden ditches and other counter-measures. That plus not having to cross a creek completely fooled the castillians. Simple, brilliant and effective.

Can you look into doing the Siege of Tenochtitlan? Because the Aztecs did like building walls it was was not a traditional siege but more like many skirmishes getting close to the city with each victory. These skirmishes took place on the water and earthwork bridges as Tenochtitlan was located on an island in the middle of a lake. The conquistadors and allies had to also build 13 full size brigantines in order to gain superiority on the water. Lets also not forget how insanely large the armies where with 500,000 men in total fighting during the Siege of Tenochtitlan. If you need sources just ask and ill pull them up for information on the battle.

Exactly. It was stuff like what you mentioned that makes the war of conquest in the Americas so unique. Also the aztec weapons and armor where amazing. The aztec armor was tightly woven out of cotton and other materials and worked much like the European gambeson, except it was much more effective in battle. So effective in fact that ALL of the Conquistadors shed their metal breastplate and gambeson for the Aztec woven armor. Also the main melee weapon of the aztecs, the macuahuitl, hand an obsidian edge that would rarely break and was sharper than a razor. Here is one quote from a Conquistador about the effectiveness of the weapon. "One Indian at a single stroke cut open the whole neck of Cristóbal de Olid’s horse, killing the horse. The Indian on the other side slashed at the second horseman and the blow cut through the horse’s pastern, whereupon this horse also fell dead."

His name was éder. Became a portuguese god. Some say this isnt true , some say he was a time traveller from euro 2016 , all we know his: E FOI O ÉDER QUE OS FODEU!!!

I'm portuguese and a great fan of your videos. however, in this video you could have talked about the Square Tecnic (in portuguede "tatica do quadrado") used by the portugueses and that was one of the major reasons for their success.

Ed Knowz Experts claim that ther was no such thing as a Square Tactic... They claim that the portuguese front line opened up out of fear from the strong french push, but then, the portuguese general order them to close on them. And after they closed on the french nobleman, something happened which is also a big fail in this video: a lot of french nobleman from the first cavalry charge were made prisioners on the back of the portuguese lines. But then, in order for the portuguese to resist to the second spanish push, D. Nuno Alvares Pereiro order his men to kill the French prisioners that were imprisioned in the back which was not something normal at medieval battles (nobleman prisioners means huge ransoms to be paid). This was one of the most bloody battles of this period . The portuguese chased the fleing spanish army and it is said that the rivers became red from all the blood. Thousands of spanish soldiers and nobleman were killed and it had such an impact on the Spanish Kingdom that the King issued a TWO YEARS mourning period... This battle was key to portuguese history as it repelled the Spanish from trying to invade again, making way for the Portuguese Age of Exploration and Discoveries (an effort that took place with the same courage and violent/bloody mentality as in a Aljubarrota, nobleman knights became Ship Captains ) which gave Portugal a place on the Human History.

@@miguellemos4669 Você fala como se os feitos de Nun'Alvares Pereira fossem dispensáveis. O Santo Condestável não se limitou a vencer aquela que é provavelmente a maior e derradeira batalha da nossa história, venceu também a Batalha dos Atoleiros, que foi a primeira vez na península Ibérica, que um exército(terrestre) vence uma cavalaria pesada. Os portugueses contavam com 1500 homens enquanto que os Castelhanos contavam com mais de 5000, não foi registada nenhuma baixa para o exército português. Vence também em solo castelhano a Batalha de Valverde, que foi considerada como um milagre devido aos números inferiores dos portugueses(11mil para 39mil) e das perdas significativas que vinham a ter e que por isso tinham já dada a Batalha como perdida, até que o futuro Santo começa a orar a Deus pacatamente abstendo-se totalmente do ambiente de guerra e quando termina, dá ordens espontâneas que lhe dão a inesperada vitória. A partir daí os Castelhanos nunca mais lhe cederam luta em campo aberto. E foi devido à sua genialidade, coragem e lealdade que os Castelhanos em 1411 finalmente reconhecem a Independência de Portugal. Falamos de uma época de crise dinástica em Portugal, uma época em que o país se construía ao poucos, uma Era frágil e inexperiente para os nossos antepassados. Foram os mercenários ingleses que trouxeram algum conhecimento e experiência, mas foi o Santo que determinou o rumo da nossa história. No meio disto tudo ainda se envolveu na Conquista de Ceuta em 1415, tento sido uma das peças fundamentais. Se mais não fez foi porque não teve oportunidade para tal, enquanto isso Afonso de Albuquerque nasceu já numa época próspera e bem estabelecida, quer militarmente quer em termos diplomatas. E isso deve-se a Nun'Alvares Pereira. Ninguém lhe tira o mérito a Afonso de Albuquerque, a Gualdim Paes e outros comandantes, generais, soldados, marinheiros e estrategas militares, mas o Santo Condestável é tido como o súpero por vários motivos que determinaram a nossa história.

Aljuba is a Moorish garment that was also used by Spanish Christians. It consisted of a kind of buttoned, waist-hugging dress that fell in the form of a knee-length skirt.

Well, since most portuguese center-southern towns/villages/cities' names have arabic roots, it was likely to be named by arabs during their presence in Portugal :)

"Protector of the realm, King of the Andals, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, First of His Name." Btw attack started with charge of heavy cavalry, uphill, onto prepared defenders, obstacles, traps and spikes? All total war players now are collectively facepalming.

Robert Tauzer its not the first time that a battle like that happened. Se the battle of Courtrai some 40 yrs earlyer than this one, for example. Also later battles like Agincourt happened like that due to the selfishness and the stuborness of the knights

Spaniard here. The heavy cavarly charge is the most common "strategy" done in Middle Age. Heavy Cavalry was made up by noblemans from the Kingdom. It was the same through all Europe, France, Germany/Austria/HRE, England, etc etc It was a matter of honor, and they had to be the first ones to start the battle. Latter on, we realized it, and we created Tercios, that used long pikes to counter that typical medieval thing. Un saludo a todos :D

The portuguese commander probably had been a student of ancient battles as he employed a typical Hannibal strategy of displaying his forces in square formation but with a fake weak center line of infantry. This was crucial to make the spaniard commanders believe they could easily break their center with a heavy cav charge, in reality once the cav reached the center they were enclosed by pikes and since they running uphill their charge wasn't strong enough to break the defensive lines. It seems stupid but they were tricked into making that mistake.

By the way I think there's so much material in history to be used to make tons of movies or TV series. There is no need of creating fictional worlds like in GoT.
