There's something about the artstyle of your maps and characters that just brings me warm feelings. Probably because you were the first historical battle channel I started following on KZfaq so your content is just instant dopamine. Just goes to show that your quality has never dwindled!

BAZBATTLES!!!

It always kills me how the later roman empire was like a nonstop play of Spartacus. “I’m the Roman Emperor!” “No, I’m the Roman Emperor!”

You were the first content creator of animated battles and history i ever found. Youre still my Favorite. Never Stop. THank you.

BazBattles will always be my favorite blocks fighting history series. Please keep making them.

I always missed Baz making a video on this. Here it is. Bravo !

Keep them coming baz. You are respected and your works is sought after. Thankyou for the content.

I echo the words of others. You were the first historical animated channel I followed, and the experience is beyond captivating. Never stop, please do more content. Still waiting for the WW2 stories for the siege of Malta 🇲🇹 🙏❤️

Good to see you back at it again

I'm simple guy. If I see BazBattles video, I click

Both the history and your documentaries are incredible. Keep up the great work!

I was missing the Roman/Medieval battles. Love the videos!

The legend that is Baz has returned !!!!

You have no idea how fast I responded to my notification of your new video. Please don’t stop.

Alaric and stilicho was in this battle two important people who going to play big big roles in the upcoming years. One trying to carve out a nation state for his people and the other trying to save a dying empire.

Great that the crew behind Bazbattles has picked up speed in publishing new historical videos since this video was published. Fantastic, concise and informative as always! 🎉 🎉🎉

I love how you always find the more obscure battles of history but no less important

This channel is unique, absolutely brilliant content!

Imagine this guy posting once a week that would be a blessing . I learned so much more in here than my history professor

Baz is back with a battle from antiquity! Yes!

It's always a good day when there's a new BazBattles video.

By winning this battle, the Roman Empire began to decline farther into fall worse than Adrianople had shouldered upon it's dwindling legions. Awe-inspiring videos from the legends Balthasar and Dan Boud of the BazBattles channel!

Delightful work! Thank you for the wonderful description on this pivotal battle

THE RETURN OF THE KING! Missed you, Baz

This was the first channel I started watching with my son that has the historic and ancient battles.

It wouldn't be a BazBattles video without some king or emperor dying of illness. Great vid, keep up the good work.

The King returns! Love all your work and sending you my best wishes

Love the history, animation and narration of your videos. Truly great stuff!

I LOVE BAZ BATTLES

Good to see you back in action! Love your videos!!

BazBattles is one of my favorite channels, keep it up!

Man, finaly new video, love you

Great to have you back! Eugenius went bye bye and Arbogast checked out. What would have happened had Theodosius lived and ruled the empire for another decade or two? Really interesting thoughts. Cool thing about this battle is how diverse and mechanized both sides were in their makeup. Theodosius army being composed of so many groups reminds me of the Punic Wars, where great armies had numerous people's/mercenaries holding varying roles.

I missed this Channel so much!

So happy you are posting again!! Absolutely love your videos.

Jeez this is by far the most pleasant voice I've heard. Puts me asleep, insta subscribed.

Baz never disappoints. Both educational and awesome

Welcome back legend.

A battle that gave some stability to an Empire that was already about to fall and only delayed the inevitable; Excellent video, they have a charm that cannot be seen on other similar channels.

So good to see you guys make more videos

So glad to have you back!

OMG this battle happened in SLOVENIA!!! I live near Emona - Ljubljana

Praise the lord! He's back!

I love your videos so much! Thank you for your uploads

Late Roman history is just sad with its constant petty civil wars. Especially when you learn of earlier history, when even when struck with disaster after disaster, they were able to best enemies threatening their very existence, e.g., the Senones and the Carthaginians.

Gotta love that good old Roman Empire definition of "trusted".

He back

Sweet, Baz!

The channel that got me into historical content on the internet. All the love for bazbattles.

Always good to see a video from Baz Battles! Interesting topics & very good maps & production. Thank you.

Omfg!!!1! You're back!

I really appreciate the Fog Of War effect.

Ah yes, an event before Total War: Atilla, love it.

Thank you, please keep up the great work! 🙏❤

Your videos are getting better

Lovely to see you back

Amazing videos as always, thank you Baz!

THE KING!

I've missed you so much

The wind is called Burja here and sometimes it is so heavy that it is turning trucks and vans on the road through that region.

YAY! You're back!

As a recommendation, I'd suggest an episode about the 'Slag bij Nieuwpoort' (Battle of Nieuwpoort) in the Netherlands anno 1600. Background: This battle was during the Dutch Resistance (formally known as the 80 Year Old War), in which the Dietsers (now Dutch people) fought a war which began on 1568, and lasted until 1648, with a 12 year period of peace in between. The Dutch finally seceded from the Spanish king in 1568, forcing the Holy Roman Empire to acknowledge de Republiek der Zeven Verenigde Nederlanden as a sovereign state. The Slag Bij Nieuwpoort began, when the Verenigde Nederlanden tried to turn the tide of the war, by being more aggressive towards the Spaniards. This idea came from Regentes Johan van Oldenbarneveldt, member of the Staten-Generaal (basically the Dutch government at the time). They wanted to attack the coastal city of Duinkerke, deep in enemies territory. An army of 9.000 soldiers, 2500 cavalry units, 6 cannons and provisions was carried over sea in about 1300 ships, lead by stadtholder Maurits of Oranje. He was the son of Willem van Oranje, a famous hero in the Netherlands who was shot dead 16 years prior. Once the army of Maurits was on land, it had great difficulty advancing. They had small victories, but the march itself was painfully slow and tedious due to supply issues (there were only small villages which were sparsely populated). It didn't help that they were in enemy territory, so the local populace wasn't very friendly towards the army. Lastly, the small amount of roads weren't built for such a massive army, halting the advancement even more. On July 1th, south of Oostende, Maurits was fed up bumbling about on the roads and marshes, and decided to march further on the beaches. This advancement of a giant army marching in enemy territory, was of course noticed by the enemy. Albrecht van Oostenrijk, governor of the Spanish part of the Netherlands, was already amassing an army to combat Maurits van Oranje from all around the Spanish Netherlands. It's said that some units marched 40km a day, to cut off the Dutch army. Albrecht was able to amass 6.000 troops, 1200 cavalry and 8 cannons. On the night of july 1th, Maurits had received word that the city of Oldenburg was retaken by the Spaniards. Fearing that his army might be surrounded, he sent out a small army to halt the advancement of the oncoming Spanish army, not knowing the massive force that Albrecht was leading. The Dutch soldiers weren't a match against the Spaniards and either died, or fled to the sea or to save areas under control by Maurits. Thanks to Albrecht not immediately attacking Maurits, rather advancing more carefully, Maurits had the time to tactically place his army on the beach and the dunes. He was hoping that the loose sand on the beach would slow down any charges made by Albrecht, which would put Maurits in a good, defensive position. Not only that: Maurits made sure that Albrecht's forces were facing the sun, making sure that the enemy army was blinded by the bright sun that day, and also battling the strong headwind, blowing sand in the faces of the Spanish soldiers. This would work out brilliantly for Maurits. The Battle: The Slag om Nieuwpoort began juli 2th, during the afternoon. Maurit's cavalry charged the Spanish army, but didn't succeed, as the Spaniards drove back the cavalry, which caused panic in the backline of Maurit's army, because the supply carts were about to fall into enemies hands. The Spanish army became overconfident, driving back the Dutch forces in the dunes. This brash counterattack cost a lot of energy for the Spanish army, as they had to plough through the loose sand which swept in their eyes, while being blinded by the sun. With the Spanish army on the brink of being exhausted, Maurit's decided to perform a counter attack with his remaining cavalry. This attack succeeded, routing the Spanish soldiers. This brought panic to the Spanish footsoldiers, while calming the nerves of the Dutch soldiers. During this Dutch cavalry charge, Albrecht van Oostenrijk got wounded and had to leave the battlefield. This marked the battle as victorious for Maurits van Oranje. This victory turned out to be a Phyrric one, as Maurits wasn't able to conquer the city of Duinkerke. Aside from a victory for the Republic and showing a sign of Maurit's tactical genius, it didn't amount to much aside from losing a thousand soldiers on the beach. Johan van Oldenbarneveldt was angry at Maurits for failing to take Duinkerke and their relationship worsened. In 1619, Maurits was granted dictatorial authorization, basically making him the head of the army and giving him a carte blanche to act, as the Republiek was losing the war against the Spaniards. He had Johan van Oldenbarneveldt killed due to treason, which marked the end of the rule of the Regenten in de Republiek, and marked the age of the Stadhouders.
