Will there be a part 2 ? There’s so much worthy knigths you didn’t mention yet : Count Roland, William the Conqueror or Joan of Arc for instance.

I bet Götz von Berlinchingen inspired Guts from Berserk lol

One water spring with monument near the fortress of Golubac bears the name of Zawisza the Black. Supposedly he was executed on that spot by the Turks.

Very nice stuff. As an interesting fact, I can add that in Poland we have a popular adage: "Można na nim polegać, tak jak na Zawiszy" ("You can rely on him like you can rely on Zawisza".) . This means someone you can always rely on, faithful to his word, willing to help and support.

i reckon in the next video is Jeanne d'Arc? would make sense ;)

Hell yea!

Very nice

Ah shiet, here we go again 🔥🙏⚔

*Resisting not to install CK2 again*

In ancient Greek there were 8 types of love, only one referring to sexual love. Whenever modern "historians" translate any of the 8 distinct words for love in English they just use love, mostly to push their own propaganda. There was nothing sexual between the "male lovers" of the Band of Thebes. in fact such an act between citizens(which they were) was illegal, and the receiving party was criminalized, potentially exiled or executed. The "lover" suffix refers to the sacred oaths that a couple undertakes that they need to protect each other in battle, and if one dies in battle, the other needs to die too in the same battle. This is a common battle brother oath that many military societies in the ancient world had, and the specifics of what a battle brother meant then, which was different than simply being a comrade in the same unit. It's basically "historians" taking advantage of the ignorance of modern people to ancient Greek language. In the whole of ancient Greek literature that we have, gay sexual behavior appears only twice, and neither time is consensual or referred to as love.

Deus Vault! ✝️

I think we can all agree that the Military Order of Christ is the best of them all and could kick the Teutonic Order's holy posteriors any holy day. JNRJ 4 Life!

Thery interesting that in the list of deadliest units we have immortals but not spartans who held them for 3 days before being betrayed, and eagle and jaguar warriors know for their bravery while defeated by a lot smaller spanish forces mostly because of everyone run away.

You did not mention The Order of the Dragon? I understand that it existed far later in history, but they fought the Turks on many occasions.

Good job 👍 Great video ❤

One of my ancestors was a teutonic knight, I just thought that was cool

War elephants were mastred by Indians

Order of the Hatchet sounds pretty f*ckin badass

great video! but how can you talk about hoplites without talking about the most elite soldiers of all time.. the Spartan warriors

do one on the swiss guard now

Hakkapeliittas should be in the next one

Every RTS player knows these by heart!

Video game ahh Info. Go watch djpeachcoblers last video. Eagle and jaguar warriors didn’t dress like tekken characters.

A lot of these groups are regular soldiers, not elite units. Hoplites for example, were just the generic name for the most common type of infantry of the ancient Greek city states equipped with a spear and a shield.

We need persian cataphracts or asvaran cavalry

Santiago cross 🇪🇸

What about the order of the dragon that fought the ottomans?

Ok lets see...Gallowglass would destroy the Immortals...match blow for blow any Viking (where some of these guys came from), probably have some difficulty with the Praetorians until they got close. Smash Eagle and Jaguar Warriors like toilet paper simply based on the difference in the size of the men (Gallowglass were big dudes, ask the English) and in armor and weapons. And the order of assassins well, shouldn't be on this list.

Hypaspistai does not "literally" mean foot companions. It means shield bearers. Pezhetairoi means foot companions.

Winged hussar were elite nobles with being undefeated for 100 years

berserkers with wolf theme are called ulfserker :)

Iranian tribes Sarmatians and alans asbaran (proto - knights) Warriors took down west rome and moved in to uk they were allies of germanic tribes goth and vandals

Saladin beating them to pulp shows that islam is the only one true religion

You played to much AOE

Hello!! Spanish person here, I come from a family wich looks like we served in some orders, it is such an honor and privilege to be able to wear such legacy, christ is king and my blood is here to serve

Shinobi weren’t a special class, they were just Samurai and rarely ever attempted assassination. The word ninja and the idea of Ninjutsu don’t show up in any Japanese records and were mostly created in pop culture. The kusarigama was never recorded being used as any kind of weapon, but rather as a farming tool. In general, shinobi didn’t really exist like how they’re made up to be.

I thought this was bannerlord

The Creed of Assassins must watch video to become a member 😅

You forgot Waffen SS

some Mahuts came all the way from India to train the Elephants!. some participated in many Battles around the Mediterranean.

You should do the gendarmes if you plan on doing another part.

nubia is in egypt

I was told that the Beserkers were using schrooms to get high, and then would attack like they were demons, since pain wasnt a big deal.

The roots of Varangian Guard are nordic, but with the time they became more and more russian/slavic. Its more like a russian Guard in Byzantine service

Ordem de Aviz and Ordem de Cristo, Portugal Caralho! Deus Vult Fratres!

where china ?
