Next episode??

Confused? Why, not a bit. You?

What's with the Franks suffering disease every time they came into Italy?

Extremely eventful years. We are fortunate to live in so peaceful times (yes I know about the war in Ukraine)

3:30 Gundahars death is what inspired the Richard Wagner Opera, the Ring of the Nibelung. this defeat was so enourmous, that an Icelandic saga, written in the 14th century, mentions it.

This guy implies that the Visigoths are distant cousins of the Ostrogoths? Before you make such a claim you need to explain what actual grammatical difference is between Visigoth and Ostrogoth No mention of the Slavs in this tale? I wonder why. You've mentioned the Germans, Illyrian, Huns, etc,etc but not a single mention of the Slavs. Considering the Slavs inhabited a huge area of your map it's interesting why you've made no mention about them. Western Hegemony is the reason why...

In some point i like how jews annihilate muslim population in gaza and nearby.anatolya and near east territories were inhabited by christians,muslims did the same with them without reason,whats happening now with them

Yes in Minho there are much more Blondes. Portuguese Phenotype The physical anthropology of the Portuguese people. Blonde hair is the type of hair corresponding to an unequal sexual figure, where female individuals imply a greater emphasis on the opposite of the male sex. This hair class accounts for 17.75% of males and 23.23% of females. The average percentage of blonde hair in the general population is therefore 20%. Blondes exist all over the country. But from a general point of view, the entire mountainous region of the north of the Tagus, with the exception of the coast and the mouth of the Douro, is where the population is significantly blonde. The southern provinces - Extremadura, Alentejo and Algarve, are generally comparatively micrometric. By districts, the northern provinces are significantly blonde in the districts of Viseu, Guarda, Braga, Bragança and Viana do Castelo. In the southern and coastal region of the country, small differences are noted in Faro, Lisbon, Santarém, Coimbra, Évora, Portalegre and Beja, respectively. In short, the country is heterogeneous when it comes to the distribution of blonde hair. On the Beirão plateau, in the mountains of Trás-os-Montes and mainland Minho, is where the population is significantly blonde. In the coastal regions and plains of Alentejo there is already a relatively small percentage of this type of hair. The adjacent islands still show an equally vulgar percentage, where only the district of Angra do Heroísmo has another excess of blonde hair.

I've never heard of these guys, thanks for the info! This is all so fascinating!! ⚔️

The CIA is to blame

Wait....can we blame TRUMP

Why so many peoples from North Europe went to Iberia? GERMANIC FAMINES -Famines affected all Germany areas for many times. In a regular way existed great famines especially from 1315/17 until the worst famine of 1845/48. The Volga Germans experienced periodic famines brought about by both natural and man-made causes. FAMINES IN NORTH EUROPE IN MEDIEVAL AGE Famines caused by crop failures and poor crop years were an ever present danger in medieval Europe. It was often not possible to relieve a famine in one area by importing grain from another area as the difficulty of overland transportation caused the price of grain to double for each 50 miles it was transported. One study concluded that famines in Europe occurred on an average every 20 years between the years 750 and 950. The principal causes were extreme weather and climatic anomalies which reduced agriculture production. Warfare was not found to be a major cause of famine. A study of crop failures in Winchester, England from 1232 to 1349 found that harvest failure occurred an average of every 12 years for wheat and every 8 years for barley and oats. Localized famine may have occurred in years in which one or more crops failed. Weather was again identified as the chief cause. Climatic change may have played a part as the Little Ice Age may have begun between 1275 and 1300 with a consequent shortening of the growing season. Warfare was apparently responsible for a major famine in Hungary from 1243 to 1245. These were the years in the aftermath of the Mongol invasion and widespread destruction. Twenty to fifty percent of the population of Hungary is estimated to have died of hunger and war. The best known and most extensive famine of the Middle Ages was the Great Famine of 1315-1317 (which actually persisted to 1322) that affected 30 million people in northern Europe, of whom five to ten percent died. The famine came near the end of three centuries of growth in population and prosperity. The causes were "severe winters and rainy springs, summers and falls." Yields of crops fell by one-third or one-fourth and draft animals died in large numbers. The Black Death of 1347-1352 was more lethal, but the Great Famine was the worst natural catastrophe of the later Middle Ages. - In Iberia, there was no such famines as in North Europe, because the weather was much better, warm temperature , long day light, mild winters, without the frozens, ice, snow and hard cold winds of the North and because of the Arab Agricultural Revolution, the Arab Muslim rulers of much of Al Andalus (8th through the 15th centuries) introduced or popularized a large number of new crops and new agricultural technology into the Iberian peninsula (Spain and Portugal). The crops introduced by the Arabs included sugar cane, rice, hard wheat (durum), citrus, cotton, and figs. Many of these crops required sophisticated methods of irrigation, water management, and "agricultural technologies such as crop rotation, management of pests, and fertilizing crops by natural means." During many famines in North Europe, Portugal exported grains, meat, olive oil, wine, sardine and several other products to England and several other European countries who were usually hard affected by these famines.

Prophet? More like good hash

The Portucalensis County existed since 868 AD, but much before that the people and the region was united and fought the Romans as no one else did. The Celts Bracari were described by Roman and Greek writers. If we just consider a country as it is today, so Germany didnt exist before the end of the 19th century.

The sheer amount of information you pack into these videos is astounding! The organization and visuals are top notch! Keep it up and thank you so kindly!!!

Ostrogoti...! Serbian language...!

who,are bulgars,wich had 3 countriens Bulgaria,lost two of them,but the third give slavic alfabet,literacy and old church slavonic(old bulgarian),to many nations?

The Battle of Adrianople on 9 August 378 was Thervingi Goths led by Fritigern VICTORY against the Eastern Roman Empire led by emperor Valens. In January 376 AD, Valens granted asylum from the Hunnic Empire to Sarmatae Iazyges Metanastate in Pannonia II, and to Thervingi Goths and Don Alans in Moesia II, across the Danube and into Roman territory. The Battle of Adrianople has nothing to do with the Ostrogoths. Sorry. The history of Ostrogoths starts after the Hunnic Empire's defeat against the Germanic-Sarmatian alliance in the Battle of Nedao (Orljava tributary of Sava river in today's Croatia, Sarmatians lived around Sava River and Gepids south of Drava River then, they crossed the Danube to escape from Hunnic Empire terror - their territory was mobile then). Start from King of Pannonian Ostrogoths Theodoric the Great (471 - 30 August 526), that is CORRECT. He was the victor against the Huns in 467 AD, against Drava River Gepids, Heruli, Rugii, Suebi, and Sciri in 468 AD in the Battle of Bolia River - Drava (710 km) tributary of Danube, and against Sava (992 km) tributary of Danube Sarmatians in 472 AD, after he was elected as King of Pannonian Ostrogoths. Some scholars characterize him as a Western Roman Emperor in all but name. You ignored Julius Nepos Kingdom of Dalmatia with capital Salona (28 August 475 - 9 May 480) was CONQUERED by King of Pannonian Ostrogoths Theodoric the Great, and not by Odoacer's Kingdom of Italy. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_Nepos#/media/File:Marcellinus_Dalmatia.jpg Kingdom of the Gepids with capital Syrmium (454-567) was DEFEATED by the Kingdom of Ostrogoths and the Kingdom of Lombards but they kept ruling from Syrmium. After the Ostrogoths left Pannonia in 473, the Gepids captured Syrmium. The Battle of Asfeld (probably Roman Cibalia or Vinkovci in today's Croatia) in Pannonia II in 552 AD was the Kingdom of Lombards' VICTORY against the Kingdom of the Gepids, Gepids lost Syrmium. Syrmium with 100,000+ residents was one of four Roman Empire capitals in 294 AD, and the capital of the Praetorian prefecture of Illyricum (347 - 473).

This is a such a comprehensive and evocative piece of work. Bloody well done. Really enjoyed it from start to finish

This is incorrect from the start. The Thervingi were the Goths that destroyed the Roman army at Adrianople, with assistance from Alan and Greuthungi cavalry. They did not come from the Pontic steppes.

For future reference there are no such thing as “Rashiduns” the way there are Umayyads or Abbasids. The latter two are family names, the ruling dynasties of the Umayyad and Abbasid Caliphates. The term “rashidun” simply means “rightly guided” in Arabic, which is the term Sunnis use to describe the first four caliphs after Muhammad. So you could call it the Rashidun Caliphate or Rightly Guided Caliphate, but “Rashiduns” doesn’t really make sense. Also Shia don’t use this term at all, so it may just be safer to go with “Arab Caliphate” or “Arabs” for this period.

What are the Thervings looking for in the territory of Dacia, present-day Romania? The Ostrogothic Goths are the genetic descendants of the ancient Getae, the primordial European race in Europe when others did not exist. they are not of Germanic descent. Ancient Dacia, today called Romania, has the Dacians and the Getae as ancestors. In the II-IV centuries, historical authors changed the name Getae to Goth. Changing a vowel. Get-Got. They are our ancestors and together with the Getae-Goths from the north of the Black Sea, with different names of Ostrogoths, Visigoths, Goths, they migrated to the west and north of Europe and we know what they did in these territories. Alaric was born in Dacia-Romania near the Danube delta. But I don't see ancient Dacia on your maps. From here the Romanian ancestors Dacians and Getae migrated to Europe and gave birth to other nations. Denmark, Sweden, etc. There are many documents and historians from antiquity and the Middle Ages and the Renaissance that explain these unknown histories. Or ignored. Nicolo Zeneo 1515 J, describes their genealogy as I wrote, Jordanes - Getica, about the getae who became Goths, Carolus Lundius the president of the Swedish academy about the ancestors of the getae or called Goths (Zamolxe primus Getarum legislator- 1687) and many others and ancients. Getae and Dacians, the ancestors of Romanians and Romania is ancient Dacia. Unknown or ignored historical truths. There were no Germanic races, genetically speaking.

Theoderic played coy to allow Visigothic power to crash in Gaul under the joint alliance of Franks-Burgundians-Allemanni, but not totally.... Just enough to bring down the ruling house and set himself as tutor of his grandson. In doing so, he sowed the Franks power too close to Italy, allowing their agency to come later and haunt Ostrogoths power in Western Europe, and very own survival in Italy because Constantinople would see to play the Franks card in the back of Ostrogoths. Without this slip, and feigning diplomatic agency with no teeth before Clovis maneuver rounding up Burgundians and Allemanni, the Franks would not have had a chance in Vouille. As it came to happen, once 2 full field armies of Ostrogoths arrived "late" in Provence and Septimania... Burgundians and Franks alliance somehow suddenly disappeared back North with Ostrogoths serious forces fast in their tails. Nobody wanted an open war with the Eastern Imperial master, Theoderic. It was a set-up. Franks power grew up at the advantage of these miscalculations that sabotaged the 2 greatest Gothic kingdoms apart.

Nope .... Belisarius didn't commited massacrers I belive. How said so ? It seems he did the exact opposite.

I always forget about the Suebi.

I really like your videos. Can you make one on the mysterious Heruli?
