We are going backwards not forwards!

Illyrian it means "they are free" in albanian and theres other words too

This subject is very interesting. I've heard that during the Moroccan (Saadian) conquest of The Songhai Empire (West Africa) in the 16th century, the leaders of the army were essentially Spanish mercenaries.

I knew my hispanic ass wasn't crazy, I onew hydrodynamics was a word after all. I've been using it for years unsure if I was even making sense.😂😂😂

I've always been fascinated by the history of North Africa and especially Moroccan/Andalusian history and I find this subject very interesting. Thanks!

Gold is Gold

Wow a big KZbin channel actually calling out Israel

The Star of David predates all the info shown on the vid. Ancient archaeological findings show this. Islam steals from Christianity and Judaism anyways.

Ik ben Willem die Zwijger...

Something about this narration is wrong but im not sure what exactly

Jack Sparrow: "We must fight, to run away"

12:30 This wasn't just killing off the population. Jan Pieterszoon Coen took the leader of the Bandanese to a VOC fort and hacked him to death with a katana in front of all the VOC merchants and staff. One write in a diary how gruesome it was, but at least they would have full control of the nutmeg trade. Coen killed 14.000 of the 15.000 Bandanese and put the remaining 1.000 to work as slaves on the plantations. The VOC was one of the most violent companies and had committed several genocides, before the Dutch government took over and kept the VOC methods.

Now I know where Battletech got the term Lance from

MacArthur is the stereotypical overrated General, while his career was long spanning from ww1 to Korea his success are few and far between, his service in ww1 is noteworthy since he did fight with his men at the front which allowed his career to advance swiftly during the interwar years but his ww2 service is a tale of blunder after blunder. His defense of the Philippines borders on incompetence but was saved by his reputation and the fact that there was no chance of a victory anyway, his conduct in the south pacific is remembered for careless use of Australian troops, he would recommend not 1 but 2 bloody assaults on New Britain and Palau that could have been avoided, he pursued glory rather than logic during the liberation of the Philippines which while it ended in a nice feel good moment for the US having liberated the Philippines. He would later be fired during the Korean war for escalating the war and bringing China into the mix, overshadowing his one major success at Inchon. He does not deserve to be remembered as a great general but rather by his nickname "dugout Dug" for using the blood of his troops to pad out his career.

I'm no expert but wouldn't the pikeman be better on the outside of the formation? Can someone explain?

That just sound like war crimes but with extra step

top!

TRACIAN BULGARIAN CIVILIZATION

Stop propaganda

So its basically Roman guerilla warfare

@KingsandGenerals you are confusing all the people! Greek and Hellen means the same thing! I am greek and i know! Greek is the english translation of the greek word hellen! There was the north greek macedonians and the south greeks (the rest). You must use the word greek only because you are confusing the people! Macedonians were the north greeks and Athenians and Spartans the south Greeks! You make it like there is a deference to the words Greek and Hellen! It means exactly the same thing! It is just a translation from english to Greek.

Awesome, thanks!

bro their is a mistake hussain's brother abbas was able to pic water from the river but have martyr very bravery but can,t reach water to the camp and they all fight with 3 days of thirst

White terrorism.

IT'S A WICKED WAY TO FIGHT, BUT KEEP THIS KIND OF THING COMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Scot’s running the noob box 😂

It is a common strategy when attacking into an area to use soldiers who live far from the area to be attacked. Take for example the Soviet Union's invasion of Finland in the Winter War. Stalin and his NKVD lackeys didn't want to use Soviet soldiers who live nearby to attack Finland for fear that the local Soviet soldiers would sympathize with the Finns. The Soviet Union wound up using soldiers from far away. The problem was that those Soviet soldiers attacking Finland lived in the southern part of the Soviet Union where it was much warmer and had fewer forests. They didn't know how to live and fight in the frozen hellhole that were Finland's forests during the winter of 1939-40. As a result, Soviet divisions were mauled or even destroyed even though the Soviets badly outnumbered and outgunned the Finns. I can't come up with a logical reason as to why Kings and Generals don't think that the Romans could have done something similar to what the Soviets did during the Winter War.

People have to ask what triggered the war then they will get an answer to why the fighting started and who’s to blame

Even the flag is not theirs

Chinese propaganda😂😂😂 why any ruler will bow to another ruler whose whole trade depends on you seriously. Do your research well atleast.

I very much enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up

12:44 "Emerging problems in Italy" ... Seems Germany spent too much resources protecting Italy that may have weakened its offensive in the eastern front. Everyone should be thankful to Italy for having helped the allies win the war.

Surprisingly? NO. JU 87 WAS DESIGNED TO BE ACCURATE Thats why its lacking in other departments "Quite slow" "limited range" Those are 2 characteristics a dive bomber does NOT need if its used on its habitat: with air superiority secured and near enemy linew

Very islamic... like Solomon being a myth of the jews.😅

Why Donbas is "ocupied Donbas" but Crimea isn't "ocupied Crimea"?

Going to send the map at the start to Emperor Tigerstar for his Horrible map series

ancient Albanian building-Petra

I wouldn't call destroying tunnels where insurgents are hiding too be "scorched earth." That's just typical military operation to destroy fortifications.

In other words, heretics.

33:42 actually Henry VI died under mysterious circumstances. We don’t know how he died, and we don’t know if he was executed, albeit he was most likely smothered in his sleep.

Me as Portuguese: I will fake I never have been the first 😂

Free Palestine and stop genocide

Thank you to K&G for making this video. 🇬🇧❤️🇬🇷

From this video, it seems Italy's history was much more influenced by what is now modern Germany than I originally thought. I thought the Alps would have been more of a buffer between the two lands. In his 1959 book, "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich," American journalist William L. Shirer (who was in Europe during WWII and had access to newly declassified records after the war), held that Germany was essentially on a pre-defined course to authoritarianism throughout its history. This take has been heavily criticized by historians in subsequent decades. This is part of the debate around the German "Sonderweg thesis," which supposed that Germany was on a special course throughout world history unique to other nations. The Sonderweg thesis is now more generally disfavored by historians. How is this relevant to the video? *The rebirth of republicanism in Italy mainly seems to be because the monarchs of the Holy Roman Empire did not want to be physically present in Italy to directly rule it, so local rule sprung up in the absence of physical imperial presence.* Additionally, within the borders of the HRE, many nobles and towns were given quite broad and flexible rights relative to other medieval kingdoms. Different emperors of the HRE had varying amounts of power during its existence, at points almost becoming figurehead monarchs. I would criticize Shirer by saying that, if Germany culminated in authoritarianism under the Nazis, it was in order to hold the fragmented German principalities together around the figure of the Kaiser. *Germany was not predisposed to be authoritarian. Rather, it was decentralized for most of its history.* Germany's modern authoritarianism is much like the Spanish crown of Castile being highly centralized from the 16th-19th centuries in order to maintain Castile's control over the other formerly independent kingdoms of Iberia. *Additionally, medieval Italy still had enough of the foundations of ancient Roman republicanism and infrastructure left to have a basis from which to rebuild during the medieval period.* At various points, such as when the Byzantines controlled southern Italy, it is as if the Byzantines picked up where the Western Roman emperors had left off. Indeed, Justinian I considered his forces to be merely restoring Roman imperial control in Italy under Belisarios. Germanic invaders' influence in Italy seems to be much less permanent than it was in Britain, France, Spain, etc., with the exception of place names like Lombardy reflecting the influence of the Lombards/Longobards. *What does seem to be the result of historical circumstance is Italy's loose division into an urbanized, industrialized north and a rural, more impoverished south.* I can see how this came to be based not only upon climate, but also because of the borders of powers that ruled the area. All of this is my hot take. I would appreciate discussion in the replies. *Thanks to K&G for another excellent video for us former history majors and other enthusiasts.*
