Ten Thousand Immortals, in Persian history, core troops in the Achaemenian army, so named because their number of 10,000 was immediately reestablished after every loss. Under the direct leadership of the hazarapat, or commander in chief, the Immortals, who formed the king’s personal bodyguard, consisted primarily of Persians but also included Medes and Elamites. They apparently had special privileges, such as being allowed to take concubines and servants along with them on the march. On coloured glazed bricks and carved reliefs found at the Achaemenian capitals, such as the palace of Darius I at Susa, warriors believed to be Immortals are often represented standing stiffly at attention, each soldier’s wooden spear with its silver blade and pomegranate insignia held upright and resting firmly on his toe. They wore elaborate robes and much gold jewelry. An elite 1,000 of the Immortals were further distinguished by having gold pomegranates on their spears.

Very impressive! The persians "immortals" are very interesting troops. I have somes suggestions about your next video of "legendary war units": I propose the "vieille garde" of Napoleon , the praetorian gard, or the numidian cavalry... Good continuation to you man ;) Greetings

@@LionKing-ew9rm it was always then thousand, but what happens if one of them dies? This: if anyone gets wounded, sick, die, weaker than before, or even retired, they would replace them. With the one of their strongest fighters (and the would be recommended by their commander) after testing their courage, abilities, and skills the would go onto the reserves, and wait till one of them dies or somthing to be able to replace him.

Request- Massillia VS Baktria!👍 I believe this would be a interesting matchup do to the fact that while both factions have hellenic units they also have diversity. Massillia has Celtic units while Baktria has Eastern units. Just think it'd be cool to see that aspect play out on the battlefield😁✌

@@CelahiR88 It's sad that they used a comics book to made the movie. The Spartans did have 300 there but as some of us know, they weren't the only ones that fought there and that made the choice to stand and fight to the bitter end while the rest of the Greeks were retreating. Could, let's say, a Roman legion hold their ground? Give another example if you can.

@@jasonlam8823 That's a shout but can the phalanx deal with the archers in such a way that they will not sustain too many losses before engaging the Immortals? I said "archers" because, from what I've heard, they learned to use the bow alongside using the sword or the spear. Maybe not all of them but some of them must have learned that.

The mind boggles. There were 7000-12000 Greek troops at Thermopylae of which 300 Spartans were present. The Greek barricade at Thermopylae held for a couple of days at the narrow pass. On the third day the Immortals flanked and killed the remaining Greeks and Spartans. The majority of the surviving Greek troops retreated. The 300 Spartans are remembered simply because they stayed behind (though 1100 other Greeks did as well) to hold the fort as long as possible to allow the Greeks to retreat. As it turns out, they couldn't hold the pass long by themselves. Nevertheless, they are romanticized in Greek history as an ideal for the generations. But the Greeks lost at Thermopylae and Xerxes took and sacked Athens. The Persian invasion however would be repulsed a year later.
