If anyone is confused the reason why England isn't called Saxland is because of the Angles (Engles). Ironically, in the Celtic languages like Irish, England is actually called Saxonland. The reason why the Saxons are always mentioned is because the West Saxons of Wessex put up the bulk of the resistance against the Vikings.

[@turmuthoer]

The Angle kingdoms of Mercia and Northumbria had traditionally been the most powerful Anglo-Saxon realms prior to the arrival of the Danes, so naturally they had the bigger impact on the formation of an English identity.

Some advice : instead of landing ships one by one you could try to outstratch them and land tgem all at once, but first send a force to engage the enemy. This way the enemy troops will have to focus theur archers on the vanguard and the rest of your ships that are stretched on a great piece of land. Great video man.

Some background dialogue on the battle and some added on going tactical discription during the battle would be helpful. The first charge shows Vikings attacking with their shields on their backs. What are the archers firing at. Where are they on the battle field. There's no separation of the fighting groups to prevent friendly fire by archers. Needs some upgrading.

never conquered anything, they took some land later reconquered by edward, his sister and son. they only took the throne very later and by luck, cnut at the final battle against edmund had a mercian noble in edmunds army betray edmund in the battle which cost them the fight, cnut killed said mercian noble for betraying edmund, his name was eadric streyona. The danes never conquered england, alfreds dynasty saved it and created it by 927 under athelstan the first king of the English. same with the normans, william may of been king but he never ruled the english.

Saxons... Were they originally Vikings and then moved to England? Or were they native to England? Various total war games are full of charms! fantasy, rome, troy, three kingdoms... Your various attempts are great!

[@playoffmodesp2536]

Saxons were neither. Saxons along with Angles, Francs, and Frisians were germanic tribes living in the current Benelux/germany. Saxons and Angles alongside Jutes made the migration to great britain and took the briton's lands. Afterwards the same was done to them to a certain extent by Vikings.

[@noahtylerpritchett2682]

The Saxons descend from Men and woman from the Angles, Jutes, Saxons and Frisians, Anglo-Saxons. Though they were admixed with native men and women. In any case the Anglo-Saxons raided Roman Britain like pirates, than started conquering and settling, Christianizing than mixing. Similar to later Vikings. Only difference is, historians don't like repeating terms.

[@c.norbertneumann4986]

Saxons originally lived in the area which is today north-west Germany. A part of their tribe migrated from there to England from the midst of the fifth century AD onwards, after the Roman army was withdrawn from the province Britannia and the civil Roman administration there broke down. A lore tells that a Romano-Britannic warlord whose name was Vortigern called the Saxons for help against the Picts who attacked the former Roman province from the north. But it is unclear whether this is just a legend. Saxon pirates already carried out raids from the sea on the south-eastern Channel coast in the fourth century AD which was therefore fortified and called "litus Saxonicus" (Saxon shore) by the Romans. The Saxon immigration thus already might have started in the fourth century. The name litus Saxonicus probably meant "coast settled by the Saxons". However, the Vikings arrived much later in England. They first raided the monastery of Lindisfarne on the Northumbrian coast on 8 June 793 AD. By the way, "Viking" does not mean an ethnicity. In the Old Norse language, a "Viking" means a warrior who set sail to participate in raids on foreign coasts.

[@noahtylerpritchett2682]

@@c.norbertneumann4986 Vortigern called for the Jutes not the Saxons. Saxons came on their own.

[@c.norbertneumann4986]

@@noahtylerpritchett2682 As I wrote above, the lore of Vortigern is probably legendary, so we don't know for sure what really happened. Vortigern's name is first explicitly mentioned in Bede Venerabilis' "Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum" that was written in about AD 731 - almost 300 years after the alleged arrival of the Saxons. There are other authors before the year 1,000 AD who claim that Hengist and Horsa (the - legendary - leaders of the Germanic warriors Vortigern had called for help) were Saxons, e.g. Nennius in his "Historia Brittonum" (around 828 AD). (So did Geoffrey of Monmouth in his "Historia Regum Britanniae".) Nennius writes that Vortigern allowed the Saxons to settle in Britain in return of the hand of Hengist's daughter.

It would deff be a pice of work and I know everyone is now commenting “ideas” to do. And you’ve already done this master piece . But it would be cool to see this same thing you’ve already done but instead of the Viking all land in one area, Make them settle but by bit in areas out of sight. Showing them all focused on one area, as the Vikings freely land in other parts with no battle and then all come on both sides and as the Anglo saxons long and hard fight, barley win by the skin on their teeth. As the battle concludes and the men finally get a break they all look around and try to get back to the leader to kinda celebrate . And see all the Vikings around them. Could also add in reinforcements for the Saxons. Would make it a lot longer tho.

The vast majority of Vikings did not wear chain mail as shown in this video, just like in other European countries, only the nobles had it, for a Viking or Saxon infantry soldier to wear chain mail he would have to take it from a dead enemy.
