Great video K&G, as always! It would be great to see such snapshots of history from other years as well. A small correction for Hungary: the first christian king of Hungary was St. Stephen I (the first), not the second, for obvious reasons, crowned in the year 1000. One of the national holidays of Hungary the upcoming August 20 celebrations commemorate this event. Stephen still had "pagan" name, Vajk. The conversion of Hungary to Christianity was a bloody affair leading to brutal civil wars but it ultimately contributed to the preservation of the kingdom, unlike other steppe-warrior conquerors that didn't make this move, like the Huns or Avars.

As for norman's culture in 1066, at this point in history, they had strictly nothing in common with danes or norses of the "vikings" age (language, religion, architecture, way of life, warfare, social organisation, everything in Normandy was radically different from Scandinavia but common with other french duchies/counties) Fun fact : Harold Godwinson was far more "viking" than William, through his danish mother (William's mother was simply a local commoner).

Search on internet for document known as "Pacta conventa", where Hungarian king granted all previous rights and privilegies to Croatian noblemen. And Pavao Šubić, in year 1300, was ban of Croatia and master of Bosna (ban Hrvatske i gospodar Bosne) with its own metall-coined money; he brought new dinasty of Anjou from Napoli (Naples, Napulj) to the Hungarian throne. Also, Croatian Parliament elected independently in january 1527 in Cetingrad Ferdinand von Habsburg as a new king (there is existing document with this decision) , opposite to Hungarians who elected Johannes de Zapolia (Ivan Zapolja) for king. Croatian Parliament and autonomy was untill the 1918. But, after king Aleksandar Karađorđević was killed in 1934, regent Pavle understood that he had to make an agreement with Croats (Sporazum Cvetković-Maček) in 1939 (banovina Hrvatska within Kingdom of Jugoslavija). And so, while all Srbija was under Turkish Osmanlic goverment (15th to 19th century), Croatia had its own Parliament and autonomous rights. Many castles from northern Croatia built by Croatian noblemen (as Trakošćan, Veliki Tabor and so on) wittnes about prosperity and culture. Croats and Polaks are only two Slavic people with renaissance and baroque literature (Marko Marulić Marulus, the father of Croatian literature /1450-1527/, epic "Judita"; Ivan Gundulić, epic "Osman" and so on ...)

This was a great video. Quite informative. Maybe you could do a series of smaller video's about what was going on in various parts of the world in 1066. It could be really good and informative. But what I would really like to see is your next video on the Imjin War. My compliments to all those who made this video a realty.

Unusual to see the County of Portucale - from which Portugal was born - displayed as part of the Kingdom of Galicia. In fact, that's correct, but we are so used to associate the County under the Kingdom of León that this seems (almost) odd.

I am no Hungarian expert, but the I am sure that the FIRST Hungarian king was called Stephen I, rather than Stephen II. It should be logical inasmuch as Stephen is a Christian name notwithstanding that the Hungarian language nowise roots from the Latin.

[@mertkekevi3515]

Maybe Stephen 1 was not a king but a duke?

[@mertkekevi3515]

@@Goratrix66 ahah I know, I checked wiki afterwards, but it was a good guess wasnt it?

[@sztallone415]

You are right, Stephen I. was our first truly Christian ruler, who declared the conversion of the country, upgrading his title to king from grand-prince. And yes, it's his Christian name, he was called Vajk originally. I think they meant to say first, but made a mistake. But it's great to see that we are mentioned in this video, and that others are interested in our history.

[@sectorgovernor]

And the name Stephen is the English version too, the Hungarian form is István.

[@sectorgovernor]

@@mertkekevi3515 He was 'Fejedelem' what cant be translated to English, hence he is called 'Grand Prince', but in reality this title was closer to a Khagan than to a Prince.

No mention of what was going on in the steppes? Missed opportunity.

[@Leivve]

They did mention the steppes. There just wasn't much to talk about, since the Cuman effectively dominated it, and were the cause of all the conflict between the pechenegs (who were also mentioned) and the Romans, and the other steppe peoples getting pushed out.

1066 really was the precipice of the modern world. Before it, Anglo Saxons still ruled England, half of Spain and Sicily were Muslim, the Romans were still one of the world’s great powers, and the Turks had not quite broken through. After, England became England, Spain slowly became Spain, the Latin west established superiority over the orthodox east leading to the rise of Western Europe, the Romans’ terminal decline finally began, the Turks became a world power. A really, really fascinating time. Confusing, but extremely rewarding, to learn about. Great video and thanks so much!
