Just my opinion/comment😊

I'm just beginning with this video but it has been so enlightening I cannot put it into words. I gotta be honest, as a person who was born in a Central American country, early medieval history is limited if not inexistent in our public education. You grow up with some idea of where are some places located, and most of it is because of biblical readings when you were a child and you were learning how to read, you would even take up the Bible and read it with emotion, and also information from movies, series, books, videogames, sports and other types of media. It was not until last year that I started playing the videogame Crusader Kings 3, that I was exposed to medieval Europe on a deeper level. I understood the difference between the Eastern Roman Empire and Byzantium or the Byzantine Empire. I also realized that Turkey was not in Africa or Arabia and Croatia was closer to the Vatican than I had ever considered it possible. And the more you play this game the more you discover, and the more you crave for knowing what really happened in some of the places you get to interact with, or to know the real story behind one of the characters of the game you find yourself declaring alliances with or warring against. I will keep watching this for sure!

@chuchui666

@@EssentiallyCamada Thanks to you again! You can certainly check it out, it is a strategy game based on creating a dynasty that would last for generations, or using the existing ones and trying to change their historical course. Thanks to this game I've searched for history related to the Carolingians. The earliest start date on the game is 867 so by then the Al-Andalus dominance is already in place, and actually there is an expansion called The Fate of Iberia in which you get to participate, and if you're lucky enough, you can end the Iberian struggle for the peninsula. This game may seem boring for those wanting epic graphics or warfare animations, as the game centers more in administration and strategy, but still is a very good and accurate game, way much more than other medieval games I've played before.

fantastic program very informative and very well made.Thank you so much.

I'm always interested in the logistics of history. For example, how did these large groups of men move around from land to land? How did they find food for their horses, for themselves? Just by raiding villages? There couldn't have always been a village nearby to plunder. How did they keep themselves clean and the men from fighting amongst one another? Clean their clothes, patch up wounds etc....fascinating.

I have always wondered this as well. I know just about every army had certain men jusr for foraging for food, supplies, etc of the lands they were in. But I believe many of the actual military men would also help in foraging. I’m sure they also had some form of supply lines with regular caravan shipments of goods etc they would bring. I know they would do that for the attacking army during a siege of a city. So I assume they would have some form of this supply line at almost all times
