Beautiful presentation. Me? Well, I have a few issues... Martel didn't control all the Frankish lands. He was merely the Mayor of the Palace of one of the Merovingian kings. Odo was loyal to an entirely separate Merovingian King and when the two kings went to war (aka Martel caused the war to expand his territory) the result was Odo declaring independence from all Merovingian rule but specifically any Merovingian rule that had Martel involved in it. This civil war took place at the exact same time as the Visigothic Civil War, and it is very clear Odo sided with the younger brother of the deposed King. It was also clear he was involved in the anti-Roderic alliance that saw the entire Eastern half of the Kingdom (including the Pyrenees region and Visigothic south of France) rebel against him and it was THIS faction who invited the Berber's over. Which then realised they could take and hold large amounts of territory on their own. Which led to an utter panic by the Arab Umayyad ruler of North Africa and so he launched a second invasion to make sure there was no independent Berber state since the Berber's were fairly easy going towards being Muslim. Anyway, the Umayyad controlled expansion into the free Visigothic kingdom was slower and culminated in the fall of Narbonne HOWEVER, given Odo had been fighting on behalf of the Visigoths (plus given Aquataine was formally Visigothic and had not integrated or assimilated into the Frankish kingdoms as seen by differing law codes and above all differing languages), it could argue that the attack on Toulouse was seen by the Umayyads as merely a continuation of the Visigothic campaign. Odo don't forget had immediately sought aid from Martel when the Muslims arrived. Martel refused, as he would rather the land fell to Muslims then it remain in Odo's hands. The victory of Toulouse was, from the Muslims point of view, THE catastrophic defeat. It was horrendous defeat. It was the final moment they or any Muslim invasion force would ever attack Western Europe. The defeat caused Odo to gain the title Odo the Great, a title that stuck in the craw of Charles Martel. We know this because Martel years later took the staggering death toll Odo inflicted upon the Muslims and copied it; literally he claimed the exact same number of dead at the Battle of Tour, conflating the figures so he could stand equal to Odo, the man who between the battle of Toulouse and later Tour had run rings around Martel both diplomatically and on the battlefield. Proof of this? Well the attack on Aquataine by Rahman was not a retaliation for Toulouse. It was caused by the fact Odo had caused a rebellion in the Umayyads territory. Like he had clearly wanted when he got involved in the Visigothic Civil war, Odo wanted to have his territory ally with a friendly territory to his south. That way he could focus his troops against his real enemy- Martel. He did this by forging an alliance with Berber's living in the region (you make a brief mention of this in the video). They would rebel against the Umayyads and hold the territory around the Pyrenees with Odo protecting them from the north, with them doing the same to the south. I know the idea of Muslims and Christians forging an alliance to oppose BOTH the Frank's and the Umayyads utterly destroys the whole 'clash of civilisations' narrative but what can we say? The narrative was a lie anyway. So yeah, this was why Rahman launched his RAID (not an invasion, unlike the previous attack there were no siege engines involved), and it was only facing this force (led by a survivor of the defeat at Toulouse who made sure that his new force didn't repeat the mistakes made by the previous force which gifted Odo his victory) that Odo sought Martel's help again, and as you mention he was refused a second time. Martel's sole motivation was to take Aquataine. It was only Odo's submission that led him to get off his backside. Beyond that, the only counter point I would offer in the battle itself would be Martel's forces were drawn up IN the treeline to help break up the cavalry charges, and Odo and his men were probably on foot when he launched the spoiling raid (Odo was in command of the lightly engaged flank that allowed him do this- and yes Odo won the battle, not Martel another reason why Martel stole the casualty figures from the Battle of Toulouse and claimed them at Tours). This is not a critique of your video by the way. It was awesome and it is clear you (unlike so many) sought Muslim sources of events, but more me trying to place things in their proper complexity. It was never Muslims v Christians. It was always Visigoths v Visigoths v Berber's v Basques v Aquataine v Frank's v Arabs, a shifting geopolitical crucible that took years to settle (if it ever did, as the region's predisposition towards rebellion against the Umayyads was reinforced when it rebelled against the Abbasids on behalf of the Umayyads soon afterwards). Bravo for making this sir.

The move by Oda on the Moorish camp was the most significant part of the battle. Without it the battle would have been a draw mostly, with the decision going to the Hammer, because of the logistical position he maintained, being on his home turf. The fact that the Moorish commander was killed, along with a significant amount of his troops, as a result of Odo's move, gave Charles the clear victory, but, the Moors were still not overwhelmed and destroyed, and they left of their own volition that evening with the Franks not giving chase in the morning and that should tell you all you need to know about this battle.

Main reason for this victory of Charles Martel was his choice of Position (was an Excellent Tactician/commander) where his flanks were covered by forests and river vienne. Leaving Muslim cavalry no room to maneuver. Moreover, Muslims campaign thought this campaign was limited to aquitaine only and they were supposed to retire in winter after capturing some more loot in tours. They had no idea of a frankish army would confront them. So when muslims met a stiff challenge, they thought it best to retire for winter. The loss of commander made sure that the only option left was to retreat as most soldiers were tired and wanted to return.

@vahrheit9996

False, because all the historians of the Ummayyads wrote extensively about the horrible losses of the muslim army whether in person or in weapons and supplies and the victory of The Frank was crushing to the extent that the muslims have never again thought of launching another expedition like that anymore and no other muslim force of that size has ever dared to cross into France again no matter how much they were successful in Spain, instead from that point forward, it was the turn of Christian Conquistadores who started regaining place after another.

Martel was a quick learner and an excellent Tactician and Field commander. He had studied Muslim way of warfare and knew that he needed to cover his flanks with forests/river vienne so that Muslim predominantly cavalry force can't maneuver around and attack from flanks or rear. Odo was defeated exactly by such maneuvering of Muslim cavalry in previous battle. What Muslims missed in this battle was to somehow lure Martel out of his defensible position by feigned retreat or something.

That we fail to realise how risky things are to us, until Ukraine have an absolute and resounding victory. Which should be a "must happen" from our point of view. But... I still watch history content too. And should you happen to do a video on something connected to Ukraine or Kievan Rus I will be sure to share it in our Ukraine news DC group. Maybe some battle with the Mongols? I don't have any specific suggestions on hand. Finally, I see this video about the Battle of Tours was your first upload, already very good quality.

Generally a very good presentation. However, the Umayyad court recorders often embellished the nation's successes excessively. I read an account of the conquest of Malta and the generosity of the invaders to the Maltese. However, I later read an account by a Muslim scholar who described his surprise at how few Maltese men survived the invasion. I have no doubt it is in the interest of the court to present a benign face to conquest so a fellow Muslim observer's account is probably more truthful. Such is the way of politics. And in war, the first casualty is the truth.

Propaganda has always been around. When you look a bit closer at Caesars battles, the enemy numbers are usually blown up by a factor of two or three. When you read about Thermopylae, nobody mentions the roughly 2.000 volunteers from other greek city states and again Persian numbers are wildly overblown by a factor of 10-20. Maybe Muslim writers didn't lie when they thought the conquest of Malta was "civilized". They didn't kill EVERY man and many survivors were probably "only" enslaved. Charlemagne supposedly killed 5.000 Saxon warrios who didn't want to be baptized. If the Saxons had had that many warriors, they probably would have defeated Charles ... Not to mention weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, Bin Laden in Afghanistan and Nazis in Ukraine for some recent "proper propaganda".

And what you calla small raiding party, well that muslim army was so about 30.000 men which I don't call small for that time. We are talking about 732 nd for that time 30 000 men is much! And about battle oif Constantinople are talking about because there are 2, one of 711 till 718 and in that the bulgarians have nothing to do, or the one of 1453 against Mehmet II in 1453 which Constantinopel lost and was also the end of Constantinopel and the Byzantine empire of better what was left of it.

@@patrickdevries6267 no, it didn't. It took a handful of cities from a guy who ONLY ruled about half the kingdom. They were working for a bunch of guys in the OTHER half of the Kingdom who were at war with Roderic. The only change in the plan was Roderic's side just surrendered way faster than anyone thought and the Arabs worried the mercs would set up their own state from from their domination and so THEN invaded. Also Martel didn't save anyone. It was Odo at the battle of Toulouse who stopped the invasion. :)

@@patrickdevries6267 its small. check what constantinople was besieged with...10x the size. if that was not stopped there would be no battle of tours. the arabs would just roll over the rest of europe. spain is a joke - there was obviously nobody really there to defend. the visigoths were a joke.

Excellent presentation.

This is the case for a lot of Europeans, including me, and almost all the American presidents. 😉 This is because Charlemagne had a lot of descendants, with several women , including among the local population, not just limited to the circle of the nobles.

@@johndorilag4129 it is easy to have Charles Martel as ancestry, you just need to find a little noble in your ancestries, and several generations before you have great nobles, then kings, queens, and you reach Charlemagne, then Charles Martel. You can have exchanges between little nobility and bourgeois (they have money ) or other non noble populations .

Charles the Hammer, in this vid, looks like he got a bad hit of acid. "Hello hello hello, is there anybody in there, just nod if you can hear me, Is there anyone home?..."

Plz consider making vids like this but about Spanish war of succession. It desperately needs to be covered.

Looking at the recent mayhem in the streets of Paris, it would seem that the savages won the battle in the end.

Really nice video, gives a cinematic feels of historical event. Just realized how close Tours was to Paris.

It is indeed strange that we French only know this as the Battle of Poitiers... I initially did not know what this video was about... I was also shocked to see how far into France the battle actually was.

@@wrathofatlantis2316 Muslims intended to stay in the limits of Aquitaine and Tours was a part of Aquitaine perhaps. They had no idea that a Frankish army would face them in Aquitaine. It was winter and Muslim soldiers would have retired to their homes after Tour campaign, since they werent used to such cold and lacked appropriate clothes
