@johnhaydu2627 Not until after the Renaissance. White people started taking over during the 1700s.

Take for instance all of the Graco Romans statues were polycromy meaning they were painted. White supremacists destroyed most of the statues of black Romans and Greeks, and painted over all the rest of the statues with white paint. So why paint the statues white if they were white people? Look up Agnes Dunbar she is the niece of Robert the Bruce who was a black Scottish king. Read her bio and notice her nickname.

Great documentary but you made a slight mistake towards the end. König is the German word for King, Kaiser is the word for Emperor. Korol is the Russian word for King, Czar for Emperor. Both Kaiser and Czar are derived from Caesar, but the Caesars were Emperors, as opposed to Kings. 54:30

Did you notice that all the pinces named Carloman on the Carolingian dinasty never got the oportunity to reign? They always died young or were defeated by their sibilings.

In my younger days I had the great fortune to have studied in Aachen. I still consider it my second home. I was only in my teens then so didn’t fully grasp the historical significance of that beautiful city so it was lovely to learn about it from this video. The Aachener Dom is one of the most beautiful buildings I’ve ever seen.

Its very interesting that this great man was born in such backwater place. Also, he was born into the period which was just few generations far from the fall of Roman Empire. I would like to see how these people lived there because I can imagine that the south was pretty much still advanced and the tribes who were originally attacking Roman Empire were still finding the way how things are working.

That’s a huge transition for Charlemagne to go from the Father of The Holy Roman Empire to the podcast with Andrew Schultz 📈🙌

One of the most powerful emperors in medieval age, as i visited france in 2015. A son of France ♥🔥 and one of my fav and respected characters. He created a empire and made him as a holy roman emperor the first of many rulers who ruled that. His empire survives many challenges until 1806. One of the powerful rulers. Vive la france. My fav country. Known as a father of 🌍🌎 because of he created a vast empire and united most of Europe since the roman empire. Brilliant and thnk you for this video. He is one of the best rulers ever to rule Europe,most of Italy and also the many Gallic and germanic tribes. Again thnk you for these content.He also helped the Carolingian renaissance and the revival of western church with that. Also he is a main ancestor of dynasties who ruled and rules Europe 🌍. But also his some actions led the schism between westen and eastern empires as well as the western and orthodox churches . Because he didn't think irene of athens as a legitimate ruler and he himself declared as a roman emperor and 👑 himself. best wishes aijaz from pakistan

The Fasces never weilded as much power. its all interesting indeed. then there was this too - September 8-11, 9 AD, when an alliance of Germanic peoples ambushed three Roman legions led by Publius Quinctilius Varus and their auxiliaries. The alliance was led by Arminius, a Germanic officer of Varus's auxilia. now this war is upon the west as a whole. very interesting ...

Apparently Charlemagne invented Aachen’s Razor. That’s the simplest explanation anyway

What is most interesting is that a successor kingdom to Rome was born in the very ares of their defeated enemies that united Europe under Christianity to stand against an encroaching Islamic empire

Hold up. Now the title duke had been around since Roman times, although the used the title in different contexts, but, iirc, it was Charlemage who set up the system of counts. Later, the title became hereditary but in Carolingian, it was an appointed position.
