Sevatar Also, superior organization can allow you to win out against looters (and they tend to be very disorganized). But neither superior weaponry nor organization count as "talking with them." I think in many cases, like after Hurricane Katrina, looters are people who let their id take over and lose rational though. I don't think they are either insane nor corrupted, at least not permanently. They don't realize how deluded they were until they return to normal civilization. That's the way I see it.

All this historical looting makes me feel slightly better about how I play in Medieval total war.

Not really. They were almost all sinners that went on the crusade in hopes to not die and be taken to hell or whatnot. Sure, there were probably some 'Christians' in there, but a lot of people back then never had the time to travel all the way to the city and listen to preaching so as to learn the religion they were in, and Bibles weren't exactly mass produced, the ideals were just passed down from man to man and they all assumed it was right. Some got added, some taken away, and generally skewed from the main belief. The rest were taught very little, so they did what they knew best: fight.

Of course, he also said that ideally, there should be as little bloodshed as possible in a battle, and if there wasn't enough to feed an army even after a battle, to politely ask local leaders for support. He also said to calculate out how much supplies an army would need and bring them along before they leave, something these guys clearly didn't bother to do.

Jedibob5 They couldn't. Later-era Byzantium was constantly stretched to the very limit and beyond in terms of their military and economic strength. To do anything about those lunatics they would have had to recall troops from borders under constant assault by actually _organized_ and well-equipped enemies. They couldn't hire mercenaries...their coffers were not just empty, they actually held significant amounts of _negative_ money: They had lots and lots of debt. Oh, and hiring mercs with the promise of plunder doesn't really work if the fighting is going on inside your own territory. By pulling in forces from elsewhere they could have taken the crusader mobs out, but not without weakening themselves in the areas that were actually critical to the survival of what remained of their empire.

This entire thing feels like a Monty Python movie.

***** For both Christians and Muslims, God is much more all-encompassing rather than just being a Sun God. Both then and now, the Christian and Muslim God is the God of everything. But yes, this was a play by a Pope looking to validate and secure his own position by creating a campaign that would unite all of Christianity against a common enemy that he sold on the premise that you could commit violent and otherwise sinful atrocities without risking damnation, and in fact spun it around to where those atrocities were considered redeeming acts when, under any other premise, they would be condemning.

6:59 "because of course it did" - best line of the entire extra history series, regardless of topic!

This is by far one of the most entertaining video series I discovered on www this week! From IRAN

The pics that accompany this one are the best yet. Absolutely hilarious for such a terribly tragic story.

These are really fantastic videos. I can't tell you how much they have done to help get my little ones excited about history and learning in general, for that matter. I love the crusades series so far (They don't come up enough). We've been learning together so much more than usual on this one.

Thank you for this. Fascinating stuff!

These are fantastic thank you man!

The first crusade is more hilarious than I though. XD

Geez, this sounds like a really bad D&D campaign.

Sounds like a fun campaign

I keep trying to rewatch this for context and clarity, yet every time I just walk away a little more confused😂😂

Homeless people randomly looting, pillaging and killing everything that breathes air? Are you sure you aren't describing my World of Warcraft character?

For some strange reason, this reminds me of my Dragon Age: Origins playthrough. Maybe it's the constant pillaging.

I love Romanticism, but a part of it, the infatuation and idealization of Medieval Europe's peasantry, seems very miss guided, and makes me feel that modernity (as disparity filled as it can be) is real progress for humanity.

Bounsingonbongos1 I'd agree with that to a point; we're still very easily goaded by ideologues and seldom, if ever, glimpse the bigger picture-- even when it's staring at us on our computer. Still, it's a very poignant period in time and a reminder that masses of people inevitably cause problems even with the best of intentions. (I doubt the majority went in thinking hey lets go rob, pillage and do unchristianly things)

Bounsingonbongos1 Well, it's what happens when you have people who, for the most part, don't leave the area they were born in, have pretty much no education, and who have a very strict ideology. Yeah, we've made massive massive progress in pretty much every field. People are more educated and knowledgable, less violent (violent deaths are on a massive global decline, and have been for a while now), healthier, longer lived, and generally better off.

Fen Y He refers to the (historical/literal) period of Romaticism. In CONTRAST to that, this series rather shows, that life wasn't all milk and honey back then.

“They did many crusades. Some of which almost didn’t fail”

Europe: Start crusade to retake the Holy Land Also Europe: It hurt itself in its confusion

I like your scorecard. It really summed the whole thing up.

How can you get the outro music? Google aint got me shit :c

Anyone remember Disney's Sword in the Stone? The Crusades seems to be a long list of that moment of Sir Ector slapping his face as Kay gets defeated by a target dummy and yelling NNOO NO NOOOO!!!

Extra Credits/History, you good folks are a sight for sore eyes. In this age of misinformation and ignorance it's heartwarming to see an honest attempt to bring a little light in our lives. Deus Volt! Lol. Thanks for all your hard work and dedication!

It's not crazy to think that people became a whole lot stupider between 500 and 1000 AD is it? This history sounds a lot more like Dark fall history or of any other pvp based mmorpg than the sophisticated stuff that happened thousands of years earlier between the Romans and Egyptians or centuries later.

Great video!

Well done mister pope. well done. Loved the scorecard at the end

This whole Crusade thing sounds like one massive rave world tour

And to think this turned out to be one of the more successful crusades.

lol love the lampshade. i was thinking it seemed like a frat party gone horribly out of control.

The amount of death and carnage of these events does nothing to stop this from being hilarious. Truly this is the greatest history if all.

It is said that every society is three missed meals away from anarchy. I suppose it should be said that every peasant crusade, no matter how much driven by idealism originally, is three missed meals away from going on a looting rampage. Which will likely happen sooner rather than later, as peasant crusades aren't known for having good logistics.

1:00 Shoes. A siege to a city, born in a dispute over SHOES.

Extra history lectures are the best

men you actually make this part of history an absolute comedy

This is like the South Sea Bubble series in that it's practically comical! With the difference that there's a lot more people dead directly because of it. But you know, history is that way.

yet so many christians today continue to believe the crusades were such glorious and wonderful thing

For the record, 40,000 unexpected guests is no small number to feed in modern times. The logistics of feeding that many people are daunting under ANY circumstance.

nice rainal!. such a bushido spirit you had shown back then :D

I would really like to see a series through the uprising and fall of the Ottoman Empire and also the Swedish Empire. I love your videos keep it up :)

7:26, huh the horses are no longer depicted as being plump and adorable looking like previous episodes. Now they are more lean and detailed.

As the old quote goes: "Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers."

it's such a good series that I'm WATCHING IT a second time :D

Ok... So far, they've began the first crusade three times in the series.

Terrible its truly disgusting how these people killed and pillaged in the name of a cause that they in no way helped.
