Kings and Generals animated historical documentary series on the Italian Wars continues with the aftermath of the famous battle of Pavia. France was on the back foot, but the events in the Holy Roman empire, where the Emperor Charles V had to contend both with the Protestant movement and the incursions of the Ottoman empire, allowed the house of Valois to continue the fight in Italy. In this video we will cover the 5th, 6th and 7th Italian wars, including the Sack of Rome in 1527 and the battle of Ceresole of 1544

Hello K&G I love all your videos and have been watching you for 2 years straight almost every day I've got some Pacific war videos to watch after this!
Not concerning this topic but rather the Ottoman Wars videos. Looking at the map, I always thought that small parts of Croatia proper and Hungary managed to fend of the Ottoman Invasion and aligned themselves with the Habsburgs. Could you please make a video about this subject? You have mentioned Katzianer and Šubić Zrinski already, but what about the battle of Sisak and the foundation of Karlovac or the Vlach infighting and the Statuta Valachorum? You did mention the friction between Hungarian and Transylvanian protestants and catholics but the same thing happened in Northern Croatia and modern day Slovenia, as did the peasant revolts. Hope you expand your Ottoman Wars content, we Slavs would surely appreciate it. Thank you for this video and for everything you've covered!

Casual Historians, after seeing the title of the video: Epic stand of Swiss guard during Saco di Roma. Me, as a man of culture, fully appreciating the video's thumbnail: The gallant stand of the French reserve under the army's commander Francois de Bourbon, Count of Enghien was so disastrous that the general even intended to stab himself and die. Fortunately, the gendarmes and their leader persevered, not only halted advance of tercios and landsknechts, but rather remarkably, many of the knights captured 15 or even 20 of the imperials each, who slaughtered their noble comrades just few minutes ago, nevertheless begging for mercy and protection from certain onslaught by victorious Gascon and Swiss foot! This deserves to be immortalised. 🥲

Hungary part of the map is wrong. Before 1526 (Battle of Mohac), Hungary was not under rule of Habsburgs. It was an independent kingdom. Also after 1526, the most of Hungary was under Ottoman rule excluding Croatia, west of the Balaton Lake and north Hungary. So, Ottoman rule had never reached the center of Croatia and near city of Graz.

Even though Charles V didn't want the Sack of Rome to happen, the message was still clear; Don't anger the Emperor. Clement VII refused to help Henry VIII because Catherine of Aragon was Charles V's aunt and didn't want to get his capital sacked again. The first time was negligence, but the second time might have done....only this time with the Emperor's approval and consent.

I read a book about Catherine De Medici, it actually got turned into a show recently, which I haven't watched. But I'm forgetting if the Italian wars continue into her time as regent. They definitely continued with her husband Henry II. I think she was too preoccupied with the French Wars of Religion and managing her sickly, young, incompetent children to focus on Italy, even if she was Italian herself. I also think Charles V's heir Philip II was too busy with England and the Netherlands to bother much with Italy
