    ivan55599 in southern and eastern Norway (Agder and Akershus) we have the same problem, but with a few differences. Agder slowly gets colder, but we still have rain, while looking enviously north towards the mountains with a metre of snow already in November. Then we finally get snow, suddenly everything is covered in a knee-deep layer of icy cocaine powder. Few days later, spring comes and the snow melts away slowly until May. While in Akershus, we get to zero degrees Celsius in October, but because this region of Norway is a desert, we only get ten centimetres of snow in late January. A few days later, the uppermost snow has melted and re-freezed into a layer of hard ice that you can even walk on without making footprints. in March it's all gone again.

    This is not entirely true. The Novgorod Republic did not run away. At the same time, there were 2 circumstances. The horde's cavalry could not go to Novgorod because of deep swamps and dense forests, and Novgorod voluntarily paid tribute. And as history shows, it was the right move.

    Well, maybe that's because our image of the vikings is mostly propaganda from the Christian monks they were in conflict with. Their pillaging and raiding was only minor compared to their trade networks and colonies. They had a 900 year long democratic tradition, the oldest we know of in history. They were excellent ship builders and explorers, had craftsmanship and a law of order more reasonable than any other at the time. They had stronger rights for women, a woman could be a soldier if she wanted, she had inheritance rights, she often had leadership roles, she could marry and divorce as she herself wished. And unlike the rest of Europe at the time, they mostly did not practice capital punishment of decapitation of limbs for thieves and criminals. We also have records where the English mock the Norse because the Norse washes once a week. Which was something the English only did once a year. There is often a huge focus on the viking slave trade, but all of Europe had slaves then, the vikings were traders so they traded slaves like any other commodity. If you read the sagas, there is one particular story of king Olav who went in disguise among some pagans, and in that story you'll actually find that the Norse trells slept in the same room as their lords, they ate at the same table, they were included and active in religious rituals. Compared to how slaves were treated in England or elsewhere, the Norse really had developed slightly more egalitarian than their southern neighbours. All in all, compared to the rest of Europa, the Norse were probably the cleanest, most civilized when it comes to human values, most egalitarian bunch of people. Compared to our standards, they were not - but these were different times. They were also taller than any other Europeans because they were better fed. So the fact that the Nordic countries has the highest HDI in the world is _not_ _at_ _all_ surprising, it's a result of thousands of years of cultural development. It's just that you guys still believe in ancient propaganda from English monks.

    What does that even mean? A person from Västergötland in the 8th century was culturally closer to a Dane than a person from Västergötland in the 17th century when the culture was controlled by the Lutheran Swedish church/king. In between, culture was ruled by Rome. If you want to preserve cultures, North Korea is a good example, where people are not allowed or can afford to change culture or the Amish who control people through shame so the culture is preserved. If you think we've left religious fundamentalism behind, just look at how people were shamed into taking an injection for a disease that wasn't that dangerous to the vast majority of people, or the worship of Saint Climate Greta. Obey the science.

    I finished playing Medieval 2: Total War some days ago. My Spanish Empire was the only object of the Mongols' wrath as they came towards me through the desert. I had the western Mediterranean, and they had the eastern. I kept destroying their armies in Lybia but the Mongol rape train doesn't stop. In Europe I had just taken Rome to get rid of the Vatican, but that didn't work, and I was all the way in Holland but because of the damn Mongols and several Crusades to absorb, I didn't have enough resources to invade the British Isles, and I kept losing ground in France, eventually losing all of it, so I asked the Timurids who were in the Ukraine if they would freely take Libya, northern Italian regions, Marseilles and the Cantabrian mountains regions. They accepted, and this got the Mongols to fight them, keeping the Mongols from ever attacking me again. Divide and conquer worked there. But the other Europeans didn't attack the Timurids, so I failed to stop the crusaders with the same tactic. I was being invaded by the English in Asturias, and after defeating one invading army, another took its place on and on. The Danes then advanced all the way to Spain but made me their vassal just to betray me a few years later. Those perfidious Danes and dastardly Brits! I called it quits and moved all of my people to America trying to take over the Aztecs but I didn't have enough resources to keep my conquests in Mexico, so I was stuck with Cuba and Brazil. Despite losing, I achieved my mission of keeping the Mongols from conquering me. That alone makes me happy, since on the internet I was attacked by Kazakhs and Mongols who sided against me because I'm a European and a Christian, so I got revenge by keeping the Mongols from conquering me in the game.

In Sweden we usually use the names of the historical provinces rather than the counties, and I think the Norwegians might do that too to some extent. For example: Västra Götaland county consists of the historical Västergötland, Bohuslän and Dalsland. If a Swede asks another Swede: "Where are you from?" and the other Swede says: "I'm from Åmål." and then the first Swede asks: "Where is that?" it's likely that the second Swede would answer: "It's in the northeastern part of Dalsland" rather than "In the northern part of Västra Götaland county".

    Some episodes of Swedish-Novgorodian wars are shown not very accurate, though it is a great job by all means. For example, in 1323 Novgorod set up an Oreshek fortress where Neva River flows from Lake Ladoga. On your map, Novgorodians have a border with Sweeden somewhere near Rovaniemi (!) and Oreshek is so far from that place, that it even not shown on the map. Why did they build a fortress 1000 km far from the battlefields?

    Great video. The only problem is that the mongols never took Novgorod. They mostly controlled southern Russia and Ukraine.

    Just to satisfy my curiosity. There stands faction called "pohjola". What it stands for? I know its a place wich is mentioned in Kalevala but how did you end up placing it on Finnmark? What did you used as a source? Ive been studying and looking every possible evidence about ancien Finnic origins etc and i havent come across with the name "pohjola" in other sources than kalevala so id like to know how did you end up placing it on that spot. Thank you!

    Does beige refer to "independent states" (independent governed societies)? The color map suggests that it would mean "weakly controlled by Denmark", but that is hardly the case in, e.g., Finland (from 350 to ~1200 when Sweden took over). Note also the government by future Swedish king Karl Knutsson Bonde in Finland (just 1440 marked in red). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_VIII_of_Sweden

    Archaeological evidence suggests the first skates were made of animal bones in around 3000 BC to aid travel during the frozen winters in Finland. Scientists who made the discovery say it means that ice skating is the oldest form of human-powered transport.

    Why is "Vanaja" mentioned? It is actually part of Tavastia. Tavastia is actually located next to Birkaland not next to Karelia. You should add Kvenland, first time seen on a map in 814 CE. Pohjola might not be actual place, it is more likely geographical region related to Lapland (Pohjola = The North),.
