Namaste Thomas Headley. Respectfully I must ask why use the word Marriage? This word is for mutual Love, respect and admiration. Ironic how you would use that word to describe "binding commonality that survives tumult.": Please listen from 7:20 - 7:35 of this video. That was an unwanted "unity". I'm not sure what you meant with "true strength is achieved. I'm not talking dictatorship." Respectfully old history of USA/CSA is not concerned here, which struggles to this day with "a unity of acceptance". This is Brittany in Europe, Bretons are their Natives. Peoples of peaceful Brittany have a very unique language, art, history and culture that predates the Roman conquest many centuries perhaps millennia. I respect this greatly, we all have much to learn. Please read comment above from: France has been the most important power post-Rome. Disrespectful. Why not respectfully allow these people to discover, enjoy and explore their own "commonality" peacefully? Thank you. Be well:)

For historic context, I think it’s important to note that Bretons weren’t only in Brittany at this time. Eminent families of primarily Breton descent were all over Britain, Ireland, France and beyond. Edward IV’s mother-in-law Jacquetta of Luxembourg identified as Breton. Her sister Catherine incidentally was the third wife of Arthur III, Earl of Richmond (by right) and Duke of Brittany. Observe the Richmond connection to Henry VII.

These really help me with A-level. I never did know much about Henry VII but I do thanks to these videos! Do more on him please :)

BREIZH EO MA BRO

Very good movie but I noted two mistakes : The most important one is at one fifty on the time stamp : the map of Brittany which appears is wrong. In those years Nantes and its department belonged to Brittany. Furthermore the first french attack took place in Nantes in 1487 ! The French and the Nazis decided in June 1941 to take away Nantes and its department from Brittany, to punish the Bretons (they were many to join Great Britain in the war effort). Note that since the end of the war, the bretons have been asking relentlessly the reunification of Brittany to no avail ! At six twenty on the time stamp, the name of Saint Aubin Du Cormier is misspelled. It’s not « CoUrmier » but « Cormier ». :)

The bit to the south of B. became separated as part of the deal made by the Vichy government with the Third Reich. Nantes has the Duke's castle. Your Netherlands national anthem reminds me of the elves in the Little Kingdom of Ben and Holly. ....

There was also an interesting intrigue regarding a certain Breton spy by the name of Pierre Le Pennec whom Henry hired to plot a conspiracy against France during the Breton Plot, Several letter have survived detailing Henry's instructions to Le Pennec, but his role in the intrigue is never official, and he only acted as an independent advisor to the king. Given the both the Perkin Warbeck and Lambert Simnel controversies, the former happening concurrently with the Breton Plot, it becomes apparent there were challenges to Henry's claim to the throne from nearly the moment of his ascension. His part in the Breton Plot was another way to secure his legacy and his right to rule England, not to mention ending the Yorkists plots to overthrow him once and for all. However, it seems Le Pennec may have overplayed his hand, and eventually, the plot ended. The last we hear about Le Pennec comes from about 1497 when he is England promoting the cause for Duke Lodovico of Milan. There is a great deal more about the Breton. I came upon this episode when I first began working on my doctoral thesis.

Have you played Europa Universalis IV by any chance?

France was also the dominant power in Europe from 1214 till the start of the hundred years war thanks to the battle of bouvines (defeated both germans and english). Its not as simple as that (heck even things like "France" were louse concepts back at the time, but that battle did start the rise of a french nationalist sentiment tho), but Saint Louis was considered Europe's arbiter (before he threw this privilege in some costly silly crusades along with his life).

« Kento’ch mervel eget amañ zaotra » means « rather death than defilement/disgrace ». The long version is « rather die with pride than live in disgrace ». The motto of the dukes of Brittany. It’s said that Alain II Al Louarn (the fox) or Barbe Torte (Beard Torte), the first duke of brittany who went back home from an exile in Wales to free Brittany from the Vikings and the Normans, used it to boost the morale of his troops on the battlefield. They were loosing ground when he saw an ermine chased by a fox. The scene takes place during winter so the ermine fur is white. At some point it faces a flask of mud, and the fox is approaching. The ermine decides to die fighting the fox rather than sully its fur. Alain shout the motto, then he and his men charge and they defeat the normans. But this scene is surely a myth, even if Alain II really freed and unified Brittany in 939. Another myth is from a similar scene: during a hunting with hounds duchess Anne of Brittany saw an ermine turn back to fight the dogs rather than dive in a flask of mud. Anne told everyone to spare the ermine’s life. But it’s an anachronism as the first duke to display ermines on his arms is Pierre Mauclerc de Dreux in 1213. So, where does the motto really come from? We don’t know yet. But I’d love the Alain II version to be true! So epic..

It's more of a Norman versus Franks rather than English versus French. If the Normans didn't create the Norman Kingdom of England do you think Normandy would be "English" territory? It's a bit confusing for people. Also, both sides had 'English' and 'French' fighting for either side. I have Breton, Norman, Frankish, Irish, and English heritage for context. I guess it's a matter of perspective. Nationalism didn't really exist back then, it was fealty (a feudal tenant's or vassal's sworn loyalty to a lord).

The French did invade England in 1216, and installed the heir to the French throne as King--a guy named Louis. King John died while on campaign against him that year, and the Earl Marshal defeated the French at Lincoln the following year. People forget about it, as Louis did agree to renounce his claim (it also allowed the excommunication to be lifted off of him, courtesy of his invading a papal vassal (i.e., England)).

Albukhshi the French King was invited by the English barons to invade England and become their king as they were fed up with King John and his reluctance to adhere to the Magna Carta. When John died in 1216, the barons decided to kick out the French king. They, instead, decided to place John's son, Henry the third, on the throne. It was an invited invasion.

@Albukhshi

7 жыл бұрын

1-Not sure if you meant that the guy was already king of France or not, but in case: The French King at the time, Philip II Augustus, was not invited; his heir was (Louis). Louis himself became king of France in 1223 as Louis VII. That was because Philip himself had no real claim to the throne of England, but his son did (weak as it was). He was specifically invited not just because John didn't uphold the Magna Carta (which had been voided by pope Innocent III, and all supporters declared excommunicate or fired from their sees--e.g., Stephen Langton was suspended as Archbishop of Canterbury), but because he also defeated the barons in the 1215 campaign: they were getting desperate, in other words (which is why, when John was dead, Louis was no longer that useful). 2-An invited invasion is still an invasion--especially as, just as in 1066, it was opposed by Barons still loyal to the Plantagenets and specifically John (the Barons were more divided than many imagine). Hubert de Burgh held out in Dover; there was of course John's campaign in 1216, and William Marshal's campaign in 1217.

Paradoxically, the fall of Brittany was due to Arthur III saving France from the English. After liberating Paris, he attempted to take Normandy using French soldiers, but they were rubbish and easily spooked. He decided this was because the French government was rubbish, so he took it over (with enthusiastic help from the idiot-king’s mother-in-law Yolande of Aragon). He reformed the royal finances and French army training along Breton lines, created professional artillery regiments, used them to smash the castles of French rebel barons, and destroyed the English in Normandy. His nephew Duke Peter finished off the English army in France with a cavalry charge in the Battle of Castillon in Gascony. Arthur III would have made a much better king of France than Charles VII "the vain". The upside is that Ermine ruled Europe anyway.
