Request: You have absolutely nailed the narration, and your delivery of clear concise historical context and evocative easily followed descriptions of the battles themselves are among the best one can find anywhere. I hope having reached this level of quality you will begin to consider exploring the application of different visual elements. Because the illustrations are so similar, I find that if I binge-watch a lot of your videos in one sitting or over a couple of days, my ability to recall visual information associated with a particular battle or series of battles becomes quite muddled. This channel has the positive “problem” of being prolific, and covers a truly amazing range of history. One suggestion might be to experiment with something as simple as adding a two colored frame around the screen that color-codes for time period and region. Included in thumbnails, an element like that might also help viewers pick out videos they are interested in if trying to focus on a period or place. Adding the names of the principles on the thumbnail in a consistent area of each thumbnail, in a particular color for each ruler or general, could also help people find what they want when _The Algorithm_ presents them with a jumbled mash of videos. Another option you could try might be adding different fonts of varying colors associated with informational elements such as time period, region, or faction. Personally speaking, I would benefit from visual marks such as a bright colored marker indicating the units you are describing that persists for longer and brighter indicators of things like axes of advance which persist on screen while a unit is moving and briefly afterward. I think that your current format does well in the visual department ,and I enjoy watching the illustrations tremendously, so I hope you will take this as constructive and that you won’t be in a rush to change the style unless you find something that really contributes. Thanks for all the hard work you have put into the content. I hope you have some time to take a few moments and enjoy the accomplishment. Cheers!

@@MohamedRamadan-qi4hl It’s obvious that the imperiousness attributed to her by contemporary writers would have otherwise been called “decisiveness” in a male. She was bold, intelligent, and insightful, but judged her moment badly after Lincoln. She seems to have accepted this and with her withdrawal from leading her forces directly in England in the succeeding years, she devoted herself fully to her son’s claim. Henry II would prove to be the greatest medieval English king, and one simply cannot totally extract his peerless political nous from what was undoubtedly his mother’s influence, whom he often consulted. What’s inarguable is that both Matilda, and especially Henry, stood head and shoulders above Stephen as a ruler.

English Historia is the modified timeline where the bad guys are constantly victorious.

These videos are so consistently great. That is s real achievement, because we can probably all think of a channel that has produced a similar number of videos but a good percentage of those are only worth watching once. I have seen videos on this channel covering periods and parts of the world in which I was less interested, and yet watched them twice because of the quality of the narration and clarity of explanation.

Loving your narration of the war that gave rise to England's greatest Dynasty!

Despite being born in Bristol, I only learnt of Matilda when I was on a walking tour at age 30! Hope the work of popular historians like HistoryMarche means more folks will be aware of this period of English history.

Thanks alot for putting up that ad i finally found a history channel worth watching!!!!

This was an excellent deep dive into history! It's fascinating to see how the events of 1138 would lead to a full-blown war in England. It's also interesting to see how history continues to repeat itself with issues today, showing the relevance and importance of understanding our history. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion with us.

I've heard Matilda's friendly visit described more understandably- but great presentation nonetheless! This history is all but forgotten by many, and I'm so glad I took time to watch this and refresh my memory. Human desire for power is unchanged and entertaining.

Man as someone who absolutely loves history your channel is a gem

Stephen is perfect example of someone who was too gentle to ever make a good king. Medieval Kings had to be brutal. His sense of mercy was admirable, but it was also his biggest failing as a King.

King Stephen wife "Matilda" (French naming system is lame IK) is the true lady of badass, as you will see soon..

I love this channel. Everything oozes of quality - the research, script and narration are just superb. The graphics are on par with what a major broadcaster could do. So impressive, please keep it coming!

I remember reading the novel the pillars of the earth by Ken Follett a long time ago, where described that battle and the consequent atrocities to the people of Lincoln. Makes more sense now with your video. Thanks!

Wonderful video!⚔🔥😎

Excellent!

I grew up near the ruins of Totternhoe castle, a Motte-and-bailey castle with two Baileys. I was told it was built by the Normans in the time of The Anarchy. The whole area is rich with history, it's in the doorstep of the Chiltern hills. Close to the Ridgeway - the oldest road/trail in Britain. Close to Ivinghoe beacon, an iron age hill fort which has a.xommanding view of the surrounding vale. The dunstable downs is the site of burial mounds; Saxon, Roman and neolithic apparently. The woods above Pitstone Quarry have a borde Dyke separating the Danelaw from Saxon lands. I'd say go to that area for a good walk before it's gone, because the building project from Leighton Buzzard are slowly but surely making their way accross the vale. In fact, the bottom of the downs, close to the main road is supposed to be the site of a "large" bronze age battle.

Awesome vid love it👍

8:00 dude Stephen you had the enemy leader in your custody, you could have ended all possible rebellions in her name in the future right there, at the very least you should have locked them up. Stephen is a way to weak, trusting and merciful king

Did this video really say Stephen “cut across the kings rear?” They must have cared deeply for each other.

Well done like it.

It's all so very interesting.

What a beautiful name Matilda truly is... ☘️💙

I think this battle appears in pillars of earth and very well used with battle axe scene

Having the Cymru/Welsh fight as light-infantry auxiliary on the side of the resented English is generally a poor idea. Simon de Montfort suffered from them as allies not being able to hold their lines and fleeing from bad morale.

Oh Wow! This all takes place in the historical fiction I just read "Pillars of the Earth". Its a long book but an awesome read, it goes quick lol.

Nice video.

It’s like the battle of Poitiers when King Jean II Capet-Valois had an axe and I believe had it break too if i am remembering correctly and fought in the front ranks until he was taken prisoner by the earl of warwick
