Writer here! This has been one of the most requested videos on the channel and it was such a pleasure to finally piece this puzzle together. A big reason why this video came to be in the first place was the great sources I was provided with by the amazing Georgian Institute of Public Affairs! A special thanks to their team and especially Nika Khoperia who translated new findings on this often misrepresented period of history. Didgori is not a clear cut battle and cannot be described without the context of the crusades/ERE and Seljuk Empire. We hope you enjoy this story as it fills the void and represents what we consider the most likely scenario of these events!

One interesting fact: Medieval Arab historian Ibn al-Azraq al-Fariqi who arrived in Tbilisi in 1153, and spent several years in the service of the then King Demetrius I, was particularly interested in the battle of Didgori and even visited the battlefield. Al-Fariq wanted to meet with the participants of the battle so Here is what he writes in his anals: “I, myself saw the battlefield in 1153 as soon as I arrived in Tbilisi. By the order of King Demetrius of Georgia, we went to the inner districts of Tbilisi, then We passed an area that is a 70-day walk ... A few days later we reached a wide mountain with a wide field. At the foot of this mountain is erected a high fortress, and here the king encamped. The king told me: “Here is someone in prison from the Ilghazi army, as tomorrow comes, look and ask him where he is from." I decided to do the same. But that night the king received word that some districts had revolted. Immediately the hike fell and the king set off. God did not want us to meet him ." As we can read from his writings, the prisoner of war was still in prison after 22 years of the battle. According to Arab historian Ibn al-ʿAdīm (1192-1262), 4.000 Muslims were imprisoned in the battle, while other Christians sources mention numbers as high as 30.000 (which is most probably an exaggeration). The eyewitness of the battle of Didogri "Chronicler of David" writes that there were numerous casualties on the Seljuk Side: "And our troops - and not only them but the whole kingdom was overflowing with gold and silver, Arabian horses, Assyrian mules, tents and carpets, and countless military devices, diverse copper drums and catapults, refined vessels for feasts and ablutions, and kitchenware - how much paper or ink it would take to describe all that! You should have seen how peasants were driving the captured Arabian kings, how could you tell now that they had been great fighters!” P.S. As a Georgian, thank you very much Kings and Generals for this video!

@ari3903 Год назад

Thanks for covering this battle in an unbiased manner. As a Georgian, I can confirm the part about our nationalism and Didgori. My teachers and friends alike will kill me for saying this, but I agree with your estimation of the numbers. All schools teach the 300k figure like it's an empirical fact when it's not. I remember asking my teacher how and why Seljuks had 300k soldiers against David when they had less than 100k in Manzikert. She responded that it was a coalition of Muslim nations but refused to name anything more than the Seljuks themselves as if they were a centralized political entity. Knowing the Sunni and Shia divide, western battle numbers, the jihads and the failure of cooperation against the crusades, I always took this matter with a grain of salt. Despite my cynical stance, I was surprised to see that David had failed to take Ganja. They never teach that in schools. Thanks for this unbiased take on our history and brace yourselves for the angry Georgian comments that you may get, because I know them all too well.

dude, I wouldn't go talking in absolutes. in my school and in the textbooks at the time it never flat out said that il gazi had 300k. it always just said here are the sources, they're most definitely wrong. Weird thing though, these bloated numbers usually came from muslim chronicles nor Christian ones, so I'm a bit confused why in the video they said it the other way around. also david did subjugate ganja in the end, so him not being able to take it a few years earlier isn't that big of a detail, although interesting.

@ari3903 Год назад

@@giorgikvernadze3766 Yes, the books say that the number ranged from 150k to 300k depending on the source, but the teachers usually go for the bigger number. They often state that those numbers came from Muslim sources, but they're never mentioned. If they did exist, it's quite possible that the sources were written by Ilghazi's enemies to overexaggerate his defeat.

David the Builder was a military, diplomatic, administrative and political genius, all at once. Perhaps one of the most talented men in all history. He, through a series of methodical and extremely well thought-out and executed moves and reforms, turned a seemingly hopeless, drained and devastated land in a condition of feudal anarchy into a regional powerhouse for the next one hundred years, and it only ended when the Mongols showed up.
