Battle of the Standard, 1138 ⚔️ When they realized they attacked too soon ⚔️ The Anarchy (Part 1) 

Ho History March. Can we tie up. India is biggest viewer ship so i will dubbed into Hindi and other regional language same video

Hey HistoryMarche. I really like your videos and look forward to their release every week. I have a question though: Why are your series released interspersed with other unrelated videos (sometimes for weeks) rather than one after another? Thanks for all your sterling work.

@@Jack-xg1kg Videos take time to produce. So each episode takes about 1 month to make. In between I post other videos/episodes from other series.

@HistoryMarche Thank-you so much for the answer. Really appreciate your work.

ground news is biased towards the wef agenda and they spread misinformation of whats really going on.

So soothing. He's soporific.

Shame about his mangling of place names.

I agree, he's very memorable.

@@neiloflongbeck5705 "Awln-wick"?

@@jonbaxter2254 cringeworthily bad, isn't it. Even MS Word gets it right.

I feel like the defeat can be summed as as divide and conquer, but done to yourself. He sent very fast units forward which were not able to be supported by the rest of the army.Thus giving the engligh a numbers advantage where there should have been none

Bingo

I knew the connection between Game of Thrones and the Wars of the Roses, but not this. It seems obvious now though, so thanks for enlightening me!

and it inspired the most famous SecsPistols song

And was the basis for the best historical fiction Pillar's of the Earth.

Yeah but the Anarchy makes sense The dance doesn't

@@ksodz1397 wym?

Same with french. Sometimes seems the whole world is a single family rule.

@@engarvikk5885 indeed is it. It's basically the true legacy of the Holy Roman Empire. We all have multiple ancestors from different nations that connect to the Habsburgs or the Wittelsbach dynasties in central Europe. The same could be said of how America interconnects with most of the known world today.

yeah, most people fail to appreciate that this was the case from the very beginning even, the hegemony in Scotland being essenitally another branch of the Saxon tree, having come over in the same migration invasions as those further south... in fact they came up via England where they were established first.

@@heofonfyr6000 THAT is complete bollocks! You are seriously saying that THE SCOTS were saxons?! FFS do a bit of reading before you say such stupid things! The Scottish ethnic and national group is CELTIC in origin. Everybody with half-a-brain knows that.

@@seastnanseastnan7765 fuck, I've got a retard trying to rudely lecture me who not only can't read, but doesn't even recognise the difference between a lowland Scot noble and a tribal Celtic Gael, holy fuck 🤡🤦🏻‍♂️ never mind Saxons and the early dark age, you're probably gonna try and tell me ROBERT the Bruce was a damn celt 🤣 fuckin' unbelievable how some people get so offensive when they can't even be sure what thay're talking about... you probably don't even know what fucking language the Scots officially spoke ...I'll give you a clue; it starts with 'Eng' and ends in 'lish'. and before you go off on some pointless rant about how 'Scots' came from Ulster; everybody knows that.... that's not what's being discussed here. what's being discussed is the origins of the mainstay of lowland Scottish nobility after the Norman invasion, and I raised the point of the largely Saxon, although mixed, origins of the Scottish court centuries before that. Scotland was many different things back then... don't confuse them with the modern nation and don't confuse High Middle Age Scotland with Alba or Caledonia, or pretend those things were coherent and homogenous either... they were nothing of the kind you really need to think more. I mean how does it even make sense in your head that the region now called Scotland, which was never conquered or colonised in any way by the Romans, suddenly found itself worshipping Christianity and writing in Latin without English influence 🤦🏻‍♂️ did you think the Vikings brought that? 😂 come on, man... * great, now you've deleted your comment so nobody can see how rude you were... what a guy

What is history but an endlessly convoluted soap opera

@Daemon Targaryen is correct. From William The Conqueror to Henry VII's retaking of his family's throne is basically what GoT is based on.

Yep pretty incredible how slow he writes when he's just plagiarizing/adapting stories anyway. Maybe he'd be faster if he came up with something more original. Anyway he's gonna die before redditors get their book, which is just punishment.

@Daemon Targaryen Final Fantasy Tactics had the most interesting fictional War of the Roses. A lot of it is in the background, because you play as the childhood friend of the new king, and you end up punching the demons behind it all while he resolves the civil war.

Yep, our history is way better and more complex than any fantasy novel

They did something similar during the Black Death, with all the expected results.

Every single time there was slight unrest in England the Scots, the Irish and the Welsh would have a go, only to surrender later.

@@neiloflongbeck5705eah what they didn’t realise was it was the peasant population mostly effected the standing armies lords most of them avoided the plague by being walled up away from it. Or burning the bodies of the peasants so again if you are poor you are fucked.

@@justinwillingale2086 got a sources for this not very coherent rambling?

@@neiloflongbeck5705 English did something very similar a few times too

Is that near Darlington? I lived in Darlington for a while and that place sound super familiar.

Yes its on the Northallerton to Darlington back road mate

Psychopathic Angevins, cruel, megalomaniac kings particularly longshanks.

Some of the best Frenchmen

@@kevingray5646 agreed. This kind of tyrannical rule was the reason why the Maga Carta was created in 1215 under the third Angevin monarch John, King of England. Unfortunately, Longshanks skipped around the Maga Carta until the disaster at Stirling Bridge forced him to join with the magnates to confirm/sign it to allow him to have enough support to wage another war with the Scots.

plantagenets being its greatest dynasty is highly debatable considering how they fucked over england in pursuit of their own ambitions and caused civil wars

@@kevingray5646 The Tudors & Stuarts were so much better 🤣

Dude, imagine if all 3 of the channels collaborated on a docuseries.

Thanks so much for your support! This directly contributes to funding more videos. Very kind of you!

One could draw a comparison to Philip of Macedon in this case

@Croutonium very true. King Philip II of Macedon did allow Alexander to have enough advantages to defeat his domestic Greek rivals and later enhance/upgrade the army to fight Persia in the coming conflicts. Literally reshape the Hellenistic world, and some thought Philip be the thirteenth Greek God had he not been assassinated. Same could be almost said about Frederick The Great when he inherited his father's well trained army for Prussia.

Thank you so much for the support. Very kind of you.

It's not too well known in England, either. Unless you read the Cadfael novels, which are set in this period.
