El Cid "El Campeador" - The Great Knight of the Reconquest of the Iberian Peninsula See U in History Art: Marcus Aquino Color: Rod Fernandes #SeeUinHistory #History
@@jamesmerone As a hero of the Reconquista. Specialy liked in Burgos. People start learning about him because of "El cantar de mio Cid", a piece of popular literature romanticizing his work and life. As a hero of the people, there are also fake but cool tales about him, like "La jura de Santa Gaeda".
My friend, i was à Child when my grand father gave me a book to read about historical legends. El Cid was through my favorite 😊i remember i was fascinated. So happy for Spain to be my christian brothers 😊
Fun fact the Ummayades who established the Caliphate still living in Spain mainly in Cordoba and Valera under the name of Ben Jumia (sons of Ummeya) and they are devout catholics and fought at the end of the reconuista against the muslims and spread Christianity.
@@stillcantbesilencedevennowactually one of them has almost monopoly of energy sector in Spain the rest live modestly, some are in Peru. They are not the only one, 2 princes of the last Muslim royal house in Grenada converted to Christianity and they were responsible for the breaking the peace Treaty with Muslims and are responsible for the explosion of Muslims from Iberia, their descendants took the last name of Del Sol. Same for royals of Egypt, Afghanistan (branch of Amanollah Shah). As for Iran the Kajar dynasty main branch are British Christians now and many branches of Pahlavi dynasty are Catholics living between USA and France. Recently the daughter of the claimer of the throne of Albania was baptized catholic.

The catholic bishop Don Oppas asked the Muslims to conquer the Peninsula in 711.
Thanks for a great video. There were many great knights but Rodrigo Diaz de Vivar got the greatest military force of the time to call him El Cid (The Lord). That is evidence that he was the greatest Knight in Christendom. This has created admiration by great people and envy by the weak and resentful.
0:00 Cool a war on battlefield. 1:01 He train him and horse too. 2:41 Now that as great training skills sweet! 4:10 He had three children like a family. 5:29 Now they on war on battlefield. 6:34 Now they celebrate party! 7:25 He at outside watch sun is down. So this is story of El Cid great training will help on your journey. Wonderful and Wonderful and very impressive. They should remind all humanity in history what El Cid's actions.

POR ESPAÑA, POR DIOS POR EL CID!, still remember that part of this movie El Cid, sad no one has done another movie about one our greatest national heroes.
What? Nothing about this famous warrior being strapped on his horse after death, and placed at the back of his army as encouragement? Did Age of Empires deceived me?
The thumbnail is false El Cid was a staunch Catholic and did not fight against the crusaders Your thumbnail is completely false and typical anti Catholic El Cid was an opportunist, hence why the Catholic Church did not make him a saint He was a great leader but he did not fight against crusader armies *and he would not dare, since this is going against the pontif*
