Last Stand of the Roman Empire and Constantinople (Sabaton, Last Stand) 

The Romans would have been proud of their descendants’ last stand

Lived by the Sword, died by the Sword. Respect from South Azerbaijan

I wish they did a song specifically about the fall of Constantinople

When a bunch of Italian mercenaries and some greek guards kicked over and over a huge army of ottomans before starving to death, and still looking badass 🇬🇷🇮🇹🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

"The city has fallen, and I am still alive!" -- Constantine XI Palaiologos

The idea of Fall of Constantinople with Sabaton is perfect...

i like in the series how one of the historians states that somehow, a person from the British Isles (usually a Scotsman) finds themselves on a random battelfield (refering to John Grant)

The end of the best empire in the history. ROMA

The fact that Constantine XI was half Serb makes all this so memeable 😁

Alexander and Julius Caesar would have been proud

2,206 years it did last. From the Kingdom, to Republic, to Empire, to a new name even, but it was still Roman.

A gallant defence held Off massive turkish addault for several hours. Refusing appeals to flee, Constantine returned to the breaches and fought until overwhelmed and killed. Thius died the Last roman emperor and with him his once glorious empire. 😪🙏

Let's shout "Deus Vult" from Hagia Sophia's minarets

Respect From Turkey

Constantinople lives !

As a turk, i must admit, i admire the last emperors resolve a lot. Rome was the greatest civilisation world has ever seen. Its no surprise the empire and its last emperor fell with guns blazing. I can not imagine any other end for romans.

2:47 The only moment when real men cry! :(

The Ottoman Empire was broad and powerful, but it never realized it's true dream. It never became what its enemy was. It never become a third Rome. Never forget the last stand of 1453! Morior Invictus!

The last Roman Emperor died like a man

*☦️[Final Speech of Konstantinos XI]☦️* ".. Present your shields, swords, arrows, and spears to them, imagining that you are a hunting party after wild boars, so that the impious may learn that they are dealing not with dumb animals but with *their lords and masters, the descendants of the Greeks and Romans* .." *-Konstantinos XI Palaiologos* *[Chronicle by Georgios Sfrantzis]*

Well the pope and HRE greatly impacted Byzantium and lead to a quicker downfall then if Constantinople hadnt been sacked so it fits.

This is a great show that needs more love.

People forget that Christian's also participated in the conquest of constantinople. Both religions wer on both sides

Bro....this video is too sad specially the last part, still great video incredibly underated

wow nice music , greetings from constantinople

After watching this on Netflix this fits

Sultan Mehmed 2 and the Eastern Roman emperor Constantine XI, they were great people,Sultan Mehmed 2 is a hero to me and the Islamic world, for proving the words of the prophet Muhammad about the conquest of constantinople,Meanwhile, Emperor Constantine XI, he was a brave leader and hero, who did not leave his people and his empire, in his last moments he preferred to die on the battlefield,For the sake of the nation

the truth. ✝️☦️✝️

The ottomons always kept the name constantinople, it was changed to Istanbul wen the secular turks took control in the 1920s

Let's take back Constantinople!

Constantine Palaiologos XI was also a GREAT Emperor & Man ,like Constantine the Great ,the founder of Constantinople, because... Although he had the chance to give the City to Ottoman Turks , he denied , despite the fact that he knew he was going to die..He said NO,like a modern Leonidas... Giovanni Justiniani was a GREAT Military Man from Genova (& Chios) , who was the last defendor of Constantinople,along side with Constantine Palaiologos XI, who fought bravely the Ottoman Turks & cost them huge casualties !!! As a Greek , I can't describe how much I appreciate his contribution to our defence ! I will NEVER FORGET HIM ! I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER BOTH OF THEM !

We fucking are still here 🇬🇷🦁🦁🇬🇷

Fatih wont attack if people didnt poke him first. its become multi religion and multi cultural after that. but constantine is good leader at the last moment, bc he didnt flee. it already destined to be conquered, both side hold two different prophecies that say the same thing.

Where were the Winged Hussars? 😢😢😢😢😢😢

Please don't forget the role of Joanni Ioustiniani 0.29). He would be the one who who would save the City, by his own IF would not be betrayed. Enteral honour and respect to this man

Y así finaliza la historia de lo último que quedaba del mundo antiguo

I rolled Konstantinos XI in FGO as the refrain was playing. Felt amazing. 10/10

"Rise of Empires: Ottoman" film and Sabaton' song together! What would be better? 💛🧡♥️

I cried

Glory to the Hero Constantine XI, great Christian leader,Glory to the Byzantine Empire, eternal is your victory

the begining of a new chapter

Mehmed 2 was an honorless coward who hid behind his armies and canons. On the other hand Emperor Constantine XI fearlessly charged at the Ottoman soldiers with his sword knowing full well he was going to die.

"Either I conquer Istanbul or Istanbul conquers me" -Mehmed the conqueror

Theos Vouletai ☦️ - 🇬🇷

Mehmet the II will never be the new Caesar of rome

Whay movie is this

The greatest ending of all time

what about Mehter?

costatinouple will come back to us kostatine said it before die he fought with only 8000 greeks and italians agaist near 200.000 ottomans and killed 60.000 of them while he lost only 2000 LONG LIVE CHRISTIANITY

guze l edit ! 👍👍☣☣☪☪☯☯♾♾

In what honor should the Turks "return" Constantinople, it is a conquest as so many nations have also made so why should some give back what they have won?! I am French and proud of my past but I believe that the Turks have as much right to be too, they have a great past!

what movie is this?

i feel SABATON - The Lost Battalion could work with this too

Honorable Opponents. And fun fact Sultan Mehmet Fetih took the title of "Kaisr - e - Rum" , i.e. Caesar of Rome after conquest of constantinople.

Funny to see a song about papal defenders put into a movie about Constantinople. The Franks sacked Constantinople in the Crusades, leading to it's ultimate fall under the Ottomans.

can ya remake this video but with ''rome is falling'' music?

Mehmed, bringing new era ! changing line of history ! making the history !

whats 1527?

Alllah o akbar

The spirit of Rome and Constantinople now are in Rusia the only 3 cities built over 7 hills and after the fall of Constantinople the empress Roman Byzantine Zoe paleologo get married with the Zar. RUSIA TERZIA ROMAE DEI GRATIA

the prophet muhammad said: you shall conquer constantinople. what a wonderful leader will her leader be and what a wonderful army will that army be

They needed to accept the greatness of Mehmed and obey him. Would be better for all

Muslim power 🇹🇷⚔️🔥

Father ☪️ 🇦🇿♥️🇹🇷 !

Didn't Constantine XI take off all of his armor and regalia before "attacking to get killed"? Or is the only conceivable explanation for a ruler removing all his regalia and armor is that he was preparing to flee without being recognized? And he did that before with his brother in his despotate. Surprisingly, no contemporary sources know what happened to him, and there are no eyewitnesses. A solitary ruler?! Nobody surrounding him, no bodyguards, no high-ranking military and administrative personnel? Weird.
