In case someone is interested, the naval battle Sauma witnessed was the Battle of the Counts, where the Aragonese under Roger of Lauria defeated a larger French navy, led by a number of counts, hence the name. Lauria actually used a tactic favoured by the Mongols: the feigned retreat. Once the pursuing French fleet broke formation, the Aragonese turned on them and flanked them, peppering their ships with the famed Catalan crossbowmen. The tide turned once the unreliable Genoese mercenaries fled, leaving their French paymasters to be surrounded. The Aragonese captured more than 40 ships, crippling their enemy's naval capability for the rest of the war. Sauma happened by chance to witness one of the decisive encounters in the war of the Sicilian Vespers.

Although tangential to Scotland, I always thought it would have been great if Braveheart (1995) had a scene where king Edward I of England, "the Longshanks" and "Hammer of Scots" had a brief meeting with Rabban Bar Sauma while away in France, to show what he was doing while his effeminate princely son was getting hammered by the Scots at Sterling Bridge (a battle which, by the way, should have featured a bridge instead of a flat open plain with pike tactics).
@jnes624

@elbentos7803
@elbentos7803 2 года назад
Probably not : both Edward longshanks and Philippe the fair were both young men at this time. For instance, Isabelle - the daughter of Philippe the fair and wife to be of Edward's son - who is played by Sophie Marceau in "Braveheart" wasn't even born at the time of Bar Sauma visit. She was born about 10 years later.
@ericconnor8251
@ericconnor8251 2 года назад
@@elbentos7803 I realize the timeline is completely off but then again Braveheart completely disregards a historically accurate chronology of events considering how Isabella of France was literally a two year old when the Battle of Sterling Bridge took place in 1297. That merely scratches the surface of how inaccurate the film was, with far grosser falsehoods like the Scots being able to sack the city of York. The movie is clearly a historical fantasy, not even a loosely historical drama, so changing the time in which Edward I meets Rabban Bar Sauma seems like a minor offense if not a fitting inclusion so long as many other events barely make sense or simply defy established history.

@@LuisAldamiz @Luis Aldamiz I'm not here to start a ping pong party on who knows better about history however let me be specific about certain facts,first, spain wasn't castile until napoleon but the spanish empire instead. Several kings from charles V where already kings of all Spain and not the kingdom of castile, then philip II, the borbons and so on. I believe what you tried to say is that modern spain as we know it today was cooked during napoleon's times but whatever..Second, of course I know not all seljuk turks came out of turkmenistan but originated from the west xiongnu tribal confederation and then the whole khwarezm region however this one country Turkmenistán is the only one that bears that ancestry in its name and it worked perfect for my example. Third, could you explain to me how turks who came to ravage, plunder, loot, kill and conquer Anatolia are any better to you than colonizing America? If you look in depth despite all black poison spurred by the netherlands against Spain, will see that Spain did not kill indigenuos people for the sake of doing it but integrated them culturally, socially and religiously..That policy is by far much better than that taken by other powers like England and there's living proof today, what race is the dominant in usa, Australia and canada? What is the one in latin america? No more questions.. Last, I would like to know also in what way is Spain hampering Venezuela's development when we harboured thousands of venezuelan refugees from Maduro's grip and all I can see are efforts from Spain to help overcome the regime, the only demon in that story is USA's blockade.

@@LuisAldamiz Oh shut up please. I come from a family that was nomadic till the 18. century. Turkey is not of homogeneous nature but highly diverse. Yörüks, as well as Turkmens that settled together with their subclans did not intermix with the local population and look a mix of Caucasian and Asian. Turks even say that I don't look Turkish to them, because of my differing looks, mainly almond eyes, pronounced cheekbones. People like us exist mainly in Central Anatolia. Being of Turkic heritage means that your ancestors were living on the steppe and had the same culture, history and customs and not that they belonged to any "race". Eastern Turkic people are genetically much more differing than the Western Turkic people, because the western ones have been intermixing with Scythians. Since the Xiong-nu, we have been intermixing with other nomads.

This is, by far, my most favorite video on this channel! Thank the team of Kings and Generals! P.S: Today, it's more like they're the team of Kings and Popes more since the Generals played no part at all.

Nice to see the Nestorians getting some spotlight, I have read a wonderful book by a British author, Aubrey R Vine, which does a wonderful job explaining them! Unfortunately the book is rare and not cheap... They still exist today in Northern Iraq in particular.

Excellent documentary. I didn't know (shame on me), although I knew something of the Nestorians. An aside important theme: the earliest legends of Prester John to Europeans placed him as a Khan in central Asia or bordering China. It was nice to know about these men and personalities.

I always thought that presbyter John is nothing more than a medieval hoax. Turns out it could be more real to the medieval Europeans than I thought.

@Luso515PorTuoGraal 2 года назад
@@martinzihlmann822 Yes, it was a very strong legend for Europeans as a possible reality. First to eventually Asia, then to Abyssinia. All these parts, from Est Africa to Catay or China were the 5 Indies for Medieval Europeans. John II of Portugal started to reinforce Ethiopia even more, which is a wrong concept, but it remained generally . There is another more esoteric vision (until current today in some intellectual circles more linked to spirituality), such as Father John, King of the World or the Underworld, to restore Humanity, often linked to Saint John's Disciple.

+1 for not illustrating the minarets at Hagia Sophia when they weren't there yet. This might just be the first time I've seen someone NOT make that mistake. It speaks to the quality of your history team that these details don't go unnoticed.
