@@firstnamett4656 The British monarchy is useless nowadays

It's actually kind of misleading here because the King of Scotland, James VI, was also the King of England, as James I, so England and Scotland were already under one monarch.

Oh

Chris Klitou I regard Britain as united 1603-49 because of that, one ruler and not continuous parliaments. 1649 Scotland moved its own way but 1651 Cromwell reconquered it, and united again under the restored monarchy. I regard Scotland as indy again 1688-1707, when continuous parliaments got going and had nominal consent over which king to accept, and in tbat period it was ruled by a parliamentary cabinet of aristos on the king's behalf. This explains why there were 2 unions. Why don't you show the Tweed border from 1018? What is the late Middle Ages stuff about "Chester (Eng)" and the Welsh marches shown in lighter red than England?

Not really. England didn't take over Scotland, they joined in a union with them. The union was actually Scotland's idea.

It was Scotlands idea because the English bankrupted Scotland, Scotland had no other choice and because a dozen or so wealthy Scots were offered bribes by the the British crown.

Haha true.

After Aedilric died, Bernicia under Aethelfrith took Deira and combined the two into 1. Aethelfrith died in combat. Edwin, who was the youngest son of Aedilrics brother took over. Edwin died fighting Mercia and Edwin's cousin Osric became King of the combined Kingdoms. Edwin died fighting Gywnedd. Edwins brother Osric then became King and also died fighting Gywnedd. Oswald (son of Aethelfrith) came back and united all of the clans of Bernicia and Deira and then captured a lot of land before getting killed by the King of Mercia. Oswine (son of Oswald) was elected King of Deira and Oswiu (son of Aethelfrith) was king of Bernicia. Oswiu attacked Deira and Oswine refused to fight and went to hide instead. He was turned in by his own men and executed. After that Oswiu killed the King of Mercia and controlled them for a few years. He also subdued the kingdoms to the north of him and was honorary 'Overlord' of Saxon Britain.

Owen Cradoc not only would you be insignificant but you would also be poor

but they're not just english toffs,, you have a say in who leads you, Scotland takes part in the elections, thats kinda the point of the union. I agree it could be a bit more balanced, but the solution is not to break off the union. The union was made over thousands of years of political evolution on the island, saying "phhft, they're all a bunch of english toffs" is close-minded and frankly foolish. Independent England, Scotland etc will only lead to the island as a whole becoming irrelevant, the Union is the only chance the British people (not just england) have at influencing world politics. I understand the will for independance, but Scotland is already very autonomous.

Avena Sativa : coz, if left alone, Ireland will get bored! All pubs in Ireland drunk by British visitors.

You know, i was just about to comment "To understand the troubles in Northern Ireland a little better, look what happened to Ireland between the 1500s-1600s and how it remained for hundreds of years. It isn't about the potato famine, or 1960s-1970s Belfast, it goes back a lot further than that."

Avena Sativa : Common sense is not so common, even in the House of Commons. Ireland is island, it is naturally all Irish want to claim their country. rest is Bullshit & waste of time.

I guess the troubles with Ireland go all the way back to when Irish Slave Traders regularly abducted people from the landmass we now call Great Britain.... And the Irish were perfectly happy to jump on boats and dominate other people such as the Picts. I just see it as population movement and illustrates perfectly well that the idea of 'the Irish' being a distinctly separate people from those on the landmass of 'mainland' Britain is a fallacy. And given that the Scots came from Ulster and have strong connections with that area throughout history just indicates how crass and ill thought the idea that just because Ulster is in Ireland that therefore it should be part of Eire - when put to the vote the people of Ulster voted to stay British... therefore drop the issue and move on to creating better British Irish relationahips instead of digging up old bitterness inspiring half truths...

Allan Thomson and then it was a Norse slaving centre and then the Norman's invaded England and then Wales and decided they wanted an empire which included both islands and Corsica and Sardinia and then the French kings of England wanted that same empire - 590ce to 1066ce the English didn't look at conquering anyone, they even built a wall to keep the Welsh out. It was the Norse then the French Kings, then the German and Dutch kings that have used England as a base to invade Ireland Wales and Scotland.

In history lessons in Primary School, people get taught that something happened to Boudicca (I can't remember much, it was probably something like the Romans taking her land away, or her husband, or was it that her whole family was killed? Or was that someone else?) and she got really angry and led the Iceni against the Romans, I think it was maybe because the Romans betrayed her husband or something like that, but her armed uprising failed and she poisoned herself so she wouldn't be captured alive by the Romans.

@@BoraCM she did manage to burn London

Didnt the iceni join the roman empire?

It’s a tribe not country, also, they had good relations until the romans like kinda looted the iceni

@@BoraCM her husband died, he left his lands partially to her and her daughters and partially to Rome, Romans didn't accept it and took it all for themselves, whipped Boudicca in public and had her daughters gangraped by Roman soldiers to make an example of them.

I know right, should have just happened all at once

Not the angle I was going for but it probably would be more satisfying

Same with Ireland :(

Video's incorrect anyway because it doesn't show Glyndwrs decade long takeover

Oh well, then your ancestors should have been stronger and smarter to repel the invasion. No good complaining centuries later. You should consider yourselves lucky that the English are a benevolent people who incorporated you entirely in the kingdom, rather than basically enslaving your entire population as other kingdoms might have done.

***** Most of the muslims living in Al-Andalus were basically Native Iberians converted to Islam.

well that's probably due to the fact that scotland is far north, mountainous and, at the time, not really very developed/not really much there

Also the reason England and Scotland United into a single country was because they had the Same King, which only happened because English royalty married into the Scottish royal family, and then later the same English royal family ran out and the closest heir was the Scottish King. Scotland is probably the strongest part of the whole country, even if it does have the worst weather lol.

He didn't defeat the Vikings he literally hired Viking mercenaries from Waterford and hired Viking boats to transport his troops. He was fighting a rival Irish King and he didn't end up uniting Ireland completely but he was close.

@@PotatoStickman200 He played Norse & Danes agaisnt each other, but nonetheless the kingdom of Tuath Mumhain under the O'Briens smashed Norse/Dane supremacy over the Dublin, Limerick & Clare regions, and effectively ended their monopoly in the regions - the fact that they no longer took tribute from the Irish within their territory effectively ended any effectivity of statehood that they may have had. It is a missing piece of the map, as is Brian's domination of most of Ireland, excluding O'Neill lands, and arguably Mide and the southern extremities of the island.

It's this new program we were talking about. It is a sort of "industrialisation" of the mapping process. Rather than having to make every slide for every year, I now only need to make a slide when the map changes. I could do a video this long every week now if I wanted.

I would like to industrialise too! :p If you could do a tutorial of some sort, that would be great.

+abideen turky I know for a fact that Romans were pretty good in Gauls. First they originally "invaded to help celtics clans who lived there and were allied to them. Of course it was to the detriment of the neighbouring clans they were fighting, but celtic clans never got along for too long, so there would have been conflict either way. It was fine back then because the conflict were staightforward and not nearly as bloody as modern ones. When you fight so much yo have got to agree to some limitations if you don't want everyone to get whipped out. Then the Gauls were inferiors, and then second rate citizens for some time, but eventually some became roman councils and politicians. Besides the Roman integrated the gaulish gods (they shought equivalent in the Roman pantheon and gods of the two people were often represented together in Gaul), and some romans stationed in Gaul addopted roman gods like Epona. So no religious purge or anything. And Roman technics in architecture and politic organisation, not to mention the commerce and combat tactics, were very beneficial to the Gallo-Roman. Then after the fall of the western roman empire, feudalism granted the pesant some security and prevented them to be killed or plundered every two days by passing "barbarians". Then the unification of the state and the strenghtening of the royal power quelled local conflict between nobles. As did the Crusades (in European territory I mean), which began to help the christians orthodox in Constantinople, when they had to face invasions from the muslims. Then the creation on a republic lowered the gap between the rich (who were all nobles) and the poors (peasants) and guaranteed the same rights for all. Of course there were abuses, corruption and hatred every step of the way, but nowaday it is hype to be pessimistic and hateful toward humankind, and it pisses me off. The same thing is happening every time people talk of the EU, and most of these guys don't even know what the ECSC was... That's why history is important, and why it need to be objective and show the abuse and the good deeds and intentions whenever there were any.

You should be pretty fucking proud to be a man of the isles you have a lineage thats probably a mile long and men from this islands conquored 1/4 of the world and being at war was just standard practice at the time it couldn't be helped

-"wind swept rocks and mouldy potatoes" Yeah, I'm sure that's why thousands of English lives were lost trying to conquer the island. Don't be salty.

English Renessaince begins with House of Tudor 5:19

Mate if Scotland goes independent they'll likely have opposition in the border constituents.

Don't confuse unity for civilization, Ireland during this time period was the center of academia in western Europe. It was one of the few places the Romans had not conquered and when Rome fell it was the only place that was safe and literate enough for scholars and monks to flee to. Irish monasteries replicated literature that would have otherwise been lost to time. They had a very advanced civilization despite their division. Literacy and knowledge flowed from Ireland and helped bring Europe back out of the dark ages.

@Finn Spooner No, they didn't. They established a single outpost at Drumanagh. The unique Gaelic legal system would not have survived centuries of Roman occupation.

@Finn Spooner no, there is actually no evidence whatsoever of a Roman invasion of Ireland. There is evidence of trade between Ireland and Roman Britannia and there is evidence of a single Roman outpost just north of what would become Dublin, there is no written evidence of the Roman conquest because it didn't happen and also the lack of written evidence is pretty good evidence in itself that it did not happen. The Romans were a warrior culture and there would certainly be records not just of the military campaign but also of the governance and occupation of Ireland. Another fact that works against the hypothesis of a Roman conquest is that Ireland lacked large cities due in large part to the unique legal, cultural and political structure of Ireland. Most of the population of Ireland was rural and post-Christianity most political and economic activity in Ireland was centered around monestaries because there were few notable cities that early, even Dublin would not be founded until centuries later when the Vikings arrived. The Romans would have set up shop somewhere and they would have needed a city to govern from, even if they created it themselves and there would certainly be evidence of that whether the city began as an Irish settlement conquered by Rome or Roman occupation led to the creation of a new city. So stop saying there is evidence of a Roman conquest of Ireland, there is literally zero evidence to suggest that and it clashes with major known facts about ancient Ireland.

@Finn Spooner I don't think anyone ever claimed they didn't reach it. They conquered the island right next to it and held it for centuries, it's not a huge leap of logic to think maybe they sent people to check out the neighborhood.

Most Scottish people have English heritage and vise versa. So I find it deeply hysterical when Scottish people watch Brave-heart and want to start a revolt. But what's ironic is Brave-heart is inaccurate *See History Buffs* for full video. And the Scottish where the ones that United the Monarchy into the United Kingdom. Therefore we should be the ones voting for independence because we wasn't asked.

Scots Leid, whether you want to consider it a dialect or a language on its own right, is descended from the Northumbrian dialect of Old English, and is spoken by more Scots than Scottish Gaelic. People act like Scotland is some Celtic monolith that has nothing to do with England (aside from being victims), when in reality a large chunk of modern Scotland (and a lot of Scots themselves) used to be English. The Angle Kingdom of Bernicia, which later merged with Deira to form Northumbria, is in modern day Scotland. Throughout medieval history the borders between England and Scotland have changed a lot. Scotland used to be a lot smaller than it is today. It also used to belong to the Picts, but the Gael invaders who set up the Kingdom of Dalriada fought with the Picts for centuries, until they finally merged together in the 10th Century to form the Kingdom of Alba. It was Gaelic that caused the Pictish language to go extinct, not English. It's also not like England was never ruled by a Scottish monarch. So yes, you should love England, or at least not harbour misinformed hatred of it. The people in the comments sound like children, who's only grasp on history comes from films like "Braveheart" or "Michael Collins".
