You’ve got some wild times ahead of you - I recommend reading about the rise of the Carolingians and the settlement of Iceland! Two topics overshadowed by more noteworthy history (Charlemagne and the Viking Age in general respectively)
Same. Just the idea of being some dipshit slavic tribe and conquering and settling effectively wilderness and turning it into the most powerful state within the HRE for the several centuries is so cool, but we barely talked about it back in history classes
I love that at 33:00 he perfectly explains why the Viking raids worked. Its just way too expensive to constantly have armies raised to beat them back. It would be easy but costly.
Bruh, almost 3,000 hours in this game, several hundred which come after the Wards and Wardens DLC and I have NEVER gotten the “child of destiny” event or the strong and shrewd events. What the heck.
I had a medieval history course for college last semester that covered this subject and man is it interesting. It increased my love for this time period especially with learning about these Germanics being their own distinct people but incooperating the remnants of the Roman administration and making sense of Catholicism as they viewed it stronger than their Germanic Gods due to Christians winning battles against them amongst many other factors.
My man Laith, I’ve been loving these fallen eagle videos! Such a fascinating mod and I hope they expand it even more in the future! Amazing video as always!
Can I just state that the child who appeared to your court out of no-where was 0 years of age and a gambling adventurer... Man what have I done with my 28 years of life when a 0 year old child has already adventured and become a gambler...
It would be interesting to see if the Karlings are in any bookmark.m Maybe emulate their rise to glory using the Regent/Diarchy mechanics to usurp the Merovingians!
Can you maybe try saving the Kingdom of Soissons, who got conquered by the franks you played in this video, would be great, since it’s the last Roman rump state :)
I just did a playthrough of this exact character for the same reason. Managed to unite the franks just like he did irl, then after he died I created a new empire under the Frankish kingdom title.
Heating your apartment with your PC alone is the most efficient way of heating, as you're using the PC anyway and the heat it generates is otherwise wasted energy. Your PC essentially operates at 100% thermal efficiency until your apartment is heated.
That event where you make your child awesome is great. I got it for two of my daughters when playing as the Muslim Zunbil's in the Iranian Intermezzo so I couldn't set them as heirs
I figured out how to avoid the struggle for Britannia in this mod, basically as Britannia start the game normal and declare independence before West Rome releases you. Anglo Saxons still try invading but things aren’t apocalyptic like normal.
To be fair, heating your room through your computer is actually an efficient way in that it's waste energy from you doing your job. So inefficient on time, makes a waste energy no longer a waste energy.
They need more event for children like that in vanilla. That kid became alpha af and it was because of that event. Be awesome to have those kinds of events in vanilla that just give you these awesome heirs.
Cool Idea: Try to survive as a Christian state in Iberia during the Muslim invasions. (Idk if the invasions of Iberia are scripted in the bookmark but ok)
Man do you ever try to develop your empire are big and only 5000≈6000,i don't have your luck to exoand like you but have like 10000 one tike as abbasid got 50k man
Its always nice to hear more about History, this time with the Merowingians. Frankia looking good today. Also Laith, did you join Hogwarts as a Ravenclaw? You certainly look like one, I dont make the rules. Here are some quotes again: "Here is your son, lover, friend back" "I guess we have to kill a lot of children" "Hey, Im having fun with my child" wtf 😂
Arthurian-Early Medieval Era Europe my Beloved❤️ Still waiting for someone to do a Cymru playthrough and become a Western Roman Successor State ala Empire of Prydain. One day, one day...
i am frankish in the german rhineland, it kinda annoys me to always see people confuse the frankish empire with France. Franks are a germanic tribe, and french are a gallo romans who got conquered and then mixed with some franks, but they are not the same. why is France disunited? because it is not France
France is the land of the Franks, the Franks always refused to be merged with other Germanic tribes. You can’t claim being Frankish, the tribes times are over. The inheritance goes to the heirs of the Franks, which is France, the country of the Franks. Just like the Mongols for Mongolia, or the Kazakhs for Kazakhstan.
@LeVraiCG7 wow this is so wrong i dont even know where to start. it is a simple fact that 1. they were germanic and 2. did not even originated in modern day France. once they conquered Gaul and the gallo-roman population there they did not left all their original homeland in modern day german rhineland and the lowlands. thats why France still speaks a latin language while actuall frankish developed into Old Low Franconian (Old Dutch) and Old High Franconian which dissolved with other West Germanic varieties into Old High German while only influencing old French to seperate it from other latin languages. keeping the name of the Franks doesnt make you frankish, especially because the eastern part (Germany) was still called East Francia after the treaty of Verdun. it would be like saying Alexander the Great was north macedonian, just because they kept the name of it. and i wasnt talking about the Franks merging with other germanic tribe, the situation in the eastern part was simple that while the franks still existed in Rhine/Main area, the swabians and saxons for example also existed and once the last carolingian king died in East Francia they simply did not called the whole empire frankish, but the franks living in it did not diasappear. so not all germans are franks, but the rhine/main area are all their decendants. same example for Alexander the great, he was greek and macedon, but that doesnt make all greeks macedons. and the franks never commited a genocide on the gallo-roman population in gaul, so those who migrated (and again, not all migrated) simply mixed with the population already present there my ancestry goes directly back to some lower frankish nobility in rhineland, so yes i am frankish
@@sebe2255 The Franks became Latinized, first mostly by serving the Roman Empire and the rest by being conquered by the Merovingians. Clovis, founder of the Frankish kingdom, adopted Christianity and Latin as the language of the kingdom. The French language is a Latin language with Frankish pronunciations. Those who kept the Frankish Germanic language were those who did not follow Frankish/French rule and remained in the conquered lands, and therefore served the ennemies of the Franks
laith is probably giggling like a little girl inside getting to play as the merovingians (he has managed to bring them up in almost every video)
You have no idea. They’re so interesting! Their decline specifically was super cool!

@TheSocialStreamers I just started a medieval course at uni, they are really interesting
My grandfather just died two hours ago, I’ve got work in 7 hours and haven’t eaten dinner yet, but dang do I wanna see you bring the Franks together

May his memory be a blessing.

Did you know there's a space mod for ck3 that anyone can use so in the future we might get some Star Wars and dune mods
I need this mod name. Now.
Granted my laptop takes three hours to load up a regular game and I need to look into getting a new PC.

Laith do you ahve a list of mods you used in this video?
The lack of discussion of magical sea cows and their role in the ancestry of your empire disappoints me
He's lustful, honest, and sadistic.
At least he's honest.
does laith know that if he goes into the military tab he can find the rally point there he doesn't need to scan the map for it
Wasn't the batlle of tours way further up north in france? I remember wenn I first looked it up I was amazed at how far the muslims had reached.
They need more event for children like that in vanilla. That kid became alpha af and it was because of that event. Be awesome to have those kinds of events in vanilla that just give you these awesome heirs.
i love the historical insight
Thank you for the advice Laith I will go to the casino to pay off my student loans
Whats the ui mod? Does it come with the mod featured in the video?
Assume Laith has read Gregory of Tour?
I’m quite sure Clovis was the founder no?
which mods do have among fallen eagle?
What map graphics mod is that?
When will Laith get his hair fixed
I’ll go bald one day

Why is there absolutely not a single Visigothic oe anything visigoth related videos or playthroughs in ck3 ?
