the heroic epic "Last Stand" from Sabaton stands in such a great difference to the squalor of the people, the brutality of this war and blatant power politics of all involved. Great song tho (:
This day 3 years ago I was in Rome with my school. I was a tour guide for that trip and when were were at the Castel Sant Angelo I told our group about the sack of Rome and of the 189 Swiss guard made brave last stand.
Romans: "Could you please not sack our city...FOR FIVE MINUTES!?" Gauls, Visigoths, Vandals, Ostrogoths, Normans and Charles V's mercenaries: "What beautiful monuments you have, guys!" 😎
@@AureliusLaurentius1099 actually no, while the romans where famous for their civil wars no emperor deared to sack rome, the only men under roman employ who had was Ricimer but he was a german traitor trying to kill emperor Anthemious
The Holy Roman Emperors could not accept the universal authority that the pope claimed for himself as the leader of Christendom. Resulting in the sack of Rome so many times!

Could you tell me more about the Schmalkaldic league and the connection with Venice? I feel like in the context of Italy, Venice is mostly ignored but was a constant thorn in the eyes of the Habsburgs (Friuli, Istria) which would eventually lead to the Uskok war or War of Gradisca from 1615-1618? Thank you if you respond
Hello K&G I love all your videos and have been watching you for 2 years straight almost every day I've got some Pacific war videos to watch after this!
Not concerning this topic but rather the Ottoman Wars videos. Looking at the map, I always thought that small parts of Croatia proper and Hungary managed to fend of the Ottoman Invasion and aligned themselves with the Habsburgs. Could you please make a video about this subject? You have mentioned Katzianer and Šubić Zrinski already, but what about the battle of Sisak and the foundation of Karlovac or the Vlach infighting and the Statuta Valachorum? You did mention the friction between Hungarian and Transylvanian protestants and catholics but the same thing happened in Northern Croatia and modern day Slovenia, as did the peasant revolts. Hope you expand your Ottoman Wars content, we Slavs would surely appreciate it. Thank you for this video and for everything you've covered!
Even though Charles V didn't want the Sack of Rome to happen, the message was still clear; Don't anger the Emperor. Clement VII refused to help Henry VIII because Catherine of Aragon was Charles V's aunt and didn't want to get his capital sacked again. The first time was negligence, but the second time might have done....only this time with the Emperor's approval and consent.
At around 10:15 you say that Odet marched along the ADRIATIC coast to reach Naples, but on the map, he's nowhere near the Adriatic. He's shown marching along the TYRRHENIAN coast, on the opposite side of Italy.
I remember this Sack of Rome from an Argentinian historieta called Dago, a comic book about a Venetian noble betrayed and then sold to the Ottomans, pretty much set in most of the XVI century.
I'm an even more simple man. I hit the like button before I watch the video, otherwise I might forget to do so at the end.( I'm in my eighties, and can be forgetful, as well as simple)
I feel bad for the veterans in the battle of Ceresole. To hold your ground and win your flank on the field of battle only to be told the rest of the army retreated, then get butchered as you try to surrender. Humans are the most vicious creatures, I swear haha.
Yeah you guys weren't afraid to get your noses dirty back in those days. Still you can see how the unique geography and politics of Switzerland manifested itself through history and it's cool to see how unique it was/is.
Are you serious? "One of the few moments"? Did you forget about Morgarten? Sempach? Nancy? And many other moments. You have a lot to be proud of in terms of Swiss military history.
Casual Historians, after seeing the title of the video: Epic stand of Swiss guard during Saco di Roma. Me, as a man of culture, fully appreciating the video's thumbnail: The gallant stand of the French reserve under the army's commander Francois de Bourbon, Count of Enghien was so disastrous that the general even intended to stab himself and die. Fortunately, the gendarmes and their leader persevered, not only halted advance of tercios and landsknechts, but rather remarkably, many of the knights captured 15 or even 20 of the imperials each, who slaughtered their noble comrades just few minutes ago, nevertheless begging for mercy and protection from certain onslaught by victorious Gascon and Swiss foot! This deserves to be immortalised. 🥲
The greatest loser from the sack of Rome apart from the citizens of Rome and the papacy itself, was Henry VIII of England. As the subsequent vassal position that the pope asumed in respect of Charles and the tentative rapprochement betwen them over the next few years, put pay to any chance of him getting a divorce from Charles aunt.
Hungary part of the map is wrong. Before 1526 (Battle of Mohac), Hungary was not under rule of Habsburgs. It was an independent kingdom. Also after 1526, the most of Hungary was under Ottoman rule excluding Croatia, west of the Balaton Lake and north Hungary. So, Ottoman rule had never reached the center of Croatia and near city of Graz.
It would also be great if you would cover the Guelph and Ghibelline wars, particularly the war between the pope and the Hohenstaufen dynasty, as well as the Northern Crusades, thanks!
It was an achievement worth consideration for the Italian to be able to keep bitching among themselves while Spain, Germany and France kept taping the peninsula and sacking cities for sport! 774-1840: a millenium of great successes!
I read a book about Catherine De Medici, it actually got turned into a show recently, which I haven't watched. But I'm forgetting if the Italian wars continue into her time as regent. They definitely continued with her husband Henry II. I think she was too preoccupied with the French Wars of Religion and managing her sickly, young, incompetent children to focus on Italy, even if she was Italian herself. I also think Charles V's heir Philip II was too busy with England and the Netherlands to bother much with Italy
Henry II and then Francis II deaths destabilized France and for the next 4 decades they had to fight the Wars of Religion. It wouldn't be until Henry IV's reign that France would bother the Habsburgs again - in the Netherlands and then in Italy, Germany and Spain.

Also after 1526, the most of Hungary was under Ottoman rule excluding Croatia, west of the Balaton Lake and north Hungary. So, Ottoman rule had never reached the center of Croatia and near city of Graz.

At this point, sacking Rome is German tradition
The Italian Wars is too confusing for me to comprehend. A bunch of dudes mutinied and broke the truce to sack Rome and a cardinal joined them?
I read a book about Catherine De Medici, it actually got turned into a show recently, which I haven't watched. But I'm forgetting if the Italian wars continue into her time as regent. They definitely continued with her husband Henry II. I think she was too preoccupied with the French Wars of Religion and managing her sickly, young, incompetent children to focus on Italy, even if she was Italian herself. I also think Charles V's heir Philip II was too busy with England and the Netherlands to bother much with Italy
Henry II and then Francis II deaths destabilized France and for the next 4 decades they had to fight the Wars of Religion. It wouldn't be until Henry IV's reign that France would bother the Habsburgs again - in the Netherlands and then in Italy, Germany and Spain.
If you speak of the year of 1527, Sabaton fans will come.
