Dont remind us about the game where the famous Skanderbeg who battled the Ottomans for several decades falls in a single battle and the following siege along with his whole country.

The almost constant state of war of medieval times always amazed me. If you look at Hungary for instance, even after the devastating invasion of the mongols, Béla organized various military campaigns almost every year.
Back then war wasn't as devastating. Modern day weapons can cripple entire regions for decades to come in matters of just a few minutes
Yeah, most of wars consisted of army sitting outside a castle, waiting for them to surrender. Battles were the exception, not the rule. And of course, peasants suffered, as the army sitting outside said walls had to get food somewhere, so the locals were "asked" to give it up. Wars mainly happened in the spring or summer, rarely in other seasons, so for an average guy, it wasn't as prevalent.
Interesting how often the pope was the major pacifying force in europe at that time. The combination of the threat and danger of excomunication and the glory of crusades were probably the best deterances of war back in those days.
People say its "less deadly" than modern warfare, considering the the army sizes and population sizes that's not really true. For example in this battle the Hungarians lost 1/3 of their army, that's an insane amount of causalities when compared to modern warfare (not including the world wars).
@@CrossBreedTacoHD Yes, but civilian casualties were relatively miniscule compared to more modern battles/wars. Just the Hiroshima bomb has the ability to kill more than a whole campaign from the medieval times.
How to beat the Hungarian army: Put a river between you and their army. They can't handle the logistics. Lechfield 955, Muhi 1241, Kressenbrunn 1260, Don River 1943. (I'm Hungarian btw)
At Mohi Mongols crossed the river to fight the Hungarians.
Kinda ironic their country is divided by the biggest river in non-Eastern Europe.
Battle of Cer 1914
@@ElBandito Yea but the loss was do to Béla IV not recognizing there could be more crossing points on the flooding river.
@@nestor_srb Oh yea that one as well. Kinda shows how unprepared was the imperial army. They lost repeatedly on all fronts until the end of the war when that joke Genaral Hötzendorf was replaced.
Oh, the good old times of the great Czech kingdom! Thank you BazBattles
! Amazing work as always.
btw, at 3:02 the dying king says "Good luck" to his son.
Mě pobavilo :D
As a Czech I am suprised that you made a video about us. But yet, I am AMAZED!
Nezdá se to, ale během středověku za vlády Přemyslovců a později Lucemburků jsme byla evropská velmoc
@@pavelh756 Vím
@@pavelh756 Furt říkám, že se u nás dějiny 13. až 15. století učí bídně. Jeden se prakticky nedozví, že jsme byli součástí HRE (podle mě nějaký pozůstatek socialismu, kdy se to prostě nehodilo do krámu). Osobně preferuji variantu, že český král byl v tomhle období po císaři (nebyl-li jím sám) zpravidla nejmocnějším mužem v HRE.
"Velmoc" jsme byli maximálně v rámci ŠŘŘ, při největším v rámci Střední Evropy, ale určitě ne v rámci Evropy jako takové.
It is great, especially the part where the hungarians lose for being cheaters. Kingdom of Bohemia was a force to be considered in Medieval times. Love from Wallachia, on the other side of Hungary.
Cuman riders: leeerooooyyyy jenkins
Hungarian infantry:fugggg
yep. thats how it happened.
lmao
dumbass cuman riders
I laughed too hard with this 😂😂😂
i feel quite hungary,..... oy wait, did somebody say CUMAN?!!!
Ottokar to Bela: "ok, so this is boring, I'll just let you pass so we can start killing each other."
Bela's troops: "lllllleeeeeeerrrrrrrooooyyyy jjjjjaaaannnnckinnnngggggs"
I've always wondered how you create these maps. Its such a good aesthetic that manages to give an 'old timey' feel as well as showing details without being crowded.
Do you make them? if so what do you use... and more specifically how do you create those beautiful mountains.
The terrain shading could be based on open source topological data, combined with a simple color ramp.
@@Lttlemoi
Nope, it's a historical map of some kind as a basis. In the Netherlands the province of Flevoland isn't shown. That entire province was reclaimed from the sea in the second half of the 20th century.
Many get it wrong. The videogame Caesar III for example showed 20th century Flevoland in Roman times.
That's what impress me more. I'm trying to make some RPG games and for that I had to learn how to make maps but still I suck at it ... and then this guy just make the most awesome maps I ever seen ... how?!
@@ianwkamiya using real life references most likely
At 8:52 Béla IV. says "Cat kick it!" which is an older Hungarian way of saying "damn it"
Also, he has a nickname, the Second Founder (the first being Árpád, who conquered the Carpathian Basin in the 9th century), which was given to him due to his enormous and largely successful efforts to repopulate and rebuild the Kingdom of Hungary after the Mongol invasions of 1241-42. Due to this (and other factors), he is considered to be among the greatest of Hungary's kings.
It's incredible because less than a week ago I was just reading about the first and second mongol invasions of Hungary.
I was amazed by the work of Bela IV.
Hungary and Poland helped a lot to preserve Europe from Eastern invasions. Spain too in Lepanto. They are a bit undervalued.
The first one was István. You know, the one who founded the kingdom.
Tamás Molnár King Stephen I. founded the Hungarian state. However, the land of the Carpathian Basin was claimed by Árpád, for which he is commonly referred to as "the founder of the country."
So, the First Founder is Árpád, and the Second Founder is Béla IV.
Saint Stephen founded the state, so he is regarded as a different kind of founder, the only one who founded the Kingdom.
> enormous and largely successful efforts to repopulate the Kingdom of Hungary ...
What do you mean - 'efforts to repopulate'? ... Emmm.... Does it mean what i think?
@@VasilyKiryanov Yeah, he walked across Hungary and impregnated everything, that moved... Truly greatest king of them all!
Hey, nice video!
As a Hungarian it's interesting to see that what other's see about certain events. In the school we have been told that it was Ottokar's evil plan to lure out Béla. :D
I would like to see an episode about the Siege of Eger in 1552 tho, where the Hungarians managed to defend a keep with 2.300 men against the 35.000 strong Turkish army. That era of Hungarian history is quite exciting.
As a Pole I would say that every era of Hungarian history is interestnig :)
Hello brother!
Evil or tactically sound? Possible both I'd say lol
As a Czech from Czech republic-czech books are recording both preserved versions and do not hide that it might be less heroic in case Bohemian side gained victory through betrayal.
Yes! I'd love to see more of this part of Europe on this channel.
Poitiers
I'm living only few kilometers in distance from this battlefield and have no idea about such event.
Nice inspiration for trip.
Thanks from Bratislava.
Baz Battles back to European Battles YEEEEE
topatheo I must admit I enjoy the Japnese ones equally as much :-)
@Felix Helix Bohemia is VERY interesting
@Felix Helix I too
When Austria wasn’t a significant power
it was, there were actually many austrian nobles fighting on Ottokars side. Both hungarian and 'bohemian' army were multinational.
Armies then were almost always a blend of "nationalities."
Statehood and national identity didn't really exist.
Wasn't but rise of Austria or rather Habsburgs is directly connected to events after this and Ottakar's failed ambitions.
It did exist just not as much as later on@@artemisentreri-isaacs3059
Excellent job ! Once you come to describe Hussite wars, 15th century, when peasants used to excellent use wagon forts to defeat mounted knights, I am ready to help ! Their tactic (how to defend wagons on the move) is used by armored columns to this very day.
I feel so Bohemian right now.
I feel Bohemain like you.
It depends actually . In france the word bohemian mean gypsies of Czech .
In history boiis was germanic tribes that was originated from modern days czech and some of them have settled in the po valley in northern italy .
The romans gaved the name Boiohaemum (bohemia in english and it meand , home of the boiis ) to the lands they originated from .
Today many slavs claim that they are Bohemians but they are not . They live in the land of boii but they must be at least half german to be considered bohemians .
@@LauftFafa Gods! So much bullshit. Boii were a Celtic tribe (Germanic tribes living in modern Czechia were Marcomani and Quadi, who have asimilated the celtic populace). None of Slavs identify as celtic people, although most aknowledge partial (although small) heritage (assimilation of assimilators of...you know the rest).
I’m Bohemian right now.
Czech yourself before you wreck yourself.
Lol Poland supporting both armies be like "You got a bat, and you too, now fight each other to death I'm gonna have some fun watching"
Its not Poland but different lords of duchies have different interest
At the time Poland was extremly devided, it somehow resembled the Holy Roman Empire. There were many small duchies which constantly fought each other, and prince of Kraków (who was nominally the ruler of whole country) had very little authority. Thus, these duchies had diffrent interest, and here Prince of Kraków Boleslaw V supported Hungarians while Silesian supported Bohemians.
In these times being king didn't mean you had complete control over your vassals. They could and often did form alliances with foreign powers. This is why being king back then meant you always had to ensure your vassals loyalty. One measure to achieve this was justifying their power as granted by god himself. Having the biggest army also helped. Being king was hard work.
I know I know, I'm polish, I know my history, and I know that politics weren't simple back then, it was just a joke guys
Poland had it cover doesn't matter who gonna win lol
Love this channel so much. It makes imagining how battles went a lot easier.
Theirs nothing better than watching a new baz battles video.
I absolutely love bazbattles, I truly wish there was some capacity for me to help this channel pump out more videos. They are the absolute highlight of my day when they come out.
You can show your support by heading over to the Patreon. The more people people that throw money at him, the more this could be an actual viable full-time thing
There are few better feelings than opening up TH-cam to find out BazBattles has posted something new.

God I love this channel so much.
God I love your profile picture so much
You guys have really nailed the last couple of videos! Looking forward to more!
This is the channel that keeps on giving. Thanks for another awesome video!
Man, I love your videos so much. Even your Gods & Glory ad was enjoyable to watch, lol. Thanks for all the great content you provide Baz.
River crossing is a dangeorous affair, but it is all the more impressive when a commander manages to pull it off successfully, like Granicus or Caá Guazú.
Sees a new BaxBattle Video. Instantly drops everything to watch it :D
Keep it up BazBattles, you really make any part of history interresting, best battles videos on youtube, great channel.
Love your work! Dont stop making these!!!!
I was expecting another Sengoku Jidai video, the Kawanakajima video had me in my seat, it was pure jacked up hype even if it was just rectangles smashing each other.
But this is fine too.
These videos always have me on the edge of my seat. Great stuff.
You enjoy watching rectangles smashing each other dont cha you perv
To be honest I hate that weaboo stuff. Never could bring myself to watch them
There were a lot of other battles during that time period and a whole korean campaign even.
dikaiopolis ho That is really childish.
I respect other channels which have similar formats as u like kings and Generals or history Marche but u are always gonna be the og
I was expecting the comment section to be full of Czechs and Hungarians arguing over who attacked first
Cumans attacked first... so neither gets points in this contest.
Even as a Czech I would quite believe that King Otakar was the one who attacked first (he was ruthless his campaign to power), but I heard that no serious historian would side with either Czech or Hungary for lack of conclusive evidence.
frankly. who cares? if ottokar did indeed attack first he was smart in taking advantage to win. in the hungarians attached first without the support of the rest of their army across the river, they are foolish. either way bohemia wins.
Bohemia please! Something like a Czech nation, peoples or identity didnt exist at that time. And the aristocracy mostly had only their own dynastic agenda. Switching countries and territories like pawns on a chess board. And like today they mostly were related one to another. They had morr in common with each other then with their "countrymen".
@@Astuga WTF!? Czech nation already existed during that time you uneducated Idiot!
i really love this format of videos
Its some type of holiday when bazbattles releases video. Great job
važení BazBattles, udělali jste mě obrovskou radost
Never knew about this battle. Thanks! Great job.
Hope to see more videos soon, your content is perfecto
Glad you made a video about this battle, since its one of the best examples how devastating could be a charge of a heavy cavalry in the medieval warfare
Finally a video from Baz battles.
You teased us with the Mongols again. Please do some battle videos about them!
At the end when you said "the rest of his story has yet to be written" I immediately pictured an 800 year old guy still ruling Austria.
Finally! Someone made video about this forgotten battle!
I think it would be really cool to see a modern rendition of a battle, like the battle of Normandy beach or a German blitzkrieg. You probably get a bunch of these types of suggestions, but I hope you consider. Absolutely love your videos!
Hell yeah! Iron and Golden King rides!

And hearing you say Přimda was worth too, im from cz, Ř is hard for foreigners
Also appreciate the czech language there, really spot on with these
Awesome comment :D
I really like these videos. I'd love to see a series on the rise of Chingis Khan and the Mongol invasion of Europe. I would also REALLY love a series on the life and battles of Vlad Tepes.

Hello from Brazil!🇧🇷
Today this village is called Groißenbrunn. I live in a village just to the southwest of it.
Not far to the north are the small towns of Dürnkrut and Jedenspeigen, where one of the most important battles of Austrian history took place. I hope it will get featured soon...
So it is called Bigger Brno?
@@mr_george7761 The exact meaning is unknown.
"Groißen-" most likely doesn't stem from "Groß-", which would mean "Big/Great". It's the result of a sound shift; Groißenbrunn was called "Gressenbrunn" during the 18th century and "Kressenbrunn" during most of the Medieval Era. The earliest mention is in a document from 1157 as "Chressinprunen".
"Brunn" definitely means "fountain" or "well"; in modern German it's "Brunnen" (similar in pronunciation to the medieval "-prunen").
"Chressinprunen" and even more so "Kressenbrunn", which was the name with the longest period of use, most probably means "fountain surrounded by (water)cress". ("Kresse" refers to both water and garden cress in modern German.) Today's "Groißenbrunn" is just the result of language evolving over time and the original meaning getting lost.
Wow 👌👏 thanks for video :)
Yes another video!!!!
Béla IV could also deserve his own video, am I right?
GOOD JOB baz battles 🌸
I suggest u complete the series of the crusades .. second and third , it would be interesting story .. please 🌱
Keep up the great job u do
Was about to go to sleep, guess not now
Thank you 4 these awesome videos!! U should make more videos about hungarian battles cause this and Lechfield were so great!
