Kings and Generals animated historical documentary series on the First Crusade continues with the aftermath of the battle of Civetot of 1096 ( • People's Crusade: Batt... ) during the so-called People's Crusade of the First Crusade and the battle of Nicaea of 1097 ( • Princes' Crusade Begin... ) as the Princes' Crusade began. The Crusaders continued moving into the Asia Minor and had to fight against the forces of the Seljuk Sultan of Rum Kilij Arslan in Dorylaeum ( • Battle of Dorylaeum 10... ) and after the victory over the sultan, the road to Syria was open, leading to the Siege of Antioch in 1097-1098 ( • Siege of Antioch 1097-... ), but the partial victory of the crusaders in this siege was followed by a counter-attack of various Seljuk generals, leading to the biggest battle of the First Crusade - the battle of Antioch ( • Biggest Battle of the ... ). In the aftermath of the battle, the crusade almost collapsed, as the infighting between the princes became too difficult to resolve leading to a Civil War like situation ( • Civil War of the First... ). Despite this situation, Crusaders managed to retain some of their unity and continued deeper into Syria, where they fought at Ma'arra. Unfortunately, that was the battle that turned them into cannibals ( • Battle that Turned Cru... ). The issues persists, but the majority of the remaining Crusader army finally reached Jerusalem and besieged it ( • Siege of Jerusalem 109... ). In the aftermath of taking Jerusalem, Crusaders needed to secure the city against the Fatimid counter-offensive, which led to the last battle of the First Crusade - the battle of Ascalon ( • Last Battle of the Fir... ). It was followed by the Crusade many consider to be the worst - the Crusade of 1101 ( • Worst Crusade - Crusad... ). In the aftermath, Crusaders lost the battles of Ramla and Harran, and one of them - Bohemond, decided to go on a first crusade against the Romans - Byzantine Empire, leading to the siege of Dyrrhachium of 1107-08 against the emperor Alexios.

Someone please help me! Does anyone know the name of the background music at 26:10 of K&G's Alexander Balkan Campaign video? Link here: th-cam.com/video/SndWlYj9zQM/w-d-xo.html
Hey Kings and Generals hope soon you get back on the Roman stuff since you still haven't finished post Caesar civil wars. Haven't seen one since the battle of Naulochus which was 3 months ago.
I didn't expect this great clip, this is probably one of your best series, the only thing I didn't like was the new animation for the french king his daughters, it's too much this one was the peak so far, I want to ask if there are subtitles for the member clips for the channel
Robert of Normandy didn’t die in battle but was instead captured by his brother during the battle of tinchebray and died in captivity decades after. Easy mistake to make :)
When will you make a video about the creation of the Khorezmshah Empire and about the last commander of Khorezmshah Sultan Jalal ad Din? and fought against the Mongols, who created the empire of Tamerlane from scratch ???
Alexios Komnenos is probably my favorite Byzantine emperor. That man never quit and was politically savvy.
Agreed, he’s the most interesting Byzantine emperor to learn about for me
Certainly a more complex human being than "prophet" Sex Award Winner (SAW) who is as easy to understand as the plot of a Johnnie Sins "movie"
IKR, whatever the opponent against Byzantium might be whether Robert Guiscard or Bohemond, Alexios is still the best and will always be...
Deserves to be in the same rank as Caesar (except in this case not for the Roman Empire but for Byzantium)
He kinda feels like Basil II, both failed, and were humiliated, but learning from theier mistakes, making an epic come back, and showing shrewd diplomatic tatics intead of ruining everything with arrogance like most byzantine emperors did so many times...I can hardly say wich one of the two is my favorite but I sure love both😄
@thebeatnumber You just couldn't help yourself could you? Dirtbag always feeling the need to show disrespect even in response to someone else's respectful comment.
Bohemond making a whole threatening speech only to be imediatly owned by Alexios is just so anticlimatic and hilarious.
An ignoble end for such a man but a well deserved one that is.
I haven't done any serious research about this dude but i wonder why he hated the byzantines so much
@@coffeerider786 failed conquest vengeance for his captivity in Danishmend hands and the fact that he wanted the throne and wealth of the Eastern Roman Empire.
@@CT--rg2fu
Yep. Eastern Roman Empire was just built different 😅
@@thalmoragent9344 considering the current situation of Latin Western Europe I wouldn’t be surprised that a covetous Norman would want a more comfortable and powerful realm.
"Bohemond's nephew only agreed to let the old man go after he swore that he wouldn't attempt to conquer any piece of land in the Levant. Raymond then proceeded to conquer a piece of the Levant for himself, but only this time, he did do it on Alexios's behalf."
One of the most LOL events in history...
"No, that's not a typo." 🤣🤣
@@Wolfeson28 IKR I was gonna say that but I thought it would be too long
Alexios Comnenus is one of the most skilled Roman emperors of all times, glad that he is getting at last some much needed attention.
Eraclius, gallienus and Alexander severus deserve much more credit
@@alessandrogini5283different era different circumstances.
I love how Bohemond's letter is about how awesome he is than he is humbled after being defeated by Alexios
Went from the I will burn your empire to the ground to Alexios is my daddy.
What a dip....
@@stepanrusinko2456
Byzantine is just built different 😅
I love the way K&G is continuing to document the events immediately following the First Crusade👌🏼
No one else is, and if they were it still would not be this good.
You love really easy we noticed
Bohemond: Send a very personal letter to Alexio, vowing to destroy the Roman Empire.
Alexio: Make preparations for the invasion
Also Bohemond: "Why can't I defeat the Romans?"
AlexioS
Raymond was the only Crusader lord to refuse the oaths, and in the end the only one to hold to them.
Alexios was one of numerous Roman emperors who brought the empire from the brink of extinction to new heights of power. Unfortunately, his method for doing so undermined core strengths of the empire in the long term and, absent a reformer member of the dynasty who could course correct, led to another collapse after Manuel's tenure came to an end. That doesn't lessen Alexios's importance or the remarkable, even miraculous, success and restoration that he led.
Finally the unknown battle to many at dyrrachium which bohemond meet his demise What a mastermind alexios was truly one of the best eastern Roman emperors and of course the founder of komnenos dynasty who took the empire from the brink of destruction to it's former glory as a major power
"You were supposed to fight with the Romans, not against them!"
- Alexios to Raymond
From my point of view the Romans are evil!
I am trying to find a good biography of Alexios Komnenos, but I simply can’t. What an exceptional politician and soldier.
What do you think about the Alexiad written by his daughter?
@@floreacalin54 I might need to research that further.
Alexiad is highly recommended
Alexiad is a very good one.
The Alexiad is a fantastic read and even tho its heavily biased, that makes it only more entertaining, since Anna Komnena depicts the Franks like "Noble Savages". Just take it with a grain of salt and you'll be good.
Where Bohemund was playing checkers, Alexios was playing 4D chess.
Was he? The crusader states remained Norman anyway
@@zxylo786 More Frankish than Norman.
The Romans (especially the Byzantines) had a tradition to treat their greatest enemies with humility from the time of Caesar and Pompey. It was probably a feat from experience to understand the complexity of the enemy situation, so that their enemies (or the deaths of their enemies in that regard) would not turn into a rallying banner for their followers to follow in the long term. Alexios is an underrated emperor and soldier for his decisions in warfare and diplomacy.
@@xunqianbaidu6917 It's so stupid to blame everything on a single man. He did all he could in his power to save a state that was on the verge of collapse when he ascended to its throne, he not only saved said state but turned it back into the dominant mediterranean force it always was. As for the dynastic politics, why, they had been taking place since the Macedonians. Like I'm sure you know that the Komnenians were not the first Roman dynasty lol. Yes, the bureaucracy eroded and degraded in its quality but that was bound to happen when an Empire loses like half its holdings within a decade. Let alone the fact that what they lost was their heartland, not frontier provinces and grain baskets as was the case in the 7th century.
but mortal enemies like Hannibal barca will never be thought of by the Romans
@XunQianBaiDu What choice did he have? He didn't have the luxury to think in the long term as the Empire was crumbling around him. He could only hope that his successors would implement more permanent solutions to Rome's problems.
The Romans literally humilliated and killed their most famous enemies on triumphs, look what happened to Vercingetorix.
@@xunqianbaidu6917you clearly do not study History Dynastic things of Roman Leaderships Started even in the Start Boy , also the Entire Political Structure of Eastern Roman was in Shamble because of the Disaster in Manzikert that led to the Loss of the Longest Roman Territory held (Anatolia) which the Primary Recruitment of Both Soldiers & Civil Servants and Majority of Taxes for the Empire by that Point the Empire needed to Survive and Survive immediately so Alexios has no Choice but too Feudalize the Political System from Semi-Feudalize/Central Political System under Macedonian Dynasty Yup.. Feudalism was being began in the Eastern Roman Empire by the Previous Dynasty the Macedonian its actually Basil II who Started it .
This glorious episode was unknown to me. This is great. Everything is great…from the background story to Bohemond’s clever arrival in Corfu and how Alexios outwitted him. I didn’t see in some time such a good K&G episode.
Thank you and good job! 💪🏼
Alexios' strategic genius saved the empire one more time!
That letter is peak writing. If I ever want to really rub in a triumph on some toxic enemy, now I've got an excellent reference.
Bohemond still lives as an absolute chad, his story is extremely impressive, he would be the perfect character to base a series on, his character arc is so incredible
Turk: Give me the money
Alexios letting go of Bohemond is another cunning play by Alexios not only does he wanted him to be martyr but he can use Bohemond if ever the Eastern Rome is threatened again. Knowing Bohemond is glory hound for war, he can call on him with some intrigue and diplomatic play again to his side, so letting him go and giving him another life is something he can use anytime if the Seljuks attacks again and they need some reinforcements from the west.
10:40
Gotta love Bohemonds evil villain monologue
Real life history has more twists and unexpected turns that even Game of Thrones.
Please keep on making these videos cause it helps me learn new/more historic events and battles and wars that I never even learned about or heard of
"I will not even grant you a Martyrs death." - Alexios to Bohemond, paraphrased.
I’ll take all of the Bohemond/Guiscard content available, please. I never tire of their machinations
Everything was covered, there are other channels on YT, you know?
Bohemond is my favourite character in the 1st Crusade.If for nothing else you have to appreciate his audacity.
I hadn’t heard about this event before. That’s why i love these videos
My only wish is that historians and historiographers alike would stop calling them “Byzantine”. I always thought the Eastern Roman’s considered themselves “Roman”.
Byzantines were Greeks with Roman citizenship. After seeing so many commenters playing games with the word "Roman" and trying to present medieval Greeks as the same people as the ancient romans I think it is for the best that the name "byzantine" is used. Most people don't know that the name "Roman" had a different definition during the medieval period. So using the term, while most people don't even understand what the Byzantines meant when they were using it, is pointless .
@gilpaubelid3780 fair enough. To me that makes sense. The medieval era in general was such a vast time period. And most ppl differ when those time periods often start and end. I guess for all simplicity’s sake I can dig it. I still prefer Roman, although I’m a quarter Italian so i guess im biased. Lol
@@gilpaubelid3780 Byzantines never existed, and the term is fallacious and should be discarded because it was born with the intention of denying the Romaness of the existence of the Roman Empire after 476 AD. The so called 'Byzantines' were Romans speaking Greek, not Greeks with Roman citizenship.
@@td2456 It's not that I entirely disagree with you because what you're proposing would be more accurate. But I believe that with the way that things are now people would only get confused. I would be in favor of it if people were more aware of the evolution of the term roman. If they knew that after the edict of Caracalla Roman citizenship was granted to every ethnicity that was part of the empire and after that point the name "Roman" became a mere political identity and was not exclusively linked to the ancient romans anymore. But look at the reply of "maltese" for example. People usually can't wrap their head around the fact that Byzantines were both Greeks (ethnicity) and Romans (citizenship). Because for them "Roman" identity isn't just a civic identity like it was during the byzantine period. For them Roman=ancient Roman and as a result "Greek" and "Roman" are two things that contradict each other.
@@maltesewonderdog1429 It's equally fallacious to take a word that had different definition during the byzantine period and was used by completely different people and pretend that nothing changed. According to Byzantines themselves they were Greeks and Roman citizens (Romans) , not "Greek-speaking Romans". That's not a personal opinion, that's based on the byzantine sources that have survived. You want to discard a term because it denies the Romaness of the state that the medieval Greeks controlled but at the same time you're misusing the name Roman and the political roman identity of the Byzantines in order to deny their greekness. How presenting the medieval greeks as something that they weren't is in any way better?
Great video again! But one little fact check: Robert of Normandy didn't die in battle, he died in captivity in England after losing to his brother.
Channel has been improving so much recently even with the small things!
Props to Alexios for always being one step ahead of everyone else
Beautiful animation and video as always Kings.
This was an excellent video. Thank you!!
Damn the Komnenos dynasty really knew how Manage the Empire Admiratively, Politically, Diplomatically, Militarily and Roguery.
Imagine if the 4th crusade didn't happen.
The 4th crusade happened for many reasons. The actions of Alexios Kommenos included
Fantastic video, please make more like this!
Never mess with Alexios.
Quite informative!! Although I am an avid fan of Roman history, this event is something I was unaware of. At least IF I had read anything about it, it sure wasn't covered so well!! Thus forgettable. Thanks much!!
Alexios and Bohemond, the greatest frenemies of the age.
Great as always
If Wizards and Warriors channel decided to cover about Myths or Moonrise, it will be awesome!
And such an irony to Bohemond himself, the man who started the Crusades ended up being sole surviving leader who died as a humiliated old man.
That was great I learned some new things I hadn't already read about.
Very Informative! Thx.
nicely done!
What a strategical master emperor Alexios!
Another good video thanks
The gravest insult in that letter was referring to Constantinople as Byzantium.😂
Basil II paved the way for Alexios. Both were determined and their willingness to lead armies settled their place on the throne.
This was really cool story, thanks!
He did say something about a breath of fresh air!!!!
Fantastic video! ⚔🔥🏹
Alexios takes a broke empire, with a low morale army, and with no Anatolia, and even his defeats and assassination attempts do not make him pause. and his diplomacy... wow. using the venetians was brilliant. too bad his son could not rebuild the navy to keep them in check.
Although to be fair John II retook more of Anatolia than Alexios or Manuel
But Manuel Did
@@tylerellis9097 he sank it trying to invade Egypt 😅
@@dillonblair6491 true. But financially the empire was not doing great, so could not invest in the army for quicker gains. And Manuel barely cared for Anatolia.
@@ragael1024 The victory against Venice after he jailed thousands of Venetians was after the Egyptian invasion, the navy stayed strong his entire reign.
And the Empire wasn’t broke, Infact this is the peak period for urban growth and wealth for Constantinople, Thessaloniki and Byzantine Greece. The problem was that it lost the manpower and officer recruiting ground of inner Anatolia and Armenia.
Loving the pithy sarcasm delivered in the usual deadpan narration. Brilliant 😂
You're doing a million dollar job. Keep it up. This is the way
The Komnenos Dynasty really defense a dying empire with cunning diplomacy. It's a shame this Franks folks only think avenging and titles.
We are the Franks, we are the Franks, we are, we are, we are the Franks awoooo
@@mrnice7570 *It is the shame that the latter Byzantine aristocracy cared only about power and would easily scapegoat Latins or make deals with Saracens to achieve their goals...
@@stranger__4956 The Byzantines were making deals with Muslim powers before, during and after the Crusades, that’s nothing new. There was no grand holy war between Christians and Muslims for them, the first crusade was designed and operated as a standard imperial
campaign for them. This view is one of the multiple cultural differences that made the Western States and Byzantium clash.
And Isaacs IIs harassment of Fredrick Barbarossa’s Crusade had nothing to do with an agreement with Saladin. It had to do with the fact Frederick was receiving and commuting to talks with the Rebellious Serbs and Bulgarians, as soon as he entered Byzantine territory at Nis he met with Stefen Nemanja, the leader of the Serbs who were rebelling against Byzantine authority. So Isaac was quite justified in hindering his advance.
Now the Latin Massacre, that’s an actual L on Andronikos Komnenos and thus Byzantium, that’s an actual valid moment to fault and blame the Byzantines.
@@tylerellis9097 Not to mention that the Crusaders arrived to Constantinople on the Angeloi's request and eventually the latter scammed the Crusaders of their promised reward for getting them back the throne.
@@stranger__4956
Wrong person, that was his Son Alexios IV, Isaac II was Emperor during the Third Crusade.
I don't think bohemond died a defeated old man, I think it's good he was able to grow old and live the remainder of his life with his family, that doesn't sound like a wasted life to me. Especially when the rest of the crusader leaders and countless soldiers died thousands of miles away from their homes and families.
My favorite channel keeps them coming were still waitihg on the Polish and Haitian revolution that happened together
The difference between the two letters is what makes this video interesting
If Alexios Komnenos had lived during the last years of the Western Roman Empire, there would have been a chance for the empire to live on
Sheer... f#cking... hubris...
As cool of a setup as it was to be like, "I fooled you and now I'm coming for you", this really speaks to the value of surprise.
Imagine if he raised & trained his army without signaling his intent a year early?
Ironic that the Crusaders would choose to do battle against the Seljuks at the very same place where the Parthians destroyed Crassus’ legions 1100 years earlier. Harran was the very site of the Battle of Carrhae. Only, the Turks could have taken a page from Surena and used their own equivalent of Cataphracts in their armies for the final coup de grace.
History repeats itself
Again, if not for the leadership of Alexios Komnenos, Eastern Rome would have ceased to exist in the 11th century.
Still cant believe that there isnt any series about Alexios or the Normans.
The Byzantines would've been better off had they made the Crusaders focus on retaking the eastern Anatolian mountains to reform the barrier.
I mean, it's not like the crusaders were listening to anything the Byzantines had to say, that's why they were even in the levant
@@dillonblair6491 They were actually following Byzantine orders until Antioch, Which the Byzantines deemed more important than Inner Anatolia as the Former 2nd city and military capital of the Empire that was actually lost while Alexios was Emperor in 1084.
The first Crusade took the route the Emperor wanted under the lead of the Byzantine general Tatikios, and probably have continued to do so if not for the fateful day the Crusader Deserter changed history
Lmao Alexios was such a chad.
The Eastern Roman Empire really was just built different. A shame that 1453 went down the way it did but, Emperor Constantine XI stood tall for the homies, to the very end 🥲
WOOO ANOTHER K&G VIDEO!!
Has to be one of the most epic speeches in history
Bohemont, 1105 : "Call the Crusade!"
His decendant, 40 000 years later : "WAAAAAAGH!!!"
Imagine still getting baited by feigned retreat, even after spending so much time in the East.
When letting your enemy live is even more cruel than killing them.
thank you
I love this channel.
Best series ever
It's pretty amazing what you can do when your primary way of making war is something your enemy is just utterly unprepared to contend with.
I would pick any K&G series over any historical drama on tv without a second thought!!!
I now crave more videos talking about the aftermath of famous events
what a badass letter
Thanks
Nice. looking forward to more squabbles between the princes and the storm kicked up between Baldwin/Bertran vs Tancred.
"Hello we're going to Jerusalem!!!". "Pull over,we make a detour here to visit our orthodox brothers!!!".
will you make a video about alexios' son, John the Good? highly underrated emperor, one of the best in the Kommenoi dynasty and some would argue, I would argue, a better emperor than even Alexios himself
How to do Crusaders Norman Style:
"Uh durrr... let's attack Christians. That'll show those Sarissons we meen business!"
Hi! Your videos are great! I always wondered how do you make those fighting montage. Do you use some kind of editing software? Or you use some kind of game to do it? Looking forward for my question to be answered. Thank you!
I remember after episode 14 was released than Khan Sid mentioned this series would have only 2 more episodes left, but even back then, knowing some of what was gonna happen throughout the 20 years following the Crusade of 1101, I was more than a little bit doubtful, expecting at least 1 additional episode. That feeling of mine only got stronger after seeing where this new episode leaves off.
Love The vid
You should really make a video about The Wild West (American Frontier) all em cowboys, outlaws livin like a true dreamist.
I'm always amazed when I see how efficient and fearless were Frank crusaders.
I try to understand how it was possible
@@jakedunnegan than 1000 tanks and 9000 infantry got beaten by 7500 weaponized Toyota Hiluxes similar to Chad vs Libya lol. Turks were resource effective hard to train a Horse Archer (which they had a lot because they raised in this way not a problem either) but they are low cost in materials and hard to kill.
@@jakedunnegan Seljuk Turks used composite bows even Byzantines tried to copy it but couldn't because they were unware of the animal tendons used in it they surely pierced casual infantryman is armour but for knights nope you need other stuff too.
@@jakedunnegan this nomadic or semi nomadic life made the Seljuks dynamic in Byzantine you may need strategikon for teaching city boys about wars but Seljuk kids were no city boys.
@@tatarcavalry2342 The Byzantines had been using the Avar type composite bow for centuries at that point bro what are you on about?
Please will you guys make a playlist of the music you use?
A pretty good lesson in the dangers of pride for everyone :)
That epic shaaaaade ! 😎
it would be cool if kings and generals did videos about South Sudan and Ethiopia
im soooo happy with this video and what's coming next, most people just end the 1st crusade when they take Jerusalem, so happy you are going all the way through with the Jihad, cant wait
wil you cover the norwegian crusade also with this series?
Bohemond was a brilliant leader and tactician, but he was against Alexios, and that made him a bit predictible
Maybe I'm repeating myself but I really want to know when is the next episode of the rise of the great Augustus coming out?
Harran was ancient Carrhae. Interesting to see the same tactics being used in two battles at the same location over 1100 years apart...
No way he posted another OG video ong fr
History did show how the arrogance of the Crusaders was their biggest weakness.
Absolutely not. That description fits the Byzantines way more. The biggest weakness of the crusaders was that there were no set objectives and too many leaders.
*ALEXIOS THE CHAD*
Another headache for Alexios Comnenus.
This looks like straight out of story or alternate history. Hell Bohemond here look similiar to Napoleon. I guess the humilation is such that the western Crusader chronicle reluctant to told the stories especially since Bohemond failed to achieved anything in his last Roman invasion
I guess that's why i only knew the end if rivalry between Bohemond and Alexios today
