      How about an option to end a war without the enemy being 100% exhausted, all their forts sieged down and completely out of manpower? That's why I like the peace in CK2, despite its simplicity. One big battle and you get like 40% warscore already.

    This channel is so underrated (probably also because of the youtube algorithm). The ammount of research and work and the quality of information are a few times better than many popular history yt channels. Your research is always one step ahead of most channels I know. I really apreciate how you're willing to dig deeper into subjects seemingly well-known like the king Venceslaus carol video or this one. Keep up your great work. If I was earning my own money, I'd definetely become a patron.

      M. Laser I’m sorry. I just watched the video, and I agree you did significantly more research than other TH-camrs. Still, I believe this subject is over saturated on this website, which is more of a commentary on history youtubers than you specifically. When I saw the title I assumed you were going to be like every other channel and repeat the same facts with minimal commentary or historical opinion. This is a good video.

      @@esjb1191 Majority of the Bolognese army wasn't actually in the city. They scattered to the surrounding country side with most of the infantry just going home, which where mostly farms. It was primarily just the cavalry that managed to get back to the city so at that point they had much less numbers than the Modenese. Also, It is definetly safe to assume that the Modenese wouldn't have thrown the party if they knew there was any chance of a counter attack. Lastly, there was internal strife in Bologna after this as dividing factions couldn't decide on what to do next. Appeal to the pope, ask for peace, etc. It would be hard to muster an attack in such a state.
