this is a pathetic attempt to excuse what is 100% intentional misinformation. I hope everyone sees your comment and unsubscribes like me. Panzer does not mean tank in any way. Even in a modern sense it means armour. The work tank is only in English and exists because of ww2 misinformation tactics used by the British. It doesn't have a translation into other languages as they refer to heavy vehicles as armour. It means armoured (or shielded/shelled) rider and nothing else. Panzer is not an English term either, this is more misinformation from you to justify your initial crap. It is not a loan word as the modern term translates directly to the English word 'armour' and has no separate meaning. Pure BS from this channel. Just admit you made a mistake next time and your research was not good enough. I am 1 minute in and have already noticed several glaring mistakes other than this. Did you hire a new researcher or something because this is absolute garbage that nobody should believe a word of.
Not to be pedantic, but how can the literal translation be ''tank cavalry'' when tank is a term that came to be during WW1? Would not armored or protected be a better translation?
Clergy not being able to inherit wasn't so clear cut in the early middle ages though. Even in the times and places where it was official policy it was not always enforced. It's only from the great schism that it really became the law (in the west).
@@nath9091 Their relatives could very well be factored in. By choosing a clergyman from a certain family the king could also bind his family closer to himself as loyalty to the king was rewarded with high positions in the kingdom.
It actually created problems. The Church had to institute celibacy. Bishops and cardinals were passing on Church wealth to their children. They were bankrupting the Church. A policy of celibacy continues to this day.
Is/will there be a special exhibition about the art from the abbey? As an artist myself I'd like to see more about it. (Don't worry I will visit the museum and abbey anyway next time I'm in Konstanz)
@@adrianmartin1308 the exhibition shows some of the most outstanding illuminations made in Reichenau abbey - but only until 20 October 2024. On the monastery island you can visit the Church of Saint George with its unique wall paintings. Furthermore there is the cathedral treasury with a lot of goldsmith‘s works.
Very nice to see my two longest-running historical interests--ecclesiastical history and military history--meet in the same video. Thanks for putting this together! I also have to recommend Philip Schaff's incredible work as an excellent resource for ecclesiastical history through the ages.
Suprising aspect of monastery life. I grew up near Reichenau and must say that the current exhibition is indeed an extraordinary event. Although well acquainted with Reichenau's history from childhood, I have never seen such an exhibition showing all the pieces at one place which usually can be found only distributed all over Europe.
Mount and Blade does not feature much historical realism. The whole notion of random nobody riding around the land, recruiting peasants who would have been a part of some feudal lord's fief is pure and utter nonsense. It's like saying "Oh, so that's why the aliens are attacking me in Space Invaders" after watching the X Files show.
I recently visited Bornholm (Denmark) and Lübeck (Germany), and a significant portion of the local history is on the subject of Danish-Hansa conflicts. Bornholm was controlled by the Archbishop of Lund, and he is framed as the main enemy of the Lübeckers of the time, having his own personal army and everything. It's interesting that the Danish king is rarely mentioned in relation to the Hansa around Bornholm, as the Archbishop controlled the island through several round-churches and at least 2 local castles, one of which, Hammershus, is the largest fortress ruin in Denmark. One of the local guides even said that the fortress was an important asset of the Archbishops during periods of opposition to the crown.
@dylanmilne6683 Agreed! The Baltic was for a long time as important to Northern Europe as the Mediterranean was to South Europeans, facilitating massive amounts of trade, a connection to the silk road, and the development of city-states and proto-capitalism. Yet because its influence vained in relation to Atlantic and global trade, it's largely forgotten about today.
thank you for still making content without relying on possibly shady sponsorship. hopefully you can collaborate with museums and other historical preservation organisations in the future
Always a viewing pleasure. The breakdown makes the information easy to absorb, the calm narration and visual aids further help and keep me focused. This video would be a prime example of why I spend so much time watching educational content on this platform.
Quite an interesting part of history when European monarchy and royalty was in its early formative stages. I knew early (Western) European rulers relied on the Church for a time but had no idea it was this important. Would love to see a comparison to its Byzantine neighbours (but well, I am a romaboo so of course).
@@caioalmeida4139 I might not remember correctly but am nearly sure that, during the time of Otto I & II, modern Western Europe was divided into East and West Francia.
Quite interesting and new for me. Reichenau-Abbey was well known for its scriptorium and the famous books it produced .Herman the lame was an interesting monk at reichenau(Early scientist and composer)
Exactly. to use "tank" as translation for Panzer, is just VERY SLOPPY and does completely not fit the era, since the word tank was used since the first WW for armored vehicles in English. The Germans used simply the word for armor.
I am a Medieval History major and I had the pleasure of studying the books of the great Hagen Keller on Northern Italy; you did a fantastic job in summarizing such a complex issue as the military dimension of ecclesiastical powers.
Awesome video, as usual. I like how you choose less talked about topics, and go in debt. Also unluke other history focused channels you use the local names, rather than english or french ones (for example Gerrmanics are Karl, rather than Charles, and so on...). Thank you for your hard work.
This is an incredible coincidence. I wrote a paper on exactly the same list of Panzerreiter, and also found the clerical involvement to be the most interesting part.
Your videos are trurly amazing! The topics are intresting, they are also very accurate to the historian knowledge! Also you are able to present it in very attractive form. In my opinion your channel is one of the best history channels I've ever watched!
FYI, "Panzer" does not mean "tank". Panzer translates to armored as in panzerschiffe (armored ship or armored cruisers), panzerkamfwagon (armored war wagons), or panzerzug (armored train). Panzer (or gepanzerte) reiter is an armored rider or armored horseman, not tank rider. The term "tank" did not exist yet so it can not be a literal translation.
I learnt about the Imperial Church System from History of Germans podcast. It ended after the Concordat of Worms. Emperors had donated lot of lands and rights to Bishops over the centuries, which they had got access to by selecting the bishops who would be. But during reign of Salian Henry 4, who was a child when he acceeded there was an enterprising Pope who wanted to wrest control of all those lands which Emperors had donated over the years, and started the Investiture controversy
This is a hugely great video. I’ve not seen a video before. That covers, medieval religious forces, and other power dynamics, such as manor lords, knights and Yoemen, who are different in ways, as well as nobles and Royalty. This covers most of the powers I know of in the medieval world. Which I have never seen all these at once in the same video before. So thanks greatly. 😁👍
An excellent video on the rarely explored topic. It is interesting to learn about how the church functioned at the time in relation to the Emperor and would be interested in seeing more content about this.
It's worth noting that the whole "clergy can't fight" is only sort of true. That was only ever a matter of policy, not doctrine, so battle bishops were a thing at times, usually in a defensive role or a reaction force against repeated invasion (like a response to the pagan prussians raiding for slaves in the north).
Very informative, thank you for this video. A suggestion of mine would be to make the sound of davids voice a bit louder in the future so you can hear german as well as english. I don't know what the best volume is but they do that in other modern documentaries and it gives the interviewee a bit more character
Abbotts and bishops involved in warfare are impressive and amusing proofs of how things were complex, severe and brutal back then, a reality that often escapes the contemporary mentality, so used to constitutions and stablishments. And if you ask me, i prefer such a context than modern massive demagogic nation-states...
Everybody does. Until the local warrior-elite has a few too many and decides you've been talking an awful lot of shit for someone with such a flammable house lol
Okay wait thats creepy I work on the Reichenau. Therefore I love everything about its history. And I love the fact that its SandRhoman History, that uploaded cuz I love your videos, if someone else ever wants to visit this beautiful island aswell, come as soon as possible, cuz this year the Abbey celebrates 1300 years!!! and has a large historical exhibition!
The Russian equivalent to this system would also be an interesting topic in regards to their military organisation from the time of Ivan the Terrible, during the time of troubles and into the early Romanovs.
Lay Abbots,quite common in the Scottish Church,up to the Reformation(1560),ie the origins of the Highland Clans of MacLaren.MacPherson,MacNab and possibly Livingstone,Baron of the Bachuil and COARB of St.Moluag. Seems these 'Panzer-ritter' were the precursor of the eventual crusading knightly orders.
Panzerreiter were knights of different name drawn into service by the same feudal system that knights of secular lords were. They were in the service of clergy not the clergy themselves. Usually. The crusader knights like Templars were actual monks that took similar vows to the clergy and not landowning men of status, in fact if they did have any land, wealth or status they had to renounce it all in their vows as a monk to serve god above all. Crusaders kind of created their own laws through precedent largely ignoring existing ones of the church and crown. Much to the chagrin of many existing powers.
Interesting video. In the perspective of the battle of Ane 1227 where the bisschop utrecht, Otto II, waged wat against the population of the province of Drenthe. The previous bisschops of Utrecht were involved in many battles. As they had both religious power and seculair power over their Regions.
Haven't watched the full video yet. But clergy wielding enormous worldly power itself shouldn't be surprising: The German Emperor was elected by (amongst others) 3 clergymen. The Fürstbischof of Würzburg ruled big chunks of southern Germany in the early middle ages. And if you look into the history of the castles in Palatinate, it will be apparent that many of them have been destroyed by troops under the command of the church.
The military organization of this time is fascinating. But this begs an interesting question: How could a system so adept at marshaling itself to meet outside military threats be so utterly ineffective when it came to simple farmers and fishermen? The people I'm referring to are, of course, the Frisians. Yes, there was a long period when feudal Europe paid little attention to Frisians, especially since they were such an effective buffer against the Vikings, but when it did, the results were unsatisfying if not catastrophic. How can such seemingly disorganized people be so effective against such military organization? Please no comments about the superpowers of black-and-white dairy cows.
Bishoprics were simply states like any other and states wage war .the bishopric of Utrecht was at war with the county of Holland a lot of the time. Hendrik of gelre bishop Liège carried out a complete plundering campaign through the Ardennes. And besieged several cities .
Panzerreiter should be "armored" / "heavily armored cavalry" not tank rider.
i was already wondering this when i heard it. Thanks for the explanation!
the best translation is probably tankmotorist
Panzerreiter, Armoured cavalrymen. Panzerkampfwagen, tank

I had never considered that giving power to clergy would solve any problems related to inheritence, that's actually quite ingenious
Clergy not being able to inherit wasn't so clear cut in the early middle ages though. Even in the times and places where it was official policy it was not always enforced. It's only from the great schism that it really became the law (in the west).
It's similar to Eunuch theory but unfortunately they still have relatives.
@@nath9091 Their relatives could very well be factored in. By choosing a clergyman from a certain family the king could also bind his family closer to himself as loyalty to the king was rewarded with high positions in the kingdom.
However while solving one problem it also created its own issues. But that's leadership for you. Rarely is there a win-win decision.
