    🚩 Sources for this one are quite scarce, so it was a bit tricky piecing it together. I hope you'll enjoy the show! Today we have the Battle of Tolbiac, which took place in Gaul during/after the collapse of the last fragments of the Western Roman Empire. Despite being fought in AD 496 (or 506, depending on who you ask) it marked the beginning of what would one day become modern France.

    In classical Latin, Clovis would have been pronounced "Clo-wees (like modern Cloe)". Drop the hard C and you get Louis (Lo-wees). (In later French the S becomes silent.) It even matches the spelling with the Romans using V for U.

    • @jaber70599
      @jaber70599 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +21

      Clovis is only the latin spelling. - At that time the Franks language was Frankish. Frankish has nothing in common with latin. So the right pronounciation of the kings name in his own language is Chlodwig. - It is still hundreds of years to come until the (West) Frankish language evolves into French.

      @@stevo271 Yes. the Franks did the same as the Visigoths did. On the other hand are the saxons in England. They did not adopt the Latin language. - First: Franks served as soldiers and even generals in the Roman empire army for a long time. We must assume that at least higher ranks Franks have a good command of the latin language. - Second: After defeating roman power and establishing Frankish rule the Franks did not destroy the local roman administration and clerical organisation. Frankish rule was just a military coup. Not an invasion. Then in the western part of the Frankish territory the Franks slowly merged with the Romans.Their languages merged into the now French - We know for sure that shortly after Charlemagne the Franks in the western part of the country did not speak the same language any more as the Franks in the eastern part. They speak Old French and Old German and a they needed a translation.

      As a french lad i support this suggestion. Saint Quentin is indeed a good topic although i think the subject of french/italian relationship, wich has been very interesting over centuries, would maybe need a few videos before getting to the battle of St Quentin itself, at least some broad recap of how relations evolved and culminated to this important battle as people not informed on this specific subject may find themselves a bit lost without proper explanation :-) Great idea though, a series between 1450 to 1700+ or so about french and italian history could be a link to the later napoleonis wars, wich has already been developped in detail on the channel !

    In France we were told of the miracle of Tolbiac, it seems a desperate Clovis calls for the christian god's help and a few minutes later the king of the Alemani dies and the battle turns side. Of course this was probably spread by Clovis after the battle, Clovis needed his christian subjects (the majority in his new empire) but could not be baptized without fearing that his frankish realm would rebel, so he needed a "miracle" to convince them. Sneaky politician! Great video once again!

Again, this is very indicative of who Clovis was...As recounted by Gregory of Tours, who wasn't there, but the memory was still very vivid at the time: After the siege of Soissons and the pilfering of the Cathedral (remember that Clovis was still a pagan at the time), the booty was to be distributed to all the warriors, and, as the Franks were all equal in this matter, it had to be done by the odds. But Bishop Rémi, the Bishop of Reims, who was trying to woo Clovis and make him a Catholic, asked him to return a magnificent "vase" to the church, probably an ornated calyx. Clovis wisely and diplomatically wanted to oblige, but when he told his warriors, one of them broke ranks, shouting "King! You'll only have what will be given to you by the odds!" and broke the "vase" of Soissons with his battleaxe in front of the whole army. Clovis didn't move and stood silent. One year passes, and the first troop review for the new campaign comes...All warriors are inspected by the King, who, when identifying the warrior who humbled him, tells him that neither his clothes nor his arms are well-kept, takes said arms from him, throws them down, asks him to pick them up, and, as said warrior is bending towards the ground, cracks his skull open with his own battleaxe, shouting in a rage "THIS IS WHAT YOU DID TO THE SOISSONS VASE!"...Typical Clovis! Savage and wise at the same time, and especially resentful!

    Clovis should be called Clovis the Great because his legacy is still alive.

    Historymarche is real history but the way they present it feels more like Game of throne or fantasy. Really entertaining.

    I love the videos about the Roman Empire during its peak and especially about the Roman Republic or Julius Caesar. Although I would also like to see some videos on the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, seeing as how during the 15th Century Lithuania was the biggest state in Europe

    There's a somewhat recent Italian song about Clovis. It's hilarious in how it praises him as generous and nice while also listing his massacres (and yes, the band did it on purpose).

    I wonder when the last time the Roman Senate had an official meeting and what they discussed.
    There had to be a last one whether they new it or not.

      We know they were still meeting in the 590s. Probably they were discussing how to handle the Lombards invading Italy.

      The last decree of the Roman Senate in the West that we know of was in 603. It probably vanished completely in the decades after that. At this point Constantinople had its own Roman Senate which had taken over the role and many of the actual senators.

    One could argue that the Frankish Kingdom was the true successor of the Roman Empire.
    The kingdom spoke and preserved Latin.
    Continued many Roman cultural and legal customs.
    And acknowledged the authority of the pope.
