Great presentation on the almost forgotten battles in Spain.
Interesting that the French co ordination with Spanish guerillas as opposed to the Napoleonic campaign in Spain.
Fact: the Duke of Vendome's name is Louis Joseph de Bourbon, a great grandson of King Henry IV of France.
Also unlike his elder brother in Oudenarde, Philip V was able to cooperate with Vendome which gave him victories.
Philip V did work very well with Vendome. They were even said to talk to each other rather casually even on the battlefield.
Cooperation is always good for victory.

@@authorrichards7633 well played.
Impecabol movement I must say
Hooray, Vendôme has returned to kick the British into the dirt. Quality is as nice as it has ever been; maps, script and animation looks fantastic!
Great work!
didn't he have an army 5 times their size?
I just finished painting up all regiments for the Allies army for this battle, this was more info for the battle then anywhere else that I could find. Thank you
Awesome! I love minis too
Love this in depth wss coverage!
Encore une fois une excellente narration accompagnée d'animations très utiles. Remarquable
Concerning the French troops participation in the battle under Vendome...below is an extract from Wikipedia :
The Bourbon army was rapidly refitted and reorganized by French general the duc de Vendôme, who was lent to Philip V's service by the latter's grandfather, the Sun King. Spanish volunteers and regular units were joined by the Irish brigade and by French troops secretly directed to enter Spanish service.
This is how the Bourbons truly claimed Spain and kept it till now!
Ironically the Spanish guerrillas pursued the British during these battles but were allied with them 100 years later.
Nice work ! Just a few words, according to Fadi El Hage, Vendôme was the only frenchman fighting in theses battles. There were no French regiment sended in Spain at this time.
Almansa, half of the forces were French for the Bourbon alliance...
@@skiteufr Yes indeed, my concern was the Vendôme military's campaign in 1710, not the Berwick's one three years earlier. By the way, I'm seeking some informations about the battle of Fleurus in 1690. In his book "The nine year's war and the British army" John Childs assure that some british units were present but I don't find anything in the Waldeck's allied OB.
Correct. No french regiments.
@@skiteufr see olivier vece response , i give the spaniard battle order with all the regiments involved
every time i think I've found all the channels like this I find another one
Great video, keep it up!
Wow, truely Epic! Mostly because it is so underrated. We all heard about the Spanish war of Succession but not much is said about it. This is the first video (That i started watching) which covers it in depth. Muchas Gracias Señor 🙏🏻
1st rate on this great project and so enlightening! Well done sir and thank you so much. … and the Bourbons are still the monarchs of Spain today.
My pleasure!
Looks really good! Wish more would see
You and me both!
just found your channel, hyped for denain
Your videos are much appreciated, it covers events that aren't covered in much depth online, Thank you.
Congrats for the work you put in these documentaries 🙏
Great video, hard to believe you don't have more subscribers.
Good and interesting Video as Always.
Amazing video, mate.
Thanks!
Cant wait for the next video!
Another obligatory comment to help the channel
Great content! Thanks
Excellent work here Sir
Queen Anne despised what was happening in Spain. Like her people, she was tired of the British loss of men.
lol british casualties are as tiny as their army pussy country
What a battle ! It shows that it is in battle that glory is won , there is no other source of it , in this world .
I thought the battle was very well explained. Adding computerized animated figures makes it cutter , but it does not add to the clarity of the explanation, which was crystal clear .
Excellent content 👍
Bravo!
Sacrifice to the algorithme, great vid
man, a lot of people died in that stupid war of succession
Hello Field Marshal, thanks for liking my comment. I just have a question; what about the nine years war? do you plane to do something ? Fleurus, La Boyne, Landen..etc It will be great !
Eventually yes
@@FieldMarshalYT :D
Sounds like the"allies" , have been busy for a long long time.
Yep 👍
its crazy you crank out so much high quality content and only have 4k subscribers. need to figure out what the youtube algorithm trick is. Maybe putting DOCUMENTARY in the titles, one history channel i watch does that.
Stds turn out to be more dangerous for Vendôme than the allies
War of Spanish SUCC
1711 was when the Hungarians in the forgotten eastern theater lost their war against the Austrians :( most of our small castles are in ruins in Transylvania since 1711 ...
Cool
The spanish artilleryman Rafael de Silby? De Silby is NOT an spanish name. De Silva seems more credible.
That's his name, perhaps he has other origins but was born in Spain.
sounds french
@@anapoda3081 It could be Catalonian
Or Walloon. Spain and Belgium go way back.
yes it sounds french
No one puts a king in spain without its consent hehe
except they did and so did Napoleon.
@@mrfreeman2911 napoleon's brother didn't even control the peninsula, there were many cities in spain and areas that he had to conquer before ruling effectively the country, not in vain he was known as an incompetent man for his brother and people in france for his failures
British lost? Day good
For the algorithm 😁
The upshot: the British have lost more battles and wars with Spain than with any European power. Only in the Seven Years’ war was there a decided advantage.
I think the french defeated the british more
@@smal750 I think you are both wrong.
Britain owned and still owns spanish and french land.
@@mrfreeman2911
you have to understand that this kind of lies wont affect me because its english that is 44% french and not the other way around
@@smal750 I think you might be a bit confused.
When was the last time London was invaded? 1000 years ago.
In that time Paris was invaded multiple times. So many times, I lost count ;)
Even Germans call the white flag the french flag.
@@mrfreeman2911
not by brits
tho
you need to get the germans to have something to say
truth is those surrenderers conquered and colonized england
