- Documentary on the Hauteville brothers and the beginning of the Norman conquest of Sicily. Roger of Hauteville was a young, ambitious knight with nothing but his spirit and his sword to his name when he arrived in southern Italy. Judith d'Evroux was a beautiful young Norman noblewoman who swore to be Roger's bride. My book about the Crusades:

In this documentary video, we travel to Norman Sicily, to investigate the romance between Judith d'Évreux and Roger I of Sicily. This is a fascinating chapter from the Norman conquest of Sicily.

History is so full of valient men and women who embodied love, loyalty, and valour. But all we get is yet another movie about Henry VIII...
Thanks for telling this story.
I will make a movie series about these brothers one day
Already started writing the scripts.
@@DedicatedSpartan I'm seriously looking forward.
You don't even need a huge budget. The Spanish made a series about Isabel and Ferdinand with fairly low budget. Yet, the series is incredibly interesting. At least the first season, that's the only one I could find with subtitles.
@@floodgates182 where'd you find it?
@@RambleOn07 The first season is on Netflix, with subtitles. But they didn't put in the subsequent ones, so I haven't seen them, either.
A much better love story than Twlight.
Under-statement
Don't set the bar so low.
Love being a (Normand) Sicilian. My family and I were born outside of Palermo. I have a deep, great love for Sicily and all the people and our true history and culture. Make no mistake, we are NOT Italians.
Haha you're so hilarious, very funny. Now go to do dishes woman
???
That's so sad that the Greek Christians attempted to overthrow them.
It was a Roman province before the Muslims.
I'd love to see you and Ryan Reeves team up for a feature.
Seconded.
William the Conqueror [29th gg] and his son Henry l Beauclerc [ 28th gg] are my direct ancestors, so Judith would be my cousin also.
Please consider making a series about the truth on the medici and the renaissance please ❤️❤️
Robert Guiscard is the best wingman ever
1:56 Judith was a hottie :-) ready for Friday J?
To be fair, I had to use mostly stock images. A lot of the images I used depicted Tristan and Isolde, since that's one source of images of medieval "lovers". And yes, I'm ready for Friday!
Robert Guiscard my ancestor.
My direct Ancestors on my Father's side thank you for putting together an excellent video on them I didn't know this story well done.
i live in Calabria but 1000 years later
a neighborhood of my city is called Ruggero ( Roger )
Where do you live in Calabria? Many historical bits about these two exist in many places there.
Glad to see u back!
So Robert and Judith didn't have children 🙁
I think they had 4 daughters
At last it is here
Excellent video! Thanks! ⚘⚘⚘
Thanks for watching!
Awesome video
Nice video
Great
Roger I, was an amazing man.
Really enjoyed this video, nice artworks as always 👍
Hello,i'd like to give a suggestion for a video here,about the Witch Trials in Europe,i find very interesting especially the point of religious fanatism is bad on either side,i hate how most viewers of this channel see Christianity as good and Islamism as bad,dont forget individuals have different mindsets and different morals,either one can be bad or good depending on the situation
The way i see it,religious fanatism is bad independent of what religious belief you have.
Nicely done, mate. Excellent as always.
Roger inst a medieval name
It was a common name among medieval Normans.
where do you think the Jolly Roger myth comes from? ;)
