Love your content 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
The best narrator in these, always keeps me engaged.
Any documentary that starts with "the man known to history" is well worth watching
Thanks a lot, love listening to your videos during my night shifts. Espacially the ones about English Kings and Roman emperors. Thanks for the free education and keep up the good work.
Glad you like them!
@@PeopleProfiles i certainly do, the narration is superb and the topics (persons) are researched very well, top content 🫶🏼😇
I do, too!
A really colorful commentary of a turbulent period....amazing detailed analysis of complex characters....thanks ...hope to see more
The normans and Plantagenets are fascinating and i’m glad to see them getting more attention- the tudors have a habit of overshadowing their predecessors but i’m knee deep into learning more about this branch of the monarchy
Yes! I descend from the Plantagenets and it veers off when the tudors get involved. I’m excited to learn more
They do not exist Other than video games and Others act as the assets of kids spirituality Lost.
@@user-jt2ft2ii3g What are you talking about? Of course there is one line of Plantangenets that exists through the line of the Dukes of Beaufort. Also a large majority of people descend from them, myself included through Henry II's daughter Eleanor of England, Queen of Castile. Henry's majority descendants are through his daughters though.
The Tudors pale in comparison to the Plantagenets. They are one of the greatest and most interesting dynasties in the history of Europe. I believe they belong in the same class of dynasty as the Habsburgs and the Bourbons.
Always love the thumbnail designs on your videos. Massive kudos too whoever designs them great stuff.
Think of how different the world would be if William Aetheling had survived the white ship disaster
This is the most scholarly presentation that I have seen regarding Henry 1 of England. Well done!
Love your work guys! Please to stephen and matilda. The latter could be: thea matriach of the Plantagenets
Isabella the she-wolf of France would be a good option as well!
Once again I second this on @danielsantiagourtado3420 comment because I really so badly want a People Profiles doing justice to Matilda documentary which only People Profiles is capable of doing ❣️
So once again please please please People Profiles do Empress Matilda justice like only you can 🥰
Not only a stand-alone doc on Matilda but one on Eleanor of Aquitaine would be great as well!
@@VvpandoravV They already made an excellent one for Eleanor of Aquitaine, doing her great justice as only they can! (Thank you People Profiles! 🤗). Just type in your search box People Profiles Eleanor of Aquitaine and you will find it, it is really good 😊.
I love the narrator!!
Another great video from the best history channel. Please could you do a video on Harold Godwinson?
Great suggestion!
No joke, this channel is putting out the best content I know you RUclips...
The Medieval English kings are always my favourites!! Would you consider doing more Anglo-Saxon kings too? Idk if it would get much views though :/
There'd be you and me! I wonder if that would make it worthwhile? 🤔
@@ragwortrattle8798 well I do have a tendency to rewatch videos I like many times, so who knows 👀👀
They were French invaders
@@kayimsan6163 who, the Anglo-Saxons?💀
@@kayimsan6163And the Anglo-Saxons were German invaders so 🤷🏻♂️……
Fascinating! I really enjoyed it. Henry was my 25th great grandfather. And Sybil Corbet(his 5th concubine) was my 25th great grandmother. However I am not descended from a child they had jointly, but from two different children. His daughter, Constance Matilda Fitzroy. And one of hers with her husband, Herbert Fitzherbert.
I'm direct
Thorough explanation of actors and events. Great documentary.
can we get a "normans" playlist
amazing content! so much better than other youtube channels which dangerously stray close to being hagiographies instead of a neutral and factual documentary. hoping to see more and more content on the british monarchy!
Outstanding! Really enjoyed this video and it helped clear up a few questions I had
This is a marvellous series.
Fascinating. I could watch these videos all day - thank you!
Fascinating video! I am reading a book right now about the White Ship disaster and this video is a great complement. I'm going to refer the video to my history teacher friend. Thanks very much!
Thank you for best descriptive presentation
I binged all of your videos while at work as i always love to have either music, documentaries or podcasts to pass the time. Lobed eacha nd every one of these, i am only saddened that i have finally caught up and will have to wait for the next one!
Excellent as usual. Henry I Beauclerc, King of England and grandson of William the Conqueror, was my 26th great grandfather. An Alfred The Great video would be wonderful.
Henry II was the first Plantagenet king of England not Henry Beauclerc. Henry I was certainly descended from Rollo, 1st Duke of Normandy but was not his son. Henry II was the grandson of Henry I
Henry I wasn’t a Plantagenet and certainly wasn’t the son of Rollo
He also wasn't 5he grandson of William the Conqueror - he was the 4th son!
Excellent .. best ever documentary on Henry
The Most Excellent
Order of the British Empire
Another great documentary. Thank you, love your content.
Love this series! ❤
LOVE THIS!
To be honest I don’t know a lot about the Plantagenets but I’ve been studying my family tree and I’m a direct descendant like… 18 generations ago.
Thank you for your videos 🙌
Fascinating history of England's early middle ages norman-plataganet sovereigns
Thank you very much, fantastic history well delivered dialogue and imagery. 😊
Looking forward to this!
Great video keep it up you're doing amazing things 😁👍
Thank you so much 😁
Great video! Definately a great king to do one on!
Thanks for helping me do my conversation homework. Groan.
Thank you fir the in depth documentary here, as ever!
I agree, Matilda and Stephan next!
Well done 👍
I love your channel. A video on Eleanor of Aquitaine would be interesting.
There are a few consorts who would be as interesting as actual monarchs, such as Elizabeth Woodville, Margaret of Anjou, Eleanor of Aquitaine, etc.
Probably the most important woman in English history (even more important than any Queen or Queen Consort), Margaret Beaufort, has already been done though.
Enjoyed it immensely, thank you. Wouldn’t it be interesting to know what would have happened if they had accepted Matilda as queen. How would history have turned out or, by some twist of fate, would it work it way to how it was anyway. Good to think on 👍👍👍👍👍👍🙏🙏👵🇦🇺
The Great and Just Henry I Beauclerc! My 6th favourite King!
Well presented
Oddly enough I was wondering the other day about who would have been Henry I. We hear much about Henry II so this is a good explanation.
You had me at Count Fook
amazing they have color video of Henry as a child.. fascinating
It’s insane how much we know about a king from a thousand years ago. It’s just wild to think about. So much history has been lost to time but we have this
It’s also ridiculous that the discussed history of England up to the civil war period of the 17th c. is almost totally dominated by two monarchs, Henry viii and his daughter Elizabeth 1st Although both are obviously extremely important there are many other rulers and people of great influence that are barely ever mentioned. This excellent series puts history into a more accurate perspective.
@@TheVaughan5as a tudor aficionado i have to agree with you
Will you guys do Napoleon anytime soon?
Or perhaps you could do a video about Marcus Agrippa?
Epic History TV basically makes all other Napoleon content obsolete.
Personally, if I was another channel, I wouldn't even bother. I guess they could do it for completeness, though.
I'd like to see a People Profiles for Napoleon's military inspiration, Eugene of Savoy. That would be an interesting episode.
Fascinating that the English Monarchy is based on the French nobility, and that the lands in England were just an add on to their main possession in France.
Not many people know that
Sibling rivalry led to many internal wars.
The falling out seems a common feature in the Monarchy to this day.
Welearna lotfrom History but not enough to really learn from History.
The French plantagenants ran England quite well for decades.
At 15:15, William Rufus died on the "2nd of August", NOT "2nd of April". Just for the record.
Finally!
As a ruler, Henry established internal peace and a lot of judicial and monetary institutions necessary to successful government. What's "cruel" about imprisoning his brother--most rulers have swiftly executed any claimants as aggressive as Robert. And Henry can hardly be blamed for the accident of a sinking ship. He pretty much did all he could in a very, very brutal and unstable situation.
After listening the whole documentary, I find Henry I responses to plotters and challengers quite modest. He could have killed Robert but he refrained frpm killing his own vrother. Even after a revolt, he MOVED hia brother on another castle, when others could have easily poisoned him.
Whenever I hear hunting accident, I'm immediately suspicious
Surprisingly they never suspected foul play in the death of William Rufus which was amazing.
I wonder what happened to his remains when Reading Abbey was destroyed.
❤
Video Robert ”the fox” D’Hauteville?
Thx
New subscriber and so loving this, do you think you could speak a tiny bit slower? not much but just enough for my American ears to interpret it. Thanks
I wish Matilda had been given a chance, I believe she would have been a force!
Long Live The Empress
Fun fact: at the time of the accident, Richard was on a hunting trip with Dick Cheney.
What is the castle name at 9:00
Just fully finished my genealogy and found out I'm related to this blood line through my family and now I wanna learn about them thank you for the documentary!
I’m descended from Wm the Conqueror’s sister.
I am a descendent of Henry also, from my maternal side.
Just stephen left and thats william to chalres 2 (baring ed 5) and thats going to hella long video
It wasn't Richard who died in the hunting "accident" in t
he New Forest, it was William "Rufus.
Both died in separate accidents in the New Forest.
Rufus died on 2nd August, not 2nd April.
Atropos
Interesting king often sidelined
Jeffrey and Godfrey = Joffrey of GoT
makes me not want to eat lampreys anytime soon
Hi
Maratha empire Shivaji Maharaj biography please make video
One year ???
Especially in light of Brexit, it will never not be funny that England has had foreign kings for almost its entire history, including the current German royal family known as the Windsors.
Most kings are foreign in origin - by choice, to minimise fights between noble families. In fact native-origin monarchs are very rare in Europe.
This is inaccurate statement, that is repeated often. How George l succeeded after the death of Queen Anne to the throne of the UK was through his mother, Sophia, Electress of Hanover, who was the grand-daughter of James l (James Vl of Scotland). So, it was the matrilineal line that he succeeded to the throne. So, he had as much English blood in him as he had Germanic blood. The Windsor line is connected to the Stuarts and the Tudors. With the present Prince William, he has Stuart lineage through his mother as well as his father.
@@mtngrl5859 "Connected to" is doing a lot of work here.
Literally all of us can trace our ancestry back to another country in the past. I’m related to the Stewart’s and their progenitor was a Steward from Brittany that came over with Henry I, and given lots of lands and titles. James VI & I is related to Alan FitzFlaald (11 century). But I mean how far back do you want to go.
Great video. ❤
How do you think 5’9 to 6’1 would go with a 5’9.5 / 5’10wingspan realistically?
Why does Henry in your image most strikingly resemble Dr. House?
😂👍
Mathilda took over and carried the torch.
I see analogies of the Pope and his RC Church and it's beureaoracy with the EU and it's beauriocracy.
But there was no Brexit but a.compromise thepope could appoint bishops but they paid homage to the king.
The White Ship incident scupperedhis plans.
Arranged marriages didn't quite work out as we see even today with Charles aand Diana.
The greatest Norman king, well there is not a lot of competition as there were only four of them. He may have had a hand in his brothers death and could have fathered nearly 30 children, only three with his wife.
My uncle remained single…he certainly was not gay. I am not married and I know I’m not gay. Because a person is not married does mean they can be labelled gay.
Don’t freak out! This is suggestive of the way things were historically!!
it’s not only the fact he remained unmarried, it’s reports from his lifetime that suggest it
@@jimtryon9721yup. This is a historical piece. It has nothing to do with you, GMN.
Thank you @GMN360 I so agree with you!
@@TheCandiceWang I used my uncle and me as an example.
Ryan Blaney?
Another of my ancestors on my mother’s side of the family
Henry 1st took my ancestor lands from him.
The voice the Americans think we all have...
You send enough second rate comics that we know the difference.
No kiss
I disagree. William was the greatest. Without William there would be no England. William unified a people that were little more than a bunch of tribes. Granted, he did it through conquest and force, but William was responsible for bringing the government, language and culture that makes the British people British. Everything else is just details.
That’s a YIKES take right there
Mid roll ad spam filled
Henry I was f99king French and viewed the English as a conquered nation!
He was Norman.
Usurper
Great Topic
boring narration!
What a shame
