Hey man, another great video.
One question though, do you plan to make videos on Nadir Shah's campaigns?
@@sakshampandey7342 Interesting question bro
@@sakshampandey7342 The most interesting will be the battle of Karnal
Well, they say chess was invented in India. Not hard to believe that.
Chaturanga ( Gupta Empire ) -> spread to the Sassanians ( Persian ) and then eventually to Arabs -> Europeans. We say the world wasn’t connected but trade, culture and history can teach us a unique lesson about that.
Bajirao: *I am speed.*
Napolion you also watch kings and generals. Am I right
THE Emperor

@Maharaja Gulab Singh fuck
@Maharaja Gulab Singh what is meant by chad??
Great Video although some minor factual errors. Bajirao was not the son of Shahu. He was the son of the earlier Peshwa Balaji Vishwanath - (Prime minister). Bajirao was busy with southern expedition when Nizam encroached Maratha territories near Pune. Great Presentation skills though.

why did baji rao did not kill nizam
@@hannanhub1717 because he needed a treaty with someone who would see the terms of the Treaty through.
He did not want to create a power vacuum in the Deccan which the Mughals would eventually fill with a new governor.
Plus, a regional state next to you, against a larger empire which wants to destroy you is incredibly desirable.
Also, because the Nizam sued for peace terms, and killing him then would accrue a bleak fate for Maratha Generals who would be captured in the future wars to come.
I had commented on your video on battle of kharada 1795 to check out kings and generals and history marche channels 😅😅😅
Who discovered the blitzkrieg ?
Germans : We
Bajirao : Hold my Beer
actually blitzkrieg is invented by mongols 500 year ego
Bajirao was indeed one of the finest generals from India

@Kirti Kishore why can't we? He was indeed an excellent commander. If I can, I would like to change the name of some Indian army regiments with that of Indian ones. 1st Skinner Horse can be called as Peshwa Baji Rao Cavalry (PBRC). Similarly, 4th Hodson's horse can be renamed as Rani Jhansi Cavalry. Why we need British names when we can have our own 😎
@Kirti Kishore You are sounding too racist. I am a Bengali myself but i don't think it doesn't really matter if it's Rani Laxmi Bai, Maharana Pratap, Peshwa Baji Rao, Rani Chennamma or Prithviraj Chauhan. They all are "our" own
@Kirti Kishore You are not aware of the things it seems. What do you think? Maratha Light infantry has all marathis? Or Jat regiments has got Jats from Haryana and UP? My dear friend, you will always find mixed people in these regiments. South Indian officers will be leading Punjab regiment, Punjabi officers will be leading Gurkhas and so on. Those days are gone when the regiments will have soldiers and officers from the same race. Get your facts clear my civilian friend. You are surely not from Fauji background
Maneuver warfare combined with scorched earth. The Maratha had pretty good military leadership.
Yes, this military leader Bajirao fought 41 battles and didnt lose any.
@NMA 55 NIDHIN JOBI to get a short gist you can read the Wikipedia article on maratha empire but if you want to read in detail then I would recommend you to read some good books of which i can recommend some names. Do you stay in India? Are you am avid reader or reader of history?

Bajirao : "All this while, I had been waiting for you here in Palkhed"
Nizam: * Suprised Pikachu face *
Bajirao's entire battle plan boiled down to " Can't touch this ! "
Nizam: You dare to use my own spells against me Bajirao?
Bajirao fought over 41 battles and is reputed to have never lost one. His speed used to catch his adversaries offguard. E.g. later in 1737 when he sacked Delhi, his army reached the Delhi in 48 hours, when it usually took 10 days to cover the same distance in those times.
Marathas even had formidable navy. Their admiral Kanhiji Angre defeated British, Portuguese and Dutch navies on a number of occasions. These were small battles, not big wars with two navies going head-to-head against one another. Marathas used hit and run tactics not only on the land, but also on the waters. British had technologically advance battleships, whereas Marathas had small, lightweight and faster vessels. Maratha-British naval battles would be an interesting topic to cover.
@ITS FACTZ Most of them weren't major battles.
Maratha are clearly a inspiration that never give up from rags to riches from one fort to whole india isn't that enough source for yu
It's facts
@ITS FACTZ Those other Regions Revolted only after depletion of Mughal Army's and Treasury for Fighting against Marathas more than 50 years.. U need to give credit for Guerilla Warfare and few Head to Head Battles by Marathas whom gave kick start to other Regions.
@ITS FACTZ Marathas under Bajirao were in a constant state of war with Mughals, Nizam, Portuguese, Siddis, etc expanding Maratha kingdom. His major battles include Maalwa, Dhaar, Aurangabad, Gujarat, Paalkhed, Ahmedabad, Udaypur, Firojabad, Delhi, Bhopal, Vasai, Bundelkhand, Janjira. Many sources I read claim under his rule, Marathas had fought 41 battles. As someone has pointed out rightly here, he did not participate in some of them, like for example battle of Vasai, which was led by his brother Chimajiappa. I don't see why that could be a problem. They may not be as grand as the ones fought by Alexander. I don't see the point in comparison the two. Anyway the main focus of my comment was about his superior battle tactics based on his fast cavalry.
@@cooldude-co9kg It was Shambhuraje who was captured
Bajirao kept playing catch me if u can😉. What a master tactician, he forced the enemy to face the site chosen by him for battle.
Yes indeed
Seems like the war was won before it started in the building of the respective war machines. The mounted Mahrattas (sp?) were just way more mobile than the pursuing Muslim army. They could pillage and burn, unopposed, and avoid any pitched battles until they caught Nizam Ul-Mulk away from his big guns. I don't think it took any great planning. The strategy played itself. All he had to do was be opportunistic, and eventually he was going to wrong-foot Ul-Mulk.
A master tactician who pillaged and burnt cities of innocent people who had nothing to do with the conflict.
@@noName-hr2uf Mughals weren't any good either
@@harrymills2770 That was the strength of the Maratha cavalry under Bajirao. He managed to move armies of upto 100000 soldiers at speeds very high for that time, covering almost 50 kms a day. Managing the logistics of such a huge army and at this speed is a great achievement. Under Bajirao, the Maratha empire expanded almost tenfold. BTW He fought around 40 battles in his lifetime and won all of them.
Good video, but there are 3 inaccuracies.
1. That is not the Maratha flag. It should be just a plain saffron swallowtail, called Bhagawā Jhendā. The Maratha emperor's (Shahu's) personal flag had a golden border, and was called Zarī Patakā.
2. Shahu was released by the Mughal court AFTER the death of Aurangzeb, not before.
3. Peshwa Bajirao was not the son of king Shahu. He was the son of Balaji Vishwanath, the first Peshwa (Prime Minister) of king Shahu.

The Mughals fell for the same trap which their ancestors used against native Indian armies. Compromising mobility and tactics. Babur had a smaller army but he used tactical prowess and gunpowder weapons to defeat local Indian and afghan armies. The same thing happened in reverse with the Mughals and Marathas.

@@manisherande4568 Maratha doesn't mean being only Maratha but Maratha included all castes. For ex- Bajirao was Brahmin, Shivaji was Maratha, Tanhaji was Koli, there were people from other castes who fought under Maratha flag. Today's dispensation is more divisive than it was during that time.
The detail you put into the world maps and battle view are outstanding. Thank you so much for all the hard work that goes into these. Most video games wouldn’t make the effort to overlap shadows properly, nor sync the waving of the flags in a more organic matter.

@D16 Borze and then abdali and friends were defeated by marathas and punjabis lol
@@mohammedsajjadhossain8116 Bajirao wasn't alive when Panipat happened, Bajirao died in 1740, 21 years before the 3rd battle of Panipat, which happened during the reign of the 8th Peshwa and Bajirao's son Balaji Rao (In office
from 1740-1761 as Peshwa), Bajirao's son Balaji also expanded the Maratha state and took it further, but he underestimated Abdali and Panipat happened, so don't blame Bajirao, he wasn't even alive around Panipat.
@@mohammedsajjadhossain8116 The effect of Panipat must not be understated, the horrifying defeat inflicted huge military and economic loss, and several capable and amazing generals of the Marathas were killed like Sadashiv Rao Bhau, Vishwas Rao Bhat (the eldest son and heir of Balaji Rao and grandson of Bajirao), Ibrahim Khan Gardi, Tukoji Rao Shinde and Shamsher Bahadur (The son of Bajirao and his muslim wife Mastani).
Sadashiv Rao Bhau was a capable general and commander and had won several battles and campaigns in the Deccan and the South, but he was not used to the North and Unlike Malharrao Holkar and Raghunathrao, both of whom had deep knowledge of northern India, Sadashivrao was unfamiliar with the personages and politics of the region. This was the main reason for the loss.
Panipat also caused many vassals and subordinates of the Marathas to gain confidence and they started revolting and seceding, it also caused political turmoil in the Maratha court.
Though Abdali won the battle, he also had heavy casualties on his side and sought peace with the Marathas. Abdali sent a letter to Nanasaheb Peshwa (who was moving towards Delhi, albeit at a very slow pace to join Bhau against Abdali) appealing to the Peshwa . In the end both the Afghans and Marathas had to leave as both had huge casualties and losses after the battle, and it weakened both the Marathas and the Afghans.
@@mohammedsajjadhossain8116 The valour displayed by the Marathas was extolled by Ahmad Shah Abdali in his letter to his ally, Madho Singh, the king of Jaipur.
_The Marathas fought with the greatest valour which was beyond the capacity of other races... These dauntless blood-shedders did not fall short in fighting and doing glorious deeds.... Suddenly the breeze of victory began to blow... and the wretched Deccanis suffered defeat._
What an amazing work! Bajirao was indeed greatest Indian cavalry general. Awaiting for more Maratha history videos. Keep up the good work!!
I've never seen so many Indian people happy in the comments. Congrats, with how things were progressing, it was obvious Bajirao would win.
Yes also because Westerners only keep talking about the foreign mughal empire when it comes to India. They forget that Hindu peshwas/marathas were undertaking the Hindu reconquista that was rudely interrupted by the British. Somehow the Westerners don't know enough about Hindu culture and its history as much as they know about mughals or the buddist history of India. It's good to see the west acknowledge Indias rich Hindu past
@@vineetv LOL! Panipat 3 was a good Example bruh
@@intelligencequipo5095 it's amazing to me how people get so salty watching history. Both sides.
@@thatindiandude4602 history is root of all evils
@@intelligencequipo5095 eh.... No. History is what history is. What amazes me is that Both Indians and Pakistanis go to these historical videos and have comment threads after threads insulting each other. When at the end of the day it means nothing really. It's like O.K. the Mughals ruled India for 400 odd years. Then you have Hindu Muslim arguments in the comments when both India and Pakistan are undeveloped third world countries. You have Muslims and Hindus constantly boasting, where as The Europeans came in and conquered the whole region. It's quite pathetic to be honest. All this boasting from both sides reeks of insecurity

I disagree it's Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj
@@JSR108 Under Chattrapati Shivaji, the Maratha army was mostly infantry, for waging guerrila warfare in the dense jungles and storng forts of Maharashtra. Bajirao had to battle on plain and ravaged lands. That is why he focused on his cavalry units.

@@JSR108 Both are equally great. 🚩🚩
@@allahlesboslu2_9 approach of both was same- both were scared of fighting a pitched battle with Great Mughals😂
Mughal Artillery was a nightmare for both.
So , one was a pahadi chuha who always ran from one Mountain to another while another one knew he can't defeat his enemies in a full-on engagement so he seperated his rivals from main portions of their armies like Palkhed where Nizam-ul-mulk was left with only his van guard.
well, that was a fast release. After the adventure of Hannibal, the adventure of the Marathi. Do you plan to do something about Shivaji, if I recall correctly, his rise to power was spectacular !

Yes I curse them with my breath but I have to admire them. Also the Marathas taught the traitorous Nizam-ul Mulk a lesson.
The Nizam-ul Mulk is one of most shamless figures in our history, he ripped apart the Mughal nobility so he could get the Deccan to himself, only to lose to the marathas. In the battle of Karnal during the Iranian invasion he was the only one out of 3 generals, who did not participate in the fighting and merely observed the battle, and then left to Hyderabad

@@abubakrmuhammad4164 you certainly might be right these what ifs of history are hard to quantify usually.

A key mistake which all Hindu kings made was to not drive home their advantage and execute the leader of the opposition ... Its like keeping a time bomb under your pillow
What do you mean? Could you please elaborate?

Nicely informative video. I like hearing about little known periods in history. Great job.
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@HistoryMarche---Your welcome. 😊👍
Such an amazing channel. Such an amazing video on Battle of Palkhed.
You have mentioned in this video at 18:49 of the battle of Bhopal where Nizam again tried to subdue Maratha supremacy but failed miserably against Bajirao in the battle of Bhopal.
It won't do justice with this superb video you made if you don't make another masterpiece for the Bajirao battle of Bhopal with Nizam.
Thank you for your efforts!
It helped me understand so much about the famous warrior Bajirao Ballal Bhat.
My name is Talha Bhat and I'm from present day Pakistan Gujranwala.
After saw battle of hatten in this channel, i interested in history.Thnak you HistoryMarche !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Peshwa Baji Rao would have achieved fame that rivals Caesar had he been alive for a few more years. He died of a heat stroke at an early age of 40. Also Peshwas are Brahmins(priest origin) (different caste than Marathas, the actual kings). His father was Balaji Vishwanath the previous Peshwa and not Shahu the actual king.
Great Video on Maratha empire, Peshwa Bajirao was a Great military commander and Strategist

Thank you so much 😀
Magnificent video, as always. Thank you.
Operational and strategic superiority is almost guaranteed to defeat tactical superiority in warfare.
Throughout his career Bajirao avoided pitched battles, a lesson other generals and commanders of the Maratha Empire followed in earnest, and this allowed them to defeat slower Mughal Armies that were far too conservative to easily adapt to changing nature of warfare.
Although it must be said that had any Maratha army faced a Mughal Army in open battle up until 1710, it would have been shattered before the disciplined firepower of North Indian matchlockmen and superior Mughal artillery which was unrivalled in India until the rise of regional powers.
The Mughals as well as the Marathas suffered the lack of infrastructure which was necessary to train proper officers and this elmeant that both Empires ( the Marathas became a Confederacy later on) relied on individual talents of nobles.
They did employ mercenaries and tried to create a hodge podge system of native recruits commanded by foreign mercenaries, but this only increased expenses and since both these powers spent the majority of their surplus on their military and personal luxury of the nobles, their economies did not yield enough revenue to support modern armies.
Once again, a brilliant video, and all Hail Pratapsurya Peshwa Bajirao Ballal!
Agree, Military, Marathas had no problem. It was their politics and government hold as both Peshwa and Chattrapathi wanted power
@@syedazam2568 actually, Marathas only changed the nature of Warfare.
In terms of technology, they were severely outdated. Until 1770's most Maratha armies seemed like relics of the past.
@@sakshampandey7342 in comparison to whom Europeans ?
@@leaveme3559 the Europeans, the Mughals, the Nawabs of the North and Nizam-ul-Mulk, all commanded superior artillery and musketeer formations in comparison to the Marathas, until a few Maratha states such as the Holkars and the Scindias established professional infantry formations under European mercenaries such as Benoit de Boigne and his Campoo Batallions.
It was only the Gardi infantry which could hold its own against a Mughal Army in a pitched battle, but they were far too few to change the fate of a pitched battle.
Even at the Third Battle of Panipat, most of the Maratha infantry had brought spears and shields, with only the Gardi infantry using Muskets.
Maratha artillery was far too cumbersome and their lighter guns were no match for Mughal horse artillery. They also lacked zamburaks or shaturnals, a common feature among North Indian armies such as those of the Nawab of Awadh. Their artillery was also disorganised, with no standard calibre, no standard draw carriage to transport the guns themselves and an overall hodge podge of a manufacturing infrastructure.
Not to mention the fact that the Mughals and North Indians had by the 1650's refined the art of gun making so that their Matchlocks were more accurate and lethal than a musket at a longer range albeit at the cost of firepower.
They used both bronze and iron to forge their cannons giving them a lighter weight and more accuracy.
North Indian light guns, specifically their horse drawn artillery, were on par with Europe until the 1730's.
@@sakshampandey7342 what could be the reason for this?....
Brilliant. I love the battles in India you do. More please!
Wow this is amazing, leep up the great work!
