Hey, you're doing some incredible work here. Really impressed with the quality of the content, both visually and in terms of narrative. Covering these periods/places of history from an academic, unbiased perspective is something the world is in need of. Keep it up!
The Iberian Sengoku Jidai begins... I love your flags! The absense of the Andalusi flags in the historical records was always something that made me sad.
@@AlMuqaddimahYT This has nothing to do with the first comment, but I thought about it while I was re-watching your video. There is a parallel (or rhyme) today with these Musim Taifas making aliances with the Christians Kingdom against each other! The Musilm states of gulf tend see each other as the bigger treat and prefer aliances with foregn powers against each other!.
Despite the inherent demographic weakness of the Saqaliba Taifas that the video mentioned, they wielded a greatly outsized military power thanks to their origins as members of the Caliph's elite Sclavonian Guard. The Taifa of Denia alone conquered the Balearic Islands and partially conquered Sardinia, while also raiding Italy. One wonders what they might have done if the stable flow of slaves from the Rus hadn't collapsed along with the Caliphate. As always, amazing video.
True but I don't think Denia had any chance at further expansion because their initial martial edge wore off quite early, all historical accounts agree that Seville was the strongest taifa, followed by Granada then Zaragoza (which conquered Denia) and Badajoz, but none had any chance at reaching the power of the fallen caliphate.
Thank you Thank you Thank you!!! I was offline for days and then got in and saw this, so happy!!! Great video! As for the military weakness of the taifas, it's neither shocking nor confusing, their annual budget was forked over heavy tributes (pariah) paid to the northern kingdoms and bribes paid to double cross each other, Alfonso was a genious at playing them against each other. Treachery was very common, Ibn Amar was notoriously treacherous, he even turned against his king Al mu'tamid, but they all did it. And in this climate no taifa could commit all its forces to one front because they could almost always count on a neighbour to stab them in the back (which was true) Also Thanks for presenting it from a political view and avoiding the "they fell because of wine and music" cliché. PS: Alfonso never actually conquered zaragoza
Alfonso didn't conquer Zaragoza. I misspoke there. He did lay siege to it but it was interrupted by the Almoravids landing on Iberia. I have mentioned that in the next video which will be up soon, hopefully. I get your point about the Pariahs but money isn't the only way to raise an army, especially in light of a Christian threat, faith could've been used but to me, it feels like there was just a lack of capable soldiers and generals, somehow. Maybe I'm wrong.
@@AlMuqaddimahYT They say faith moves mountains but I guess I'm one of the skeptics lol, without immediate self interest there wouldn't be a reason strong enough to enlist, faith wasn't lacking then, and ulemas and imams kept pointing out the dangers of muslim infighting and the dangers of the christian north. Also there was no shortage of good generals and strategists, each taifa had its heroes, but they were fighting each other, never united on one front. Even in modern days, in countries where there's no mandatory conscription, most of those who enlist are those without good prospects in life. If you get to the emirate of Granada, there's a whole volunteers rank in the Granadan army, something never mentionned before since the time of the Rashidun caliphate, I think because by this time, people really thought "this is it, the last stretch of muslim land in Andalus" but that's just my guess. Sorry I kinda babble a lot. Also can't wait for the Almoravid episode!!!!
@@laenorvelaryon5835 plenty of traitors, tolerance towards moral criminals and much of inter ethnic hate is what made them fall, plus a heavily militaristic and supplied Catholic north.
Great video, as always! I'd only point out that the fall of the Emirate of Saraqusta took place in the early 12th century. The Emirate was annexed to the Almoravid Empire in 1110, and the city was finally captured by Alfonso I of Aragon in December 1118, not in 1086 CE as you state in 8:36.
Hey man! First of all great content in general! Have been through most of your vids now ^^ I realize it's a long shot but I've been living in Altea (not far from Denia) for about a year now and I'm looking to build a historical tour around the Al Ándalus period. I'm struggling to find anything really specific to Altéa or Polop at that time. Anyway I could reach out to you directly? I've never used Patreon but is that an option? Either way thanks a bunch for the content. Very passionate stuff!
But you were the miss congeniality of taifas, that must be something ;) only wish they made up their mind about a cordoban republic-ish 30 years earlier.
@@AlMuqaddimahYT It does nothing to change the reality that it's the middle of the night. You also seem a little too concerned with catching up on things. Your narration is rushed and would benefit from slowing down the pace.
@Arif Ahmed Khan Where did I say that it revolved around me? It's still the middle of the night for Good For Health, 1 A.M. is indeed night, which doesn't change just because it is inconvenient for Al Muqa. And he created the problem when he claimed America needed to "catch up."
@Arif Ahmed Khan Man up? You are the one whining to me because I criticized your hero's response. You also seem to struggle with comprehension. You falsely claimed that I thought the world revolved about me because I criticized his egocentric response. Furthermore, his "request to change" was made in jest. Yes, it's the middle of the night but I doubt he was really expecting him to change the schedule that he uploaded. He was merely commenting on it as was I. In neither of our responses did I see any serious expectation that he'd truly change his schedule. That delusion is in your own mind. As far as why he should change, I already addressed that. If he slowed down his speech, it would make him easier to understand. There really is no need to rush.

@@curiouswanderer7187 yep! Also take a look at paradox's other games: while Ck2 takes place during the early medieval era, Eu4 takes place during early modern era(1400-1800).

In the Arab world it is common among some people to refer to the Arab states as the modern taifas Do you agree with this take? Or are there differences?
Well, in some ways, yes but the war between Muslims and Christians (like it was back then) isn't there anymore so, I'm not sure what to say. Like, all states follow their own interests before everything else.

Please don't throw too much data e.g. names of ppl, tribes, places, etc at once as not all of us are historians with super memories.

What is your field of research if I may ask?
Despite the inherent demographic weakness of the Saqaliba Taifas that the video mentioned, they wielded a greatly outsized military power thanks to their origins as members of the Caliph's elite Sclavonian Guard. The Taifa of Denia alone conquered the Balearic Islands and partially conquered Sardinia, while also raiding Italy. One wonders what they might have done if the stable flow of slaves from the Rus hadn't collapsed along with the Caliphate.
As always, amazing video.
Yeah, they really were something. I actually didn't know they conquered parts of Sardinia, though.
True but I don't think Denia had any chance at further expansion because their initial martial edge wore off quite early, all historical accounts agree that Seville was the strongest taifa, followed by Granada then Zaragoza (which conquered Denia) and Badajoz, but none had any chance at reaching the power of the fallen caliphate.
