    I really wish these were toned down a bit. The background music is ridiculous - these are multi-hour videos - dramatic music isn't going to keep the short attention spans around.

    I've always thought that a "thief's cloak" design might work well for a lady's garment. The design includes many hidden closable pockets sewn into the lining of the garment. It works best for jackets, coats, etc, but can work for any garment as long as you can easily reach inside without drawing undue attention to yourself.

    Hardrada took the idea of birds on fire from Helge, the widow of Ingvar Ruricson. However, it was done more diligently than is poised in this docudrama. Helge's warriors attached to each bird a piece of thin wooden chip,of enough length, so the bird would not burn fast and would reach its nest unharmed.

    Alvarado didn't just decide to massacre the priests during a religious festival.
    What do Azteca do at religious festivals? Cut out hearts.
    Alvarado warned them not to sacrifice humans.
    One side sees it as a foul blasphemy and the other decides to antagonize them and press on. It was not the right choice. After that they had no protection from what law protected them and the Spanish could do as they pleased with them.

      Forget the modern applied name and what we use it as nowadays but instead use the historic information of what they actually did and how. Now apply how they enacted their missions and detail how these are any different to how modern special forces who are tasked with removing a military target (assassinate).....rarely are they sent to capture them. It is the same as a sniper.....he is used to 'assassinate' enemy senior officers from a distance, not to injury or scare but kill.
      You should do some research on Special Forces and Black Op forces and missions that they are tasked with removing persons seen as threats and whether it was ever assumed that this meant anything other than killing them.

      Facts are facts, and this information and history of the Ismaili has been well known for a long time. They were a small clan who were surrounded by enemies and assumed enemies, and formed a small fighting force that removed key figures that direct the actions and opposition forces rather than trying to take them on in a military way.....which they will lose. How is this different to the creation of the SAS in North Africa, taking on Rommel, it consisted of a very small group of people who used surprise tactics and speed with on the ground new tactics to take on a greatly superior force....and were for the most part effective.

    What brought the Middle East to prosperity in the Middle Ages was the Sunni majority. The Umayah Dynasty, Abasiah Bukhara, Taj Mahal, Mugal, India to Ottoman Turkey. The rest were rioting rebels who had not yet finished with their past, trying to avenge themselves in the name of Islam but killing Muslims (Sunnis). In the past, there was a Persian Zoroastrian named Buwaih, he pretended to convert to Islam and joined the Shia sect. He took advantage of Shia revenge to overthrow the prosperous Baghdad. He modified the Shia sect according to the desires of his own lustful thoughts. It was clear that it was out of the Islamic order. What's worse, when he conquered Baghdad, he forced Baghdad's supporters to eat dogs, which was clearly should not in Islam.

    Vikings were probably a minority amongst the Norse, and berserks were definitely a minority amongst warriors. (They called them berserks, not berserkers.) Each group looked down on the others. How much of the berserk’s crazed actions were real and how much was intended as intimidation is still debated. With a sword costing as much as a house, spears and one-handed axes were far more common. And the inscription in Hagia Sophia says “Halfdan”. Just “Halfdan”. No “was here”.

    • @iainrendle7989

      Think you need to read some books and learn what 'Viking' or actually vikingr was, which was someone that went vikingr ie raiding. Many of the Jarls went vikingr, and it became the norm during the viking age, as if you wanted to remain Jarl then you needed to bring plunder, trade or land to your people, if not you were quickly replaced.
