    Some mistakes : in 11th and 12th centuries, Normandy was part of France. The local ruler happened to be the Duke of Normandy, who was also King of England, but his French territories were part of the Kingdom of France, for which he was vassal to the French King.

      Not just Normandy, technically the French part of the "Angevin Empire" was still France. So it's the same.
      It's just that in those few instances (and many other ones) the King of France's power didn't reach that territory. Which happened a lot in the kingdom of France, as the king had very limited powers, compared to his nobles.

      Also, it's West Francia, not just Francia. The Western nobility was romanized, so a French identity quickly developed. But the Eastern two parts of Charlemagne's empire, which his other two sons got, kept their Germanic Franconian identity - and the name. There were West Francia, East Francia and in the middle - Lothringia, named after the third son Lothar.

    There are a few issues with accuracy and consistency in this video, probably more than I myself notice, but they should be pointed out:
    -The flag apparently posing as the Merovingian/Carolingian standard is actually an imaginative rendering of the Oriflamme, a flag that was used during the high and late middle ages, and whose existence can only be confidently traced from the 11th century onwards. I don't know of any surviving Carolingian flags, though it doesn't matter so much as standardized, let alone national flags did not exist at this time at all.
    -During the Merovingians and Carolingians, the state was divided up according to the principles of patrimonium, meaning that the whole state was treated as the personal property of the king that his sons equally divide among each other. This was the cause of many civil wars throughout this age, Francia commonly being divided into 3/4 practically independent states; but there is no trace of it in the video.
    -In an opposite twist of events, the situation during the Hundred years' war and prior, during the reign of Philippe Augustus, is portrayed as if France was just a spec on the map! Much of France was controlled by the English king and his domestic allies, but these provinces still remained the kingdom of France. The English king was looking to crown himself with the French crown, not go bring the English crown to France.

      The map is far to small in scale. Non French bits like Newhaven (aka Havre), Ponthieu, and English Flanders (Calais, Graveling and so forth), even Ham in Picardy was once upon a time not French. Also all that territory annexed of little old Monaco needs to shown blown up. Furthermore, Papal Avignon was seriously way bigger than that little white speck shown. To be honest, one could write 10 volume book on the territorial history of what is nowadays France. One gets the feeling that the deep state/Satanists don’t won’t folk knowing how much land has been annexed into France and suchlike.

These Franks were allowed by the Romans to settle on the left bank of the Rhine (so mostly in the southern Netherlands, Flanders, Wallonia and parts of northern France).

      The House of Capet was Frankish, even though talking of a Frankish doesn’t mean anything at that point since they all mingled with the local gallo-roman. Their title when Hughes Capet ascended the throne was Rex Francorum, latin for King of the Franks, and was an official title up until the Revolution. The term France and Francia is actually the same, because Francia means France in Latin. The term Rex Franciae, which means King of France/Francia was commonly used starting from Philippe II, when the royal authority meant to assert its claim over a certain defined territory instead of a loose Frankish identity. It is also during that time when ancient French language came more and more prevalent in the court administration instead of Latin, hence the use of France. The distinction between France and Francia is made by historians in order to differentiate the Merovingian and Carolingian period with the rest of French History.
      Also the same way the term Byzantine Empire was historically never used to qualify the eastern part of the Roman Empire, at least not 300 years after the fall of Constantinople. The Hellenic identity of the eastern part of the Empire has always been the case since these lands were conquered by the Republic. Saying that the Eastern Roman Empire was called Byzantine Empire because it was becoming more Greek is just wrong.

      @@Kingleazard Merovingians were Frankish. France - as a state, nation or even concept - didn't exist yet, as I already mentioned. The French as a people (nation) didn't even exist yet, but were formed during these period (8th century).
      Franks were a Germanic people (the French a Romance people). There were Salian and Ripuarian Franks. The Salians were allowed to settle in the WRE, on the left bank of the Rhine by the Roman empire and settled mostly in northern France - where the langues d'oïl, like French, are spoken - Wallonia, Flanders and the Southern Netherlands and can be considered the ancestors of modern Flemish and Dutch people. Their language Old Frankish or Old Low Franconian is also known as Old Dutch (that's not a coincidence). Clovis, a Merovingian, was a Salian Frank. So was Charlemagne, at least partially, his mother was Ripuarian. Ripuarian Franks didn't settle in Gaul until after the fall of the WRE. They can be considered the ancestors of certain German - not Germanic peoples - peoples (namely Franconians).
      Old French came to exist around the region of Paris and would soon spread across most of modern day France (due to the nobility speaking it or due to it being enforced) during the next centuries. French people are basically Gallo-Romans (Gauls who absorbed a minority of Romans and along with them most of their culture and language), who absorbed a minority of Frankish peoples who settled in that region, along with parts of their culture and language. Do note that the border in the 8th century (majority Germanic - majority Romance) used to be more to the south than it is today; most of that is due to French conquest and the popularity of French amongst the nobility after the 10th century.
      Do not conflate the "Franks"/"Francs" with the French/français. The French were named after them (do note that "Frank" was used for Western Europeans in general in Greece and the Middle East during the medieval period). The Germans that came from them as well (Franconian); the Dutch/Flemish dropped the name. The Merovingians can be dated back to the 5th century (Childeric I) and the Salian Franks further. The oldest accounts we have of Old French date back to the 8th century (langues d'oïl were some of the first Romance languages to differentiate from Vulgar Latin - the form of Latin that was used for daily conversation - due to the extra influence they experienced from the Frankish language). So even chronologically that wouldn't be possible.
      It is of course true that Gallo-Romans, and later the first French people, were the majority population in (most parts of) Gaul.

      No, Francia is an actual English word. Even the French language distinguishes France from Francia (France - Francie).
      "The distinction between France and Francia is made by historians in order to differentiate the Merovingian and Carolingian period with the rest of French History."
      So why do historians still refer to "Francia" as "Francia" during the Carolingian period. The Carolingians were Franks and spoke a Germanic language. It indeed exists to differentiate, just like Byzantium, as I mentioned. But not the Merovingian period from the Carolingian period. Namely, as the name implies, the Frankish period from the French period. It's really that simple.
      "when ancient French language came more and more prevalent in the court administration instead of Latin"
      Oh, god, there's so much wrong here. First off, the French language isn't ancient. Old French is medieval (8th century). Secondly, it didn't replace Latin among the nobility. The Frankish nobility spoke Old Frankish, unless it was in a religious context (but so did the French).
      "Also the same way the term Byzantine Empire was historically never used to qualify the eastern part of the Roman Empire, at least not 300 years after the fall of Constantinople."
      Correct, your point being?
      "The Hellenic identity of the eastern part of the Empire has always been the case since these lands were conquered by the Republic."
      There's no relation here? The Hellenic identity has always been the case because the Romans accepted Hellenic culture (in fact, they accepted many different cultures; often they never even actively tried to Romanise the regions they conquered).
      "Saying that the Eastern Roman Empire was called Byzantine Empire because it was becoming more Greek is just wrong."
      Yes it is wrong, but I didn't say that. I never said it "was" (at least not until the 17th century) called that way. I said we do it today for that particular reason. That being said; it's not because Philippe II decided to claim the Frankish identity, like the Byzantine Greeks, like the Germans of the HRE, like the Turkish of Rûm, like how even Russia claimed to be "Romans" or their legitimate successors that they actually were Franks/Romans.
      I implore you to do a little research on who the Franks actually were, their language, as well as the (Old) French language. And perhaps maybe also do a little research on the ethnogenesis of the French people.
      Also, the house of Capet was French, not Frankish (quote me a single source that makes that outrageous claim). Franks were a Germanic people and have always been so (also quote me a single source that contradicts that statement).
      Also, does this sound like French or an early form of French to you? www.language-museum.com/encyclopedia/f/frankish.php
      Or here for phonetics: ruclips.net/video/jefaToEtXH4/видео.html
      Here's a little more information about the Frankish language: ruclips.net/video/hMrLt4iqOHk/видео.html
      www.britannica.com/topic/Frankish-dialect
      Wikipedia has pages about it (and Old French and Vulgar Latin) too, if you prefer that.
      I suppose you're probably French. So, bonne journée!

      @@ewoudalliet1734 There are may things in your answer that tries to make me say things that I didn't say.
      Franks does not equate to French people, this is a fact yes, but the mingling of the Frankish people with the gallo-romans gave birth to the French people. That's what I said. During the High medieval ages, there was a distinction between the Franks and the Gallo-Roman population in Gaul, which became more blurry by the end of the Carolingian period.
      The title of King of the Franks was indeed used by the French monarchy, it doesn't that I personally consider the Franks as French. I don't know where you got the idea that I'm conflating Franks with French people.
      The Franks in Gaul were just a minority and formed in large part the nobility, that's why I said the House of Capet is frankish. Maybe you will disagree and call me ignorant or whatever. Instead of reading me, who is not a historian, maybe I would suggest you to read these two articles: 'The Origins of the French Nobility: A Reassessment' by Bouchard and 'Nobility and Family in Medieval France: A Review Essay' by Bisson who go far more in depth than whoever might write on RUclips can go.
      It's not because Francia and Francie are actual words in English and French that my point is wrong. Francia in latin does mean France. Here again you can read, if you haven't read it, 'The "Regnum Francie" of Suger of Saint-Denis: An Expansive Ile-de-France' by Jeremy duQuesnay Adams, where the author explains the relation between France, Francia and the royal domain.
      On language I used the term 'ancient French' as in Old French yeah, it doesn't look like modern French. The gallic populace spoke vulgar latin which evolved into the different languages that the people in France spoke, including the langue'Oïl. The Frankish nobility spoke Old Frankish indeed, but they did switched to latin and Old French at some point.
      And I think there's nothing to add on the Eastern Roman Empire since it seems we both agree on that matter :)

    from around 1150 where we see a large part of the territory lost, in particular Aquitaine, it is not really true, it certainly belonged to the Plantagenêts but they were not king of these territories in France but Duke (duke of Aquitaine...). is to say that these territories were still part of the kingdom of France and the Plantagenet kings had to pay tribute to the kings of France as duke of his territories in France. Besides, it posed problems because the lords of Aquitaine did not know if they should join their duke (Plantagenêt) or their king (king of France) in the event of war between the French king and the English king.

      Most people in modern day France could in theory all be descended from the Capetians with how long ago they were formed but it would be impressive to be able to trace back your lineage all the way back to then

      @@sirruadhri3316 yeah what’s cool though is on my moms side her mom traced back to the caroligegin dynasty and her dad traced back to the Capetian dynasty so they are traced back to relatives but from 2 diff family members

    The very last présidents of on this list doesnt deserve to appear. They are a shame to french history. Gave our country to arabs and financials without even a fight. Just for their narrow interests.
    Et surtout, surtout, vive la France !
    Nice choice of set of musics by the way.
