@Heroic Break Crossovers are always really fun and if the chronological playlist was more on point we could slowly see a proper narrative forming. We need more ancient history beyond Mediterranean, Europe during and after Western Rome fell, more Renaissance era, any actual series in India and Central-America, exploration series and series set just before industrial revolution the most.
"This story is very messy" Well, it's a story about pirates, despite all the movies and novels about heroic swashbucklars and pirates, true pirates are always messy ^^
If you read on the time, pirates were LESS messy than actual government armies, like English navy treated sailors WAY worse than most pirate captains did and slavery was rampant, it's really hard to pretend pirates were the bad guys in most cases. Closer to antiheroes than the villainous empires of the era.
oddly enough, most pirates were practically self-employed navy sailors. most pirate ships operated under similar rules as regular navy vessels, but with less formality and bureaucracy.
@@KasumiRINA In treatment of their crewmates? Yeah, that's how pirates recruited most of their crew, because sailors deserted the Navy and went rogue. But in treatment of their prisonners? I'm not sure ^^' And here we're only talking of a specific period o history, the Golen Age of Piracy. I was making a general statement from the ones who captured Julius Caesar, to the somalians who pirate near Suez Canal ;)
just the fact that the jews were able to keep their culture and language for two thousand years despite being spread so thinly and facing constant opposition. they are probably the most resiliant culture in human history
I mean, isn’t it easier for a culture to survive if it’s spread to many places? I would say the Samaritans are more of a mystery, as to how they survived being in a single place.
Should I remind people that King Francis of France had tried to win the imperial title of Roman Emperor himself and lost to Charles? Probably helped give him a grudge against him and why he allowed weapons to be sold here.
THat and the fact that he made an alliance with Suleyman, alliance which lasted for several centuries until Napoléon invade Egypt (wich although not officially part of the empire was a subject of the Ottomans), and they fougth together several times ^^
It very likely had more to do with the Italian Wars, on which the HRE and France had found themselves on opposite sides throughout a few monarchs and a little less to do with the imperial title, which Francis really had no good claim on.
When you were scrolling on RUclips, and find a fresh new video on history, it's too tempting. Edit: How in the heck did I get over 100 likes, that's the most I've every gotten-

It's odd that these kinds of things (the jews being expelled from Portugal) is something that we never learned in our history classes Kind of a shame.. sure learning what we discovered is fun.. but learning of mistakes or unfairness is also helpful
This is certainly a very fun series, however, (or perhaps, because of that) I like the part when you reminded the audience to not ideolize its "heroes" too much, as they were slavers and piracy and war are always messy businesses. BTW, for anyone interested in Jewish history I can recommend a relatively new channel of an outstanding HistoryTuber Sam Aronow.

FYI, Reis is also a surname in Portugal and Spain. If there were a number of pirates in north Africa with that name chances are that at least one of the families that was expelled from Spain had that surname.
Lol what? Watch the video again. He dyed it with henna. If he had dyed it with blood, he would have caught some serious bacterial diseases and would have died.
Prior Q of Annon: The *Great Jew* will strike at Christendom from the heavens with his unholy celestial fire! Trust in the plan of Pope Donaldus, and credit not Pope Joseph for he is an antipope in league with the Devil!
4:22 "Reis" is a very common surname in portuguese and spanish speaking countries, it's the literal translation of "kings" in both languages; it's no surprise that it had so many with the same "title".
reis came from an Arabic word "ra'is" which means chief or leader which came from another Arabic word "ra's" which means head. nowadays Arabs used the word for presidents.
Hayreddin Barbarossa definetly deserves one too, he is the man behind the Ottoman naval domination of Mediterranean and wished to sail to Americas as well. He faced with the Conquistadors who have been to New World, even with Hernan Cortes.
I don't know if it's even particularly accurate to call the 'Barbary corsairs' pirates. They were not outlaws, they were acting with the approval of the Ottoman sultan, and they were not primarily concerned with the theft of wealth and goods being transported by ship. The primary reason they were doing what they were doing was to capture slaves for the Ottoman slave trade, and often did so by raiding coastal settlements. We should probably call them 'slavers'.
The primary motivation was to raid, steal & capture slaves. There is a reason why most of the Southern coast of Spain and Portugal was mostly deserted until the 19th century and all the big cities hold strong forts or castles.
So was the story about Barbarossa rescuing Sinan Reis's son from the Italians one of those stories that was floating around but wasn't true, or was it just cut for time?
Im always happy to see Extra history. But I would love them to do a video on Zayed the great and how he prevented Saudi from controlling the entire gulf.
I think they meant that they had to chase footnotes in order to tell which mentions of a "Sinan Reis" referred to _their_ guy, and which were about some other guy with the same name.
@@Pavlos_Charalambous it wasn't my intention to sound harsh. I genuinely found it funny that they were so confused by something so obvious to native speaker.
Well Jews were also general and hold high administration in Muslim nation during those periods. Because back then Muslim were conservative and secular unlike Europe.
If the city of Nice is a french town today, it is mainly thanks to Khayerddin Barbarosa and his algerian pirates, who took it from Savoy duchy to give to it willingly to French king François 1st in 1543, as this latter was the best ally of Suleiman the magnificient.
