25:20 The Palatine School is probably a refertence to the Scholae Palatinae, a 4th century bodyguard unit that the Emperor Constantine probably founded after he disbanded the Praetorian Guard in 312.
Also, interesting fact, the word "palace" developed from "palatium", as Augustus and many emperors after him had their houses on the Palatine Hill in Rome. The term came to mean the emperors residence, household and even his government. Once the emperors had to move more throughout their empire, it became a term for where ever they had their court.
Drongo, here is the gist of "Byzantine" Empire, very much summarized: Ancient Rome expands into Greece and Macedon circa 146 BCE. The Romans captured the ancient Greek city of Byzantium and over time Romanize it. Centuries later and the Roman Empire moves the capital city to Byzantium and Constantine renames it 'New Rome' and later Constantinople. The Roman Empire is separated into different administrative regions each with their own roman emperors and sometimes they even go to war or fight together in wars against other peoples, it's all messy and complicated. Eventually the Western Roman Empire collapses slowly with the barbarian migrations into the Western Roman Empire and they set up various kingdoms over time. All throughout late antiquity and into the late middle ages there is still the Roman Empire in the Eastern Mediterranean, ruled from Constantinople, with a Roman Emperor ruling regardless of holding the Italian city of Rome or not. Meanwhile in the West, Rome becomes a part of the Papal States and there is a "Holy Roman Empire" all over the place in Central/Western Europe. Eventually in the 15th Century the Ottoman Turks wipe out the Roman Empire and there are no more Roman Emperors. A century or so later still, somewhere in the German parts of the "Holy Roman Empire" a German historian called Hieronymus Wolf decides to "rename" the Roman Empire in the east the "Byzantine Empire" with "Byzantine Emperors" and that German propaganda designed to give the "Holy Roman Empire" more legitimacy since the real Roman Empire was gone, well that German propaganda survives to the 21st century with the renaming of the Roman Empire to the "Byzantine Empire". The Romans never called themselves "Byzantines" or anything similar. They spoke Greek, but many Romans have been speaking Greek in their multi-lingual empire since before Rome had even conquered the Greek speaking world. The Greek language was the language of philosophy, academia, science, art, administration and culture. I hope that helps. I love watching the matches you host. Keep up the good work mate. Best wishes from Melbourne.
The Byzantine empire was a sort of nickname for the eastern Roman empire that eventually stuck as a means to differentiate them from the western Roman empire that included Rome herself. The name comes from the city of Byzantium that was chosen as the capital of the empire and renamed to Constantinople. The people of the empire considered themselves Romans which, after a couple of centuries, became almost synonymous with Greek. One of the voice lines for the cataphracts in the game is Greek for "time to ride Romans"
I don't think the term "Byzantine" was ever really used by anyone in the medieval world until Hieronymus Wolf in the 16th century, after the empire had already fallen. The Eastern Romans themselves used "Rhomai" ofc, and their Muslim neighbours used "Rumi" - both meaning "Romans". Western Europe didn't use the term Byzantine, but rather terms like "Greek" or "Constantinople" - eg, they would refer to the Eastern Roman Emperor as the "Emperor of the Greeks" or "Emperor of Constantinople". That being said, Western Europeans still used "Roman" often enough to describe Eastern Rome - for example, when French and Italian crusaders sacked and took over Constantiople in 1204, they still called the state they now ruled the Imperium Romanorum (though we now refer to it as the Latin Empire).
also, cheeky tip for Byz, if you play 2v2 or higher and one opponent dies you can raid all their vills still with horses to get free gold@@AussieDrongo
4:04 Dragon villagers have pushcarts which increase carry capacity by +40% This means prior to wheelbarrow 10 would become 14 and afterwards 15 would become 21
4:04 you were thinking wheelbarrow is +7 because IT IS +7 I think that tooltip (+5) is wrong, the villagers do have 14 carry capacity for those berries and it improves to 21 after the upgrade

Hi Drongo, I absolutely love your content but if you allow me to say that the song you play is for John Cena "The Time is now" not The Viper which is another WWE player that has a different song. Thanks and keep up the good work!

The intro for the viper was a nice funny touch, thank you Drongo
I love the concept of the Byzantines. My Duo Mate and me are currently trying combos out and them combined with the English worked the best so far
try with the ottomans, build the berry landmark in the byzantine base next to their winery landmark 📈

@@AussieDrongo This sounds like illegal knowledge
Pink is 100% a French person / french speaking 😂 "Jeanne, au Secouuuuurs" is some kind of video meme
Jeanne! Au secours! Sacré JM
Perfect start into the weekend 😊
please don't ever stop doing that viper intro
Where is Sam?!? 1:49
The fade away hit on the prelate 😂
4:04
Dragon villagers have pushcarts which increase carry capacity by +40%
This means prior to wheelbarrow 10 would become 14 and afterwards 15 would become 21
Palatine hill is a famous hill in Rome, so I imagine the Byzantines repurposed the word
Dropping castles is a good strategy.
Nice touch from the Viper to get those free 🆓 building kills with the bombards firing down the cliff.
another amazing cast
4:04 you were thinking wheelbarrow is +7 because IT IS +7 I think that tooltip (+5) is wrong, the villagers do have 14 carry capacity for those berries and it improves to 21 after the upgrade
Hre and ootd villa has +40%, carry capacity, so 10 + 40% is 14, with wheelbarrow 15 + 40% is 21 so it works as intended.
Looks like more Apm for the Viper, not neglecting relics either and very good of him to starve the byzantynes out of gold
Viper game oh boy never disappoints
the john cena intro is so fucking epic, please keep it haha
THAT MONK PLAY 😝
STRAELBORAAA
Hello mr drongo! Would you mind putting the map name somewhere on your casts? You probably say it but im dumb and may miss it. Sorry if Im not seeing!
Fun fact! "Jeanne au secours" is a reference to a French fascist politician.

Drongos baaack
Hey! You didn't mark this video with The Viper, neither in the thumbnail or title, I nearly missed it!
I don't understand why The viper gets John Cena's music intro, instead of randy Orton's, who actually called The viper
maybe a ping issue? the horses werent even near the monk and the monk died....
Welcome back
Nice.
Keep in mind: 6
not a purple byzantine... 🤭
I am Sam. Sam I am!
😂
It's been so long, that I haven't seen your face.. (heard your voice rather)
Miss ur video sir ...
Always find myself placing the aqueducts in straight lines along the grid. Is this practical or is it just for an aesthetic purpose ?
Hello, it's me Sam
😅
jo tagchen wie gehts so?
Es ist ein wunderbarer Tag um Drongo zu schauen
Wwe fans keep being triggered by john cenas theme over the viper (randy orton) name lol
I dont understand the hype about this viper dude... who is he?
Everyday i wait for. Your video and. You are always late 😡
What is it with AoE casters just using the word "pumping"? lol. Pumping what? Shouldn't it be "pumping out" units and not "pumping units".
What is it with youtube commenters not understanding Australian?
Isn't it just gaming slang, for some time now? Pumping numbers or pumping dps are common terms in WoW at least.
@@DeutscherDummer right. Pumping "numbers" pumping "dps", pumping "units". But not just "pumping"
