      Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I was never told this in the school (Soviet-times). The story went that one person never matters, only the masses count! :-) :-) So we were taught about peasants uprisings...:-) :-) :-)

    • @zoetropo1
      @zoetropo1 6 лет назад

      Endla Pikksaar: peasant uprisings were important in Brittany since Roman times. What makes Brittany unusual is that the peasants’ property rights were strongly protected by law and in practice, because the ruling families remembered that they were of plebeian origin. So, usually it was foreigners such as arrogant Franks and Normans that they rose against.

    Watching these videos and making my own research make me realize why the Britons, here in France, feel so independent because of so much of their history has little to do with the French nation itself, but rather England/Duchy of Brittany etc.
    I don't know if you'll talk about it since it's not the focus of your channel, but if you keep talking of Britanny, it would be good to mention Anne of Brittany since she marks the departure of Brittany under English influence to French influence.
    I was planning on visiting her castle in Britain next summer.

    Really good video. Just one small thing - the Bretons don't speak a Gaelic language - the Gaelic languages are Scottish Gaelic, Irish and Manx. They speak a Brythonic language like the Cornish and the Welsh. Collectively the Gaelic and Brythonic languages are known as the Celtic languages. By the way Happy St. Ivo's Day!

    I was amused by the use of the “Norman Last Supper” from the Bayeux Tapestry when you mentioned the first peace treaty after Ballon, because Odo of Bayeux had Breton connections and just to his left (our right) stands Alan Rufus, leader of the Breton contingent at Hastings. Alan was a male-line descendant of Ridoredh of Vannes, a salt merchant and courtier of Erispoe’s.

    William Longsword’s mother was Poppa of Bayeux and his wife was Sprota of Brittany.
    When William was assassinated in Flanders, Louis IV quashed Normandy and imprisoned William’s son Richard, but Richard was freed by local Gallic lords and remade Normandy in a new mould. A son Richard II and a daughter Hawise married into the Breton Sovereign House, while another daughter Emma became twice Queen of England.

    The river Gouët next to Saint Brieuc in Brittany, comes from the middle Breton word gwed, which means blood, It take its name following the massacre of the Vikings of Saint-Brieuc of the Péran camp by the Bretons of Alan Barbe-torte in 936, and that would have made the river blood red.

      I'm not saying a lot. But likely a few. Alan spent pretty much his entire life in England up until 936 so surely some of his household warriors would've been Anglo-Saxons. The majority of the people he knew up until 936 were probably Anglo-Saxons.

      It was Jean of Landevennec who prepared a Breton army at Montreuil/mer, Jean realized that the Bretons who remained on the native soil were impatient to shake off the Norman yoke. To concentrate the energies of all the Bretons remaining in Brittany it was necessary to have a young valiant and robust leader, it was in the person of Prince Alain who agreed to take the lead of the movement, in 936 (the battle of Plourivo allowed to open the door of Brittany to the Breton armies) firstly he defeated the Normans at Dol and Saint Brieuc, he was recognized Duke in 937, 2 years later he definitively defeated the Normans at Trans-la-foret with the Count Beranger of Rennes and the Count Herbert of Le Mans..
      far from me the idea of offending you my friend, I really enjoy your good work , perhaps you will do a vid about the next period of Brittany or the Bretons during and after the conquest of england, the role of Alan Rufus, and the primordial role of Brittany during the one hundred years war, thank .

    It's interesting that the English language has distinct words, Brittany and Britain, for what is essentialy the same word. Is it something exclusive to English, or is it so in all Germanic languages? In latin based languages it used to be Little Britain and Great Britain, nowdays just droping the Little.

    Error just after 3:44--Breton isn't Gaelic. Welsh, Breton, and Cornish are Celtic languages, as is Gaelic, but they aren't themselves Gaelic.

    Anyone notice between 8:03 and 8:07, there appear to be 2 objects moving center left through the blue part of the sky? I have viewed a number of these video's where more of the same clip has been used and these 2 objects move in unison across the whole blue area of the sky? Anyone else?

      Just noticed them while watching this video and went down to comments section to see if anyone else had spotted these two objects.

    "Cornouaille" - looks like they brought a place name from the old country with them, even though it wound up with a French spelling.

      yes and until the 10th century the Domnonée (Dumnonii, celtic Britons) designated the entire north of the Brittany. The Devon/Dumnonii of GB have given a large contingent of emigrants but this part of the peninsula is called today land of Léon, since the Welsh, come from Caër-Léon ar Wyse, will settle there in large number. The abbots who founded the first monasteries of the Armorican Devon, Saint Pol-Aurelian, Saint Lunar, Saint Samson, Saint Magloire, Saint Méen, are Welsh origin, while Saint Tutwal or Saint Tugdual, first bishop of Tréguier come from the Devon.

      I think this period which is the sphere of your study is one of the most interesting in history.
      Do something about Clovis and his heirs!!!!!!! And something about Carolingian dynasty in East Francia until 911, and in West Francia until 987, what relation was between french and german (including dutch) emerge out of the most powerful empire of it's time.

    You should think about a sub story from this video about the childhoods spent together at the English court whilst in exile from Brittany, maybe the “Court of the 4 Kings” or something like that.

    Not so sure that the Britons were Celts. Consult Oera Linda Book for origins of Celts, which were a blend of Sidonian missionaries, Children of Ivaldi (Cush), and Fryas folk.
