  • Опубликовано: 13 авг 2024
  • In 407 AD, the peace in the Roman controlled Iberian peninsula was disrupted. Having recently migrated from the middle Danube, crossed the Rhine, invaded and pillaged Gallia, Vandals, Alans and Suebi traversed the Pyrenees mountains. Entering and ravaging the fresh lands of Hispania for two years, they soon sought to settle in the province.

    Honestly the most overlooked part of Portuguese history, the suebic kingdom layed the foundations for the County of Portugal by increasing the relevance of Bracara Augusta and Portus Cale, centralizing political and religious power. The spaniards pay a lot of respect to their visigothic predecessors, its about time Portugal does the same with the Suebi.

      I once made a point in another video on how the Suebians can safely be considered the first people to speak portuguese, as some of the inovations that are unique to the portuguese language (as far as romance languages go), namely the way that the days of the week are called, were first adopted by the people living in the diocese of Braga at the 6th century, which, if I'm not mistaken, at that point encompassed the entirety of the Suevic kingdom

    A group of Suebi/Suevi crossed the Mediterranean into North Africa, gone to Carthage And when Justinian sent Belisarius who defeated Geleric the Vandal king of Carthage many Vandals and some Suebi fled to the Mountains of then Numidia and the région became known Sueva- Zveva and Zweva.
    Currently Kabylia....a whole clan from the Kabylian Tribe is still called Zweva and Zwewa.
    Bringing the last name Zwewi/Suevi widespread from Kabylia to Northern Tunisia .

    Great Video! I would love to see similar videos done on other Germanic tribes, like the Ostrogoths in particular. From their settlement in Pannonia to their acquisition of Italy their timeline is very obscure. Especially when looking on maps for dates like 476 CE and still seeing them settled in Pannonia even though Theodoric and his father had likely taken the bulk of the Ostrogoths into the Eastern Roman Empire in 473 CE.

    Why so many peoples from North Europe went to Iberia?
    GERMANIC FAMINES -Famines affected all Germany areas for many times. In a regular way existed great famines especially from 1315/17 until the worst famine of 1845/48.
    The Volga Germans experienced periodic famines brought about by both natural and man-made causes.
    FAMINES IN NORTH EUROPE IN MEDIEVAL AGE
    Famines caused by crop failures and poor crop years were an ever present danger in medieval Europe. It was often not possible to relieve a famine in one area by importing grain from another area as the difficulty of overland transportation caused the price of grain to double for each 50 miles it was transported.
    One study concluded that famines in Europe occurred on an average every 20 years between the years 750 and 950. The principal causes were extreme weather and climatic anomalies which reduced agriculture production. Warfare was not found to be a major cause of famine. A study of crop failures in Winchester, England from 1232 to 1349 found that harvest failure occurred an average of every 12 years for wheat and every 8 years for barley and oats. Localized famine may have occurred in years in which one or more crops failed. Weather was again identified as the chief cause. Climatic change may have played a part as the Little Ice Age may have begun between 1275 and 1300 with a consequent shortening of the growing season.
    Warfare was apparently responsible for a major famine in Hungary from 1243 to 1245. These were the years in the aftermath of the Mongol invasion and widespread destruction. Twenty to fifty percent of the population of Hungary is estimated to have died of hunger and war.
    The best known and most extensive famine of the Middle Ages was the Great Famine of 1315-1317 (which actually persisted to 1322) that affected 30 million people in northern Europe, of whom five to ten percent died. The famine came near the end of three centuries of growth in population and prosperity. The causes were "severe winters and rainy springs, summers and falls." Yields of crops fell by one-third or one-fourth and draft animals died in large numbers. The Black Death of 1347-1352 was more lethal, but the Great Famine was the worst natural catastrophe of the later Middle Ages.
    - In Iberia, there was no such famines as in North Europe, because the weather was much better, warm temperature , long day light, mild winters, without the frozens, ice, snow and hard cold winds of the North and because of the Arab Agricultural Revolution, the Arab Muslim rulers of much of Al Andalus (8th through the 15th centuries) introduced or popularized a large number of new crops and new agricultural technology into the Iberian peninsula (Spain and Portugal). The crops introduced by the Arabs included sugar cane, rice, hard wheat (durum), citrus, cotton, and figs. Many of these crops required sophisticated methods of irrigation, water management, and "agricultural technologies such as crop rotation, management of pests, and fertilizing crops by natural means."
    During many famines in North Europe, Portugal exported grains, meat, olive oil, wine, sardine and several other products to England and several other European countries who were usually hard affected by these famines.

      Many typical Spanish surnames are Visigothic in origin. Fernandez, Rodriguez, Sanchez, Martinez, Gonzalez, Alvarez , Gomez ect.. Spaniards and Portuguese also bring up our Celtic aka Celtiberian ancestors but forget the Germanic tribes that entered Hispania, not just the Visigoths but the Suebi, Buri, Vandals, Alans..
      As a Spaniard of Galician heritage, today I'm Christian and speak Castilian aka Spanish instead of Arabic praying to Allah 20 times a day thanks to Visigothic Nobleman Don Pelayo. Valiant warrior King of the North. King of Asturias. Crowned KIng by the loyal men who fought alongside him. Seeder of the Reconquista and their descendants who continued forming small Christian Kingdoms in the North, fighting and resisting for 700 years. Generation to generation. (Instead of running away into France) slowly expanding until the whole of Iberia was free of the peaceful messengers of islam in 1492AD, when the remaining Christian Kingdoms united to become Spain. 🇪🇸 (Except for the Kingdom of Portugal 🇵🇹 because they're special but I still love them.)
      Muslims like to brag how they "ruled Iberia for 800 years. "
      But what they fail to mention is that the Reconquista pretty much started straight away. And that the tiny Christian Kingdoms of the North were not part of Al Andalus. They also fail to mention that by the 12th century (1100s) half of Hispania was back in Indo European Christian hands. And by the mid 13th century 96% of Hispania had been reconquered. They fail to mention that the islamic kingdom of Granada was allowed to remain as long as they paid tribute to the Kingdom of Castile. Until they made the mistake of attacking a Christian settlement in the late 15th century.
      Today the gates of Toledo have once again been opened into Europa and the West...

    Excellent video. Thanks for your work. From this content and what is known, I'm guessing northwest Iberia remained in Visigoth control after the fall of the Suebi for only around 100 years before the Moors invaded? This means that, in that particular area, the Suebi occupation was longer and probably had more influence in local language and culture than the Visigoth. Interesting. People should dig deeper the connection between the Suebi and the portuguese/galician.

    Yes in Minho there are much more Blondes. Portuguese Phenotype
    The physical anthropology of the Portuguese people.
    Blonde hair is the type of hair corresponding to an unequal sexual figure, where female individuals imply a greater emphasis on the opposite of the male sex.
    This hair class accounts for 17.75% of males and 23.23% of females. The average percentage of blonde hair in the general population is therefore 20%.
    Blondes exist all over the country. But from a general point of view, the entire mountainous region of the north of the Tagus, with the exception of the coast and the mouth of the Douro, is where the population is significantly blonde. The southern provinces - Extremadura, Alentejo and Algarve, are generally comparatively micrometric.
    By districts, the northern provinces are significantly blonde in the districts of Viseu, Guarda, Braga, Bragança and Viana do Castelo.
    In the southern and coastal region of the country, small differences are noted in Faro, Lisbon, Santarém, Coimbra, Évora, Portalegre and Beja, respectively.
    In short, the country is heterogeneous when it comes to the distribution of blonde hair. On the Beirão plateau, in the mountains of Trás-os-Montes and mainland Minho, is where the population is significantly blonde. In the coastal regions and plains of Alentejo there is already a relatively small percentage of this type of hair. The adjacent islands still show an equally vulgar percentage, where only the district of Angra do Heroísmo has another excess of blonde hair.
