i very love this video.
sacrifice
Falconhoof was at the battle.
For the algorithm!
3% of english males population?? mean England population at that time is more than 2 million
but England population reached 3 million in the second half of 16 century after 100 years
that mean the death toll of this battle is very very high
Beautifully done. As always
The Battlefield has a lovely walk and remains largely untouched other than farming
Trying to make the same video on my own channel, thx for all the great information. But pls upload Hannibal part 20
🐐 of YouTube 🔥🔥💯💯
Falkenberg was a fucking gangster
25:23 "de rigeur" is French for "obligatory" or "in the nature of the thing", in case anyone else didn't quite catch that.
Maybe one of the most epic battles in history. The scale and the stakes are so massive it seems more like something out of a fantasy novel than an actual historic occurence. No wonder it inspired ASoIaF.
Ok the shining crown noise is new and I’m not a fan I thought something was pinging in my house lol. 😂
Great video, will be happy to see more videos on tWotR prefarebly lesser covered battles lika Whakefield, Hexham, Blore Heath or Mortimers Cross to Tewkesbury, Barnet or Bosworth field.Many Thanks for all great content

What a marvelous video 👌👏👏. I was absolutely pumped with the narrator and the arc of this story. This was better than a feature film.
What a meat grinder.

The eternal shame of drowning in the River Cock……..
Mowbray to recuse; as the late appearance of those delayed East Anglian troops turning up in the exposed left flank of the Lancastrians is the decisive moment that decides this battle and cements Edward place as king. Instituting ten years of Yorkist rule before the next big clash between the sides in 1471.
This where the term trollop comes from?
Wow.
