      And the map is still a simplification, leaving out many of the subdivisions. For instance, what's just called "Ziegenhain" in this map from the 13th century onward should really include the county of Battenberg, which then splits into the counties of Battenberg and Wittgenstein, only to be consumed by Mainz and Hesse shortly after.
      Germany is a mess. :-)

      It's the same guy, but with a different name for every title. He was the third Count of Flanders with the name Philip, so that's why they called him Philip III in Flanders. In Luxemburg he was called Philip I, because he was their first Duke ever with the name Philip. This is European feudalism.

    Small mistake, the Rhine River up until around the year 1000 primarily went through the Leidsche Rijn and the Kromme Rijn, which are nowadays no longer really where it goes through.
    The place where the NetherRhine splits into the Kromme Rijn and the Lek is the city of Dorestad or Wijk bij Duurstede.
    The Northern Leidsche Rijn formed the Roman Frontier, which thus included cities like Utrecht, which are no longer on the main stream of the Rhine.

      Yes, a lot of those rivers and side streams shifted or regrouped in a different way. I only recently realized, the collapsed the roman settlement "Nijmegen" and the later refounded Carolingian "Nijmegen" are a few kilometers off duo to the shift and regroup of the rivers between the 4th and the 8th century.

      @nico210 Před měsícem +1

      What is native and what is not?
      Dutch is modern frankish, apart from the Frisians who are indeed more closely related to the saxons.
      Franks have lived quite separated from the saxons since the roman times, so although they're both germans and "not high" (with all the historic bagage), it would be amazing that they would be so close (more close than Saxon and Danish maybe, but not that much).

  • @franzjosephikaiservonaustr5525

    Great map as usual! However, i would like to note (although i'd doubt anyone would be misinformed by this tiny mistake) that despite the country still bearing the formal name _Deutsches Reich_ until 1945, the country name used in the labels from 1919 - 1945 should be something else, maybe the _German Reich_ instead of the _German Empire_. Using the labels "Empire" post-1919 might be erroneous or confusing for some people. Still, the video is great as usual and i can't imagine the amount of work that had to be done to complete all of this.

      Also to add a bit, the left white area near France between Oldenburg's exclave and the Palatinate was actually already annexed by Prussia in 1834 (The Principality of Lichtenberg). Still, of course there's loads of small principalities here and mistakes here and there are beyond normal.

      Yeah but it was quite a loose control. Gallia was conquered one century before by Caesar, who murdered millions of people there, probably one of the first genozids in history. If that would also have happen in Germany, they would probably stay for longer, but germany at that time was also too cold and uninteresting too. Just Forests, pure wilderness and so on.
