The only surviving record about imam Ahmed is from his own chronicler his book is "Futuh Al Habesha" he never mentioned the using of ottoman weapons at the battle of "shimbrakure" or at the first phase of the conquest I doubt the sources you used. can you mention your sources
1.the wall was made for Oromos not for the Ethiopians

Cheers from Portugal 🇵🇹!
Thinking the same since my childhood,

Its because you are so far away and there is no political gain from politicians on either side to exploit.

As a Black American, its really amazing to learn about these ancient African civilizations like Aksum, Abyssinia, Somalia, Adal, Nubia, Cush and different people like the Bantu, Swahili, Nilotes and others. I had no idea Ethiopia's history was this rich. They're easily the most underrated nation in history.
Theres alot of
Great
African empires
That exist like the numbian
Empire and bali empire in central and northern africa they controled the
Major trade in spice ,slaves ,ivory and gold
Out going major empires
Like purtoges ,ottoman
And other europian country
Lol Axum and Abyssinia were Ethiopias former name.
Adal is a Somali empire bruh.
Somalia was always fighting them with 10% of their population and we always took them till they called for back up. Ethiopia are easily the softest in East africa

Imagine being the King's son, newly ascended to the throne of a crumbling nation, fraught with grief for your father and the sure disappointment you will bring to his name in the coming end to this war, when all of a sudden, you see that out of a dust storm on the Red Sea, you sight the billowing flag of the Portuguese Navy as dozens of great warships sail into harbor. Offloading hundreds of soldiers and thousands of muskets, their captain comes up to you, pauses, and offers you his hand, saying: "Olá meus irmãos. Ouvimos sua ligação e agora estamos aqui para ajudar." :)
The order of christ cross would had been a formidable sight :)
@TheCrazyKid138l Not at that time, Portuguese did it without the help of other christian kingdom, on the contrary..;)
u exaggerated it. first, there were at best hundreds of soldiers and only 400 musketeers the rest were made in Ethiopia, the warship weren't used in that battle nor were that many, not even close.
he died in that war King's son,
17:54 That single Portuguese musketeer wasn't shouting orders. He was shouting "PORTUGAL CARALHO!" 🇵🇹 😂
He's was saying that imam ahmed was shouting orders as the portuguese was rushing at him
@@darklight8338
Ah, yes. I listened to it again, closely, and I believe you're right. My mistake. He was speaking of Imam Ahmad shouting orders, not the Portuguese musketeer.
@Don't be evil, They said
Yeah, I heard that part about it likely not having occured that way. However, if it did, that's what I like to imagine the Portuguese musketeer was shouting as he charged Ahmad. lol
@Don't be evil, They said
The channel always mentions all records, the likely and unlikely ones.
@Don't be evil, They said
No it is not.
They mention that it is "legend" they don't try to pass it as fact.
Not a lot of people know this but Ottomans helped Somalis to fight back Portuguese and their African allies of Ethiopians, that Friendship between Somalis and Turks still strong.
Yeah, I learned about that last year from the Channel From Nothing. I hope one day King's and Generals covers the Battles between the Ajuraan Empire and Portugal.

Next time do the Ajuran-Portuguese war!
This war stopped Portuguese colonialism from Somali coast.
Portuguese colonialism only started after loosing the trade in the Indias. And it was focused on Brasil.
Portugal only made an effort to colonize african territories after giving Brasil its independence.
Get your facts straight and stop eating communist propaganda!
@@TheMokaKiller communist?🥴
Not colonialism, the interest was trading.
@@danielconde13 i dont think there interest was to trade with us Somalis cuz they wanted to attack Mogadishu with a large fleet and they plundert barawe before but thanks to our navy back then they did not even stand a chance
@@SalX22 hello; no my friend, Portugal was for sure a colonial empire, but the early stages of this mega venture was to reach India and secure its trade for us.
The conquest and or construction of forts, garrisons, and the establishment of treaties served the interest of snatch the Indian trade from our rivals - namely the Ottomans and Venice.
Colonialism came precisely after the disastrous Iberian Union, where we lost the monopoly of India, and then turned to further exploit the territories of Brasil. Even the African territories of Angola, Moçambique and Bissau are a much later affair.

The fact that Africa had such empires tells us that they arent third world countries,but that they were great statesmen,merchants and warriors and not just "uneducated" and "poor" people,but more than that
@Forsaken Janissary Actually, many Africans voluntarily converted to Islam and then created large empires. Mansa Musa's wealth resulted more than from a trade in slaves. Mali's wealth derived from it being situated between lucrative trade routes connecting North Africa with lands south of the Sahara. Gold and salt were shipped through these routes. Mali's taxation of trade routes is what made Mali and its emperors exorbitantly wealthy.
the term 3rd war country refers to non aligned countries . first world are countries in Nato, second world countries in the Warsaw pact third world country the rest
@@opakular Yes we must agree that most of conversions from one faith to another,has ocured from political or economic reasons
@@brownsnakeded What i meant with 3rd world country wasnt their participation in organizations,i meant that most of people in Europe in the Americas and in Asia think that Africans are people that lived in tribes,in the jungle without any knowledge of statecraft or economics or warfare,but that is completely untrue because in Africa there have been a lot of great empires and that the perception of African continent as a 3rd world continet must stop
@@electrix1873 then say that and stop miss using terms
Don Cristovão da Gama, the commander of the Portuguese volunteers, was the youngest son of Vasco da Gama. He is buried in the small rural town of Degoma, east of Lake Tana in Northern Ethiopia. Degoma is a local rendition of da Gama.

It was a well researched and presented episode !! Thank you from Ethiopia
I am portuguese and two years ago I went to visit Ethiopia and I was astonished to find closed the Nilos River a bridge made by the portuguese and in Gadar a castle made also by my ancestors. This castle is similar we find today is Portugal.
You should visit Somalia there are also lots of historical buildings.
Thanks for visiting the 13 months of sunshine, and for the military support at that time, but the the truth is the castel of Emperor Fasilades in Gondar city was not built by portugiese
let me brief it. the portugies armey with 400 men lead by Christofer Dagama arrived in 16th century, after the battle was completed some of them remain in the country. in the early 17th century Empror Susiniyos converted to Catholics. after this incidence the people of Abyssinia rebel on him. after that he succeed the thrown to his son Fasil or Fasiladas as an Emperor. immediately the Emperor sent out all foreign nations in the country. this is called the close door policy, that is why Ethiopia is not active in world politics for about 300years until 19 th century.
The castels was built by the Emperor Fasiladas regime means that after all forigns were out.
So are you claiming the Gondor palaces ?????? In Ethiopia we believe we built them ourselves 😯

Today's battle is sponsored by the Ottoman empire, one of the biggest empire of the 16th century and it's totally free! Currently almost 200 thousand soldiers have joined sultanate over the last century, and it's one of the most impressive empire, in its Sipahi with detailed armor, horses and smooth Kilij that decapitate 100 Hussars and landsknecht per month! All the army in the empire can be customized with unique gear that changes your armor buffs and firearms! The Incest Habsburgs have some ridiculous skills of their own and figuring out the perfect party and strategy to take Vienna is a lot of fun! Currently with over 15,000,000 subjects, the ottoman empire has almost a perfect score on the Balkans! The empire is growing fast and the highly anticipated war in the indian ocean feature is now live, you might even find my squad out there in Hindustan! It's easier to start now than ever with rates program for new soldiers. You get a new daily akce reward for the first 90 days that you join the empire! So what are you waiting for?

@@suadali8027 bruh Somalia didn't exist before 1960 this is a literal fact and harar has been a part of Ethiopia even before Britain and Italy came to the horn if africa
Thanks for covering this! Always great to see events covered that get less attention in the West.
Great video as always on an interesting and not widely known topic of history.
Ottomans: Waka Waka Its time for Africa.
@Your Majesty, Shakira? I read it in the voice of Fozzie Bear.
Wakanda shit is this?
Hahahahahaha
Portuguese: Africa? Hold my beer
Portugal saved Ethiopia from islam!
Slowly but surely,
Frankly Not forgotten,
Finally African history is here💞💞.
If you love Africa, you must throw away the Arabic name
@@barringtonedwards2166 😁😁😁okay now call me Lulu.
@Carcantos Cartinho I don't know about you, but I'd rather learn about the black american leaders and their impact on the wider civil rights movement than have to memorize the names of the old-ass monarchs of 1500's Europe and Britain for the fourth time.
@@mandinka_language_and_proverbs greetings brother Lulu
@@TheSkammander black American history is boring af. African history more interesting lol. Abyssinia is definitely an badass empire.
Thank you kings and generals for this spesial vidio. Proxey wars and coloneal wars vidio are ossam.I didnt know Ottomans fought in Etiopia. Thanks for very imformative vidio.

Ottoman: Do we already fought in the horn?
Portuguese: I think not, deploying.
Great video again nice.
I think this video was a good one. I just hope you people make your next video on the Imjin War. Because that is something I've been patiently waiting for for months. My compliments to all those who made this video a reality.
Excellent map design and narration as always👍
Hi, great video! If you could in the near future make a video of Afonso de Albuquerque’s conquests. What he achieved in the Indian ocean is truly unbeliavable! Keep up with the excellent work!
He failed in capturing the Somali coast though as he was constantly defeated by the Ajuran empire
Ottomans: Blocks access to china trade.
Portugal: It's uno reverse card
Portugal: Attempts to take Mogadishu and Hobyo
Ajuuraan Sultanate: *hold my lion warriors*
@@cxarhomell5867 a juuraan sultanate trying to be a powerfull empire, Portugal: fun joke
@@naze2659 Portugal: Tries to attack Mogadishu and other Somali Cities
Ajuuraan Sultanate: *not so fast, buster!*
Very good work. We would like you to post more about the ancient and recent history of the Horn of Africa. And thank you for this video.
I love that you guys will share different accounts of battles, but you make the very clear distinction about what is likely fact and what is fiction. Superb story telling.
This channel is literally the best!!! So creative with educating people with rich history. I wish these guys the best and that they keep going!!! Best thing about history, there's so much of it
wish my teachers could have had visuals and a British voice to keep me awake when I studied history in high school
@Don't be evil, They said like what?

@@porkchop2325 So that's why they fight for spices XD
Its under siege from tigray separatists now.where are the Portuguese?😂
I love your co moment thank you and keep up the good work.
Now this is marvellous
The moment when the few remaining Portuguese trained the Ethiopians with using the musket reminded me of the film "last samurai", where the Japanese were trained with using modern firing equipment.
Guess what, the portuguese are credited with the introduction of firearms "arquebus or Tanegashima" to Japan in 1543 absolutely altering the course of Japanese history, it was during the Sengoku period that Samurai based warfare declined with the increasing deployment of large numbers of Ashigaru in battle not exactly in the Meiji restoration period as shown in the movie, still it's a great Tom Cruise performance don´t get me wrong even tho misleading about history.from 🇵🇹
@@brunopimenta8204 the Japanese kicked most westerners and banned firearms when the Sengoku period ended and went back to sword fighting. The Last Samurai is mostly accurate, as far as Hollywood movies go.
The Last samurai... That movie where the north americans introduce firearms in japan and helped in unification off all japan like 200 years before exist north america?
@@gustavomatias2089 this movie takes place in the 19th century.
Well,...if I remember well, the chronicles over here in Portugal doesn't say quite that (the ~50 remaining training their allies in the use of the musket) otherwise this would make a lot of sense right when they landed from the Armada heading to the Red Sea. Indeed there was a big cache of material, some heavy, that had been buried because it was not feasible to move it around, and in some extent the training could have happened but it doesn't look to have been written by the writer which accompanied the expedition. What it is written is that a complete change of tactics took place for the final engagement with the Portuguese contingent taking care (aim) solely against the Ottomans while the Ethiopian Cavalry and other forces doing as much as possible to cover them. Eventually one good aimed shot made the difference.
It is also not commented that the Ethiopian Royalty weren't impressed at first with the number or ability of the Portuguese that came in their help. Cristovão da Gama was aware of that and in one of the early skirmishes when the Ethiopian allies advised to simply go around an enemy high ground stronghold they classified as too difficult to take, he took a chance to single handed with his men take it out without help of their allies. The description of the events is interesting. For some days the Portuguese would probe the walls with small groups. On a safe distance, hidden, the Artillery commanders were observing where the reaction was showing in the walls and doing their maths. When finally the day of the assault come, they divided the group and storm the fort from 3(?) sides. Already knowing where the defenders would gather, the artillery showed up and fired simultaneously for the 1st time with repeated precise hits, creating havoc in the structure & defences. Casualties among the Portuguese were very low. At the distance it is said the Royalty was witnessing the events astonished and from that point onwards they would comply with whatever the course of action the Portuguese suggest.
Amazing! Ethiopia's history is so deep, biblical, mythical, and still a big part of their culture. Would love to see more of your presentations on their stories, ie their 3000+ year old Solomonic Dynasty, etc!
A great video as always
Great video, as always. The comments are great too, very funny, many laughs.
