Ironicaly, the Hungarian king Béla IV shared Berengars fate when a westernized Kingdom of Hungary faced the Mongol invasion in the battle of Muhi, 1241.
Anor Naur King Béla learned from this however and made military reforms which allowed Hungary to repel the second invasion in 1285
It's pronounced Moh/hi.
Not that by staying nomads will be any help. The Mongols slaughtered other nomadic armies with equal ease.
To deal with the Mongols all you need is time. Just fortify everything including villages.
@@yulusleonard985 The mongols eventually became masters of siege warfare as well.
I read the year 899, and I have no idea what the setting is. This channel is a blessing
I don't understand your comment.

Me too buddy

@@dawn-blade I think you just have poor reading comprehension
The little boats distracted me for a while cause I thought they'd come into play soon, but they didn't. They're just merchant traders lol.
Yeah me2 I thought the Hungarians were bringing reinforcements to flank the Italians and these talks were just a delaying tactic
I kinda missed the overview after the battle with how strength of army and losses.
Me too
Well we got the strength of the armies beforehand, and I guess they don't have reliable sources for the losses.
Italian losses: too many to count
Magyar losses: not enough to bother
According to the Lombard historian Liutprand of Cremona, before the battle the Italians had 15 000 soldiers and the Hungarians 5000. he writes that in the battle the majority of the Italians were annihilated.
After the battle, the Hungarians even attacked Venice, binding together leather bags filled with air, around their horses, and swimming like this near the town, which came out with its fleet to chase them away. This was maybe one of the most peculiar naval battle of the history.

Probably because no one really knows

Severna Snaga You’re right I got confused because kings and generals came out with a video the other day 😁
Now we got to wait another month, because he did a double weekend last month too.
Damm this voiceover is so good! It rivals anything on tv.
Oh yeah. History channel should be jealous of his content, seriously.
Yes, tbh I prefer this voice actor than the one with kings and Generals channel.
/bows humbly
I'm not from English speaking country but his voice is really easy to listen and I can understand what he says clearly.
He’s really not
I wish these videos existed back when I was a kid
Blame government standardization of education. Someone "smarter" than you decided that it's not important for you to know history
Nice video! I would just like to point out that the Magyars had formed a so-called 'Steppe State' and had supra-tribal offices. All our contemporary sources as well as the archaeology shows clearly that this was the case. They always prepared their attacks diplomatically and there are sources on their alliance with Arnulf. Before that, they had allied with Byzantium (893/4) the Moravians (880) and the Franks against the Moravians. They were very pragmatic with their alliances, and probably would never have launched major campaigns had not the East Franks tried to eradicate them in 907. Cheers!
Are you feeling okay? Two videos two days apart from eachother? I'm not complaining.
Two videos, two days apart because they're not gay

How beautiful to hear about the history of my lands on this beautiful channel!
I have barely heard any of these battles, but all of them are bloody and important in their own way
Great video! I think this was the first major battle in Western Europe where the Magyars showed their teeth. I hope you'll do a video on the Battle of Pressburg, 907, where they ultimately cemented their intention that they were here to stay.
What teeth you idiot? What about the vikings just 5-15 years before...? Must be a deal with them .. they have never stepped in Hungary for a reason... Fear or deal or alliance... I had a DNA test I am more viking than sekler ... I bet you do not know who are the seklers?! Isn't it? 🤦🙈🙊🙉

Arnulf was actually allied to the Bulgarian Empire at the time. Just thought I'd mention it.
And we would love to see a video regarding the Bulgarian Empire
@@ivanborisov3974
Indeed. Heard so much about it, but know so little. Time to wise up. Come on BazBattles, you can do it!
Arnulf came from Carantania that was medieval Slovenia.
@@norten76 Bulgarian history is one of the most underrated in the world. If I start talking about great victories achieved by us, I'd need a whole day.
You are very underated youtuber
I live in Italy, in the city of Padua near the river Brenta. Not that it matters, but it's kinda cool to see the place where I live featured in one of your videos :D Here, a lot of cool battles where fought also during the XIII-XIV century
Holy shit, nobody ever covers Northern Italian warfare or politics of the 9th century. Thank you!
Also:
Berengar: "Ahhhh! I've finally secured the Lambordy crown and my most powerful rivals are both getting harassed by vikings while I sit comfortably to the south free of raiders! Life is good!"
Magyar: "Izat so?"

HRE didn´t really exist back then technically
Thanks for the video again, if you kept pumping out these videos at the same rate, I think you’d get some much deserved attention from more people.
I’d also like to post another suggestion one last time, about the Rus battles during the 1060’s-1080’s, they’d make an extremely interesting episode, like with the Bug River video.
The Kievan Rus’ was always divided, and in many ways. While Vladimir the Great did convert the lands of the Rus to Christianity, there were still many pagans, especially in the recently conquered lands such as Polotsk.
The lands were also often rebellious, as it was shown in this video. Novgorod was acquired after a bloody war, the Cumans and Pechenegs often migrated into the southern lands, taking them, and Polotsk was conquered over an insult and a refusal to marriage. This made tensions high.
There was also the many disputes between brothers, as shown here.
Prince Bryacheslav had attempted to conquer Novgorod, and gain independence from the Rus, but was stopped by Yaroslav in 1020 and defeated decisively at the Sudoma River. A peace treaty was signed, but Bryacheslav and Yaroslav still constantly acted hostile to each other.
During this time, a bad system had been implemented which caused problems. The ‘rota system’ was a system of seniority, where the oldest member of the dynasty inherits, instead of regular succession from father to son. Familicide became common, as brothers fought for power.
One of the greatest struggles occurred after the death of Yaroslav the Wise. Soon after Iziaslav was crowned, the rebellious and powerful Prince of Polotsk, Vseslav the Seer, challenged the throne. This culminated into an epic battle at the Nemiga river, the details of which have been lost to time. The three sons of Yaroslav, who were Iziaslav, Vsevolod and Svetoslav, put aside their differences to challenge this powerful Prince, and probably outnumbered him. On their way, they burned Minsk, then held by Polotsk (as that was the first reference to Minsk we know of, it is celebrated as the founding date of the city), and moved up to challenge him in 1067.
We know little of the course of the battle, but what we do know is that it ended as a bloodbath, with ‘The Tale of Igor’s Campaign’ describing “The bloody banks of the Nemiga being sown with not blessings, but with bones”.
Vseslav fled back to Polotsk, but the Princes did not follow him, likely due to their losses. In June of that year, the brothers met, swearing upon the cross to not harm each other again, as Vseslav was imprisoned in Kiev for a while.
This was not the end.
The Triumvirate between the three brothers slowly broke apart, as Izyaslav, who was not strong enough to deal with all of this by himself but tried his best was showing his weaknesses, Svetoslav, who was described as a ‘new Ptolemy’ and a scholar was shown as a good commander and Vsevolod, who proved in ways that he was brilliant in diplomacy, wanted more power.
In 1061, the Cumans attacked and raided into the Rus, defeating Vsevolod. They continued to attack the Rus for 7 more years before anything was done, as the Triumvirate attacked the Cumans and failed.
However, while this military disgrace did prove that the Cumans were truly a threat, Svetoslav was able to defeat a Cuman force of 12,000 with 3,000 men in the battle of the river Snov in November 1, 1068.
The battle began, with Svetoslav making a speech, saying to his men, “Потягнем, уже нам не лзе камо ся дети!”. I don’t speak old Slavic/old Russian, but StKozlovsky translated it. It means ‘Let’s win this, we have nowhere to hide anymore.’
The Russian army attacked, and was caught in bloody fighting with the larger Cuman force. A decisive charge by the Russian heavy cavalry dispersed the Cumans, who quickly after lost the battle.
This elevated the prestige of Svetoslav, who became popular for ending the massive Cuman threat- after the battle, the Cumans left the Rus, and signed a peace treaty with the Rus, with minor raids being the only problem they caused for decades.
However, the battle at the river Snov was too late of a victory. In 1068, while Svetoslav was marching to fight the Cumans, the people of Kiev demanded that Iziaslyav, the grand prince of the Rus, muster a new army and attack them, after a Veche, or assembly in the marketplace of the city. When this was refused, the revolt began.
The people, blaming Iziaslav’s general Konstantin for the defeat, marched to his house and ransacked him. Then, they kicked Iziaslav from the throne, freeing the Polotskian Prince Vseslav and proclaiming him the leader of the Kievan Rus. Vseslav also quickly secured the support of the many pagans in the Rus by supporting them.
Iziaslav fled to Poland, to Bolysław II, known as the Bold, the Cruel and the Generous, who gave him arms and weapons to forcefully take back the throne. After several years of struggle, while losing the title of Grand Prince of the Rus, he regained his title as Prince of Polotsk and spent many more years on the throne- he is often known as a sorcerer due to this fact, along with his support of Pagans.
After all of this drama, the Triumvirate was practically restored.
Iziaslav continued reigning, but then, in 1073, another power struggle occurred.
According to the Russian Chronicles, ‘the devil stirred up strife’ between the brothers.
On the 22nd of March, 1073, Svetoslav and Vsevolod deposed Iziaslav, proclaiming Svetoslav as the new leader of the Rus.
According to a chronicle, this happened because Svetoslav was corrupted with the need for more power, and he misled Vsevolod into thinking that Iziaslav had tried to enter into an alliance with Vseslav against them two.
Either way, Svetoslav was now the ruler.
Iziaslav fled once more to Poland, which he was expelled from as Svetoslav was the son-in-law of Bolesław II. He then appealed to Henry IV of the Holy Roman Empire, who tried to help but later gave up.
The Pope later sent Iziaslav a crown, proclaiming him the ‘King of Kiev’ in 1075, and he took back Kiev.
Svetoslav soon died in 1077, due to the ‘cutting of a sore’.
One of the sons of Svetoslav, Oleg Svetoslavich and the son of a prince of Smolensk, Boris Vyacheslavich, tried to conquer the lands of Vsevolod in Chernigov, which Svetoslav gave him after helping him become leader of the Rus. Oleg also allied with the Cumans, but Iziaslav and Vsevolod defeated Oleg, Boris and the Cumans. However, Iziaslav perished in this battle.
After the other two sons had died, Vsevolod took the throne, uniting the three princedoms that had formed a Triumvirate many years ago. However, his rule was not too good- the Russian Primary chronicle writes that “people no longer had access to the Prince’s justice, judges became corrupt and venal”, and Vsevolod listened to the advice of young councilors instead of old and experienced retainers.
According to his son’s autobiography, Vsevolod spoke five foreign languages, which were likely Greek, Cuman, Latin, Norse and Ossetian.
His son, Vladimir Monomakh, who became a famed great warrior, did most of the fighting for his father, as his father had a horrible reputation in battles.
His last few years were filled with grave illness, during which his son did most of the governing.
The channel will grow for sure. It's a bit niche, but the videos are of good quality and well documented.
Those crafty Magyars! ;)
@BazBattles I've been watching your videos for a very long time but this is my first time writing. I just want you to know how amazing your videos are. They are the highlight of my day when ever I log into youtube and see a new video from you guys. Keep being awesome!

My grandma used to live near river Brenta. Now it’s time she knows where she was standing.
What I'm learning here is that if there are lightly armored horsemen making your life difficult in Eastern and Southern Europe then chances are they came somewhere from the steppe. The Huns, the Magyar, and of course the Mongols (who for once are NOT the exception.)
dont forget the Avars and Alans
@@RaidenWard And Kipchaks and Kumans
Actually, the hungarians are fino-ugric and they also come from south siberia (and -south- central asia).
I feel I must give a mention to the Scythians. Horse Archers that spanned centuries. From fighting for Alexander the Great to checking the Mongols over a thousand years later
@@TheChimples and the Scythians and Cimmerians
funny thing is they are iranic but were still steppe nomads.

The videos just keep coming. I love it.
By the way. Do not forget to take a rest. You deserve it. :)
Love Baz Battles !! Always liked battle maps , which are pretty much essential to understanding battles....a picture is worth 1,000 words , etc.....but many books only had few maps if any .(dating myself here , lol). Soooo, moving maps showing progression , accurate terrain , well researched and expertly narrated , are a dream come true for this military history buff !! Also , Ancient and Medieval are my favorite areas of study ...so that's superdoubletriple badass .
Seriously , thank you so very much from USA !
A significant number of these medieval battles would more properly be called massacres. Not complaining, I still love Baz's videos. Keep 'em coming!
Had a rough day. Had to flee out of my house because of my violent dad and toxic mother who direct the anger they have against each other at their autistic son. Currently tryin to sleep on my grandmas sofa. This is the first thing today that really made me happy. Thanks BazBattles for your awesome content.
New baz battles video? Today is a good day.
Not a Byzantine video though.
Youur vids are amazing. Take your time. Keep going. Love them vids🤗🤗
Ever since I was a kind I wished for access to information like this, so you are literally making one of my dreams come true. It's a shame to think that without you all these interesting stories would basically go untold. I really like the combination of quality and that you forgo trying to make them about yourself with some attempt at a cult of celebrity.
The downside is that eventually you will run out of battles for which there is a good account. Without a cult of celebrity it will be hard to maintain viewership without some kind of pivot. You already focus on the politics which precede battles, so maybe you could eventually focus more on that side. Like a historical version of the Caspian Report? Even if there aren't good accounts, I think your reputation for history and quality could facilitate some guessing on your side as long as you were up front about it.
Sorry for the unsolicited advice and you're currently my favorite youtuber!
Thanks for your comment Ryan. Don't worry, there are still hundreds of battles waiting to be covered, and many times more interesting (related) stuff.

Nothing better to start a day with, than this video. BTW a river crossing like this one with Brenta was a serious task for wester european armys but a daily thing for nomad warriors (huns, magyars, mongols).

Not only did they use western tactics, they also managed to capture and kill the first conquistador. On top of that it stopped the advance of the Empire which led to a 300 year war that neither side won.
You should break down some modern battles.
Ie Desert Storm.
I find the way you break stuff down extremely interesting and engaging
LOL Hungarians looking for some SeaHorses so they could plunder even in the seas. Magyars became my top 1 horse nomads after this
After the battle of Brenta, when returning home, they actually attacked Venice on the sea, by binding leather bags on their horses. Venice sent its war fleet to chase them away. Check out the Wikipedia article about the battle. So the Hungarian horsemen were good even in naval warfare.

Lombarts or Italians were not the first to battle and expiriens the Magyars and the magyar stile of warfire , the Bulgarians were whit Boris the I and his son Simeon I the Great (latter know as Tzar Simeon I the Great of the first Bulgarian empire) and manage to defeat them. After the battle the Magyars were forced to settle in hungarian plain.
Sorry for my bad english.
Do not forget the Pechenegs who helped you, attacking the Hungarians from behind... Before the Pechenegs arrived the Hungarians defeated the Bulgarians in three consecutive battles.
And we were not forced to settle here! This was our home all along! :D
Constant raids from the Hungarians can be dated from around 860, they always acted upon an invitation of one or more European leaders trying to strengthen their positions by the Hungarian allies. The Hungarians (in their own language: Magyars) were so alike the Huns known in Europe before that everyone called the newly appearing power the Huns (in one of the chronicles: the Huns that we nowadays know as the Magyars), that's why it is not a surprise that Hungarians known today as Hungarians...
Just to add a little more background for the the Magyars for those unfamiliar with them: The Byzantine Empire was fighting the Bulgarian Empire. The Byzantines brought the Magyars to harass the Bulgarians. Though that backfired because the Bulgarians hired the Pechenegues to attack the Magyars. The Magyars were forced to move to the Pannonia plains
Just a request. But do you think you might be able to do "The Battle of Kulikovo"?
Although they were very long, could you do videos about battles in the 1. and 2. WW ?(Stalingrad, D-Day/Omaha Beach, Verdun, Somé etc.)

great serie of vídeos. would be great if the battles could be like in the games, i m not complainig. it´s great as it is.
The triple upload..this really do be a bruh momeny
At 5:20 why didn't Berengar go through Padua on the paved road and surprise the Magyars from behind instead of following them through the unpaved terrain from where the Magyars went? (I'm assuming the reason Magyars didn't take the road was to avoid Padua's garrison and having to go around the city)
