The "Forgotten" Kingdom of Germany (illustrated History)

HAPPY NEW YEAR! (i forgot to tell you that) First Video of the Year and it's about Germa Boi. I’m back with another vid, this time it’s about the “Forgotten”( more like overlooked) Kingdom of Germany, Took a bit longer due to the Internship (and also I’m bad at paying attention to one thing). Anyway I wanted to make this to bring to peoples attention the “transitional period” between Charlemagne and the Formation of the “Holy Roman Empire”. When West Francia slowly evolved into the Kingdom of France and East Francia into the HRE. If I’ve made a mistake feel free to tell me in the comments (I mean that’s what they’re there for)

I've seen countryballs, I've seen countryhumans, I've seen country-humans, and now we've reached the endgame.

As a hungarian, I genuinely find your depiction of "magyars" ingenious and funny as hell. :D You get a free pass to meme the shit out of our history.

I never knew I wanted history explained in such a manner with such elaborate images until this very moment. And now I don't know how I lived without it.

I really love that you have your rulers talk to their countries/kingdoms like they're teenagers. "Come on, talk to the Byzantine Empire, you guys can be friends!"

It's worth noting that, every time a German king tried to assert his power on Italy, the German nobles instantly revolted... but so did the Italian communes too. In short, it was a very fast fasttrack to fighting literally everyone in the Empire.

I love the goofy looking people drawn alongside the actual countries, theyre adorable. Also likin' the educational value in all this.

Babe wake up, new Yuric video dropped!

Forgotten by everyone but crusader kings players

0:28 I thought I hear "Milf Francia"💀

so youre telling me that the HRE at the beginning really was an Empire but when it started to become that Cartographical nightmare it became less of a Empire and more of an complicated alliance?

The amount of effort put into this is outstanding man, Nice job!

The 9th, 10th and 11th centuries are some of the most interesting times in European history and history at large; the Carolingian game of thrones alone is material enough for many different videos. For a future mini-documentary, have you considered looking into the Five Dynasties, Ten Kingdoms period? (a.k.a. the 60 years of transitory period between the Tang and Song dynasty)

Every time, your production value gets better and better!

"Oh, i`m sorry. I can`t hear you" takes out a gun Now can u hear me?" "Yes, sorry"

I'm loving these so much, i wish we were taught in schools like that. Please, never stop making them, i beg you.

1:32 To be fair trying getting elections done in the past was an pain in the ass. They could barely assemble the Elector Counts to vote, sometimes months of waiting for them to assemble and then the arguing and debating on who gets the crown. Now imagine that but for everyone and 90% cant read or write. While also most likely getting bribed or forced to vote for their lord under the threat of "oh we will just let you deal with the bandits by yourself then lol".

A while ago I became interested in the history of Germany in the past. But I couldn't find more past than the Holy Roman Empire history, I had to watch since the fall of the Western Roman Empire passing through Charlemagne and the partition of the Carolingian Empire. At least I ended up finding the information

"Oh I'm sorry, I can't hear you over this GIANT mountain range." Germany has sass...and I love it.

I should probably make a section in my videos where I adress all the mistakes I've made in the previous one
