    I'm a busy Dad and have only been watching this about 15 min at a time inconsecutively (only when there is peace and quiet because i genuinely dont want to miss any detail) and just wanted say... Thank you. This is a work of art and a magnificent transcription of the past. The Hundred Years War(s) is an obsession I didn't know I had until now. You all did an excellent job. In your statistics, if you see many people watching a bit and stopping, just know that many of us can't commit 3.5 hours to anything other than our families and (our) work. We appreciate your content all the same; perhaps more so Thank you.
  • @JawsOfHistory
    I really can't fathom what it's like to be at war for 116 years years. Even the fact that they only called it the hundred years' war because no one was alive anymore who remembered a time before it started is just difficult to wrap your brain around.
  • @lmao7177
    Im not sure you guys know how much of a blessing your channel is to the youtube, history enthusiast and in general every history lover.
  • @vitorpereira9515
    The French victory in the 100 Years' War can be explained by two quote from Napoleon. "You must not fight too often with one enemy or you will teach him all your art of war." "God favours the side with the best artillery" — Napoleon Bonaparte
  • @AFROJOE2323
    I love this channel. It's literally the best history channel on yt and elsewhere. Literally every relationship and battle is broken down in such an exciting way
  • @CommonSwindler
    I wish Louis XI got a full video on his genius statecraft after the Hundred Years’ War. He is criminally underrated.
  • @MacDonald1989
    Yeah boiiiiii! Give me another 3+ hour video!!! Keep up the phenomenal work, K&G.

    Funny how Fance and England ended up in opposite positions at the end of the Hundred Year's war. In the 1330s, France was plagued by civil war, a weak monarchy, very strong and powerful nobles, and generally weak and divided. This gave a more centralized, stronger, and powerful English monarchy an opportunity to gather their forces and invade, cultimating in Agincourt in 1415. By the end of the war, it was England that had the weak monarch, had a civil war brewing, a series of battle hardened nobles who won glory in France with enough titles and land to challenge the king, plus they were broke from the oh I don't know, half a dozen invasions of France they had done. But France became a more centralized monarchy, with a standing army, the nobility was subbordinate to the crown, and the experiences of over a century of war made them extremely determined. The main difference is the French never made claims to the English crown, and they never tried to invade England during the War of the Roses. They were too exhausted in both willpower and resources to mount such a campaign. That being said, other than the 1640s, the 1450s was probably the best opportunity in France's history to invade and take over England. They had no real navy, a divided nation, and were weak and humiliated by war. I'm very happy that England (UK now) and France are buddies and they put aside all those centuries of war.
  • Whoever was in charge of putting in the music has an excellent taste in video games! :D EU IV, Civ 5 and I think... Civ 6 as well? Really great!
  • @TheYannir
    I heard that Edward the 1st's law of every village being required to train longbowmen for the English army is still technically in effect, if not in practice.
  • @Jhonnyoliv
    France was the first State that recognized science and technology as another key factor for his sovereignty, besides the professionalization of the army. Developing better metal alloys and improvement on the production techniques and high quality gunpowder as well, research and development never was neglected again by powerfull nations
  • @ammarsaleh4335
    You can talk about a topic that no one has ever dealt with before, which is the Yemeni kingdoms and the history of their wars and invasions, which is Sheba, Hadhramaut, Maeen Qataban, and Osan. I hope you look at this history well. Thank you. I was truly pleased to watch the leaders and kings on your channel.
  • @Alpha___00
    Love those epics. I usually watch them separately, but there is something in many-hours dedicated videos.
  • @giants2k8
    Edward III was the greatest British Warrior King. Such a shame what happened to the Black Prince. Imagine if he reigned as Edward IV instead of his son Richard II. How different history would’ve been. We would never have seen Henry V win his famed victory at Agincourt.
  • @winowmak3r
    I love the long form content guys. Keep it up! I like listening to podcasts and documentaries while I paint and this format is perfect! And as always, the dedication and attention to detail is appreciated!
