🚩 Today we have the Battle of Tolbiac, which took place in Gaul during/after the collapse of the last fragments of the Western Roman Empire. Despite being fought in AD 496 (or 506, depending on who you ask) it marked the beginning of what would one day become modern France.

    🚩 Sources for this one are quite scarce, so it was a bit tricky piecing it together. I hope you'll enjoy the show! Today we have the Battle of Tolbiac, which took place in Gaul during/after the collapse of the last fragments of the Western Roman Empire. Despite being fought in AD 496 (or 506, depending on who you ask) it marked the beginning of what would one day become modern France.

    Awesome video! I wanted to name my youngest son Clovis, but my wife objected strongly. I showed her every second of this video. Pretty sure if it was around seven years ago, I would have won that battle.

    In Footnote 2, are you saying that one of Clovis's sons has the exact same name as his daughter (Clotaire)? Footnote 3 seems like a jumbled mess.

    That effect, when you showed migration of Alemani tribe in app13:30 is great, it show nice data about history. If you could make this about Slavs (I am Czech so mainly about this branch), it would be great!:-)
