A very good representation of the battle of Adrianople, one of the decisive battles in history. We have prehistory, development, suspence, geography, everything that could be demanded. I also think that Kaloyan first offered peace to the Baldwin but the latter refused him because he thought that Asen brothers had been rebels and their land was Byzantine – i.e. Latin – by legal right. It was stupid and contrary to the advices of Innocent III who had just given Kaloyan king's crown recognising him as a legitimate ruler. So, we can see something like a divine judgement in this case…
My heart breaks as a latin when I think at the 4th crusade and the evil we did… God have mercy on us
Kaloyan is the name Byzantines called him. His name was Yoan. He was tall and attractive man.
Kaloyan meant the handsome Yoan.

Roman slayer. Please. Then why did the Bulgarians get their asses kicked by the Turks?
Amazing this happened in the Middle of the Crusader years 1095-1295, Byzantines suffered more than the Moslems from the Crusades.
Long life of the Vlachs!
