🚩 The Battle of Roncevaux Pass was the culmination of Charlemagne's campaign of 778 AD into the Iberian Peninsula, the only time he crossed the Pyrenees Mountains in person, in an attempt to create a buffer zone between the Frankish Kingdom and the Emirate of Cordoba.
Iberia the land of guerilla fighting and with the perfect terrain for it, but let´s march my streched army through a narrow pass.
You have much better quality than Kings&Generals channel. The narration, historical facts, the illustration, everything is much better.
look the size of frankish army 😲😱😨
Ah, ck2 Umayyad trampled the shit out of those revolting emirates, and their ally Charlemagne. Good times.
Charlemagne: Is invading Spain
Me: Having Sertorian War flashbacks
Narrow mountain passes, slow baggage trains, and an unhappy local population is a dangerous combination, as Charlemagne discovered. It's ironic that he angered the populace by tearing down Pamplona's fortress walls when he intended to pacify them with this action. Great video. I had never heard about this battle before and I learned a great deal.
