- Watch my latest history documentary here:- https://youtu.be/c3Hq6UaFQqk Hey guys, thanks for stopping by. Thought i'd release this little video I've been working on.. I'd like to eventually tell the entire story of the Normans. From Rollo to the 13th Century. It's going to take a long time, but its an incredible story. What other history would you like to see retold? Let me know in the comments, and don't forget to like and subscribe if you enjoyed what you saw.!

History is so much more entertaining than most movies and TV.
-
In Normandy, some people bear the surname Ledanois which means The Danish.

We have a stone here in Denmark called " The Rollo stone. If you swing by, you can find it at the town hall in Faxe 🇩🇰
-
Just the name "Normandy" for me implies power and a very hardy people. Your videos are getting better and better.
-
amazing work man. you achieve that perfect mix of clearly voiced information and relevant visuals that so many other channels just cant quite balance. keep up the goof work.
-
Amazing, just amazing, bravo. You make the finest documentaries and put in emmersive backround music. Absolute class, I salute you.

I am going to have to watch this again when I am more sober, as a history buff this is brilliant
-
Fascinating stuff. Thank you for a bit of history I had never read about. Look forward to more.
-
I study history and ur Docs. Are more acurate and entertaining than anything off discovery channel. Thank you for your efforts....
-
William the Conqueror was the great grandson of Rollo. After 1066, the English monarchy was never English again. The Plantagenet dynasty.
-
I appreciate the detailed story. I have a new interest in France, personally. I find the history is so complex, diverse, and far-reaching. It is good to get more detail, here of Normandy. I bet any region of France could be a good subject. And the story of commerce/trade, across the ages, would be a good one. Consider all these different regions - of France, of Europe... - each with its own crafts and foods. The story of trade would be a relief from all the histories of rulership too.
-
I love ancient history. Thank you for these.
-
I love your videos, they’re super interesting and the content is absolutely awesome. Thank you for all your work :)
-

I am from the north of Germany and I like your very detailed videos. It's not easy to understand for me but on the other hand a great way to improve my English👍✌Please go on
-
WOW ! Outstanding research, narration, graphics and soundtrack.... an all around top quality documentary. Brilliant work... MORE PLEASE !

This video is amazing. It's the most accurate explanation of the Norman origins I've ever seen. The DNA record of my family surname, Rolland and all it's variant spellings, shows a link to these exact regions of Rollo's conquests. Please keep making videos my friend.
