Second of three videos that detail the complex final year of Philip's life. This is my take on the complicated mess.

In this second video, I detail Philip's final months, the whole mess with Pausanias (his actual killer), and the assassination itself. So this is the "what happened" video (and a little of why). In the final video, we'll detail the various suspects and why this or that person might be more or less likely to be guilty.

At 10:11, I accidentally called the elder Pausanias the younger Pausanias (the boy who died). This matters largely as all of this is confusing enough. But yes, just for clarity, Philip punished the older boy, obviously not the one already dead.
