Either I'm an idiot, or this Albanian dude is seriously underrated.Connect with me on social media!Instagram: historyhouseproductionsTwitter: HistoryHouseProductionsDiscord: discordapp.com/invite/GygvreSFootnotes1:21 Skanderbeg is technically the Albanian version of Iskanderbey, but there are enough linguistic oddities in the translation that some misinterpretation seemed to have occurred.3:48 To add some context to the whole killing Muslims thing, it’s important to note that this was probably politically, rather than religiously motivated. Many Albanians had converted to Islam in order to gain political positions under the Ottomans, so by refusing to convert back to Christianity, you were essentially declaring your support for the old regime.6:26 I should mention that when I say numbers like 100,000, I’m just referring to the numbers my sources say. I’m personally skeptical of such big figures. Medieval chroniclers would see like 5 dudes on horses and write some bs like “the enemy was as numerous as the stars.” So, yeah. The Ottoman army was big, but was it 100,000 men big? EhHhhHhhhHHH….8:52 Hamsa did get his head cut off, but not by Skanderbeg. Skanderbeg actually forgave Hamsa and sent him back to Constantinople as a spy, but then Mehmed II was like “Hey, I know that guy!” and he got executed.Sources:Brackob, A. K.

Click here to learn more: bit.ly/3bJmTC9al-Hakim bi Amr Allah: Caliph of the Fatimid Caliphate, killer of dogs, lover of stars, and all-around weird guy. Let's take a closer look shall we?Big thanks to Sir Flemeington from Discord for the video idea!Support this channel on Patreon: patreon.com/historyhouseproductionsSome additional context I couldn't fit in the video:- al-Hakim's mother was most likely a Greek slave. This is heavily disputed by the Ismaili Shia and Druze though, who claim that she was an Arab princess.- It is entirely possible that al-Hakim destroyed churches not because he personally hated Christians, but because he viewed it as an easy thing to do for political clout. People were wary about his relationship with Christians, so he could gain popularity by at least superficially appearing to persecute them.- Another possible reason for his destruction of churches is that he may have simply been relocating them. In order to prevent religious violence, al-Hakim physically separated the Muslims and non-Muslims in Cairo and he may have just destroyed the churches that were in the "Muslim section" of the city so that he could move them to the "Christian section." This doesn't explain why he destroyed the church of the Holy Sepulture though.- Contemporary sources written by Jews appear to express admiration for him.- Although he passed a bunch of wacky laws against women, he freed all of his female slaves and was apparently kind to his wife.- It is heavily theorized that his sister arranged for his murder, but his body was never found, so we're just not sure.Sources:Assaad, Sadek Ismail. “The Reign of Al-Hakim Bi Amr Allah: A Political Study.” University of London, Proquest, 2017, pp. 26–157.
