The Battle of Lechfeld, 955 AD Magyar Horde Defeated by United Germanic Forces
Manage episode 434789126 series 3591999
The crushing defeat of the Magyars marked the end of over 90 years of terror that had haunted Western Europe. The survivors, their dreams of conquest shattered and their ferocity tamed, abandoned their nomadic ways. In the ashes of their once-feared horde, they forged a new destiny, planting the seeds that would grow into the nation of Hungary.
Lechfeld. 9 August, 955 AD.
Germanic Forces: ~ 10,000 Bavarian, Franconian, Saxon, Swabian, and Bohemian men.
Magyar Forces: ~ 50,000 Warriors.
Additional Reading and Research:
- Markov, Walter. Battles of World History.
- Vambery, Arminius. Hungary in Ancient, Medieval, and Modern Times.
- Balasz, Gyorgy. The Magyars: The Birth of a European Nation.
Note from Themistocles, the Narrator: I attempt to use native pronunciation to my best abilities. I apologize in advance for all mispronunciations in all episodes.
