Catastrophic Crusade against Morocco - Battle of the Three Kings, 1578 (ALL PARTS)
🚩 Sebastian, the king of the ever expanding Portuguese empire, wished to impose Christian rule over Muslim Morocco. He landed in Tangier with 23,000 troops and modern artillery. But the Moroccan forces, though not as well equipped, numbered over 50,000 men. Led by the determined Sultan Abd al-Malik, defeating the the Muslims would present the greatest challenge yet to the Portuguese overseas expansion...

Amazing work! You're the Best! Hearth please ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Is it mistake or you know the ottoman's governer of Algeria was supporting Sultan abdulmalik with his army ?
You said crusader army but who called for the crusade which pope or wasn't it.maroko and Algeria committed one of the biggest crime against humanity for almost 9 centuries they enslaved millions of people from Spain France and Italy up until the 8th century millions suffers so the campaign was not a crusade but self defence. Funny Somalia mahmedans today do the same because it is mentioned in the koran
@@redbeard-le1jo ahahah algerian trolls as always. The saadi dynasty had won wars against the ottomans themselves, so it is not like they depended on them to defeat the portuguese.
@@fhirvhdyg5gjyefhitzaphgbiu748 They did not have single victory against Ottomans. On the contrary, numerically superior Saadi armies were repeatedly slaughtered by the Turks and their capital occupied two time.
Kholat, my tribe participated in this battle because it took place on their lands. They displayed great courage and ferocity against the enemy, which led the Sultan to take half of their horsemen and incorporate them into his army as a reward for their bravery.
It's amazing how dying sultan could personally rally his soldiers in a fierce battle. A true leader, I'd say.
Realistically he prob did die in the fighting but the victors write the history and this is way more inspiring.
@@georgerafa5041 realisticly people should learn to provide evidences for their claim or learn to shut up
Props to Mohammed Al-Sheikh for having not one but 3 incredibly talented sons who all created a realm stronger than they got. That's incredibly rare throughout history
Mohammed Al-Sheikh looks asian
The Janissaries entered his tent without any hesitation, took his head and sent it to Suleiman the Magnificent. They had to bury the Al Sheik without his head. Thats one of the incredibly rare(and bold) move throught history, not headless Al-Shitty
@@Spartan_Disiplin Someone's angry... @hastagrex ignore this man, he is clearly going through something
@@Spartan_Disiplin ofc the traitor ottomans would assassinate him they can't fight him like men on the battlefield average ottocucks iam glad his sons allied themselves to Castile instead of ottotraitors
@@Mr_OogaBooga The ruler he mentioned (Muhammad El Sheikh) was killed by the Turks in his own military camp. The assassins took his head with them and later presented it to Suleiman the Magnificent as gift. That happened in 23 October 1557
The fact that morocco didn't fall to foreign rule between early 16th and 15th century is astonishing, that period knew civil wars and turmoils, and complete unstability.
that could be related to patriotism , there is many stories of resistance against the portuguese and attempts of a reverse reconquista so the peoples were behind one goal that is to kick the iberians out . this battle is scene as the moroccan revenge of the defeat of las navas de tolosa and it had almost same effect. it helped the morrocans virtually kick the iberian presence leaving them entrenched in enclaves that kept falling one after another. until only 2 remained
@@LauftFafa Very interesting. How long until the 2 enclaves are also reclaimed? 😊
@@khaldrago911 well they cant now , last time they tried they almost took both tbut the ottomans attacked from the east so the moroccans were forced to lift the sieges . they were always interupted because morocco was enemy of the ottomans aswel. morocco and spain are allied now and they are both organising the 2030 worldcup so waging war over 2 rocks isnt really productive for either side
It's also because Morocco was between the two biggest superpowers of the time. The king of Morocco at the time (the son of Mohammed Al Sheikh, Al Mansur) knew he couldn't get too close to the Ottomans and not too distant from Castille. So he made it so he can count on one side defending him if the other attacked. Very skillful diplomacy
@@amogusenjoyer in EU4 morocco have a modifier that allow it to have a diplomatic advantage because historically the nation was too flexible diplomatically and thats how it guaranteed its independence and own sphere in the grand sahara and sahel
Sebastian: I don’t do scouting! Also Sebastian: I don’t do supply lines!
I learned about this historic battle when I got curious about how and why Portugal was absorbed by Spain at one point and proceeded to do some research. It led me all the way to this battle, which decisively weakened the royal family and the country of Portugal, triggering succession crisis and civil wars, and ultimately allowing Spain the golden opportunity to exploit the situation and take over Portugal. On the other hand the battle strengthened the Moroccan Saadi regime which then began its, albeit brief, ascent to regional power status. Thanks a lot for bringing this pivotal battle to attention. This battle deserves to be much better known.
morocco will stay a regional power till the 1700s , the strongest moroccan monarch was moulay ismail ( also have Guinness world record for most kids) in his Era morocco's army was around 300k strong 150k of them were regulars following the janissary model and in that period morocco would fight spain and the ottomans successfully . that sultan even did parade once over 40.000 european war captives many of them later joined his christian guard . in his reign morocco became an attraction point to the european Renegades who didnt want to serve the ottomans but still wanted to serve a strong monarch . i believe the city of el sawira in his time period had over 10.000 danish renegades or maybe it was a different coastal city. so yeah the golden age technically should last until the 1720s then they will get a 3rd one around 1770s to 1800 (reason morocco was confident enough to be first to recognize the Usa and be also first to technically declare war on usa before the barbary wars and impose a protection tax on their ships that the americans accepted to pay after losing some 2 or 3 ships . a deal that will stay in vigor ) during the napoleonic era morocco will feel intimidated by the strength of france and this will force the country to become isolated and protective instead of seeking allies and keeping technological improvements and try to be up to date like the ottomans did . in general its a respectable history probably the longest and most glorious of all existing arab countries today.
افتخر بكوني من هذا بلاد العظيم 🇲🇦 الذي حافظ على استقلال بلاده لقرون في فترات كانت بمحيطه به حروب مشتعلة في المنطقة
I’ve never heard about this battle, but the moment I heard the trope “the flower of (insert nation) nobility” I knew who was going to win.
I do wonder why every crusader battle seems to end the same way. Heavy knights charge out, get cut off, and then the entire army gets destroyed. This is in 1578, the printing press was already common in Europe, do these nobles never read history?
@@jenniferkeates I suspect by this time the commoners were starting to question the point of a knight, if it was ineffective on the battlefield. The knights probably were too eager to prove their worth.
@@jenniferkeates well it's usually because there's a surplus of said knights, and only so much land that can be split between nobles sons... so they start coping by dreaming of getting what they deserve
@@amogusenjoyer well it’s the sort of role that would normally regulate itself- especially if that battle was anything to go buy.
The battle of Alcácer-Quibir was a devastating moment in Portugal's history, but it had significant consequences. The victory of Felipe II of Spain allowed him to become king of Portugal, beginning the period of Iberian union. With the Iberian union, the Treaty of Tordesillas was annulled, which made Brazil's territorial expansion possible.
and in morroco's side this last had a momentum after this battle they pushed against the ottomans then they went south to colonize mali who became a moroccan Pashalek sometimes under direct control sometimes as a vasal until the french will arrive in the 19th century . today's Azawads issue can have its routes traced to this some of them even still see the kings of morocco as the spiritual leaders of northern mali
Damn, it just goes from bad to worse.
E trouxe consequências piores ainda pro Brasil, que teve que se contentar com o idioma português.

Now that you mention you yeah LOL thats some foreshadowing, chekov's flower
Morocco is rich and strong nation. Amazing Moroccan culture.
Morocco has a great history with its own empire, they once conquered and ruled Spain and Portugal for centuries 🇲🇦
Spain and portugal was conquered by umayyad caliphate and their army and general was umayyad. there was no such thing called morcco back then. They only ruled lberia for 120 years under 2 dynasties Almoravid and almohad who is their founders born in modern cpunteries mauritania and algeria
Morocco didn’t conquer Spain and Portugal, that was the Umayyad Arabs did.
@@MJ511KW The Umayyads don't have much since the conquest of Spain and Portugal was done with Berber tribes from northern Morocco. The Ummeyads were decimated a few years later by these same tribes. the Arabs have always made sure to erase this large part of history. . Isabelle the Catholic in her will always warned her people to always be vigilant and to always try to prevent the Moroccans from returning. And last thing the first who conquered Spain was a MOROCCAN Berber Tarek ibn zyed and the second requontista was made by Youssef ibn tachfine Berber and Sultans of Marrakech
There was no Portugal and Spain at the time. Arabs conquered the Visigoths with the help of collaborators. Portugal was one of many kingdoms that emerged during the Reconquista. Spain emerged later with the union of these other kingdoms, particularly Castile and Aragon
@@ghostd69 the Almoravids and the Almohads were moroccan dynasties . The almohad were founded by the moroccans from the Masmuda tribe lead by the Mahdi Ibn Tumert. The Almoravids were founded by the Sanhaja tribe lead by Abdellah Ibn Yassine, and Mauritania wes a part of Morocco back then.
Truly one of the greatest rulers I think ive ever heard of. The Sultan Abd dying and likely miserable beyond belief put his people first and used the last of his life's energy to inspire them.

@@kippies66 thats typical crusaders for you . they did that against Egypt in the 7th crusade and got totally demolished by a far superior egyptian army who have developed the best cavalry in the world inspired from mongols and persian and arab ways of chivalry + using cannons and greek fire against the crusader fleet and garison in damyet it was just a historical spank that wont be avenged till napoleon's invasion of egypt some 600 years later

There were also Ottoman janissary soldiers and a small number of Turks in this war. Most likely, these janissaries were the soldiers with rifles. Because the main weapon of the Janissaries was the rifle (arquebus)
This is correct!
No they weren't go away roach
not all but yes . moroccans though did have their own as shown later when morocco and ottomans will go to war and when morocco invaded and colonized the saharan and subsaharan regions of mali and niger few years later . moroccans though have a doctrine of horse gunners and it date since the Marinid dynasty and its still celebrated today in the fantasia / Tbourida events that is a kind of sport where each group of each team have to run a certain distance then do a war cry and fire at synch when the order is given. the style , the formation , the timing all attribute to the final score . it was added to intangible heritage of unesco

Only two kings...the Moroccan mercenary who came with the Portuguese was not a king at all, and the number of his men in the Battle of Wadi Al-Makhzen was 300 mercenaries, all of whom perished along with 80,000 to 100,000 Portuguese and their reckless king

The Dutch traveler Van Linschoten mentioned that the Portuguese army's firearms like cannons and riffles are all made in Europe not in Portugal, and the Vatican buys this arms and sends it as military aid to the Portuguese army, and also that most of the workers in the ship factories are foreigners mainly Italian ..and even some Africans

Ahmed bin Al-Qadi, the famous mortoccan historian, witnessed the battle with the Sultan and described it with details and described the victory as the Victory of Badr. He mentioned that the number of Portuguese was 125,000, and 100,000 of them were killed and captured, and the rest were pursued but many escaped on ships .. he also claimed that the bishops of Portugal after the disaster of Wadi Al-Makhazin or Wadi Al Sayl 1578 saw that their country become devoid of men. they allowed women to commit adultery with any male they found on the street ibn Al-Qadi mentioned also the presence of an Ottoman battalion of 10,000, most of whom were artillerymen led by Ramadan Pasha
Which page and vol he mentioned 125k portugal ? Ibn al qadi was pro saddian historian under ahmad al mansour who invovoled in battle and he might telling his historian to wrote in purpose to glorly and praising himself by giving overexaggerate numbers to portugal so it might be baised source. He was backed up by the strongest superpower empire of ottoman no doubtally he would defeat protugal
So he was a propagandist liar
The whole Portuguese population at the time was 1mil and there is no way they had 100k+ on the battlefield. Portugal always fought in small numbers.
@@ghostd69 Ofc 125k is exaggerated, like almost every historic battle
@@ghostd69 it is not the fact that the ottomans backed the moroccans that they could, as if they couldn't win without them, plus they won a battle against the ottomans just after that. The main motive for the moroccan to achieve victory against Portugal was the fact that they were kicked out of Iberia less than a century before.

Good video.
Drinking game: Every time someone mentions "when's the next Hannibal video" take a shot. For legal and health reasons do not ACTUALLY do this
This is an old episode, but a great one.
How would x conqueror aproach this battle? Hannibal: Strech the line and hide troops in plain sight if necessary, elite cavalry ambush when all troops are commited, kills everyone. Alexander: Strech the line and overload one of the flanks, pikes hold center while companions racks in the kills, enemy leader manages to escape. Caesar: Strech the line, cavalry is used to tie down enemy cav, infantry charge, the 10th easily wins their engagement and carry the day. Enemy surrender.
I can see Caesar sending a part of his force to block off the enemy supply route, digging in, engaging in some random skirmishes and then eventually accepting the enemy’s surrender here without a real battle. That becomes more likely considering the Portuguese had a large army within Moroccan territory with no long-term ability to sustain themselves.
You left out Obi-Wan Kenobi: Occupy high ground. Game over.
@@thehunzz never heard of him
Are you speaking from the Moroccan side or the Portugese side? Cause with the seeming cavalry superiority of the Moroccans, I doubt Hannibal or Caesar's described strategy would work here.

that battle is extremely interesting
Reminds of the Battle of Carrhae and the fall of Crassus. Similar tactics were used by the winning and losing sides.
In Portugal, we are taught that the fate of D. Sebastião after the battle was uncertain since no body was buried and due to that, during the subsequent Iberian Union, a "prophecy" surged where on a misty night D. Sebastião would return to Portugal atop his white horse to liberate the country from Spanish rule.
I am moroccan and I love portugal and to accomplish flurishement and prosperity we all should ally and move on to a bright future ( just like the 2030 world cup)
*Army facing large amounts of light cavalry forms square in an open field* Crassus: "They stole my move!"
A great perspective of a moment of significance in the Portuguese expansion. It was the end of the most advanced Empire.
HistoryMarche, there are more two parts battles to combine on video to make such as: First Battle of Tarain, 1191 AD ⚔ The First Islamic Conquest of India and Second Battle of Tarain, 1192 AD ⚔ Muhammad of Ghor Returns. Battle of Targoviste, 1462 AD Battle of Cynoscephalae, 197 BC I hope you can voice and narrate the battle of Targoviste from the old narrator that would be awesome to see your next video. And I hope you narrate the first part of How did Rome Conquer Italy? the Battle of Cynoschephalae, 197 BC by Knowledgia when you combine the second part of the video.
One of the best history video I've ever seen, that was awesome !
The tragic thing about King Sebastian is that he had been a good king before this dumb disastrous campaign. He reformed thr army to match the Spanish tercios, built hospitals for the poor, made some good reforms and genuinely cared about the well being of the average person . There was genuine hope that he would save Portugal's future, sadly he had also been raised by Jesuit priests who put bad ideas about crusading in his head and doomed him and his nation. Even though Portugal reclaimed its independence part of the country's soul died in Alcacer Quibir never to be recovered.
True, Sebastian's story is tragic because, despite the flaws he had, he also displayed virtues such as the love for his kingdom, his wish to be a great king and his determination that inspired and gave hope to the people. I believe he would had been a good monarch if not for this battle. As you stated, many of the laws and reforms during his reign had the well being of the people in mind. He was much beloved by the folk, who called him "the desired king" and his death was indeed "the blow" for Portugal's spirit, no doubt.
There is the suggested video in the end at the centre Impossible to see the last note Put it all back on the right please, you had the right solution
Minor tactical error! Sebastian's best strategy here was to form a cohesive line as the terrain provides difficult flanking moves.His better trained and equipped infantry could theorectically hold off many waves.Victory still seems impossible so a stalemate was the only option he should take.
Much love to our Portuguese cousins from Morocco 🇲🇦❤️🇵🇹

Reupload?
Feel like Sebastian tried to go a bridge too far here. As had he stayed near the coast and besieged the remaining none held Portuguese cities on the coast, would remain close to supply line and reinforcements and make enemy come to him. By plunging recklessly into interior in pursuit of decisive battle, gives enemy advantage, which the morrocans used expertly to gather a huge army and prepare tactics to blunt the effectiveness of the enemy’s main battle winning weapons.
Imagine you're a young man and you just became king of a country, only to go off to invade your neighbour and lose your first battle and die. Strategically and tactically, Sebastian was a terrible commander who made every mistake in the book.

Respect to Portugal from Morocco
Most of the crusader army of 1578, consisted of 125,000 men, was not all frol Portugual, but rather a third of it was Spanish, sent by Philip II the King of Spain, who is the uncle of Sebastian, King of Portugal in exchange for Sebastian marrying one of Philip daughters and giving Spain a third of the spoils of the campaign and a third of the coasts and ports of Morocco ..also There were a large number of Italians and Germans in the Crusader army of 1578
They were only 20k to 25k. Which page and vol he mentioned 125k portugal ? Ibn al qadi was pro saddian historian under ahmad al mansour who invovoled in battle and he might telling his historian to wrote in purpose to glorly and praising himself by giving overexaggerate numbers to portugal so it might be baised source. He was backed up by the strongest superpower empire of ottoman no doubtally he would defeat protugal
