We investigate the size difference of Classical vs Medieval Battles! Build your own Ancient Empire with Knights of Honor II: Sovereign https://thqn.net/3gU9OgI

In this 3D history documentary we seek to seek to explore the size of massive battles across 2,000 years. To do so we have gathered a data set of all major battles (more than 2,500 participants) which either have explicit numbers stated or which can be approximated in size by the description of our sources. In doing so we can derive fascinating insights about ancient warfare. However we should note that this data set is highly limited and prone to bias. We have therefore attempted to use the average estimated figures of historians when possible and will only be looking at broad trends.

In this episode we begin our study by looking at the size of battles in the British Isles and Western Europe. Whilst covering the British Isles we look at such events as the Roman Invasion of Britain, the Battle of Mons Graupius, the Invasion of the Great Heathen Army, the Battle of Edington between the VIkings and the Anglo Saxons, the Battle of Hastings between the Anglo-Saxons and the Normans, and finally the Battle of Towton during the War of the Roses between the House of York and the House of Lancaster.

Whilst covering Western Europe (Gaul/France) we cover the Battle of Aurosio between the Roman Army and the Germanic Tribes, Caesar's Gallic Wars, the Battle of Alesia, the Battle of Chalons, the Battle of the Cataluanian Fields between the Western Romans and the Huns, the Battle of Tours between the Franks and the Umayyad Caliphate, and the Battle of Agincourt from the Hundred Years War.

All together its a vast set of data but which yields great insight into the history of each region. What areas and periods should we cover next?
