Gjergj Kastriotit Lavdi falimderit qe une Sot e foli gjuhen e zotit gjuhen shqipe 💪🇽🇰🇦🇱🇺🇸🇺🇸🇸🇻🇸🇻🙏

The Only General in History who never lost a battle. 32 Wins vs 0 Lost and 98.2% of the battles were outnumbers like Fisrt Siege of Kruja when Skanderbeg had 15.500 forces vs 82.000 ottoman troops. The Greates General of all time

Skenderbeg is the greatest general in history in my opinion because he was a protector, against all odds he protected his country. Whereas Alexander, Napoleon or Genghis Khan they where conquerors don't forget they killed and slaughtered millions of people they where murderers, and people still glorify them. Skenderbeg always nr 1 in my heart 🇦🇱🐐

I love it when channels cover this legendary leader.❤

24-1 in battles with 5-8k soldiers in each battle, against 100k enemies in each battle. truly unheard of ! one of the greatest leaders of all time

He was not just a Strategist military general, but he was also from a Noble Albanian family. He was a KING, and he unified all the Albanian Princes of that time. The Legendary Gjergj Kastriot, the Shield of Europe!

Great video, thank you! I've been to Kruje several times; it's a beautiful place.

This guy was like Spartacus and William Wallace. With the skilled swordsmanship and passion of Richard the Lionheart and Musashi Miyamoto. I find it interesting that he also had a similar upbringing to that of Vlad Tepes but fought on opposing sides, and he was not cruel as Vlad was, but was a guy who had honor and defiance to the Empire that was in charge of the time.

I consider myself so lucky to be albanian and speak the same language as Gjergj Kastrioti Skanderbeg!

LOVE your channel. Thank you for working so hard to make the amazing videos you do.

Skenderbeg should be at the top list as one of the best fighters in the history of humanity ! I don’t think exist any leader or fighter to face such a big army with very small army and still win, just shows how brave and clever man he was

Thank you for this great job you have done 🦅

Even me as a serb is proud of skanderbeg, he was a huge asset vs the ottomans. He fought besides all types of slavic people and didnt discriminate anyone. An absolute gigachad.

You describe the history great !!!Thanks for this 👏🇦🇱❤🦅

I have read a book about Skanderbeg and his family, what a great warrior from a great family with honor and integrity that never forgot about his family and country even though he was taken from his family as a very young boy

Another brilliant video with great detail and special effects, I have wanted to go to Albania for a while, after seeing this vidro, I will make it my next vacation

The artwork is epic and this was a excellent video, first time coming across your work!

Thank you for this beautiful video!

Outstanding production, this is an amazing story. The way you you bring history to life , and the soul that you bring with it. You are truly one of the world's greatest Heralds.

Great video, man!

There are seven squares throughout the world that hold the name Skënderbeu (Skanderbeg): Tirana, Chicago, Zurich, Skopje, Pristina, Rome, Paris. There are many statues of him in Tirana, Pristina, Geneva, London, Brussels, Budapest, Rome, Michigan, Spain, Australia, etc. In all of them, the Albanian hero is depicted riding on the horse symbolizing the warrior.

Thank you in behalf of all Albanians! Amazing work . We are the Land of Eagles. ALWAYS FIGHTING FOR OUR FREEDOM!

Excellent video, you've just gained a new subscriber.

Fascinating ,cheers ! 🔥🍷

Thank u fore the great work u done on this history of our King.🙏

Venice has proven to be the best Turkish allie many times...

Our biggest Flex it's this Legend Skanderbeg 🇦🇱 Thank you for this masterpiece and the hard work you put in 🤝🏻

Beatiful story put together, as an Albanian however 2 things we have learned different in our history: 1. Skanderbeg didn't kill any other Albanian who didn't convert to Christians but he was actually the only one who united all the Albanian regards to their religious. 2. He was not betrayed after the lost of the Berat fight, he actually lost the fight because his own nephew betrayed him to the Ottomans by promising him good and high titles after they would kill Skanderbeg wixh thanks God didn't happened. All Europe should be proud of him.

Sorry for being late bro! I’ve been working alot but thank you for making a video on skanderbeg you are the best history channel on UKposts by far

Scanderbeg's modus oparandi was: "United we stand".

GJERGJ KASTRIOTI (scanderbeg) uniting the Albanian nation under his flag 🇦🇱 🇦🇱 and winning every battle against the ottomans is one of the glorious moment of the Albanian nation .. My respects..

You are a gift HP, thank you!

Yoooo the greatest warrior profile I've seen

You're keeping your graphic artist well busy with all of these amazing profiles from history! I love your channel and I feel like it is only getting better every day. The artists you use have an amazing knack for realism but they manage to keep the action-star presence a huge dude with an axe displays. Every warrior looks S-tier and fierce. It's a good recipe. Keep it up!

This was epic! Great job History Profiles . Thank you so much. It's always a joy listening to those people remarkable lives

I'm Albanian, I've seen your documentary, but I have to say I don't agree with the way you described my hero and my KING Gjergj Kastrioti Skanderbeu. From your description comes a wrong and incomplete image that is, the complete opposite of what his contemporaries said. Scanderbeg was a VERY educated person he spoke many languages (more than 10) he had enormous culture also in terms of esoteric / gnostic demonstrated by the use of symbols in his helmet: the goat, the use of the star with 6 points (blue and yellow color) in the totally red flag (imperial color) with the black double-headed eagle (i.e. black PHOENIX rising from its ashes: solve et coagula. ) He was in the order of the DRAGON together with many important exponents of his time and was also a TEMPLAR. In the correspondence between Scanderbeg and the Prince of Taranto, extracted from "The Turks and the history of Scanderbeg" by the fifteenth century writer, Pagnel: "... you have offended my people by calling them 'Albanian sheep' and according to your tradition think of us in offensive terms. You have demonstrated that you have no knowledge of my race. My ancestors were Epiriotes, where Pyrrhus came from, whose strength could hardly be borne by the Romans. This Pyrrhus, who Taranto and many other towns in Italy supported with the army. I don't need to talk about Epiriotes. They are much stronger men than your Tarantini, a kind of wet men born only to fish. If you want to say that Albania is a part of Macedonia, I can concede that many of our ancestors were nobles who went as far as India, under the command of Alexander the Great, defeating those peoples. It is from these men that what you call 'sheep' descend. But the nature of things hasn't changed. Why are your men fleeing from these 'sheep'?” Not to mention the helmet which bears the Pelasgian symbol of the goat Amalthea (which according to the myth had fed Zeus with its milk as a child), and the engraving * IN * PE * RA * TO * RE BT * (Jhezus Nazarenus * Principi Emathie * Regi Albaniae * Terrori Osmanorum * Regi Epirotarum * Benedictat Te) which translates 'Jezus of Nazareth blesses the Prince of Emathia, King of Albania, Terror of the Ottomans, King of Epirus'. It is important to understand that in the Middle Ages the 'Macedonian' and 'Epiriot' ethnicity was synonymous with 'Albanian' according to scholars. In his speech to the documentary, Prof. Jahja Drancolli highlights the fact that Scanderbeg was taken hostage already in adulthood when his personality and identity was well formed, underlining that in reality it was his military-strategic capabilities that were copied by the military system of the Ottoman Empire and not the other way around. This aspect emerges from the beginning of the documentary by Prof. David Nicolle, who argues that the Ottomans copied many things from the countries they occupied including clothing, traditions, culture, and even military fighting strategies. That is why the most powerful political-military machine in the world of that time was not capable of subduing the Albanians neither with force, nor with the quantity of soldiers sent, nor with military tactics, nor with technology or with money. Not only that, but during those 25 years of armed resistance, the Ottoman Empire was defeated in a decisive and continuous way, demonstrating that the intellectual, political, military, and above all the moral and civil qualities of the Albanians were in every respect superior to the standard Empire preparation. The Albanian society of the fifteenth century already possessed the main quality that a community should have to build a nation and a state: the awareness of who they were, the knowledge of their ancient Illyrian-Pelasgian roots and consequently the connection with their past. All of this was the result of a long process that began before the creation of the Principality of Arbëri in the 13th century. In this context, Scanderbeg's intentions were not only to create an Albanian state on the periphery of the Ottoman Empire, but to destroy the empire itself, to then form the Kingdom of Albania in the western Balkans, reviving the glorious times of Pyrrhus, King of Epirus, and of Justinian, Emperor of Byzantium, of whom he was a descendant in all respects. Scanderbeg created the first Albanian National League in 1444 in Lezha, with the aim of uniting all the Albanian territories in a single national state based on the ethno-linguistic heritage that united them, unlike the other Balkan countries which in the centuries ago for the creation of their states were based on religion. As Prof. Kristo Frasheri rightly specifies, the pillar in which all the Albanian resistance is placed was the indisputable fact that the Albanians were aware of being an already well-formed nation, long before the arrival of the Ottomans in the Balkans. Otherwise we would never have been able to face the Ottoman invasion and to resist assimilation for a long time.

What an awsome human being thank you for this education on this

Very Good Work 💪 you explained 100% very very Well-done to you.

LONG LIVE KASTRIOTI!!!!! LONG LIVE KASTRIOTI!!!!! thanks to him I am here today and have my family and because of him the entire Balkan was NOT bred out!!!! KASTRIOTI WILL FOREVER LIVE ON EVEN AFTER EARTH IS GONE!!! this man was real not a myth but a true and real hero who never died by the sword and he was UNTOUCHABLE!!! LONG LIVE KASTRIOTI LING LIVE BIG ALBANIA one day it shall once again be ONE BIG ALBANIA true land of the free and respect for all people all religions all beliefs we are raised to always respect ALL and wealth does not make a man but a man makes a man !! LONG LIVE BIG ALBANIA

Thank you for sharing our Albanian national hero🇦🇱❤️

Proud to be born in raised in Dibra where Skanderbeg was born. When he returned to Albania he went through my village and the path where he rode with his warriors is called Kepi i Skenderbeut since it's a path located in between two huge steepy rocks. From there he went to Mat and then Kruja.

🗡️🛡️⚔️ he's a legend ✝️🐉.

Another great video

Thank you for this work. I am Albanian myself

Great video keep it up you're doing amazing 👍😁

Excellent video!

Perfect!!!!! History profiles 🙏

Proud to be Albanian🇦🇱✝️

Biggest & Strongest Warrior int the World at this Time ⚔️

The Albanian Dragon Gergj Kastrioti Skanderbeg

Amazing

Great warrior !! I'm amazed about the similarities between Vlad Țepeș and Skanderbeg and even Stefan cel Mare and they almost Lived in the same time line and fighting ottomans 😮

respect skanderbeg from turkey. a noble warrior.

Great video.

This is a good video. One correction needs to be made. The goat on Skanderbeg's helmet has nothing to do with apparently the goat trick. In reality the goat on his helmet is the same goat Alexander the Great war on his helmet, like Pyrrhus and Achilles before him. All three of them (Pyrrhus, Alexander the Great and Skanderbeg believed were related by blood to Achilles. Alexander the Great's mother Olympia who was an Illyrian from the Molossian tribe believed to be a direct descendant of Achilles, which makes Achilles an Illyrian. Anyway that's a topic for another day. So in conclusion the goat on Skanderbeg's helmet is more than just a goat trick on the battle field. He wore it to show he is a descendant of Alexander the Great and Pyrrhus of Epirus, another Illyrian.

He defeated on multiple times two of the greatest Ottoman emperors including Mehmet II the conqueror of Constantinople himself.

Damn the Ottoman Empire just couldn’t help but make warriors destined to destroy them. They cause Vlad to go crazy and now this guy.

He was the beast

Well done mate!!

All Albanians need to convert to Albanian-Orthodoxy to reunite with the spirit of Skanderbeg and become great once again

The King ... The Legend ... Gjergj Kastriot Skanderbeg 🇦🇱 🇽🇰

For all Greek and Serb nationalists out there stealing history. 1. A report of the envoy of the Duke of Milan from 1454 calls Skanderbeg "an Albanian Christian" ("quello Sanderbech...è christiano Albanexe"). 2. The Italian humanist and poet Antonio Bonfini Asculano (1427-1502) calls Skanderbeg an "Albanian prince" ("Sandorbegum Albanensem Principem"). 3. Even the Venetians never questioned his Albanian origins. In 1464, a Venetian senator angrily said of Skanderbeg, that "we do not trust him at all, because he is Albanian, treacherous and dangerous" ("nuy non si fidamo di luy per niente, perche è Albanese et è traditore et tristo!"). 4. In 1464, the Duke of Milan, Francesco Sforza, wrote a letter to Skanderbeg, addressing him with these words: "The excellent and powerful lord, like our dear brother, the Albanian lord Gjergj Kastrioti, called Skanderbeg" . ("Illustri et potenti Domino tanquam fratri nostro carissimo Domino Georgio Castriot aliter Scanderbeg albanesi"). 5. In a letter from Giovanni Antonio, the prince of Taranto, on October 31, 1460, at the beginning of the letter he addresses Skanderbeg with these words: "Giovanni Antonio, prince of Taranto, sends greetings to George the Albanian!" ("Ioannes Antonius princeps Tarenti Georgio Albano salutem!"). He goes on to say: "Italian blood is not afraid of the Albanian face!" (nec faciam Albanam timebit Italicus sanguis!") and other such insults to the Albanians. Likewise Ottoman sources, historians and chroniclers, describe him as being Albanian: Asikpasazade (1400-1484) Tursun Beg (1420-1499) Mehmed Nesri (1450-1520) Idris Bitlisi (1457-1520) Ibn Kemal (1468-1534) Sadeddin Efendi (1536-1599) Mustafa Ali (1541-1600) Solakzade (1592-1658) and others, all describe him as being an Albanian (arnavud). Hoca Sâdeddin Efendi (1536-1599), in his Tacü't-Tevarih, says: “The Albanian ruler had a handsome son named Iskender, whose bodily figure inspired love, while his attractive face was an expression of his beauty and grace.” Ibn Kemal, historian of the Turkish court during Skanderbeg’s wars, writes: “The Albanians, these tigers of mountain wars have as their religion rebellion. Even their worst warrior is one of the strongest and bravest on the battlefield, just as if he was a knight on the legendary horse…” Skanderbeg’s own testimony, however, is stronger than both Western and Ottoman sources combined. So what excatly did he say about himself? Let’s see how he replied to the albanophobe cited above, namely Giovanni Antionio of Taranto who had insulted the Albanian nation: “Moreover, you scorn our people, and compared the Albanians to sheep, and according to your custom think of us with only insults. It would seem you know nothing of the origins of our race. Our elders were the Epirotes from whence Pyrrhus himself came forth, the might of whom the Romans could barely withstand. Those very Epirotes whom with their weapons set forth and conquered Taranto and much of Italy. There exists no challenge to their might from the likes of the Tarantines, a species of wet men born only to catch fish. And since you proclaim Albania as part of Macedonia, you grant also then, our elders as nobles who went as far as India under Alexander the Great, defeating all the people that came before them with great ease. From those men descend these who you now call sheep. But the nature of things have not changed. Why do your men run away in the faces of sheep?”

Love videos on Albanian history

Great video, Gjergj Kastrioti was his name, the name Skanderbeg or Iskender Bey, stems from the turkish way of saying Alexander the Great. Bey meaning great or greater. His got this name because the Ottomans saw his military prowess and compared him to Alexander the Great, who was revered as one of the greatest military tacticians.

New sub!

I have seen the huge skanderbeg statue in a square named after him in the Albanian capital Tirana. Strangely it is very close to a famous mosque there which was built by an ottoman general and his Descendants who were part of the ottoman power skanderbeg stood against. Similarly skanderbeg being held by the ottomans in his younger life and rising against them is just like Vlad tepes, of what is now Romania, known as Vlad the Impaler.

Skenderbeg is dragon for all europe ❤

This badass was worthy of a bigger country. His story is very similar to that of Vlad the Impaler, ruler of Wallachia.

Skenderbeg, the national hero of Albania, was an incredible leader who fought for the independence and freedom of his people. His bravery and determination inspire me! 🇦🇱💪🏼

Well well...color me impressed, lad. A well researched history video. A lot of other channels leave details out when presenting the history of Gjergj Kastrioti aka Skanderbeg. Good on you. 😉👍

Lovely story man! Thank you!!

Still fighting neo-ottomans from his grave. The neo-ottomans try to cover his statue and raise their asses in prayer to their desert god in front of his statue. Skanderbeg will always fight against them, because we have his flag, and we have his legacy. We will never forget

Impressive man. The Ottomans raised and educated him well

Proud to be Albanian. Would watch a series of Gjergj Kastrioti Skenderbeu

great story, this is not just Albania's GREATEST WARRIOR, but Europe's greatest legendary hero. i dont know how the HOLLYWOOD didn't yet made the bigest movie about GEORGE KASTRIOTI SCANDERBEG

greetings from Romania , brothers in arms, member Nicolae Iorga who wrote your history

Much respect, you brought this period of back to life! I would love to see more of those vids by you ❤️

A very well put together video , i have seen a lot of videos about skanderbeg and his life and battles and this is one of the best videos I seen , with great detail!

Great video. Most videos about Skanderbeg has been done about his geniality of being a great war strategist general, but he was a really good diplomat as well. Many correspondences that he had with many of the other leaders in the 25 years he reined as the lord of Principality of Arbanon, with princes, popes and even the 2 Sultans as well, shows how eloquent and wit he was in his way of words.

proud to be albanian and proud of Gjergj kastrioti skenderbeu ✝️🇦🇱💪🏻❤️🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱

LOVE YOU FOREVER SCANDERBEG

Wow! I never knew about him and Albania. Now I know! I met great people from there, ... but this Skanderbeg, what a great person in history! Very speziell when you look at the size of that county

Proud to Be ALBANIAN 🇦🇱 Proud that I am born with ALBANIAN BLOOD 👐🏻 Proud about our HISTORY Proud about for everything ALBANIANS have done for the countries that today are ungrateful and have hidden the true ALBANIAN HISTORY. Ilyrian Forever 🇦🇱👐🏻🇦🇱

Champion of Christ George Kastrioti

Watching from Greece.hi everybody. Interesting video.

True legend

Love your voice and the excellent details your provide. I feel like I really understand the person involved.❤

thank you for your great job what you did for our king,keep up the great job what you do !

Legend 👍💪

In terms of military Ottomans at that time were the most organised and armed in the world, compared only to nowadays US, they had canons, a lot of infantry and horses. A true superpower of that time. Resisting them for 25 years is a great feat however the greatest thing is his legacy, it continous to move Albanians forward even 550 years after his death. A lot of historical generals are famous only for attacking and invading, Skanderbeg is remembered as a master of defense.

Do one about Moldavian Stefan the great. Please

This is a really good video. Great story. I can see why Skanderbeg is considered a folk hero in Albania

Mehmed Ferid Pasha (Turkish: Avlonyalı Ferit Paşa or Avlonyalı Mehmet Ferit Paşa) (1851, Yanya, Ottoman Empire (modern-day Ioannina, Greece) - 1914, Sanremo, Kingdom of Italy) was an Ottoman statesman. He served as Grand Vizier of the Ottoman Empire from 15 January 1903 until 22 July 1908,[1] at the time when the Sultan restored the 1876 Constitution following the Young Turk Revolution.

Albanian warrior.

SKENDERBEG,it is the name of a very fine Albanian brandy

Personally, taking everything into account, I truly believe that he was the greatest general to ever live
