Funny you should compare this to a JRPG. There's a SRPG on the PSP based on this story. It's quite good, if a bit easy.

And on top of that. During the time you where more sworn to lords then you where to some nation. So when we find it odd that English king suddenly might also become the king of France it was not so odd in mediaeval times. We are so familiar with the concept of nation-states that for us it seem just weird. But they would think is equally weird to have fidelity to a abstract concept and not a physical person. Of course this was not a black and white thing. There was some comradery with people that shared language and culture. And back in Roman times there was a sense of a abstract what it is to be Roman that transcended belonging clan or tribal and fealty to people. But overall by the middle ages it was a much closer connection to something physical.

@@svenskafanan421 … How on Earth did you come to that conclusion?!

@@anttibjorklund1869 he's trolling

The modern ideas of Nation-states really are only around a century or two old. It kinda funny cause of how hard people have tried to make it seem like its always been this way in some places. Sadly the growth of states and nationalism would help lead to some of the nastiest wars in modern history as well as several "cultural cleanings"

They say truth is stranger than fiction... and it's largely because truth doesn't have to conform to the rules of good storytelling.

@@CosmicPlatonix And yet despite real life not having to follow the traditional conventions of 'good' story telling, stories created by real people and their escapades often provide far, FAR more interesting tales than any fictional character development could ever hope to emulate even if often life has seemingly abrupt deaths or twists of luck that derail what otherwise seemed like overarching storylines.

@@link4585 its a j o k e

Woah, that's... Really interesting and pretty cool.

​@@septimus5202 It really is. Joan of Arc's rise to prominence is one of those historical moments where there just aren't any easy answers to explain what happened. It can't have all been pure luck, but any reasonable explanations beggar belief or don't have any evidence; so ultimately you just have to make up your own mind as to what happened, why, and how. It's why her story, like those of similarly legendary figures like Rasputin, has fascinated people for so long. It's a real shame to boil such a complex and fascinating part of her story down to what amounts to a low-cost "Hail Mary" plan for Charles.

We’ll get into this story and why I decided to omit it in LIES, but the short version is that many historians believe that this “first” meeting with Charles (where she picked him out of the crowd) was actually preceded by a private meeting, and this event was a bit of political theatre constructed to boost Joan’s legitimacy. Sadly describing all the possible scenarios surrounding that event would’ve taken a lot of time without adding much to the episode. We’ll also discuss the bit about her finding an ancient sword in the church of Saint Catherine, which I left out for similar reasons. - Rob

@@KendrixTermina Eh, maybe. He'd be surrounded by other aristocrats though, and they would hardly be starved and smelly.

To be fair you're not having visions of angels and saints telling you to get out of bed are you?

@@Rert That would certainly scare me--I would either get up and run or stay very still and rot in bed. Anyhow, I don't think her strength of character solely revolved around saintly voices. I would say that her character influenced her faith, which in turn influenced her character. She had a great character from the start. As a young child she would give succour to the poor and needy. She didn't really have a flaw in her character, at least not in the eyes of someone who lives in a time when teenagers lick tubs of ice cream at the grocery store and puts them back. It takes a lot of courage to do all that she did. She was certainly terrified, but she managed to overcome her fears. That is true courage. Put people in her position, and I doubt that they would do what she did. She went through a lot and fought for what she believed in even in the face of a painful and slow death.

@@jiayilim1986 Agreed. The fact that she even had the courage to leave her only home, travel to stare down the Crown Prince of France himself to prove herself, and willingly try to lead a fight to break a stalemate that had lasted over a decade proves she was definitely something else. Heck, I'd wager most men and women in modern militaries today, decorated and respect-deserving they may be, wouldn't have been able to pull off the level of achievements she did if they were put in her shoes back then. God may have supported her - and I _do_ believe in God, personally - but Joan of Arc _earned_ her legacy and place in the history books, easily up there with other legends like Alexander the Great, George Washington, Qin Shi Huang, and others.

To get this out of the way, yes, there would have been reasons for that, oral tradition, cultural identity, etc, etc, etc. That doesn't make it any less fascinating.

Oh yes. History is full of uncertainty. Some famous people might never have existed. Or been amalgamations of other people that did. And some things we though where myth turns out to actually be real. At least to some extent. I feel we have gotten a lot more sceptical when it comes to history. I think this a good thing. And I always take any historical narrative I hear about with a tiny grain of salt. Especially when is actually present as a story. (I generally do not argue to much about archaeological finds and more physical evidence. But even these are up to interpenetration. But at least we can go back and look at old artefacts and re-examin them. Not so much about old historical accounts. At best we can hope we find someone else perspective of those events.)

@@Cythil Are there any numbers on how many citizens of the classical era would have just assumed the Illiad and Odyssey actually happened without batting an eye? I feel like it would have been "a lot." I'm actually _mostly_ okay with the whole thing being presented as a story, too - hence why I'm here - although it would definitely help if the Context Fairy and similar stay around.

@@Cythil just to be clear, all history is, to some extent, narrative. A major component of history is interpretation as done by the historian. Obviously, this is not an excuse to flat out make stuff up and it's always good to keep a level of skepticism but, if you're looking for history without narrative, you aren't going to find it. Even just listing names, dates, places or displaying objects in a museum should have an explanation on why those names/dates/places are relevant together (a Japanese town and a Moroccan town aren't terribly relevant without some explanation on why they're relevant) or why those objects are displayed together (ideally, this should be obvious when seen at a museum but this isn't always the case).

Thats not how the "army" thing goes. If the order does not come through chain of command, its not an order. If the order does come through chain of command, it probably can be followed back to God anyway. If it comes from the king, he is officially Gods appointed representative. Its like, declared to be so by the archbishop on the coronation. Besides, escort mission for a possible saint, thats kinda low on the "weird orders" list. Washing your hands before eating, thats some freaky shit you can pretty safely just ignore.

The same church that burned her for heresy? That one? Also, if France wasn't closer to Rome than England, or if England won, the Church would still condemn her...

@@KuK137 Yes, the same Church that burned her for Heresy. Because there was a Civil War in the Catholic Church (the Western Schism, the Pope in Rome vs the Antipope in Avignon) concurrent with the Civil War in France.

@@KuK137 it depends on the political allegiance of the bishops presiding over the trial, though. Bishops back then had quite more power and autonomy from Rome than today's bishops. All the bishops who tried her were pretty much pro-English or pro-Burgundian.

Nope, that'd be Samael.

Nice comparison.

Understanding nationalism is quite the barrel of worms but basically necessary to understand any part of modern history.

After all, why let political intrigue doubting your mission briefing from the divine get in the way of a good crusade.

Well considering the facts there are a few possibilitys. 1. She actually saw every thing she clamed wich would make mean the she was suffering from some kind of psychosis. 2. she was lying about every thing and useing peoples superstitions at the time to help them take down the people who had attacked her home. 3. A combination of the two above

@@qct101 4. She actually saw everything she claimed because they were real and she was indeed a saint. ;)

@@johnbohler6504 this is extra history not extra mythology.

@@qct101 Let's be civil about this. History can't disprove that she didn't see those things, or that they were real or not. (Also, I'd rather not get into a 15 page essay on why this is the case, so can we maybe drop the subject?)

@@qct101 Just listing ALL the options. Whether she did or didn't is unknowable at this point. But perhaps, there is indeed a God and perhaps He did indeed choose Joan to save what we know to be France. That is an interesting thought.

Blackout417 Roberts ehhhh it was also sorta french folklore... the story of Camelot is kinda an authorial mess 😅

The King Arthur legends come originally from the Bretons, a Celtic people who took their last stand against the Saxon invaders after the fall of the Roman Empire in the western edges of Wales and Breton, and Breton is the northwest corner of what we call France. Basically, the King Arthur legends belong to both Britain (not so much England, but Britain) AND France today, but the actual quasi-legendary Artur that inspired the stories was fighting against the people who would become "the English". The monarchs of England, however, are descendants of William the Conqueror (which is covered in another Extra History), and William came from the part of France that the Bretons once called home. So his future descendants decided to latch onto the story of King Arthur and make it part of their court's culture to justify their rule over the island, with King Henry VIII even adopting the Tudor Rose as his sigil (the Rose is meant to be a symbol of the Round Table, with each petal having equal worth among its peers) and ordering the construction of a replica of the Round Table. So the legend that had once been about opposing the Anglo-Saxon invaders came to be the symbol of their empire. That doesn't mean that the stories didn't continue to be popular in France - in fact, Lancelot was first mentioned by Chretien de Troyes, a French writer, who worked at the court of Eleanor de Aquitaine (another character that appears in the Extra History special on the history of England).

Most of Arthurian mythos are French fan fiction
