2022-10-27 04:02:38 +0000 UTCMy favorite stand alone since idk when! Also if you do a Teutonic Order episode you should strongly consider the war between them and the Novgorod and Pskov Republicsβ¦ really interesting crusader history. Also the two republics are interesting in that they actually had semi-democratic governments (maybe the most democratic at the time? Idk seen mixed opinions would appreciate yβallβs take)
