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 Republics… 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 y’all’s take)
