What Were the Duties of the Varangian Guard? #shorts
Full video: https://youtu.be/0H2Gs87dTfU
This documentary explores one the most famous units of history: the Varangian Guard. We begin with a brief history on the rise of the Byzantine Empire which followed the fall of Rome, focusing specifically on the dynamics of the eastern Roman Empire, which interacted quite heavily with the lands of Scandinavia and the Kievan Rus. This video discusses the history of the Byzantine conflicts with the Kievan Rus, which gave rise to the eventual mercenary service of Varangians in the Byzantine army.
