The Technology that Ended the Middle Ages

Video Description

The history of Star forts is super interesting - they sit in Europe (and around the world; look at St. Augustine) as visual artefacts of a literal Medieval/Renaissance arms race. Learning about them teaches us about technological innovations that ended the medieval period and created the groundwork for the modern era. It also shows how crucial the cannon was as an invention of late medieval warfare. Ayooo, thanks for watching.
