This is a channel dedicated to people searching for a history documentary and other academic stuff. You like social scienes, the humanities and want to learn something and feel entertained? Please feel welcome. Medieval history documentaries will be my focus, cause I specialized in the period of the Middle Ages. But it is far from all of the content you will find here.
