Why Knights Kidnapped Each Other for Money (No, Really)
Chivalry sounds noble; banners, honor, courage but on real medieval battlefields, knights were businessmen in armor. Capturing your enemy alive could make you richer than any victory ever would.
In this video, we uncover the strange, profitable world of medieval ransoms. How knights hunted nobles for gold instead of glory, how ransom etiquette worked like a deadly contract, and how some men made entire fortunes by not killing their enemies.
You’ll see why the smartest knights aimed for purses, not throats and how a single captured lord could be worth more than a castle.
