I Longobardi: L'invasione che creò l'Italia Medievale - #barbero #storia #InvasioniBarbariche

📌The Lombards (568 AD) represent the last great wave of barbarian invasions. But as Alessandro Barbero has analyzed, their descent into Italy was not simply a history of violence, but a long and complex process of cultural fusion. Discover in the video: 📌 The paradox of the invasion: The barbarians did not want to destroy the Roman Empire, but rather to enjoy its civilization (roads, cities, and aqueducts). 📌The clash of Arianism vs. Catholicism: The Lombards, warriors of the Arian religion, were forced to adopt the language and Catholic creed of their Roman subjects. 📌The law of Wergeld: How Lombard law, based on the Faida (revenge) and the Wergeld (the price of a man), replaced Roman law. 📌Italian Identity: How, within two centuries, everyone in Italy—from landowners to peasants—began calling themselves "Lombards," abandoning their Roman identity and creating the first nucleus of medieval Italy. An in-depth analysis of the melting pot that gave rise to our country, bequeathing us words like "guerra," "back," and, perhaps, even... "pizza"! 🤜This channel is not monetized.🤛 ☕ If you love history and want to support me, buy me a coffee!
