Kings and Generals historical animated documentary series on the history of the Renaissance era and the Early Modern history continues with a summary of the year 1337. The year 1337 sets the stage for both the Hundred Years’ War and your first Europa Universalis V campaign. In this video, we unpack why the 14th century was Europe’s crucible: the Little Ice Age, the Great Famine (1315–1317), and the Black Death that rewired demography, labor, and power. We track England and France from feudal dispute to national war—Crécy, longbows, and the first roar of gunpowder—then pivot to the fractured Holy Roman Empire and Italy’s city-states, merchant capital, and the Avignon Papacy. Iberia advances the Reconquista toward Granada as Aragon rules the waves. In the north and east, the Teutonic and Livonian Orders clash with rising Lithuania and resilient Poland under the shadow of the Golden Horde, while Muscovy gathers strength. The Balkans boil as Byzantium declines and the Ottomans rise, foreshadowing 1453. For EUV players and history fans alike, this is your fast guide from medieval chaos to early modern statecraft—perfect prep for your next campaign.
