TED-Ed: The rise and fall of the Kingdom of Man | Andrew McDonald

The video explores the rise and fall of a medieval empire led by the Sea Kings, starting with Godred Crovan's consolidation of power over the Isle of Man and the Hebrides. The Sea Kings controlled vital sea routes and built a formidable maritime empire. Despite internal conflicts and rivalries with neighboring dynasties, they maintained power for two centuries.
