Looking for Suggestions - History Vidshow

[cosmic-llin.livejournal.com]

I'm running a history-themed vidshow for this year's VidUKon, and I'm currently looking for recs!

I'm after any and all vids with historical settings, but I'm especially keen to hear ideas about less popular historical eras, non-Western history and marginalised people in history, since I figure those will probably be harder to track down and I want to have a broad variety of things!

You are very much encouraged to self-rec if you have something you think might fit the bill! :D

Will any of these work?

Lord Byron: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fh02dGfJp0

Da Vinci's Demons: http://chayiana.livejournal.com/79651.html

Vikings: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPFFlijEdwY

If you're interested in comparing vids using the same music, here's the Hollow Crown using the Iron music that Vikings is done to. I happen to like the song! :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ChG9BLJRuU
