As with all other historical fictions, the history is wildly inaccurate, but that's expected of shows which I made for entertainment not education. If you want education, read a historical textbook or watch a documentary. This show was incredible, I loved the storyline and how we learned many different stories and from different perspectives. Would definitely recommend it to anyone, especially history fans, who love medieval fighting. Just don't think you know everything about the Templars, Philip IV, Pope Boniface VIII, Pope Clement V, Joan of Navarre, de Nogaret and the many real historical characters just because you watched this.
