Looking at historic facts and evidence selectively, misinterpreting them, ignoring anything that contradicts them. Also, just making shit up and saying it with a straight face so you don't question them. It also helps that the time period isn't well documented so they can just fill the gaps with fantasy.

If you don't know much about history and don't look into their claims at all they can be surprisingly convincing.
