We need a history of Iowa Episode

I always get a message with wild cat oil when I go to northern Minnesota.

As a former New Yorker that moved to Wisconsin, I would love to see a Wisconsin, NY connection. There have been several governors of Wisconsin that were originally from NY. The Oneidas were from NY. And there are many towns with the same name of those in NY. My grandmother was from Superior and ended up marrying my grandfather from the Bronx. 100 years later I ended in Wisconsin.

you have some of your facts wrong st.Paul was not its original name get it correect due your homework here is a hint its the word pig

Nice documentary, but it's a bit "White Washed" like most of American history. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dakota_War_of_1862 The Dakota, (or Santee Sioux), had been forced off of most of their land. Forced to attempt "farming" and after a crop failure in 1861 & harsh winter afterwards, the Bureau of Indian Affairs starved them to death, even though they had a stockpile of grain in storage at the fort. When the Indians begged for some of the grain that was SUPPOSED to be given to them, they were told to "Go eat prairie grass". It had NOTHING to do with a dozen eggs, AND the starving Indians killed 5 settlers, then went on a rampage that was the Dakota war of 1862. 38 Natives that had surrendered out of 308 were hanged in Mankato, MN. And as Paul Harvey would say it; Now you know "The Rest of the Story"!

European people took over

I'm from South Dakota next door. Thanks for the cool video. I learned a lot about a place I like to go visit and my family came over from. Super cool!

Minnesota History is never dull.

Wisconsin. Algonquian for "the good land."

Lousy acoustics / audio 😕

Why are we still referring to our indigenous population as Indians? At this point it's beyond ignorant.

Absolutely loved this video and learning more about minnesota's history! i didn't even learn half of this stuff in school up on the range. I'd love if you made videos that go more indepth into all of the history of minnesota <3

Lots of missing mn history.

I am descended from German and Slovenians in Sheboygan, which also has a very, very traditional German heritage…right down to the cream city bricks and breweries! I wonder where Andy originates from because I notice that he drops the “L” in Milwaukee, which is a very Sheboygan thing to do.

This was a super fun video. I went to SNC and spent many hours in Main Hall. It’s wonderfully preserved and the octagonal areas are sitting areas, well they were in the late 90s, at least! The other buildings I have not seen! I might have to make a trip back up there to check those up once it’s not so frigid!

I have been here and it is amazing. They did such a good job on the restoration of this house over the years and the water system in the house is very innovative!

This videos give me so much pride as a wisconsinite 😊

Did you get the first vet hospital in US. Near the stadium. ?

So the Dakota retreated? Why is this whitewashed? White man came, slaughtered, and drove indigenous people off their own lands.

Carroll College was the first.

Great series! Love Wisconsin history. Little drone trouble at the end there? Lol

he should have built the house for himself and not bother with 19th century 304s

NGL, a town named Pigs Eye would be cool.

Thank you for such a thorough and well done history of Wisconsin. I have long wondered what brought my family to this beautiful state! ❤

If it was good enough for Thomas Jefferson...

the alter and the gorgeous soft green paint colors are like heaven has. What a jewel in Green bays crown!!!!!

I love ❤it 🙏🏽🇺🇸💕❤️♥️❤️‍🩹

It is pronounced MAN-Kate-O.

At 0:08 , where the hell is that at ? Is that in Minnesota? 😮

Born and raised in MN, I miss MN so much, live in AZ now, MN will always be my home

Wisconsin Post Office Murals may be another book to add to your list. Wisconsin has 35 sites with wonderful Depression-era murals. I'm must saying!! LOL

How do I get that price $1.25 an acre? LOL! Thanks for the video

I enjoyed this video and look forward to more Wisconsin videos. Thanks

I got to spend almost all of my summers in Minnesota when I was younger. Truly a magical, beautiful, and amazing place.✌️🇺🇲

Wendelin Grimm, a German immigrant who moved to Minnesota in 1857, created a winter-hardy alfalfa that allowed farmers to successfully grow alfalfa, despite the cold winters. Wendelin Grimm shaped alfalfa in the US with his hardy high-quality alfalfa. In fact, alfalfa in America today all relates back to Grimm's Alfalfa

5:37 do you really think its appropriate to say the fort brought civilization to Minnesota for the first time when the Dakota had been their for hundreds if not thousands years before? seems to be a pretty whitewashed version of history painting the colonizers as good people brining civil society to the "savage natives"

Why did you show Madison, WI when talking about St. Paul

Would be best to keep the playback speed on "normal."

God Bless Minnesota

I have an octagon house. Remodeling it right now and it has some challenges

0:04 I get to see this view almost every day

I just found your channel and it is exactly the kind of place history I’ve been looking for. Really good work, thank you!

19th st.south side yeah

I found this interesting but the background music is really unnecessary

stolen land the epic story

You know, this is pretty interesting. However, you need maps of locations. Especially in the beginning. You touched on great information, but it would be better with an idea of where these sites are. Thank you for your time and information.

There were other people here other than natives before the 1600’s

I didn't see anything about the native battles in central Western Wisconsin. Actually, most of this 3-part series actually had very little about Western Wisconsin.

My dad taught history for part of his career. I remember, as a kid, our family always stopped to read every historical marker we passed. We had every MN book, particularly Native American history. I continue to have an interest.

11:28 Hell Yeah, Minnesotans were the original Confederate ass kickers 💪
