The greatest skill in war is to be able to defeat your opponent without engaging them in a battle... ... or even being present at the battle, apparently" - sun tzu or some shit idfk

Hes on the list

Ukrainians will say he also stole their name Rus 😂

You should rename the channel and call it "Blacky History"!

and now they claiming they were mooors and ancients egyptians

Nowadays one would say he identified as emperor of the US and protector of Mexico. While people used to humor him - beccause he was always courteous - he clearly was not what he identified as ; perhaps some modern people should see the difference between facts and delusion.

Tooky please come back🐧

"but The French get really upset If you call him Karl instead of Charlemagne..." In Finland we call him Kaarle Suuri 😄 Also for a period all king Georges were king Yrjö. I dont know why or when we stopped.

I find this video quite disrespectful.

What a lame woke ending. You obviously know nothing about the Spanish Empire, where New Spain (Mexico) was more prosperous and developed than Old Spain in Europe. The US paid good money to Von Humboldt to do this sort of espionage in Hispanicamerica and hand them reports, and they promoted independence to make it a weak Republic and then take over half of Mexico’s territory. Never wondered why so many states have Spanish names? Never wondered why there are so many indigenous people living in Hispanic countries while they mostly disappeared from North America? Read up on Charles Fletcher Lummis and listen to Al Borrego, great grandson of Jerónimo.

King Taksin the great is the greatest king of Thailand. He is the most well respected.

10:13 the 27 million casualties were not only russian casualties, but also Ukrainian, belarussian and the rest of the soviet union

Guns the answer is guns

Wow, 5 years gone is a record for me lmao 🤣 Good vid btw 👌

2:23 or….strategic retreat. Live to fight another day and all that

Something about the tower of Babylon…God confusing tongues to topple inappropriate human endeavors

Native Americans in the Americas also went to war and slaved smallest groups around them. There's a scene in Apocalypto movie when the Jaguars and Aztecs stop fighting to see the arriving of Spanish boats. Human beings are a horrible specie. We've been fighting, stealing, enslaving, and committing holocausts for the last ten thousand years.

Reference to Charlamagne but it’s not so great and the decline of Rome during the war with Mexico and the United states 1846 in opposition to what was considered the “unjust war”: Have the histories of the ruin of Greek and Roman liberty consequent on such extensions of empire by sword no lesson for us? Many men have achieved the title and have been called great, but most have been great in crime and blood; an Alexander the Great , a Pompey the great , a Ceasar, a Herod, a Louis, a Henry, a Frederic, a Charles, a Bonaparte, a Charlemagne , a Houston. They were great in many things ; great, perhaps, in ability, great in resolution of will, great in means of influence, and striking in their results; but little in the elements of a truly great character; little in honesty, in truth, in love, mean, selfish, crafty, cruel, and implacable. They have been willing to sacrifice any amount of human life or happiness, to secure their end, and be accounted the greatest. But how poor the honor, how blood-stained the glory! How many death-pangs it has taken to refine their thrill of pleasure, how many tears to water their garlands of victory, how much human gore to dye their purple robes of royalty! What curses have loaded their names on earth, what awful memories must haunt them in the world of spirits! It was when the Pretorian Guards of Rome bore the emperor into office by their despotic will, that the mistress of nations began to decline. And when, in any nation, the glorious gifts of Christian statesmanship, and ripe experience, and large converse among men, and a life-time of civil services to one's country and the world, are postponed and set aside for “the conquering hero," the Genius of rational, heaven-descended Liberty is already meditating her departure to some more congenial clime. We want civilians, not swordsmen; Catos, not Caesars, nor Syllas at the head of Christendom, Christian American and nations. We must show them how much greater in reality Jesus, the well-beloved of the Father, was in washing his disciples' feet, than Xerxes riding forth at the head of his army to lay waste the fairest countries with fire and sword, Jesus dying in ignominy on the cross, than Caesar making a triumphal procession into Rome with the spoils and captives of vanquished kingdoms. 'They have wandered back into the desolated Pantheon, and there, amongst the Polytheistic relics of that " pale mother of dead empires," they have found a God whom these Romans, centuries gone by, baptized, "Terminus". We have seen the end of him and his empire. Whoever would know the further fate of the Roman Diety, so recently taken under the bosom of American Democracy, may find ample gratification of his curiosity, in the luminous pages of the historical accounts of "Gibbons Decline and Fall of Rome". For What Rome was in her decline, America was in her infancy! Such will find that Rome thought as you now think, it was her destiny to conquer and divide nations, and no doubt she sometimes says as you do now "I will conquer a peace!". And where now is she, the once omnipotent Rome, Mistress of the World? And it needs no prophet's eye to read, in the future, the impartial condemnation of history. There we shall be defeated, without doubt and without help, No matter however successful we may be in blowing up Mexican cities and dispersing Mexican armies! Sermons, which are now before us, were preached both on the Rio Grande, and at the city of Mexico before the troops, justifying the war, talking largely of the " Anglo Saxon destiny." Comparing the progress of the American arms with the entrance of the children of Israel into the land of Canaan, and giving the sanctions and benedictions of Christianity to the awful wrongs and barbarities of one of the most cruel, sanguinary, and demoralizing wars on record!" But if the period ever arrives to when the second largest republic on earth, Mexico, and by far the most hopeful and consistent one besides our own is blotted out of the record of nations and becomes the “Poland of the west” we shall be condemned in the eyes of heaven and our own as authors to such tremendous a catastrophe! - From the War with Mexico Reviewed, Abiel Abbott Livermore 1845, American Peace Society

When you drew Verlaine I pissed myself laughing man, he was so ugly and I think you depicted that well.

It’s not what happened then it’s what happens next?

You should have mentioned the warcrimes he did after the war, the economic crisis of yugoslavia, how oil crisis affected yugoslavia, silencing croats for voicing their opinions about how they were diminshed in Yugoslavia (croatian spring) , and many reasons why tito wasnt the greatest “marshall” ever. He did do some great things, but he was also a narcissistic megalomaniac.

¡Viva el Che! 🚩☭

The last segment of this video really highlights how important Columbus and Cortés were in shaping the world (in our favour, thankfully) as we know it today!
