As an Ashanti there is something I want to clarify, the reason why the Ashanti's went to war for the Golden Stool was because that stool was the sign of our identity and cultural and if that was taken away from us then we had no leg to on. What you failed to mention was that the British took Ashanti King because they refused to give the British the tool. And one last thing Matt, the Ashanti's and British had been to war 2x before and they never lost, they only won this war cause they had a spy in the Ashanti's army reporting back on their tactics. They forgot for their right, their king and their freedom, I doubt very much that is not something worth fighting for.

Those two tribes used to hate each other since the beginning sooo you could figure the rest out.

The reason for the war is not the camel itself I saw a lot of sources keep adding this war to a list of silly reasons for a war and that does prove they are saying it without knowing the traditions that people had at that time. The real reason comes from what the "Al Basus" said. In her poem, She advises her neighbour (the camel owner that Kulayb killed ) to move because he lives near people who will not protect or take revenge for their neighbour and that what make Jassas mad because in Arabic traditions they held a huge respect for the neighbours and the one who can not protect his neighbour he can not protect himself or his people and that was a big insult for the whole tribe especially if the insult were toward Jassas which is a big name in Bakr tribe. That makes the real reason for the war is the assault that Kulayb did toward Jassas's neighbour, not the camel itself as they claim. Also,

Hi Matt, My brother and I really enjoy your videos. So much interesting facts and love the comedy element you add. :) Just one thing, I've noticed over the last little while, you don't say the number and heading before each new item. I am blind so this is helpful for me to know when you have finished one item and have moved on to the next one. My brother who is sighted says you put it up in text, but I can't see that. I have noticed you have sounds between each item, but I would very much appreciate if you went back to saying the mnumber and heading please. My brother agrees even though he can see the mnumber and heading, he says if it's spoken, he prefers it too. Many thanks and thanks for these videos, I always anticipate the next one, wondering what you are going to come up with next. Please keep them coming. :)

For seceral years, Denmark and Canada have been at war over a tiny island between Greenland and Canada's arctic islands. Every couple of months, a comando from one country takes over control of the island, taking down the other's flag, replacing it by its own and drinking the alcool left by the "ennemy" before leaving some bottles of their alcohol. The Danes leave schnapps and the Canadians leave whiskey.
