Since the Dutch perspective is barely touched upon while they provided most manpower of the allied army I want to add this. (Still a great video btw) The Dutch were very angry and disappointed with the British, when they left the war. Especially since they themselves had had 2 seperate opportunities to make a very advantagous peace with France and leave the allies, but refused that both times. Some voices even called for imprisonment of the 16,000 British soldiers who left the allies. After nearly 40 years of war the Dutch felt so close to taking Paris and paying back Louis XIV for the Disaster Year of 1672. Calmer voices however decided that it was now time to make peace. The peace treaty concluded that the Dutch were to take control of and garrison several cities in the Austrian Netherlands payed for by both Austria and the Dutch Republic. This was to provide the Dutch with a barrier against further French agression and gave the Dutch effectively shared control of the Austrian Netherlands until the late 18th century. This had been the Dutch objective at the start of the war so in that sense the war can be said to have been a Dutch succes. It is however also true that 40 years of warfare had taken great financial toll on the Dutch state, which would mean that the Dutch would enter a period of decline. After 1748 the Dutch would not be considered anymore among the major powers. The 40 years of warfare had however halted French expansion in Europe for a century and safeguarded Dutch independence.

Indeed the Dutch aren't written about as much despite them making up most of the allied army. They did the bulk of the fighting at Ramillies, routed the French right at Oudenaarde, and paid a great price at Malplaquet. Not to mention took on the burden of paying for much of the allied army.

@@FieldMarshalYT Yeah, only recently really, did Dutch historians themselves start to cover the conflict from a Dutch perspective. Those works have sadly yet to be translated to English, which means that the stories about the war are generally told from a British or French perspective. So I don't blame you from leaving the Dutch perspective out. You still did a fantastic job

@@FieldMarshalYT Well there are a few interesting point to make. While you are researching the topic you might come across the statement that the Dutch were reluctant to fight at the start of the campaign in 1744. This is based on the fact that the Dutch and French still refused to declare war on eachother. While the Dutch were indeed reluctant to declare war they weren't reluctant to fight. They wanted to defend the barrier fortresses for which they had so desperately fought decades earlier. In fact, it were the British who refused at first to engage the French in the open field or to put their troops on garrison duty. George Wade had orders not to risk his British and German troops getting captured. Because of Jacobite tensions in Britian the British wanted the ability to send their troops back any moment. This hampered the allied ability to respond quickly. About the battle itself: The Dutch didn't understand why Cumberland decided to retreat after the battle and leave the Dutch garrison in Tournai to its fate. One officer wrote "We were repulsed without being beaten and now our hasty retreat makes us look like beaten people. (...) Besides timidity there is also the bad thing that we have left a lot of the baggage and many wounded." The British accused the Dutch of cowardice for not continuing their attack on the French right. While this was overblown, there was also unsatisfaction within high Dutch command. Waldeck wrote that "the famous old Dutch courage" had gone and Cröntrom, an officer who fought at Malplaquet, that "these troops are not like those in the previous war". They were used to different standards. This let them to implement an intensive programme of retraining, and the Dutch performed better at Rocoux in 1746.

The video is good. Very well presented and serious about the informations. One thing to correct, is that really the whole french army was in front of Landrecies and the manoeuvre was very risky as they left in the middle of the night leaving just a curtain of troups in front of the allies and they march north to attack the rear lines of Eugene de Savoie. This is a genius idea that changed everything.

I thank you for your excellent work. But I'd ask whether you would be interested in going further east,also a neglected period. That of the Ottoman Empire and its 18th century campaigns like the one in morea vs Venice and its Safavid-afsharid wars with Persia. Sounds like a decent comeback story after the disaster that is the great Turkish war.

Great battle but I have something to say about the end. Perhaps I completely misunderstood your point and if so I apologize, but is there any evidence that Louis XIV really wanted to unite France and Spain? It's often mentionned as one of his war aims but I don't think it make sense. When Louis claims at the beginning of the war that Philip retains his rights to the throne of France, The Grand Dauphin and The Duke of Burgundy (who was already married to Marie Adelaide of Savoy) are the two immediate successors of Louis to the throne. For a Franco-Spanish union to be possible, Louis would either have to expect both his son and first grandson (burgundy) to die early or he would have to disinherit them to put Philip as his immediate successor, which would make no sense. Granted Burgundy and the Grand Dauphin did eventually die of illness before the war ended, leaving the future Louis XV behind, but this was unexpected and it wasn't the plan at all and Louis XIV was very much devastated by their deaths. So I think Louis claiming that Philip retained his rights was either a simple matter of pride or a "just in case" procedure if Spain didn't work out, or both. Louis was a guy who took dynastic rights extremely seriously.

Albemarle was subordinate to Prince Eugene this battle. It was his passive marshalling of reinforcements as well as poor placement of Albemarle's troops at Denain that allowed rhe French to defeat the two commanders in detail. Prince Eugene has as much blame despite not being present for all of the battle. Secondly, Eugene was pursued so hard that he would end up losing most of allied gains in the region and be chased to the Rhine where he would be unable to stop Villars at Freiburg.

This battle and Villars really saved France in the war of the Spanish succession. The allies had previously sent harsh terms of peace to Louis XIV, the most humiliating one being to declare war to his grandson to depose him. King Louis adressed his people with a letter, read in all churches accross France, urging the French to a last and desperate effort in order to not accept a humiliating peace. When this victory came, France got favourable terms including the most important one, putting a French prince on the throne of Spain.

It is indeed difficult to say who won this war. But, if the goal was to prevent the Habsburgs from encircling France by taking the Spanish throne, we can consider that it was a French success despite the independence of Spain from the throne of France. The preocpations of kings in a regime that is still almost feudal is a bit complicated, I think, to understand in modern times, which is ours.

Thanks to Louis 14th and his persecution of the Huguenots the Dupont family moved to Delaware in America. The family established their sheep farms with their famous black wool, French wine vines and of course the French secret of making granulated gun powder. This gun powder helped America win it's revolution and the black wool kept American troops warm! What would have happened if Britain had continued to support the war? Would the allies, with Austria as the leader, defeated France? Who would take what territory in Europe, and it's colonies abroad? Would the Dutch have prospered and expanded their borders? So many questions all put to rest from the results of one battle!

If you think in terms of dynasties, the War of the Spanish Succession was a massive win for Louis XIV. The Spanish branch of the Bourbons has kept their throne up to the present day (albeit in a purely ceremonial role under a constitutional monarchy and with plenty of hiccups along the way). The main Bourbon branch in France... didn't fare so well. Of course, he was at least partially responsible for the political and economic conditions that set France up for revolution at the end of the century, so maybe not so clear-cut a dynastic win after all. As to whether *France* won or lost, that's an entirely different matter. I once heard the end of the conflict described as "The great powers of Europe had fought for a decade to achieve a peace settlement which looked almost identical to something any number of diplomats could have drawn up in 1700: Bourbon control over the Spanish throne in exchange for territorial concessions and a prohibition on ever uniting the two monarchies". (I'm 95% sure it's from Charles Spencer's "Blenheim: Battle For Europe").

I think it is fair to say that France lost. They didn't get anything out of the war while doing many consessions. The dynasty change in Spain didn't mean that much when Spain was hostile to France anyway in the aftermath of the WoSS. And they were allowed to because the Maritime powers were indifferent to it after the death of Joseph I in 1711.

@@TrompetterJanKlaassen I misspoke. What I actually wanted to say is that for me, and therefore it only concerns my opinion, it is that my country (I am French, but be careful, I am not in the habit of glorifying when I should not) clearly could have lost even more. In the sense that as we can see the beginning of the war was chaotic for the French, and it was really at the end that the last battles made it possible to save a little bit of honor. I think that without certain combat victories towards the end, France could have ceded (maybe) parts of its continental territory. If this war would have been lost completely it does not seem incoherent to me that the allies would have asked for territories that Louis had conquered during his reign. a Although we cannot speak of a resounding victory in some way the last years of the war made it possible to "save the furniture"(idk what is the expression in english) a little, to avoid a worse defeat. So yeah, I see what you mean. But in this case if it is a defeat France still managed to avoid much worse. I like to say that "the ship did not sink but still has plenty of water"

Seen from a very great distance, this war should be placed within the remarkable trait of European history: the failure of hegemons to impose their power across the entire continent. The combination of France and the Spanish Empire would have created a true hegemon, and this was averted by the Coalition. Though a truly disastrous outcome for France was prevented by Villars, Philip did not unite the crowns of Spain and France. If Louis had succeeded, he would truly have been a historic figure: Perhaps there would have been no Enlightenment (autocracy and the divine right of kings confirmed, parliament and Dutch republicanism defeated). Perhaps Protestantism would have been stamped out (remember the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes...).
