How Historically Accurate is Rhodes in Red Dead Redemption 2?

[@RealPixels]

Thanks so much for tuning in! Apologies for the delay-Lemoyne has a lot of rich history, and I wanted to try my best to get it right. Let me know your thoughts! What's your favourite location in Lemoyne? I really enjoy the atmosphere of Rhodes, but it's hard not to love Saint Denis-and Lagras is beautiful and eerie as well!

Red dirt is also a massive staple of Oklahoma. Even the name means Red Man, but that's more about the forced relocation of thousands of Natives. As much as my elementary school history book wanted it to be about the clay.

[@MrLeFluffy1]

Funnily enough, that comparison between red "dirt" and red "man" is a bit more on the nose than you might think; ever heard of Native American peoples being referred to as "people of the earth"? Well, that's how many people referred to them...as a way of calling them dirt people. It *sounds* like it's referencing native beliefs, but it was really a "proper" was of calling them dirt. And that's because natives were seen as worth less than dirt, in all honesty. While African and other kidnapped people were worth enough to be cattle (still horrifying and egregious), native people weren't even worth slave work - their only worth was to be murdered. And yet, like you said, no textbooks ever use the word "genocide" when talking about the colonization and subsequent establishment of the USA, but genocide was not only tried for, but successfully carried out in many tribes and distinct native cultures. Sorry, I just...the "red dirt meaning red man" thing was just a bit too real, and as someone with native grandparents, it hit real close to home for a second.

[@newportangels]

@@MrLeFluffy1 thanks for sharing this none the less :00 It was actually really interesting to read, i never knew

[@joshholden9360]

@@MrLeFluffy1 that's not true, though. Calling Indians "red" dates back much further than the forced relocation to Oklahoma, and the "people of the earth" isn't based in racism, but many tribal origin stories, just like the story of Adam, involve being made of/coming from the earth by their creator. The expanded definition of genocide is a UN creation, and still not reflected in the dictionary definition of the word, too, which is a pretty good reason not to be included in textbooks. And speaking of killing people to take their land, and kidnapping people to use as slaves, are you unaware of the prevalence of that amongst American Indian tribes from all over the continent? Because if you're upset about things being left out, surely you wouldn't intentionally leave *that* out.

[@MrLeFluffy1]

@@joshholden9360 I'm so sorry the education system failed you so badly. I don't blame you for thinking what you just said is true, because that's often what's taught. Although, in terms of slurs, "red" comes from the color of native skin, and was absolutely used as a racist slur. Also, what native peoples did in their own land is very different to the actual genocide committed by white and European colonizers. Ever heard of small pox blankets? The trail of tears? Those are only two examples of thousands.

[@---th3xl]

@@MrLeFluffy1 It is true, though. I'm a native from Canada. A few years ago I heard a version of the "creation story" involving "god" making native americans out of red clay or dirt, (can't remember). It's one of the major ones in ontario, I think. You're still right about it being a slur. Other races were made out of resources from the earth also. So even if it was some backhanded story, the other races get the same treatment.

[@habboaddict2]

Small detail but a state legislator often refers to someone who makes laws for a single state, as a part of that state’s legislative body, rather than representing that state on a federal level. The man mentioned around 14:00 may not be someone representing Lemoyne in the nation-wide House of Representatives, but rather someone representing a county or district in Lemoyne who votes on laws that are only binding to the state of Lemoyne. For example, the state of Louisiana now has 2 federal senators: John Kennedy and Bill Cassidy. However, the Louisiana state senate itself has 39 seats, which doesn’t even include the state’s lower legislative body. *edit: also just wanted to say, great video as always! Very detailed research and interesting presentation

[@reecedignan8365]

So one small additional for ya. When Shawn is referring to if Arthur’s family was Jacobites or English Lovers he’s not asking if Arthur’s family is English in the later question. When the Jacobite Rebellion broke out - caused when Bonnie Prince Charlie landed in Scotland to try and reclaim the thrones of England and Scotland - the Jacobite’s would primary be made up of the Highland Scottish Clans. In Scotland you have two areas. The highland and the lowlands. The Highlands up north we’re primarily where you’d find your Scottish Clans by the 17th/18th Century. A big factor in many of these Clans joining Charlie was that he was a Catholic Prince - The Prince of Orange being a Protestant. Being primary Catholics themselves they wished to see a Catholic Prince restored to the throne - note being Irish Shawn is also likely heavily Catholic as such was very much sided with the Jacobite cause as are many Catholic descendants today in Scotland and Ireland. The Lowlands of Scotland however - areas around Stirling, Fife, Edinburgh, Glasgow, etc - were quite heavily Protestant vs Catholic and weren’t as based in the older clan traditions. Many of the Highland clans would actually attribute them to being more Englishised than Scottish bred - which as you got closer to the English boarder you could say as the influence of Northern England did push into lower Scotland as did some lower Scottish influences also push back. This would also prove a large factor in when Bonnie Prince Charlie returned much of the initial regiments and even some later regiments raised to fight the rebellion - the main British army being out about the world forming an empire leaving mostly training battalions and militias behind - were made from Lowland Scots. After the Rebellion several Clans who had either sided with the Crown would be left alone and a few would soon go into form the basis for many of the highland Foot Regiments within the British army (The Gordon’s, The Cameron’s and the Black Watch being 3 Examples) However, those that sided with Charlie would be either killed of during the highland clearances or driven into exile/forced to flee. Many of these groups would sail for America and Canada and make settlement there - others would sail for Ireland, France, Spain, Italy (insert Catholic based country here). As such when Shawn asks “or are you English loving types” he’s asking if Arthur’s ancestors were apart of the Scottish people who sided against Bonnie Prince Charlie and fought for the Prince of Orange.

One note, at 13:55, a state legislator could refer to a member of that states house of representatives, not a member of the national congress. The main difference would be he represented his district to the state government, and not the federal government. Which means he would also have a much more direct hand in the laws in that state than a federal representative.

It's funny because after playing things like the robot mission or finding the Viking helmet I thought that the game was playing more fast and loose with the time period (not that I minded) but learning how much research was put into this on top of the weirder missions made me seriously appreciate the game more.

a small note on 13:53 the term state legislator refers to state-level (usually lower house) legislators, like a NY state assemblyman or Virginia delegate rather than a federal-level legislator like a member of the house of representatives. so the dead guy was likely a member of the lemoyne state legislature rather than a member of congress

@Lando Calrissian I think you misunderstood that. He was saying, accurately, that the Klan would go after Republicans, as that was the party of Lincoln.

[@RealPixels]

Nope, Josh Holden is right. This is from my original script. "The group, founded in 1874, targeted mostly African-Americans-made clear through its affiliation with the KKK-but also whites who supported the Republic Party, and, of course, northerners who supported the Union."

Grog is still a staple in the US Army. I don't know about the other US Military branches. But in the Army, it is tradition to create "Grog" at Army Balls and Dances. For example, at a Battalion Ball, the First Sergeant (1SG), senior enlisted of a US Company of about 80-120 soldiers, from each company will add a different spirit or liquor to the batch, finishing off the with Battalion Sergeant Major. Sometime unconventional items will be added such as coffee grounds, sour beer, or even leafy vegetables (yeah grog can get gross). Each item put in by the 1SGs and the Sergeant Major represent something about thr Army, the installation, or the Unit. For example, adding vodka can represent diesel used in Bradley's, etc, etc. Hope some find this interesting.

It’s a pretty good “rule of thumb” to assume that anything’s first appearance in text was probably spoken verbatim at least 10-20 years before, and a safe assumption that time frame is potentially much longer the further back in history you go, as phrases moved between people the further back in time you go, due to lack of communication methods like newspaper or the telegraph. Though it also largely depends on the origin of the phrase, because they tend to be shared over a city much faster than small country towns. Language is fascinating and stupid, but the history of it can be exciting.

I was just talking about the states in RDR w my buddy last night while we were doing deliveries in RDO. We came to the conclusion that each state is a whole region, not a single state. We said the same things... figuring its sposed to be Louisiana. But Lemoyne seems to be a combo of the southern states. Its almost like every 500 yards, it gradually transitions to another biome. Rhodes is very Georgia or Alabama, Southern Lemoyne is like missouri and mississipi. Bayou Nwa and Lakay are sorta Florida and Louisiana and then as you go north and east it gradually becomes Appalachia. Georgraohicly the adjacency of the regions are inaccurate, but there are elements of pretty much all 50 states in that map. Its done really brilliantly, because there are major differences between regions, and the change-over is sudden but not noticeable. You go from hillyTall Trees, cross the river and you are in the open flat great plains... The cliffs hide the fact theres a sudden change coming. Heartlands slowly turns to Lemoyne, all that changes is the soil starts getting redder and the tree patches are bigger. You cross a bridge, and its thick swamp and alligators. Its friggin brilliantly subtle. The "ocean" in Van Horn, or maybe its supposed to be the Great Lakes.... its the same body of water as the Saint Denis docks and thieves landing and the waterfall in the desert lol.

[@dogslobbergardens6606]

I think you're spot-on. The states/geographical regions are just compressed in size. For instance, in reality you couldn't ride a horse from New Orleans up into Appalachia in less than a day, or from way north in the Rockies and down across the Great Plains. But it's pretty much all there in the game, as you described.

[@supergenius6256]

One of the only games that I know of that takes place in my home state, outside of L4D2 of course. I did feel at home in Lemoyne when I first got there, still my favorite region in the entire game. I didn't know how historically accurate it was though but in terms of appearance, I think R* nailed it for that area. When Chapter 2 ended with a bang, I was surprised to see familiar land when they had to move camp. Not the friendliest introduction to the area though with the Lemoyne Raiders, they're pretty annoying tbh, I make sure to take them out everywhere they crop up. Then the mission before taking out Bronte was familiar but the creepiest mission in the game, character in that mission was great as well. All around a well-designed region.

One small thing regarding the Lemoyne legislature's body you find: If he is a "State legislature", that means he was not a member of Congress, but rather a state level representative FOR the state's government, not the federal government.

not sure if anyone has said this yet, Just a note for the next chapter, 'Shady Belle' is could possibly be a reference to 'Belle Reve' a plantation house mentioned in the New Orleans (Saint Denis) set story 'A Streetcar Named Desire', a plantation house previously owned by the DuBois family, before being lost on a mortgage an, in the case of Shady Belle, possibly abandoned. the name 'Belle Reve' mean either 'Sweet Dream' or 'Beautiful Dream', so Shady Belle could mean 'Shady Beauty' or 'Shady Sweet' also the Jesse James gang were know to have taken shelter in the real Kemp Plantation house in Louisiana, so that is likley a more direct reference, but the possible 'Streetcar' reference is just somthing i noticed while playing through the game.
