To be exactly correct he was ceremonial high Anglican under to direction of archbishop lLaud. It might be worth remembering that those like Cromwell called independents were actually inclined to allow freedom of worship for any form of protestant worship. The huge problem with Catholics was allegence to Rome was supposed to superceded all national oaths of loyalty. It was essentially a security issue linked to terrorism. Although the holy see stopped sanctioning voiolent intervention even before the gunpowder plot it did not stop radicals and we never forgot how close we came to invasion when Spain was at the height of its power. The holy see recognised the Hanoverian succession.

[@UtopiaPlanitiaStudios]

Excellent details, thankyou!

[@casperscott-ln9fn]

It is almost certain that Charles the second converted to catholic faith on his death bed. The public and nobility were probably prepared to put up with a Catholic James as he was fairly old and his two daughters were raised church of England. The nail in his coffin was the birth of his son

[@lucario2188]

Even Charles Edward Stuart recognized the bad things done by his predeccesors in a public letter written in Edinbourgh were he defended the Jacobite cause. I think he ment to do well for the Gaelic since despite the advise of his advisors he in his declarations/Edicts dissolved the act of union in Edinbourgh. Also learned bit of gaelic enough to have some level of conversation with the highlanders.

[@pio4362]

You also raise a great point about the Stuarts being wishy-washy on the Gaelic/Celtic cause. Far from being its champions, during their time as King of Scots, they'd actually accelerated the anglicisation of Scotland. Had James I not displaced Gaelic speakers from certain islands and replaced them with lowland English speakers? All they had to show for themselves was a tenuous link to 11th century High King of Ireland, Brian Boru (his Latin title will interest Scots: 'Imperator Scotorum'). Its curious today how the French will accuse the British of being so alien, and vice-versa. Reality check: the English and French ruling classes shared the exact same French culture for much of the Middle Ages. Look at the English language, it still has an inferiority complex towards French, how do you think that happened? It was us, the Gaels who had the weird, unusual socioeconomic and cultural system, distinct from both powers (like Switzerland in today's Europe). High time we reminded people of these basic facts, and perhaps took a leaf out of Wales, Catalonia and Basque country's books and became serious about our native languages. "Tír gan teanga, tír gan anam"

[@dissapointingopinions4877]

James I was a Protestant, of course he was keen to settle English/Scottish Protestants in the Highlands and Ulster which were Catholic regions.

56:10 - From what I researched, according to national trust portraits, the picture on the left may not even be Bonnie Dundee though. Painted by Peter Lely in 1675, so Dundee would be 27 years old in that painting. Painting on the left looks like a 40-50 year old rather than a young man. It does have similarities to other portraits of Dundee however, who knows! 👀 interesting video however, enjoyed it.

[@landsea7332]

30:15 But the key point here is that when William of Orange and Mary II ascended the throne , during their Coronation Oath, in April 1689 , they swore to recognize the Sovereignty of Parliament . As the House of Commons was an elected body , this is the beginning of Democracy in the modern World . However , at the time , only land owners had the vote . Then in November , the 1689 English Bill of Rights passed . So James II ( VI ) was the last absolute Monarch , and William and Mary were the first Constitutional Monarchs . William was a miserable sod , who went along with this because his focus was having the English help the Dutch defeat the French . Then Enlightenment ideas started to be take hold - John Locke , Issac Newton , Adam Smith .

[@UtopiaPlanitiaStudios]

I hear you. 👍 The political, democratic and intellectual progress made during William and Mary’s reign is indeed considerable, but it’s not really the focus of this film… and it certainly wasn’t “the beginning of modern democracy”. Britain was actually pretty late to the party in terms of decentralising power from the monarch. That said, we go into considerable detail regarding the massive changes during William’s reign in the sequel, ‘Inglorious Revolutions II: Act of Union’ which you can watch here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nH3Xe518f8ifmposi=pBB2r0GDWzzb4q1y

Brilliant! really well detailed and you are a great storyteller. I do however wish that on 49 minutes, after The Battle of the Boyne part, that you could have spared a few seconds to mention the sieges of Athlone (my hometown, hence my disappointment in not getting a mention) in 1690 and 1691 and The Battle of Aughrim in 1691 which was a major battle before jumping straight to Limerick and the signing of the treaty. Having said that, I still thoroughly enjoyed this video.

[@UtopiaPlanitiaStudios]

You raise a good point; the subtitle should perhaps be ‘Explaining the _Scottish_ Jacobite Cause’. I’d have loved to include greater detail on the origins of the Stuarts, James VII’s Irish campaign and many other aspects of the history but in order to keep things moving at a decent pace such elements had to be reduced to the basic facts. _It is not my intention to ignore or trivialise the events in question_ .

[@nebojsag.5871]

Where was the question of land and enclosure in all of this?

[@UtopiaPlanitiaStudios]

The question of land ownership can't really be said to be a key factor in the origins of the Jacobite cause, but it would play a part later in its history. The early Jacobites were more concerned with matters such as succession and religion. However,the theft of highlanders' land comes up in 'Knives in the Dark' and elsewhere in the Glen Coe Saga. Enclosure was a later development that will be explored in future videos including the forthcoming 'Inglorious Revolutions II'.

[@nebojsag.5871]

@@UtopiaPlanitiaStudios Wasn't there a serious enclosure problem in England already at that time? I remember reading somewhere that Charles Stuart was the last king of England to stand in the way of encroaching enclosure in the English countryside, and that this is a big part of what got him killed by the nobility and a big reason why so many poor ordinary people supported him.

I think there are some bias around the glorious revolution. Although as said it wasn’t excepted as a whole but the GR was the nail in the coffin of monarch absolutism and the start of parliamentary supremacy which I think was ultimately a good thing

[@UtopiaPlanitiaStudios]

Thanks for watching and for your excellent comment. The progress made in the 1689 Bill of Rights - primacy of legislature over the executive- was definitely a good thing. The whole faux-invasion thing is what we’re ridiculing: William was forced to accept being constrained by Parliament to his great frustration. As mentioned in the film, the ideas the Jacobites espoused were on the wrong side of history. This progressive movement towards more democratic ways of government is expanded upon in Inglorious Revolutions: Act of Union which just went up last week. :)

It’s clear that a lot of effort has gone into this, and while you do briefly mention the Covenanters it is strange there was no mention of the period known as the killing times which saw Scottish Presbyterians persecuted under the reign of both Charles II and James II. I would have thought the uprisings of pentland, bothwell bridge and the Argyll / Monmouth rebellion would have been an important factor in the dwindling popularity of the Stuart regime. I can’t help but feel this is either due to bias or a massive oversight, although I suspect the former which is a shame for such an otherwise excellent production.

[@UtopiaPlanitiaStudios]

Thanks for watching. As I would hope the evenly-balanced humour suggests, there is no bias here other than towards the truth. I have no interest in pushing an agenda that favours either ‘side’. The reason is running time. I would have liked to add in a lot more details but the doc is already fairly expansive and to keep things on topic, some things have to be given priority over others. The persecution of Presbyterians by the latter Stuarts is important, but not absolutely vital to understanding the Jacobite cause. Argyll’s attempted insurrection is covered in our other videos ‘Guardians to Gallows Herd: MacIain and the MacDonalds of Glen Coe’ and ‘Knives In the Dark: Engineering the Glen Coe Massacre’. Again, thanks for your time and comment.

Let’s not forget also the Highlanders were descended from the Irish !

I'm confused. You state that it was a Scotish King (James 1st of England, 6th of Scotland) that created a divided Ireland, but you then blame the English for all the events that happened since.

[@UtopiaPlanitiaStudios]

James could only annexe Ulster because he was King of England, Scotland and Ireland. That he was Scottish is beside the point. Please explain where I “blame the English”. I state factually that the English/British establishment treated the Irish as subhumans in the ensuing centuries. Besides, Cromwell was English…

[@MarcInTbilisi]

@@UtopiaPlanitiaStudios It was yesterday that I watched your video so I'm replying from memory... Didn't you state that it was Scotish settlers who inhabited Northern Ireland under a Scotish King who also ruled England? Did I misunderstand? Cromwell was English and claims about his lack of vanity doesn't make him a good ruler but from what you said, this all happened before Cromwell, though he didn't improve the situation.

[@UtopiaPlanitiaStudios]

@MrMarccj The Scottish Lowlands and Borders were home to a great deal of Englishmen and women by this time. It is the British state that would continue James and Cromwell’s legacies of ignorance and prejudice towards the Irish and Catholicism. James didn’t come up with the idea of the Ulster plantation alone. The English Protestant establishment were also a major proponent - not primarily motivated by racism, but their hatred for the Catholic Irish, which of course soon became indistinguishable from racial prejudice… because that’s what it was.

[@UtopiaPlanitiaStudios]

Coming in hot there chief. I think you’re confusing ‘forgot’ with ‘not the subject of the video’. James II was on the throne in the fifteenth century. If I was to include the entire history of the Stuarts the video would be several hours long and be way off-topic - which is the events that led to the Jacobite cause. Cromwell’s Irish campaign is described in the video. Perhaps you should actually watch it all before claiming someone is “blinkered”.

[@joelhaffey6068]

You know exactly that James Stuart the 2nd of England was the one who persecuted and killed far more covenanters (take the prison yard in Edinburgh alone) than King William and following rulers ever killed of the highlanders! As for your detail covered on Cromwell, you forgot to tell how many protestants were slaughtered in the 1641 Rebellion, anywhere between 100,000 and 300,000! By the way you can try and pass it off as being a "war" against settlers but it's strange that England had rulers and citizens in Ireland from the 13th century (king John's castle in carling ford) but yet they were never persecuted and slaughtered! The Church of Rome and Jacobites didn't want civil and religious liberty which was eventually passed in parliament hence the name given Glorious Revolution which meant that the king could not decide where you worship!

He died by hanging himself from a bed post ,similar to judas. Britain has lust filled Henry VIII to thank for England's apostasy.

Do you believe everything you read? Those are fatuous and highly subjective summations, some might say disingenously presented in order to cast shade on Catholic dissenters. Perhaps a more empirical approach to history is the key to understanding it.

[@pio4362]

Its funny how the English have mythologized the Williamite war so much (aka "glorious revolution"). Yeah, "bloodless" sure, completely ignoring all the warfare that took place on their next door Irish colony when it is convenient. And yeah, bringing "parliamentary supremacy" when it is an institution packed with unelected aristocrats (ie Whigs). Even English conservative historian Andrew Roberts freely admits in his book "Napoleon the Great", that there was very little democratic about the 18th century British parliament. And as for Catholic monarchs uniquely attached to absolutism? They haven't studied Joseph II of Austria/Holy Roman Empire, in that case, he was a big reformer. The Whigs (who wrote the histories) made up a lot of damn lies, and via the Victorians and the influence of the British Empire, they've unfortunately been with us ever since. If any American wants to learn where the WASP supremacy complex comes from or indeed understand the roots of Brexit, all they need do is study the 16th and 17th centuries, its all there. Of course, the Stuarts weren't saints or great friend of Ireland either. James I colonized Ulster, leaving a mess that still haunts us today. Upon taking the English throne, he quickly became an English nationalist. As the Scottish know only too well today, London has that effect on people. Warm regards to Scotland from Ireland. Your day will come :)

[@UtopiaPlanitiaStudios]

[@pio4362]

​@@UtopiaPlanitiaStudios Fair play on your fine presentation, it must have taken some time to put together. I was recommended your video after watching a few from 'Scotland History Tours'. One thing I'd push back on: the use of the terms totalitarian and fascist. Though those extreme ideologies have earlier roots, they were very much 20th century phenomena, which made use of the latest technology to bring death counts and state control to previously unimaginable levels. When we debate the monarchs of this Early Modern Era, or indeed Roman Emperors for that matters, we should keep in mind that all we're doing is assessing which autocrats were effective and which were not. Only in the 19th cen do we truly have a paradigm change, where constitutions are sweeping Europe, and the electoral franchise is expanding. The idea the British monarch immediately became powerless in 1690 is a nice myth. The House of Lords still held enormous veto power up until around 1900, and they got their seats the same way the Stuarts got their thrones: primogeniture. So let's not kid ourselves into suggesting anybody is democratic in the 17th century. As you point out, the Highland clans were in a desperate situation, why should they fear a powerful French monarch any more than a powerful English one? As we see in modern elections, sometime you vote for who you dislike least.

[@barra6709]

I think it's Unionists in Northern Ireland that have enshrined the event in myth more than the English. They wrote themselves a bigger part than they played and put the Battle of the Boyne as the centerpiece even thought it was the Battle of Aughrim that was the most crucial even in the war. The English don't dwell on the religious aspect whereas the Protestant Unionism celebrate it as a triumph over Catholic aggression. In reality it was to ensure the continued vile persecution of Irish Catholics under penal laws.

The Stuart Kings descended from the line of King Robert the Bruce and Robert the second. Yet the Stuart were pro English Dominion under an English Government and Protestant Church, despite the bloody war, though it was the family of the Black Knight, The good Sir James Douglas, and when that family, and of whom I belong stood behind the Stuart Kings to keep them from setting so many English Lords over Scotland the Then Black Douglas was slain by the boy King of the Stuarts and his body thrown from a window from Stirling Castle. The King handed the titles and powers of this powerful family over to the Hamiltons, and the illigitimate Red Douglas family mostly landless with Tantalin Castle, while my ancestors were to become landless and in hiding as the mandate of the Union was thrown over the nation of Scotland. From then on Scotland was torn apart and most of Scotland and Ireland were persecuted and enslaved to the new world plantations in Canada, America, Australia and New Zealand. My ancestors sought the Sanctuary of the Church and the early sanctuary of the Holy orders of the Scots surviving Knights Temple and Hospitilliars of Saint John. After that the Jacobean age came to be and Bonny Prince Charlie as insipid and foolish military decisions brought down the Highlanders of Scotland. Thus our Scottish INDEPENDENCE MOVEMENT working in hiding. And survived William of Orange a Dutch Cancer on our country and Scotland had survived, butchered by the German Monarchy George 1 etc, etc,. landless, exploited and raped time and again to this very day. Scotland had hoped that the capture of Edinburgh that Charles would close the border, reclaim the throne and leave England to its own. This was not to be, though thousands were slaughtered, hanged drawn or exiled with a land clearance that continued up to 1940 when Hitler Uboats closed this uncouth disgrace. Though in the 1950's the Tory Party created a migration scheme at just £10 a ticket to entice millions more poverty stricken Scots and Irish to see a better life in the withering Colonies. Long our people have suffered under English Dominion, though many still believed in the 1320 vow that as long as 100 Scots remain alive, that never again would we remain under English dominion. The vow remains in the hearts and minds of Patriots to this day.

A little bit one sided. You do not mention attrocities on civilians during deep raids by James Douglas and the earl of Moray and indeed the Bruce himself . Not the battle which was more of a route and slaughter of priests and lay clergy. I'm a proud Scot and one of a dying breed I'm a native Gael speaker. The history of most countries is not a tale of peace and plenty. I would have voted for independent Scotland had devolution not happened. The Scottish parliament can pass primary legislation and has a very large amount of control on internal Scottish affairs. Some sort of cooperation with English would be required in defence and by extension forigen policy.

Lots of opinion and not so much history.

[@UtopiaPlanitiaStudios]

It would be hard to fit in any _more_ history. If by ‘opinion’ you mean humorous asides, these are shared out equally and at no point do I present any point of view as the ‘correct’ one. Part IV broadly summarises current academic understanding and is in no way controversial.

[@jmichaelortiz]

Good but beware the handling of religious history here is horrendously awful.

[@UtopiaPlanitiaStudios]

Is it though? Or can you just not take a joke?

When will England remember her Merry ol'soul and rightfully return herself to Our Blessed Mother, where she belongs. All of Britannia IS Mary's Dowry. Remember thy glory O England, the Jewel of The Ancient Church and all of Christendom. *+DEVS VVLT*

Oh jeez, not another one. Perhaps you should learn the difference between ‘Jacobite’ and ‘Jacobin’ before deploying the crying laughter emoji five times.

The jacobites were black. King James was black.

With respect, take this nonsense somewhere else please.

For every dollar he paid for an African slave he could make $1000. That's why King James Bible teaches when someone smites your right cheek offer them your left cheek. As a way to get slaves to submit using force & religion. Black on black crime back then- from the King down to the eunuch slave the black Muslim sultans preferred- especially the white slavics where the word slave originated.

James 6 was probably about one third french one third English and one third Scots. His mother was half french his father Anglo Scot. His grandmother was Mary of guise his grandfather was James the 5. No where is there any chance of anything but a complicated clan and European royalty . His line can be reliably trased back to alfred the great the Angevin kings and to Walter the high steward of Scotland who married the Bruce daughter from his first marriage and thus has very distant links to the Gaelic monarchy.

I've read afrocentrics claiming that the Jews, Egyptians, Vikings, Japanese, Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, Irish, Aztecs, Incas, Maya were all black. Now we wuz Jacobeens and shiet.

"life is suffering" please read the new testament the you might understand that salvation is a free gift from God, then maybe you will be able to interpretate History more accurately, your presentation is professional but your understanding is lacking

[@UtopiaPlanitiaStudios]

Sigh. I have, it’s not particularly well written though. My understanding of history is just fine. Your ability to take a joke, or realise when you’re being rude and patronising, however, is apparently rather dysfunctional. Do you think the character of Jesus would have such a condescending attitude towards people as you’ve displayed here? Cause that’s not how he’s written. Live and let live man. Thanks for watching.

[@douglasfindlay3497]

you have said yourself you are theologically weak, If you dont understand the doctrines of the reformation you dont understand the issues

[@UtopiaPlanitiaStudios]

“theologically weak”… jeez, do you read what you type? Summing puritanism up in the way I did was clearly tongue in cheek. If you need this to be explained to you, that’s maybe where your problem with it lies. If you are suggesting that an encyclopaedic knowledge of religious doctrine has any bearing one’s’ ability to understand and interpret history, however, you are greatly and demonstrably mistaken.
