Basically what happened with Dantes, he came home after a long time with a letter for the king of France from his dead captain. When some dudes that wanted his ship, status, and fiancé strolled up and figured, "Hey what if we say he's a spy and that he was gonna give that letter with state secrets from the captain and give it to napoleon, and then they'll throw him in Château d'If, (Pardon my French, failed it twice), and boom instant profit.", then he escaped around fourteen years later out the body bag of a holy man, priest, preacher, I don't remember, and did the avenger stuff as the Count of Monte Christo

@@michaelmcdoesntexist1459 Thing is, jokes aside putting him in jail was more profitable and easier than killing him, one guy would've gotten arrested, the boat would go to the next in command, and his money would've went to his father/Fiancé. Putting him in jail meant that his belongings would be pretty much up for grabs.

[@michaelmcdoesntexist1459]

@@cupdrinker678 Yeah, it was just a joke. Still, it would be better to kill him. Danglars was the first choice for Morrel to fill Dantes' job anyway and Mercedes would cry for her fiance as she did anyway but would marry the same. For Villefort, Dantes was a fly, he had no status. He was a simple man, good as a sailor, enough to be promoted in a modest company but nothing more. He just happened to be a fly who could, inadvertently, linked him with the revolutionaries. But the fact is that the three of them were cowards, no monsters. They would not have the guts to kill a man. Not at that point anyway.

An interesting fact about Dracula he is most likely not based on the historical Vlad Tepes Dracula and the idea that he was created by movies and later adaptations of the book and character The only real connection between the two is their name and the fact they are both from Romania ,but the problem with this is that Vlad was the ruler of Walachia not Transylvania and according to Stoker's notes the only reason he chose the name is because Dracula means the Devil in Romanian also some early drafts of the book even have the character called Count Vampyr instead of Dracula

[@Nurple17]

Edmond Dantes was not necessarily a pro- Bonaparte-ist. He did admire the things he did for France, but never cared for the man, personally. The real reason why Dantes was imprisoned was because (continued) ... spoilers below... . . . . He was an unwitting accomplice to be used to engineer Napoleon's escape from his exile on the island nation of Elba, plotted by Napoleon and the Crown Prosecutor's estranged father (Napoleon's confidant). As a way of preventing any personal embarrassment and professional backlash against them, the Crown Prosecutor, armed with 2 additional false statements from Dantes' traitorous ex best friend and a rival from within the same shipping company from where he worked, had sent Dantes to a privately owned political prison for the crimes of treason and aiding Bonaparte. They also made another false statement to Dantes' fiance, Mercedes that Dantes was executed so she wouldn't go looking for him. Also, fun fact, the author of The Count of Monte Cristo, Alexander Dumas, used the work to also publish his disdain for Italian cooking, with Dantes and other characters describing their hatred for Italian cuisine.

[@michaelmcdoesntexist1459]

Just to expand a bit, Mondego wasn't Dantes' ex friend and rival, he was just a jealous, hopeless childhood friend of Mercedes who hated Dantes for being reciprocated by the girl he was obsessed with. The friendship/rivalry part was added later in adaptations, but the only reason Dantes somehow tolerates Mondego at the start instead of punching him is because Mercedes, but he makes clear he can't stand the guy. Faria was an abate before a prisoner. Basically, the director of a monastery so yes, he was a priest.

1:36 aaaaa hearing that as someone from Quebec is really funny! I had to ask my dad if he knew what it meant, since I had never heard it, and it's less a show of amazement and more like,,,, saying "oh shit" when you see something cool? Like it specifically is supposed to replace a swear. In more modern times (and by modern i mean like,,,,,, last 60-70ish years?) it's been replaced with "tabernack" which is the french word for a tabernacle, the "bread" you eat during mass (yes the french quebec people really took "you shall not use the lord's name in vain" to it's logical conclusion and made almost all church words into makeshift swears, one of them is even chalice, pronounced "cow-liise", so we've even turned the holy grail into a swear!) This is a great video!!!! I've loved this whole series, some of these things I already knew, but it's fun to learn more about each of these servants ww

[@mattman1684]

Quebec gang represent! Bonus to everyone reading, the swear words used in Quebec coming from religious iconography comes from the fact that the church had a very solid grasp of society up to about the mid 1960s, and after La Révolution Tranquille (The Calm/Peaceful Revolution) bringing about social and cultural changes throughout the province, the mentioned iconography became widely used as swearing because of the many people who became fed up with the church's power.

So I looked it up and from what I could find, Iyo DOES exist in the historical record. I can't be 100% sure since I'm basing it on wikipedia (I tried look at the sources provided at the bottom of the article, but I did not want to comb through potentially hundreds of pages to find one or two sentences to further corroborate) but I think Iyo is supposed to be Queen Toyo, the queen that took over not directly after Himiko, but after the male emperor which the people rejected. The article mentions that Toyo was also called Iyo.

For the Japanese part there's history of same sex relationships, but for ancient Japanese sex wasn't a identity it was just something they did.

[@michaelmcdoesntexist1459]

Is still one entity (kinda), just like different servants are summoned on different variations of themselves. Koyanskaya of Darkness is closer to how she actually is (the one we fought the whole time). Koyanskaya of Light is more akin to a variation of a servant based on legend. Think about it like the difference between Antonio Salieri (a normal man, a talented composer and friend of Mozart) and the Avenger Servant (full innocent monster because of a movie). Or the difference between a real historical Napoleon and the "Man of Possibilities) we met in Scandinavia.
