Messing up Modern History with Bad Translations | StarvHarv | History Teacher Reacts

[@MrTerry]

Let's build a HE lore archive down below. Add what you know!

[@P8_Polak]

I am he, only he, because I am not him

[@kanikakundu]

HE lore is REAL

[@safwanullahkhan2135]

He was born in the Ottoman Empire 300 yrs ago

[@TheManInBlueFlames]

He was ALSO born in 1990 in Lithuania.

[@midnight_rap_battles]

HE is the king of Crete with a british uniform, he likes Estonia and summoned the Estonian army to destroy the soviet empire. HE also remarried in Great Britain during WW1, he died twice in that war, once in a lava battle in Austro-Hungarian land. HE attacked Theobald Von Bateman-Hallwegger. HE went to central Africa after fighting in Britain and France during the Christmas War. HE founded London in Belgium. HE was born 3 times, once in Spain, once in the Ottoman Empire and once in Lithuania, there is a lot more info on HE but this is what i remember. ADDED INFO: HE is also the youngest son of the soviet revolution, HE was also still smiling in Azerbaijan during their independence. HE has been to Kyrgysztan. HE gained indepence from Latvia and Lithuania. HE divided England into a republic of all duties. Last May, HE paved the way for the restoration of Cambodia. HE was there for 8 years after the army invaded Iraq. He ruled Azawad from Ansongo, the largest and last town in the Azawad Autonomous Province. HE traveled from Bujumbura to Gitega, the capital of Burundi. HE participated in World War I and the Civil War. HE defeated the Armenian army. HE made 10 orbits of the moon before returning to Earth and arriving in the US at New Armstrong Airport, HE was the first astronaut to land on another planet, and has played this game twice. HE lead the team to failure in Cambodia. HE was convicted of crimes against humanity and war crimes in Argentina.

[@stesnuash8986]

"HE reduced Armenia to 41 square kilometers" Makes sense. HE was born in the Ottoman Empire after all

[@eroth1008]

Specifically, he was born in Spain, Ottoman Empire, Lithuania

[@Luxcalibur]

@@eroth1008 HE is a proud citizen of the Polith-Lithuanian-Spanish-Ottoman Commonwealth

[@kidfox3971]

He reduced Armenia to 41 people

[@untitled01711]

Plot twist: HE is Ilham AliHev

[@Hand-in-Shot_Productions]

@@untitled01711 That would make sense, since Aliyev is the sort of person who would want to reduce Armenia to an area of 41 square kilometers!

[@adeafault2352]

I love how he puts hoi4 music when it mentions ww2 and stellaris music when it mentions the future

[@TokerJoker420]

You mean modern warfare 2 music

[@inspector_beyond]

And Civilization music for HE and French tourist lore.

[@NapoleonBonaparte-ix5ir]

And "All Stars Burn as One" when mentioning the Republic

[@adeafault2352]

​@franciscorobles4674 at 7:47 when mentioning 9/11, when it says "in 2996", the music that plays is from stellaris. Specifically "battle for supremacy" 13 seconds in. (link for anyone who wants it)- kzbin.info/www/bejne/oqmYqKelhbSUfdEsi=mj68cOCNs0qL6Mkf

[@TheIT221]

It’s awesome

[@VeryMuchCraft]

4:18 We know HE is responsible for the collapse of the Soviet Union because in WW2 he summoned the Estonian army to destroy the Soviet Empire.

[@requiemlul3140]

It’s also important that it said STILL smiling because he also was the youngest son of the communist revolution.

[@VeryMuchCraft]

@@requiemlul3140 In the WW2 vid, the Soviet Union is a part of Poland, so did He actually cause Poland to lose most of it's territory?

[@Elyseon]

He needs to summon the Estonian army again to destroy Putin.

[@bnedi98]

14:49 the best thing: This is the date when Swaziland changed its name to Eswatini to NOT be confused with Switzerland anymore. Now the translation took that and decided to change it to Switzerland.

[@warbacca1017]

My favorite HE theory comes from a comment suggesting that HE is Theodore Roosevelt in an alternate universe where he gets superpowers.

[@langdonledwig3734]

Or this guy Empedocles of Akragas who jumped into a volcano then went on to become Theodore Roosevelt then who became he

[@sakul_the_one4821]

Ghandi when he gets nukes

[@hakced]

that.... makes sense

[@olegkupran5284]

His goals are beyond our understanding. It's quite obvious, that He purposefully put himself on the spotlight, while She works in shadows

[@isthiscamy]

Behind every great man there is a great, albeit dirtier-haired, woman.

[@nobleconsejera5278]

That’s a good point

[@alfAlfredo-bf3hq]

I like Mr Terry's basic adoption of He lore. I'm a bit skeptical about how many places *he* was born in.

[@Michele_PoeTreeWitch]

HE was busy!

[@MorkiMoo]

HE has played this game twice before, so I bet these notes of HIS birth are just him respawning or something

[@p3chv0gel22]

​@@MorkiMooi mean, HE died like 12 times during WW1, so yeah

[@eroth1008]

​@@p3chv0gel22No, he died twice in ww1, already played this game twice, and was born 3 times The numbers match up

[@Underworlder5]

@@eroth1008 so he reincarnates?

[@johankaewberg8162]

He does some wild things, like being born multiple times, but He has a reason for all of his actions, unknown to us. I hope She can step in a bit more.

[@SageEternal]

I’m going with He being like an anime character. For an example every few hundred years. He has to keep rebirthing hisself in different location as a deal with a God/Devil. And he can die and come back if he is Injured/Killed. Making He a Forrest Grump immortal type character.

[@willzhang1936]

I just realized -he was born in 3 different places -he has played this game twice -this is his third play through

[@ak74udieby]

We're all NPCs in His world

[@LexusLFA554]

I was waiting for this since it was released. May HE raise even stronger. My birthday 2022 got screwed up badly.

[@mankyswan]

THEORY: There are multiple HEs, all with different amounts of strength. They all come from a long lineage of powerful warriors fighting in multiple conflicts throughout world history. How else would HE have died and been born in multiple places and multiple times? The HE family always has a head at any given time, the head of the family is the one who fights and when one dies the family choose a new HEAD HE to fight. It is a robust system that has kept strong for thousands of years.

[@qoombert]

that's somewhat similar to my theory, but this is more detailed

[@Icy-lk2ts]

I wonder what cold war He did to get so powerful then.

[@jaredjosephsongheng372]

This makes sense because it says He played this game twice

[@abderahmandj3845_muslim]

Nah its he not they

[@Michele_PoeTreeWitch]

I absolutely love your conversational style in your videos. I would have been very happy being a student in your class. Have you talked to your students about HIM?

[@anthonyminimum]

4:08 maybe, however, HE was named the youngest son of the Soviet Revolution in Sri Lanka and completely abandoned it by attacking the Soviet union, overthrowing the communist government in Grenada, overthrow the Cuban army, and prevented the Soviets from building a nuclear factory in Granada

[@szariq7338]

5:17 The translation wasn't that off. In fact the last troops of then-Russian Federation left Poland in 1993 from the town of Legnica and because this town accomodated the commanders of Soviet contingent meant to march west up to now it's called "small Moscow".

[@Hand-in-Shot_Productions]

I found both StarvHarv's video and yours to be quite entertaining! According to Google Translate, Ireland voted against Soviet occupation, Ukraine is running Hebei, England is a "republic of all duties", Prigo wound up in Bosnia and Herzegovina (I though Pringles was on the plane), Andalusia is independent (and as per the Kremlin, so is the University of Nevada, Reno), and South Sudan voted in a headache-causing referendum! Also, HE is quite entertaining, as always. Thanks for making this!

[@cauldron938]

HE is literally everywhere now. God damn.

[@spizun]

This series gets more and more like the Monument Mythos each episode

[@syockit]

Never understood how the destruction of the world would have come after the maritime agreement when I watched the original video, but after you drew the similarity with ancient Greece and Egypt, it all made sense.

[@Jan_Koopman]

"Has anyone been keeping track of the He lore? Better make sure you do that!" Well, I guess, since you asked and I already suggested I might do it... I guess I'll binge that channel and write down all He lore. I'll see when I got time...

[@ChemicalBad96]

People should be well educated on HE. I need a three page essay on HE to be published asap!

[@expiredgatorade1999]

As a new subscriber, I am excited to see the future collections on the lore of He.

[@Keldor314]

HE is the player character, in the Bethesda game "World History". HE's running around doing all the various faction quests.

[@exposedbrainfilms7897]

The AI is complaining of headaches from trying to translate all this.

[@SageEternal]

[@Joni_Tarvainen]

2:15 is kinda accurate one 'cause that day the treaty for giving the power back to Germany was written after the division ended and Germany got to unify.

[@oliversherman2414]

Did anyone else hear the Hoi4 music when he mentioned WW2?

[@chaos-soldier]

StarvHarv uploaded new videos!

[@atomsk01]

Loved the original video AND this video!The Metal Gear Solid 2 music is a nice touch.

[@nonchip]

looked it up at 4:00, Adrabigania is the latinized name of Azerbaijan. as in "what the catholic church would call it nowadays in a document they have to write in 'ancient' latin". that explains a lot of where the grammar went if they let both ancient and "modern churchish" latin into the mix, ideally if "detect language" then goes "oh sure, italian, i know that one" half the time :P

[@perturbedbatman2009]

I think the “2996” number was referring to the number of people who died on 9/11.

[@noone33736]

Wow....

[@jaredjosephsongheng372]

It's indeed correct

[@ukraineballaviation1483]

Including the 19 hijackers

[@MicrowavedAlastair5390]

One of my favorite school staff in high school was a refugee from Sudan. If memory serves, he actually fought in some official capacity, escaped to safety in America, and became one of the high school student body's favorite security guards. He dealt with horrible PTSD and the deaths of loved ones, but managed to overcome a lot of that and would often be singing cheerfully as we entered every day. Helped me start dealing with my own PTSD. Last I knew he was still working at the school, but it's been a couple of years since any of us were in school. Little sister just came off her second year of college to take a surgery break because her sunken chest was in dire need of fixing. Anyway, the point being that Mr. Seif (pronounced safe) was a great guy to be around. Also very happy that someone else knows their Thera lore.

[@Miroslava_Ivanova]

I think I'd like to see a video like this on the crusades, idk why,but that was the first thing that popped into my head when thinking about what other events StarvHarv can make a video on 😅

Hope we get some more She lore too

And we did almost immediately after starting the video 😂

[@castform57]

So HE has played this game at least twice, so maybe he was first born in Spain under the Ottoman empire, and later in Lithuania.

[@bus6292]

Don't feel too bad, Terry. The Mrs Butterworth commercials where the bottle came to life scared the hell out of me as a kid in the 1970's

HE was born in Lithuania in 1990. HE smiled in Adrabigania in 1991. HE gained independence from Latvia and Lithuania in 1991. HE devided England in 1991 into the Republic of England. HE restored Cambodia in May 1993. HE was the first Afghan leader to be captured by the Taliban in 1994. HE was in Iraq from 2002 to 2010 after the army invaded.

HE defeated the armenian army in 2021.

If you can accurately compile all the HE lore maybe this will happen?

[@TimeKitt]

I wonder if there's a particular translation that really wants to simplify away proper nouns when there's a gender particle in a certain relation, and of course many language want every noun to be gendered, and not every language fits that inside the noun. Subjects, objects, and verbs are getting shuffled most steps, so it's a coinflip if anything gets reversed.
