Private school as well. I'm pretty sure History is taught the same everywhere, atleast pre-BLM movement. Probably a much more tricky subject, these days, or in the years to come. Although, let's be honest, our history classes teach the very pro-white euro version of things. Leaving off a whollllle lot of who was here before whites arrived, how advanced those peoples actually were, and how much we just straight up stole their worlds, killed them off, and tried to write off their existence. Check out 1491 and 1493, both by Charles Mann. He does an amazing job painting a mental picture of how America was before the arrival of Euros.

All the facts he had there were actually very accurate. Mostly glossed over, but even things that sound like jokes such as Columbus finding Japan and the French making a religion out the revolution is accurate if you look into the deeper histories of each part. Even the initial fast paced thing about "every" is an accurate - although glossed over - version of an explanation of 4 dimensional space time being a function of waves on a set of 4 dimensional force planes. My favourite glossed over part is the quick explanation of the most wealthy man to ever live going on a tour of the known world.

We already have algorithms that can "program" themselves, and create better iterations of their own version. It's not too far off in the horizon, at any rate.

Some things are interpretations though, like when he directly compares the 7 Years War with WW1, while actually, the 7 Years War was almost nothing in terms of scale even compared to the Napoleonic Wars (and to some degree, compared to the 30 Years War). I know it's because the 7 Years War had varied theaters around the world (like some previous wars too (the War of the Grand Alliance, and the War of the Spanish Succession), and to some degree the Napoleonic Wars too), but it's better to remember this war for what it was, comparing what's comparable. I'm just nitpicking on a detail though, it's a fantastic video.

@@Past_10 Well its all theories. how do you know it was asteroids?. I just happen to follow along with astronomy, cause it fascinates me. and thats the current most plausible theory on how the earth and other planets got their water. Planets like mars never developed ozone, or couldnt maintain it, so the water all either froze in the poles, or evaporated away over millions of years. We tho have ozone, which stops alot of the rays that causes the atmosphere to heat up, expalnding, thus losing gas/water vapors. It makes alot more sense than jsut. some rocks feel and somehow had trillions of gallons of water on them.

Each pyramid took roughly 20 years to build, but just like with any construction project, different parts were completed at different times, and some bits were added or modified later. Overall, the whole thing as we understand it, including stuff like the sphinx, took around one century to build, give or take a few years, and not including later modifications. There are other pyramids that are much older than the ones found in Egypt, but even the oldest of the Egyptian pyramids dates only to the 2600's BC.

I was 18 in high school when this came out and for me as someone who is Generation Z, history of the world I guess actually kept my attention and kept me interested and I was able to pick up everything (I just like fast paced things in general also). I think this definitely works for like people around my age or in my generation because our attention spans are a bit shorter maybe, and we need things a bit faster. Or we need our information given to us in a fast paced manner to keep us engaged. It works well for me and others in my peer/age group (21 now).

[@Kigamine]

right? also gen z (20) and if learning was as fun as watching this video then i would have had a much better time in school. the focus of making learning boring and straight forward needs to change, learning can be fun. i know watching bill nye was one of the highlights in science class.

[@nikibronson133]

@@Kigamine agreed. We didn't watch Bill nye as I think that was more 90s kids then 2000s /2010s kids like us but clearly some school still used it as you stated and I've see a couple eps on KZbin and they are very entertaining. We mainly used CrashCourse, Thugnotes, and Kahoot

[@Kigamine]

@@nikibronson133 yeah where i live we used all those aswell (the hype for kahoot lol teachers would say we wont be able to do kahoot if ppl didnt settle down) but we also watched old 90s kids things and ever "danger zone" videos for health class. i got a mix of both worlds.

Yes an entire generation has a short attention span.

@Kate A hamilton > world history sincerely, a teenager who has hamilton memorized

[@klikbate8916]

@Kate A well i think hamilton is a lot more easy to memorize than thousands of years of world history, not to mention that if anyone has to memorize all of this it's most likely for school rather than for fun i didn't notice the history connection at all, i thought you were getting at the fact that teenagers today memorize things they like, to which i agree

[@mr.c.classified1021]

Not gonna lie, I literally got switched to a World History class midsemester from an elective with a mentally abusive teacher but a big test was coming up. Watching the original video actually got me a decent grade on that test XD

[@NickPR87]

Years later this is still one of the most educational, fun videos on the internet!

[@sample.text.]

This video would go down really well in a middle/high school history class. Watch the whole video in class.. Then dissect it accordingly depending on curriculum and subject matter.

This is accurate. Even the part at the start with the white background if you understand it. If you're a teacher, you should show this to kids, cause it's fast enough that it keeps kids attention =)

This is more educating than listening to my teacher talk for two hours with no breaks allowed because of COVID. It closed recently because of increased cases. I like seeing teachers reacting, I like teachers, it is a really hard job. I has a summer job at an infant age section of a playschool and it is hard. They were 1-3.

[@6666Imperator]

just would like to say that that "beaver" thing was actually pretty important because at that time many pelt animals in Europe were getting pretty rare due to the over-hunting for pelt clothes so they continued doing that in America to ship it over :) the other thing is: I think bronze is not a metal its an alloy consisting of copper and tin but hey small details like that are fine for me looking at the fact that its in total pretty accurate and A LOT

[@spensershort5200]

I don't know much about metallurgy, but I thought it could be both an alloy and a metal..?

[@BlueBenGo]

An alloy is a metal.

[@volbla]

Ah, that's true. An alloy is a mix of a metal and other stuff (possibly other metals). I don't think a chemist would still call that "a metal" but that's a very fine distinction in that case.

[@wizzrobotix2379]

This vid is really creative made; the fact that he talks so fast, makes him get so much info into it that it feels longer than it actually is. ^_^ Would have lasted much longer if he spoke in normal speed, and in fact, playing the vid in that speed makes it easier to see and hear all being said. -Especially the dates/year connecting the events, since they pop up only for fraction of seconds and are easy to miss.

Honestly videos like this just show me that as long as you find a very fun and engaging way to teach something, students are more likely to enjoy said topic and may even look into themselves outside of class. More teachers should really try this, it would make school a lot more enjoyable for not only students but them too.

The only Error I can find is that Israel didn't become a state until after WW2 in 1948. (he's sort of right in the fact that jews started coming back under British rule but it wasn't given over yet.)

[@ezequielmartinez556]

It´s not an error per se, the League of Nations ( the organism created after WWI and the predecesor of the UN) created the British Mandate for Palestina, which served as a first attempt to give the jews a place for themtoo, to be respected by the rest of the world. Then the UN divided Palestina, and so Israel was born.

[@michadonald]

Like I said it wasn't given over yet. it was still under British rule. It's sort of like Canada During the war of 1812, there were people there who would later become Canadians, but weren't yet.

[@ezequielmartinez556]

@@michadonald well, but the author of the video never speaks of Israel at that point, just "so we can give the jewish people a place to live", which is historically accurate as I mentioned. And the star of David is a symbol long used before that, so its appearence in the video isn´t either wrong.
