Goli Otok deserves an episode. Like Bastille, that prison island was the symbol of oppression of a regime.

[@chrislittle2366]

That would be a great one it was Tito's private prison for anyone he didn't like but you are absolutely correct both were autocratic tyrannical regimes

[@chrislittle2366]

Pitesti prison would be a good one

[@chrislittle2366]

And doftana prison as well

@@jennyanydots2389 that's a hefty accusation, what proof can u provide

[@catherinedunsmuir8118]

The Hundred Years War was not a religious war. Basically it was due to the succession to the French Crown after the death of Charles IV in 1328.

[@kaltaron1284]

I can't help it but mentioning the Bastille always reminds me of ベルサイユのばら (Versailles no Bara = The Rose of Versailles/Lady Oscar)

[@MSjackiesaunders]

What's with the sarcasm? Our history in the US is no less a quagmire of theory, myth, and exaggeration.

I'm seeing a lot of hate comments, and I don't want to contribute to that, because this was interesting. However, I would recommend having a native speaker check your pronunciation guide. Pronunciations were way off

[@evelyntodd9946]

I find it ridiculous that people want Simon back. Simon has moved on. Now it is time for his fans to move to his new channels. Also if you want KARL back get the name right. I would love to see Karl do Top 10 but I will enjoy any of them doing the videos.

[@vincentlospinuso7232]

What is Simon doing now?

[@BurningheartofSILVER]

🙋What he asked ^

[@seanpurcell1292]

The only reason this channel has a following is because of simon its more than okay for people to want him back
