The guy in the video kinda glossed over how cruel the British were, and also glossed over how a tiny army beat the whole British army into a ceasefire using geurilla warfare, and actually revolutionising how that tactic was worth.

[@XXXTENTAClON227]

You can’t fight an entire army with guerrilla warfare. That’s not how it works. Guerrilla warfare is simply blending in with civilians while actually being a soldier, aka using them as human shields. Then, when the inevitable unjustified murder happens, they blame the people who shot them dead, thus you gain more recruits even though you just used their family as human shields. And in todays age, it is borderline unbeatable because international opinion will plummet due to modern media/journalism and so will the army and its morale. For example, in the Boer Wars they just stuck them in camps instead. That doesn’t work however when cameras and journalists are watching. Additionally, you said the entire British Army. Considering that it’s not even acknowledged as a war by historians & that they had reached their maximum size for the biggest empire in history, I doubt you even managed to fight 5% of their army let alone 100%. They were also quite literally at war with Afghanistan after WW1, and in conflict in the Middle East every year afterwards.

@@svendinsvinderlin4569 true but I think he was looking specifically into the history as to why the north and republic are split, not a general history of Ireland, while Britain is involved in the story of the famine and why it had such an impact on Ireland, it isn’t explicitly connected to the split

[@svendinsvinderlin4569]

@@benislazy9569 I mean.... The famine was a pretty decent part of why Ireland left the UK in the first place. Ludwig makes it sound like it's just petty national pride even though England basically committed genocide on our people.

My last semester I had a "British civilisation from its creation to Brexit" course and yet I feel like I've learned more in this video than in those months

Do more of these since you somehow make history sound so easy to digest.

I'm really bad at identifying accents, what accent does the narrator have?
