📜 Welcome Extra Historians to our Little Ice Age Lies video! Where we talk about the mistakes we made and the details we couldn't quite squeeze into our Little Ice AgeSeries. With questions like, Was Hansel and Gretel actually a historical event? Why didn't people just turn to fishing if crops were failing? Will we hear more about the Little Belt and Great Belt of Denmark?

And I get to share it with other people who usually wouldn't want to know about these themes. Like, many of my friends had terrible experiences with History class in school. They remember nothing about it. They left school with little knowledge of History in general. Your videos are perfect for them. They are funny, witty in humour, and so easy to just watch and absorb. It's like just watching cartoons.

During the famine years of the mid 19th century, a local official reported to the Russian Emperor that the peasants in Finland were starving out of spite to avoid paying taxes. There was food in the rest of the empire, but the famine was not taken seriously.

I heard the same thing, excpet it wasn't the Russian officials it was the Swedish ones back in 18th or 17th century. Finland was an autonomic part of the Russian empire and the Finnish senators mostly Snellman handled the famine poorly. I checked it from Yle news back in 2017

Yeah it was the famine in the 1690s and it was Swedish, not Russian officials who said that. The 1690s famine was actually much worse in terms of population loss than the more recent Russian era-famine. As many as one in three Finns died within just a few years.

The sun is radioactive, even in the ionising way. Not all the atomic nuclei that are produced as a result of fusion are stable. During certain solar events, the sun even gives of large bursts of gamma rays (and even outside of that, gamma rays have been detected). To say its powered by fission is wholly inaccurate, but to say its radioactive isn't.

Late 1800s migration from Scandinavia to the United States is a really cool subject. I'm just here to recommend the musical Kristina (original title Kristina från Duvemåla), and the Emigrants book series by Moberg it's based on. Historical fiction but based on a bunch of diaries, letters and stories from migrants and their descendants. The musical adaptation is amazing, but sadly never struck gold (heh) in America because of a poor translation and a legal battle over it (iirc the show creators, the Bs of ABBA, were unhappy with the original translation and hired someone to fix it, which amounted to copyright infringement for the original translator so now nobody's happy). But the concert version in Carnegie Hall was recorded.

I'm pretty damn sure "theory" was the correct. The idea of the Little Ice Age is not a tentative prediction that needs to be tested, it's an overarching framework for how to explain the evidence we have. That is a theory. A hypothesis is something like "The Ainu language is a stress language," while metrical theory is a framework that explains the large amounts of data we have on how stress behaves in language. The idea of the Little Ice Age is an idea that explains the evidence, not a prediction that needs to be tested. I think that science communicators have oversimplified the idea of what a theory is, and this watered down concept is creating ignorant pedants.

Radiation does come from fission, fission produces gamma when it occurs and also a slow moving free neutron but that’s like saying all heat comes from radiators, the sun is radioactive, we get gamma rays from it (and if you want to be technical it is just a big ball of alpha particles (helium nuclei) but alpha and beta particles would reach us if the sun did emit them.

@johngoode3509 5 ай бұрын

In simple terms, most radiation comes from atoms that have too many nuerons so they spit out a radiation particle to lower the count (and gamma rays form any excess energy)

@Merennulli 4 ай бұрын

@@johngoode3509 Sorry, but that's not correct. 1. The most common source of radiation is fusion, not fission. Even if you ignore non-ionizing radiation, stars completely dwarf the output of fission sources. 2. Most of even fission is not neutron radiation. It's less than 6% of the energy released in uranium and plutonium fission, and even less in other decay reactions. Our primary sources for neutron emitters are alpha emitters that fling out neutrons as a side product, and "spalling" neutrons, flung out from target surfaces by the force of an alpha source. 3. Fission is not about lowing the neutron count. Fission is stabilizing the nucleus by keeping the short range strong force in control over the longer range electromagnetic force. When you have fission, you are almost always losing protons. Typically they take some neutrons with them, but the cause of the fission is the electromagnetic repulsion of protons. Neutron radiation is a side product of this and is, again, less than 6% of the energy of the fission.

21:11 Re: “was the Little Ice Age just the beginning of a new deep freeze?”: from the climate research I’ve read (Berger & Loutre, Science), the current Interglacial (the Holocene, which started 11,700 years ago) is unusually long. While the previous interglacials (the Arousa and the Eemian) were 12-15k years long, the Holocene would be ~60,000 years long (so ending 50k years from now) just by looking at the Milankovitch cycles, without human-caused climate change. Global warming has probably pushed back the start of the next Glaciation by 50k more years. The Little Ice Age was probably a temporary cooling event like the 8.2 and 4.2 Kiloyear Events (taking place 8200 and 4200 years ago)

So it is either a common tactic in order to introduce something new to the countries cuisine, or a common myth, In Greece there is also the same legend about introducing potatoes. The then ruler, Ioannis (John) Kapodistrias, brought them, around 1828, and after that the same think happened. So, it’s like the myth that “the Greek language didn’t become the official U.S. language, losing by one vote from English”. I’ve heard that there is something similar in Germany (I think). And as I was searching about potatoes in Greece, I found a quote from an English man, from 1817 H. W. William, passing from Zakynthos, said: And there I found the first signs of civilization. Potatoes, fresh butter and gallows”

Milankovitch cycles are well understood, and we were nowere near any "deep freeze". Besides the agregate of excess CO2 exausts during industrial revolution, werent yet eough to cunteract any natural major climate.

Stuff can be more than 1 thing. Incandescent means shining through heat While the sun does produce vast amounts of heat, it's not only because of heat that it shines. Fusion also produces photons. It also emits radiation, as already pointed out, so it's also correct to call it radioactive.

@Nick_S3 5 ай бұрын

@@Baddaby the photons emitted by the core (mainly gamma rays) are absorbed by the surrounding layers, heating them. That heat is convected to the surface over many years and mainly released via photons in visible light. So yes, to everyone who isn't living in the core, the sun is incandescent. The only thing from the core we are exposed to directly are neutrinos, and those aren't typically considered as "radiation". The other stuff the sun flings at us are charged particles from magnetic storms - again, not "radiation". And while there are undoubtedly some heavy elements in the sun undergoing radioactive decay and flinging particles at us, these are a miniscule fraction of what hits us.

Earth's surface is a very complex system, which leads to internal variability wherein small changes (and the "Little Ice Age" was a small event, geologically) arise and then go away. Also, the LIA was of more regional than global consequence, and given this channel uses English the producers and viewers concentrate on a lot of European history. If you look at any paleoclimate reconstruction you will find quite numerous little changes in any period. We have, through our changing of the atmosphere and planet surface, left the LIA far, far behind.
