The Vietnam War - Part 1

Watch Part 2 Here:
• The Vietnam War - Part...
How much do you really know about the Vietnam War (Or Second Indochina War)?
Come with me as we dive deep intro the history of Vietnam, from the First Indochina War against France, all the way to the war against the United States of America.
Operation Rolling Thunder awaits, do not click away!
This video was heavily based on the Wondrium.com course on the Vietnam war! (Not Sponsored, I just really like it)
This video was heavily inspired by Oversimplified and Bill Wurtz (Especially his history of the entire world, I guess)

TAXES!

That's a paddling...

Tax

[@benthecartoonist3518]

This enraged oversimplified, who punished him severely.

[@warrenrhinerson6373]

Putting a tax on an oversimplified style video when oversimplified hasn’t made a video in over a year? Oh you better believe that’s a crucifixion

[@theonlynoob2939]

Bro literally went: If he won't make a Vietnam War video, I will.

[@SoupCanTheAnimator]

NO REPLYS?

[@whis8455]

@@SoupCanTheAnimator hes right what else is there to say

[@zacharyknight3012]

He did promise a Vietnam war video during the Cold War video but that was a long time ago

[@deleetiusproductions3497]

Finally, we got the Vietnam war portrayed in the OverSimplified style. It may not be from the original channel, but it was long overdue and this is honestly good enough.

[@Labyrinth6000]

Let's just accept that Oversimplified is gone now. He has a main job (I think it was computer coding or something related) and a family now. KZbin is the side project from this point onwards. The amount of time spent on KZbin and research vs his actual job is insignificant.

[@deleetiusproductions3497]

@@Labyrinth6000 I never said I wanted him to come back, but okay.

[@RoyalProd23]

@@Labyrinth6000 You have to put into account that videos like these take extensive research. It also takes time to animate and make a script that includes most of the material from the subject that is being talked about in the video. It has been a while since he has posted but you just need to remember the process and time it takes to make a video about history especially history that has tons of information and important events.

[@toggle2565]

@@RoyalProd23 look I get it but its not like he is doing 20 videos a year, burnout is not an excuse here, at least 1 video in 2023 would have been fine, the only reason i see him not uploading at least once is something in his life happened and there is sadness

[@Ghost-bd9rn]

@@toggle2565true but mostly likely procrastinating and stuff like that also wanting to be correct as possible or just is a side job put no matter what it is always fun to see him post a video even if it takes a year cause there ain’t no one like him (besides this guy)

I can't believe you managed to make a Vietnam video before Oversimplified. Bravo🎉🎉

[@Stevfilmshimself]

Anyone can do anything before oversimplified can upload

[@merucrypoison296]

Not very hard to, those guys don’t even deserve their subs anymore tbh

[@SimplyDuker]

Well, Vietnam War is a very complicated topic and from the look of things, Oversimplified values quality over quantity so can't say I blame him for not making the video soon enough.

[@InfiniteMonkeyTheorem]

Why not? Their videos are insanely good. You can't make an accurate video about a period in history without doing a lot of research so I fully understand the time it takes for them to upload.@@merucrypoison296

[@homersimpson6585]

its kinda funny how oversimplifid said in their cold war video the vietnam war would come soon after it(something like that) and people waited years only to see someone else who has oversimplified style does it instead Kudos to you creator

[@sarthaksharma9129]

Oversimplified? Nah bro, we got SIMPLIFIED

[@Loser_LBozo]

Nah we got Understandable, ACTUALLY we got Interpreted, ACTUALLY We got clear

[@nhienleminhhue6605]

a minor correction, the ally's occupation to disarm the Japanese was divided between the Chang"s Army (Republic of China) north of the 16th parallel not the 17th, and the Brit to the South. The reason why the French could retake Cochinchina that fast was because the Brits beat up Việt Minh(Democratic Republic of Việt Nam) first and forced them out of the cities. But to the North due to the Civil War in China and having some compromises from both Việt Minh(Democratic Republic of Việt Nam) and the French, they withdraw their 200.000 soldiers back to China to fight the Communists. Then the French got some Compromise from Việt Minh (Democratic Republic of Việt Nam), and they moved north to jointly administrate the Government. And Cochinchina was a lot smaller and do not include Annam(the Central part of the country)

[@lecraig_]

also, the "bao dai" is not bao dai. he showed a photo of ngo dinh diem, who became the president of south vietnam after the division of vietnam

[@angelserenade]

I love to see lots of Oversimplified-inspired history channels emerging these past few years. I know there have been some channels doing the animated history years before Oversimplified became viral, but now, I think these channels get the right charm (and humor) to gain and grow its followers. Keep up the great work!

[@all-thingstv]

My grandfather was a Morrocan Goumier that fought on the side of the French during the French-Indochina wars. You really explained the subject well even though it was heavily simplified. And i also like the Oversimplified animation style, keep up the work 👍

[@MrTerry]

Great work! This was an awesome video! I look forward to Part 2!

[@ThingsICareAbout]

Thank you, and great reaction! Part 2 is already live!

[@antoniobautista6718]

Amazing stuff man, I think all history enthusiasts on KZbin would enjoy more uploads like yours, even Oversimplified; keep up the great work and keep bringing the great mix of comedy and real history that you adapted from and made unique in your own way! ❤🔥

[@mahe8838]

MASSIVE improvement from the last video I saw, good work man.

[@user-vo8tk5lr5j]

At this rate you’ll be as good as oversimplified thank you so much for the great history content

Well done bro. It was absolutely perfect. Your style to explaining and voice over is excellent and animation is really good too

[@jaserobertson6783]

Your basically oversimplified but you upload more good job.

A vietnam war oversimplified style, before oversimplified himself. Thats some real good stuff dude keep it up!

[@remysadventures-official8357]

Initially, I had my doubts, but hey, I really like this guy's content! the name sounds wholesome, and he uploads more often than Oversimplified! I also like that there is an increase in quality after every video! Cheers and keep going :D edit: Forgot to mention, even though he started with th Oversimplified style, he's also evolving his own style, which is cool tbh!

[@ibro8855]

That's the understatement of the century.

[@Nestor__Makhno]

Also I cant express how much I love the fact that you give us true history, unlike oversimplified, who is way too biased, and makes certain nations warcrimes sound like games and fun. Wish you all the best, you have all my support.

@@Randomdude112 Why should I insult my intelligence, by arguing with a tiktok addict who doesnt know that meth and coke are drugs? Dropping down to your level, would be frustrating, as people like you dont believe the US is supplying the fascists, spearing nazis, and using your taxpayer money to replace democratically elected socialist leaning governments, and replace them with genocidal dictatorships, while stealing that nations natural resources. Faced with the evidence, your tiktoker mind can only think of "I AIN READIN ALLAT🍆🍆💦💦🤡🤡💀💀🗿🗿"

Finally, after a long wait, we finally have full, however unofficial Vietnam War Oversimplified. Even though it's fan made, the quality is practically the same.

[@trickorsneak1223]

I got like really excited when I saw the thumbnail but got really put down when I realized it wasn't oversimplified, but then got really excited again when I just watched it.

[@Korinthian-do7sx]

This guy is better than oversimplified in my opinion because his videos are just as good{ if not better} and he uploads relatively every few months instead of every few years.

[@nothanks9503]

No

[@king_fisherXX]

My guy… People have lived you do know that, right? Oversimplified doesn't need to be forced to make a video every 1 week just because your bored ass can't find something else to watch 😐

[@austintaylor6152]

I think if oversimplified uploaded more it would take away from the lore that comes with each video he puts out

[@Cuppachoccy]

"This guy is better than oversimplified" dude what the fuck are saying

[@rosnajulia]

Okay? Oversimplified takes months and years to make good content this one is a bit rushed for animation but still has a better lore which makes this guy upload more while Oversimplified takes time and effort and has better animations and humours

As Vietnamese, This is the most historically accurate video made by a foreigner that I have ever seen. Until now, people still believe that the Vietnamese army is only guerrillas holding AK guns. Vietnam had such a large number of weapons such as tanks, artillery and missiles that it caused concern for the security of Southeast Asia at that time.

[@redrocket604]

Yeah, thanks to Russia and China. There's no way in hell that Vietnam can make their own weapons 😂

[@huadce]

@@redrocket604Guess what? They were literally all FARMER😅 For sure, we very much appreciate the support and aid from the Soviet Union, China, Iraq, Cuba, etc. People at that time believed that Vietnamese people would have their own independence.

I am a Vietnamese living in Vietnam. The war between Vietnam and America made both sides sacrifice a lot. It is a mistake of the past that we must not forget. Because it is a lesson for both sides. Let's look forward to the future and develop together for a world where everyone has the right to live freely. equality and happiness Vietnamese people have risen from the ashes. We appreciate every moment of living in peace. Vietnamese people love peace but if any threat comes from outside Otherwise, the entire Vietnamese nation will stand up and unite to expel the enemy. And no matter how strong or big China is, Vietnam is not afraid. If China attacks or invades Vietnam, even if the Vietnamese people die, they will still fight and will not submit. The last person. When all Vietnamese people die, then China will win. Ask all Vietnamese people if they are afraid of China and you will understand.And I just want to say I respect soldiers, they only follow orders and they only want to serve their country and their homeland, so don't blame them.
