Frederick, Crown Prince of Brandenburg-Prussia will become a warrior king and an enlightened monarch that the likes of Prussia has never seen. His climb to power would be great but his childhood was not so easy. He would live with mistrust and violence at his heels. With relentless bullying from his own flesh and blood.

Thanks so much for watching!
well no matter what you say about his father, it was very clear that his father's teachings did as a matter of positively affected Frederick ll greatly atleast regarding the discipline, war, strategy and militirastic aspects of his rule.
Oh so thats what they meant by "not exactly straight"
If you love a smirky presenter, this is the channel for you.

8:57 Why bro green like shrek
Sigma 🗿
2:28 You still need some science to an extent, especially military innovation.
Gotta suck to be the soldiers who forced young Fredrick to watch his lover die.
They had to know if they refused: the father would kill them.
But they must have also known when Fredrick became king, he'd probably also kill them.
I wonder how his sister was treated 😢
6:24 "Mmmhh… Reminds me of something.." -Ivan IV "The Terribe"
where tf is my Fredrick the great musical
Bro imagine being such a bad father to make your son watch his best friend get executed
Whelp at least the nickname is cool
Broncos
I guess the reason Frederick-William was so obsessed with Military and Masculinity was because of Prussia state. Even the title "King in Prussia" would hurt ones ego as the ruler.
If Rome would have survived the fall and was the size of current Germany instead of its full glory, I would be pretty sure the person who rules would have a massive ego complex to restore Rome to its full state.
0:19 why did i yell gaylord at this moment
4:20 understandabel xD
How are you supposed to decapitate someone when their head is already floating
why is he's face in 7:36 so cute
I want this man as my history teacher
What a great dad
NOOORRRRRR WHYYY THE BEGINNING MADE ME SO SAD WHHYYYYY😭
You have to remember that at this period boys having male lovers before submitting to marriage was totally normal in most of Europe especially the Catholic parts. Is only his father's strict calvinist flavor of protestantism fever that made it a problem.
Feel sorry for his bride.
"Please forgive me dear Katte! In God's name forgive me! "
"There's nothing to forgive… I'd die for you with joy in my heart"
AAAAH WHY IS THAT SO SWEET!?
