Man, like every state has a Fremont in it.
Mine is the home of Gerber Baby Food. That's like the one thing it's famous for.
And a pretty good pizza place: shout-out Spanky's! Fueled my teen years.
Love your reactions. Illinois and Ohio should form their own unified state.
7:25 we've seen that exact thing here in Oregon.
Our current governor was the Speaker of the House for nearly a decade, and she pushed a hardcore liberal agenda. She's the one who gave the governor basically infinite powers to violate the state constitution during the pandemic.
Now that she's governor, though, she's been positively moderate. Some of her policies have been… short-sighted, but she's proven to be the best governor we've had in 15 years.
One reason to do Napoleons marshals is to stop all the comments
once you hear the random bongo drum beating in their vid you cant stop hearing it
You should check out the video 50 insane facts about the U.S. Navy by The Infographics Show
2:00 i mean Tzar Alexander did march his army all the way to Paris. So why not do the same and send his army to Spain? XD
As a Spanish I tell you Chris, Ferdinand VII is the worst king we've ever had…
" When France sneezes the rest of Europe catches cold.' Metternich.
14:48 Great time to re-emphasize the point made earlier in this series. The "Conservatives" in Britain are the "conservative faction" of the Whig Party. Sure they are moving more and more towards being formally separate parties by this point, but the point remains that the Overton Window in Britain is much more liberal than that of continental Europe. With the Hanoverian succession 100 years prior, Parliament assumed for itself the right to determine who was fit to be King and the Whigs championed this development while the OG Tory Party withered on the vine of Jacobite Risings trying to turn back the clock. "The Gov't of this country for the past century is, and could only have been, a Whig Gov't".
26:44 I said this in the comments of the original video. I think this section was a little overwrought trying to make the case that the British took America to the cleaners (thus justifying the "Americans please leave the room" jokes).
28:14
Wait, what ? HE is no longer the MAIN CHARACTER?????? i don't buy it 😂😂
I think the main reason for HC consistently calling the French intervention in Spain “reckless” is that they went in without a proper exit strategy in case their initial plan of “restore the King, who certainly must have learned the value of compromise by now, to the throne by force” somehow failed. The French were not willing to hand Spain over to the liberals if the King refused to follow the plan, so they were stuck being a foreign occupying force, propping up an unpopular monarch, in a country that had shown them just how devastating that job can be only a few years earlier.
Tsar Alexander sounds a lot like Putin TBH. The parallels between him thinking the international community conspired against spain is more or less what Putin thinks happened in the 2014 Ukrainian Elections.
There is a new starv harv video
Canning is playing chess while everyone else in Europe is playing checkers.
Honestly I was scared for Canning and his policies, considering what happened with Castleraegh and the sudden change in government, but I’m in full support of his decisions, perhaps even more than his predecessor. He set the bar high, well done to him 👏🏾
One note on the western colonies. It is the French that are the only European power to still have continental land in the western hemisphere. The Dutch, British, and Spanish only have tiny island groups or just random islands now. I think that’s a rather interesting result.
Can you react to Shane Gillis talking about history
You really would enjoy the Youtube Channel called Old Britannia! It covers this period fantastically. His work on the revolutionary war is great!
If only we had more people like Canning these days, people willing to agree with people of another party in order to do the right thing. The world might be a better place. Now we mostly have sycophants and yes people for those that don’t represent their true beliefs
Gotta let the song play at the end it is amazing 😂
I watched a two video history of how slavery became abolished in Great Britain and her colonies. The commodity that was the problem was sugar not cotton. The sugar barons bought properties in England that gave them seats in Commons. There was a need to reform how seats in Commons were given and a new system had to be developed with political concessions.
Remember Tarleton? That cavalry officer in the Carolinas? He was a supporter of slavery and associated with the sugar barons. It took about 30 years of political change and reform and slave rebellions to accomplish the abolition of slavery in the British Empire.
Its amazing how much geology has impacted world history.
Funny thing is that actually even with the monroe doctrine "in place" spain did try to retake south america by force in the Spanish-South american war of 1865, where a coalition formed by Argentina, Chile, Peru and Ecuador fought against Spain in a sort of "Re-reconquest", mostly naval battles took place where Chile and Peru took a relevant role (and ironically captured several spanish ships, so the more Spain attacked, the strongest the chilean and peruvian Armada became). Eventually Spain was kicked out (again)
Gotta love the insanity of the nobility at that time. How did the Russian Czar expect to march a whole army through several rival states?
