@narcissusnarwhal7141 0 seconds ago “The wealthiest province of the Ottoman Empire,” doesn’t ring true to me. First of all, that implies that the Ottoman government actually controlled Egypt, which is questionable. The Mamluks were even less renowned than the Ottoman state for the quality of their rule, so it probably wasn’t very prosperous at the time. In fact the European provinces of the Ottoman Empire are usually cited as its most productive. Volney’s influential work only emphasised the POTENTIAL of Egypt for generating wealth (if occupied and correctly exploited (by France).

Frenchy is MIA 07

Incroyable ton travail Toutes ces petites anecdotes comment tu les as eu ? Amazing job really Hopefully we get an epic tv show on Napoleon because Ridley’s Scott’s movie 😱 it was painful

Women voting 🗳️ in 1945 France 🇫🇷 makes sense. All those brave women in the French resistance ! How could you not let them vote. Equality 🟰 is earned as people show why things must be changed. Shame the modern world 🌍 expects something for nothing and with no explanation as to why things need to be changed

We learned in our history classes what a huge contribution the French made to our independence. ❤

This is a very late response to your channel. Apologies. I love it. I have loved France since I was a young boy . Your response to Micky' s take on your country was great. I now have to find your other posts . Merci .

My main problem with this alternate timeline, is concerning the Battle of Trafalgar. He assumes that the British Navy would be obliterated if the French and the Spanish were organized and held a firm line of defense, but he is conveniently forgetting the superiority of the British tactics and training. Meaning, if the British saw that the French and the Spanish held a firm, disciplined defensive line against them, Nelson would not have charged them head on as he did in our timeline. The reason he charged in was BECAUSE they were disorganized. He would have revised his strategy and come up with a different tactic if he saw that they held a firm line. Assuming that the British would just hurl themselves against numerically superior forces while they at the same time held a disciplined line of defense is not logical. More likely, Nelson would have found a different tactic, and he still would have won the battle. Maybe not nearly as decisive as he did win, but still a win, because the British had a that time proven time and time again their overwhelming superiority on the sea. Or another likely scenario. The French and the Spanish would have just escaped from the fight, and two sides would find a different time to engage each other.

Throughout history Britain’s and France have not always been the best of friends, but it’s lovely to see that we came to eachothers aid when the circumstances led to it. Sending love from London 🇬🇧❤🇫🇷

Renee was in the De Gaulle resistance and when people wanted to know who De Gaulle was it was said he was the tall one with the big hooter (nose). There was another resistance the Communist Resistance and which ever one was strongest would control France after the liberation. As Edith once noted that the head of the local communist resistance was not only a ruthless bumming blackmailer but was also a very good catholic.

Great Channel - look forward to more

Have you heard of Nancy Wake the Australian/New Zealander who worked for the Marquis in occupied France.

Napoleon's problem was that he could not stop in time. There was the possibility of concluding peace by preserving Belgium and possibly Holland, but this did not suit his ambitions.

10:44 ah yes irak also😂 10:51 usa say : If you don't agree you are a terrorist and an enemy of "freedom"

This type of speaking i believe comes from English people struggling with vowels in the French language so if you notice the words he mispronounces all use the wrong vowels

Morgan's hilarious, absolutely perfect in this role!

The combat record of Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth Winged Hussars stands for itself. In 1577 a massive charge of this ultra-heavy cavalry unit smashed a German army from Danzig, blitzing into the teeth of a 12,000 man force and crushing them until all that remained was a well-trampled patch of red where the enemy army once used to be. Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth losses in the battle totaled about 88 men, and most of those clowns weren't even Hussars. In 1601, a thousand Hussars defeated a Swedish cavalry force four times that size. At the Battle of Kircholm four years later, the Hussars (whose commanders' completely badass motto was "Kill First, Calculate Later"), sent 1,000 lancers in a charge against 11,000 Swedish infantrymen and cannons for some reason, and incredibly, despite the ridiculous idiocy of sending your elite troops on such an impossible mission, the friggin' Hussars jammed their poles (OMG AWESOME PUN FTW) into anything they could find and not only emerged victorious, but utterly slaughtered their opponents army, hacking the broken infantry units into giblets as they fled the field. Amazingly, that wasn't even the most impressive shit this mobile last stand accomplished in its proud heritage as the Commonwealth's premier exporter of busted-up faces. At the Battle of Klushino in 1610, the Hussars were outnumbered ten to one, and still somehow came out on top, utterly annihilating an army of 40,000 Swedes and Russians with just 4,000 lancers. What might be even more awesome then the Winged Hussars' much-deserved reputation as seemingly-invincible shit-wreckers is their completely over-the-top awesome battle gear. These guys went with the heaviest armor they could find, decking themselves out in fully-articulated plate mail at a time when most European armies were switching away from breastplates and over to firearms, but these ferocious warriors didn't even give a crap about rushing at state-of-the-art muskets with hand-to-hand combat weapons. Their primary implement of facial demolition was a lightweight (yet still completely insane) 19-foot lance capable of outreaching even the most well-endowed infantry spear hedges, and after they splintered that up the asses of their foes, the Hussars could fall back on pistols, a dagger, and one of two different types of swords. badassoftheweek.com/hussars.

As a proud Brit growing up not far from Southampton docks I learn about all these naval battles long ago but It was great to watch along with you, your English was extremely good and your reactions thoughtful and concise. Top Quality content for a rainy Wednesday evening.

As an American the thing we know most about France during WW II is the resistance also known as the French underground. A video from The Fat Electrician that would address that would be The Limping Lady.

Good News Epic History tv has released a video on Nelson’s Battle Of The Nile

6:05 in regards to American units, theres a running joke between those who have fought them that its best to avoid killing squad leaders/officers first because they're the only one in their squad enforcing the Geneva conventions as rules and not a checklist, which is what is going to happen to any squad without an officer-equivalent to hold their reins.

I think you would enjoy his video on the Bazooka Tank (M50 Ontos). A vehicle that was designed by regular soldiers with the help of farmers. A real case of what would it be like if we took two things not originally meant to be together and combined them.

I think your reaction to the "1914- to 1917" line is this same as everyone.

Good News Epic History tv has released a new video on Nelson’s Battle of The Nile

Spanish Amanda, that cracked me up !! She's a gem

Scotland's main function is as a windbreak. There is a reason why the Romans got to the border with modern day Scotland and their first reaction was to build two big walls.

Brits, French, Germans and Italians all get taking the piss out from this comedy which I grew up with 😂😂

In the painting Nelson has an empty sleeve however it was his right arm that he lost and his eye was damaged before that.

Men, women and children fought Hitler for almost a month, while our French and British allies sat in trenches and bunkers like cowards. We will not forget this to you cowards in Poland, alliances with you are a total defeat and destruction

Länge leve Svea Rike👑👑👑

Check out his video on 'America's War Horse', explains a little more and great entertaining video

America's governement took 3,5 years off his carreer. A comeback will always be very tough. Only in america politics will and can decide who's championships must be stripped. Did america boycot the OG's in Russia back in the 80's? Sport and politics mixed seems OK. Rest of the world keep silence even during the most stupid war in Vietnam without any criticism from those who believe in whatever incl. "justice and peace keepers". America wanted to do the same to Ali as what they did to "Hurricane" (B. Dylan song). But hey, this "country" is known for segregation slavery and gun violence. Untill today stop and search still going strong for one group. Locking up people to find out after 20 25 or 30 years they where innocent. A dog is a better mammal than a human (labelled as they want to place themselves as so intelligent).

François Dalerac, the French courtier of Polish King Jan III Sobieski, wrote in 1699, “The hussars never halt, they ride their horses at full speed, breaking through everything that’s in front of them"

Unless an obsession hurts you or someone else, either mentally or physically, it's not unhealthy. I have an unhealthy obsession with clips from the Ukraine/Russia war, that's unhealthy because it gives me nightmares. But I don't blame you for being fascinated by North Korean propaganda. It's amazing, it's like it comes from another universe. Such a strange world to live in. The story about Otto Warnbier is particularly interesting to me.

What's up with the white hat? It looks kinda like a French foreign legion hat

I love that you actually look up more info on certain things that you don't know about in the reaction.

The thing I have to say here is, one: It was one of the Greeks who fired the ramrod. And secondly, the way I see the early presidencies there is this: Adams was the snake shit filling of a sandwich with terrific bread. Not only was he a spineless coward to the Barbary pirates, he also passed the Seditions Act, which pretty much was the classic violation of the first amendment, as it tried to legalize jailing of political opponents and dissenters.

Thank you so much for your insights. It's interesting to hear a French person's perspective on this whether if the animation was accurate.

Theoden King of Poland and Sobieski King of Rohan, glorious heroes!

Bravo 👏, your understanding of basic American history puts most Americans to shame.

Fully support the German perspective. The French and English are notorious schemers. Even today see how many foriegn war france and english are involved in.

To vindicate the French, to the north of the battlefield you'll find a French owned Carrefour supermarket today.

The "sleep" that Nic refers to is almost certainly just blacking out, you can't sleep on that mant stimulants but your brain can basically get overloaded and shut down and it feels basically like sleeping though you're not actually recovering like you would from actually sleeping

Tbf while meth can make you agressive it's unlikely to make you fight with the people you're friends with untill you hit the point of being high that you're full blown hallucinating from the drugs and lack of sleep then all bets are off but for a normal person durring the come up they will have a ton of energy and probably actually be really happy, the agression comes more from withdrawls/full blown psychosis once their brain has broken fron prolonged use. As a single use thing though it is very similar to mda and mdma with how it feels which makes since cause they're both amphetamines too with mdma having meth as the base molecule meth is just more stimulating and a bit less psychedelic. An interesting thing is mda is a stronger stimulant than mdma despite being built off the amphetamine molecule instead of the methamphetamine one that mdma is built off of even though amphetamine is a way weaker stimulant. Another interesting thing is supposedly meth is far more addictive when smoked rather than eaten because thst euphoria rush hits you all at once and is far harder to resist than just eating it and the slowish come on which i thought was surprising like you're still getting the same end effect just hitting faster and harder and therefore wearing off faster too

The closest thing to a successful "communist" society had to be like tribal life gor like native American tribes, like it's not exactly communism but has the same general ideas a lot of times. Same with like hippy comunes, it works on a small scale like village/tribal level where everyone could choose to be part of it or leave to a different tribe but large scale it just can't cause of greed

Yeah. America and France are definitely tied when it comes to being potty mouths and I respect it. Much love to you and the French people. Great reaction man ❤

Grande réaction. Merci. Vous avez mérité mon abonnement.

People often underestimate the size of America on map. For example, Sherman march almost equivalent to Germany to Russia and Gen. Grant march almost match distance between north to South France. back and forth

I don't understand why Hollywood hasn't made a blockbuster movie about this. It has everything, it's based on a true amazing story. It's WWII with classic good and bad guys, it's a lot of action AND the US is the hero that saves all the defenders in the castle. Everyting Hollywood likes.
