Also, when you talk about the units of the countries / armies, write them out on the screen, and visualize the amount of units / men underneath

Thank you very much, for the kind words! I am glad you enjoy my work. You are correct in your language assumption, I can do English and some German so my sources are limited. Everything I have stated as fact comes from the sources I have listed in the video. I would be grateful if you could let me know what information is incorrect, if briefly? Thank you. No shame taken and I greatly appreciate constructive critisism such as this. Thank you for the recommendation there!

"The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth is always worth one mass" Yeah I could imagine that. It's hard to say how sincere his conversation was, but it seems very likely that it was a purely pragmatic move.

I am planning to yes, all going well!

Welcome to the world of Danish pronunciation….

@@erlingkolltveit6322 He’s not speaking Danish at any point though.

@@fridrekr7510 "hvervede" which, to the best of my very limited understanding is pronounced 'Ver-rhuh' it's a Danish word meaning 'Enlisted'. In future I might bring the word up on screen when trying to pronounce difficult words.

@@YetAnotherHistoryChannel Ver-ve-uh is closer. I appreciate the effort, but there’s not much point in using these terms if native speakers can’t understand half of them. Just speaking English would be clearer, because right now it sounds like a mix of German and English which gets a bit confusing. I’m not trying to correct your pronounciation, I just figure it’ll be easier for everyone in English.

​@@fridrekr7510 Ah, thank you. I appreciate the advice.

Thank you, that's great to hear! I'm grateful some people out there enjoy these videos.

Thank you very much! I thought it was important to make my sources clear, especially if anyone wants to learn more on their own.

Thank you for your comment, that is actually a very good point. I'll see if I can provide some better examples in future, especially of more obscure weapons and such.

@@YetAnotherHistoryChannel awesome content either way, I watched, I think, all of your videos yesterday. Subscribed and excited for more Edit: sometimes museums will have photos you can use for educational purposes which I think this would qualify for. I’m not an expert on photo-use rules though!

@@jamesivey5573 Thank you, I am very happy to hear that, I'll be keeping this up a little while yet I hope. Very true, I know the Stockholm and Dresden army museums both have great collections.

Thank you, there's more to come!

@@YetAnotherHistoryChannel like shillings on a drum.

Thank you very much, I'm especially glad to hear that!

Thank you!

Thank you very much for the kind words and support! That does sound a very interesting place to live. I have wanted to visit the fortress of Fredriksten for a good while now, an old town star fortress would also be a great sight.

@@YetAnotherHistoryChannel This is old Fredrikstad if you look across the channel you can see the circular remains of Isegran fort. upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/63/2.10-old_town_fredrikstad.jpg

Thank you! Very kind, I intend to!

​​@@YetAnotherHistoryChannelI have always been quite interested in Saxony. Rich history and lots of events connected to Sweden in the 17th and early 18th century. I had an idea for a video about all the battles that has happened close to Leipzig between 1620 and 1820. It is a lot of major ones. But I realised it was maybe a step above what I am capable of 😅

@@StoriesFromHistory-rv4oi There is a lot of interesting history to see within Saxony. The Festung Königstein springs to mind, as does the Festung Dresden, or what remains of it under the city. Plenty of interaction with Sweden that's for sure. There are a few there, Lutzen and the Battle of the Nations spring to mind. Have you heard of the Völkerschlachtdenkmal? You could break it down, tackle one battle at a time in a 'Battles of Liepzig' series?

@@YetAnotherHistoryChannel I have never been. But would love to go at some point. Lots of interesting stuff to check out still I understand. Thanks for the tips! Lützen and Battle of Nations are maybe the top ones in my mind together with Breitenfeld which is in the northern part of todays Leipzig. We also have Lützen during Napoleonic times. And if we widen the area just a little bit we also get the twin Battles of Jena and Auerstedt. And also Frederick the Greats big victory at the Battle of Rossbach.

@@StoriesFromHistory-rv4oi No problem, I hope you get the chance. Those are obvious ones yes, very true with Breitenfeld too. Frederick and Napoleon's battles are also good ground to cover. There is certainly no shortage of interesting topics. We seem to have a lot of shared interest and our channels seem to be looking into roughly the same ball park. If you ever fancy getting in touch feel free to drop an email at yetanotherhistorychannel@gmail.com anytime.

Thank you very much! I have no direct relations to Scandinavia, I have visited Stockholm a couple of times but that's about it. So from the outside I suppose.

​@@YetAnotherHistoryChannela bit of topic, but I have you checked out Sabaton? It is a metal band that does songs about military history. They have a whole album about the rise and fall of Sweden in this period. They also have Sabaton history episodes for all their songs which is created and narrated by American (and now also Swedish) historian Indy Neidell. He is really great at narrating history.

@@StoriesFromHistory-rv4oi I do know Sabaton yes, I was even lucky enough to go to one of their concerts. Some great historical music there. Indy Neidell certainly has some great work, I have enjoyed his Great War, WW2 and Time Ghost stuff as well.

@@YetAnotherHistoryChannel He is great. I am really enjoying his series on the Korean War. Its a war I knew the big stuff in but I am learning so much more now. Love it! What type of content have you thought about doing more of going forward on your channel?

@@StoriesFromHistory-rv4oi That's true there's a lot to learn with Korea. Well, not to tie myself down too much, I want to continue my current two series. When I have covered all the armies relevant to the Great Northern War I wouldn't mind tackling the whole Great Northern War from beginning to end in a great big series. A series on the second Anglo-Afghan war is something else I'm toying with. But I have a lot of interest areas and am very open to suggestion.

Thank you very much! I'm glad to hear it, are there any particular wars you'd like to see covered?

What do you mean with sound? Because I can hear him talk 😅

Thank you for the comment, I am assuming you mean background music? If so what sort of music would you like to hear?

@@YetAnotherHistoryChannel it might be a codec or copyright problem, but I get neither music nor speach when I open the video 🤔

@@fessorjespersen5437 Curious, there is no music with the video, I didn't provide any. But there should be a voice over from me throughout. Hopfully it's just a bug of some sort. I'm sorry you didn't get the proper experience. I hope it works for you later.

@@YetAnotherHistoryChannel I hear you talking so it should be OK.

Thank you, very much!

Thank you very much, very kind of you! I am planning to create a small series, so I hope so to!

Thank you very much!
