The Arditi? Ah..... That military group so fearful in battlefield.
Why do the French uniformed soldiers wear Stahlhelme?
@@Peter-ii6in Those are austro hungarians not french
Fun fact: making into Arditi was already hard and the training was the hardest. Some of the Arditi died during training. Their hand to hand prowess wasn't just because they had a knife: they studied a 15th century military manual that had a lot of dagger fighting situations, joint locks, wrestling and anything useful for really close encounters. Few of them carried pistols, preventing cross fire incidents in the trenches.

I like that their fighting knives were reminiscent of stiletto daggers or fairbain Sykes knives
SAS beats them any day they ain’t nothing special
@@Kz-up So what . Special forces like SAS and The Arditi are both special for both countries Italy and UK. And there is nothing you can do about it.

@@ImaSMACKHEAD982 what’s the story then ?
@@onyx2372 4 PARAs went into the bar thinking they are the top boys only to get their heads kicked in by some irish travellers, the next day 2 gurkhas went into the bar and nearly killed the travellers it was around 2009/2010
The Apache and Commanche bands went hard whenever it came to war. What looked like guerrilla warfare to us was another day of survival as a way of life for them.
I like how the left calls native groups peaceful.
@UltraMAGA420 Yeah, well, some of those settlers didn't exactly do any better to them.
The reason for the Comanche coming south is because of the Sioux they never went back. Chased the Kiowa south too, a small Sioux war party numbered about 2000 warriors, a small Comanche war party was far less even with their Kiowa allies. Back then I'd say it was safe to say the Sioux outnumbered the Comanche 10 to 1, the Sioux were numerous and just as fierce as the Comanche.

@OmegaCorsair gurkhas are nepalese not indian- nepalese
Bit of a nitpick but the Māori are a whole culture and still consist of many tribes, rather than them being a tribe
Gurkhas exclusively Nepalese
I changed it
My grandfather was a US Army engineer in the India-China-Burma campaign. He commanded a unit of black engineers attached to a British engineering outfit. Attached to this outfit were gurkhas, who provided security during daylight building operations (the Burma Road) and night time patrols. Grandfather said he had the greatest respect for them. If, as an officer you told them No One gets into this building, then, you were likely to find a dead body outside the building, typically a Japanese soldier. He said they were pure killers.
My grandfather was a Gurkha soldier in Burma during WW2, but that's all I know. It's cool to hear this story, maybe our grandparents worked together

The Sioux are the reason the Comanche went south, and never raided much north of their lands because the Cheyenne. Us Army said it was the Sioux that was the best. Comanche were beat by a handful of Texas Rangers, also the Sioux are the only tribe to capture the American flag from the US Army. But the mountain men who knew the natives the best said it was the Blackfoot that were the best. In case anyone wondered why Comanche raiding lands never came that far up north but way deep into Mexico. The Comanche are only known because of their brutality, they aren't that good at fighting without a horse. The Blackfoot, Sioux, Cheyenne all dismounted to fight.
5 Sioux beat 20 comanche
Oglala represent
Yeah, which is why our badge has a horse rider
And we Anishnabbe are the reason why the Sioux fled the great lakes ahahahhahaha
I'm a Cree and Saultaux, many of our relative tribes forget that us Cree and Anishnaabe are the ones who drove those out, we are the ones that have such vast majority because we would obliterate the Dené, Sioux, Blackfoot, Shawnee, Pawnee, Inuit and sometimes even the Mohawks, but the Mohawks were formidable fighters.
Thanks for discussing New Zealand Māori 🙌🏾🙌🏾
The art for the Comanche section is actually quite amazing..... all these videos have wonderful production value, but the Comanche animations were stunning.
This topic deserves multiple sequels.
The lyrics of probably the widest known haka warcry Ka Mate (courtesy of the All Blacks) was from the story of a defeated tribe chief surviving certain death
Well his tribe Ngati Toa wasn’t totally defeated he actually led them on a migration south from kawhia to Kapiti island and then used it as a base of operations to raid and conquer the lower north island before ravaging the South Island for greenstone and Utu after his uncle was killed by Ngai Tahu.
Yes he hid from his enemy in a Kumara pit with friendly female villager blocking the entrance to it by sitting over it peeling kumara, The actual lyrics of that haka are not the usual provocative bravado and threats of violence usually found in haka but the story of that defeated cheif looking up through the legs of that woman and seeing the sunlight shine through her pubic hairs as he contemplated wether he would survive to see the next day

The Freikorps-Arditi aesthetic went pretty hard.
If anyone is interested in the bears-wolf warriors of ancient and medieval Europe I strongly recommend Schwerpunkt's videos series
thanks for the reccomendation, it seems to be a really good page, actually.
From where exactly ?
Erwin Rommel once commented on the Māori Battalion saying ‘Give me the Māori Battalion and I will conquer the world’ the Māori battalion were the perfect example for warriors on the battlefield. As their parents, grandparents and great grandparents were also apart of war. Look into the NZ land wars and wars with the British empire. If the men died the women would fight
We need a mini series about the Arditi
So amazing to see New Zealand getting some credit, next time please Simple History make a video about the Samoan warriors, that would be amazing!!

History fact for those who do not know New Zealand history.
What caused the war between the Maori and Pakeha, often called the New Zealand land wars, was a mistranslation of a treaty known as the Treaty of Waitangi.
Just felt like pointing that out to anyone who was interested.
And the mistranslation (and whether or not it was deliberate) is still being debated to this day
Winged hussars🇵🇱 Knights Templar ✝️ Vikings 🇳🇴🇩🇰🇸🇪
The Mongols steamrolled Europe's resistance.
@@silveriver9 To begin with, then a warrior monk was sent to kingdoms of europe, learning them to counter fight the Mongols. Hungarians made meatballs of the Mongols the second time they came.
The Mongols barely got into Europe before they ran out of steam and fell apart. Mostly because old Genghis passed away.
@spyrofrost9158 Mongols conquered half of Europe and only stopped and left when a royal family member died in Mongolia. Europe was lucky.

Great video and wonderful mentions to honorable warriors. A little sad that the Conquistadors or Tercios of Spain were not mentioned.
Lol they fought with rifles and armors tribes that had swords and were naked
@@valeriociarla1817 Less than 30% of the Tercio's unit composition consisted of rifles. Most combat against the Aztec and Inca warriors were very close range melee combat. Spain was also the dominant power of Europe for nearly 200 years during the era of pike and shot and played a pivotal role in liberating Budapest from the Ottoman Empire. Brush up on your history, buddy, you sound real ignorant.
@@real_attilathehung if u are comparing Spanish empires technology with aztec and incas one and think its a fair comparison sorry but the ignorant is you. Also no one doubted spains power during that time
@@valeriociarla1817 Then why are doubting The Tercios and Conquistadors. And you're really not giving those American civilizations the credit they deserve as formidable opponent's. No other European power was able to do what Spain achieved at that time. Please pick up some books and actually do your research before looking like an idiot in public.
Rather than tecrios he should have mentioned Sikhs from India
Finally someone mentions Māori, our tupuna were fierce warriors and chieftains. We also invented trench warfare before the imperial colonisers took our tactic and implemented it
Romans actually beat y'all to the punch by a couple hundred years
@@Temoananuiakiwa_ I know, but don't be making claims outta nowhere
Maori revolutionised trench warfare, and successfully implemented trench warfare designs and tactics that rivalled the superior technology and numbers of colonial forces.
As the british took those lessons into future conflicts (world wars being notable examples), Maori essentially modernised trench warfare and showed others how to best utilise your surroundings during battle preparations.
I'd wager that many cultures used some form of trench warfare (Romans did it 1,000 years before Maori) but none did it as effectively or devastatingly as the Maori@@ismaeljimenez6562
@@ismaeljimenez6562definitely didn’t invent trenches, but laid the groundwork for modern trench warfare in the world wars thanks Europeans military experience going against Māori trenches during the Land wars.

Gorkhali people are the most humble , nice and helpful people until you do something which will force them to take our their Khukhuri. Nothing but respect for the Nepalese out there . Although they are so skilled and powerful in warfare they maintain their calmness and choose peace over violence. But when Nepal needs them they will butcher anyone that touches their peaceful land.
Its amazing really, Nepal such a beautiful place with mountains and rivers and the fact that Lord Buddha was born there makes it so peace friendly country and I guess that having responsibility of protecting such a place would make anyone a skilled warrior .
Amazing video
I wish you would’ve mentioned how the Zulus rushed cannon fire and machine gun turrets. That separates the Zulus in my opinion
“The bravest of the brave could never match the maxim gun”
Y’all remember the reaction of the United States Olympic basketball team watching the New Zealand basketball team do that dance? That was one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen.

Respect given where respect is earned. Other notable opponents: the huns, the Mongols, and the Blackfoot tribes
Also, nice addition to the list would be Bosniaks in Austrohungarian army in WW1, unit known for fighting till the end in the style of janissaries, to the point where Austrohungaria would dispatch red feses (which were specific for Bosniaks) to other units in order to scare enemies
Wish they had mentioned the 32 Battalion or the Boer kommandos
I thought the 32 Battalion was during the apartheid
Firstly the Gurkhas never served the British during the Indian War of Independence ( Which you condescend to call the Indian Mutiny )They was a column sent by the ruler to aid the British, as was the Sikhs who were sent by their ruler to aid the British. Both had their own agendas. Secondly one cannot depict exceptional warriors without mentioning the Sultan of Sulus Tausug warriors. When the western powers dominated the seas & setting up their colonial empires. They opted to pay protection money to the sultan rather than face the Tausug warriors in battle.
Sorts of fighters like these have also inspired works of fiction such as The Paid Soldiers of Dorsai, the many alien warrior races in science fiction. Even in my own science fantasy with a more "On the tin" name: Man of War
Nice video, you should remake it by country mate this topic is definitely an awesome series. If you don't mention the Samurai, the Ninja, the Shaolin, the Mongols, the Crusaders, the Boers, the Tribe of Dan and many more of historical significance or Navy Seals, French Legionnaires from a modern perspective it is missing so many honourable mentions. Thanks for sharing. 👍👍
Arditi irl: All we need is a knife and a grenade
Arditi in BF1: Hahaha look at my cool armour and big machine gun
Cool for the sake of gameplay. Would have been interesting play as a realistic Ardito btw. Light, fast and knife based.
@@Vespa-Due Yeah but I guess a large amount of players like to play guns blazing
You should try Vikings or spartan
This channel should do a "what if they versed each other" scenario with various historical armies.
That comment section would devolve rappidly.
I remember that warrior vs warrior series. Exactly like the predator vs predator series You know Tiger vs Lion and Crocodile vs Shark.
In case you've never seen it, they give all their stats, weight, bite force, armour, agility, weapons, tooth and claw length, strengths, weaknesses. Then they have an animated fight at the end to see who takes it.
The tiger was bigger and stronger, and gets the initial upper hand, but the Lion was a more experienced fighter, fitter, with a bigger heart. Lion wins.
The shark was way faster in the water than the croc and was bullying the croc landing many bites, but the crocs armour and strong thrashing made it hard for the shark to get a good bite and hold. When the shark came back around for another go he came in for a side shot and the croc spun around and clamped on to its nose and started death spinning. Then it stopped holding the shark belly up. When sharks are belly up they go docile. Then the croc let go, the docile shark floating helpless in the water, swum around, and chomped straight into the sharks torso. Croc wins.
The warrior series was the same. The only difference was the fight at the end was filmed with actors instead of animated like the animal series. Stats like average height, weight, weapons, armour, agility ability, training, strengths and weaknesses, and experts in each field discussing all variables.
Apache vs Gladiator , and Maori warrior vs Shaolin Monk were two.
The Apache ends up being far too athletic and agile for the Gladiator. Apache wins.
The Maori is kicking the Shaolin Monk from pillar to post as they were twice the size, more powerful and athletic, and a martial artist too. The Shaolin Monk is battered and bleeding and on the ropes, but still standing, The cocky Maori moves in to deliver the death blow, as the monk looks forlornly into his eyes and seems resigned to his fate, when out of nowhere, he puts two long sharp metal knitting needles into each side of the Maori's head. Steel weapons and the Maori's overconfidence were the keys to this result.
Pointless it’s all conjecture
@@nahnotatall4291 So is the GOAT conversations but everyone loves those.
If we're talking armies, the USA win. But a warrior is not really a soldier to me. Warriors usually aren't being paid clothed and fed to fight. Unless they're gladiators.
@@JaemanEdwards goat conversations you have a resume and accolades to validate points this is just fantasy and opinion no real unit of measurement. USA had a stronger army than Vietnam and Afghanistan but couldn’t defeat them you have to measure on more than personnel and budget spends.

As a māori your explanations were pretty accurate but just a couple little errors. 1st the
Hāka is not a dance, it is not meant to entertain anyone. It is more of a ritual. 2nd, for your thumbnail, it would be better to use the tino rangatiratanga flag instead of the nz ensign. The official flag of nz is not representative of māori at all. Aside from that great video 👍
