    World history on Khan Academy: Called the Great War (before World War II came about), World War I was the bloody wake-up call that humanity was entering into a new stage of civilization. Really the defining conflict that took Europe from 19th Century Imperial states that saw heroism in war into a modern shape. Unfortunately, it had to go through World War II as well (that some would argue was due to imbalances created by World War I).
    About Khan Academy: Khan Academy offers practice exercises, instructional videos, and a personalized learning dashboard that empower learners to study at their own pace in and outside of the classroom.

    Thank you so much for this 4 part video series. I would be lost without the visuals, spellings, maps; you make it all easier to grasp. Blessings.

    I like the idea of teaching history however there is a big difference between history and math, and that is that historians often disagree with one another. They especially strongly disagree about the intentions behind the actions of people and Napoleon is one of these topics they strongly disagree on. To French historians he's a hero while other historians depict him as Hitler. Khan is reasonable moderate though but a bit on the negative side. Khan academy is still great though!

    @Thutmosis7 The Napoleonic Code - or Code Napoléon (originally, the Code civil des Français) - is the French civil code, established under Napoléon I in 1804. The code forbade privileges based on birth, allowed freedom of religion, and specified that government jobs go to the most qualified. It was drafted rapidly by a commission of four eminent jurists and entered into force on March 21, 1804.

    I agree. Abolish public schools in America and the world and give every child a laptop programmed to Khanacademy. Imagine the the tens of trillions of dollars in savings on a global scale and not to mention the educational benefits the world would get with all these geniuses in the world. No war, no famine, no poverty, no pollution; just peace and prosperity. Thanks Sal for this potential vision of a whole new planet Earth.

    @PhotoPlankton I can't remember the king name. But it's a king in france during the dark age describing the moors as black as ink. So i know right there. But anyway i am not going to get into this cuz it's getting old arguing over something that happen over a thousand yr ago.

    @Thutmosis7 Napoleon emancipated Jews from laws which restricted them to ghettos, and he expanded their rights to property, worship, and careers. Despite the anti-semitic reaction to Napoleon's policies from foreign governments and within France, he believed emancipation would benefit France by attracting Jews to the country given the restrictions they faced elsewhere.

    what was the logic behind the revolutionaries..? Why would one ever want kings and queens..?

  • @PhotoPlankton
    @PhotoPlankton 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @Thutmosis7 Again, I am not disputing that the moors brought knowledge with them. Though, the main reason they were overrun in the end (the "Reconquista" took centuries) were manpower issues and a lack of political unity.
    I need to ask you to offer a credible source that describes the moors as all black African. I cannot find one. Again, I am not disputing that there were many black moors, but not all of them were.
    Please don't waste my time if this is all just misguided racism.

  • @PhotoPlankton
    @PhotoPlankton 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @Thutmosis7 What about the Roman and Greek civilization?
    After the fall of Rome it went downhill for Europe (apart from the Byzantine Empire perhaps) and that's why the period is called the Dark Ages. The moors certainly introduced a lot of knowledge into Europe, but as I said, it's only really with the arrival of Byzantine scholars and the invention of the Printing Press that Europe starts to overtake the rest of the world (which it factually does; socially, economically, and technologically)

  • @Thutmosis7
    @Thutmosis7 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @PhotoPlankton Not to take away some of your thunder. But what do you expect when they all went to the school of the moors? Wouldn't they come back with some to build on. So yea they were educated by the moors and they use it as their advantage and disadvantage against the own masters which is the moors. In the play Othello, Shakespeare depicted him as black and wasn't he a moor? So the europeons knew who the moors were. Its until the late 19th century they change it to arab or white.

  • @PhotoPlankton
    @PhotoPlankton 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @Thutmosis7 "But then they lost it, and it was the moors who were majority black african people came back with it. It's not new to africans, its ancient way of living."
    I doubt the Moors were majority black africans. Also, modern Europe received most of the classical knowledge of things like democracy and republicanism, as well as a whole bunch of other philosophies through Byzantine scholars mainly. They ushered in the Renaissance in Italy.

  • @Thutmosis7
    @Thutmosis7 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @MrBillcale Europeons didn't brought civilization with them, cuz they are not civil peoples. We all know that. To make claims they without them passing some laws the world wouldn't be better its ridiculous. Cuz in truth all that you mention the idea of democrazy came to europe through the egyptians priest who thought the greeks. But then they lost it, and it was the moors who were majority black african people came back with it. It's not new to africans, its ancient way of living.

  • @Thutmosis7
    @Thutmosis7 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Like i said before napoleon was a opportunist. He was not suppose to be emperor of france. It was dumas. But saying things about jews getting rights is ridiculous. Cuz it's the same jews been controlling the money before napoleon was born.

    @Thutmosis7 the directorate tried to apply enlightenment principles something no other culture did, but there was chaos, napoleon established order for the mobs
    two steps forward one step back you cannot judge him by modern standards he had to deal with mobs of cannibals who were little bette than animals , people were not ready for democracy yet but his reforms created conditions so that slavery could be abolished in 1848
    and we can have democracy and freedm in europe and the world

  • @MrBillcale
    @MrBillcale 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @Thutmosis7 But it was the first modern legal code to be adopted with a pan-European scope and it strongly influenced the law of many of the countries formed during and after the Napoleonic Wars. The Code, with its stress on clearly written and accessible law, was a major step in replacing the previous patchwork of feudal laws. Historian Robert Holtman regards it as one of the few documents that have influenced the whole world.
    did hitler leave such a legacy of equality and justice ?

  • @MrBillcale
    @MrBillcale 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @Thutmosis7 The Napoleonic Code was not the first legal code to be established in a European country with a civil legal system - it was preceded by the Codex Maximilianeus bavaricus civilis (Bavaria, 1756), the Allgemeines Landrecht (Prussia, 1794) and the West Galician Code, (Galicia, then part of Austria, 1797).

    I studied all this in school, but I had no idea what my teacher was blabbering on about. He used no visual aids at all, so I had no clue which part of Europe he was referring to. Not to mention, the map of Europe was very different from what it is today.

  • @PhotoPlankton
    @PhotoPlankton 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The portrayal of Napoleon is pretty negative in this one. It's funny how one side reveres him as the greatest man since Julius Ceasar, an intellectual, a reformer and saviour of the virtues of the revolution (or something along those lines) etc etc, and the others consider him a corrupt character, tyrant, warmonger etc..

    no, its bicameral. We have the lower house (house of representatives), which is based off population distribution with each house getting at least one representative.
    Next we have the upper house (Senate), with two senators per state.
    Senate: 100
    House : 435 (+ 6 non voting members)
    House:
    Democrats: 253
    Republicans: 178
    Senate
    Dem : 59
    Repub: 41

  • @Thutmosis7
    @Thutmosis7 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @PhotoPlankton Nonsense there were no higher learning in europe prior before the moors arrival there. Many moors after their fall or before that went up into germany, italy, and france and spread wisdom. The first university in europe came from the moors, not vaticans. Plus the headquarter of italy was in turkey, not rome. The europeons benefit alot from the moors than the byzantine which is nothing but nonsense. It's the moors who brought in the renaissance age in europe.

  • @Thutmosis7
    @Thutmosis7 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @PhotoPlankton Yes moors were black african. Even a french king said that after he stopped them at a certain point in the battle. Moors did conquered all of spain, portugal and southern france. Their influence was felt alot by the europeons. Without the moors the europeons would still be in cave and suffering from the bubonic plague they got from the nasty lifestyle of living.

    Didn't Napoleon have a thing about Alexander The Great?

  • @PhotoPlankton
    @PhotoPlankton 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @Thutmosis7 You appear to be right, to an extend. I always assumed that they were mostly Arabs and Berbers, but the definition of what a Berber seems to have changed over time. Nonetheless, the moors were a diverse people comprised of all sorts of African tribes and not just Black Africans.
    The Muslims never conquered all of the Iberian Peninsula.
    I agree that most of Europe was underdeveloped. The "Middle East" and North Africa were clearly far more advanced at the time.

    @Thutmosis7 Your knowledge of history is a little sketchy.
    Napoleon was certainly not an idiot. In many respects he can be considered a genius ... simple as that. You don't have to revere him as @MrBillcale does to recognise that.
    Don't make the mistake

I wish you would also look at Napoleon in more depth in these areas: his domestic reforms - Constitutional Changes - Religious - Economic etc, Also the Different Constitutions 18000, 1802, 1804, 1815, and just his system of Government: police, censorship and opposition to Napoleon. This would make revising for my students much more entertaining that listening to me!
