The cat thing - cats hunted mice that infested granaries. More cats meant fewer mice and more grain that was available for eating or sowing the next growing season.

The Italio-Turkish War(1911-1912) was the first time bombs were dropped from an airplane. Technically they were large grenades with screw-in fuses. The Ottoman Empire took Italy to court in Geneva claiming that Italy had violated the treaty that banned bombardment using aircraft. Italy stated that the treaty only banned bombardment from lighter-than-aircraft, because airplanes were heavier-than-air, they were not covered under the treaty. It was ruled that Italy technically violated the spirit of the law but not the letter of the law and absolved the Italian government of any war crimes. It laid the groundwork for the use of bombers in future wars.
Indeed. And then Germany invented strategic bombing using Zeppelin's. Of course, the country that gave us chemical warfare didn't really much care for treaties or war crimes
4:06 I’m sure someone else has already commented on this but the cat thing has 2 possible reasons for springing up. First the Egyptian Mau is the oldest breed of domestic cat in the world, so there maybe a relationship to that. The more likely answer is that cats killed many of the pests like mice and other rodents that can destroy crops. Personally I think it’s a little bit of both.
Poly anus is the guy who said this And he was alive like 200 years after the war. It's completely unfounded, as pointed out by djpeachcobbler Very funny video
My favorite teacher of all time, and one that led me into a lifelong love of learning history, was a female. 8th Grade Mrs. Everett. Every now and then, I'll bump into her at my local publix, And so ask me what I am learning about now. I'm forever grateful grateful to her for being such an amazing teacher and sending me down a history loving passion.
I would honestly say that the Tank is also a very extensive contribution to war. Foot soldiers now had to deal with these massive behemoths on the field that were very good at getting rid of soldiers. I love that the german response was just: "Let's build a Mauser 98, but bigger", resulting in the Tankgewehr (Germans called them Tanks at the time).
Thank you. One minor point you should’ve added about the Nile river is that the current and the wind flow in different directions. The current flows north and the wind blows south which really turns the Nile into a highway. In addition after the flooding there’s a lot of fish around. Egyptians both built fishpond for them to get into and they had a whole industry of drying fish
One of the wacky Polish tactic during the Polish-Soviet war was when Poles found out the encryptions Soviets used and I don't know if it was our humour or if it was an idea of the moment, that we'd transmit on those channels contents of Bible. We did it in the crucial moments of Battle of Warsaw, adding another brick for our successful counteroffensive. However one of the most horrifying tactic I know (albeit kinda strange) was a frag grenade in a glass intended as a booby trap, either an invention of Soviet intervention in Afghanistan or Yugoslav wars (I'm more inclined to the latter version). It was meant to be put on top of slightly opened door or tied to something, so that when opened the glass would be pulled with the pin-pulled grenade, shatter on the ground and explode. "HUH, the fuse is several seconds, they'd have time to escape". Well, here's the "fun" part: frag grenade fuse (3-4s) when possible was switched for smoke grenade fuse (instant).
For your second point, i have heard of that before, from what i know they were called "afghan tulips", but when i search for it now i only really find the black tulip, which is something completely different. A cargo aircraft that became known during the ussr-afghanistan war.
Hi Mr Terry here is a female history teacher subscribed! Love your reactions and commentaries as a teacher too. In Argentina (where I teach) the ratio male-female is too incline to males in %.
I love the BlueJay reactions, and you add so much good information to the already great video! Edit: The comment from BlueJay about Missouri is accurate
RE female viewers /Appalachian Mountains - the Battle of Blair Mountain was introduced to me by a woman. The use of McIntyre Powder on miners was introduced to me by an MP linking to a page by a woman. The use of agent orange on students on a summer job in Northern Ontario (directing planes, purpose clearing brush on side of highways and railway tracks was introduced by the same MP. It was not all just CFB Gagetown/CIA or Vietnam. Women tend towards Indigenous, black and LGBTQ history since intersectional feminism is big right now. They see the enemy as capitalism, colonialism and patriarchy, in no particular order, and much of history you cover is about at least two of the three. I am watching the present video with the POV that history is repetitive since successful strategies get reused - and a history of strategy appeals to me. Egyptian history
The fact that the history profession is filled with mostly men just proves the age old adage that men will literally learn all about Rome before going to therapy... I know I did.
Mr. Terry, don't need a review but you should check out USS Texas recent drydocking and USS New Jersey is going in this week. Two Historic ships getting repaired and painted.
I was an education major in college and can confirm history classes were heavily dude controlled. Ditto my political philosophy class. It was a sad time. The heck with the algorithm.
Very proud to say that my mother is a history teacher. She is a professor at our local college. One of my favorite history teachers in high school was a woman. One of my favorite professors of history in college was also a woman. It's sadly correct, though that there are far too few women history teachers. Though I had many male teachers who were very influential as well, all of the above-stated women were very influential in fueling a love of history that I have today.
I heard from another TH-camr. I think it was history at the dark. Said the hunley's torpedo bomb thing was actually supposed to be on a delayed fuse but it didn't work properly so it just instantly exploded instead
That's anecdotal, of course, but at least most of my history teachers were women 😅I also preferred their teaching style. I had a male history teacher for a year in high school, and while he was very nice, and eager to tell us interesting stories, I don't think I learnt all that much during his lessons. Probably because he would mostly talk rather than pull out presentations, maps or use the textbook
9:49 honestly ship design falls off after WWII. I mean the Zumwalt? It’s a destroyer the size of the USS Arizona, plagued with problems, and to top it all off it looks awful, like a floating pyramid. It would be one thing if it were a good ship, but by most accounts it’s not even that.
As far as there not being airplane bombing runs in WWI, didn't they hand-drop small bombs or grenades out the passenger seat of the planes or was that just made up?
Can't help but think if there is any correlation between history and strategic thinking, since both history and strategy games are similarly male dominated genres...
Well. In the world of masc dominant history teaching profession. I guess my cousin is an abbreviation. Since she's a woman, queer and a doctor in modern history aaaand she's a history teacher and a Sabaton fan. So she constantly uses their songs in her classes.
Lies Mr Terry! WW1 planes def started bombing, although for a short period of time towards the end of the war and not accurately. They began by just flying over enemy positions and dropping grenades, but by the end of the war the first large-ish attached bombs with release mechanics and 2nd seat spotters with a downward scope were created. Again, not super accurate but still bombers.
I know what happened to the Francis Scott key bridge today. Yesterday he made a post on x sing he has evidence against Hillary Clinton. And just like everyone who has something on Hillary she had someone take the bridge out.🤣🤣 To soon for that joke??
You need to talk about more female people! Or ways in which women have been oppressed. There are plenty of amazing female leaders ect. You need to talk about them. That’s why tudors are popular for the females. Honestly, it’s not that hard.
We don’t need more women in the history occupations or circles, it’s that more women need to be interested in it. This disparity is self-selecting, they’re choosing not to be into it
Edit: So I did some quick research JK. I asked chatgpt and I think it had an insightful answer. I'll sum it up with this. Social norms, feedback loop of male history content creators, historically a male interest of study due to things like representation. Biased Algorithms. Etc. there's reasons why and but tbh, there's no cause for alarm as I believe naturally things will change and women and men will mix in interests more and more. Slowly but surely First draft: I think men are more interested in history because the representation thing. But hypothetically hearing about a bunch of woman conquerors and women dominating the world through atrocious means honestly wouldn't be so bad but we can only guess. - some history enjoying guy
The YT demographics show not that history is male-dominated, but that women just aren't as interested in the topic. You can't really gate keep anyone from watching TH-cam videos.
Mr Terry is a history teacher. Some of his students are female. It is not just about how well his videos do, but trying to get all his students interested in history. We both agree that Mr Terry is very knowledgeable in the subject he teaches?
I don't feel Bluejay is very educational. He clearly is unsuitable for the ears of our children with his anti-arch propaganda. And we all know deep down he just realizes he can never compare with our red bird. - Signed, a concerned Missourian
I enjoy history. I enjoy hearing about women in history. Part of your problem is the erasure of women in so much of what we consider "history." You have fifty percent of the population who were prohibited or impeded from taking part in war, national leadership roles, scholarship etc ... And even when women fought to be included, their contributions were attributed to men or overlooked altogether. I watch fashion HISTORY videos. I watch cooking HISTORY videos. I watch these because they reflect the real lives of women in history, these are areas where we still have some record of their contributions. Bet you TH-cam considers these to be cooking and fashion videos, rather than history videos, because history doesn't repeat itself but it definitely rhymes.
Maybe you could pander to women by doing vids about Korean history so they can learn about the culture their lovely K-pop idols came from. Alternatively, you could cover Japan but after WW2, when everyone in history stopped caring about Japan.

You need to look into the US submarine of the Revolution called the Turtle
It’s not just history, TH-cam skews heavily male except for true crime for whatever reason.
I would counter that the shelled or cartridge bullet is more important.
The obvious question is: what was the best river of all time?
At the battle they should have just used tanks or some missile strikes. An M1 Abrams wouldn’t have had any problem with those machine guns.
so is that where cat fight come from
Can you imagine what it smelled like in a civil war submarine?
And there was no air supply, so rapidly running out of oxygen in that smell.
As far as there not being airplane bombing runs in WWI, didn't they hand-drop small bombs or grenades out the passenger seat of the planes or was that just made up?
I would suggest a "Find Mr. Terry A Woman" group project, execpt most of us wouldn't know how to do that either.
I wondered how long it would take you to get to the Battle of the Bees.
U should get a hold of the fat electrician would be a good vid

ww2 battleships like the iowa class are awesome ships
