As a history buff, I think Oversimplified has a real gift for making history more exciting and entertaining for everyone while keeping the facts in place Great video btw
@@jasonhill2879 of course, this could never substitute a real academic history class, but it's fun to get the overview and look into it more later. And if someone already have taken those history classes like me, then this is more for entertainment.
What is also more interesting to me (being a science and a bit of a history nerd) was the amount of work and mindsets that we’re in play with developing the bombs and then subsequent users of them. Later of course was Chernobyl which is still significant to this day.
About the immense size difference on the map between USA and Russia. It‘s because of the Mercator projection method (unwrapping a sphere to a plane). Because it is further north, Russia seems to be four times the size of USA, when in reality it‘s just about double. Same as Canada, which looks huge, but is about the same as the US. Greenland looks even bigger, but Africa is 14 times it’s size. Mercator was invented because it allows straight lines in navigation. And we got used to this way of looking at maps. But don‘t let sizes fool you.
@@user-Jay178 more socialist ,the country was free and booming in economy. People were free to come and go. Leader Tito organized a 3rd world block the unsorted,nobody mentins that...the largest block in the world
That's Kim-il Sung... the glorious leader and absolute ruler of North Korea from 1945 to now... you might be asking, what about his son and his grandson Kim-Jong il and Kim-Jong Un... no... the North Korean government still recognises him as the ruler of North Korea... he's like a God... just like ancient Israel had God as it's absolute ruler
I'd highly recommend checking out John D. Ruddy, who also does similar animated history videos, including WW2 and Cold War, but also the French Revolution and Napoleonic Wars, the Vietnam War, the Russian Revolution, the 1916 Easter Rising, and even the U.S. Presidents from Washington to Trump.

kj Bro it only misses out the minor facts though
It’s Kim Jong Un’s (current North Korea leader) grandad
Shut up! He's not my grandad!
@@SisterofBattle how the hell is it possible that Kim Il-Sung is not your grandad?
The Death Of Stalin is a brilliantly funny movie, if you haven't seen it check it out.
What's amazing is how much of the comedy is actually true
I just learned Steve Buscemi's in it & they all talk like themselves. I think I will check it out after all.
That's to show how Russia is actually a land of many different accents.
Fordo007 almost all of it is true which is incredible
Fordo007 It actually isnt true

I hope that "W@r" is to avoid demonitization, and not copyright

3:10 the soviet union invaded in 1945 manchurai with 1.5 million men and reatched to north korea
The leader of South Korea at the outbreak of the Korean War was Syngman Rhee
SovietUnion.exe has stopped working.
Great choice, guys!
It was the grandad of the current ruler of North Korea
Best.Intro.Ever.
Mario where I can find your reaction only to this video?
8:43 He didn't mention how South Korea is no longer a dictatorship, but North Korea still is.
Fandom guy The DPRK is Democratic
You guys probably have the answer already.... but that was Kim il Sung, Kim Jong Un's grandfather
Yugoslavia was NOT under soviet rule! Learn your history!
Yeah but it was still communist.

Hey, can you guys make the video a bit "bigger" if you get what I mean?
11:37 that’s what I said
Was that intro English?

Kim il sung is Kim jong ils dad and Uns granddaddy

Explains why NK leaders are always megalomaniacs. How could something like that NOT go straight to your head.
