I'm sure there are other places I got something wrong or misspoke but one is definitely when I talked about Charlemagne. Charlemagne is from the FRENCH for Charles the Great. Not Latin, which would be Carolus Magnus.

I swear I've seen this video a million times and it never gets old.

Yep. Same.
Yup! His video getting more views till now!

TIL: "You could make a religion out o- No, don't." Wasn't just a random funny moment, but a historically accurate funny moment. Bill continues to amaze.
yeah, i was mind-blown right now, thinking that was just a little joke.
I thought it was just a joke but they actually tried to make it a religion

I really like this guy's channel. A lot of other you-tubers who make reaction videos just repeat what's been said in the video but this guy actually makes really valuable commentary that you can learn from. I really respect that.
Thank you, Catherine! I wouldn't do it if I didn't feel I could add something to what's already been said.
I always just laughed at, "you could make a religion out of this!" "no, don't," but having it explained that it almost did just makes the joke even funnier!
hey
That was fascinating, not just in terms of the History lessons, but it made me realize just how well researched that Bill Wurtz video is. For someone with no formal background in History, as far as I know, he did a terrific job covering things in a comprehensive and accurate manner (plus all the humour and musicianship).
Yeah he worked on it full time for like 10 month and it's show
It was worth it, I’m pretty sure this was the video that made him the multi million sub TH-cam he is
I would t really call it a comprehensive covering of things most places at any given time are covered in just a sentence or two. Obviously important places like China get a few over the video but saying “China broke” several times is more than a little watered down. Still a really cool and fun video but I can’t really call it comprehensive nor would I want it to be

@@VloggingThroughHistory Hey just so you are aware I'm fairly certain that languages without vowels still have vowels you just don't write out the vowels. So you have to know how to say the word before you can learn how to read it. The reason these languages most likely do this is probably because early humans were more concerned with identifying and writing out the consonants. This is a very common misconception similar to how some people think that click languages only use clicks which is also false. Anyways really enjoy your history video reactions. Also a good youtube channel about languages and their history is nativlang I believe it's called.

Indian here, as for your question: We don't really talk much about the West. We mainly focus on the middle east, central Asia, south Asia and SEA. We talk about China after the European influence in Asia increased a lot. So yeah, its kinda equal.
We learn about Egypt,China,Mesopotamia,the Greeks and the Romans in the ancient world and then directly learn about the Rennaisance,the French Revolution,the American Revolution,the Civil War and the World Wars.I don't remember learning much about the middle east apart from the birth and spread of the Abrahamic religions but I only took history till class 10 so perhaps it's taught in the higher classes or in other education boards.

I live in India and YES! We do actually talk very less about western history. Throughout middle school we learned solely about Indian history from the Indus Valley Civilization to British Colonization. (and some other non-Indian people because they documented some of the stuff) But yeah majorly India!
High school was a bit different, although I didnt pursue history for the second half of high school, we learnt majorly about the European revolutions (because they eventually led to Indian revolution) and the World Wars and Nazism. (because they too affected India)
Honestly the fact that we as Americans and westerners don't talk about Asian history because it's fascinating and like you said with the civil wars. So learning about Asian history by myself is intesting

Hello, South Korean here.
7:30
Yes, we learn a lot more about the prehistoric East than the West. We mostly focus on Korean, Japanese and Chinese history, while Europe and America are kind of mystified like a foreign concept, just like how a lot of Westerners mystify the East. In fact, there's a word that is similar to the west 's concept of "oriental" which is 欧米(in Japanese) or 欧美(in Korean and Chinese) which literally means Europe and America. It more or less refers to the stereotypical view of western culture.
The west also has a little-known term to refer to itself that corresponds to the eastern "orient"; its called "occident"
I do believe it's pronounced as oumei in chinese and obi in Japanese
@@antiradiationsnowy1536 Ōbei in Japanese

thx. Interesting!
I’m obsessed with this channel, because you’re amazing and I adore history
I almost decided to study history, but I ended up studying archaeology instead
Archaeology is an awesome way to study history though! Appreciate that, Stella
@@VloggingThroughHistory it is! Kind of why I chose it
In my Eastern European studies class, we discussed that one of the currently most accepted theories for how the Black Death entered Europe was through some Golden Horde invasions into Byzantine holdings in the Black Sea (most likely in Crimea), where the Mongols ended up catapulting members of their army that had perished from disease over the city walls. They left soon after and the disease spread from that city to the rest of the empire via the sea trade. Just kind of an interesting take on it for what it's worth.
When China comes back together and breaks over and over again, I just imagine a guy doing a one billion piece puzzle, and as soon as he places the last piece, something comedic happens causing the puzzle to break and the guy having to start the puzzle over again

I love watching history buffs react to this video. Especially when they give their input. A lot of people complain when people talk too much in reactions, but if that's the case, why would they come to watch a historian react to a history video? Of course people are going to pause and talk when there's a chance for a teaching moment. Especially when the video reaches whatever their specialty wheelhouse is. Getting from the Minoans to Alexander would take me hours. Then another couple hours between Alexander and the end of the Ptolemaic Dynasty.
I know right? The same for me and the 30 year war. I've studied history to become a history teacher and our studies barely scratched the surface. Even now I have to do research for every subject I teach, since I have to know sooooo much, just to decide what NOT to teach.
I remember this video coming out right before my AP World History exam and I learned more while watching that whole video then I did the entire school year

From what I understand, Luther nailing his theses to the church door wasn't the bold act some think it was (or at least the nailing part wasn't), but rather was the normal way to post public notices at the time. The church door was the town bulletin board.
Yep, I believe that to be true as well. A lot of people believe the door was red, leading to the red doors of Lutheran churches, but this is just a legend as far as I know.
Yeah the more striking part was the fact that he disagreed with the church and felt so strongly that he posted a bulletin to everyone. It was a huge middle finger, but the whole posting it thing was common. Just not common to do with those beliefs.
So actually, he posted it on the door in Latin, in order to address the higher up levels of the Catholic Church. The general populous couldn't read Latin, so someone takes it, translates it and uses the printing press in into the vernacular which was German at the time, and makes a lot of copies. But Luther's original intention was just to inform the Church clergy that what they were doing was wrong, not to start a whole Reformation.
@@annabellefrederick4992 Yes and no. He did write it in Latin but what people have to consider that the Wittenberger Schlosskirche was also the university church. The University church was also often used as a Auditorium (often even as the Autitorium maximus aka the biggest lecture hall in a university) and it was rather commonplace to post your disputations on the church door. And Latin was used because it was the language of the scholars at the time. So the reason for the language was less to inform the clergy but more because it was meant as a scientific paper which were almost allways in latin at the time.
But it should also be said that theres a dispute among historians if the posting actually happened in the way as its normally potrayed. The problem is that there arent really any eyewitness accounts for it and that the first real mention of the event only came after Luthers death. But there was a note from Georg Rörer (Luthers secretary) that was found in 2006 and most likley dates back to 1540-1545 which states that Luthers theses were posted on several churchdoors in Wittenberg which makes it possible that this got turned into the story as we know it later on. But this note is also disputed because Rörer also wasnt a eyewitness so its only a possibility than a historic fact.

Hebrew actually has vowels, they're just invisible, and I mean that literally. You're kind of supposed to guess what vowels an unknown word has. For beginner Hebrew, there are nikudote. The Torah includes nikudote, but they're typically omitted from everyday use for ease of writing, similar to the adoption of lowercase letters.
Yes! I was kind of annoyed by that comment, Hebrew is not made out of click sounds so of course it has vowels
That’s really interesting! Thank you for sharing that, I’ve always enjoyed hearing Hebrew spoken but didn’t know how the vowels worked
Yeah, the vowels are kind of "understood" based on the conjugation of the word. A native speaker would be able to tell roughly what vowels are in the word based on its form, and they are usually fairly intuitive. Vowel markings are used by people learning the language, children, or for uncommon/borrowed words.
I am now wondering if you speak Hebrew because your explanation is good
Damn, imagine talking a language where you have to guess how a word sounds. But then again, there's Chinese, where you're screwed if you don't know how this particular hanzi sounds

We learn about 'Manifest Destiny' for the US in English schools. It's insane how many features/factors are involved in it.
Manifest Destiny was a big part of school in Canada, largely because Canada spent a lot of time being afraid of it.
At what level? I'm guessing GCSE/A-Level History, because it definitely isn't universal here. We don't learn a lot of British history before 1900 besides the Tudor era and a unit on the Triangle Trade, to be fair. It would be a lot better if English students learned about the things colonial Britain did, since among other things we invented Concentration Camps during the Boer War.

Really really awesome to be able to watch this video with you.
Ahh, the video that led me to channels like CPG Gray, Oversimplifed, Extra Credits, ect. then these awesome reaction channels. Funny to see things come full circle. Entertaiment i never knew i needed. Thank u BillWutz. 🙌🏾

Everyone expected the spanish inquisition.
They had to give several days advance notice.
But did anyone expect the several days advance notice?
yeah, a month's notice was the usual procedure I think.
It is a meme bro
it was a joke
@@prollyhawaiian1953 A joke which they didn't get apparently.
Its gotten better at teaching the first civilizations where I was at least in the US. We first learned about Mesopotamia, Egypt, and China in sixth grade, and than later on I remember learning about the Indus River Valley Civilization. I feel like the amount of education one gets about the rest of the world in a US school, depends on the quality and placement of the school.
Yeah I learned about every dynasty in advanced history. And before that we learned about Mesopotamia. It really does depend on classes you take
middle school went over those and now with my high school, every year we have a history class dedicated to a different part of the world. Can definitely say placement is a part of it though because I used to live in the North part of the US (I live in the South now) and I learned about Mexico more than I did American history and history from any other part of the world up there.
That’s exactly the order my school did it
I like that you add even more knowledge to the video!
Can't believe this has been a year ago. Awesome to see your channel grow so much.
Israeli here, we do have vowels, but not in letters. We use special signs above or below our letters. It's pronounced like Jehovah but with a y
Same with Arabic then
מה קורה אחי
I don’t mind that you skipped the beginning because I have in fact watched that video a million times already LOL
Also that enters a more scientific part of history, which he most likely ain't an expert with as he probably only* studies the human part instead
6 months ago you had 10k and now your 190k on a channel with long form history content, your killing it man! Keep it up!
this was such a good react! adding knowledge instead of being annoyed at Bill for not including certain things.
18:19! Trust me,You’re not offending me! I’m Muslim,The prophet Muhammad would let people speak their mind. #freedomofspeech! I love getting outside perspective on Islam ☪️ because I was born and raised in it ahahaha 👍💜
Appreciate that!
Somewhat off topic, if you want to read some outside perspectives on Islam, the US history with Morocco is long and fascinating.
The Sultan of Morocco was the first head of State to publicly recognize the newly Independent US in December 1777. This makes Morocco the oldest public friend of the US. You can find comments on Morocco, and by extension Islam, starting with many of the founding fathers, including Washington and Jefferson.
Random tidbits to see if they spark interest -
The Moroccan-American Treaty of Friendship was sign in 1786(renegotiated in 1836), 3 years before the US Constitution was written. It is still in effect 234 years later, the oldest unbroken treaty relationship in US history.
The American Legation in Tangier is the only US National Historic Landmark not in the US.
The relationship has been beneficial for both countries. Some of the arms and supplies sent to the US from European came through Morocco before those countries joined the war.
When much of Africa was being carved up by Europe in the 19th century, England and France both wanted control of Morocco. At the time the US was not a military great power, but was an up and coming economic power, especially in agriculture.
The US could not directly prevent England or France from taking control of Morocco, but it did help Morocco secure better treatment. The over-simplified reason is the US said if you don't do what we want/treat Morocco well, we will cut trade with you while increasing trade to the other country.
Morocco and the US have continued to expand and improve in recent decades. A free trade agreement was signed in 2004.
It is fun to have 2+ centuries of perspectives to look at.

Nice
i agree too
@@Sinvare everywhere i go i have to hear that lol
If I could go back in time to when I graduated high school, I'd have gone to college and studied linguistics. It's so fascinating.
You still could. Never too late to learn something. Keep learning.
@@yoslo6832 This is true, however I can't afford to quit my job and go back to school
You can study linguistics online for free. Search for Bill Gates open textbooks.
great commentary on a super informative video! subscribed
It is great that you know some historical importance of india 🇮🇳 but also thanks for your videos they are very fun to watch.
Here in Vietnam we learn history from mostly every continents from Westerners to Asians. And we have it divided into two categories: history outside of Vietnam and Vietnam's history. So basically we do learn the westerners' habitats but only the basics
If you were a teacher, or somehow you were in my life, I would be so much more educated on history. I'd also love learning. I'm 43, and have found joy in learning again.
I'm Croatian and we learned history of early civilizations, then focused mostly on Europe and then Croatia (my country dates back to the 7th century so there's a lot to cover), but we learned about African, North and South American and Asian history too, just not too many details about them.
Dude, finding out that my favorite historian/ history TH-camr, is a fellow Christian, made my day
Your gaining tons of subs, 1-2 weeks ago you were at 15k, now your at 20k congrats!
Yeah, had 1200 in one day on Sunday, crazy!
The growth from this channel is insane and well deserved! Talking about 10k in this video, and a few months later, you’re not far off 200k! I love this channel, I love the history lessons too! Honestly massively deserved the subs you are getting! Much Love from the UK! 🇬🇧❤️
16:41 according to my greek boyfriend barbarian is a greek word not italian or latin from the word barbaros describing all foriners (because when they talk all greek ppl hear is barbarbarbar... )

This is true I remember my history teacher telling us exactly this: “Water is life” and immediately proved the point by teaching us about the first civilizations...
And also if you’ve noticed most of capital cities are right next to water like my country, The Philippines our capital is literally right next to a bay (on the west) and a river (on the center) which goes to a huge bay on the east!
