A gentleman knew how to present himself and articulate his thoughts in the best and most polite, even noble, manner. Had either of them not done so, they would have embarrassed their respective nations and themselves.

    As an Australian anglophile, I love that you have a positive view of Britain. I'd love to see you do a reaction about something Australian-centric. Both the Gallipoli (WWI) and Kokoda (WWII) campaigns played hugely important roles in forming Australia's identity, and though it is often spoken about here, I rarely see it given much attention outside of Australia and New Zealand. I would love to see your take on it.

    • @hitomisalazar4073
      @hitomisalazar4073 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Funny enough Gallipoli was talked about quite a bit in my standard public education where I grew up in the USA (the Pacific Northwest). Mostly because when it came to WW2 we focused on the Pacific Theater. Meaning there was a lot of talk of Amphibious operations. Naturally going back to Gallipoli and what a disaster it was. How most nations declared opposed landings just weren't possible in the modern world due to the failure. And how the US Navy basically said: "Here, hold my beer while I figure this one out" instead in over analyzing it and figuring out what is modern amphibious warfare from it (including several specialized inventions created to solve the problems from it).
      But it was usually in that context.
      But definitely is an episode of history that could use more spotlight. It's such a key turning point for both Australia and Turkey.

    • @johnalden5821
      @johnalden5821 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      As president, Adams ran afoul of the very bitter divisions of the first party system. Generally considered a Federalist, Adams considered himself above party politics, and the actual Federalists (Hamilton being the chief) considered him ineffective. The Jeffersonians (falsely) claimed he was a "monarchist." In the end, he did outflank the revolutionary French government, which was trying to suborn American interests to its own. The Alien and Sedition Acts were a bad mistake, but we forget that party conflict was a new thing in the country, and there was every indication that the pro-French elements of the D-R Party were not playing footsie.

    Commenting on your channel from across the pond. It's too easy and simplistic to go along with a lot of the rest of Europe's narrative about the problems with the USA. And although like every country America certainly does have it's problems, I'm a big fan of many aspects of your nation and absolutely will be visiting some day in the not-too-distant future. We share so much in the way of values and traditions and aspirations for the world at large and are far far better off being closely allied than at loggerheads.

    When 9/11 happened, a good chunk of Britain felt *personally* affronted as if it had occurred in our own realm. There's a reason that the British public started off supporting going to Afghan for war; the Anglosphere had been harmed.
    Equally, and this is anecdotal, when my mother visited the US she saw several times where Americans would thank British (and Australian) service personnel for their service as if they were American soldiers.
    The Anglosphere has simply returned to its natural state; the Anglo Saxon multi-kingdom model, where we have different Kings, different policies, but by Gods if you attack one you attack us all.

      @@yannick4895 Yes that is History Matters' style. There is a lot of content to fit in a short period of time, so quick background images and oblique references are a major component of the discourse. Doing quick pauses, with frequent backups, to help catch everything will be a good task for a reactor to perform.

    One factor that helped the rapprochement was that the U.S. and the British were able to settle their border disputes pretty much during the first half of the 19th century. The Oregon Treaty of 1846 settled the boundaries between the Oregon Territory and what became British Columbia, and the Webster-Ashburton Treaty of 1842 settled the line between New Brunswick and Maine. Those agreements paved the way and set the conditions for a peaceful border, allowing for U.S.-Canadian relations to develop well over time. Proof that sound diplomacy really is the best long-term solution to potential conflicts.

    I think it is agreed by most historians that the last time the USA and the UK had a real threat of going to war with each other was the Trent Affairs in. When a US ship forced a UK vessel to turn over its Confederate States of America Diplomats. One Warvat a time" Lincoln said in resolving the matter. It was uphill from there.

    In the John Adams Miniseries, the scene where Adams meets King George, for one quick cut, after the king said he would be the first to meet the US as an independent power and Adams says thank you, they showed the king lean back and let out a smile. I'd like to believe when he did that, in his mind he said, "Ya cheeky Brits. Bloody genius with this United States idea ya got there."

    I love that they tried to get the actors to do the varieties of British and American accents that would have common in those times and places, in the John Adams mini-series. So rarely attempted, even though they're not hard to reconstruct with some accuracy because historical linguistics has become quite a sophisticated field of study.

    We did not secede from Britain because we hated the British. In fact, the vast majority of the colonists were proud to be British because they felt they had more freedom to live their lives than anywhere else on earth. However, parliament began to rule the colonies more directly with new laws and taxes. The colonists protested believing they were an assault on their historic rights as Englishmen. Still, the colonies petitioned the King hoping for a peaceful reconcilation. When it was clear the King and Parliament would not listen. That's when we declared independence.
