- 📜 The First Opium War - Part 1 - Extra History
In 1792, Great Britain had just come out of an expensive war that cost them their control over many of their colonies in North America. Other wars had also cost them their access to the silver mines of South America, which had been helping fund so much of their trade with the Qing Dynasty of China. European traders all wanted greater access to China, but the Emperor was wary of letting outsiders too far into his country and kept them all penned up at the port of Canton, which was strictly regulated by the Hong business group. A flourishing blackmarket trade grew, but Britain wanted more. One trader, acting on his own initiative, grew bold enough to approach Beijing and attempt to get a hearing over his trade grievances, but the Chinese considered this a huge breach of protocol and an offense to the Emperor. Britain had to do something, however: they imported over 10 million pounds of tea each year, equal to 10% of the government's annual spending, and the fact that China did not have anywhere near as great an interest in British products meant that they were running an enormous trade deficit they could no longer sustain. The Crown appointed an official envoy, Earl George Macartney, with orders to end the Canton system, establish an embassy, and acquire rights to an island that would be under British control in the same way that the Portuguese controlled Macao. The mission failed spectacularly. Although Macartney got permission to sail north and meet the Qianlong Emperor in his summer palace at Jehol, he refused to perform the traditional kowtow which was required upon meeting the Emperor. He presented gifts from the British court, but the Chinese interpreted these gifts as tribute, not trade enticements, and decided they had no need for nor interest in what he offered. Since he failed to get them to agree to any of his three requests, Britain wanted to find another way to address the trade imbalance with China. Soon, this would lead them to start bringing in opium.

Amid the wars that tore apart Italy, one small town became an unexpected haven of justice and knowledge: Urbino.
----- Support the show on Patreon and tell us what you'd like to learn about! bit.ly/EHPatreon
do one on the borgia
I must say this was the first extra history that I knew nothing about
+Yog Sothoth yeah totally i had atleastnjere about the other ones but this was totally new to me
you guys should do one on either (or both) the eradication of smallpox or the rise of the labor movement in America, maybe even include the mine wars of West Virginia.
I would love to hear more about the Glorious Revolution
So he was strong, smart, savvy, AND honorable? He was leader who loved his wife and walked among his people? God what a shining exemplar of a human being.
Ofc he died young and left no legacy to speak of. XD
Something we are more then likely never gonna see again nowadays
Anthony Clay he also Killed people......
He is how rulers should act, honorable yet savvy, incorruptible yet bias to the people.
Total Mary Sue
"Ah crap, I forgot to pay you, I'm sorry!"
"Don't worry about it, my lord!"
"NO, I'm worrying about it. Sue me."
"Y-you serious, my lord?"
"YES I'M SERIOUS! HABEAS CORPUS ME MAN, NOBODY'S ABOVE THE LAW. SUE ME"
That's integrity.
Federico Da Montefeltro 2016!!!
That's how a ruler should be. Man, woman, emperor or baron, to be good you need to be just as human and fallible as your subjects.
#MakeUrbinoGreatSgain!
I have half a mind to think that this is where the phrase "Eh, sue me." Comes from. XD
...
I have a new favorite One-Province Minor in EUIV.
Guard Urbino like Federico did!
Extra Credits ...I'll do my best, but I'm not that good at EUIV.
If you want to do a little two player OPM game of EUIV let me know :D
+Extra Credits small question: Why he had just one eye ?
my thoughts exactly
5 star ruler all around.
Juliano Camargo he's a 666 capability
Level 5 advisors if you count the update with 6/6/6 capability of consort along with himself as 3 star general of 6/6/6 ruler.
Juliano Camargo I get it! Too much eu4
i just have the imbecile trait ohh wrong game
In eu4 he is super undervalued. And his heir should be a 5/5/1, really good diplomat and statesman, bad soldier
Federico sounds like one of those kings in fantasy settings who are way too good and just to be believable.
He ruled over 5000 people in a small land. Its a bit different than ruling over 60+ million in very different areas.
He's the model for all of those fairytale kings.
@@simonenoli4418 And imagine if he did
Great, know we just need an Extra History on the Unification of Italy.
YES! YES! PLEASE MAKE IT HAPPEN
They should do the Borgias. ALL the Borgias.
^This
#TrueFacts
+Gracielo Barteza true, but I would still want them to do Italian unification first.
Urbino gets some recognition finally? There is justice in the universe.
heavyweaponsgaming who here lives near urbino
In Crusader Kings 2 Urbino is a province of its own.
@@megicche Me too
@@rokkfel4999 I live in Urbino lol
@@rokkfel4999 MEH
I'm Italian and I studied the paintings of Piero della Francesca, commissioned by Federico da Montefeltro that depict him and his wife, I found this video very fascinating, I discovered many things I didn't know about this character
Goddamn Borgias, it would be awesome if one day we got a series on all the shit the Borgias shaped and ruined
Ought to be interesting. I find theirs the most fascinating story in the Renaissance. Rarely do you get such a colorful concentration of characters in a single family.
I'd want one on the Medici or Sforza
The thing is, both Pope Alex VI and Cesare are overrated when you consider their impact on the world. Cesare never accomplished anything lasting and Alex VI was only slightly more extravagant and not that much more corrupt than the average pope of is time. Our memory of them is clouded because they became prototypes for the truly ruinous Medici popes later on. For all his failings Alex VI didn't split the Church the way Leo X did with his stupid Indulgence selling, especially because he was alert enough to rapidly neutralize Savonarola unlike Leo X who just sat on his fat ass while Martin Luther was lining up German princes behind him. He also got along well with the Christian monarchs unlike Clement VII who got empy Charles V pissed off enough to sic 30,000 Lutheran Landsknechts on Rome.
+Andrew Suryali - Largely agreed about Rodrigo, but Cesare most definitely did have a lasting impact. Directly, he annexed a lot of territory in Romagna to the Papal States that had previously been tributary to the pope but never actually part of his domains. Indirectly though, his impact was huge. By the end of his conquest, the only truly independent powers left in Italy were Venice, Genoa, the Papal States and Tuscany, and this shift in power dynamic was a major cause of the Italian Wars later on.
anas moin
Cesare was the best.
"We need a name for our small town. How about... Small Town?"
"And we shall rule over this land. And we will call it... this land."
Genius
Is this an italian joke
This guy sounds too good to be true. Would that history had seen more men like this.
Would that the present has more men like this
we had then and have then, but is like every time some one is outstanding like Federico life kill then or makes sure they dont have kids
i knew this young, smart, awesome, funny, hard working, well like, help full and honorable guy ... he die of a horrible cancer .. and it was heartbreaking
The renaissance is full of them, look up Cosimo di Giovanni de' Medici (the elder) and to some degree Francesco I Sforza. He was named Sforza (means Force in Italian) because he was so immensely strong, I am almost certain that he is the real life inspiration for 'the mountain' in Game of Thrones, but he was far more of a good person, although few can compare to Frederico da Montefeltro in terms of renaissance decency of humanity.
@@Dennis-zk4bn Ahem... Sforza is an Italian family that acquired power through mercenary prowess and its ruling over Milan, and it is a proper family name not a title.
Nelson Smith
Imagine putting fallen kingdom on this, neat 👌
actually, I am in Urbino for univesity, I'm in love with this place. the atmosphere (like the palace with snow) is simply unbelievable. I recommend you to visit urbino
Because of this video I developed an interest in that region and actually went to Urbino this year. Really jealous of all the students that get to stay there longer
I went there because of the deep impression made on me by reading Castiglione's Book of the Courtier. It was beautiful and surprisingly austere. Would like to re-visit and see Rafael's house and other sights.
Yet another great figure of history, ignored or forgotten by the mainstream.
For every great forgotten non-European figure, there are hundreds of equally great forgotten European figures.
That's because Westerners started writing so late in the game. And so much of it was written by monks who put a religious slant on everything.
+Darth Armot I wouldn't be too sure of that. There were probably a lot of great non-european figures who never contributed to modern society, because the society they lived in was destroyed somewhere in time. Given that Europe wasn't the dominant population center for so long, I'd imagine there were tons more non european figures who were great than those who were... however, that whatever great achievements they did never accomplished anything that lasts till today basically nullfies their role in history, leaving the europeans who are still standing the only great ones we care about.
I don't believe we should care about the losers across time in history anymore than to consider why they lost. If their work is still applicable to modern society, then they haven't truly failed, but if we've since surpassed whatever achievement they made by western hands, their achievement is useless, because their accomplishment didn't last or benefit all of mankind like those that western hands have done.
Most of Tesla's work, for example, is useless, because he couldn't communicate his brilliance to others. We had to reinvent it without him, and thus who cares that he did it first. He didn't enable us to do it second, third, etc... that Edison was an asshole, however, should stand in the history books. Even if only as a lesson that yes, assholes can get ahead in life... I'm looking at you Disney, and your ridiculous copyright manipulation.
mathig nihilcek
Yeah, but those non-europeans wrote it down so they weren't forgotten. Stuff like Byzantium and Chinese history is well recorded and those figures won't be forgotten. Many figures from Fracs and Alemanni WERE forgotten because nobody wrote it down. Europe was being shaped by those people and we know so little we called it a Dark Age.
Well that's because he was a humanist. Not exactly a popular philosophy in this capitalist world of ours where the rich and powerful are revered as gods exempt from the petty morals, accountability, responsibility us mere mortals are held to.
Such a sad yet inspiring lesson from history. Even as one person, if you can change your homeland, you may end up changing the entire world; and even war and destruction cannot extinguish those passions, once they're set ablaze around the globe.
Why did Assassin's Creed 2 never bring up this guy? Sounds like he'd be a perfect fit for that game.
I mean, they did, they just named him Ezio Auditore. In my opinion. ;D
Couldnt have thinked of someone better to give a different name myself.
+Extra Credits that makes sense:
he ruled over a city (in ezio's case a villa), and it was great and intellectual and equal, but eventually it was destroyed by the borgia (AC brotherhood)
"There are men after those Keys."
"What kind of men?"
"Those who do not read...(well they did, but not for fun or to understand world)"
+Extra Credits Ahhh..
If this isn't a 6/6/6 ruler, IDK what is.
also a three star general.
He's a 4/3/5 though
@@Rert wait....6/6/6....(
random steam forums shitposter HOW?
How DARE you!? He is clearly one of the few 7/7/7 ruler(caused by glitch)
Being paid large sums of money to do literally nothing? So he was an executive of his day eh?
Well he was also a politician I guess :D
It's more like if you paid Trump to not run for President.
More like the mafia of his day.
no, they were paying him to basically NOT ruin their day, unlike Executives who get paid despite it.
The man was clearly a very competent individual in........all aspects apparently.
He was a CAO. Chief Asswhuppin' Officer.
Visitid Urbino today because of this video, the city was absolutely amazing!
Also: One of the very first buildings of its era to have indoor plumbing. The palace is a sight to behold!
Fredrico is the guy I wanted to be when I was younger.
Now I'm an internet troll. I guess you win some, you lose some.
LeiosOS that's how life goes
At least you admit you’re troll.
Not act like “Know it All” person. Which I can admit I be such person sometime.
didn't expect to see you here, love you channel. keep up the god work
Ambitions to be Caesar end up as Jester.
@@mlgcactus1035 that's how settling for less goes
I'm from Urbino, thank you for making this wonderful video about the history of my beloved city.
Best mercenary tactic ever, having people pay him to not get involved :P
Didn't someone at some point say "Isn't that cheating?"
We'll if you're the best of the best no one will argue.
burnerheinz Exactly.
"Hey, you work for years to establish yourself as a man with the honor and skill deserving of such a contract, and you can take some."
Well if you want the best you pay for the best...
To not kill you..
"She was, by all accounts, brilliant, talented.."
My mind:"AND ITALIC!"
When hearing about the history of Italy I often hear the name Borgia pop up. Usually in tandem with bad news. Think you could do an Extra History on them sometime?
Anyway, thanks for the episode! =w= b
+Natasel they were even incestuous like the Lannisters.
Why let a little incest get in the way of a good crusade?
The Borgias are the Italian Walpoles
The Borgias along with The Medicis were some of the great rich dynasties that is mostly known for paying patronage to artists and architechts, writers, poets, oh and for being corrupt as dirt. dirty dirt.
The funny thing is, they were Spaniards who came to Italy to ride on the coattails of their relative the Pope.
Well done as always. As an italian person I thank you for covering a piece of our history that is rarely taught about even in school.
I always did despise people who go back on their word or betray people they are sworn too. To see a man not willing to break agreements he made, along with making sure his home was safe and people cared for along with being honorable, truly he was a light shining in the darkness.
I lived in Urbino for 3 years, it's a magical city.
One thing that I found spectacular was the studiolo inside the palace (a room where Federico used to study). All the wood structures inside the room are decorated with a technique called Intarsia which I have never seen before and produces an amazing effect with great depth that is almost hard to believe when you see it. Also the great painter Raphael was born at Urbino one year after the death of Federico.
It is a small but amazing place.
hai fatto farmacia 😊
Can I request that you PLEASE do a video series on the Duke of Marlborough?! Awesome guy that barely anyone knows about in the UK, despite him having a famous ancestor - Winston Churchill. From pretty much penniless noble after the Civil War, he left behind Blenheim Palace, one of the biggest mansions in England. Basically stopped Louis XIV from ruling the world and held together a fragile alliance of England, Netherlands and Austria, despite political upheaval and betrayal from close friends. Loved his wife Sarah all his life, despite her friendship with Queen Anne souring. Really cool story - check it out sometime!
I don't mean to be picky, but it's confusing when you say ancestor when you mean descendant. (ancestor = older, descendant = younger)
Question: did you mix up the word ancestor and descendant or is the Duke a time traveler?
Frederico sounds so awesome. It's so nice to hear there were people out there who were genuinely wonderful human beings.
Where is Lies for the Opium Wars? It'll be out next week! We wanted to include some extra Lies for this episode about Urbino, so it only made sense to add that to our regular Lies episode.
Please do the Borgia next
Question, are concidering doing a serie about the golden age of the dutch empire?
How a smal country can became a Huge empire :P
TBH I never watch the lies episodes.
BORGIAS 4 THE WINZ
I can't thank you enough for this episode.
As a man from Italy who sadly can't stay in the land where his heart and soul reside, I'm always happy to hear something about our culture or history that I didn't hear before. And I didn't know about Montefeltro up until now.
Seeing that people like him lived and helped people thrive in a time filled with war and uncertainty made me smile.
Grazie mille, amici.
Urbino is one of my favourite cities in my country. I'm not only attached to the beauty of this city and especially of Federico's palace but also to one man born in this city that unfortunately couldn't meet Federico because he would be born a year after the duke's death: a sublime painter and a charming young man by the name of Raffaello Sanzio. He is my favourite painter from Reinessance and when I visited Urbino I couldn't avoid a visit to his house! If you're doing a trip to Italy, Urbino is one of the cities you HAVE to visit. is the hidden jewel of our country.
Short videos on cities and the unique individuals who ruled them are a fantastic idea! Hope to see more Urbinos in future episodes. :)
These one-off videos about obscure topics are really nice. I'd love to see more.
Man, i love these kinds of people like Federico. Witty, just, respectful, but not pure in a "white knight" way.
Cunning, but honorful. May his legacy be honored.
Of course. There's nothing to be gained or had by being Stupid Good or Lawful Stupid.
wait, did he have only one eye?
No, he just winks a lot.
I may be wrong, but I thought he lost it in a tourney.
I figured he did.
noukami22 that's what I thought at first...
After the loss of an eye, Federico had surgeons remove the bridge of his nose.
You could really make a separate channel for Extra History. It's big enough to warrant it and completely unrelated to Extra Credits.
I would definitely be watching both though.
The reason Extra History is on the same channel is so people who ordinarily wouldn't be interested in history might watch it.
If they did that then I would only be subbed to that channel and not this one. I would miss out on some really cool videos they do about gaming.
What about this new innovative thing. Subbing to more than one channel for content you want to see
Gabriel Joyce
But I wouldn't. I just view the green ones on whims.

I will cherish Urbino del Italia for what it represented. Kudos to a man-and-woman team who could accomplish so much.
1. Great Episode. I haven't even heard of Urbino before this episode.
2. CONTINUE DOING THESE EXTRA HISTORIES! They are always me something to watch, and I re watch them every week.
3. I suggest The Romance of the 3 Kingdoms. It would be one of the first times you would be able to really cover China, and would give you so many chances to cover art, politics, war strategy, etc. It would be hard for you to really cover everything that happened, but it would be Awesome if you could find some way to do it nevertheless. I can't contribute on Patreon because of my status as a minor, so it would mean so much more to me if you did cover it.
Getting paid for non-aggression pacts ? An idea worthy of Walpole !
This dude is now become my favorite historic character :) Just perfect ! Thanks for sharing that knowledge. This channel = best channel of the world !
Federico da Montefeltro is the hero we need today
Mans the definiton of "not the hero we deserved but the hero we needed"
I studied in the University of Urbino and I can assure you can feel the vibrant past even if it's long gone. The architecture is astonishing. Must see.
The Borgias destroyed Urbino? YOU HAD ONE JOB, EZIO! ONE JOB!
to be fair i think ezio was busy screwing people at venice at the time or something
azzam daffa Nurfaiq
This seems likely.
Man, we need someone like that in power today.
Doing a study abroad in Urbino right now! Getting this video in my recommendations was well placed :)
Me after watching:
Brb, playing Urbino on Europa Universalis 4.
Ya know somethin', I find it a huge blessing to have found this channel.
Thanks for another awesome video/lesson! 😄
wonderful short-film about my hometown, thanks!!
I had REAL MAJOR GOOSEBUMPS on the last 30 seconds. Thank you, Federico! The world has been a lot better because of minds like yours!
I would love to learn about Francesco Sforza, a man who would go from mercenary to the Duke of Milan.
Ciao, solo di passaggio per dirti che sono un suo pronipote, e che vengo dalla Francia! Viva la mia famiglia, la Famiglia Montefeltro!
Do a series on Otto Von Bismark
That would be interesting. There's some Polish kings that would be interesting too, on the subject of Eastern European history.
Yes please!
They really Otto do that. I'll Bismark this page, just in case they do. >.>
yes!!!
Breakfast With Otto!
Thank you for appreciating Urbino, I'm studying art here and I really feel like the city deserves more recognition
Officially added to my "If can time travel, must meet" list
Man... One minute more of that sweet talking and I would've fallen in love with a guy I never heard a word about 8 minutes ago.
you know who brought war to urbino
it was Walpole
OKAY WHO IS WALPOLE!?!?!
Robert Walpole; first prime minister of England and all-round meddler. He became an inside joke among the Extra History videos.
trethestar you better be joking
I'm the only one that totally loves the beginning animation of extra history?
Man I love this series. Not just the longer ones, but these inspiring little one-shots. Great stuff, guys.
Please make an Extra History about the Borgias
By the way, I really love your drawings. And I very much appreciate that you draw Federico's face with his notorious missing eye. He lost it during a joust and in order to be able to see from both sides, he even cut part of his nose! He was kinda ugly but Battista loved him nonetheless. True love indeed. :)
This! This is why I love Extra History. I had never even heard on Urbino before I sat down to watch this episode. Now, I am searching for books to learn more of the men and women that helped to shape the world we live in. This series has fueled that love of learning where we came from and how we got here, as well as drives the questions to consider where we are going and who will lead us there. I love this series so much, and will wait anxiously for the next episodes. Thanks to the extra credits staff for making great content. You all are awesome and inspiring.
of all the extra history's I have seen, This is the first that has made me do actual research. That said, I doubt you will read this one comment, but I would like to thank you for providing a service to the people of the internet. I have heard names of people and places I would otherwise not hear. I have learned personal lessons from the people and events that you have described. So thank you.Your channel has in fact inspired me to create my own channel for spreading information.
CAN YOU MAKE ONE EPISODE ON CESARE BORGIA?
hell yhea
A series on the Borgias would be much better.
juan arias yhea now that i think about it yhea
then play assassin's creed 2 and assassin's creed brotherhood
You can watch the borgias (the one with Jeremy Irons) it goes until 1504 an (at the end they changed it a bit)
1 AM, Well time for sleep.
*New Extra History video*
eh, 10 more minutes won't kill me XD
For some reason this video comes into my recommendations every once in a while and every time, the words have me in tears in the first minute.
Hi, i am a French guy who discover you just a few moments ago but i want to tell you thank you.
Thank you because I just discover from a new point of view the Mankind History(not only with officials books and documentary) and it's something which is very valuable for me.
Thank you because i love History and video game; and your greats videos make me smile in this hards times.
I don't even kow if yo will read this but i just want to express myself and express to you my gratitude.
So just thank you Extra Credits!
Can you guys do a video on the Teutonic order please?
Who say's nice guy's finish last?
Just goes to show that no matter how much history's advancement may have come from war torn times, the greatest moment's in history can come from time's of Peace. And Men (and women) who have the integrity to uphold it.
I like the small detail of removing his eye and the bridge on his nose on angles. It's the small details that makes this channel great!
i love this tale, its one so full of hope in the spirit of humanity and what can be done in trying to better it
Just a quick tip on italian prononciation: EVERY letter is read, so just follow the phonetic alphabet (think of how Dolan comics are written) and you're good!
There is also the accent, but of course that is pretty difficult (my spoken English sucks :D)
Do this for Spanish as well.
And Latin
tell that to the double Ls
What about H?
Can you guys make an Extra History episode about what happens in South East Asia? Like maybe the Conquest of Majapahit Empire in the 13th century, or maybe something like the untold stories of the Vietnam War for independence against France? That would be great. Great series as always.
Still one of my favorite videos. Wish more like it are made
Because of the fiction I've read that's set in Renaissance Italy, I didn't care much for Sforzas, so learning about Battista's role in helping Federico rule Urbino was a pleasant surprise. (The Heirs of Alexandria series, if you're interested. Renaissance politics meets magic.)
The Renaissance is the only time went "Summer Vacation" meant spending more time at the library to kids.
a 6/6/6 leader. Thats the stuff
Nah. 10/10/10 all across the board.
This is the best one in a while, I'm glad they went back to a more informative approach than a dramatic one (I'm looking at you Suleiman The Magnificent)
Amaaaazing video. Thank you all so much for making these. Just fantastic.
What about EH of the 3 mayor civilizations in mesoamerica? Aztecs, Mayans and Incans?
I second this, but the Incas weren't part of Mesoamerica; they were South Americans and were so distantly separated from the Aztecs and Maya that they weren't even aware of their existence.
+RandomNameFinder There should be enough for the Aztecs, at least. The Mayans and Incas have a decent amount of information, but I don't know if there's enough for EH to cover.
Brandon Ottinger That wouldbe Fray Bartolome de las Casas.
***** There is a lot to grasp for the Aztecs and Incans and just recently the Mayans since it have been decoded.
There's even a ScienceNova episode here in youtube that covers how it was decoded.
+
We seem to gone everywhere but Australia mate, I've been waiting!
***** Australia is a continent.
***** You don't understand what I am saying Dan, they have been to every continent except Australia. Unless you want to count Antarctica.
***** The Gallipoli Campaign would make an interesting story of the Australians and New Zealanders, but if you want some homeland stories the discovery and settling of Australia would make a fine story as well.
The Great Emu war. Most important part of Australian history.
***** Why not? All are good reasons for EH to do Australia.
These are all amazing and you can see the time and effort put into them thank you so much for these informative videos
You know, for me, there are really only two kinds of EH episodes--those that end in building, and those that end in breaking. This one is a building one. Thank you.
so good. history channel should hire you guys
These guys are good with history, not pawn shops and conspiracies
do some episodes on Irish history
Vote on patreon.
Preferably pre-English Irish history. It is a story that is seldom told.
Activeassholeonroids no not preferably pre Anglo-Ireland only Vikings happened pre Anglo-Ireland
Yes!!!
Oh, believe me! There was a lot happening in pre-Anglo Ireland. In fact, pre-Anglo Ireland influenced pre-Norman English and Scottish culture, particularly the growth of the church.
i love these little one-episode snippets between seasons you're doing! keep it up!
I like short little one offs like these. Its just enough history and information to make you want to get out there and learn more.
I know Urbino as a one province minor vassal of The Papal State in Europa Universalis 4 in 1444. What's their relation to the pope that made the developers place Urbino in that position? They weren't originally a vassal, but that was changed in later patches.
I guess it was just to make sure the Papal States (who did have some influence on the region's politics) would take over the area as they historically did.
Before that i always saw Urbino falling to other nations, especially Venice and Naples...even England a coulle times
They could've gave the Pope a core or claim on the area
Uniting Italy as Florence, the papal state and their vassal was such a pain in the ass
some dude: Hey you forgot to pay me last week.
Fedrico: So sue me
some dude: oh no it's no-
Fedrico: DO IT!
Amazing. Hearing you speak of him, I almost wish I could've spent time in his court myself.
Another fantastic episode . And what a beautiful story. Thank you for sharing it.
Gonna go play Urbino in EU4 now.
Sweet! Sforza did good! (I've been playing AOE the Forgotten)
I love the picture with the lemonade stand. Your channel is fantastic, I learned so much and had a lot of fun watching the videos. Thank you very much guys!
I like this new one episode short format in the extra history catalogue. I know it's probably a tricky format to use condensing all that info down into a single video but I hope you do more!
huh... a ruler that was a pretty good man to everyone in his city.. wish we could find more leaders like that nowadays.....
Ah, charging protection money. The first mob boss.
Tbch cities started paying him to refuse contracts. He just allowed it xD
So stupid. So wrong.
Thank you for the great episode!
That was beautifully done. Thank you for making it.
