I agree. England has such an amazing history.....heck all of the British Isles does,in my opinion. Being a American I'm always amazed at the large number of great generals and warriors that came from that part of the world.
The English civil war was important for progress in democracy, a bill of rights, etc. (listen to the 'Putney debates' from this era, some great discussion about liberty, etc), which of course you (or the 13 colonies) ultimately inherited and influenced the likes of Jefferson, etc.
@gooner_duke2756 mhm sure it was😉🤣 Nah but honestly yeah I can see that. Though I do wonder sometimes that if the Crown would've just been more understanding of the situation of the colonies....how would my country look today🤔 How much different would've world history been? Kinda crazy honestly
If the UK had managed to win the Rev war against the colonies, they would have been in both world wars much earlier. The U.S would have been given its independence by 1950 similar to Canada and Australia.
Cromwell was truly one of the great men of History. He went downhill near the end...but we're still talking about him and Britain would not have a Parliament without him.
Are there any buildings still standing, aside from castles, that were used during the civil war ? The one I know of is a house on Church Street Warrington. The statue of Oliver Cromwell that stands outside the Houses Of Parliament used to stand outside Warrington Academy near the Mersey River in Warrington.
"The real story " , Cromwell, the civil war and his time in Ireland is very divisive, there is no real story , it depends on who you ask. Cromwell was a hypocrite, , the war was about the common man being fairly represented by a parliament. Cromwell sacked parliament and made himself king ( lord protector) with sole rule even naming his son as his heir. .....
I appreciate your dialogue. thank you. I would love to see you dialog live with someone equally reflective on the other side of this so that the truth could be understood in USA so we could better understand how to be part of solutions and not further worsen the strong divisions that seem to be represented by propagandists.
I'm a Newarker Newark held 🛡🏰🛡 The key town to the North 💪 Ps.. In 1995 I found the Civil war horse Stables in The cellar in the Building on Appleton gate Now called the Stables 😊
I am trying to learn how the war started who started it and why and what was the reason for the start of it etc etc. This documentary doesn’t help. Or have I missed part one somewhere?
If Cromwell were a Cincinatus or a Washington, Britains Republic would have survived and become the Great Republic itself. Instead he was more a sanguine cincinnatus...awed by his own power and too sure of himself.
in the historic content of English politics there was never a a will of the people , but the will of a elite parliament fighting among themselves , using religion as a division . of the fact when the levellers ideals became popular among round heads army members: it was promptly and murderously squashed
...also, Cromwell wasn't JUST a Regicide. Oh, no! He was an Innovator. Yes, by the use of a device, he made all of his Soldier's heads perfectly round, in order that they should present a uniform appearance when drawn up in line. Besides this, if any man lost his head in action, it could be used as a cannon-ball by the artillery (which was done at the Seige is Worcester.
Both the terms of 'roundhead' and 'cavalier' were insults during the 17th century. Should they be used the user was liable to have their ears cropped. The term 'roundhead' came from the fact that at the battle of Turnham Green (1642), the King's Army was turned back from London by the Trained Bands, most of whome were apprentices who had shaved heads. The term implies 'juvenile delinquent'. The term 'cavalier' is short for 'cavaliero' meaning 'drunken, hapless roustabout'.
@@kevwhufc8640 Not true. The change in tactics and uniform came from Colonel Cromwell's cavalry from East Anglia and meant far better discipline and no wild, (cavaliero) one-off charges, as per Prince Rupert. Cromwell also stopped troops living off the land and peasants being press-ganged into the army, preferring 'God-fearing men'.
There's no need to romanticise and agonise over the execution of Charles any more than we would over the death of any other common thug or highwayman of the time.
The King's letter to Prince Rupert prior to the relief of York and the battle of Marston Moor is one of the most ridiculous pieces of command ever given by a senior officer to a field commander. Laughable. And could someone sort the running order out?
You're watching a documentary about a war that started in 1642. I don't think 22 years is going to make a difference for a well researched and produced documentary.
@@ImmaOnDaInternetz 22 years is a long time in historical research. so much can change in that time - new techniques for scientifically analysing artefacts, new documents and other primary sources discovered, new archeological sites excavated, new questions asked and new perspectives discussed by historians. I certainly wouldn't use a source that old in a research essay unless I found newer sources referring to it as still being accurate and useful. additionally there was probably information circulating through the historian community in 2001 that weren't well known enough to make it into this documentary - it usually takes a while for new research to make it out of academia and into popular history stuff like tv shows, even ones that interview historians.
@@isthatrubble Whilst I agree with what you have said in part, you are focusing too much on a factor that ultimately is out of your control. If you look at a series such as The World at War (1973) whilst it is outdated in a lot of ways, it is still an incredibly engaging and well produced series, it's age means maybe some of the information is less accurate or in depth than we have today, but to act like it shouldn't be viewed ever again is shortsighted. There aren't that many documentary series about the English Civil war that I have seen or heard of, so it is better to have something that is outdated (a lot of the information presented is general in nature, it isn't discussing many aspects of archaeology or research). Whilst ideally you always use sources that are contemporary, ultimately that is not always going to be possible. If we took your attitude regarding history to it's conclusion, you would need to scrap any TV series older than 5 years ago (from the current date).
@@ImmaOnDaInternetz I don't think they should be scrapped, I just expected more up to date stuff from a company that prides itself on how historian-centric it is
Just so the uniformed may know, the American Civil War is called by people who have studied it in greater depth than most, The Last Scottish-English Civil War.
I can see 1776 being a British Civil War...Great Britain vs. British America... But no way 1861-65, that was American America sorting out it's issues, they'd already decided they didn't want to be British generations ago

Please learn to say Drog-her-der properly before the inability to do basic research completely discreadits anything that's put forward. The treatment of the garason there is highlighted measly as it foretells the "so called" mass ethnic cleansing of the west. Which you don't conver. A large proportion of the Irish population was killed. To a degree that Irish culture struggled to sustain its self there after. In Ireland Cromwell is the no 1 figure of fear and sadness, and as a result hatred. The silly one sided commentary here is why the Irish view the English education system as ill preparing the them for a sensible relationship in the future. Any oportunity for Ireland to become part of the British Isles ended with Cromwell.
You just figure this out. Alot good bands play there. Peaceful loving music like 311. Stuff came out before the Bible was ever around. But alot of ppl do come up with things to scare ppl n bad spirits away. Just listen to the new age music like fire from the gods. Signing bout positivity n world peace. Love, care, harmony, hippies, ppl smoking a herb grow from the earth n lay back enjoying music n peace from government control, see nothin wrong with that. Look into the freemasonry n the ones who run hawkins country, they the ones who want to control n ppl to live in fear.
I'm guessing it's a compilation of several videos. But yeah 3+ hours of content is a bit too much content. They could have split it up into several segments.
This civil war caused the first split between the North and South in the colonies, with the South siding with the King and the North siding with their Puritan brethren. Thus sowing the seeds for the conflict of 1861-1865.
Do you people honestly think you're clever, intelligent and have great humour that the whole world will subscribe to, by mentioning tea with anything to do with the Brits, cuz i got to tell you i cringe when read it not for my sake or the Brits but yours, its very lame and rather boring, its like limeys, and if people knew the real reason there'd feel pretty stupid, its like laughing about and ridiculing Hobarts funnies in WW2??, due to having the same conitation..... To the people who do know the reasons of these names laugh back and label the word Hypocrite whilst they do..due to those that did mock used and adopted themselves these things and ideas, solutions not long after, hence Ironical idiocy or Hypocrisy.... Take your pick...
English civil war? I'd say its time historically to name it the british isles civil war as the Scots, Irish, Welsh & English protestants & catholics alike were all heavily involved, its a complete misnomer and very misleading to anyone not in possession of the facts about all the combatants
The English Civil Wars were part of a series of conflicts now known under the umbrella-term, the Wars of the Three Kingdoms; the two Bishops' Wars (Scotland) - the Irish Rebellion/ the Irish Confederate wars/ the Cromwellian Conquest of Ireland - & the three English Civil Wars...
@@OcarinaSapphr- that sounds a lot more like it mate, to call it the english civil war is very misleading as there were combatants from all the 4 countrys involved and the King involved was from the Stewart line
No not really in scotland it was called the Rebellion it was a Scottish civil war in essence, but the scots dont like it to be known that Scotsmen was killing Scotsmen, brothers killing brothers even fathers fighting sons, and Wales at the time was classed and mapped as the Kingdom of England, and all factions wherever Irish or Welsh, scots fought in the lands of England against the English parliament and English monarchy, so the context of it being the English civil war than the British Isles civil war is very much a correct way of calling it...
@@wor53lg50 the Scots don't like it known we fought each other? First of me hearing that , we've fought each other since time began, the lowlands were a completely different culture to the Highlands and its common knowledge that they hated each other for centuries, every English/British army that fought the Highland clans contained hundreds if not thousands of lowland Scots in their ranks and there were Scots fighting Scots since the reformation over religions, I've not known Scots who don't like it known as it's our history, it just is
