Petition to watch the emu war oversimplified
Yeah
@@bigmoniesponge the war crimes the emu’s they made 😔
Yes
yes
YEEEEEEES!!!
Oversimplified has a whole "miniwars"-Series ,worth watching.
Emu wars is one definitely one of my favorites!
Yes! All miniwars videos are great! He should watch them all.
EMU’S!!!!
@@magnifeck4669 "Those damned Emus they're bullies! they're nothing but bullies"!
@@Awells89 ''Hey Farmer Bruce, where did you find that hat? The toilet?''
Now you have to watch oversimplified War of the Bucket.
Yes
I agree with General Belisarius.
Done 👍
I love this guy!
All I see is the truth
no
WE ALL LOVE HIM
The YT algorithm somehow brought this channel to me, so I'm only commenting in hopes of increasing the chances that it happens to someone else too. Thank you for your content.
This man knows how to pay it forward!
Quite a
I guess your efforts brought this channel to me 1 year later, thanks i guess
I've been watching Chris' stuff all day today and I'm learning so much more than ever. Thank you for the awesome content and adding to all the bits missed by my school books
I am 20 years old. I'm trying to get my minor in history. My goal is to get a PhD in military history. Which isn't a common field in Canada. But this channel always makes me laugh when I study. And VTS always adds things that aren't said in the videos he reacts to. Honestly one of my favorite history channels on youtube.
Good luck on the PhD.
This might possibly be a future for me too.
Go Buckeyes! I’m from Dayton and I love listening to you talk.
I'm a huge fan of you man... you're an extremely interesting man, unbiased and give great unknown points about history.
I totally agree. He has the best reaction to history channels
William is my 17th great grandfather on my dad’s maternal side. After learning that it sparked my interest in English/British history. Keep up the great work man! You definitely have one of my most favorite history channels on TH-cam!
Wow
I recommend to watch the War of the Bucket from Oversimplified. A smaller conflict with a very funny story.
One of the reasons Harrold was crowned so quickly was because the Witten had been assembled for a religious holiday. And then Edward's health rapidly failed. So the Witten decided to stick around. A Saxon king could only be crowned during the closest religious holiday. Which is also why Harrold's successor was not officially crowned king before Willian took London. The coronation was to take place during Christmas.
I watched him, he was a genius, I watch him even now, he's still a genius.
He should watch the war of the bucket next.
As someone who sits around and tries to explain 2021 life to an imaginary Ben Franklin, this content is a blast.
*w u t t h e* *h e c k*
I'm sorry, what?
Oh, I know the hassle. I got Kant over here and it I would be lost if I didnt have these videos.
Um, okay.
@@IowanMatthew683 It is okay. I've been known to have similar imaginary conversations with historical figures.
I live in Iran. Though TH-cam is somehow filter in Iran and English speaking channels aren't so popular in Iran, I'm really you and your channel fan and I enjoy all of your videos, especially oversimplified ones. Keep up the good work, man.
Glad to have you here!
Yep. Tosig Godwinson (Haralds brother) allied with Harrald Hadrada for his invasion of Stamford Bridge.
Tostig was the Earl of Northumbria, but he neglected his earldom and his subjects were ticked off at his rule and so revolted. King Edward wanted his friend back in power and was willing to go to war, but wiser heads prevailed and civil war was averted.
Two videos by Invicta I’d recommend would be “The evolution of the US Navy” and/or “The Battle of Midway” videos both are great and go into good detail.
Harald Hadrada was also the captain of the elite Byzantine bodyguards called the Varangian Guard, which were made up of mostly vikings.
I know that only from Crusader Kings III; all my guys kept trying to leave for the Byzantine guards.
Please do Oversimplified The Falklands please! The smaller wars need love too.
I found your channel recently and I just want to say thank you! I hated history in high school but as I've gotten older I've wanted to know more and more about it. I've binged half your videos over the past week and its been so fun and I've learned so much! Thank you so much for the learning and laughs!
It's always fun if your the one who reacts! Like you add some more stuff for my knowledge. Thank you for providing content for us my g. Hopefully you get to 1 million!
Great video.
I became addicted to your channel, keep doing these!
Love your channel and HGG. Ive been binge watching your Oversimplified content here and your HOI4 content on HGG. Keep it up!
Thank you so much for these videos, you've made me interested in history again
If there’s any oversimplified that you have not watched you should watch them
I was watching his Battle of Hastings video and I JUST see this pop on my feed. Thank you algorithms
I have been watching for a week now and you are on my top 10 favorite youtubers
You make amazing videos!
When Harold Godwinson and Harald Hardrada first confronted each other, Hadrada said; ''Give me half of this land, and we will rule it together.'' Harold Godwinson replied; ''No, I will give you six-fourths of this land.'' In other words, he would kill Hardrada, as giving someone six-fourths of a land was burying him six feet underground.
Oversimplified always puts out great stuff that's worth watching. Thanks for posting!
I was able to see the Tapestry of Bayeux this past summer. It was incredible to hear the story as you followed along it. Don’t forget to visit the cathedral that they used to show it in. Really cool town.
Had history lessons at school been like this, I wouldn’t have dropped it so quickly. You talking over this video legit makes it so much more interesting
Excellent video as always.
The bird sang “were no strangers to love” because in the 3 kingdoms video ,there was a bird singing never gonna to “give you up, never gonna let you down” in Chinese
Fantastic!!! :) Thank you for sharing & giving us your time!! :) :) :)
If you want a really good story about this war, then I would recommend G.A. Henty's book, "Wulf the Saxon." It is a great book, and the History is remarkably accurate, (as are all of Henty's books), considering that it was written in the late 1800's.

Thanks, love your work.
Love it when this guys posts something
I could stay in a room for all my life, just talking about history with this awesome man! 😀
My favorite newly discovered TH-cam content!
The algorithm brought me to you and I keep watching 😁
Yay I was hoping for this
My favorite part about the battle of Hastings is that the battle actually took place in a town called Battle in Sussex but Battle of Battle probably doesn’t sound as cool.
That's why Battle is called Battle. It got the name from the battle, so it couldn't really have been called the Battle of Battle. Now if another one took place there, that would be an epic name.
First thing he noticed is the rick roll. Love it dude! You prove theres no need for such an advanced setup when you have advanced knowledge. Keep it up!
Yea oversimplified has an entire series of miniwars. The emu wars was a good one but the three kingdoms and the faulk islands are also good. Check them out and review them
Great Video!
I love your reactions you always add so much info into them. A video I'd love to see you react to is the battle of may island by down the rabbit hole aka fredrick knudsen. It's an incredible video and I think even if you dont know a ton about the event you could add alot of supporting details.
Bayeaux tapestry is really amazing. Plus you can tie it in to all the D-Day beaches which is a fantastic trip.
Yes, the advantage Oversimplified videos have over the others is they always give you the context, Wich is very important, you actually start to see the butterfly effect on history,one event leading to the other to the other to the other
11:55pm on a thursday, i see an Oversimplified react by vth
Guess i don't need sleep (it's to warm anyway)
Where do u live?
@@yellowhd2414 Germany
Piece of this I loved that a history (ex archaeologist) teach told me is that when William landed in England he tripped which was seen as an omen by the soldiers that he would fall but William instead stood up with 2 hands of sand and said "God has given me the land already"
Please react to how each of the presidents died by fire by learning, really interesting topic I’d love for you to dive into
Oh, I'll also add that I've been to Bayeux and seen the tapestry, and you're right to want to go. In addition to the tapestry itself being cool, the museum and its instructive elements are really well done.
2:27 In 911 surely, but in 1066, it was already more difficult to differentiate the Normans from the Franks, since they were already more or less assimilated with them.
Whether in terms of language, mixed marriages (therefore a mixture of DNA), Trade, dress style and facial look, the Art of War (EX: Chivalry, where the Vikings fought on foot ), and most importantly Religion, etc ...
Oversimplified is how history should be taught in school. And by the way, good on you for picking up on the rickroll. I missed that when I saw this video before. :)
I loved the mention of The Last Kingdom! One of my favorite shows I’ve watched on Netflix
Good videos as usual. I love Vikings the Viking ages. Very dope time in history to learn about, because we don’t know much about them because of multiple reason. Same as the Bronze Age.
Amazing insights 👍
And even though the Normans brought their French words for everything over from the mainland, the Anglo-Saxon word Earl was retained. Why? Well, the French equivalent of Count wasn't pronounced very nicely locally. Yeah. But the Earl's wife got to be called a Countess, so that's ok.
While I don't know 100% for-sure, I think the *other* reason is that the status of Earl was not entirely known at the time, in terms of 'exchange value.' An English Earl ranked only below the English King in status (& was equal to other Earls). Given that *Dukes* ranked in status just below a King on the continent, *one could argue* that the title of Earl was actually more comparable to a Duke than a Count.
(side note: I'm not sure I *entirely* agree w/ this, as 11th Century continental Dukes were basically sovereign entities but w/out the 'sacred' role of Kingship, such as anointment w/ oils. English Earls were hardly *sovereign* but they *were* very powerful).
The argument is supported (rather shakily) by the fact that in other North Sea Scandinavian Kingdoms (such as Sweden & Norway) the title of 'Jarl' (roughly equivalent to an Earl, at least etymologically) is translated as 'Duke' at some point; both Birger Jarl of Sweden & Skule Bardsson of Norway were Jarls who promoted themselves as Dukes, skipping the comital ranking altogether.
With Earls in a possibly *ambiguous* status position, the idea is that King William, cognizant of power held by a Duke (being one himself) decided that Earls were equivalent to Counts only, not Dukes. As such, he & his family would remain the only Dukes in England.
Again, I'm not sure I buy this justification, but I've heard it given in conjunction w/ your explanation & I'd thought I'd mention it.
I love this video. I once had to give a presentation about the battle of Hastings for my english class (English isn’t my first language so the bar wasn’t set that high) and this video was 90% of my research
Do oversimplified three kingdoms!
I'd love to see thoughts about East Asian history from someone who's main field is European history.
I think Japan in the lat 16th century has a lot of parallels with the German Empire, even though they are completely disconnected.
Yes please!
Love this content
I’m also from Youngstown Ohio!! Just watched the video where you said you were from there
Great reaction
Funny, I just watched this earlier this morning it's uploaded. It was a good video for sure.
Great one)
Hell yea been looking forward to this one. I would also love to see you react to German solider remembers ww2 by memoirs of ww2
The battle abby roll lists two members of my family that fought in this battle.
Hey I've been watching a lot of your videos over the last month or so and I love the format. I've been really curious about history as a field, could you make at least one video about what historians have to do other than know details about history, theories of history and where you land on those kinds of questions?
Hey, I'd been recommending this one to you for a while -- so glad you did this. If you haven't seen the other Oversimplified mini-wars videos, I'd give the Emu War video a look. Lots and lots of fun. The Football War and the Falklands videos are more serious.
Godwinson could have easily won the battle if he just used skill share
Well there is 150 years between Rollo and William. The Norses that settled mixed with the (more numerous) locals so much that William himself didn't actually have much Norse blood, mostly Frankish. And regarding culture... well, the Normans assimilated so much that they didn't have a lot in common with the Norsemen anymore at this point.
Rollo was a viking (viking is a job), but the later dukes of Normandy can more be seen as a mix Norse-French, gradually more french than norse with each generation.
Perfect segway. As you were talking about the tapestry and said it showed the king pointing at Godwinson, a commercial came on for the new musical, and it said "hold on, wait a minute." Then came back on.
Will you do other mini war videos too
I really hope you check out their video about the War of the Bucket!
Awesome video
We need a reaction to Oversimplified's "Three Kingdoms" video! Haven't seen too much in terms of Asian history on this channel
War of the Bucket next!
Please react to "How Medieval Kings Would See Today" by Fire of Learning.
Your channel is national treasure
You did it. Thank you. You da best
Hello from Ireland 🇮🇪 Love your videos hope you will do a video on the great irish famine
The story of Harald Haradra is absolutely amazing. I remember there being a great video about him around, but don't recall who did it.
excellent! This actually fills in some holes
I've been reading a bunch on the Football War (100 Hours War) after watching the other Oversimplified Mini War, really interesting stuff
Amazing a Oversimplified battle of Hastings reaction, learned a lot.
Glorious!
I love OG Oregon Trail. That and Where In the World is Carmen Sandiego.
Great vid! Can you react to Oversimplified's Emu War next?
Is there any way you can do a video about how accurate the Vikings series may or may not be? I loved watching it and I know it wasn't too historically accurate, but I'd like to get a historian's feedback.
great video
"Normandy was a viking duchy". Norman-dy.... I feel dumb now
I feel so too :D
I have always heard that "Normandie" meant "North Man's Land." I don't know if that is the actual meaning of it but that's what I have heard.
@@stonewall01 Norman is a contraction of 'Norse man' IIRC.
@@jeandehuit5385 Indeed, it all just means Northman.
@@jeandehuit5385 I know that part, I didn't know if the "....die" in Normandie meant "land".
Because there is also Picardie and Bretagne (Brittany). Does the suffix "ie/e" at the end mean land?
We’ve done some ancestral researcher and found they’ve my direct ancestors are believed to have been friends of, accompanied and fought with William at the Battle of Hastings.
I love this reaction videos! But on a Oversimplified video I'm always waiting for the line of "Dude! Uncool!"
yes!!! can you do the rest? Like the Emu Wars, Football Wars, And the Three Kingdoms! pls! It's good and comedic!
very epic and also cool
Jay Foreman’s video “Why are British place names so hard to pronounce?” Is a super interesting etymology/history video you should react to if you haven’t already!
Surprisingly I found out that I was related to William the Conquer. It's not too impressive considering he had 5 million decendents but it is still something. It took forever because is son Henry had like 20 children... it was exhausting figuring this out.
Ganghis khan: *Finally a worthy opponent, our battle will be legendary!*
Video suggests: React to the emu war by oversimplified.
