It sucks how almost whole German history is neglected because of 12 years of Nazi rule. Great video btw
It's more focused on because it still affects the world, Barbarosa doesn't.
Weimar Republic ruined it first
@@jaybanalnal7252 let's be honest, WW1 was something that should've been avoided.
@@comraderoyalguard4699 it really shouldn't have
only 12years . hey im not saying this in or to disrespect you but you need to have a really good look around specifically world leaders
At 59 yrs old, I just found out I was adopted. Raised Puerto Rican, being Puerto Rican is all I've ever known. Yesterday I received the results of my DNA tests and turns out I'm 100% German. Outside of WWII I know nothing about Germany. Now my journey starts to recover my ancestry and learn about my people. Thank you so very much for this. ❤️
That’s incredible and I’m happy you’ve come to know your true origins. Forgive me if I offend you with this question, which I truly am not trying to do, but do you think its possible your parents were higher up’s in the Nazi regime, and moved to Latin America to avoid prosecution? If so, it would be pretty cool to find out who they were as they still might be missing on official records. Anyways, its really cool that you get to piece history together!
You could be NAZI German and your ancestors escaped Germany via the Rat lines as Yazn suggested . I half Scottish and on that side my mother is Nordic and Celtic ie Aryan - blonde hair and blue eyes. I'm Sicilian on my father's side.
@@charlesmartella there is no ethnic that is nazi germam
@@swagkachu3784 yes I understand that . What I actually meant was maybe one of his ancestors was a NAZI who escaped Germany at the end of WW2 ps and if there had of been they definitely would have been far,far superior. pps I am joking

I’m a Native American really interested in the German people. Thank you for this video!
Germans are actually also very interested in Native Americans. I know it's just fiction, but Karl Mays novels about the Native American Winnetou are the most read German speaking books as far as I know
Hey me too... Anishnabe... Im Ojibway, what about you??? 🙂
We’re all people.
Hello cousin. I am -3% Cherokee. Sup? My maternal 6th great grandmother is Wurteh Benge. I am mostly German. I'm interested in my long lost Native families
I am a quarter Cherokee Indian. I love history. I love the history of royalty. I'm grateful for this upload. STAY WARM. Love and light from Gore, Oklahoma.🍭
Nice to see a doco on our history that doesn't focus entirely on *those* 12 years.
It just sucks that your grandparents were the worst.
marsnz Korrekt.Got to admit though those were the most interesting 12 yrs any nation has ever had. 73 yrs since NSDAP went kaput and it fascinates everyone. Nazis get views and ratings.
marsnz those 1000 years do u mean?
it explains a lot too, no wonder that 12 years guy thought he was the chosen one, announcing you were the emperor apparently a common theme in European culture of the period. Seems a common theme in Europe, war, war, and more war. this was a great video They want the EU army in this modern day. Happy to be American, we want all wars to stay overseas, easy when your surrounded by a vast sea. I have no doubt why my ancestors left Europe, we were tired of being ruled over, and still are fighting Europe, with words not swords
@@buddymoore6504+ Yeah, the United States didn't want to be ruled, it wanted to rule. Manifest Destiny may be a good example. And it's a very stupid thing. We shouldn't rule the world. We attack sovereign nations without a moral, ethical, or just reasons. We undermine other nations' political processes, and try to force others to comply to our wills through threats of economic, military or covert actions. You know, the United States would be a great nation (for the first time) if we actually tried to make the world a better place. If we acted more like a leader than a tyrannical despotic nation, imagine what progress we would make in this world. But we got to fix the issues here first before we can actually do any good. Unfortunately, we have yet to have a government that actually doesn't have the people's interests at heart. Not now, not at the founding of the United States, and I don't think anytime in near future.
I think i learned more about Germany, and history, than i did the the entire time I was in school. subbed and liked
Grateful aya. That which is printed in history books is controlled by the world ruling elite. He who controls the money, including hard earned tax dollars, also control what is poured into your mind. The whole world is deceived. Governments, whether communist or fascist have been kept kept in check by the Vatican. The Vatican is nothing but a tool used by the world ruling elite to maintain control over the masses. Those world ruling elite who control the world banks, also control governments. This is why the congress of the U. S. has been deneutered and has become a congress of do nothingers. They have been bought off by the world elite and delagated their power to the unelected authoritarian bureaucracy spearheaded by the CIA and answerable to no one. The world ruling elite has taken over the government of the U. S. in order to reestablish the European revival of the Holy Roman Empire. The spirit of Charlemagne will rise again. The spirit of Charlemagne was controlled by Satan. There was nothing holy about the Holy Roman Empire. History is controlled by those with the power and money. The truth about the Holy Roman Empire from Justinian's kingdom beginning the church--state relationship to Charlemagne, to Otto the Great, to Charles V, Habsburg Dynasty, to Napoleon, and on to the sixth kingdom which was Hitler; all these kingdoms had one thing in common. They all had a great false church riding on their backs. That great false church used the power of those individual governments to supress the truth. This always led to rivers of blood. That spirit of the revival of the Holy Roman Empire, a European ten nation combine led by Germany with the Vatican riding on its back will soon rear its ugly head. Rivers of blood will flow once again. After blood flows like rivers and billions are dead worldwide, never again will man rule over man. Mankind was given free moral agency and chose to partake of the tree of good and evil. Man chose Satan's nature rather than God's nature. Mankind chose his own governments, his own RELIGIONS, his own science, his own economy and his own educational system. All of mankind's institutions are inside out. Mankind has created a bowl full of sewage by rejecting God's nature. Because mankind was created as free moral agents and chose on his own to follow his own human nature, better known as satanic nature, man will learn the hard way. By aversion therapy and the rivers of blood man creates by his weapons of mass destruction, mankind will be purged of his pompous, arrogant, puffed up with pride attitude and will be humbled. For the first time, mankind will be free of the influence and control of Satan and his demons to be reeducated in God's way of life; to live in God's spiritual ten commandments as a way of life. As for the world ruling elite who play the nations against each other as though they were chess pieces, they will learn what God meant when he said, "it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to. make it in God's kingdom."

Do you think you do not have the responsibility to learn most academic knowledge outside of school?
Now learn everything about the states.
I am in a relationship with a German and i want to learn and understand the history of Germany beyond the 12 years that are highlighted in school. I appreciate this video and the hard work that was put into making it.
Are you Jewish?
🤦♂️
That is why nationally they focus on the 12 years, because there is no history of a singular peoples in Germany. It was a disjointted mess, until 1870. Different states identifiied with completely foreign states as much as they did with other Geerman states before this. You would be better off learning about particular state that your Partner arose in
@@Rowlph8888 all histories are disjointed messes. We choose to organize from here on out and cut down the subverting tree of Abraham
@@NwoDispatcher Not true. Both England and France have national identities going back a millennium, portugal 800 years and Spain 500 years, just as some examples.The People's in the regions within these countries have a collective and identification with each other, for the different centuries leading down. Not just word-of-mouth, but a written history, for example, those in the North of England, identifying with that history, aspects of it, just like those in the south.This did not happen in germany until a couple of generations after 1870.Up until that point, each region, the people's would be taught the history of their region and would identify with those within it, but not with those in other regions that are now part of the modern collective german identity

The Germans(German speaking people) are arguably the cultural heavyweights of Europe. Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, Kant, Mozart, Beethoven, Wagner, Bach, Hesse, Goethe, Dürer etc... To see no further back than the great world wars is to disregard some of the most outstanding intellectual and artistic achievements of any country in any age.
BARBATUS 89 we will see
lets not forget the real heavy weights,: the many in the field of natural science like mathematics, physics, chemistry, economy, historiy, archaelogy, geography, urban planners/architects, blacksmiths/engineers and constructors ... most real innovations and changes are from them. and I dont just talk about Gutenberg, Gauss, Euler, Rothshield, Fugger, Goldmann/Sachs, Gutenberg, Einstein, Planck, Leibnitz, , Goedel, Escher, Bach, Siemens, Daimler, Porsche, Horch (Audi), Braun, Bosch, Hahn, Bunsen, Koch, Paracelsius, Altzheimer, Freud, Jung, Schliemann, Humboldt and so on ... for instance Knight armor (best were South Germany and North Italy) and Swords, complex mechanical constructions already in medival age (many famous blacksmiths!) ... and the ones who crated the infrastructure/universities/spots for that ... today often more 'entertainers' or philosophers' are named (and also shown in the TV, even in their 'modern versions'), but the real impact had mostly other ones ... of course some were generalists like Dürer (a real heavy weight) ... and keep in mind how many battles who changed the history were the result of 'better weapons', better ships, better food ... constructed/innovated/brought by whom? it was already an interesting documentary if one just focus on the genious blacksmith and little developers of the old times in Europe. many less known yet famous people at their time - with a lot of impact. hidden champions!
@@publicminx An Austrian belittled my people, the Spanish, telling me we merely piggy-backed on Portuguese expertise. I never belittled his race, yet he belittled mine, so I mocked him using his own standard, telling him that if what he said of my people were true, then the Germans accomplished nothing without piggy-backing on the British Industrial Revolution. He admitted it was so since he didn't want me to disassociate with him as an enemy.
I would see it relaxed and a bit out of the box. The cultural hot spots changed over time in history. If you look over a few thousand years then from Persia, Greek, Roman to the successor of the Roman to the more middle and northern Europe countries and their colonies - which are are at the moment the most wealthy and innovative cultures (UK, Canada, Western- and Northern Europe) ... slowly Southeast Asia adds more and more (Japan, South Korea, Singapore, China is on the same path) and might even overtake on some aspects... But my posting was about something different: due to the left wing/socialist ideology we often talk to much about cultural lightweight cultures (like entertainment, actors, social/moral-'philosophers') but less about the real cultural heavy weights ... we also have to much left wing milieu actors, singers and so on in the TV talking about the reality and society instead of real scientists. I don't like this shift from natural science to ideology/religion ...
Did it do any good when they followed Hitler?
I love this country so much. It has such rich history and their language is absolutely my favorite. I wish more people knew it’s history.
German language sounds auzgezeichnet
If you want to say about real history of one single unified country called "Germany" - not many tribes, not federation, not just people with similar language it started from Prussia
@@wyt9603 Prussia was the main, unifying force of Germany and a had a major cultural impact. However, the idea of Germany came about before Prussia began really pushing for it. Germany is a nation that is a series of old, smaller kingdoms and princedoms, who’s people desired to become a force on the international stage & not just a theatre of European politics.
Danke
@@wyt9603germany the state began with prussia. Germany the Nation existed since the time of the romans This is a history of the german nation. Not the state

I am 1/2 English, 1/4 Irish and 1/4 German so after listening to this history, I have all Anglo Saxon roots and mostly Germanic and Teutonic culturally. What a surprise! That will save me $100 on Ancestry.
Hello .Stay blessed
Except for the Irish yes. The Irish are Celts
Since your part English and Irish, you might also be part Norwegian and Danish, but depends on which part of Euope

Excellent work. No dead-weight here, just a well-paced stream of info at the right level of detail (for me) and with useful graphics. Watched from start to finish.
it is also very inaccurate and factually wrong at times, but hey, what can you expect from a youtube video
@@morecoffee998 What is one inaccuracy?
Like More coffee said: It is inaccurate and factually wrong at times. And then there are omissions. Why did the Romans call them Germans? Because they came from Germania??? Lol! It is more likely that they called them germanii meaning something like 'warring people' in latin and thus called the area the same people lived Germania. The origin story that is stated as fact should also be taken lightly. Though migration is mentioned it does seem to be misaligned. It is more likely that there is a link to the people we know as ancient Assyrians (who are described by contemporaries as pale in complexion, formidable warriors, highly cultured, etc. and not Iraqi), hence the connection to the so called Aryans being a form of Assyrian (though there is some confusion thrown in as some went to India). There are many examples of the connection such as Austria is called Oestenryk (eastern kingdom).
@@Matthew-jz1bo The link between Assyria and Germany is basically completely unsubatantiated, so I didn't mention it.

Dude thank you, this is sick. Pre 20th century Germanic history has always been such an enduring enigma for me, this cleared up so much of the mystery. Great job.
The worst thing is that todays germans don't learn anything about the German tribes and the major Deutsche Tribes (Saxons, friesi, Bajuwaren, chatten/Hessen, suebi/Schwaben, Franken, Thüringer) in school and the universities are infiltrated by the so called 68 Generation who even denies the existence of the German Volk in general.
We yanks are woefully ignorant of our European ancestors' history--- we are taught about it as an overview within "world history" here, in the states! Thanks, for making this engaging material available to us online :)
ok but you are responsible for your own education. stop blaming school if you do not learn as an adult.
@@catherinewood8332 tell me exactly what you think this person is doing watching this video, if not learning more? American school education is shit and their history education is based on propaganda. This person is right to call it out for what it is.
Yeup! Another fellow American here- as I try to attempt great literary works- Russian classics etc. I just want to understand the things going on in the world when these authors were writing their masterpieces.
Yanks? Not very representative of all of those in the US.

Fire of Learning you're a tank, bro. This was great, basically nothing else like this on Germany on KZhead. If we're voting, I'd like to see a video on Scotland.
What's to know ? 44.7% of Scottish people voted for Independence from the rest of the UK. 55.3% of Scottish people told them to go and fuck themselves. The Independence lot who are still trying pretend that anyone else even cares haven't stopped whining ever since, apparently, (just like the UK vote to leave the EU,) it was all a huge mistake and the voters got it completely wrong.

I deeply respect Germany's ancient history. But looks like very few people know about them. WW2 destroyed their ancient precious history. I completely agree that most of it is overshadowed by the events of 20th century. Thanks for the information. Greetings from Pakistan!
How did World War 2 destroy their history?
@@hausvonmisfits636 It destroyed their history in a sense that whenever you ask anyone about germany or german history, The Nazis and Hitler comes to their mind. Rarely you will find anyone talk about Prussia or Fredrick the Great. This stereotype is popular in several countries. WW2 also destroyed German Nationalism as german people constantly feel guilty of something they didn't do except their ancestors. In fact, even I was one of those guys who only knew about Nazis and Hitler and the bad stuff. When I read German history, I was impressed that these guys have also played a very important role in ancient history.
@@MustafaAli-lb8dq what do you mean by Nazism, Hitler and bad stuffs?

Spot on
James Buck "statehood" of Palestine is there since before jews arrived from Egypt. Palestine was a Kingdom, it was part of Ottoman Empire and was ruled by Hashemite Royal and allowed Christian Faith to Thrive. The Protection of Christian pilgrims was protected by German Knights even in the 1904 times. German and Austrian Knights of Habsburgs and Hohenzollerns were in these places. There was peace between Austrian and Ottoman empires during these times they always go into these Churches. A british Lord of Irish blood was murdered, Lord Moyne and 93 others. Those who have claimed israel comes from kabbalist, communist, zionist in which all the founding teachers of these 3 disicplines were all jews... "son of a bitch!" right? They control the hue and tint of the environment of lies and these communist-zionist-cabbalist jews are lyin EVERYDAY! The jews lied about Germany
OMG this is the best documentary in my entire life. You capture most of early german people so very good. Keep going bro.
I regret that my history classes in the United States barely touched German history. My German ancestors came to the US between the civil war and WWI. I'm a Lutheran and my favorite composer is Beethoven. I hope to one day visit Germany. Howdy from Texas!
As a German, I know that it is much more, but here something for the eye. kzhead.info/sun/jcaNnp1_a5Segok/bejne.html
Welcome!
They shouldn't, why focus on one nation over in europe? Your own countries history comes first, and many other things history related, time management wise, i don't think German history is necessary, but would be very cool though!
@@sylamy7457 I understand. All I ever learned about Germany was Martin Luther, both world wars and the Berlin Wall.
@soflo23 beep I mean general periods of history such as the Holy Roman empire or unification. Even the influence of music and art from the baroque thru romantic. Like I said most I ever learned was Martin Luther, the two world wars, and the Berlin Wall.
You put so much work into these documentaries and it makes them really great and thorough. Thank you!! ❤️
Thankyou for a history of Germany in English. Hard to find this on youtube.
There isn't a lot of information we would like to have about Germany in general. I keep looking, though.
Jan Badinski May I suggest YT: "David Irving" an English revisionist; "Prof. Faurisson" a French revisionist; Benjamin H. Freedman's speech in 1961 at the Willard Hotel (a former high echelon Zionist, converted to Chrisianity).

KZhead is germanphobic
This must have taken ages to research and write! Thank you for this incredibly thorough and vast effort! It is by far the most comprehensive documentary of our history on KZhead, at least as far as I have seen!
Unlike revisionism that is rampant in the left leaning halls of learning today, European history has been painstakingly recorded as a record of facts for centuries.
@@ltcavret7574 Missed the mark there. Revisionism has always been the tool of extremists, left *and* right. Difference is that these days, people and politicians often don't recognize extremists on the left for what they are unless they commit arson or vandalism. So they give in, believing there to be more pressure than there actually is, in the name of political correctness.
@@ltcavret7574 Revisionism has been coming from the right but okay

@Fortnite Elite USA, very true. But we must also acknowledge that, that was another time, another people. It's best be used as a historic lesson. Bolsheviks of Russia were no less who butchered the Tsar Nicholas 2 and his entire family. Brought sufferings for Russian people for the next 70 years. These are lessons from history. Today's Germany is different from Hitler's Germany.

Thank you so much for the time and effort you put into this excellent history of Germany. I have read John Rohl's 3 part volume on Wilhelm II that amounts to about 3900 pages. I find German history absolutely fascinating on so many levels.

This was so well done. As a historian this was so well structured and time line was great. Well done. I love true history not watered down or as I have seen on the Hyksos history just made up to be a talking point. I'll call out who did this however I can't because this is far greater. 🤣
Things are either fact or fiction no in between so I just called it but thank for da heart. It's a first. 🤣
Every time I hear "Germany" refering to something prior to 1848 I get goose bumps... ...In a bad way... I watched this because I was interested in how german history would be portraied...because it is a thousand years full of complex topics and there are some misconception that seem to be common in english-speaking countries. (For example: If you see a map of national borders in medieval times.... It is wrong... yes always. And many words aren't chosen well. For example the modern concepts of "Monarch", "Nation" or "State" don't fit into medieval reality...) Some common misconcetions are repeated here (more than I care to write about...) but overall it still seems well done. There are some oversimplifications but If you don't turn a mosquito into an elephant (common german proverb) it seems to be an adequate synopsis of german history. PS: Don't get me wrong...there are more things in this video that are terribly wrong than I would like to write about... BUT... In Germany it's considered praise enough if you are not beeing scolded... ...at the same time we are told to say nothing if we can not say something nice... soooooooo........................The short mention of the concept of Translatio Imperii in 31:10 is ery nice. I'm sure this is a good overview for many people but (coming from a historitian) I can not follow your enthusiasm and I wouldn't call this "true history not watered down"...
Hey im thinking about becoming a historian whats your job like?
I’m glad somebody actually tell full good detail of Germany and not just talk about World War I and II thank for making both of these they are very informational and I bet it took you a long time Edit: he took away the heart
the whole video is a continuum of wars.....from war to war from day one to today....Hitlers massacres were omitted but their bloodthirsty hate and need for domination at all costs becomes clear.
Nah, the heart goes away when you edit a comment. Happend to me too.
A friend of mine, after drinking a couple of beers, enjoys teasing anyone, while offering them a drink. If I bring him a German friend, his joke is invariably the following one: "Great Germany. And the Germans are excellent people. But every now and then you suddenly go crazy, start a war and unfailingly lose it" ;-) My German friends do not protest (especially the Swabians), also because the Other continues to offer a drink :-) And refusing could provoke a war, given the proximity to Legnano .. Waiter: another bottle of wine! (just to smile)
If you want to say about real history of one single unified country called "Germany" - not many tribes, not federation, not just people with similar language it started from Prussia
Heart goes away when you edit
I started to watch the documentary series The Germans and now came here, it is nice because the series focused on the most important people in greater depth and this documentary fills in the timeline. Also first time I heard of the teutonic cursades! That is super interesting! Thank you 🙏

Cheers mate, I'm German and really love the UK I even used to live there for 6 months.
Ya... because of us 🇺🇸
Lol
Thank you for this wonderful presentation! The artwork you compiled for visuals is nothing short of stunning! I could look at medieval art all day. :)
Interesting and informative !!!! Audio was crisp and clear, great work, thank you !!!!
Ah ... very well done. Excellent scholarship. No nonsense, good history doesn't need bells and whistles and stupid jokes; it just needs extensive knowledge of source material, good judgement/scholarly perspective and finally clear prose. Thank you. As a German American I congratulate you on your very Germanic-like style. Excellence and acuity need no embellishment.
My mother was born in Stettin,Prussia (now part of Poland) in 1941. I was born in Bremerhaven,W.Germany in 1961. I also served in the U.S.Navy. I love well made docs. Keep it up. Instead of indoctrinating our kids,the schools should be showing these. It's too bad when my phone is smarter than these kids coming out of schools now. Keep America Great!
This was an excellent video, with such detailed explanations. I cannot imagine the effort that must have put in making this video. Thanks a lot for this! Eagerly waiting for the second part...
Excellent work! It jells with my memory of my college studies, but your presentation has much more nuanced detail; as soon as I get some extra funds, I will donate! I am looking forward to Part 2 of the history of Germany; by the way, I am an American living in Austria.
This was the best documentary of Germany I have found on KZhead thus far (I have watched 4 others). I will definitely like subscribe and view part II.
Really informative. Nice work. Liked and subbed 👍😆
Fantastic history! Thanks so much for creating this, I learned a lot 🙂

Wonderful documentary!! I am so excited to have found your channel! Cable does not respect our intelligence anymore. Not even with the History channel or Travel channel. Thank you so much for providing these.
I've been researching my family tree and discovered I have strong German ancestry. Thank you for making this video so I can learn more about their home and culture
Stupendous doc. History made exciting thanks to your detailed research and soothing voice
I loved this documentary. I learned so much. And I see you have a part two so THANK YOU!
Good to know ,Stay blessed and safe..
Germany have some Amazing History, Including Culture, Art, Thanks For Sharing..
Everybody everywhere has amazing history
+J Suza not really
@@jsuza1381 But this video is about Germany. What's your point?
Culture came from the south as presented. Thus the lingua cultura is latin ( and greek as still being taught in οxford cambr....etc ) up to 19th century

This really is great, as well as others you have done. This is small but what would be cool in the future History of... would be an overlay of current boundaries as the maps progress through the video. Thanks for all the work.
Thank you for this doc. I've been on a mission for the last couple of months to find out more about my German ancestors, where they came from, the German language and Germanic Paganism.
Fantastic history. well done. Thank You!
Great documentary! Incredibly detailed with tons of research = really interesting... well, to us history loving nerds anyway. Thank you for your hard work.
Great job - I can't believe I haven't stumbled upon you guys before!

Being German it’s great to hear about our history more than WWII I’ve been waiting for a documentary about this topic!
Ich mag Preußen nicht. ich mag nur kaisereich und hitlereich
Ausgezeichnet, excellent! Vielen Dank. Ich hab' alles genoßen!
Your documentaries are sone if the best in the entirety of KZhead. Thank you for what you do. History of Slavs next! Many of us would be greatly thankful for that.
I thought I knew a lot about German history but turns out I knew less than 50%. Top vid!
We lost war....and the cousin's. Were happy to celebrate.....oh these nasty germans. Oh the harrrsh language.....etc....thats why.....no learning. Only mean most of the time....lets work for understanding
No matter how informative, organized, and simplified this may be, my head will remain spinning forever.
Why am I just now finding your channel?! Keeping the great material coming!
Thank you for this insightful video. That is an incredible story, if not a complex mix of leaders of regions, states and church. Incredible how such a divided land was able to unite. I look forward to watching other countries histories. While they are somewhat an offshoot of European expansion, the histories of Canada and Australia would be interesting to see.
Greetings from Duisburg Very good video that explains the history of the Germans in Central Europe from the Cimbri and Teutons to the end of the Middle Ages very well. I am looking forward to Part 2
thank for your history of Germany fire of learning this is awesome

AMAZING im not gonna pretend that i memorized any of this but i at least now have SOME sort of idea I dont know why i never gave History a chance thanx
Is there a part 3, going from the Reformation to contemporary German history? I really want to see the next instalment. Great work. Thanks
loved it! Keep up the great work. Would love to see enough Patreon patronage to get one of these per European nation please
My Grandmas grandparents were German immigrants. (1880's) I love your videos!
This was a tough listen but much appreciated… thank you ❤❤❤
Thank you for the history lesson. I enjoyed this overview very much; it puts a lot into perspective. BTW, if you're interested in doing an history of an elusive subject, how about the politics of Central America leading up to the arrival of Cortez and a brief overview of Spanish rule there. It is uncommon for most people to know that the power politics there were the same as elsewhere in the world, and that Cortez's presence was, at the time, just another counter in the Central American chess game.
I learned more from this video than about ten other ones combined.
Or high school
Great work! Thank you so much
I know I was just recommended your channel I don't work I don't know why now cos I love history you are getting me through my cold thank you very much
