Hello, dear viewers. We're happy to present this new, more detailed video about the First World War. This will be followed by a new video on the Second World War. Two quick notes: 1) Arthur Balfour was indeed only a minister -- not prime minister -- at the time he published the letter to Lord Rothschild. 2) The name François-Ferdinand is the French version of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria. We hope you like the video. If you'd like to support our mission of making history more accessible to the general public, consider donating to our Patreon: www.patreon.com/geohistory
How do you make these videos?
can you teach me video editing you biggest fan
Can u do one of these videos on the vietnam war? My pop that died two years ago was involved in the war and i didnt learn much from him..
Cool and video better I love you did thus
Please release ww2 history as quick as possible 😁👍
In both world wars we learned that Germany is a monster good at everything except for finding allies that are useful
Indeed
That is true lmao
Italy: Guys I have a great idea Italy has left the chat
@@ihatefortnightgivemeareaso5659 exactly it is Italy: guys I got a great idea Italy switches team's
Don't talk about Italy like that!
Fun fact: To contribute to the war effort German women gave their gold marriage rings and replaced them with iron ones that had "Ich gab Gold für Eisen" (I gave gold for iron) written on them
That's neat
Wow really?
Good fun fact
Battlefield 1 player eh? Looks like someone loves loading screen tips
Eisen means Iron not Silver!
This is one of the best summaries of WWI that I’ve seen or read. I think what makes it great is the changes on the world map. I’m a historian so when I read historical documents, I always check maps to mark as I read. This helps with understanding the historical consequences of what and why events unfolded. Kudos. I think these videos should be shared in history classes and the students should break it down by decade. Well done.
@@johnmanning5568 Re-read the video title, this video is about World War One
They didn't say anything about heroic Serbia and their defence. The fact is that Serbia is attacked from 10 time much populated Austro-hungary. Such a little nation which survived retreat across Albania mountains where all european countres wrote off Serbians. At the that time, all the allies was admired Serbia, how such a little nation survived and won in WWI. Serbia suffered the worst casualties, as a proportion of its population, of all nations in World War One. Out of a population of 4 million, Serbia lost 1.1 million people in the war, or 27% of its population and over 60% of its male population 265,000 Serbian soldiers died or 25% of all mobilised men
@milosbajovic2971 I beg to differ. Serbia is a little country with a big chip on its shoulder. They were responsible for WWI and they have contributed NOTHING to the betterment of the world: no scientists, artists, musician, architecture, mathematics, philosophy or other civilized learning. They were under the boot heel of the Ottoman Empire and they never evolved. Go back to your cave and start improving yourselves.

really enjoyed reading the comments on this video about World War I. It's amazing to see how people are engaged and interested in history. The video's use of maps really helped me understand the historical context and consequences of events, and it's great to see others having the same experience. I think this video would be an excellent resource for students in history classes, as it provides a clear and concise summary of the war. I also appreciate the insights shared in the comments, such as the one about Germany's struggles to find useful allies. It's clear that there's still so much to learn about this complex and important period in world history. Thanks for sharing your thoughts

"Europe today is a powder keg and the leaders are like men smoking in an arsenal … A single spark will set off an explosion that will consume us all … I cannot tell you when that explosion will occur, but I can tell you where … Some damned foolish thing in the Balkans will set it off." -- German Chancellor Otto Von Bismark (1878)

@Divalvaro Germany has bigger economy than any of the Allies in Europe
but, isn't that with everything in life? Everytime you get told something you shouldn't do, you'd probably be like 'nah it'll be alright' but when something bad really happens, you learn from it and try to avoid it. You learn more from mistakes then you learn from getting told.
@Divalvaro Germany still has a strong economy today, and Germany managed to destroy the british and french colonial empires by weakening them to american and soviet influence. Germany today is the center of the EU and has created a sphere of peace and an age of utopia in Europe.
@Azshishchenkovy Andreyuskins military wise is it dumb to say who has the strongest army It's more like who has the economy and Germany has a bigger economy then France Ore Britain means they can afford war better and longer so no Germany is stronger than France Ore Britain However war would be unlikely fore several reasons War is not cheap It would cost way more than it would actually bring the winner Second all off the just Listed Nations are part of an Military alliance And an economic alliance
A few things to note: 1. If History Matters is accurate, the Schillfen Plan was initially reversed at the start, this meant Germany was going to initially focus on Russia before going after France. So why the total 180 where Germany focused on France before going after Russia? The Russo/Japanese War of 1904-1905 which saw the Russian military get completely humiliated by Japan,after this Germany no longer saw Russia as an immediate concern/threat. 2. Why was Italy initially neutral? As the Triple Alliance treaty was a defensive pact and Austria threw the 1st punch by declaring war on Serbia, Italy wasn't obligated under treaty obligations to help Austria. In fact, Austria's 1908 annexation of Bosnia nearly caused Italy to leave the Triple Alliance. 3. Why did Germany help Austria even though Austria technically threw the 1st punch? Because Germany was of the thinking that if their Austro-Hungarian allies were left to their own devices that Austria-Hungary would lose the war by 1917 at the latest. 3. The reason why the other powers of Europe objected to the Treaty Of San Stefano was the Bulgaria that was proposed. This Bulgaria would've been a Russian puppet that would've given Russia access to the Mediterranean Sea. For the other powers of Europe, it was a step too far: 1.The UK and France objected as Russia with access to the Mediterranean Sea would potentially make Russia a threat to the African colonies of the UK and France and possibly the Suez Canal. 2. Austria-Hungary objected because they felt the Treaty Of San Stefano gave Russia too much influence in the Balkans.
This is super fascinating in it's presentation, excellent work!
When your friend provoked the conflict but the teachers blame it on you Edit : thank you for 1000 likes 😘
And who is the teacher?
Germany dreamed of becoming a prosperous state Colonial neighbours particularly Britain and France didn't like rise of their new neighbour : WW I started The greedy France and UK Colonialists eyeing oil in iran they destroyed the ottoman empire and brought terrorism to the world America as always for protecting its trade interest supported allies and became rich and hence powerful People died because of greed.

Fantastic posting !! It shows how mad war is. Thanks
In my history class in the US we were taught that there were 5 main reasons for WW1: Alliances, Imperialism, Militarism, Nationalism, and Assassination. However even in my High School World History class they didn’t teach about the specific events that led to WW1. They didn’t teach about the collapse of the Holy Roman Empire or the German and Italian wars of Unification. I didn’t learn about the Russo-Turkish War (1877-1878) or the Balkan Wars which happened right before WW1. I’m not sure if they even told us why the Archduke was assassinated. At the end of the war school focused mainly on Wilson’s 14 Points, the League of Nations, and the Treaty of Versailles. We didn’t learn about the German Civil War, Greco-Turkish War, or the Polish Soviet War. The only conflict after the war we learned about was the Russian Revolution. I didn’t realize how violent the aftermath of the war was. I guess they didn’t want to focus too much on things that weren’t relevant to the US.
In my Sophomore history class in HS, they only talked about WW1 for 2 days and it was mainly just about Zimmerman Tellegram and Franz Ferdinand lmao. We learned NOTHING else about WW1 or any other cause of WW1
Those were topics that were mainly explored in European History classes.

16:18 one big reason why the German people considered the treaty a humiliation, is because the treaty named "Germany and its allies" as the ones responsible for the war (and because of that wording Germany as primarily responsible) while the population counted the reason for joining the war as honouring its alliance to Austria-Hungary
"Germany" (Deutschland) did not exist back then. It was the "German Reich" (Deutsches Reich). There is a big difference.

Excellent resume, with the maps; I have always been confused about the European situation leading up to WWII.
Excellent! Wish I’d had this when I was in high school…would’ve saved SO much time. :)
We did not start the war.....and thank you for all the english.propaganda. from the motherland to the USA... We were the "huns and babykillers" and, the kaiser wanted colonies. That shoul be oonly. For the empaaaer....all that hate. Still going....look at the films......
Serbia won the first win for the allies against Austrohungary on the cer mountain. And fun fact in Canada is a mountain called Putnik mountain named after Serbian WW1 general Radomir Putnik.
serbia just started that war and then they fled through albania and greece. the Serbs never won a single war. you are partly right about Mount Putnik ... because the Serbs traveled (fled) over that mountain.
@@joelsimunic7381 Look, my friend, the Serbs not only brought the first victories for the allies in the Great War (Mount Cer and the Kolubara River), but by breaking through the Thessaloniki Front, they initiated reconciliation on the Western Front. Now, I understand your frustration as a Croat (a nation that helped Hitler and the Nazis) Mount Putnik exists in Canada
@@crnidjordje8340 As early as August 1942, General Alexander Löhr, the Nazi protector of Serbia, proclaimed Serbia a "Judenfrei" ("Jewish-free" - a Nazi term for an area cleansed of Jews) and praised Serbs and Serbia for their help in ethnic cleansing. Nedic's Serbia imprisoned Jews and Roma in the following concentration camps: Banjica Concentration Camp (near Belgrade) Sajmište concentration camp (Zemun near Belgrade, then NDH, but under the direct administration of the Third Reich, occupation zone East Srijem) Cannon sheds, near Belgrade Veliki Beckerek, Zrenjanin Red Cross (in Nis) (30,000, of which about 12,000 were shot, the rest were taken to other camps) Dulag, (Sabac) Svilara (Pancevo) Paracin The "final solution" of the Jewish question was carried out at the Fairgrounds with the arrival of a gas chamber-van from Germany. One of the first such vans was sent to Belgrade. As early as March and May 1942, every morning except Sundays and holidays, a van was loaded with Jewish children, women, and the elderly who were told to move them. Seemingly kind, and information can be found that children were even given sweets on board, just like Ratko Mladic, who treated Bosniak children in Srebrenica the same way. In total, some estimate that as many as 80,000 people were killed in concentration camps throughout Nedic's Serbia from 1941 to 1944. The Serbian propaganda machinery, which can be compared to the Nazi one in terms of success, is gaining momentum, as is the revisionism of the genocidal actions of Serbian governments in the Second World War, similar to the wars of the 1990s. Revisionism, which seeks to make Serbs the only victims, requires attention and honest disclosure. Serbia needs to experience catharsis. While other countries, including Croatia, have accepted that regimes and individuals have committed crimes and are not trying to revise them, the fact is that Serbian politicians still live in myths and legends.
@@joelsimunic7381 Complexes, complexes and only complexes, you said all that well, except for one thing, and that is that these people were set up by the Germans, right after April 4 when they bombed us and divided the country into 8 parts. Croats (Ustashas) and the German Gestapo. Let me tell you something else, pay attention to your camps and how many people you killed, women, children, grandparents, Gypsy Jews. If you were great opponents of Hitler, did you have someone who was in your captivity, or were they all killed in Bleiburg?

Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire were bitter rivals for centuries before WW1. Both empires died in that conflict - fate loves irony.
This presentation just put alot of history teachers out of work.
Surprisingly comprehensive and understandable
Major fact. At the end in the aftermath there was a huge war between newborn Poland and Soviets during which Poland defend own independence alongside with Baltic states. Without that the European map after IWW would had been quite different and soviet revolution would reach Germany immediately and the war would spread along Europe again, so this was quite significant.
as usual, a Pole should appear who should shit on the Soviets and blame them
There was also other fights on Russian territory where British and other western troops fought for the zarist side. This cooled down to become the cold war, with a less tense period before and during WW2.
You right, but "westerners" do not care. Polish-Soviet war of 1920 was "oriental" for them. But that war shows that Suvorov could have been right in "Icebreaker" book stating that Stalin planned to conquer whole Europe. And now 100 years later there is another Russian idiot who want to conquer one country by another with a slogan "Go west" - like that 30yo song. Good news is now "westerners" do not leave it as an "oriental" war and care more... so far. We'll see what happen.
Also in Ukraine.
DUDE!!!!!! ARE YOU STUPID?????? BRITISH FORCES NEVER PREPARED TO ENTER PALESTINE!!!!!!!! BECAUSE PALESTINE NEVER EXISTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FINALLY, I FOUND SOMEONE THAT ADMIT IT!!!!
What are you doing step german empire uwu
It’s making me quite... Hungary

Not really have a detail I mean theres a zig zags but it have to be more
Fun fact: In Germany, Austria and other countries, there were so-called "war nailings" from 1915 to finance the war. In this process, a nail was hammered into a wooden object for a sum of money. In the end, these objects, which were full of nails, resulted in monuments.
Indiaaa
this is a great summarization, but missed major points while naming the battles, love this channel, just pointing out where you can do better
Great animation! The northern winter of 17-18 was so cold that it took ages to find soldiers dying from the pandemic. War deaths had better records than pandemic deaths.
Great breakdown. Informative and interesting. I love how you show the cause effect relationship that led to both World Wars.
A summary including the Armenian genocide of the WW1 ?? Very impressive! Thank you for doing this.
Britain: „you can’t violate belgiums neutrality ! War!! Also Britain: Violates Greek neutrality
All is fair in love and war!

uri argaman what about the Arabic peninsula france and Britain didn’t give what they promised
Jonathan im not. The german - austrian forces pushed italy almost to venice. Italy only pushed to trieste and the coast of dalmatia with the help of other entente armies
Well done. A very clear synopsis. Can't wait to check out your other videos.
Outstanding summary.
I just learned more in 20 minutes than I did in 5 years of history classes...very informative 👏 👍
WW1 is a truly awful time in history but watching a video like this gives you a better understanding of what caused the war to the consequences of the war, good job man
Ja danke endlich....endlich etwas.....all that hate......wahnsinn.....oh these germans. We are great.....
i agree. was about to say that. i realised what i meant for france as the new german state was formed. russia who used to have good relations with prussia back then is slowly pushed away
@@johnmanning5568no? cant you tell? 1914-1918 is ww1, ww2 is from 1939-1945
Dude, I love your channel so much! You have no idea what a service you are doing to people who love history. Soldier on, brother!
Dude dont know a shit
I am from Montenegro and i live in small city on the north called Mojkovac, if you google 'Mojkovacka bitka' or battle of Mojkovac You can find that here we (Montenegrians and Serbs combined) fought vs Austrohungarians, while they had 4:1 army advantage, we still won Tho days later they send ships on our coast in towns Kotor and Herceg Novi which are close to our old capital Cetinje and then we surrendered because of too many enemy soldiers and no ammo supplies for our country...
Great work!
This is really well done, few youtube videos fit in all the various fronts of the war (including the less well kown ones like Macedonia and Mesoptamia), the timeline of various nations entering later in the war, the consequences and fallout of various decisions (Balfour Declaration and such) all within a short timeframe. Bravo!
I like how there is chill music in the background while talking about war 😂
Japan in every World War : *Sees Europe tearing itself part* "So anyway, i started blasting around"
Fantastic summary.
Montenegro is very underestimated during the First World War. They were able to successfully defend their Serbian brothers, letting them pass through to Greece without succumbing to the Austro-Hungarians. The great general Janko Vukotic said: “while the oak wood burns, know that last night was your last Christmas Eve, we have to die so that our Serbian brothers can pass through”. Pivotal moment yet less known. It allowed for the Serbian military to regain strength and then push through the Austrian front and kick them out of Serbia.
That's right. No Serb supports King Alexander's decision to expel his grandfather Nikola and humiliate Montenegro.
When your comment gets copied by a bot
yet Serbs repaid us for that by ocupation in 1918 and deleting our country.
Dude even the ottoman was underestimated lol. It was all about brits and their friends back than
So thankful to be apart of the generation that didn't have to go to war and got to play epic world of warcraft instead, I love the 2020 future!

Only found this recently after watching another small video on WW1. Although I thought this would be interesting, I like it even more than I expected. Steady narration, clear visuals and much more info on the leadup to that war. Really nice.
As a shade-tree historian, I found this very enjoyable and informative 👍.
They didn't say anything about heroic Serbia and their defence. The fact is that Serbia is attacked from 10 time much populated Austro-hungary. Such a little nation which survived retreat across Albania mountains where all european countres wrote off Serbians. At the that time, all the allies was admired Serbia, how such a little nation survived and won in WWI. Serbia suffered the worst casualties, as a proportion of its population, of all nations in World War One. Out of a population of 4 million, Serbia lost 1.1 million people in the war, or 27% of its population and over 60% of its male population 265,000 Serbian soldiers died or 25% of all mobilised men
4:40 "Only Italy Remains Neutral." Switzerland, Spain, Norway, Sweden, Portugal: Are We a Joke to you?
He means Italy is the only country that’s in a treaty that’s neutral
And also Denmark to
I think he just meant European Powers that remained neutral, not European countries
@@makemeasandwich9781 imagine Spain not being a power
@@Nexandr It wasn't. Spain had been declining for a while, and then the Spanish-American war put them onto the sidelines for good. The main powers around the time of WW1 were the Germans, French, Italians, British, Austro-Hungarians, and the Russians.
Hahaha "All European Powers, INCLUDING Montenegro are now in the War. Only Italy remains neutral." I'm glad you included the Montenegrin Power.
He said "as well as" which means "all european powers" and Montenegro with them. He actually separated Montenegro because it is tiny
Italy entered in war in 1915
What a great video, well done
Brilliant video. Fascinating
What blows my mind is in retrospect that the end of the war was only about 100 years ago...with how fast 1 year is going right now to me...Holy cow a lot has happened. We really need to learn from this. Theres so much to learn in history from the people before us!!
This was an excellent high level presentation of issues, facts and outcomes. Well done.
Nope, it was just a superficial exposure to people who know almost nothing about history.

An excellent presentation. Thanks. Easy to follow. Educative. Simplified maps that are just right and well paced and clear diction. The editors have restrained themselves and reduced the background moosick to just acceptable.
It's incredible that so many countries were fighting and revolting against one another we always think of 4 or 5 countries were fighting that then spilled over which wasn't the case
Excellent explanation.
Great video!
