The treaty of Tordesilhas is actually flipped. Spain would get everything west of the line and Portugal east of the line.
Daaamn, imagine having a portuguese speaking Latin America and a spanish speaking Brasil. That's some weird fucked up scenario right there kkkkkkk
@@AlyeahTheBoos Brazil is also technically Latin American
@@rafaelbastos8713 Brazil is Latin American while Spain is Hispanic
@@rafaelbastos8713 Yes and French Guiana is on latin america beacuse they speak spanish french Spanish,Portugese and French come from latin so it is latin america
And Latin Europe is, in cronological order, italy, Spain, Portugal, France and Romania (?)
Edit: there's also Andorra, San Marino, Monaco and the Vatican. Like the one below me said
Edit #2: also Moldova and parts of Switzerland
A few reasons for having war plans for every country -
1. They make useful training aides to get junior officers thinking outside of the box.
2. If the existence of a war plan against your actual rival leaks and they start getting pissy, you can honestly say you just have one for everybody.
3. Sometimes, crazy stuff just happens. Better to have and not need, than to need and not have.
Just like a gun!
I came down here to mention those last two points. Not to go too deep in realpolitik, but we've seen some serious shifts in alliances during the 20th century. Better be prepared than caught flat-footed.
the US and Britain also thought it was a fairly high possibility of going to war in the 1920s
Why is my country UK on the skull in pov its ww2 and u live in
As a Canadian, I forgive the USA.
Fun fact:
Most of Northern Canada is untamed wilderness. It looks like another planet. Ripe with beautiful forests and an abundance of animals. The best thing about the Canadian wilderness is please help, Drew kidnapped my family and said he would execute them because I had said that Yugoslavia didn't exist anymore.

Not so fun fact: Félicette (the name of the cat) came back alive on Earth. The flight lasted approximatively 15min actually. But after 2 to 3 months of being observed by scientists, she was euthanized in 1964 to retrieve the electrodes in her brain.
In 2017 a Kickstarter was created so that she could have a statue made of herself as a tribute. It is now located in the International Space University, in Eastern France.
There are a surprising number of statues of cats in the world. I especially like the statue of Samuel Johnson’s cat Hodge with his oyster shells. Johnson personally bought oysters for him so the servants would not be annoyed at having to shop for a cat.
There is also a statue of Matthew Flinders and his cat Trim, who were the first to circumnavigate Australia.

That's the fun part.
@@someonejustsomeone1469 maybe, now I understand it 👍
I was wondering that aswell. If Portugal got all those stuff in the new world, then most of South america and Central america would be speaking portuguese
Little context to Greece uncanny is that always when some Greek resistance happened the Germans went to a random village killed every single person in there and burned it down.
yet the Greeks kept resisting anyway, absolute chads
Hell yeah we did 😔✊️
@@plasmakitten4261 You talk as if that's a good thing. Imagine living in a random village, trying to live your life till the war ends either way, and then someone comes in and slaughters you along with your entire family because some guys who-knows-where went "hurr durr, long live the resistance!"
And also we had a million casualties, one of the biggest percentages of deaths. Out of an initial population of 7 million, it was around 15-16% of the population of Greece, and that's without counting Cypriot and Northern Epirot volunteers
Same thing happened in Poland. I believe whenever one german soldier was killed by resistance 100 poles would be killed.

Fun Fact: Samurai primarily used their bows in huge fights mainly because they rode on horseback, with the Katana's usage being relegated to either duels or as a backup weapon when they fall of their horse in the middle of the fray.
This was because of how expensive swords were in general, especially in Japan due to the low quality of Japanese metal, weapons like spears or bows were more desirable due to their cost.
Katanas were more of a symbol of wealth than anything.
Although the clip at the start is pretty realistic, considering it's a duel.
Definitely most overrated weapon of medieval times
Yes, but by the Sengoku period, samurai started moving towards using fire arms and spears as primary weapons.
It’s important to note low supply no longer became a issue in later periods. Cheaply made lesser swords became a rather common endeavor. It’s just that they still couldn’t make them really high quality.
@@GeraltofRivia22 @Geralt of Rivia but not all factions do so, as firearms are only can be acquired in a few trade ports open to the Portuguese, and even less places that manufacture them, i can count the clans that heavily utilizes fire arms at the early sengoku jidai period with one hand.
Oda clan is famous for using it, but the first to mass using them are actually the Satsuma clan in the western japan, there is also the Sarada clan (vassal of Takeda) who only employs them in hundreds (which is considered pretty big while Takeda Shingen is alive), and then there is the ikko ikki monks that heavily used firearms religiously (yep for real, they thought their monks to fight with guns as a spiritual training to reach heaven or some shiet).
After the fall of Oda then we start to see the mass usage of fire arms because how well Oda Nobunaga utilizes them (especially by parties that used to work under or with Oda, such as Akechi Mitsuhide, Toyotomi Hideyoshi or Tokugawa Ieyasu). Thanks to Oda's effort to mass produce guns inside the country of Japan instead of importing them.
But i agree with the spears tho. Oda Nobunaga is also the most famous at his implementations of longer spears compared to other factions and standardize its length, usage, and training. The huge cost advantage of manufacturing and training and killing-range compared to swords lead to the logical use of spears as the most used weapons by infantries (like any other countries at that time in the world until guns are used). While for samurai they are kinda mixed between spears or naginata (for melee), because each have their own preference of fighting style. But they also uses bow, as its the standard for most samurai to do at that time.

Why are the countries switched? Portugal's part was the one that, for some reason, has Spain's name in it. We had Africa and India, Spain had most of the Americas.

2:14 Greece lost a million people during World War Two, in the fighting and during the occupation because of food shortages. That might not sound like a lot by world standards but from a population of 7 million pre war, it's approximately 15% of the total population, the biggest percentage out of any other country involved (unless there's some microstate I'm forgetting)
Greece indeed suffered immensely during the war. But the Greeks were the first to defeat an Axis power on continental Europe when they defeated the Italians in 1940. Also, I think Poland lost like 16% - 18% of its population. And Belarus lost like 25% but it wasn’t independent then, so Greece didn’t the highest proportion of its population.
@@UlisesHeureaux Yugoslavia lost about 1,5 to 2 million people also
@@UlisesHeureaux I didn't know that about Poland, thanks! It probably had to do with the Jewish community there being pretty big, and the Greek Jewish community in Thessaloniki was also exterminated. But yeah Belarus probably shouldn't count, as they were a region of the USSR essentially.
USSR lost 27 million people, over 15%
Belarus lost 25% of its population. The most brutal occupation was there, Germans burnt entire villages suspected in partisan activity. It was so bad in fact that Belarus's Independence day is not the day it broke up from Russia, but when it was liberated from nацis
0:34 i mean cmon guys its called Sho GUN not Sho KATANA
Russia: Theres no way we can be invaded, we are the strongest-
The Mongols: We gonna do a lil bit of trolling *creats giant empire*
using chinese manpower and economy, but shhhhh
@@pallingtontheshrike6374 shhhhhhhhh
The Mongol Empire and Russia never existed at the same time period. Kievan Rus is the equivalent to the European Union in that all states have a trade agreement and frequently protect each other from invaders, but they were never one large country and never even remotely close to being Russias size. Around the time the mongols invaded, Vladimir-Suzdal was becoming more powerful, having razed Kyiv and forever destroyed its political relevance decades prior. The entire region was now divided into countless succession wars between various members of the Rurikid dynasty and this allowed the Mongols to easily conquer most of it excluding Novgorod. Even then, the parts of the Kievan Rus that are part of Russia today(and not Ukraine, Belarus, Poland, Lithuania, and Latvia) are roughly 30% of the European part of Russia, meaning around 7% of all of Russia today.

7:05 exactly why Russia doesn’t like sharing a long border with China. So they first helped Mongolia gain independence to serve as a buffer, but there’s still a very narrow (14km iirc) border in Xinjiang (the Uyghur province) so they’ve been supporting independence movements there as well despite supposedly being a Chinese ally.
It's complicated as hell...
did you forget they still have border with Chinese Manchuria?
@@archer8849 not at all, but they wouldn't care about that part of the border as much as the western part closer to the heartland of Russia. As China, if you attack Russia from the east you will have a long way to go, but if you go up from the west you instantly cut Russia in half
5:43 Poland with Estonia and romania
4:35 Drew's YEET was amazing
1:40
this man doesnt know what happened in Greece...
SO HERE'S A QUICK RECAP!
Greece caused the most casualties to Germany as a minor nation in the war. Greece singlehandedly delayed Operation Barbarossa. Greece had 800,000 casualties, 400k of which where civillian deaths. Greece had the biggest resistance group aside from Tito in Yugoslavia. The last island to fall, Crete, caused countless casualties to the Germans even after the australian reinforcements left. Greece never capitulated or surrendered.
Wasn't there a civil war too?
2:55 it was actually a portuguese princess that was really adicted to it that showed the brits their beloved tea
True. Catarina was a portuguese princess that marryed the king of England
6:16 Bundeswehr, Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine: 3 german individuals
Bundeswehr was Wehrmacht back then
5:00 Actually, swap the countries. Probably made in US.
3:35
That's the exact reason
I love how they show the treaty of Tordesillas in the map and then switch the Portuguese and Spanish part.
It's 50/50 man
You had one job!
4:02 Imagine if Canada and America caught each other invading one another at the same time
me an estonian at 5:30 when drew mentions estonia:

instant like for that, also its one of the proudest moments of our history, too sad Päts sold the country to the soviets before ww2

Estonian Independence war isn't as popular as the Winter war. Also Estonians with help of Germans held back Soviet army for quite some time so people could evacuate from capital.
Finns helped Estonia in major ways.
@@uja2183 Brits also helped a little but mostly estonians, white russians and volunteers from scandinavia
Me : it's impossible to teach and entertain people at the same time

*We’re gonna do what is called a pro gamer move*

@@theMrMarlboroMan He's speaking from the perspective of Russia.
Re: the invasion plans for Canada. One of the reasons for the Washington Naval Treaty was to prevent a war between the US and British Empire. I've heard estimates that things may have come to a head in the late 1920's since the US then had the capability to surpass the Royal Navy in battleship numbers. In theory at any rate. The British shipyards were still capable of greater output but it would have screwed everybody's economy over.
Concerns were that if both sides tried to out build each other the arms race would have sparked a war, and Japan and UK were still allied.
Both sides Navies: Haha! Battleship production go brrr
Both sides politicians: I dont want to pay for that though.
1:09 This post was brought to you by Austria Gang
They always act like they have suffered the same fate as Czechia or even Poland
8:18 "There's only one country that frightens me - that's the country of Germany. I don't know if you guys are students of history or not, but... For those of you who aren't, Germany, in the previous century - in the early part... they decided to go to war. And who did they choose to go to war with? The world. So you think that would last about five seconds and the world would win, and that would be that. But it was actually close. And then... I don't know how that worked, but... Then 30 years pass, and Germany decides to go to war again. And, once again, they choose as their foe... the world! And now... this time, they really almost win. So at this point you would think the world would go, "Germany, you're not a country any more, all right?" "You're not a country because you keep going to war with the world," and... no one does... "What do you think you are, Mars?" "Do you think you're Mars or something?" (Norm Macdonald)

Yes we are but how did he find out🤯😱
yeah and after all of this they got better deal than Poland
The Sino-Soviet split is basically like this:
USSR Communism: "noooo we need to follow Marx's fanfiction!!!!1!! You can't just replace worker's revolution and industrialization with peasant revolution and agriculture!!!!1!"
China's communism: "lol agrarian society go brrrrrr"
Basically, while they both were communist, Maoist communism and Soviet communism became COMPLETELY different systems are that no longer were compatible.
It was more like:
China: Noooo you can't ditch Stalinism -and actually feed the people- nooo!
Soviet Union: haha Revisionism go brrr.
It was more like:
China: we tried Marx's fanfiction, and accidentally killed 50 million people, so yeah, we're doing it differently.
Also because when Khrushchev criticized Stalin, Mao took it personally since he ruled in pretty much the same way. Also Mao just didn't want to be the USSR's junior in promoting global communism - he wanted China to be the internationally recognized leader of communism, not the USSR
@@zyanego3170 Ya know even USSR spoke out against China's Great Leap Forward. China would have been a much better place in 60s and 70s if it were to be a Soviet puppet than following Maoism. Plus there would be more aid from Soviets and no war effort would need to be made to prepare a nuclear war against Soviet Union, which happened in real life in 1970s.
@@nathangamble125 It was more like Mao's fanfiction.

1:40 the war in greece was brutal, to begin with, fighting italy was very chalenging and it depleted the kingdoms resurces. then when germany came to anex the country many fought back, but the resestance was chased down en mass, the germans killed hundred in every village and then hung them just to fear people, or in the famous exampe of kalavrita, where 1400 men where executed and the town hall was burned down. finally, after their unexpected strugle in the capturing of crete, the germans implimented heavy tax and punishment methods across the country. it was very bad.
