”Canada gave up land to the polish in 1920 for the fallen soldiers of WW2”. Drew is gonna rewrite history.
I mean of we count the 7 years war As world war one then this is a compleatly correct sentence
Yes
Of course
Wtf 2 w wtf
"Frankly, I enjoyed the war" man had a song written about himself. 'The unkillable soldier' by Sabaton.
Sabaton destroyed my left ear. 👍14/10
To be fair: The Art of War was written as the most basic advice possible for ancient nobles who had zero idea how to war.
On War was intended to be an overview of modern war for military officers in training / already trained in the early to mid 1800s.
Both are really good at what they're trying to do, it's just that they're not trying to do quite the same thing.
Ok then,I will read Art of War first and later On War,Thank you!
@@isabelgonzalezserrano1229 What are you planning to do? A little bit of trolling in Europe?
@@qhayiya252 YES
what war did you fight "I enjoyed the war" cuz I just read forgotten highlander

The really crazy part is there was one American guy who went out of his way to bayonet charge a German machine gun at 10:59 am. The Germans tried to wave him off, then fired warning shots, but he wouldn't stop, so they finally shot and killed him. He was the last known soldier to die in combat in WW1.
That sounds kinda sad
If he really was as bloodthirsty as this story makes it sound, he had it coming.
@@fandyus4125 Less a case of blood thirst I think and more a case of suicide by German.
@@fandyus4125 I think the reason he charged the Germans was to reclaim his honor. Earlier in the war he had been demoted for writing home about the terrors of the war and encouraging people who were resisting the draft. He was shamed and put down, and he felt his only chance to reclaim his honor was to defeat a group of Germans, specifically a German machine-gun nest which was guarding a road blockade. While I don't believe taking the lives of the enemy when they weren't a threat at all is worth it to reclaim your honor, it is important to recognize his motive wasn't simply bloodthirst.
If you combine the British waters, the Afghan mountains and the Russian weather you get... Iceland! (I guess it makes sense since they defeated Britain without even having a military)
Plus they have volcanoes and are on an oceanic rift. So not only does the country get bigger, they can also stop all air travel.
5:28 Fun fact: the Allies did actually have plans to nuke Berlin first before Japan became the last member of the Axis still standing, but the reason that never happened was because it fell to the Soviets sooner than many anticipated.
Also fun fact: the first country to actually drop the nuclear bomb could have been Britain, as the American's didn't exactly have a bomber that had a long enough range to get to the target while carrying the massive bomb, only the British Lancaster could. So when the B-29 was made available, they scrapped the plans with the British bomber.
Soviets always ruining everybody's fun.
@@francoislacombe9071Berlin still got flattened by the Allies through the bombings and the battle
@@asordidlobsteri see the British trying to cope for almost losing Ww2
@@angelcabeza6464 Dunno what you're on about mate...
Fun fact; the relationship between Spain and Hispanic America was kinda rocky in the mid 1800s, which led to a war between Spain and a coalition made by Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia and Chile. Both sides claim victory.
8:13 funny thing that ... The region is known as "Burgenland" and is often seen as the "Alabama of Austria" by the rest of Austria. (Its provincial capital has a population of just over 14k.)
If memory serves, it's also home to a large minority of croatians, so hearing that "alabama" bit does raise concerns (any context to this?).
Austria is the Alabama of Europe, so just imagine if Alabama had an Alabama
@@BrainoConf Brah. We might have a slight eastern-European slant and terrible politics, but when it comes to many socio-economic indicators Austria is very high up there in terms of quality of life. There is a reason why Vienna is named the most livable city with over a million inhabitants every years since forever.
In the battle of Adua 10,000 Italian troops and 7,000 Eritrean troops were defeated by 70,000 - 150,000 Ethiopians, which were armed and supported by the British and the French. On top of that the Ethiopians had a superior knowledge of of terrain. One does not have to be an expert to understand that it was not a humiliating defeat at all, if anything it's a miracle that the result was not worse considering the odds. People seem to think that the Ethiopians were armed with sticks and stones only because they are African.
Exactly plus Italy still had regional issues and the commanders of the small Italian force didn’t collaborate which meant the Ethiopians were fighting 2 armies of 3/5k separately.
The humiliation comes the Italian government thinking they could take Ethiopia with just few men, completely underestimating the Ethiopian's number and generals. "Ethiopians being armed with sticks and stones only because they are African." is literally what the Italy though about them.
The reason for "Tamerlame" is because "lame" here means "unable to walk properly" and it's because his foot was damaged during a war. It also might be because those regions hated him so much they tried to humiliate him as much as they could
yeah I'm glad you stated that fact, many ppl forget or don't know about it, but weird thing is, in English it's either Tamerlane or timur the lame
Speaking of, TEDed made an interesting video about his story. If I recall correctly, it was titled "Tamerlane vs History" or something like that
@@georgiandude4810 I was one of those. I translated it from Persian and "lame" didn't make sense until I searched it up
Germany had "Storm of Steel" writer Ernst Jünger who called his bunker his favorite livingroom and compared the drop of grenades on his roof to summer rain :)
“What are doing out barefoot in the rain?”
“Uhhh nothing”
Holds salmon suspiciously
Adrian Carton De Wiart the "Frankly, I enjoyed the war" guy ( who, btw, also described another war as the single greatest experience of his life), is surely a candidate for most interesting man in the world. You could do an entire video just on memes about his life, really someone worth taking a look at, he'd probably take a look at you, but it would has slight perspective problem, because he lost an eye (and more) to war.....yet, still said what he did about his life as a soldier.
I’m pretty certain he had that ultra rare trait of not feeling pain
To be shot in the face and just be irritated at a loss of sight, or biting your own gangrene fingers off casually etc.
Everything he did matches the condition lol
@@XXXTENTAClON227 I'm not sure. There's not a lot of historical evidence for it....adrenaline is a powerful thing....but could be.
“Why are so many world leaders falling?” It’s because they are all ancient.
8:29 as a romanian I can confirm we do in fact hate the Dracula gimmick
better than the gypsie one
@@EldarPanic No not really. I think they are equally bad.
1:37 No Drew, the reason why the Monroe doctrine didn't apply is that Falklanders want to stay in the UK so it's not colonization. Same reason why French Guinea is still a part of France, they had plenty of referendum that showed they wanted to remain a part of France so they're still a part of France and the US don't care.
Also, since there were no Native American on the Falkland Islands, that technically makes the British, who had the first colony there, the actual natives of the Falklands.
Wasn't the french technically first and they sold it to Spain because Pope and line on the map
@@georgiandude4810 Nope, not even remotely close. The English discovered it in 1690 and the French in 1764. But yeah, Argentinians try to pretend otherwise as much as possible because their bogus claim on the islands would become even more bogus.
Also, the Treaty of Torsadillas was between Spain and Portugal. No other country cared or had any reason to care, France sold it to Spain because Spain wanted it and they were allies, that's about it.
@@giantWario and probably also to get more money
i suppose you mean "French GUIANA", not "Guinea" because French Guinea was a French colony in Africa but it is now an independent country
@@francoise4678 Can some alt history freak make a map where both are combined as the 9th Republic of Guinianeana
5:39 well to be pacific Japan initiated conflict
Pacific Ocean
Love the Brazilian flag ❤
Shout-out from Brazil 🇧🇷
7:24 they all didn’t just get a radio message out in 11/11/11, some kept fighting for weeks before they got the call.
Sees a meme about Carton de Wiart…
AT THE EDGE OF MADNESS, HE’LL SHOW NO SADNESS!
The immortal solider has found his home
Drew never let us down
the amount of happiness i got from seeing the brazilian flag another time on the back is so big. Uhhhh about the meme at 6:12 its basicaly that, but they didnt want to do what the sailors wanted to do with them.
9:57 wait, does Canada border three countries then? The USA Denmark and Poland.
i can't find any information about there being any polish territory in north america so i think it might be fake

Petition for Drew to put up the German Empire flag in his videos (Day 1)
Another drew upload, another good day
Drew is teaching me faster than school so once I actually learn it I can spew a bunch of random facts at my ap history

Relevant fun fact: Argentinasaurus is the largest dinosaur ever discovered, and the largest land animal to have ever lived.
Petition for Drew to watch CSTPball's Modern history of europe (day 3 i think)
Los Palmeras in a Drew's video. What time to be alive!!
Monty Python and the Holy Grail memes will never die lol.
that dinosaur has two brains: one in the head and one in the lower spine, so you can't execute it with a standard guillotine.
Man you are a legend, huge support from Ethiopian
We can go there in peace? I don‘t believe it!
The problems only occur when you all go there at once.
I love how everyone don't mention how many men the Ethiopians had......and the fact that they had modern weapons thanks to other Europeans and superior morale/knowledge of the terrain, more than a humiliating defeat it's one of those cases where you ask yourself how the Italians thought they would have won with those numbers and what they actually knew of the Ethiopian army: probably very little....
ppl dont care about context do you ever saw pople talking about the big foreign help usa recevied during the revolutionary war? no, because the narrative is better if it looks like they did it all by themselves like vietnam beating france with way more ppl after 2 world wars,etc
Especially the western german Towns of Düsseldorf, Köln/Cologne and Mainz are celebrating the start of Carnival Season on 11th November at 11:11 am. obody thinks about the end of WW1
Petition for Drew to make a series covering Ace Combat and its multiple universes: [Day 159]
The 159th Combat Aviation Brigade (CAB) formerly supported the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault), and was stationed at Fort Campbell, Kentucky. While active, 159th CAB made the 101st Airborne Division the only US Army Division with two organic aviation brigades, and currently the 101st CAB is the only CAB supporting the unit at Fort Campbell. The 159th CAB was inactivated on 15 May 2015.
@2:30 Drew it isn't the discovery of zero that is important but the base 10 numbering system. In mayan system you would write 40 as 20 20(left to right) in India system it 4 0(right to left).
surprisingly Argentina has had some of the biggest dinosaurs, crocodilians and other reptiles throug out history (for some reason).
5:05 heare the relationship with Portugal is complaining when they will give the gold back lol
5:12 Belka in "Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War" summarized
13:00 The reason he is called "Lame" is actually because it is said that he did all of that while veing chronically disabled in his foot. Unfortunately, there is no better word for "хромой" in english, so the translators settled for "lame"
0:30 Vietnamese forests?
3:27 quadratic formula, aka either the worst nightmare or best memory of every algebra 2 student
3:27 im doing this at school in math class its the formula to calculate where the line is going to reach the X axis in a second degree equation
9:36 pretty much😔
I mean we got a big shiny bean and some corn n stuff but that's really it
10:43 As someone who had to execute an Argentinasaurus for anti revolutionary activities multiple times I'll tell you that the protocol was option b, because the head had to fall in the basket. Vive la rivolution!
4:24 The Minnosota one reminds me of Bill and Ted actor, the none Keanu Reeves one.
The Minnostoa one also looks like they just seen something weird
Hey drew thanks for putting the image of a horse made of potatoes in my head 😄
0:31 Vietnamese trees: Am I a joke to you?
As someone from Minneapolis we don't ask questions about the statue
6:36 I saw this exact meme on this channel about a year ago.
0:54 actually the article is outdated, in 2009 it was changed to "Handling fish in suspicious circumstances" extending the law to any fish specified in the Salmon and Fresh water Fishesries act of 1975
1:06 correction: "i wanna be a historian!"
Reality after graduation: "how am i suppoused to get experience if everyone only hires people with 5+ years experience"
6:01 Finland has lots of bunkers and 1 million soldiers to this day, I would not mess with them either
With 0:35 you have to use the salmon in a crime to make it handled suspiciously like commit assault using the salmon.
I just realized that Drew hang the Brazilian upside-down
I don't think it's upside down
Maybe the video itself is mirrored?
does anyone have an article about the polish niagara territory because im intrested about it but cannot find anything
I think the Monroe doctrine was also referring to _new_ colonies.
make more countryball vids if u want
do you have a license for that salmon bruv?
0, decimal system, pythagoreas theorem, bose einstein condensate, ramanujan system were all first discovered by india

I live close to that Russian settlement, which is found in Sebastopol.
13:03 Timur also defeated the Mamluks and planned on Invading China and restoring the Mongol Empire before he died.
Drew please please please play Countryballs at War. Not only is it a really good game but It just got a brand new massive update today.
Timur lame means he was handicapped and yet did create an empire

That fraze gives us a lot of tourism money se love IT when people come to see vampires and 100s of euros for "haunting" tours.

Petition to get Drew to play his ukulele. Day 1
As someone who read art of war I can confirm that is 2+2=4
“Timur the Lame” means Timur the Crippled, since he got shot in the leg by an arrow when he was 12. It stunted his legs growth so he basically walked doing the pimp walk but with a cane
There's only 1 thing I know about Romania other than the Dracula stuff and that is they have mad internet speeds like crazy fast better than the UK.

Petition for drew to put the khanate of khiva in the background day 22
IS THAT FISH JENGA?!
Petition for drew to make a Prussian ball
Not only Poles were allowed in Haiti but Germans as well. A group of Germans shipwrecked on the coast of Haiti and since they dispised the French and slavery they were allowed to stay after the revolution.
Here the articles of the first Haitian constitution:
12.
No whiteman of whatever nation he may be, shall put his foot on this territory with the title of master or proprietor, neither shall he in future acquire any property therein.
13.
The preceding article cannot in the smallest degree affect white woman who have been naturalized Haytians by Government, nor does it extend to children already born, or that may be born of the said women. The Germans and Polanders naturalized by government are also comprized in the dispositions of the present article.
Is it just me or is WW1 becoming more popular than ever?
When it said two allies fighting over an island drew I think is meant Canada and Denmark fighting over Hans Island
As a Romanian I can confirm that we do in fact hate vampires
