More Information
1:53 Although in the grand scheme of things Parma had mixed allegiances at that time it was pro church leaning.
2:48 Also the supply lines to the besieging army would be threatened as well.
3:07 He wasn't as much of an Imperial party supporter as he was dissatisfied with the Papal and Bolognese control and governents.
3:40 The English version of Wikipedia.
3:48 To be fare outside of Wikipedia (exceptions apply), you shouldn't be going to any of these pages for source material.
4:56 Also the poem in an of its self had made up some aspects of the war that weren't true.
6:46 All this maneuvering took couple of nights not just one single night.
7:41 Prati di Saletto plateau not Castelletto sorry.
8:49 Even though European infantry war drums are usually seen as a modern era tool they where actually used in battle by the Europeans since the crusades.
10:42 Crespellano, Zola, Samoggia, Anzola, Castelfranco, Piumazzo and the Rhine lock in Casalecchio,
10:44 Locks on the Reno river diverted drinking water to Bologna.
10:49 There are several reasons why the Modenes didn't besiege Bologna and some are still debated to this day. For example Historians are still not sure whether Modena had enough soldiers to even attempt a siege of Bologna on top of that the Modenes supplie lines where already very stretched and it would be hard to have a drawn out siege. Lastly besieging Bologna wouldn't give much direct gains to Modena as they definitely wouldn't be aloud or capable of annexing it.
11:07 It is still debated whether this truly happened or was invented a years later as a funny story/anecdote. However most sources do seem to point towards it actually happening.
12:19 Most of this money was taken by Passerino and Modena it's self didn't see much from it.

#WarOfTheBucket #History #Italy #TrueStory #DumbestBattle
Grew up in Modena, have seen the bucket. Can confirm, its a good bucket. 10/10, would have stolen again
Lmao
This is why we cant have indulgences
I cant even believe this :O i can talk about getting ice out of buckets for 36 hours straight
Oversimplified: hey can I copy your homework
M: sure just give me credit
Oversimplified: ok
This pleased the subscribers, who rewarded them severely
I mean I can't confirm or deny this statement but ...
... kind of yeah :D (great guy to work with)
Severally*
Uncanny Valley no
true story
@@uncannyvalley2350 Nope, he meant severely
-"This, is a bucket."
-"Dear God."
-"There's more..."
-"....No!"
Literally no one:
Every single history youtuber: Did you know that there was a WAR over a bucket?? 😂😂😂
M. Laser I’m sorry. I just watched the video, and I agree you did significantly more research than other CZcamsrs. Still, I believe this subject is over saturated on this website, which is more of a commentary on history youtubers than you specifically. When I saw the title I assumed you were going to be like every other channel and repeat the same facts with minimal commentary or historical opinion. This is a good video.
@@MLaserHistory Better make this video a recommended hyperlink among the topic-covered articles and videos from bamboozled websites and CZcams channels
@M. Laser History I know it's been a few months since I posted this, but I just want to thank and congratulate you for working with OverSimplified to dispel the myth of the War of the Bucket out of the public consciousness. You deserve any fame and growth that is headed your way
Bro, its not even the bucket that caused it, the bucket was taken after the war. So technically, wouldn't it just be the Bologna-Modena Papal-Emperor War?
That and the Emu War.
There should be an option to loot enemy's well bucket in games like EU4
@@MLaserHistory Not before you can afford to build a cathedral to hold it! - and oh, please keep up the good work, looking forward to next video! 👍👍
@@MLaserHistory also, make a decision to humiliate Rival cities by catapulting animals while besieging, that will debuff their morale and bleed their prestige
How about an option to end a war without the enemy being 100% exhausted, all their forts sieged down and completely out of manpower? That's why I like the peace in CK2, despite its simplicity. One big battle and you get like 40% warscore already.
You should be able to steal the bucket in CK2. And then adopt it as your son. And then when you die, you will be playing as the bucket.
@@PiousMoltar That would have been really Incredible XD
A few years ago (must have been around 2015 or earlier) the Mayor of Bologna asked for the bucket to be lent for a history exposition or something like that.
The response from Modena was literally: “Nice try, but no.”
Lol if that's true that is hilariousness.
This channel is so underrated (probably also because of the youtube algorithm). The ammount of research and work and the quality of information are a few times better than many popular history yt channels. Your research is always one step ahead of most channels I know. I really apreciate how you're willing to dig deeper into subjects seemingly well-known like the king Venceslaus carol video or this one. Keep up your great work. If I was earning my own money, I'd definetely become a patron.
I found this channel when oversimplified shouted it out and I’m glad I found it.
Great video M. Laser! I love that you actually went over the general context and significance of this war rather than focusing on the meme aspect of the war like others do. I didn't know the significance of taking a well bucket to basically mock how backward Bologna was - pretty clever imo.
@@MLaserHistory Yes I did! haha Once again, I embarass myself
@WolpertingerNice to see that you enjoy the same quality channels as me!
Oversimplified sent me. Now I shall accomplish nothing today, and binge watch every video here.
I'm here thanks to OverSimplified
Btw, Modena and Bologna still don't like each other. Lol.
Px3ly is that because they liked the Holy Roman Emperor or because they still have your bucket?
@@lazymansload520 I believe it's mostly because they claim their food is better than the other's.
I mean, they are Italian cities.
Px3ly those rat bastards!
Isn't it mad that this version is shorter than the "simplified" version lmao.
@Px3ly anche io sono di Bologna :)
Modena guy : I love you
Bucket : Uhmm Oh Okay
Modena guy : SAY IT BAAAAAAAACCCCCCCCCKKKKKK
That Skyrim ambient music though
actually it's morrowind
Thanks to oversimplified for shouting out your channel. I’m now sub’d.
Came here from Oversimplified. Just wanna say I love your work and have subscribed. I hope to hear from you soon.
Thank you.
Here from Oversimplified great content instant like.
Ok, it’s great that Oversimplified gave you credit, because it’s pretty much the same, at least the second part of the OS video. I was your subscriber since before, but definetely will check your videos more often. Great search for sources! 👏🏻
Yeah, actually it was very nice of him to do so. He could have easily taken my research and just copy it without ever crediting me, which happens more often in this industry then you might think.
Found this video (and channel) thanks to OverSimplified.
Video: Catapulting a live donkey.
Me: Well I have heard stories of dead animals and soldiers being catapulted into enemy cities/forts.
Video: They stole a bucket as propaganda.
Me: Well weirder things have been in propaganda, especially during war.
Video: They camped outside the city walls and had a 3 day celebration for the sole purpose to taunt the enemy.
Me: Hey now, that is just being a dick.
Good to see educational videos trending on CZcams like yours.
P.S. Oversimplified brought me here
I love this channel! totally different than other history channels!
The Morrowind theme song! A fellow man of culture I see.
I noticed it literally after 0.1 seconds
So classy
This explains why did Enzo Ferrari (Modenese) tell Ferrucio Lamborghini (Bolognese) to bugger off and have that rivalry to this day.
Pope: You can't depose me! I am the Pope!
Emperor: Aww... Wait a minute! I am the Emperor: You can't depose me!
*Continues for some time*
I came here for oversimplified.It is nice. I subscribed because I like history a lot. A bucket helped me discover a laser. Thank y'a!!
Just visited the Modela town hall today. It said that some scientific research had been conducted in 2015 and that it had confirmed that the bucket is real. Great video!

In an increasingly crowded utube of guys doing the same subjects.. this is an EXCELLENT take on history
Try the US/Brit "War of the pig" . (canada border war)
Oversimplified sent me here! Just subscribed 😉
Love the lute version of skyrim song in the beginning
This channel got a shoutout from Oversimplified. THERE IS A TAX FOR THAT
I have two sheep and bottle of slivovica.
Would that be enough ?
@@MLaserHistory thats enough i suppose...
Stamp
a real crash course in Simony with that OS plug
Here because of Oversimplified !!
Almost as dumb as the battle of Karabanses!
Somewhere, even before the battle began, I hear something familiar...
Was that a Simutrans soundtrack?
Great Videoo Bro
this youtube channel got alot of subscribers beacuse of oversimplified
Yes it has.
I subbed because of Oversimplified.
I am here because of oversimplified. Underrated channel.
Stable video👍
More medieval italian/german history please...
7:05 classic defeat in detail
Hey m laser may i please use some of your vid: says oversimplified:
Did you have any specific literature, from which were you taking all of this information? I could only find "Lexikon des Mittelalters", and I would be very grateful if anyone could send me more.
Klidně česky, jestli umíte.
Where is the background music from? I swear it's not the first time i hear it
The start is morrwind theme song the rest I can't remember.
Great video but i watch it mostly becouse of you're funny pronounciations of italian names xD (btw i know italian is a very hard language for foreigners)
I wonder how that party was like...
Came here after Oversimplified
Mesopotamian civilization Me too!
I loved oversimplified and when I saw war of the bucket (oversimplified) I acted like king George the 3rd and said what the fu then went to m laser and saw half of all videos and subscribed
elder scrolls music :)
The Elder Scrolls music?
at the start yes
Just to point out a thing what you're calling Volgolo stream is now called Ghiaia stream
Could be. My source called it Volgolo hence that's what I called it but it could be an outdated name for it or something I don't know.
Most definetly this is the case, but since I'm from around there I Just pointed it out
Poor bucket...
cool
True trolling = catapulting donkeys at the enemy🤣
Your pal oversimplified brought me here
Is it true that they actually held a party outside the city? If thats the case could anyone provide me with a source?
Yes, it is true. It's all in the book I mentioned at the end. Sadly that's the only modern source and it's in Italian.
@@MLaserHistory Thanks for responding! Thats hillarius! xD Do you know why the bolognese werent able to break out of the city and defeat the artesian? I guess even a heavily outnumbered and tiered army could beat a drunk army that were busy partying, and been doing so for days?
@@esjb1191 Majority of the Bolognese army wasn't actually in the city. They scattered to the surrounding country side with most of the infantry just going home, which where mostly farms. It was primarily just the cavalry that managed to get back to the city so at that point they had much less numbers than the Modenese. Also, It is definetly safe to assume that the Modenese wouldn't have thrown the party if they knew there was any chance of a counter attack. Lastly, there was internal strife in Bologna after this as dividing factions couldn't decide on what to do next. Appeal to the pope, ask for peace, etc. It would be hard to muster an attack in such a state.
@@MLaserHistory Thanks :)
Here from oversimplified
Why elder scrolls music?
Because it works well with the video.
OverSimplified sent me
Monteveglio is pronounced in Italian: Mon teh veh leeyo

Oversimplified sent me here.
Pew pew pew

Not gonna lie, the true history of the bucket is more interesting than the fake one.
Who’s here Because oversimplified
Went here from oversimplified's War of buckets video. Also i love that skyrim dovhakiin song at the beginning.
Is it just my device or am I the only one who can't here anything
The 11 dislikes are the Holy Roman Empire
in a video on this same subject shown on - Oversimplified- he urges the viewer to check you out, say's your hot and worthy of more subscribers - so here I am - and he is right- you rock -
MOdena, not ModEna.
WELL, hello
Hi.
I will always be pro-Balogne because A) their name is literally Balogne and B) They were pro-church and C) they launched a live donkey over the walls for comedic sake, which I would have absolutely done myself.
So wait, the War of the Bucket WASN'T so stupid?...Good to know
Well, they threw a living donkey over the city walls and a bucket was stolen. It's still pretty stupid.
Put the stress on the first syllable: Mo'dena. That's how Italians say it
Yes the tonic syllable is Mo, but there is a little pause after it so the accentuation is quite subtle. Also he butchered a lot of other names but an awesome video.
you sound like exoghost
oversimplified anyone?
came here from Oversimplified
*OVERSIMPLIFIED FANS INCOMING!!!!*
WHO IS HERE AFTER OVERSIMPLIFIED HIT LIKE
Australia: We declared war on some flightless birds.
Italy: We had a civil war because of a damn bucket.
