"On july 4 Philip delclares independence fron the united states and enters the war against Hezbollah"
And Borussia win 😂
He war crimes
“To The Sea (Sea time)”
All
He in WW2: Extremely talented commander
He in the Cold War: Godlike entity
Dr Manhattan type stuff here
His powers only grew when they stopped him from climbing the Freedom Rock
And a war criminal
HE was surprisingly a bit of a wimp back in world war I
Character development
I love how Him is the only person with a halfway consistent narrative arc throughout these.
He and Comunist Regan
Anti-Semitic Communist Trans Reagan (she/her) also had a pretty neat arc.
@@generalrubbish9513god that title is Just so much
Isn't that a powerpuff girls character?
You forgot about the budda
Its very clear that HE is the Emperor of Mankind
more like HE is the emperor of the whole universe, because he landed on mars, another planet, flew 5660 miles with no airplane and orbited the moon 10 times.

Eh, still sounds like emps to me
@@plasmakitten4261How's that a wooosh?
@@eroth1008 you clearly do not know who the holy God-Emperor of Mankind is! This is HERESY! *BLAM*
I love He lore. Just a misterious figure, that nobody knows is doing some crazy stuff. He is even a bigger gigachad than Gigachad himself.
he’s basically a Demigod at this point…
I wonder if there was ever She or They. Or is He the only one to reach this power?
24:29
It has literally all good writing points of an engimatic character that keeps poeple engaged. We don't know his looks, we don't know how or why HE does all this, but HE is there and He is powerfull. It's similar to G-Man from half life, we don't know how or why but he influences the world around him
@@f.u.m.o.5669SHE's only accomplishment is becoming president of the Philippines
@@f.u.m.o.5669 There is a she
12:57 The part about Khrushchev not being allowed to visit Disneyland is 100% true and it’s quite interesting to read about it.
My favorite part is all the overly literal translations of what Khrushchev said in response. It reads almost like a kid throwing a tantrum because he didn't get to go to Disneyland. Especially on the heels of his reaction to the light teasing from Skouras about the "bury" speech.
@@Merennulli lol 😂😂
and then he went to sea world
@@felixulrich3212 (sea time!)
Ye
I like how *HE* and random football games get mentioned throughout these badly translations videos
Tbh I thought it's funny because 2 times Indonesian my country have been mentioned
@@gianendratirtanegara9257Indonesia is a major regional power in South East Asia so it makes sense they would be mentioned
@@Hamburgerhuman man you take joking stuff to serious I don't even taken it seriously because the shenanigans is so funny, I mean it could've went the difference way but instead it's the same topic
Half wonder if "Him" is just someone playing through the paradox games
Okay, but which one is this? I don’t remember Cold War:Iron curtain being this wack
@@emerald_1160 Hearts of Iron 4 on non-historical focuses
Well there is the canceled game East VS. West. Though you can't recreate in it what was in the video.@@emerald_1160

He is obviously Don Quixote de La Mancha. Who else from Spain could possibly have accomplished so many impossible feats?
u don't know that shush (lol)
And be born 300 years before the two world wars.
El cid? (older than spain tho so technically couldn't be born in it)
@@vaiyt Naah, literary character lives longer than a legendary human being in the flesh.
We, as historians should be thoroughly ashamed of ourselves. Ignoring the significance of He for so long in fear of upsetting the status quo, and possibly in order to stop all history books being reduced to simply concluding, "It was him", just for the sake of marketable historiography.
I'm less confident in my early theories of it being El Cid or Andres Iniesta, I did think it more likely to be a leader of The Syndicalists or The POON from the 1930's, but the new information about the mystical She and her links to The Philippines suggest something earlier in Iberian history.
A colleague has a mad idea linking the finding of elephant bones on Olympus Mons by the Mars Rover to the possibility that it might be Hannibal, but I think He's Barca up the wrong tree.
cmon Mr. Terry we have been over this...we all know that HE is HIM
I'm disappointed. Terry is a HIStory teacher after all.
He's missing out on the Powerpuff part of the lore.
I’m half certain Mr. Terry is *HE*
He needs to make one about WWI, with everything that was leading up to it, its guaranteed to be a massive bowl of word soup
And it might reveal who "He" is
I thought he did but no that was WWII
Prequel lore
@@YourAverageBrody WWI and the Treaty of Versailles had a lot to do with why WWII happened, so he had to cover some of it. But there's a LOT to unpack leading up to WWI
Archie Duke shot an ostrich cause he was hungry
Really visionary for that guy in 1949 to try to control a quarter of the world with computers that wouldn't be invented until 1960.
British Empire Simulator
Khrushchev being unable to visit Disneyland is accurate and it was for a very boring reason: it was feared the crowd would jeopardize his safety and his security could not be guaranteed.
HE just full on ascended from creator of kingdoms in WW2 to a literal god form in the Cold War.
Speaking of bad translations, when President Trump called Haiti a "s-hole-country" circa 2018. A Croatian newspaper translated "s-hole" to "Vukobejina" which means "place where wolves f**k."
Raytheon missile launched from Russia was my favorite.
Especially since Ratheon is a US company that provides the US and their allies with military hardware.
When they said he flew without airplane, it occurred to me that He has to be Superman.
A Spanish superman
@@noktinnkynoktinnky1329 his pod landed in Spain and since the end of Civil War he got mad at Soviets for not doing enough for the Republic to win.
@@elpresidente252😂 new Superman lore
based on some of the other stuff, Goku
"America became the only country in the world"
I wouldn't be surprised if that's how it's actually taught in American schools 😂
Since America is the only country in the world, that would be all schools on Earth. So if you didn't know that... You must be a space alien!!! 😱
@@Merennulli lol nothing makes sense anymore
@@oliversherman2414 Spoken like a space alien. But don't worry, we'll make America the only country in the universe next, bringing our edumacation system to your planet. And that'll learn you!
Clearly a Jovian still fighting the cold war.
@@jasonlescalleet5611lmao 😂
I think I can see what screwed up the translations a couple times. During the Suez Crisis, the leader of Egypt was Gamal Abdul Nasser and the computer started confusing him with NASA. In the time leading up to the Cuban Missile Crisis, the name of the missile system deployed in Italy and Turkey, was the Jupiter IRBM. The computer began to get the planet Jupiter involved instead.
Yeah I thought it must be Nasser.
12:56 - 13:18
Fun fact that ACTUALLY happened, for once it’s not something pulled out of nowhere by the translation. Although he was actually denied entry for security reasons
That's what they told him anyway, Khrushchev was a little weirded out by that since he was fearful of american politicians and their military, not trivial criminals or would be assassinators.
I hope we get more about HE and SHE in the next translation video.
He is presumably still serving time for His crimes against humanity. Assuming there's a prison that can contain Him.
OOOh but maybe SHE will break him out....@@MWSin1
Totally shipping *Her* and *Him.* Imagine the power couple they would make!
She is Ronald Reagan I think
What about **T H E M*
26:20 HE was a former communist considering the fact he lead a Estonian army against the Soviets and then overthrew the Communist government in Grenada
Or he considers the USSR to not be real communists, which could be equally possible
@@Nombre_Nombre_Cuenca HE was literally named the son of the Communist Revolution at one point, but he would’ve betrayed it when he first led the Estonian Army against the Soviets, tried and failed to lead an army into Cambodia, and then prevented Communism from spreading in Grenada
@@anthonyminimum while otherwise I would agree, Soviet is just the Russian word for Council, and it's possible He is a Council Communist which historically opposes Marxism-Leninism
@@Nombre_Nombre_Cuenca ….what??? The Soviets were the literal Marxist party of Russia, while Soviet was Russian for Council, that never meant that the Communists were opposed to the Soviet ideology, the Soviets believed in Marxism, later Marxism-Leninism, as an ideology of the Soviet Union. The official abbreviation for the Soviet Union, USSR, literally means the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, which formed after the Communist Revolution and the Russian Civil War, also, the Spanish Republicans were backed by the Soviet Union, which would ruin the point of being opposed to Soviet communism
@@Nombre_Nombre_Cuenca Another thing, your @ is way too long, it’s creating a glitch in the CZcams app where it confuses the users comment keyboard, crunches it into the corner and mashed together, please shorten you @ it’s creating problems for app users
20:47 if you dont know who paul holm is, its the guy who removed his leg in the WWII translation
Plot twist: Mr. Terry was He all along and was reincarnated without his prior knowledge but these ‘botched’ translations know the truth!
I think a lot of mistranslations come from Asian languages not really using pronouns and just having sentences made up of additional information for whatever was said in the sentence before. Since google translate has to put something there to form proper English sentences however, it might often choose the wrong subject as the topic or just put in a random pronoun, like the famous "he".
I think it's alot more simpler than that. I think it's seeing U.S (As in United states) but being related it loses the dot, becomes US and then ultimately HE.
I love mistranslations there is a redubbed version of star wars revenge of the sith and it replaces, 'Jedi' with 'the catholics'
Definitely a false flag psyop of some kind when "He leads the team to failure" took place.
They never said He led *His own* team to failure.
Maybe he lead them to failure on purpose. Maybe he was against the team's morals and fought by acting on their side then leading them to doom🤔
I started giggling at North Vietnamese in North Vietnam with Vietnamese aid first, and then “British darts” followed by “Pope Mao” got me
It’s awesome how He evolved from a somewhat powerful military figure into an omnipotent demigod
I often hate it when people take videos that are obviously just meant to be funny and then go "actually", but Terry's videos are the exception. I love that he explains the stuff, but he still laughs and goes along with it
Agreed, I feel like he's giving context to the jokes without being all "um akshully 🤓" about it
There actually was a Chinese Soviet war roughly at that time, 69 not 60 I think, but still. Started over an island in the Amur if memory serves, and the general disagreements over the north eastern Chinese border. Not a full on war of course and they tried to rain it in quickly, but I think the casualties were in the 4 digits in the end and the underlying disagreement has not been solved to this day.
And when *he* was needed most, *he* returned
I love how many great alt history scenarios that pops up, McArthur killing the president to fire nukes is one of the best ones
The Alan Shepard one is the only one that isn’t horribly corrupted.
Fitting.
Stalin did do a hunger strike in Berlin of sorts. He just didn't starve himself.
"She" is Corazon Aquino and one of the "He"s is Jorge Rafael Videla.
"Some of you may die, but it's a sacrifice I am willing to make." - Stalin, probably.
"All of you will die unless the West intervenes, but that is a chance that I am willing to take."@@MWSin1
It’s simple he is him.
THE ISLANDS HAVE EYES
At first I was pretty sure "Him" was Patton. The way they said he was in Northern France and in Africa. He also died in the 40s.
But, Idon't really know about that flying and space stuff.
😂
"Add or Add not, there is no multiply" -Yoda... probably 30:25
I love these reactions.Thank you for the reaction and teaching us things at the same time!
There is no "Him" in the traditional sense of the word. "He" is timeless and placeless. *He* resides among every person, and has watched over every event in the history of our world. The rise and fall of empires, the invention of the wheel and the internet, the destruction of the dinosaurs...all of these things had one thing in common. Him.
Who is the HE?
A fine hypothesis you've come up with. Maybe we're digging too deep though? HE might simply be high explosive, which might turn out to be a lot older than we thought previously. Maybe Greek Fire wasn't all that for it's time after all.
Of course we could simply state the usual historian mantra of saying we don't know without sounding too silly.
"He was possibly used for ceremonial purposes."
sounds like the Emperor of Mankind
There's more really good translated history videos of starvharv, one really good one is "exploring Wikipedia's bad translations"
He is the Spanish inquisition that nobody expecta
I am both fearful and surprised by this unexpected news.
BTW, the war between USSR and China happened in reality. It was small few days war for island in the middle of nowhere with around 2000 casualties
Dude I was so baked when I saw the original I couldn't stop laughing for hours 😂😂😂😂
Thank you for giving StarvHarv the attention he deserves.
31:04 America decided to spread freedom to all corners of the globe
NASA developed the Suez canal, so Grance, Israel and Britain attacked it. Since they did so on Egyptian sand, they thus declared war on both USA and Egypt.
22:10 But the anglo-saxons conquered Britain after the Romans left.
Btw, I think HE is Kratos from GoW (not to be mistaken for Kratos from Greek myth)
Please look at LITERALLY ANYTHING from Overly Sarcastic Productions! They make learning history, literature, architecture, and myths absolutely amazing!
Pope Mao hade me dying of laughter
Ukraine: dissolves USSR
USA: THE WHOLE WORLD IS MINE!
These videos are golden!
27:50 What actually happened in April 22th of 1985 was the "Juicio a las Juntas" which was a trial against the military Junta that ruled Argentina between 1976 and 1983 that committed several crimes against humanity towards any leftist-suspected civilian (and even started the Falklands/Malvinas war).
Maybe He was any of these lesders or a subordinate of any of them...
We know that He does not really operate under any singular country or ideal. If he thinks he can do it, then he will do it.
NASA connected to Suez must be actually Gamel Nassar, the Egyptian leader at the time. Also, the first female president of the Philippines 'She' would be, I guess, Corazon Aquino, the widow of Benigno Aquino?
At this point, He should just be the god king from warhammer 40k
ALL HAIL THE GOD-EMPEROR OF MANKIND
BURN THR HERETICS
I'm watching this at my overnight job to pass the time. I work in an RTF unit for kids. I have to stop myself from laughing and it hurts. 😂
I really do wonder if the war should have continued but against the USSR right away. The USSR would eventually get nukes, but the scale of nuclear weapons at the time were tiny compared to modern ones. Would have been better to have a nuclear war then rather then now.
I'm of the opinion that the mysterious *Him* is actually the Emperor of Mankind from WH40K.
I’m so happy you watch these it’s so funny
Woohoo! Another Mr.Terry-StarvHarv combo!
The joy on your face when the video mentioned Him again!!
Which side would Jupiter be on? Well, considering the Jovian j̶u̶n̶t̶a̶ Republic is essentially an Orwellian autocracy, I'd say they would be something like China.
(The Jovian Republic is from the transhumanist tabletop RPG Eclipse Phase, which was in turn inspired by the Takeshi Kovacs novels.)
I don't think Jupiter's on either side. They seem like they'd just sit on the siddlines causing chaos
@@ebnertra0004definitely in character for the mythological Jupiter.
1:51 - You meant Roosevelt.
Anti-semitic transgender communist Ronald Reagan is not something I was expecting...
He was born in Ciudad Real in Spain, at an early age he exhibited signs of superhuman power. At the age of 10 he was as strong as a 30 year old man, and was measured at an IQ of 400, the highest ever score, but it was covered up French officials who wanted to uphold the view that France was superior to Spain. He showed a keen interest in politics at an early age, and at the age of 15 he had mastered marxist theory and wrote a communist manifesto of his own. Fearing a revolution, spanish officials issued an arrest warrant and made him wanted throughout Spain. Not knowing what to do, his parents sent him to live with an uncle in Germany.
While there He continued his path in politics, making contacts with communist supporters, some of which would prove instrumental in later successes. After the failde 1905 revolution in Russia, He was contacted by Vladimir Lenin, who had found him through a mutual contact in Germany. It wasnt until the outbreak of WW1 however when He was forcibly drafte to the German army and sent to the eastern fron, that they came in contact. He decided to desert the army, and fled to Russia, being aided by communist sympathizers. In Russia He climbed the ranks and soon found himself one of the top leaders of the revolutionaries. In fact, he was the main influence and strategist for the 1917 communist revolution, having influenced and persuaded Lenin, earning him the nickname, "the youngets son of the revolution". This involvement was later buried and covered up by Stalin. After the death of Lenin, He found himself at odds with the communist parties, not agreeing with the policies of Stalin, and furious for not getting the recognision and credit he deserved for his involvement in the revolution, Stalin had covered as he feared He would become the head of the communist party. After the Soviet invasion of Poland, He found himself ousted from the communist party and exiled after having publically expressed his opposition to the plan. Feeling that he had been betrayed by fellow revolutionaries who didnt support him, but not being able to bring himself to join an armed fight againts the Soviets, He defected to the UK who after witnessing his superhuman strength and power sent him to the war. His time in the British Isles however had changed him, He no longer wanted for the Soviet Union, not daring to return to Spain, he instead joined the many brits travelling overseas to the United States.
It was in the States that He reached the full extent of his power, joining Nasa in 1950, after discovering he could fly. He was made a spy and sent all over the world to gather intelligence and carry out operations behind enemy lines. While doing so He also became more adept at flying, culminating in his journey to Mars and Jupiter after the Planetary Communist Confederacy of Jupiter had declared their support for the Soviets in order to fulfill their goal, a united communist Milky Way. After He had carried out operations, Jupiter was left no more than an empty wasteland. Of course this was all covered up by the United States in order to not reveal their most valuable asset.
Why would the US not reveal the Valuable asset.
They legit annexed the entire world Lmao I think it needs to be revealed at some point
The HE timeline
Man, Warhammer 40K Lore about the early millenia of the immortal God-Emperor of Mankind (before he revealed himself) sure has become _weird._
Never before have I heard someone responding with "Who won?" in reference to the outcome of a terrorist attack.
1:25 Stalin had just quit smoking, and the allies were afraid of his withdrawal symptoms
Glory to America, the only country in the world!
I've just watched your reaction video to the ruined World War II, and I found this quite entertaining! The translator separated Douglas from MacArthur ("the liberation of Russia and its allies" sounds good!), made Reagan a communist (and an anti-Semite?!), and reintroduced HIM to the story!
Thanks for the video!
i waiting for this video
Didn't think Mr.Terry would know Borussia Dortmund
I believe the Kruschev speech thing was talking about his "Cult of Personality" speech about Stalin
I think "Hezbollah" is a bungling of the rebels the Philippines were dealing with in Huk? Some software gave up at "Hukbalahap" and said "eh, close enough."
20:22 The Canadian-Soviet Summit Series! 1972!! One of the proudest Canadian moments, as a Canadian!
16:27 there's also that manhole cover that literally went TO OUTER SPACE
18:50 I'm pretty sure that silhouette is Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Let's be honest: "He" is the biggest troll and superman of the Cold War.
Right after it got to the computer based government part I immediately got an ad for a pc building company
The google translator got a little bit too patriotic
1:52 ‘Truman dies because of complications from polio’
Wait what
I wish you were my history teacher bro ❤😢
10:12 Crisis in Sweden
24:53 Wojciech Chasky called for the abolition of the right to live
Harry St Louis was my Favourite VP, I believe he is him
Honestly these videos are too funny
Im imagining alien whales with octopus arms on jupiter launching interplanetary missiles from one of their moons.
HE is like a god who just does whatever whenever because he wants to 😂
22:10 the Romans, the French, the Norse, the Germans, the Dutch (technically). Need I go on?
I blame HIM for the ending.
He= Spanish Inquisition ("NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION"). She= Two girls,one cup (metaphysical extinction).
19:14
Fun fact: Poland has its model of camouflage for its armed forces (saint model 93 "Panther") and not something else, because Gaddafi rejected the pattern and well, to cut costs when distancing ourselves from communism and horrible camouflage fit only for urban enviroments we used the same pattern, changed the colors to fit our woodlands and implemented it.
Jupiter would certainly be on the USSR side of the cold war...I mean, the red flag is so big you can see it from earth!
I hope the next one is the war on terror
Mr Terry, as a fellow educator, I have to ask-- have you ever said anything "CZcams-ish" to one of your in-person classes? Something like asking your students to "leave a comment" when asking for discussion or answers?
5:00 Man completely spaced out during the context and confused Romania for Italy.
32:16 "Make sure HE is getting the views" - So StarvHarv was the infamous HE all along.
👋 Mr. Terry, I’ve got a question. What do you think is the most likely way that the Cold War could have escalated to nuclear conflict? Also do you think it is possible that the “defenders” would choose not to retaliate for any reason?
If He wasn't arrested then the cold war would have escalated
Ukraine dissolved the soviet union followed by america is the only country in the world had me crackin
I love how HE becomes progressively stronger
It's HIM! HE'S back!
actually i only think maybe wales would celebrate independence day from rome bcs when western roman empire fell the anglo saxons invaded england when england was just britons the welsh are now britons nad hte anglo saxons invaded and england is there now and wales are the remaining britons i think
