- We're in the 1812 endgame now. The Brits burn Washington, a national anthem is inspired, and Andrew Jackson scores a garbage time touchdown in New Orleans. Let's see how the War of 1812 ended and what impacted it had on those involved.

Who do you think won the war? What topic should I do next?
Obviously America. Otherwise we’d be Britain’s bitch still, like Canada.
Neither it was kinda a tie
@@trentthehehim3936 canada is not britain's bitch.
A tie for the Americans is kinda a win and real losers are the natives.
Yeah, it's all downhill from there if it wasn't already.
I recall John Green in a crash course video saying something like "Neither Britain nor USA won the war but the natives definitely lost"
He was right then and he's still right now.
As usual.
I mean yeah they kinda did
I kinda feel the US won more. There’s so much effort to poo-poo on the country, but the US “won more” for the same reason we can acknowledge the Amerindians lost. The US gained enormous tracts of land. Jackson got like 23 million acres in the Treaty of Fort Jackson alone. The Old Northwest was pacified. The Amerindians loss was the gain of the US
Andrew Jackson may have hated a lot of things, but at least he loved his dear wife Rachel.
And duels.
you know who wlse loved his dear wife rachel? MY MOM!
Now instead of him in Captain America garb, I'm picturing him in Batman Begins, driving Katie Holmes to the batcave screaming "RACHEL"!
108
Jackson had 108 duels
im sobbing
poor Rachel
6:02 Ah, the flag is still there. As well as... other things
I didn't see nothing. I was looking at the flag.
@@DrawnofHistory me too ... *me tooo*
Damn...I saw it...
The amount of funny memes in one vid is insane lol
What can I say? I got jokes. Glad you liked them.
@@DrawnofHistory The funniest of them of them all was probably the "wat the f***" one lol.
Hope you can make another vid soon. love your vids, but I hate waiting. What can I say, I'm not that patient.
Just for a frame of reference. This one probably took around 150-200 hours so...
@@DrawnofHistory Fair enough :) Gotta love the effort tho.
This channel uses "All Star" like it's the early 2000's... and I'm all for it.
I love these videos. So freaking funny. "13, get your hand off my ass." 😂
Honestly, Jackson won. Not America, just Jackson. His victory at New Orleans would propel him to the Whitehouse and, for better or worse, he'd become one of the most influential presidents in American history.
You're not wrong.
@@DrawnofHistory Thanks! Love your content btw, Mr. Terry brought me to it.
I've only known of this channel's existence for about two hours and it's already becoming one of my favorites. If there was ever a channel that deserves some traction/CZcams algorithm love this is it. Keep it up Drawn of History! With quality content like this you're bound to succeed.
I take it you're from Mr Terry. Best thing you can do is share it around. Thanks for the kind words.
@@DrawnofHistory yep me too
@@DrawnofHistoryjust now finding you and I hope so hard you’re still creating
i love how you used so many memes in this video
This series was SO good! I'm so glad I discovered this channel! Well done, old chap!
This truly was America’s dummest war
America's dumbest war so far.
An epic and hilarious conclusion. Just found your channel through this series and subbed. Can’t wait for more!!
Awesome. Glad to have you aboard.
One of my favorite channels. So glad this video finally came out!
I'd like to thank my outrageously long Spring Break for making this possible.
Very entertaining! Great work, looking forward to the next one!
Me too. Now I just have to do it.
Videos like this are how history should be taught in school
It's how I try to teach it, with cleaned up language of course.
Maybe a good format but the angle of attack is always anti- US/13. That part really sucks on all these "Drawn" videos. I see that stupid stuff enough from daily news casts. You know : "The US is bad, stoopid, it sucks, always aggressive and taking, blah,blah,blah"! Enough of that shit, there is NO balance.
@@theebrainfixer I was referring to the format, but I get what you're saying about the anti US stuff.
This is the best channel that I've seen in years. Great work Sailor!
No problem shipmate.
imagine never loosing a war in history -Canada
They would be a bit of a lucky rabbit's foot.
Canada was part of the Allied intervention in the Russian Civil War. Canada sent soldiers and fought in the war. They were part of the losing side, which means they are not undefeated.
@@electricpizza5774 shh we do not talk about that
Canada were also in Afghanistan
@@electricpizza5774They were volunteers though if I remember. Canada themselves never actually declared war.
Welp this is my new favorite history channel.
Thanks, hope to have the next one out in about a month
I love the «four shadows» running joke 😂
I do feel «Admiral Cockburn» was a missed opportunity..!
But the cute and wholesome ending gag more than makes up for it!
Wow, that was just amazing. I am so happy I found this channel, please keep up the awesome work!
This war will be a source of debate for decades if not centuries to come. Nice video.
This is my favorite history You Tube series ever. Thank you!
Mr terry brought me here and may I say you do tremendous work keep it up these videos were amazing and very funny
Terry is awesome. Glad to have you here.
This is so funny! I found you through Anton's channel and subscribed. I love history and animation so I think I'm in the right place. 😅
Anton?
@@DrawnofHistory Anton Wong videos did a shoutout for you in his newest video. That's how I found your channel 🙂
Awesome. Thanks for letting me know
Hey guys , ive been waiting for this for so long
It's here. Spread it around.
@@DrawnofHistory sure but ill keep social studies as my favorite subject :)
Great video! Looking forward to more. Hate the wait... 😆!
I'm a one man show on this channel. Plus, I have a real job. Who needs sleep anyway?
@@DrawnofHistory well your doing a damn good job and hope you get so successful that you can afford help. Amazing your doing all this alone and working. Bravo!
Great video. I would add though that few to no people outside the US consider the war a draw. Britians aim in the war was to prevent Canada being conquered. Americas aim was to subjugate Canada. At the end of the war Canada was still under British control.
Sounds like a British victory to me.
True, US failed it's war goals pretty badly and considering how poorly defended Canada was in 1812 and with the Brits busy against France it was not very impressive.
US one big victory didn't happen until the war really was over, not counting those cities in Canada they burnt in 1813 of course but that was rather pointless and considering that the army that did that got beaten by a handful Canadians dressed up as Indians I wouldn't say that they were very effective there either.
DC actually had enough defenders to keep the British out but they just fled due to poor morale.
So yeah, US lost but it was a minor loss since they didn't loose any land even if the debacle certainly was very expensive in money and men.
Same thing with the English victory, England didn't really gain anything but they didn't really send even a fraction of what they could since they basically been in war for 20 years and had no intention of getting bogged down in another major war. If England really had sent half their military things would have ended very poorly for the Americans but it would just been another British headache.
The Native Americans were the ones who had a major loss.
I agree, even speaking as an American, there's no way to spin this war as anything but a big "L" for the US of A. At least, you'd think, I mean your logic seems 100% correct to me, namely the side that started the war and fails to achieve it's war aims is the loser and the side that prevented the initiator from achieving its aims is the winner.
However, I hear so, so many times that the Korean war was a draw for some reason, and all I will say is this, if the Korean war was somehow not a U.S./U.N. victory, then England doesn't get to claim it won the war of 1812 either. Fair is fair.
@@Magic_M_Hayashi The Korean war is a bit tough but I think the South and their allies won since the Norths objective was to take over the entire peninsula.
The problem of course is that the war officially isn't over, no armistice was ever signed, technically is there just a temporary cease fire that have lasted 70 years and I think that is what people are referring to.
But you are right, US was on the winning side there. North Korea invaded with the plans to conquer everything and South Korea is still there, arguing that US lost both war makes no logical sense.
US never really claimed it was a war at all but a "police action" and the war was pretty filled with bad decisions from both sides. The whole thing ended in a trench war that you only can see something similar during the Great war, in fact it is pretty hard to tell which is which on many photos.
Both these wars are a bit confusing, in the first Britain won by small margins, on the second the Allies won by the same small margin but in both cases the borders after the wars was close to identical to before it started but with a lot of casualties.
So both wars were pretty pointless.
1. The war continued until the treaty was ratified in Feb 1815. Ratification is very important as the signed treaty is meaningless without it. The British failed to ratify an 1815 draft treaty known as the “Treaty of Nicholls’ Outpost.” It was signed by the Red Stick Creeks and other native tribes to defend them from potential invasion (via British protection) of the United States. This treaty made the natives British subjects as they raised the Union Jack under the Florida territory in post-War of 1812. It didn't stop the United States from hunting down the Colonial Marines, Red Stick Creeks, Seminoles, and even native-allied British supporters in Florida.
2. The United States officially voted against annexation of The Canadas (i.e. "Canada" did not exist) in July 1812. The United States govermment could only agree to go to war over impressment. Impressment ended on it's own with the defeat of Napoleon, so it was a war goal that resolved itself.
3. The British instigated the war with the impressment of (even if by mistake) Americans. Impressment is just another form of kidnapping civilians.
4. The United States had control over Lake Erie and (exceedingly minimal) part of Ontario which was a factor in changing the terms from uti possidetis to status quo ante bellum. The United States exploited those "status quo ante bellum" terms in every angle.
5. The British lost all of their allies. For example:
Tecumseh’s Confederacy? Defeated.
Red Stick Creeks? Defeated.
Spanish Florida? Territory was claimed.
Federalists? Permanently discredited and some completely driven out of their occupations (notably a sheriff in Maine involved in smuggling for the British)
6. The British were no longer allowed to trade with the Natives. It forced them to deal with a (rather adverserial) foe with the United States in trade.
7. The British failed in their offensive aims. For example:
- Indian Buffer State was clearly dropped and risked the end to negotiations if this hadn't been done.
- New Ireland was totally abandoned and the Federalists whom associated with the British were fed to the wolves. The British could not financially afford to assist the few Federalists who did wish to secede.
- Avoidance of bringing up a separate article over the legality of the Louisiana Purchase. They raised the point of it being illegal in negotiations and immediately dropped it when they couldn't get what they wanted. The British even considered doing with Louisiana as to what the United States did with the Upper Canada (i.e. "incite the local citizens") with the same results. There was even territory claimed by the United States from their ally Spain.
As of reading this commentary, there was no "L" in this war for the United States. I've perceive it as a draw, but some historians have a fair case towards a victory for the United States.
Drawed against Britain and decisively destroyed the Indian Confederacy. And the Impressment issue was over. Also a victory against Spain where Mobile was conquered and set up for the fall of the rest of Florida.
Brits intercepted Bonaparte's love letters to Josephine during his Egypt campaign. They published them in their papers to make fun of him. Perhaps they planned the same thing with the sitting US President's love letters.
Those weren't love letters those were letters where Napoleon was scolding his wife for having affairs with other men. If it was just some love letter of a husband to his wife the letters wouldn't have a "make fun about it" value to publish in the newspapers.
@@masterplokoon8803 you are right.
Great series!
Mate absolutely top top entertainment and interesting history all in one sweet package of animated fun. Brilliant channel.
Maybe you should make a few shorts of easy things to fill the gaps between your bigger great videos. It's just apparently the CZcams algorithm pays a lot of attention to the amount of videos on a channel and how often they upload. That along with the watch time are supposed to be the most important things to do to get noticed and help your amazing channel reach all the people who need to see it. By designing a quick and easy way to to make a few 2 minute videos is apparently really effective. Say quick takes on a moment olin history tied to the big video you made last or will be making. Try doing it like a podcast with a predrawn set up that you use of a character telling the story with just a few extra scenes and jokes.. 🤔 Hope you grow as big as you deserve.
Love Mr. Terry being in there! Great vid!
Next topic should be the Texas Revolution
Yeah, it was fun fitting him in. Texas seems to be a popular request.
@@DrawnofHistory
The Civil War would be cool eventually.
Well done, I don't really have much else to say but I want to leave a comment to (hopefully?) help with the algorithm!
this is definitely the funniest history channel i watch, I enjoyed watching all your videos
Oversimplified: finally, a worthy opponent
@@Jameswebbtelescope7484 yes
This is awesome
This is brilliant
Ha, the admiral Cockburn (and his family)'s name mentioned at 1:14 is actually pronounced "Koh-Burn".
You've got a new subscriber, by the way! I'm looking forward to seeing more. 🙂
Only cause they are still embarassed by needing that specific jar of burn salve...
If you write a CK you need to pronounce a CK. That's them rules. Anything else is Gaelic insanity!
and yes that means grunting is no longer acceptable as transvocalisation for Wor-cess-turr-shi-ree sauce. If you don't need the letters, put them back in the box. Anything on the paper will be pronounced, damnit!
@@Ugly_German_Truths In Malvern (Wustersheer) we were always amused by American tourists asking the way to "Here ford", meaning Herrifud.
I'm in Western Australia and Perth has a suburb named Cockburn, from which a very prominent vehicle hire company is based, Cockburn Hire.
@@StonedDragons How are you pronouncing that?
amazing video, you are hilarious
We do occasionally get tornados in Washington DC. It's nothing like what they get in the Midwest but we do get a few each summer in the DMV.
Splendid!
this is the best video's ever in the war of 1812
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed
Whats even sadder is that most U.S citizens only know the short version of the Star-Spangled Banner. The full version that was written goes as follows;
O say can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming, Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight O'er the ramparts we watch'd were so gallantly streaming? And the rocket's red glare, the bomb bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there,
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore dimly seen through the mists of the deep Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes, What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep, As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses? Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam, In full glory reflected now shines in the stream,
'Tis the star-spangled banner - O long may it wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore,
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion
A home and a Country should leave us no more?
Their blood has wash'd out their foul footstep's pollution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave, And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
O thus be it ever when freemen shall stand
Between their lov'd home and the war's desolation!
Blest with vict'ry and peace may the heav'n rescued land Praise the power that hath made and preserv'd us a nation! Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto - "In God is our trust,"
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
Nice videos. I even subscribed a couple months ago!
Glad to have you aboard. You have the earned the title of OG DoH subscriber.
Amazing.
Canada: Thirteen??
USA: Yeah??
Canada: Get your hand off my ass
.....i died
Came from Mr. T!!
Glad to have you
Love the name, beardie. That guy was a legend.
I am a 90s kid God bless you sir for the “Fire of God” reference🙌🏿. EARNED A SUB!
Hey, I mean we did at least hand a defeat to one of the battle-hardened British armies from the Napoleonic Wars at New Orleans, right? That Indiana Jones reference I liked though. Just rediscovered your channel through the algorithm after turning off my CZcams search history for quite a while...
Glad to have you back aboard
So, the strangest tale from the Battle of New Orleans that I wish was talked about was how when the Americans retrieved the body of General Pakenham, they had it pickled and returned to England in a cask of rum so he could be given a proper burial at home.
@@joshlavene622
Didn’t the French do the same thing with John Paul Jones and gave him back to the USA?
he’s often called the founder of are Navy, crazy guy.
The US naval victories probably stung the most since that's what Britain was most proud of.
Good shit men
Between the war of independence and the war of 1812, it's really impressive how proud some can be of having fought against someone else who was fighting with two hands tied behind their back, at the posterior of the contemptorary world. Much like bragging about the Barbary Coast, claiming European powers didn't have the "guts" to do something about the piracy. Erm, no, they just had other issues higher on their priority list. Like a war that had engulfed much of Europe but was also being fought overseas in kind of a WW 0.1
It's like when you hold your own against an older sibling that really had no interest in fighting you anyway.
6:40 this is amazing 😂
4:13 this made me laugh
I mean really, secession? Who'd be dumb enough to try that?
@@DrawnofHistory yeah
@@DrawnofHistory yeah it would start a civil war with a lot of deaths good thing that never happened
Real history is much more intersting than the pablum I was taught in high school.
George "what the fuck is a kilometer" Washington would have shed a single manly tear had he lived to see this clusterfuck.
Nice drawing the faces
The final segment with America dancing with Cana is funny but it would be better if Gran Colombia, Quito and The Federal Republic of Central America was there 😢
I've never had such a greater time in my life's history, learning the truth about his-tory would leave me resorting back to roll-ups or admitting to depends...lol!!!
From now on the national anthem will only be sung to Allstar
Needs more subs
Share this around then
Provinces? Is that metric for states? lol that is great
Thanks, since the series opened with US and Canada, I thought it fitting to end with them.
Mr Terry brought me here!
I want a make America British again tshirt!
Not that that is something to be proud of in 2023 either... ;P
I miss when a lettuce was your prime Minister.
"13?" "Yes, Canada" "Get your hand off my ass" - I think I hurt something laughing so hard thank you!
This channel should have millions of views, like the other animated history channels.
did anybody get the nick cage joke... man i feel old
You forgot the Battle of St Lenoard or North Point or the British fight with the Bristish in the Patuxent.
I love history
So do I. We have so much in common.
What app do you use to make your videos? (I know I heard you mention it at some point but I don't remember whether that was here or on the other channel and, obviously, I don't remember which one you said it was)
At 2:55 , Wouldn't it have been better to write 'Make America Great Britain again' ? ^^
Had to work within the confines of the acronym
Yo, my 10th and 11th grade history teachers in this!!! Awesome video my good sir!!!
Mr.T?
@@DrawnofHistory yep
Hears SummoningSalt theme playing towards end, was expecting a history of the War of 1812 speed runners
I think that was the first place I heard Home's "We're finally landing"
10:50, canda should've said get your hand off my yukon.
He even got the boss music.
Young Andrew Jackson travelled from Charlotte NC to Knoxville TN a dozen times.
...and the Cherokees tried to end him every time.
Incredible ending
Could have been worse Thomas lord Cochrane la Loup de mer creator of the idea of commando raids was almost sent to the American station. This was a man who took a 32 gun frigate with a 14 gun sloop terrorised the Spanish and French,sailed into port with solid gold candlesticks from a Spanish treasure ship on his mastheads,a man who led the Chilean,Bolivian,Brazilian and Greek fleets in their wars of independence and as a 70 year old was considered too terrifying too unleash on the Russians in the Crimean war
Just wondering and this is just a weird question but in your intro we’re the ship is being blown up at 0:30 is that the uss Maine exploding?
It is. It's from an earlier video I made on the Spanish American War on a different channel.
I'm here cuz of vlogging through history.. but I'm glad I found it too.
When is the next vedio coming out
I lost it at 2:55
It was really weird to work on this in the wake of what happened in January. Had to take my shots at it all.
What’s that song at 9:58?
Please post more
Working on it as we speak
3:00 you didn't go with "Some Postman" ?
Who told you Canada is proud of Nickleback?
Fun fact the War of 1812 was a draw.
I will commend your restraint at using “Genocide of natives...” though something tells me you probably deleted it from the first draft...
In some good news, in 2023, Ben and Jerrys returned the land that that they stole from the Native Americans to build their HQ and factory on.
To see the R34 of the ending dance just look at any map
Where r those music vids my SS teacher can’t handle the withdrawal
They're on the other channel
