Managed to mispronounce words in every language. Seriously dents his authority. I mean, a lot of elementary school English gets mispronounced. I'm embarrassed for the narrator.
During the War of Quadruple alliance, Spain went 1v4 against Austria, France, Britain, and the Netherlands. Spain took less casualties and lost no land.
In my travels through the vast Spanish empire, I have been amazed at how Spaniards treat Indians, like others, even forming mestizo families and creating hospitals and universities for them. I have met indigenous and even military mayors and bishops, which means in the social peace, well-being and general happiness that we already wanted for us in the territories that with so much effort, we are taking them away.
Great video - succinct summary on an extremely broad topic! This really helped me as I’m getting into Spanish history. I’m half Filipino and obviously part Spanish. I’m either 1/8 or 1/16… not a whole whole lot but it’s enough for me to want to learn. More people should be aware of Spanish history, as most of us are linked to it…
The spanish army wasnt really defeated by the napoleonic one. They conquered spain when the king let them in to conquer portugal, but napoleon decided to take spain aswell, betraying them and breaking the deal.The napoleonic army was far superior but still spain managed to win the war thanks to guerrilla warfare and brittish supoort.
*Fun fact:* The Spanish took part in the French invasion of southern Vietnam, known as the "Cochinchina campaign", during which time came to being the old-timey Spanish schoolroom saying: *«Dos y dos son cuatro en Lima y en la Conchinchina.»* (Two and two make four in Lima and in Cochinchina). This was why the *Spanish-speaking world* once figuratively considered *Vietnam at "the end of the world"* because it was both farther than China and *exactly the opposite side of the world from Peru.* Even today, *"Cochinchina" to a Spanish-speaker* is like saying *"Timbuktu" to an English-speaker.*
Harry Truman was a voracious reader but reading doesn't tell you how to say stuff, and he was just as famous for saying stuff in weird ways. In a time where dictionary definitions are being re-written on a nearly daily clip to satisfy leftists control of the language, pronunciations really takes a back seat to the concept they hold.
@@grapesurgeon What room? You didn't point to anything I said that was in error after being invited to, ,probably because what I said is verifiable. That's not opinion, that's called facts. I am not salty. I am asking questions and not getting answers. instead being told that I am salty, being political (whatever that means - seriously, whatever that means) and to read a room (what room?). One might consider those personal attacks against someone who just pointed out the facts of the situation. I will take facts over personal attacks any day.
All pronunciation errors aside, this is an excellent and comprehensive summary of Spain and exactly the info I was interested in! There is enough information in this video to provide deep dive off points for further study of Spain and her history. Thanks for the excellent content! Lik'd and Sub'd
Britain itself wasnt apart of spain but due the fact that the queen of england was catholic and had married the emperor of the holy roman empire and the spanish empire, it became a habsburg monarchy until elizabeth coming into power when they turned into the house of tudor, which meant the protestant church came back into england and the catholics were forced out.
thank you. you taught me something. i'd like to add the tidbit that the famous painting "the bombing of guernica" was of the nazi luftwaffe bombing to help franco's forces during the civil war. it made sure it didn't bomb the unceta y cia factory allowing unceta to sell pistols to the nationalists, which he favored over the euskadi separatists to whom he had been selling prior to this. the company later sold pistols of 9mm largo,9mm parabellum and .380 acp to the nazis during ww2.
Pronunciation could really use some work, cringed hard a few times with the way the narrator butchered some names/words. Makes me suspect this is just someone reading a script and didn’t put in the actual work to gain the sufficient knowledge.
He must've encountered too many words and names that he didn't know: I'm willing to bet that not too many North Americans even know what "abdicated" means, which was why he misread it. He should honestly reedit everything, and try to post this video again.
@@Suite_annamite Oh North Americans know abdicated very well. It's in near every princess story and stories of intrigue. That covers both boys and girls stories.

Wow, that part about Francisco Franco - the dictator's role in making modern Spain what it is- a great country and amazing tourism hub was mind blowing🇪🇦.
This is NOT a good explanation. You cannot start with the Roman times and go into modern time just skipping the whole huge period of reconquista. That is an extremely important long period of time. Also misspelling Barcelona is just unforgivable.
Correction: Portugal was the first global empire, Portuguese empire started in 1415. When Spain discovered America Portugal already had a lot o colonies in Africa.
Correction: Portugal did not have territories in Oceania. It only controlled the route to Asia around Africa. It was not a Global empire. It had nothing between the coasts of Brazil and the Moluccas, more than half the world. Portugal began the Age of Discoveries, but already in the 16th century it was clearly surpassed by Spain.
I really really like this video but there's a glaring issue with narration! I mean I think the narrator was mainly chosen because of his sound quality as being young and relatable to young audiences. I understand why that is the case. All right why are these words in English pronounced so oddly? Peninsula abdicated abrogated Okay so I don't know if the person narrating is also the person who created this video but I mean there's so many mispronunciations in English much more French Italian and Spanish! Surely you can find someone who can narrate and actually know how to pronounce these words. I'm not trying to be mean but you know this is an educational video and I'm sorry to say this but the mispronunciation sounds so ignorant. It really doesn't sell a video at all as educated. I have to say that it's more than just the narrator it's the editor who allowed this to be published like that!
How is this video so highly ranked? The comments must be from bots and the pronunciations are hilariously wrong. Nevermined major historic events that were simply glossed over or ignored.
Spain is a leader in organ harvesting and transplanting? 😅 What a weird example to point to when trying to illustrate that Spain is an advanced economy. You could have chosen the textile, agriculture, or tile industries-but organ harvesting came first to mind? 😅
Some errors on the video since the Portuguese were the 1st global empire, not the spanish, and the spanish route trough africa into India also did not happen as the spanish had to go through the pacific to the philippines in order to avoid the portuguese on the sea and possible losses in battle for both sides
Skipped right thru how Hebrews settled the lberian peninsula. Never mentioned how the city of Barcelona is named for the family of Hannibal Barca the "so called" black, great general who gave everyone he faced hell.
explained way to fast but done its very best in the time it was given was always wondered where portugal fit it i may said that and id missed it because of it quick telling of spain
Excuse me but the great economic growth of Spain didnt happen with the adoption of the euro but in Franco's time, that is to say, during the 60s and 70s. The adoption of the Euro was a bad issue for Spain, since the euro only favoured Germany and some useless countries of the North.
Too much to cover in this amount of time. This was name, date, and location history, with little analysis or context. You need to go into more depth to understand anything here.
The pronunciation of names is atrocious. Al-Andalus was mangled. I mean, no one, NO ONE would know what he's talking about if they said it like he does. Very sad considering this is supposed to be an educational video.
Horrific pronunciations were a real turn-off. With all the tools available on the internet to help you pronounce words, I am amazed you would make this video without using even one. Mispronouncing even English words makes the whole effort sound, well, uneducated.
The history was good but the pronunciations are cringe-worthy. Please come to Spain, clearly for your first time, and learn how the words are pronounced.
This is a good video considering you are summing up the history of one of the most fascinating countries in the world in less than 10 minutes.
The pronunciation is just, wow. Don’t quit your day job.

Spain conquered the Philippines 1521-1899 🇪🇸🇵🇭
Spain form Philippines, before there were only tribes fighting among themselves, Spain united the islands
History makes us feel stronger, i love Spain's history
The French did not sucessfully invade Portugal.They attempted 3 times and were always repelled by Portuguese and British troops.

Skipped the coolest parts of Spanish history. Luckily the second half of the vid was better. 5/10
what are those?
I like that this shows no opinion just the truth in a summary
Those are some interesting pronunciations you chose. Did you come up with them yourself?

This is the comment I was looking for. I knew it couldn't be right when Britain was highlighted as being under Spanish Hapsburg rule. ty
18th century was second golden age for spain
I liked this video ❤
Thank you for making it
I wish he featured the Iberian travel from the caucus mountains
This is a brilliant production!!
Ilove spain. I can feel it in my blood lol. Im filipino btw and you know the rest from there.
Omg why this channel so good

wtf wdym Morocco gained independence in 1967 😂 they gained independence in 1956
Damn, as a bilingual Spaniard, I wish I'd come across this video before my final high school exams...

Suggestion: work on your pronunciation of some of these words. Even the English version of these Spanish words were...interesting
This was very informative, though my students fought over how many seconds it actually was.
