  1. “I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts, and beer.” ― Abraham Lincoln

  6. Defeat has only fired Bolívar's lust for revenge against the Spanish - and freedom at any cost. But his conviction threatens to lead him astray.

  7. 5:30 I waited all series long for Catherine to make her entrance. Because, as an ardent Extra History Watcher, I remember the series you did on her and also how Fritz was already kicking Europe around when she was a child. Very satisfying to see how everything comes together.

  8. I'm both a gamer and a history nerd, so I watched both types of videos, but I guess I am a vend outlier (inlier?). Subscribing to two channels is easy peasy though, so I'm excited that you're excited and can't wait to see where you go with it.

  9. Emigration was the right word.

  10. Korolev is one of the most overlooked characters of history of space exploration. Everyone remembers Gagarin but barely anyone even knows of the incredible life of Korolev that contained everything from a prison camp to putting the first human in space. Rest in Peace Korolev ❤!

  11. Frederick II goes on crusade and wins land The Pope : You weren't supposed to do that
    605
  12. Yes, the title is sort of right. The Regency Period here is basicly remembered as a time of instability and anarchy.
    604
  13. A new Scott video, this is like the Extra Credits version of Christmas.
    604
  14. I love that you Mentioned Prester John that’s not a story that many people know about
    603
  15. Ethiopian history is a fascinating subject not covered much by schools and historical channels alike, and I am quite glad that your channel has decided to be one to cover it. Keep up the great work!

  16. I've read somewhere that Kara Mustafa Pasha tried to rally his men with the holy banner and had to be dragged away by his men. It would make sense, since the man REALLY wanted to capture Vienna, for the sake of his adopted family name. Also, Kara Mustafa didn't get executed for failing at Vienna, but for failing to hold Ottoman lands (Which I guess is the result of losing most of his men at Vienna). I think the important distinction is that the Sultan could probably stomach the failed attempt at conquering Vienna, but not the humiliation of losing territory under his reign.

  17. E ANDIAMOOO! As an italian, im so happy you covered such an important figure in italian culture!

  18. I'm sure there already have been comments metioning it buuut... You have used the wrong staff. No worries, It's very common to do so, even among doctors and other medical jobs. What you have is a Cadceus, the staff of Hermes, a symbol of alchemy, astrology, trade and wisdom in general. While it's an ok symbol you are probably meant to use the Staff of Asclepius, god of medicine. This one has only a single serpent and no wings. Cheers!

  19. Didn’t expect Cthulhu in an extra history video

  20. nothing better than a rainy day with hot coffee and new extra history episode

  21. You forgot the part where Legolas jumped defied physics but running across a bridge of falling debris. The most important part of the book.

  22. “Ah you Dutch think tulips are your mania? You merely adopted the fad. I was born in it, molded by it!" ---Ottoman tulip enjoyer to Dutch tulip fan, maybe

  23. Extra mythology deserves more videos. This series is so good.

  24. I'll admit, I was immediately nervous when I heard that you guys were going to attempt a political miniseries, given how tense that environment has been for the past couple years. However, this was a really reassuring start, and it's nice to see a dissection of the system without getting caught up in the modern day controversy constantly swirling around in just about every other form of media. The more informed voters are about the inner machinations of the US political system and various political strategies, the better.

  26. What a legendary opening scene. EH animation really has come a long way
    595
  27. Well, Occitan isn't a dialect of French. It's a completely different language, more closely related to Catalan than to French.

  28. 2:13 Don’t run in high heels. XD

  29. I've never seen Miller's chart, so I won't speculate on what he missed. But I know one thing that Snow missed for sure: “But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.” Matthew 24:36, a direct quote from Jesus about the second coming that should have warned him not to make predictions about the exact day.

  31. A few months ago I heard a story about scientists who were trying to develop a method for diabetics to make their own insulin at home instead of paying the outrageous price of buying insulin. Hopefully they will be successful and we can add another great advancement to medical history.

  32. If you look closely, you can tell that the one on the left is being dubbed. Dan clearly does not have a human body and this is all an elaborate ruse by the Cartoon Mafia.

  33. Love the opening, and how you are bringing games and mythology together in this episode
    589
  34. Oh god, who allowed James to go back to his sci fi craze?! We are doomed to great content at a reasonable pace!

  35. There's a lot to this story that really speaks to the time, and there's a whole bunch you probably had to cut down for time. One part of it is the lawyer for Harris and Blanck, Max Steuer, who was one of those lawyers everyone knew and feared at the time. One of the big reasons they got off the charges was because the witness the prosecution used didn't speak english very well (because she was an immigrant) and the DA thought that Steuer wouldn't press her too hard for fear of looking like a bully going after a young girl. Steuer's response was to instead ask the witness, Kate Alterman, to repeat her story again, and then again, and then again. The coaching she had gone through because of her poor english sounded more like she had been coached with a false story due to the repetition of specific phrases, which threw just enough doubt on the eyewitness testimony that there was no preponderance of evidence and the jury acquitted. He managed to tear down her story while doing nothing more than calmly and politely asking for clarification and repetition of the testimony. After the verdict, one of the jurors made a statement about why: "I believed that the door was locked at the time of the fire, but we couldn't find them guilty unless we believed they knew the door was locked." It's not important to the overall story of the historical importance of the labor movement, but it is a nice little keyhole insight into how the justice system works and how sometimes those cases you think are slam dunks turn out to not be the case. Also, I hope that it might help some people realize that as good as these videos are, you should use them as a springboard to do further research on your own. History is not a series of events. It's a weave of millions of things converging, and there will always be more to learn about an event than you think there is. It's always worth taking the extra time to dig more into something, you'll be amazed at what you can learn.

  36. Speaking of those female pubkeepers … in mediaeval English, the suffix -ster was the feminine equivalent of -er and was used to form names of women's professions. So the surname Brewster is derived from a female ancestor who brewed beer. (Similarly, Baxter was the feminine equivalent of Baker.)

  37. Here is a lesson: Don't be afraid of rich and powerful groups, fight for justices and common senses.

  38. sees title alone You brave crazy madlads. My condolenscense you subjected your sanity to such drivel that drove otherwise good men to madness and insanity. "To FIGHT the fanatic, we must first UNDERSTAND the fanatic"

  39. "he had a plan" - I am having so many Bismarck flashbacks right now.
    582
  40. Guys, you have got to look up "March across the belts." It is honestly one of the coolest stories that came as a consequence of the Little Ice Age. Due to it being colder, a swedish army was capable of marching across the ice of the baltic with cannons, wagons, horses and all for 16 DAYS. From island to island, all the way to Copenhagen. The peace treaty giving the last puzzle pieces for that of which is now today Sweden's modern borders.

  41. I feel like staring a firestorm in the comments today. So who would win, Walpole or Bismarck? (I leave the details up to you.)

  42. The doctor giving radiation treatment looks suspiciously like Vault Boy from Fallout. Coincidence?
    579
  43. Cool, so all I have to do is keep saying it'll be "tomorrow" every single day, and I can delay the apocalypse for at least the rest of my life? Neat! Having the power to bully God is rad af!
    579
  44. I love these stories from mythologies that aren't main stream. We need more stories about African, pre-colonisation American, and Asian mythologies! It's so refreshing and new to see something that isn't Greek, Norse or Roman
    576
  45. Is so rare that Hypatia gets mentioned. I think the last time I heard about her was Carl Sagan in original cosmos. She has always fascinated me as a historical figure. It’s a shame so much of what she wrote and taught was lost to a Christian mob
    576
  46. Bloody Mary? Isn’t that the alcoholic beverage?
    576
  47. This is one of the greatest series ever made. It sparked my interest in Chinese history and I find myself going back and watching it time and time again. Extra history truly made a masterpiece. Thank you guys for this and keep up the great work
    574
  48. I can scarcely believe how good these episodes are. The only "information" channel I can think of that may rival this one would be Kurzgesagt (you two should totally do an episode together)
    574
  49. Edsel deserved better. Fathers like Henry ford don't want their children to exceed them, they want them to be just as horrible as they are. It is very likely that the stomach cancer Edsel got, was been caused by the sheer level of stress Henry caused his son.
