  2. I'm 15 seconds into this video, and I'm already hooked. Here's why 1) He gets right in. No "click the bell subscribe blah blah." He doesn't waste our time. He doesn't even introduce himself. He figures (correctly) that if we like how he teaches, we'll take the time to figure out who he is: 2) He uses no overt political jargon that gives away his political bent. He clearly wants to teach, not indoctrinate. He delves right into his topic and doesn't do some useless "in this video, I'll cover. . " Yes, well, if we like the video, we'll find out what he covers, won't we? So he simply starts teaching. This is the hallmark of a confident teacher who actually has something to say. 3) His backdrop. It is interesting enough to be engaging, but not distracting. He uses the Art-Deco theme of the era he's covering (as well as his clothing) to demonstrate that he knows a little bit about what he's talking about. 4) He's speaking diction and speed are spot-on: Not too fast so we can't follow, but not so slow that we start looking at our watches. OK, so, really, I have no idea if I agree with his points, or his outlook, but if he was a prof. at college, I'd fight to be able to petition his classes.

  3. As a Ukrainian and a long time fan since ‘The Great War’ series I have to say thank you for doing this. Many people forget about this horrific act, and try to outlook the crimes Soviet government have committed. You are doing the God’s work with your videos on such events that hopefully will not be forgotten in the future and that those events never become reality again. Thank you, and good luck with your projects!

  5. My grandfather was in the Greek Army that invaded Anatolia in 1922 and was part of the chaotic retreat. He witnessed crimes from both sides, and regretted the death and destruction far more than he did Greece's defeat.

  6. In my humble opinion, this is the best episode in the ''Between 2 Wars'' series. I am seriously amazed by the fact that you managed to get this very complex and controversial (might not be the right word) into a video, with full political and social neutrality. And that is why I love your series so much!

  7. "Our entire body of work depends on that we can tell the truth without fear of being shut up, put in prison, or even killed." Brilliantly put Spartacus. That's what democracy is to the historian. Democracy means something different for each person, but it makes life richer for us all. May Ukraine's democracy be preserved, and her people saved.

  8. - Did you ever hear the tragedy of Anton Drexler The Wise? - No... - I thought not. It's not a story the KPD would tell you. It's a Nazi legend. Anton Drexler was a Dark Lord of the Nazis, so powerful and so wise he could use the hyperinflation to influence the voters to create a political party… He had such a knowledge of the nazi side, he could even keep the ones he cared about away from communists. - He could actually save people from communism? - The nazi side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. - What happened to him? - He became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice sidelined him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from political annihilation, but not himself. - Is it possible to learn this power? - Not from a Communist...

  9. Explaining facism is probably one of the most difficult and controversial topics to cover. You nailed it. I love being educated by your video's.

  10. It's no wonder Stalin loved Westerns, because he basically ran an outlaw gang similar to those of the old west who robbed banks in his younger days. Must have reminded him of the quote on quote "good times".

  11. Little known fact: Conrad von Hotzendorf's remains are interred in that porcelain pagoda behind Indy.

  12. In short: making sense of Eastern Europe in the 20th century is like untangling Christmas lights.

  13. i would like to request all of Winston's speaches redone in Indy parody
    625
  14. I wish there was a love button. This one took balls. Good on you guys. I for one am proud of you for staying true to the telling of history.
    624
  15. Things I've learned so far: TimeGhost team has a beef with Paris. Indy has some serious issues from his childhood he's working through. Hang in there, pirate! Indy was once involved in a shady game of Battleship. Indy once hosted a party that didn't go as he planned. Oh, and also we came shockingly close to nuclear war.

  16. This is university level quality, with cited sources, backstories, and no bias. All for free.

  17. I hate to be the generic indonesian commenter here, but i want to express my sincere gratitude on you for covering this topic (which is very rarely done by youtube channels like you). As an indonesian student, we study our fight for independence to no end, presumably to strengthen our nationalism. However, I had no way of telling the accuracy of the things they teach us at school as you can tell that they overglorify our side of history and we rarely hear of the hideous things that happened on our part. So once again, thank you for providing a new perspective on the independence of my nation!

  18. This is possibly the nerdiest thing I've ever seen and I love it

  19. Indy being our Sex Ed teacher. I am not sure how to feel about that.

  20. Hitlers rise to power is talker about soo much but i have heard barely anything Mussolinis rise to power. One of the reaosns i love this series is that it covers the event's between the world wars with all the great research and presenting that is top quality as always.

  21. I'm totally against corruption, but the president of United States asked me to his drinking parties in White House in the 1920s, I might make an exception.
    558
  22. You guys dealed with this subject in the most unbiased way possible. All your videos about conflict shows the naked horrors of war without prejudice or bias. This is not an easy task, but you guys always amaze me.
    554
  23. Indy looking sharp as ever, and that set is gorgeous.
    548
  24. Glad you started the episode on a positive note
    522
  25. I love how Indy's look has become progressively more stressed and disheveled over the course of this series.

  26. Wine is the fuel of the team!

  28. You guys are going above and beyond on this Indonesian War of Independence, the quality is superb, congrats.

  29. There's nothing like a good underdog that makes for an amazing story and Poland's victory over the Soviet Bear is second to none! Now I understand why the Soviet occupation of Eastern Poland was so brutal....it was revenge for the humiliating defeat of 1920! Thank you so much Indy and Spartacus for creating this amazing series! It's a shame that the interwar years, especially the Soviet wars in Eastern Europe have essentially been glossed over in most narratives of the world wars. So a brief, easy to follow, and well detailed summary such as this really helps complete the picture!

  30. Kakistocracy.

  31. Who knew Indy was a piano God as well as a rap one
    433
  32. This an absolute monster of an episode, 20 minutes long!, and each and every second is exciting as the next. Between 2 Wars is back and everyone is better off because of it!

  33. Indy: This was the closest mankind ever came to extinction! Me: Aw look at the liddle kitty!

  42. I love how Indy is getting more am more disheveled as the crisis goes on day by day, honestly Astrid you are a treasure, the set of this series is phenomenal, can't wait to see how you redesign the set, honestly Sparty, Indy and Astrid are just perfect together, and Anna is also great, the whole TimeGhost team is amazing and I hope you all feel as fulfilled making this as I made watching this.

    383
  44. Glad to see this episode Indy, very happy you’re not holding back to anything. Just the cold, factual, painful truth.

  50. An excerpt from the memoirs of a Greek soldier, Christos Karagiannis, in 1919, concerning the battles for Aydin. During the first days of the Greek landing, Aydin was taken and retaken many times by the Greek Army and Turkish irregulars, and each time the “rival” civilian population suffered. The source is "The Vanquished: Why the First World War Failed to End" of Robert Gerwarth: “We enveloped the city and as we drew closer, we heard louder and louder the screamings and the clangs from rilfes and grenades. It was hell. The (turkish) regular army was retreating, but the Turkish irregulars remained and slaughtered, plundered, tortured Greeks and Armenians, gathered the females for their harems. […] In a Greek neighbourhood we found entire families slaughtered in their houses, along with their children. Greek flags were torn apart and trampled. We found in few Greeks killed that the flag poles were fixed into their arses (sic). And the wells were full of corpses. And then the reprisals were initiated: The mosques were burned, the beards of the hodjas were burned, impalements took place, soldiers of ours unclothed the men and shot at their arses […] A local Greek priest holded a large dagger and slaughtered every Turk he found. The Turks killed his wife and one of his daughters […] he didn’t spare even dogs […]”
