  48. As we wrap up this short series, I wanted to take a moment to talk about the Dakota Access Pipeline which threatens the sacred ground (and treaty land) of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe. The US Army Corps of Engineers issued permits for a private company to build this pipeline without consulting the tribe, and the tribe has stepped up to oppose this decision both in court and through ongoing protests on the construction site. Many of the First Nations, including many among the Haudenosaunee, have voiced their support for the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe. The United States once again stands at a precipice of history: whether they will stop and listen to the indigenous people who have held this land in their care for generations, or whether they will continue to put current interests ahead of treaties signed and laws passed to protect America's environment and heritage. If you enjoyed this series, then I urge you to carry that appreciation forward to learn about the Dakota Access Pipeline and listen directly to the voices of native communities about this and many other issues they face today. History does not only lie behind us.

  73. [Long Post Ahead] Hi everyone! I’m Rob Rath, lead writer for Hunting the Bismarck. Because sponsored episodes don’t have a LIES episode, the EH crew decided the best thing would be for me to write them here in the comments. EPISODE I: THE PRIDE OF GERMANY • BRITISH PERSPECTIVE: After discussing possible approaches, we chose to tell the story from the British perspective as an hour-by-hour intelligence thriller. This approach had a few big advantages: it was tense, had a propulsive narrative, and allowed us to focus on the British intelligence effort that’s usually glossed over in other documentaries. It also let us communicate the “fog of war” and show how little the British often knew. The downside, though, is it gives short shrift to the Germans—but my hope is that the Bismarck’s side of this story is already well known to most naval history fans. • WASN’T YAMATO THE BIGGEST?: Yes, the Yamato’s displacement was larger—but it was still under construction when Bismarck sank. Yamato had already been “launched,” but that merely meant that its hull was floating in the water with its superstructure and armaments still under construction. Only after being “commissioned” into active service did it count as a real battleship. • CANADIAN SUPPLY CONVOYS: Several people pointed out that the Royal Canadian Navy and Merchant Marines played a large role in the Atlantic convoys. This is absolutely true, and I wish we had depicted that. As a form of apology, let me offer this: did you know that four Canadian midshipmen served at the Battle of the Denmark Strait? One served on the Prince of Wales, while three died on the HMS Hood. The Hood crew also included 20 men from Newfoundland, which was not (yet) a part of Canada. EPISODE II: THE MIGHTY HMS HOOD • WHY WAS PRINZ EUGEN OUT AHEAD?: It actually wasn’t a strategy. When Bismarck fired at the cruiser Norfolk in Episode I, the concussion of its own guns knocked out its radar array. Prinz Eugen was going first to act as a radar picket. • DID ALL THAT STUFF IN THE BATTLE REALLY HAPPEN?: Many people thought we took artistic license, but the events in this episode are based on the accounts of veterans and Hood survivors. One caveat: much like the circumstances of Hood’s sinking, there’s significant debate over whether Hood’s B-turret fired one last salvo. Both British and German sailors reported seeing the shot, but that doesn’t necessarily mean someone intentionally fired the guns. It’s possible that ammunition cooked off in the barrel, or that an internal explosion made it appear the guns fired. • DIDN’T MYTHBUSTERS PROVE SHIP SUCTION IS A MYTH?: Mythbusters used a 20-foot boat, which doesn’t reflect the fluid dynamics of a sinking battleship. A large ship going down very fast can experience “downflooding,” where water pours into the large spaces in the hull and ventilation shafts, pulling floating objects down like a drain. In addition, air escaping from the ship creates bubbles and foam at the surface, making the water less dense and able to support bodies. Oil and entangling debris also contribute to dragging sailors down—all three Hood survivors described being pulled down in some way. EPISODE III: A CHANCE TO STRIKE • WHY DID THE BRITISH KEEP ATTACKING ALLIES?: During most combat operations, ships tried to maintain radio silence so that listening stations on land didn’t triangulate their signal and inform enemy vessels of their position. This meant a ship’s location wasn’t always clear, and it was hard for pilots to recognize the size and silhouette of a ship when hurtling at it from several miles out. Mistakes were common. • TIME TRAVELING SHIPS AND ENIGMA ROTORS: We accidentally depicted some ships with post-war modernizations like angled flight decks. We also used the destroyer HMS Sheffield (D80)—which the Argentine Navy famously sunk during the Falklands War—instead of the cruiser HMS Sheffield (C24). Also, we misstated the number of rotors on the Enigma: the standard version had three and the naval version had four. EPISODE IV: SINKING THE BISMARCK • WASN’T THE BISMARCK SCUTTLED?: Yes. The crew set scuttling charges, partially because regulations mandated that they be set before an evacuation could take place. But Bismarck was already foundering and most assessments agree that she would’ve sunk within a day or half a day—so really the British sank her, the scuttling just sped it up. • WHY DID THE ROYAL NAVY KEEP SHOOTING?: According to naval procedure, Tovey couldn’t stop firing until Bismarck struck her colors, which she never did. The feelings about this were very mixed among the British sailors. The HMS Rodney’s chaplain really did beg his captain to stop the shelling. • WAS THERE REALLY A U-BOAT?: The lookout on the Dorsetshire spotted U-74, which had come to pick up Bismarck’s war diary at the request of Admiral Lütjens. U-74 later rescued three men clinging to a raft. WALPOLE In 1732, King George II gifted Walpole the residence at 10 Downing Street, where Winston Churchill lived and worked during WWII. Too easy? Ok! The Prinz Eugen was named after Prince Eugene of Savoy, an Italian-French general who served the Austrian Habsburgs. In 1731, Eugene was responsible for hammering out the Second Treaty of Vienna, which reoriented European politics by breaking Britain away from its ally France and instead aligning it with Austria. Who steered this on the British side? WALPOLE.

  101. As Ireland reeled toward famine, in London, Sir Charles Trevelyan was retooling his relief plan to be less generous. Trevelyan saw this potato blight not as a disaster, but a God-sent opportunity to remake Irish society. And he was determined to make the most of it--no matter how much suffering he had to inflict. http://bit.ly/EHPatreon

  102. It’s 1887. Physics is almost complete. We almost know enough to see the clockwork of the universe. Only one last great question remains: how does light travel?
    987
  103. The conversation here is great! I'm glad issues of imperialism and the way it turns people against each other is being discussed! My aim here was to point out the other side of that as well, which is that no empire in history, be it the Roman, the Mongol or the British, is solely the work of the people who get to name it. They are often the ones we write about when we write history but that overlooks the contribution and sacrifice (willing or unwilling) of so many, whose efforts are essential to these vast entities. -JP

  104. Well dang our scheduler hiccuped, so enjoy an early Extra History haha!

  106. By October 25th, the vaccine is ready. Express trains rush deliveries to the West Coast to protect troops and shipbuilders there. They’d made enough to vaccinate the entire US Army and its civilian employees... but only enough for the army.
    966
  107. Prime Minister Robert Peel was in a tough position--once the potato blight reached Ireland, he knew he had to do something, without undercutting the grain market and upsetting either the Tories or the Whigs. So naturally, he sent an agent to Boston, on a mission to buy £100,000 worth of cornmeal and quietly ship it to Ireland... http://bit.ly/EHPatreon

  118. Yes, it is! The tradition of burying your weapons before peace talks carried down for the Haudenosaunee through the ages, so when Europeans met them (and held peace talks with them), it became memorialized in English as well through that phrase.

  123. Oof, watching this video made my jaw hurt... What's the craziest superstition or story around dental hygiene that you've heard of? (I'm a big fan of George Washington's insane variety of fake chompers personally) Edit: Whoa, y'all really like the gross stuff huh? That's awesome, but we want to clarify: the bit between Rob and Matt is a joke Rob himself wrote for a couple of reasons. First and foremost, dental phobias are incredibly common and we wanted to make sure we didn't squick out anyone unnecessarily. Two, because dental medicine stagnated for a while during the Medieval era, the joke let us bridge ancient dentistry to more modern dentistry smoothly. Three, we didn't actually remove all that much detail from the procedures and tried to leave in enough that the bold of heart and strong of stomach and could go searching themselves, if they wanted to. But for those who want it, here's the elaboration from Rob: ROMAN CIRCULAR SAW: Basically, they'd trephine the infected tooth open, then pack it with arsenic killing the nerve. RED-HOT POKER: This was Celsus. When a gum ulcer did not respond to vinegar and chewing unripe pears and apples (?) he recommended cauterizing it with a red-hot iron (?!). AS A MOUTHWASH?: Romans believed urine was a great mouthwash, especially the urine of young boys. Apparently, kids would make money by hanging out in alleys with cups for this purpose. (Oh, the glory that was Rome!) ST. APPOLONIA: We covered it in the episode. Depending on the story a mob/Roman soldiers pulled out her teeth before her martyrdom. And that's really it. Next week's episode is much more straightforward.

  155. (Comment from Belinda) I don't know if anyone else has had this experience with Jane Austen's works, but in the educational culture I grew up in, the historical context of Austen's writing was almost never emphasized. Pride & Prejudice in particular is frequently reduced to being the original formula for romantic comedies (to say nothing of its own spin-off movies of the same name). I remember in high school class it seemed really weird to me that we would be talking about this 19th century novel as a progressive feminist work because it's already a given in the 21st century world that marrying for love is extremely commonplace. I'm really proud of our writers Jac and Rob, and our artist Ali, for bringing to life the "extra History" of Jane Austen that gets glossed over by popular culture. <3

  188. Hey everyone!  James Portnow here.  I write the series.  At the end of each full topic I'm going to do a live on camera episode called "Lies" where we talk about all the lies we told you and the mistakes we made.  Here at the beginning I'm not always getting to see the finalized versions before they go out, so there's bound to be some errors (I noticed a fair share of minor but non-negligible errors in this when I saw it this morning ; ).  Also, if there's a story like the sandwich that probably isn't actually 100% accurate but has enough of the truth that I've heard it told by professors at major universities and makes for fantastic storytelling, I'm going to use it, but then talk about it in the "Lies" segment at the end.

  220. Pachacuti turned out to be a good name for this ninth ruler of the Inca. Because while the name did mean “earth-shaker” it was also a philosophical concept. In Quechua, the Inca’s primary language, a pachacuti was a historic event, a cataclysm that overturns space and time, remaking the world. It was a good title for the man who would forge the Kingdom of Cusco into an empire. http://bit.ly/EHPatreon

  225. "We started out with a single voice singing the original melody from the Oxyrhynchus Hymn--the oldest Christian song with both lyrics and musical notation. Other voices join him singing in unison, but slowly start to wander into their own melodies. As the song progresses the melodies become wildly different and the middle eastern instruments are eventually replaced by more modern instruments. At the end, the original hymn endures, but is colored by the multitude of other melodies surrounding it. These wandering melodies are appropriated by a giant church organ to be brought into line for a single, unified harmony." -Kiner Brothers Music

  229. Hi everyone. I want to talk real quick about the "Russian-ness" of this episode. A few weeks ago I posted about this in our Patreon but I think it's important so I'll mention it here too (and it'll be a lot of the Myth's Matters episode): When I stumbled upon the Nart myths I thought they were really important to cover because they were suppressed by the Soviet government and with the on going conflicts in the Caucuses are a cultural heritage that is endangered. I asked the Patrons if they would mind if I used one of the Russian episodes that they voted on to tell these stories because with the platform we have we need to push against that sort of suppression. Unfortunately Patreon only allows us 20 categories for myths and we don't have a North Caucus one, so the way the title got pulled it was listed as "Russian". I'm sorry for that. It's a problem that we have that I have to think through with our system for most indigenous culture that were later supplanted or marginalized. For right now I'm going to see if someone on the team can edit it, but again apologies, all I can say is that I hope it caused a few people who would otherwise never have heard these tales because of state suppression stumble on them in the meantime. -JP

She was a stray who was taken in by the program to test the Sputnik 2 and some of its life support features (like a coolant fan). Unfortunately, Laika did not return from her mission alive but she's still regarded highly in the history of space flight and has become a symbol for the space race and animal testing in general. Look her up!

  264. Launching June 4, Extra Politics is an 8-episode mini-series (weekly on Mondays) exploring the United States political system from a game design perspective. In this series, we skip past policy and get to the core rules that govern the US political system, everything from running for office to moving legislation forward.

Whether you want to be a more informed voter, a more engaged citizen, or are even considering running for office yourself, level up your political literacy with Extra Politics this summer! Extra Politics is created by guest writer Luke Peterschmidt (@LPeterschmidt), guest artist Joe Maslov (@super_jogurt), and narrator Daniel Floyd (@DanFloydPlus). Thanks for watching!

  266. For those of you up on your South American history, you probably noticed San Martin is woefully absent from this episode; if you don't know about him and you dig Bolivar's story I'd recommend looking him up. I plan to mention this in Lies, but basically I originally had him in there but it ended up becoming 8 episodes long with two episodes where Bolivar basically didn't even show up ; _(. So, being a series on Bolivar, we looked at everything and decided San Martin's story would be better for another series or for a couple of one offs when we get a few shorter topics. -JP

  267. So what's next for Extra History now that Admiral Yi's story is done?

  269. We love sending you out to research things on your own, but in this case, we actually meant to tell you what happened in the Siege of Szigetvár after Suleiman died and didn't wind up doing it in Lies. So we'll do it here! The day after Suleiman died, the battle was won. His death was kept a secret until his body could be returned to Istanbul, to ensure that power transferred safely to Selim II. Fun side note, though! To preserve the body, Suleiman's organs were removed and buried where he died. A mausoleum was then constructed on top of them, and it became a site of pilgrimage until it was destroyed in the 1680s. Historian Norbert Pap of the Hungarian University of Pécs just uncovered the remains of what we believe to be that mausoleum in December 2015, and excavation (which will hopefully confirm it!) began in April 2016. Yes, that means the excavation is going on right now!

  277. There are many different versions of how and why Tadodaho became a good leader, so there's definitely room for different interpretations on that series of events. (I went with the story of Jigonsaseh's confrontation because I felt it was generally underrepresented, due to Haudenosaunee women's stories being neglected even in what limited written accounts Europeans and early Native scholars made of the history. There's a bit of historiography in my decision there too buuut... I won't go into that.) All of the histories agree, though, that Tadodaho was once an extremely violent person who became a very good leader dedicated to upholding the Great Law of Peace. We certainly know that he existed (through the records of their constitution, which mention him by name, and the government representatives who have held his name as a title for centuries) and there's more than enough oral histories about his change of heart regarding the Great Law of Peace to constitute good evidence that he did undergo some kind of personal reform.

  300. We now realize that we ran the wrong flag up the flagpole in this episode. Twice near the start (:17 seconds and :27 second in to be precise) we displayed the Union Flag, which as you know represents the union of Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and England. However we were talking about just England, and so it should have been the flag of St George. We're sorry about the mixup and we'll look out for this in the future.

But since spell check is insisting that Herakles is not a real word, we decided to still title the episode Hercules, the Roman (and much more popular) spelling.

  319. It's awesome to see the questions about barter coming up. I'm planning on talking about this in Lies, but how goods exchange worked before commodity currency is...contentious. And it doesn't help that Adam Smith sort of made up "Barter" since he comes with all sorts of baggage in the academic world. From what I've read, basically "gift exchange with haggling" seems like the most like origin point for exchange of goods, but that whole debate is waaaaay more than I had time to get into here. To give you another preview of Lies...when we get to the last episode you'll probably notice that this series ends right before the point in time where we'd be talking about the idea of the petrol-dollar...which is hugely important in the ongoing argument about whether we have a true "fiat" currency...and so also going to be covered in lies ; ) -JP
    384
  320. Earth Abides revolves around humankind nearly being wiped out not by atomics, but by plague. It brings in to sci-fi the post-war question of whether an ever increasing human population is truly sustainable. But perhaps more important to the history of sci-fi, it’ll ask a question that is almost a cliché in science fiction today, but was nearly unexplored at the time: the question of how you rebuild after a collapse.
    383
  321. Vikings ventured further inland beyond the coasts of Europe, at first attacking Constantinople as they had everywhere else--but eventually settling into trade agreements and settling among Slavs and steppe nomads, their descendants forming a new kingdom. http://bit.ly/EHPatreon

  322. I mean, they did, they just named him Ezio Auditore. In my opinion. ;D
    379
  323. Don't worry everyone, it's not a time warp, just a reupload episode with fixed art! Mistakenly whitewashing Genly Ai was the result of a few miscommunications in our pipeline, and we've taken steps to lessen the chance something like this happening again. Thank you to everyone who caught the error. We greatly appreciate it, especially the folks who drew our attention to the essay Ursula herself wrote about whitewashing (you can find that essay here: https://slate.com/culture/2004/12/ursula-k-le-guin-on-the-tv-earthsea.html ) PS, while the Gethenians are described as Le Guin as Inuit or Tibetain, we kept them as multicolored aliens to help distinguish them from Ai in our simple art style and to emphasize how different Ai feels in the novel, and how strange the civilization comes across to him.

  333. +Krisna Siv (kastle09) Would you believe they actually nerfed Turtle Ships (relative to RL) in AoE2? They made them slow and took away all of their broadside cannons, because otherwise they'd have been ridiculously overpowered compared to the other ships in the game. -Soraya

  385. You're in luck! The patreons voted for him last weekend, and he'll be getting a series in fall of 2017. That said, there are lots of amazing stories from all around the world that deserve to be covered on Extra History - as just one example, we haven't yet discussed the history of the Indian subcontinent at all. History is rich and varied, and we're excited to cover as much of it as we can, so the absence of one particular person, region, or event is not a snub but a reflection of how wide the range of wonderful world history there is to discuss.

  389. While this is true, Empress Elizabeth was in fact staying in Moscow at the time that Sophia went to meet her for the first time. Several of my sources confirmed that Sophia's exact route was Riga to St Petersburg to Moscow, because she was trying to catch up with the court. In Moscow, Empress Elizabeth was staying in the Annenhof Palace (and she made my life difficult by changing its name to the Golovinsky Palace literally five days after meeting Catherine - I had a heck of a time verifying the name of the place!). That palace burned down in the 1900s so I couldn't find a picture, so we modified our Winter Palace design to approximate it. -Soraya
    289
  390. One more myth I forgot to clear up! You may have come across the story that Justinian put out Belisarius' eyes and left him as a beggar at the gates of Constantinople. Everything I've read said this is almost certainly a myth that was invented in the middle ages. Should have got that one into the episode... -JP
    288
  391. You get the feeling - especially next episode - that Bolívar felt like he had been forced into decisions that seemed pragmatic for him, that even his own ideals balked at. I'm not sure he was entirely right about how necessary those decisions were, but I can sympathize somewhat with his fear that (without hand-picking a successor) the state he'd worked so hard to liberate would simply fall under the thumb of another tyrant. That said, the irony of him using tyrannical means to ensure that continued freedom is pretty darn strong. -Soraya
    288
  392. Inspired by his own experience being part of the bombing campaign that leveled the ancient monastery of Monte Cassino during World War 2. and the fear of nuclear annihilation that gripped America during the Cold War, Walter M. Miller Jr. imagined the world in a brand new dark age, ushered in by the hubris of humankind--in the only novel he ever published.

  396. There's a thread on the Patreon page with folks gleefully sharing tales of using their notes from those banks and getting dumbfounded looks from people. Seems to be in active use, at least among us trollish geeks! Also, my favorite right now is the Danish bank that bought one of the Northern Irish banks, along with its right to print legal currency, so that (as RMS phrased it) "we have legal Sterling Tender that proudly says Danske on it."

  437. Bradbury called himself a preventer of futures, not a predictor of them. This whole section of short stories, the Human Cycle, is meant as a cautionary tale, an exploration of how not to be.

  440. “If our lives be short let our fame be great!” The legends of the Nart people still echo across the Caucasus, but that echo is getting fainter, so to honor that cry from long ago, it’s only fitting that we tell one of their tales today. We’ll start with an old one, perhaps one of the first to be told. The tale of a golden tree. http://bit.ly/EMPatreon

  460. +BlooOcean We had a discussion about that during editing. Ultimately, we decided to call it Seoul in this series because that's the name more people would recognize. We want to give people as many anchors as possible to realize that this history we're talking about isn't dry, distant facts about places they've never heard of, but vibrant memories that matter dearly to places they know today - like Seoul. -Soraya

  523. We’ll get into this story and why I decided to omit it in LIES, but the short version is that many historians believe that this “first” meeting with Charles (where she picked him out of the crowd) was actually preceded by a private meeting, and this event was a bit of political theatre constructed to boost Joan’s legitimacy. Sadly describing all the possible scenarios surrounding that event would’ve taken a lot of time without adding much to the episode. We’ll also discuss the bit about her finding an ancient sword in the church of Saint Catherine, which I left out for similar reasons. - Rob

  534. No Lies for this one - it's a one-off! But the story told at the beginning there is one of the versions circulated about how Samuel HaNagid became vizier (and is, in fact, the one Wikipedia tells). Obviously, I felt the other version (written by a descendant of Badis) seemed more plausible, but this is one those times in history when different accounts tell conflicting stories, so you have to use your own discretion about which one you believe! -Soraya

  549. One of the most persistent and enduring images in science fiction is that of the long slow waters of the canals of Mars. But... they don't actually exist. Where did they come from?

  551. Matt's PS5 quest update! Eventually about a week or so after when this Extra Breakfast was recorded, I finally heard back from Sony's pre-order registration plan that I applied to back in August... which ended with me snagging a pre-order. And while I don't yet have the machine in my hands yet, that process was so smooth and well run (individual links, timed online waiting rooms, etc), I really wish Sony used that process on a wider level rather than using retailers that allowed so many consoles to be snatched up and scalped. I really hope that lessons were learned, and that their online-only launch day plan for Nov 12th ( a really smart move in covid times IMO) is run with the same level of efficiency and stability. Only time (and not poor-but-adorable doggo analogies) will tell. - Matt

  561. We've had quite a bit of internal staff debate about whether/how we should share the sources we've used when writing these series. The biggest reason why we haven't made efforts to publicly share a citation list for every series is because we often get requests from students who are looking for a quick-and-easy list to cite for an assignment, and one of our biggest hopes is that Extra History will inspire people to conduct their own research, discover multiple narratives, and even challenge our interpretation of events (in polite and sincere language of course!), rather than letting a single YouTube channel do all the work. ;) But again, this is something we continue to go back and forth on internally, and we definitely do want these videos to be in an educator's toolbox for their classroom needs.

  581. Basically, allowing another country's police force to investigate crimes in your country is admitting that their police have authority in your country, and therefore that their country has authority over yours, period.

  588. Yup! Good catch! It's technically Emperor/Empress (or if we want to get really technical Imperator ; ), but I wanted a chance to talk about this in Lies. Basically as I understand it many many people at the time continued to call the rulers Tsars, both in Europe and in Russia. In fact Catherine will actually style herself as Tsaritsa of everything but Russia proper (For example when she takes of Crimea she becomes Tsaritsa of Tauric Chersonesos). So technically technically she's both an Empress and a Tsaritsa! -JP

  607. Thank you back. I was very nervous going into writing this one; I'm aware that this history, when it's told at all, is often distorted by inaccuracy and assumption, and the last thing I wanted to do was add more to that legacy. So I put a lot of effort and a lot of time into reading all the versions of this history I could find and learning all I could about the cultures of each of the Five Nations. I'm sure I still made mistakes, but I am truly glad that the effort shows through. I hope the second and final episode will also live up to this standard! -Soraya

  610. Suda was the designer that taught me games could be weird. Not in the Mario "I'm stomping on turtles" type of weird, but the Killer 7 "Punk-rock-ultra-violence as social commentary" type of weird. This interview was hard to edit due to all the translating so it's a bit out of date at this point, but it was a blast to get to talk to him and playing Let It Die brought to mind just how passionate he is about everything. So in service of the weird, here it is. -JP (And check out Silver Case if you want to see Suda's early work or go play Let It Die if you want to see exactly what I mean by punk rock ultra violence..!)

  616. As stated in the description, as well as the beginning-ish of the video itself--the pitch video that Scott describes is exactly that: an exclusively internal presentation for investors, and typically very different than what ends up being the final game trailer shown to the press and the public (assuming that investors actually agree to fund the game in the first place, and that it doesn't get cancelled at any point along the development process, etc.). The game industry has far more cancelled projects and quiet failures than it does successful hits. --Belinda (Community Manager)

No mortal could support the horror of that countenance. A mummy again endued with animation could not be so hideous as that wretch. I had gazed on him while unfinished; he was ugly then, but when those muscles and joints were rendered capable of motion, it became a thing such as even Dante could not have conceived." -JP

  656. ***** Sorry, replied to another comment on this I saw above first but I'll just repost here too: 100% with you on that one. Due to scheduling/art pipeline stuff we didn't get to review the art as much as we'd like on this one (our artist is in Spain, the rest of us a spread over the US). We got it corrected for all the future episodes. -JP P.S. You can blame me. It killed me when I saw this too. It's my fault for not having a note on the script mentioning that the modern Hagia Sophia has some additions that the one in Justinian's time did not...

  685. Personally I think that's part of the brilliance of it. Yep, he gets a veto... but he also votes last, after everyone else has had a chance to exercise their (effective) veto since any vote that reached him by that point had unanimous support. So what harm is he going to do? At best he can stymie new laws, but he can't propose any, he can't lean on others to vote his way (the constitution forbids representatives from discussing measures in council with anyone but their own fellow nation's representatives), and honestly he's more likely to cave to social pressure on most issues than to pick a fight by vetoing unanimously supported laws every time. Worst case scenario, no one promised him the seat for life, so his clan mother could knock off his horns and replace him once the Great Law of Peace became the law of the land. Even if Tadodaho hadn't turned over a new leaf, Hiawatha's checks and balances were going to keep him in control.

  738. I'm not sure this isn't an internet myth. He dropped out of Luitpold Gymnasium when he was 15 and then failed the Polytechnic entrance exam the next year.

  739. A few extra LIES from Episode 6, which hadn't aired when we taped this segment: H1N1: Many of you correctly pointed out that H1N1 is Swine Flu, not Avian Flu. This is correct, though many theories hold that Spanish Flu was an avian virus that got its genes re-sorted in a pig. In fact, some theories suggest it was an avian flu that jumped to humans, who gave it to pigs, who then gave it back to humans! ALEXANDER FLEMING AND PFEIFFER'S BACILLUS: We mentioned that Alexander Fleming left his samples out overnight—but it's worse than that, he left them out when he went on vacation. And strangely, he didn't seem to understand that his discovery was about to reshape medicine. In fact, his paper introducing penicillin mostly proposed it as a research aid for isolating—guess what?—Pfeiffer's bacillus! Penicillin didn't effect Pfeiffer's bacillus, so the paper was mostly about this amazing substance that would kill all the other bacteria that tended to make Pfeiffer's so hard to isolate. Which just goes to show how people were still hunting Pfeiffer's, even into the 1920s. HOOD MODEL: Great job everyone on spotting my model of HMS Hood! I built it to get a feel for the ship while writing Hunting the Bismarck. But so far no one's spotted the real WWI relic on my desk or in the background. Any guesses?

  896. Women were respected as stewards of the land, who tended the farms and brought in the majority of their nation's food, about 65% (with the remainder brought in by the men's fishing and hunting). They were also heads of the clans, which in many ways was a social identity that extended beyond tribal affiliation, and Haudenosaunee culture is matrilineal, meaning identity is derived from one's mother, not (as in most European societies) from the father. There were also women's councils, and you'll notice around 6:26 that Jigonsaseh is meeting with an Oneida women's council, whose approval was just as necessary as the men's council (whom Hiawatha is meeting with) for the nation to agree to the Peacemaker's proposed alliance. So while there were distinct gender roles, and during this time (because war - waged by men - played such an outsized role) women's power and roles in society were threatened by the prevalance of war, women had a fundamentally important place in the society, so Jigonsaseh was not only welcome but necessary since only she could go among the women's councils. Later, many of those social principles regarding women will become codified when the Great Law of Peace becomes a formal constitution, and Jigonsaseh will play an important part in shaping the ways that women participate in the new form of government that the Peacemaker wants to create.

  989. Another interesting element both share: very few units, with units focused on upgrades (through xp/gear in Endless and through Affinities in Beyond Earth).  The reason?  The tech tree.  Because they don't know what technologies players will have at a given point in the game they have to tie military advancement to something they can aggregate across player progression rather than tie to specific technologies (as they don't want a player to be completely dominating but get crushed when a much weaker player rolls in who happened to pick up techs that gave them more advanced military units). -JP

He would periodically annihilate forces even after they surrendered, especially monks (more on this later...).  In Lies I plan to talk about why it took all three of the men in our story, not any one, to unify Japan.  Nobunaga's brand of warlord ruthlessness was probably essential in ending the Sengoku Jedai but alone I think it would have just sent things spiraling back into chaos eventually. -JP

  1028. We hope to do more episodes on pirates in the future! Much of that is dependent on what our patrons suggest and vote on, since they choose the majority of our series (shameless plug for patreon.com/extracredits). But yes, pirate history is definitely one of the most exciting stories to learn about :) -Belinda
    51
  1029. When the alternative is no sources at all, you work with what you have to tell the story. :) The past remains true, but history is always subjective to bias and interpretation.

  1030. P.S.  Though I think it was totally incidental and has nothing to do with gender at all it was terribly funny in a college classroom to watch all the young men in the class rush headlong into the game and die and all the young women look at the starting area before moving and avoid its deadly traps.   This is probably one of my "you had to be there" reminiscences that I've just subjected you all to.

  1036. Sorry about the double-upload of today's James Recommend, folks! I had accidentally uploaded an older version this morning with lower-quality audio, some rendering glitches and different gameplay footage, and nitpicky-ness compelled me to replace it with the intended final version. Apologies for the confusion! I know it can get a little weird/annoying seeing the same video in your feed twice. All the same, hope you enjoy it! -Dan
    49
  1037. How does the story Samson and Delilah square with modern representations? Can a mythic hero's flaws teach us as much, if not more so, than their heroic actions? Is it valuable to juxtapose older cultural beliefs with modern sensibilities? Let's talk about it!
    49

    47
  1056. Politics are an unavoidable part of life as long as we have any system of government (heck, even the lack of government is itself political!) You can certainly argue that the state of US politics needs a lot more improvement in various areas, and it's definitely been a source of frustration for so many people. But politics aren't going away as long as humanity is around--it's up to us to learn how to communicate with each other better. --Belinda

We appreciate the feedback, but also ask for folks to keep in mind that there are multiple accepted pronunciations for the names, depending on where you are from. We worked hard with an external group to try and get the pronunciation of the names as accurate as we could and apologize for any discrepancies. Thanks! - A

  1098. I can't say I'm always this good, though I'd like to be. :P And I'm sure I've made mistakes here as well; I'm a hobby historian, after all, not an expert with years of research or lived experience with this subject. But I did want to make sure we avoided some of the most common misrepresentations in Native American history, like putting Sioux headdresses on Haudenosaunee chiefs.
    40
  1099. Bwahahaha, I get this all the time because I don't advertise it much, but I've been a game designer all my career.  I've worked on games ranging from the CoD series to Farmville to stuff for Square Enix to LoL (though admittedly I think most of these projects were doing more than fine without my input).  I try to teach on the side whenever I can (though I've been too busy with games for good to actually be able to do so for the past two semesters) and I write EC/EH/This &c with my spare time. -JP P.S.  I can script but I can't program, you let me near memory management and we all die ; )

  1142. Hi, Rob told me to pass on this answer to you: "I understand your concern, as changing the record for the sake of creating drama would be a big violation. We didn't do that, though—we described Welch getting seriously ill and dropping out of the research effort (which very much happened), but we never claimed he died. In fact, I was surprised when people assumed he had. As a result, I inserted a line in Episode 6 about FDR eulogizing Welch by radio, trusting that viewers would know FDR would not be president until much later. But just to make sure there was no confusion, I also brought it up here in LIES. " Hope that helps clarify the "death" of Welch!

  1149. No problem at all! As I said, you weren't the only person who missed those references. When I write future series I'll have to make the timelines more pronounced!

  1151. I almost did an Ivan the Fool story! Maybe next time. Oh! And I really really wanted to do Baba Yaga but all the Baba Yaga stories that I found weren't really about Baba Yaga, she was just in them and they were all very similar. If you have any recommendations on Baba Yaga stories, especially if there's an origin story somewhere out there, let me know! -James Portnow
    34
  1152. If you're referring to what's called the "Mohawk" hair style today (even though that style actually originated with the Pawnee nation), that was never a uniform or expected hair style and it likely wasn't used by the Haudenosaunee until much later. Both men and women could and did wear their hair in a variety of ways.
    33
  1153. We might mention them at the end (think credits, not talky-parts) if there are games that are appropriate to play, because we'd love to encourage more like that as well. But not every series will be connected to games, since there are a lot of amazing history stories that take place in periods that don't get as much attention (either in games or even in schools) and we want to be able to talk about those, too! -Soraya

We can't change the earliest videos (Youtube does not allow videos to be "updated" in that way) but we've made an effort to improve our fact-checking process over the course of this series, and we hope that's reflected in the improvements to later episodes. We'll also be presenting an afterword on October 25 that discusses the writing and yes, the inaccuracies, in this series in more detail! -Soraya

The studio had already created several games, including a very successful iOS game, so they were able to bankroll most of its early development. -Soraya

  1223. Our very first Extra History series was sponsored by Creative Assembly, the game studio behind Total War: Rome II. The resulting Punic Wars series (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLhyKYa0YJ_5BQmw4cp7mmwtyEc4tBMUhX) turned out to be wildly popular but required all the additional costs and time of a second production pipeline on top of Extra Credits, so to this day we continue to fund its production through our Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/ExtraCredits Coincidentally enough, our foray into history videos came about because of video games. --Belinda
    25
  1224. You have to dig to find information on Jigonsaseh. She's mentioned in many recountings of the history,, but the versions that focused on her were women's histories that early European scholars had no interest in trying to record. But the stories didn't die; they just had to be tracked down later, albeit at a point after the US and Canada's forced resettlement of Haudenosaunee people caused fractures in their lengthy history of oral record keeping. Start with "The Lynx in Time" by Barbara A Mann, which you can read online with a free JSTOR account. It's a short article, but you can follow her source list if you want to chase this research more thoroughly. -Soraya

We're also taking on a couple new people who we will most likely announce in upcoming videos, and we have many "friends of the show" (like Will Overgard who narrated the Black Friday sale video) who appear every now and then! --Belinda (a recent addition to community management)

  1253. I'm not sure why the museum chose to display the rifle they did in that picture - I know that a bunch of Ned's rifles were collected as souvenirs by private individuals, and therefore have been lost to history. But every book on Ned Kelly I read, all of them by historians with more authority on the subject than me, specifically mentions that he had a Colt revolving rifle on the day of the Glenrowan siege. Examples: "Ned raised his Colt revolving rifle. The helmet made it hard to aim properly..." -Ian Jones, Ned Kelly: A Short Life. "Ned holds his Colt Revolving Rifle with his right arm directly out from his body..." -Peter Fitzsimmons, Ned Kelly If you're interested in weaponry, and Ned's guns specifically, I recommend checking out the website ironoutlaw.com which ALSO does not have a picture of the Colt (though I know at least one was taken, the day of the siege) but does confirm that he had it. Happy history hunting! -Soraya

Dan and Carrie have heroically put the game art in the corner to cover the fact that my headphone cord was flopping around in the corner and, as always, I literally didn't have time to do another take.

Don't get me wrong, I love Chronicles of Narnia (personally) but that's assuming that both of them have equal ties/connections to the genre of science fiction, which they don't--as hinted at in the video, there's a reason why we have decided to talk about specifically LOTR in Extra Sci Fi and not just any given fantasy works. --Belinda

  1302. Dan accidentally created the first Extra Credits video as part of a class assignment. He realized that, in order to satisfy the time constraints of the grading rubric, he had to speed up the video ever so slightly. And thus, a legend was born.We quite like it. It fits the show’s visual style way better than Dan’s normal voice. Trust us, we've tried it both ways.

  1303. +Robert Faber That is exactly why I wanted to use the name Iran, not Persia, for this series. Regardless of what anyone thinks of their present state, Iran has a long and storied history. Like every nation on earth, that history includes elements that we might consider good alongside those we might consider bad, and ALL of those events shape a legacy which informs who the Iranian people are and (rightfully) how they think of themselves. When we create an arbitrary distinction - "this is Persia, NOT Iran" - just because some of us in the West have complicated associations with Iran today, we are attempting to separate those people from their legacy. It is not for any of us to say that the history of modern Iran is any more or less authentically Iranian than its history in the Middle Ages, and frankly I think it is harmful to everyone if we try. We gain a better understanding of how the Iran we know today came to be when we are willing to see it as the inheritor of an incredibly long history; we gain a better understanding of the Iranian people when we are ready to see them as not simply defined by their modern state but also inspired by their past. And if you have qualms about the modern state (which, frankly, I understand) then it is all the more important to remember a time like this one, when Iran was decidedly different but still Iran, because finding pride in remembrance of how Iran has been may better lead to finding strength to reshape what it has become. -Soraya

  1316. The hidden annotations that don't go away is an on-going Youtube problem, and unfortunately the only text options it provides are White and Black (which is even harder to read on these backgrounds). What I've done to try and fix that is make the hidden messages available in Closed Caption format as well, so if you click the CC button on the bottom right and turn on "English - Bonus Facts," you can read them as white text on black background at the bottom of the screen. Sorry the annotations are so wonky, but I hope that helps! -Soraya

Yeah, I know it's not a full roguelike, and the developers have always been careful to call it "a game with roguelike elements"... but I only have so many characters to describe the game before Youtube cuts me off. :( I went with "roguelike" because I figure anyone interested in that style of game would at least be interested in hearing about this one, and can decide for themselves if it scratches that itch enough to be worth trying or not. -Soraya

  1403. Hey, asking questions is just fine! We put our pronouns near our names because 1) You don't always know what pronouns someone uses just by looking, so we like to let people know what pronouns we use 2) Some folks play characters who don't use the same pronouns they do as a player, so having that player/character differentiation can help. Hope that helps explain it! - Arthur

  1405. If it helps, keep in mind that pretty much 100% of the time, the episode artists draw things because they find them amusing/enjoyable to draw. We all have our own personalities and interests and we express them how we want to. If there is a belief that we have an agenda to try to appeal to the "youths" that is a mistaken belief. A lot of us REALLY enjoy ironic meme/internet culture. --Belinda

  1409. We're putting lots of research in, but no historian is infallible, and that includes us. One thing we'd like to do with the new series is encourage/inspire people to do their own research, because you should never rely on any one source to get your information, either in history or other aspects of life. Hopefully our viewers will find they love the subjects enough to do their own research and find out for themselves if there are things we've missed or gotten wrong. -Soraya

  1416. For starters, it's much easier to put an ally on the throne than to conquer and hold an entire country! But also, the fact that Kavadh (arguably a legitimate heir) presented the Hephthalites as his allied army meant that they didn't face as much opposition marching to Ctesiphon as they probably would have if they had only been seen as foreign invaders. After all, Sukhra managed to stop them the first time when they DID come as foreign invaders after Kavadh's father died, but the second time around, when they were working FOR Kavadh, he did nothing to stop them and even helped Kavadh take the throne. -Soraya

  1422. I'm genuinely not sure how long you've been watching the videos, but we've always had at least 2 artists on Extra History at any given time, to say nothing of the total number of artists between all our shows. Each artist takes turns working on a series. You're going to see natural style variations. Nick and Scott DeWitt have very similar art styles. Previously on Extra History, we've had art by David Hueso (now on Extra Sci Fi), Lilienne Chan, Heather McNabb, and a few odd guest artists here and there. Our newest full-time artist is Ali R. Thome---this is all clearly identified in the credits of each video, btw. It's ok to have preferences for some art styles over others, but it's not inconsistent if you consider the fact that we've had half a dozen unique individuals drawing for this show ;)

  1433. So what makes this so tough is that basically every anthropologist says "we can't find any existence of barter" but basically all the archaeological evidence shows long distance trade from a very early period of time and so you get a lot of people arguing "well, if long distance trade existed you had to have some form of exchange other than gift giving as gift giving usually involves trust that can't occur (or at least can account for the quantity of material found) in long distance trade". So you're 100% spot on, but that's why I wanted to talk about it at length in Lies. -JP

  1475. As an American who is also used to hearing "squatter" associated with poverty, this threw me for a loop as well. ;) In Australia, colonists who arrived early and/or had a lot of money would go out and build ranches on "unclaimed" land. The British Crown considered that land the territory of their government, hence these people were squatting on government land... BUT they also got to build these big ranches before anybody else did, which made them even more rich. By the time the colonial governments in Australia got around to trying to reclaim that land, the squatters had become very well established and successfully fought off (most of) the government's attempts to take their property back. Many felt that they had earned the land by risking their necks to settle it - Australia has always been famous for its deadly wildlife/climate/etc. Eventually, the word "squatter" came to be associated with rich people whether or not they'd earned their property by squatting on it. Look up the "squattocracy" ("squatter aristocracy") if you want to learn more about it! NB: All of this is a pretty Euro-centric summary of what "squatters" were. The land they were squatting on belonged to the aboriginal people, which they refused to recognize. -Soraya

  1490. Oh, that's the first I think any of us have heard of it! I'm sure James will have strong opinions on it either way, and if he does he'll probably talk about it on our Twitch channel talk shows. twitch.tv/extracredits --Belinda
    11
  1491. The point of "Lies" is to expand on the stuff we didn't have time to fit into the animated episodes, which take a while to make already. As historians we already spend a ton of time on research during the script writing and art process but inevitably we will always miss a couple of things or want to clarify other things more afterwards, because while the past remains true, "history" (the retelling of the past) is always biased and imperfect, especially for a completely introductory video series like Extra History.

  1500. That's the idea. :) As a genre, it's meant to be disconcerting, to take things that should not happen and make them seem so ordinary that it's easy to overlook until you stop, think about it, and realize how impossible it all is. -Soraya

  1501. +Hammerheadcruiser D It's from Squishables! They make the cutest little oomfshie-poof plushies! -Soraya

  1502. It's a Youtube error. Sometimes the annotation text gets "frozen" on the screen and doesn't go away unless you reload the whole video. It's annoying, and one of the reasons I started putting the Fun Facts in captions (click the CC button) as well as embedding them in the video. :\ Anyway, hope that helps you read them! -Soraya

  1529.  @malachiphoniex8501  95% of the stuff we do is planned about 3 months in advance because of the time it takes for the writer and artists to do their thing.

  1551. Unfortunately yes, that is how "the game" works for many candidates. Hopefully we made that distinction clear enough! Looking at politics like it's a game is a useful lens for understanding strategies, but there's always a nuanced human element that should be considered, and (frequently) isn't.

  1553. We actually started adding it with the Aztec mythology videos, specifically because people still believe and practice all of the myths we're discussing. We wanted to clarify what we mean when we say myth. This is still a new show and we're bound to make mistakes (like not having that disclaimer earlier even though it's just as true for earlier episodes) so we adjust. Hope that helps explain it! - A

  1567. Our subscribers/community have in common a passion for education and analyzing media--we're an educational channel, not just a "games channel who happens to make history videos" (or vice versa). We also keep our shows separated into playlists for ease of viewing! YouTube staff themselves were pretty concerned that making videos about history and games on the same channel would be certain death, but so far it's actually just grown the community so much more. While it would be nice if YouTube's interface/backend offered more support for organizing different types of content on the same channel, we're not at all concerned about losing fans as a result of adding more diverse, educational shows. --Belinda (Community Manager)

  1624. +ColegaBill Good looking out! I actually mean the Balkans here, one of my sources sites the Balkan Campaign https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balkan_Campaign_(World_War_II), where the Germans swept up Albania and Yugoslavia and helped the Italians finish taking over Greece as a source of tension between the USSR and the Third Reich. But there was certainly tension over the Baltic States too. As they were part of the invasion path that the Third Reich eventually used in Barbarossa, that might have been an even better fit! -JP

  1679. Hans Smirnov The Polish subtitles are the work of three dedicated and excellent fans who volunteered to translate Extra Credits. They provide subtitles for every new episode and are working their way through the archive to get older episodes translated, also. We're happy to have their help, and glad that Polish fans like yourself have been enjoying their work! -Soraya

  1684. Aw, thank you! Glad you enjoy the show and series, and thanks for your support! -Soraya
    6
  1685. The Youtube views certainly help, but without going into too much detail, no. The production costs of EH are equal or greater to EC, and EC has years of Youtube viewership built up behind it to support it. That being said, if you can't donate to the Patreon or prefer not to, the views do help as I said, and we hope you'll enjoy watching the new series when it comes out! -Soraya
    6
  1686. Thank you for supporting the show! I'm happy to hear that we're living up to your expectations for it. -Soraya
    6
  1687. This all happened in the late 1800s. There are tons of reports about it in the newspapers (many of which have been digitized and you can find them online) and in evidence presented at court cases. We also have police reports and interviews with people involved. You have to sort through the perspectives given by each person and make your own determination about where the truth lies, but the broad strokes are well attested. Including the preposterous sounding stuff like Ned's half-naked 1v4 with the cops. -Soraya

  1702. Any good works you can recommend from this time period (early 20th century)? Chronologically we're still very early on in our exploration of the history of sci fi, off the top of my head most of what I associate with sci fi in Japan starts with '80s-era anime. --Belinda

  1718.  @Great_Olaf5  I wish I could. Unfortunately Extra Credits operates on a pretty tight budget, which means that when additional things need to get done, it means just sort of doing them. I'm going to try to be on the road less next year though. Six weeks of having to do industry events and conventions in 4 countries and two states (followed by having to write a ton of extra scripts for some really cool sponsored series we have coming up) sort of took the wind out of me. -James Portnow

  1734. Actually, we worked very hard that month to make sure that the first EH shows were an added bonus in the weeks they came out, and it didn't interrupt our regular EC release schedule at all. :( But I can tell you that it'll continue to be that way with this one: EC will continue on its regular weekly schedule, and we are still making episodes for the other shows as well. -Soraya
    5
  1735. Games You Might Not Have Tried will still continue! Some of the games that appear on it will be on JR first, some will be new, so just think of this as an extra. But yeah, I believe the next GYMNHT episode is coming up in July or maybe August. -Soraya
    5
  1736. They're working on it, yes! They've released a couple of bug fixes since launch, and their most recent update was on March 27. My guess is that a game this large will always have some bugs, but it should smooth out the experience over time. -Soraya
    5
  1737. We think so, too. Thanks for the support! -Soraya

  1738. Truth is, I've been slammed, I haven't even gotten to play it yet ;_(

  1740. New Hearthstone content on Extra Play! James is analyzing new cards in the next expansion, Whispers of the Old Gods! Watch the Old Gods card review from the beginning: http://bit.ly/1Ttnusj
    5
  1741. I'll often seed episodes with words or ideas that I want to talk more about in Lies. Like with The Sandwich for WW1, if it's something that anyone taking a 101 class will come across, but won't necessarily get a discussion of, I'll insert it into an episode to give myself an excuse to talk about it in greater depth in Lies. -JP
    5
  1742. Youtube issue. I really wish they'd fix it. Since they haven't for months, the best fixes are to reload the video or turn on the CC button in the bottom right, where I've added the Bonus Facts as closed captions. -Soraya
    5
  1743. +JackgarPrime To everyone who was looking for a GAME plushie, they're available now at the Extra Credits store! http://bit.ly/ExtraStore

  1747. Glad you're enjoying it! -Soraya
    5
  1748. Thank you very much! So glad you enjoyed the first series, and we hope you enjoy the future ones just as much!
    5
  1749. Dunno about James, but I picked it up recently and have been working my way through. I played Heroine's Quest earlier this year and loved it. -Soraya
    5
  1750. 2. Will you talk about games during Extra History? Not necessarily. If there are games worth pointing out, we'll do it in the credits - we definitely want to see more historical games and bring attention to the ones that have done it well. But there are a lot of periods in history that don't get much attention even in history classes, and don't get any games made about them. We want to be able to cover those, too!
    5
  1751. They'll be back! It's been busy so I haven't always had time to do them, but they were here last week and they shall be here again! -Soraya
    5
  1752. It's also available on Steamworks, but of course, that's only if you're running the Steam version. Here's the link! -Soraya http://bit.ly/1BKKvPc

    5
  1754. Thanks again!  Unfortunately this was recorded before I got the feedback from the last video, but there's a big chain there about the issues.  Directionality is an issue, but the real travesty is that I'm using the headphone out to actually record from (my camera doesn't take USB, so I've got an 1/8' m to m strung between the audio in on it and the yeti headphone jack...) -JP
    5
  1755. Double-check your sources? Every single description of Ned says he had black hair, like his mother. She talks about it in an interview after she dies, how he took after her right down to the black hair. His beard had reddish tints, though. -Soraya
    5
  1756. I'm fond of 3 because it lets me go hang out with Rakeesh for a while, but it was kind of a rush job for the series since they were trying to stick in something between 3 and 4. Game 4 is so worth it, though, and I've found that the version on GOG fixes all game- (and heart-) breaking bugs if you want to try again. I play the whole series through about once a year, so I'm a bit biased, fair warning. ;) -Soraya
    5
  1757. Early access. :) They get added before final release. (Sometimes they do go up early if I'm feeling ambitious.) -Soraya

  1758. +ElNeroDiablo Yes, this is the last one of this series prior to Lies!

  1790. It's hard to tell when it's flying by.
    5
  1791. We certainly love making them!
    5
  1792. This series definitely showed us that we have some weak spots when it comes to translating written-out explanations of math into visual ones. Our hard-working animator for this video had to interpret James's scripts into visual explanations (and you'll notice I said animator, not math brain) so we might have gotten a couple details like this mixed up. Something we'll have to mention in Lies and improve in future series whether or not they feature math!
    5
  1793. You got a lot of episodes to catch up on!
    5
  1794. All streams will be available to watch as VODs directly on Twitch. Don't fret if you miss a live stream--heck, you can even tune in to our super old content in the Twitch archives right now! --Belinda

    5
  1810. Ok! Just chatted with Rob and he says it was actually more difficult choosing between historical events for specific days, as opposed to not being able to find something that happened on a day. The example he gave was events like Christmas often causing people throughout history to do big things on that day which lead to a bit of a traffic jam in picking what to include. Hope that answers your question :) - Matt

  1816. Most Extra Sci Fi series will not be this long, but we are kicking off with an in-depth look at Frankenstein specifically because we believe it sets a very strong foundation for the rest of our sci fi discussion in this show. (Each sci fi series will probably still be at least a couple episodes for a full analysis, rather than one-offs as is common with Extra Credits.) --Belinda

  1840. Weird... if anybody else finds their way here despite it not turning up in the subscriptions, please like or comment and let me know. If it's a consistent problem I'll see if I can fix what may have caused it. Thanks for the heads up! -Soraya

  1841. Maybe someday, but not right now... no more new shows for a while, I'm afraid. We don't want to spread ourselves too thin! -Soraya

  1842. With a billion? Daily Extra History, daily Extra Credits, AND Scott could run his own "Extra Cooking" show as often as there are meals in the day, probably. The possibilities are so delicious! --Belinda

  1843. All of our art credits are listed in the main episodes for each series. For Ned Kelly, David Hueso did the art, as well as the "poster" image. --Belinda

  1844. MichelFialloPerez My bad. :( There were so many cool facts I /wanted/ to put in about Ultima this week that I wound up stuffing extra information into the last two. I've changed the box size so hopefully the text is more legible now. -Soraya

  1845. Thanks! Happy I could finally bring them back this week! -Soraya
    4
  1846. +vladulenta There's a limit to how big you can make an annotation. The preview window for the episode was bigger than that limit, so I had to create two annotations to cover the whole space. Sorry, nothing too cheeky or crafty. ;) -Soraya

  1851. Me too! Oh, it's gonna happen. I've been begging for weeks. ;D -Soraya

  1852. 4. I'd like to support the show, but I can't use Patreon. What else can I do? Right now Patreon is the only method we have to accept donations, but moral support is great! We'd really love it if you can spread the link to anyone you know who likes history: http://bit.ly/EHPatreon . And when the show comes out, please watch it with adblocker turned off!

  1853. I'm doing a happy dance, too! I've been so excited about this (I'm a huge history geek). Happy dance party! -Soraya
    4
  1854. It's something that we've talked about, but we don't want to spread ourselves too thin with too much fundraising. There are episodes of both DC and ER in production right now, though, so while I can't say when they'll be released, I can tell you that we haven't forgotten about them (nor will we!) and I hope you enjoy their new episodes when they come out! -Soraya

  1891. We already have! If our series uses original music for the credits, we'll release the full song at the end of the series. You can find Temujin's here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=flaRyx90YJo I believe Sengoku Jidai's music was sourced from the public domain but you can find the song title and artist in the credits of each video. Hope that helps!

  1945. Usually the people the artists may know. They get to pick if nothing is specifically referenced from the writer.
    4
  1946. :_ExtraEmojiShiny: So happy to do so!
    4
  1947. The coolest!
    4
  1948. The reason we have a "Lies" episode in most Extra History series is to remind us all that there is more to every story, and that no one source of information is ever infallible. Extra History is first and foremost an entertaining "pop history" show, intended to spark discussion and introduce viewers to a topic they otherwise may never learn about. We encourage you to find your own sources, and maybe challenge our interpretation of events. When people realize that there is no such thing as truth-from-on-high and come together to discuss their differing viewpoints on history, that's when it really gets fun!

  1956. Oh my. There's a Steam link right above it: http://bit.ly/1md6zde

  1957. ThePCguy17 Yeah, that's what we're doing. -Soraya

  1958. +Thales Nunes Moreira I'm pretty sure that revenge is part of the cycle of cat ownership. Cat does annoying thing, owner gets revenge, cat gets revenge for owner's revenge and so on into eternity. -Soraya
    3
  1959. Did some more digging around, and apparently the subscription feeds are broken all over Youtube. For some folks it's coming back, for others it's not. Keep an eye on your favorite channels this week to make sure you catch their new episodes! -Soraya
    3
  1960. Fair point - I've changed it. Would you (or others reading this) like us to upload the actual dramatic reading portion of this in the future? Or just the analysis? -Soraya
    3
  1961. In this case, it actually means the computer cheats. It doesn't take the time to "walk" from one place to another while solving the puzzle: it simply ports itself there. So it's unbeatable unless a human cheats in the same way - and hey, that's possible, so I guess I'll update the Bonus Facts if someone discovers enough glitches to make up all that difference. Until then, the computer overlord reigns supreme. -Soraya
    3
  1962. +Pendragon We do hear your cries! There will be Extra History merch, but not in time for the holidays. So we didn't want to get anyone's hopes up. -Soraya

  1967. The new code is indeed for new players, but we're working on a gift for current players as well! That'll be ready when Episode 4 comes out. Hope you enjoy the series!
    3
  1968. ***** I know, but it looks silly when I leave the text up while the game is full-screened. You can turn on the captions though (CC button in the bottom right) - I always find those more readable. -Soraya

  1969. None, actually! https://becausegamesmatter.com/faq/#6

  1976. You might have missed our Lies episode that we published last Saturday--(almost) all of our Extra History series will have a Lies episode at the end before we move on to the next series. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmjLWS-JsWA

  2007. Whenever we air Extra History outside of Saturdays, it means it's a sponsored series that runs on a separate schedule/track than our main Extra History series (the ones that are voted on by Patreon supporters)! So it all just depends on if we're currently working with a sponsor or not.

  2041. Our mistake!

  2042. This was totally a goof on our part! Sometimes communications between our art and writing departments must be divined by the oracles and things get mixed up.

  2045. Hi there! Dan has left Extra Credits to pursue new projects like his new channels, Play Frame and New Frame Plus His departure was announced at the end of this video here: https://bit.ly/2P5yIH8 The new voice you’re hearing is Matt Krol, a television producer and a VO artist. He’s also our new showrunner! Likewise, the Kiners are also working on new projects, but they recommended Tiffany Román who wrote this piece (It's one of my favorites) James is still here! Rob Rath, one of the writers for Extra History and the writer for the 1918 Flu, handled Lies for this series. Hope that helps clear things up! - A

  2080. Can you elaborate more on this? I've heard several complaints along these lines for many Lies episodes. Is there background noise you're hearing, or are you not able to hear James clearly/loudly enough, or is it something else? Thanks for your feedback! I personally don't have an issue with most of the Lies audio in any given video so I'm trying to understand why it's not working out for some of our audience. --Belinda

  2106. Daniel is the sole producer of Extra Frames and so they aren't committed to any sort of schedule--it's basically dependent on when he has time to work on them. I can tell you he's been extremely hard at work on the previously aforementioned "big project" mentioned on the last Extra Frames video, and he even disclosed the subject matter/game name of this project in his Bound let's-play series on the Extra Play channel! But it's an entirely different beast to manage compared to the extremely smooth production routine we have going for these 5-9-minute episodes. --Belinda

  2121. +Sleeping Chaser The reason we have a "Lies" episode in most Extra History series is to remind us all that there is more to every story, and that no one source of information is ever infallible. Extra History is first and foremost an entertaining "pop history" show, intended to spark discussion and introduce viewers to a topic they otherwise may never learn about. We encourage you to find your own sources, and maybe challenge our interpretation of events. When people realize that there is no such thing as truth-from-on-high and come together to discuss their differing viewpoints on history, that's when it really gets fun! If you can find one book on the subject (even if it's just from a Google search), you're already off to a good start. Turn to the bibliography section of that book and you'll find a treasure trove of recommendations. Happy hunting!
    3
  2122. A DANG GOOD book series! We didnt think of the similarities but YES we can see it now! :_ExtraEmojiGetEm:

  2125. I think they were a little nervous! It's their first Lies video ever, I'm sure you would feel similarly if you knew your face was going to be on view for a few hundred thousand people XD. But we'll see more of them around so they will be less nervous with time :) --Belinda

  2131. I'd recommend using the subtitles ("English - Bonus Facts") because that way the bonus facts will pop on your screen the second they come up, giving you more time to read. The annotations system just isn't fancy enough to have a countdown feature, but if you do prefer that method, I usually change the annotations every time the game goes full screen. Watch for that and you'll know when a new annotation starts. :) -Soraya

  2133. Great!  Thanks for the advice.  I've got it on Cardiod, this time the gain was too high, I just didn't see it before recording and didn't have time to rerecord. I'm totally going to try it straight up instead of directed, but here's the huge problem I'm struggling with with this mic: I'm using a normal non-usb camera, so I have to out by using a male to male 1/8 inch from the headphone jack on the mic back to the aux in on the camera, which leaves it sounding hollow.  Have any thoughts on a better way to do it?   Thanks a ton! JP
    2
  2134. shadebug atomheartother Thanks!  I'm trying to keep this to the absolute minimal time investment because...well otherwise I couldn't do it.  So this will help.  When recording though I'm by myself and don't have a remote way to start my camera so I actually have to walk to it, turn it on, walk back to where I'm supposed to be doing this &c.  If I have to mess with the computer on the way it gets to be a pain (because my camera will only record in 12 minute increments...yes I know, I need better gear, but I make nothing from Extra Credits or Extra History and cutting back on the consulting for Games for Good has pretty much left me broke at the moment ; ) You know if of the converters like: http://www.dhgate.com/product/3-5mm-1-8-1-8-quot-aux-male-audio-to-usb/159662005.html are any good? Again, thanks a ton, JP

  2176. We don't control the ads that show up on our videos--advertisers work with Google to do that based on your web browsing habits (or what they think they should target to you, anyway, even if it's an incorrect guess). The absolute most that YouTube channels can do is select very broad categories of ads that they don't want shown on their videos (for example, a family-friendly channel like ours can turn off ads for adult-oriented products, but we can't block a specific company or organization). Hope this helps! --Belinda

  2189. Hey Triskan! We didn't give up on Gilgamesh at all! Each of our Mythology series is two episodes on a particular culture's mythology voted on by the Patreons. But because of our neat little voting system (explained over here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFoxvBvY-YI ) I'm sure we'll return to Gilgamesh before too long. Thanks for watching!

  2194. Our official policy runs thusly: "If you want to use our videos for commentary, highlighting, etc. (such as if you are a YouTube creator with your own channel), please keep your selection to under 45 seconds, and contact us if you need to use more than that." I would encourage you to create your own unique art and characters when developing your videos, as it will add a lot more substance to your content than just borrowing our art (or other people's art as well). This is true regardless of whether or not you choose to directly credit the original creators. I don't want to comment on the specifics of your situational needs, but it is just something to keep in mind when developing your channel brand. --Belinda (Community Manager)
    2
  2195. Hi, you must not be familiar with Lies. We can only share so much information in our animated episodes due to production constraints, and Lies is intended as an appendix of the stuff we didn't get to cover earlier or may have (accidentally) gotten incorrect, because there are so many historical sources and we only pick a few to use in our shows.
    2
  2196. Hi there! Dan left Extra Credits to pursue new projects like his new channels, Play Frame and New Frame Plus His departure was announced at the end of this video here: https://bit.ly/2P5yIH8 The new voice you’re hearing is Matt Krol, a television producer and a VO artist. He’s also our new showrunner!
    2
  2197. It's a name that stuck when we first started making these. Doesn't take away our authenticity once people watch them :)

  2199. Welcome to the channel!
    2
  2200. Yes it will be!
    2
  2201. This was totally a goof on our part! Sometimes communications between our art and writing departments must be divined by the oracles and things get mixed up. We're still refining the process of making Extra Mythology, so thank you for pointing out this important mistake. We'll do better to catch these things in the future. Thanks! - A
    2
  2202. That's precisely why we're pacing ourselves! ;). Design Club was started when we had more people on board and we were still experimenting with how much content we could feasibly create (and what the phrase "reasonable scope" meant to us). Now that we've successfully made "the base formula" of Extra Credits work for Extra History, we're confident we can make it work for a brand new educational show like Extra Sci Fi!

  2230. We've made some changes to our production pipeline to handle the increased number of shows, but scaling up the number of shows actually meant that we got to make the work much more steady for (and with!) our artists, so it was a good time for us to expand. There's always a lot of variables when you make a change like this but we've planned it out to the best of our ability and we're feeling pretty good about the way it's worked so far! -Soraya, Media Director

  2236. We make a Lies video for pretty much every Extra History series we do, this is nothing new...
    2
  2237. It is a lot of work for sure! I wouldn't be able to tell you how many hours each episode adds up to in production time (I don't know the answer to that). Extra History takes way more time than Extra Credits and Extra Sci Fi because there's a lot more art research we have to do for that show (drawing the right flags, the right weapons, etc.). We have 4 full-time artists between these 3 shows and we're usually working on episodes at least 3 weeks in advance of when they air! --Belinda
    2
  2238. Thanks so much for supporting the Show!
    2
  2239. All subtitles on all of our videos come from the awesome fans who volunteer to create them (Google auto-translate usually does a pretty good job on English subtitles at least). Lies videos are unfortunately less likely to get subtitles simply because of their length, but most of the other videos do get subtitles in multiple languages. https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/6054623?hl=en
    2
  2240. I'm not James and didn't do the research with him, but I do recommend Polybius and Livy if you want to dive into the original sources. (I loooove Polybius, but I am a huge geek.) Dan Carlin's "Hardcore History" podcast, specifically the Punic Nightmares series, is also good for a listen if you just want an overview. -Soraya

  2248. Same as you would--Google Scholar, local libraries, and our own saved history textbooks from college classes (some of us graduated in history!) are all great ways to find sources. We do have to be extremely picky when it comes to writing these, however, or every Extra History series would be 20 episodes long and over 10 minutes per episode. --Belinda

  2263. Spotify is a good idea. Maybe we can look into that this year.
    2
  2264. Thanks!
    2
  2265. Good luck on your book! :_ExtraEmojiNotes:
    2
  2266. That's perfectly fine--we have a lot of hardcore history nerds in our audience who like to see the behind-the-scenes nuance of our main series, and so these videos are partly for them! Did you check out the Kiners' music for this series? https://youtu.be/flaRyx90YJo I personally love the music tracks the most for each EH series. --Belinda

  2267. Thanks for watching and may your homebrew be deliciously amazing!

  2270. Thank you so much for the note and clarification! □
    2
  2271. Nope, our other regularly scheduled series will proceed as normal!
    2
  2272. Oh that would be a fun one! I'm going to put it on my list.
    2
  2273. ❤️ Thank you so much for all your support!!!

  2281. Thank you for watching and the sub! We work really hard to create entertaining and engaging content! :_ExtraEmojiHeart:
    2
  2282. The episode publicly launches at 10:30am PST, so you got the notification right on time--but we always release it 1 day early for our Patreon supporters! patreon.com/extracredits
    2
  2283. Fixed!
    2
  2284. Our pleasure!
    2
  2285. Kamehameha is finished. We always do one-offs or very short series in between our bigger series on Extra History. :)
    2
  2286. We totally did!
    2
  2287. Thank you so much Cool Banana! This really helps out the show!
    2
  2288. Hello :_ExtraEmojiDab:
    2
  2289. We couldn't help ourselves!
    2

    2
  2291. I agree, but tbh I think he always sounds like that. When you sleep as little as James does....!
    2
  2292. Thanks for watching!
    2
  2293. We already have you covered on the Zulu Empire at the very least, though we managed to beat Sabaton to the punch on that one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZLGKFWlRzY

  2296. We LOVE Kurzvesagt! Thanks so much for the compliment!
    2
  2297. You should check out our website! We have a list of all our current crew on there: becausegamesmatter.com/about/ We also mention these people in the credits screen of every video. Soraya and James both do a lot of writing on Extra History, specifically, and I think they've been playing around with the interview-style format. This is only the third or fourth Lies video (to my memory) where we've tried having more than one person--in the past it's normally just been James. Because we're not a live-action channel primarily, we've had to do a ton of experimenting with the best audio/lighting/staging setups, understandably. Thanks for watching the show! --Belinda
    2
  2298. Asimov was actually inspired by these "forgotten foundations" of sci fi, as the video explains!
    2
  2299. *they
    2
  2300. Thank you!
    2
  2301. We have some fun shorts coming out that hit on a few mythology topics.
    2
  2302. Hello!
    2
  2303. That is actually Carrie, who looks quite similar :) We have not worked with Allison for quite a few years now, every time there is an on-screen bean that looks like her it's actually Carrie!
    2
  2304. :_ExtraEmojiNotes: What have been some of your favorites?
    2
  2305. muito obrigado por apoiar o show!
    2
  2306. History lies to us constantly (or rather, our vast and varying and flawed accounts of history). We love sharing the stuff that we didn't get to cover in the main show due to differing versions of the same story.
    2
  2307. He just keeps getting better!

  2325. Hi there! Dan has left Extra Credits to pursue new projects like his new channels, Play Frame and New Frame Plus His departure was announced at the end of this video here: https://bit.ly/2P5yIH8 The new voice you’re hearing is Matt Krol, a television producer and a VO artist. He’s also our new showrunner!
    2
  2326. It's purely for personal gain. Matt still gives Zoey all the treats. :_ExtraEmojiDab:
    2
  2327. :_ExtraEmojiWalpole:
    2
  2328. Thank you!
    2
  2329. Zoey says they make the most amazing lattes. :_ExtraEmojiShiny:
    2
  2330. History can definitely be incredibly subjective as there are lots of different angles one can choose to tell the story of a particular event or person (just like how we pick and choose the way we tell our present-day stories). Thanks for sharing with commentary! --Belinda
    2
  2331. You can still watch all streams as VODs directly on Twitch after they air--there's a whole video archive on there already from our olden days with Dan Emmons.
    2
  2332. Patrons can also suggest topics. The majority of our video topics come from patrons who have suggested and voted on their favorite topic. Learn more at patreon.com/extracredits

  2341. Did you hit up Old Tucson?
    2
  2342. Thanks!!! David is going to be so excited you said that :_ExtraEmojiGetEm:
    2
  2343. Thanks for hanging out with us PANR
    2
  2344. Thank you for all the support!
    2
  2345. David really outdid himself for this episode! We love his art, but we also hope he doesn't overwork himself!
    2
  2346. That makes a ton of sense since they literally sponsored the production of our Cold War episodes (as announced in those videos)
    2
  2347. yassss!!!
    2
  2348. There IS one coming up :)
    2
  2349. We hope your Dad gets better soon :_ExtraEmojiSad:
    2
  2350. Thanks PANR!
    2
  2351. Thank you so much! We love being able to bring so many different parts of history to light, and hopefully we hit a good mix of great stories about times you've heard of before and great stories about times that are new to you!
    2
  2352. Each of our mythology series is two episodes long! Some stories are short enough to be contained by one episode, some need two. But if you're having trouble finding the follow-up, they're labeled by the culture they come from (Japanese, Greek, Aztec, etc). Hope that helps! - A
    2
  2353. This "pure fantasy" is also an important cultural cornerstone for religion and art throughout history--which is also partly why we have a series called Extra Sci Fi, since science fiction media also contributes to culture! --Belinda
    2
  2354. Thank you!
    2
  2355. Not far enough down in the timeline for us to do an episode on.
    2
  2356. Thank you so much Beth! Your support really helps the show!
    2
  2357. They would be very happy to hear this!
    2
  2358. Thank you! We love making things a little easier on everyone! :_ExtraEmojiDab:
    2
  2359. The Kindle edition is currently region-locked to US customers, something which we were unaware of at the time this video was made. --BElinda
    2
  2360. 😂😂😂
    2
  2361. Coming in from different parts of the world made this a real challenge! Thanks so much for the comments! :_ExtraEmojiDab:
    2
  2362. We've actually researched this in the past, but YouTube is not very well designed to support multiple channels under one creator. Plus, at this point we're much more of a broader, educational channel than a "games channel that makes history videos on the side" (or history channel that makes videos about games, etc.). We're passionate about learning and geeking out over ALL the things, now!
    2
  2363. Aw yay! Thanks and happy birthday (slightly in advance) - our gift will be arriving tomorrow!
    2
  2364. DO ittttt! :_ExtraEmojiDab:
    2
  2365. She came back just to draw these special episodes with us! We don't get to keep her permanently, but I'm sure we'll get to do guest episodes with her again. -Soraya

  2375. We take suggestions for Extra History exclusively through our Patreon, as a reward to the folks who help us keep the show running. At different tiers, you can vote on or suggest topics! patreon.com/ExtraCredits
    2
  2376. Ohhhh such a good one!
    2
  2377. We go back and forth about this quite a bit. The main reason we don't post citations (at this time) is that we want students (who make up a lot of our viewers) to be inspired to do their own research on the subject. A lot of times history has conflicting accounts and different perspectives (most obvious with military conflicts--we're telling this series from Sweden's perspective, for example.) We do cover some of these differences in the Lies videos. Extra History was always intended to serve as an entertaining, narrative introduction to history for the casual viewer, rather than a completely neutral and fully fleshed-out academic resource. As such, some details will inevitably get left out or modified for the sake of time and efficiency. We could cite a book, for example, but a viewer who looks up the same book might find that there are a hundred more details about the story that paint a far more accurate picture, but we weren't able to include for the sake of time. Hope that explanation helps!
    2
  2378. Thank you Cool Banana!
    2
  2379. This was totally a goof on our part! Sometimes communications between our art and writing departments must be divined by the oracles and things get mixed up. We're still refining the process of making Extra Mythology, so thank you for pointing out this important mistake. We'll do better to catch these things in the future. Thanks! - A

  2392. Hello! Our writer for this series is Robert Rath who studied in Hawaii and has a degree in European History. I can also say this is one of his FAVORITE subjects to talk about! Seriously he was over the moon when this subject was suggested by our Patreons because he's spend a bunch of time at museums and reading about the subject. His recommended reading list for this series will be available in our "Path to Pearl Harbor Lies" video. Which should come out on 1/7/2023.
    2
  2393. Thank you for watching!

  2406. Many educational channels host multiple series on one channel without it taking away from their brand. Plus, YouTube doesn't make it easy for creators to have multiple channels in the first place, unfortunately.

Ali is the artist who worked on this series, as well as Majapahit, while Nick is the artist who worked on the Irish potato famine. Their styles are a bit different but I think it's cool to see how different artists interpret the "Extra Credits" look. - A

  2488. We're sneaky that way! Glad you came back and enjoyed them so much. :) -Soraya

  2489. +Comrade Khosikov We always upload our Extra History videos early for the patrons who support us--at $3/month you can get early access to these videos! More information here: patreon.com/extracredits
    1
  2490. We made a bunch of videos on World War I actually! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLhyKYa0YJ_5DfJnFBZwz8xd37MA6I16oJ
    1
  2491. It would have given away the secret! But thank you very much, glad to have your support for the show! -Soraya

  2492. There are actually dozens and dozens of keyboard layouts used throughout the world, even if you're just looking at those used by native English speakers. This video references the AZERTY layout. You can read all about it and all the other keyboard layouts here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_layout There are many wonderful ways to type and no way is inherently superior--it's just a matter of how one's been taught typing, or a matter of personal preference and accessibility. --Belinda

  2493. +Jonathan Garay You are welcome to use YouTube's community contribution system to submit translated captions for any video. More information here: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/6054623?hl=en
    1
  2494. We definitely want to include other artists as well. Thanks for the recommendation! -Soraya
    1
  2495. We hear the feed issue should be fixed now, but I'd recommend keeping an eye out for new videos on all your channels this week just in case! -Soraya
    1
  2496. Haha, no, we'll keep it focused on World History. But James and Dan are doing a reddit AMA in about half an hour, if you want to stop by and ask them questions there! -Soraya http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/
    1
  2497. It's this really obnoxious Youtube glitch. -_- Sometimes the annotation text gets "stuck" and there's no way to wipe it other than to reload the video. I'm in the process of adding captions for the Bonus Facts, as an alternate option, which someone suggested earlier today. -Soraya

  2498. FoodPunch Thanks! -Soraya

  2505. It'll be here on Wednesday, as usual! The new shows aren't going to interfere with the Extra Credits schedule in any way. -Soraya
    1
  2506. We'd love to share these videos with teachers and schools, who are welcome to use them (for free!) any time they like! If we find good ways to get the word out about them, we'll definitely do that, and if you have ways to spread them on your own, we'd really appreciate that! -Soraya
    1
  2507. This series is going to be focused on how the war began (and why), not so much the war itself. Though we'd love to come back to those subjects some day, and give them all a fuller treatment, we're keeping each series short and focused. -Soraya
    1
  2508. Whoops. Thanks for the heads up! -Soraya
    1
  2509. James and Daniel are masterminding this one, but we have a new artist just for Extra History. We're excited to introduce him to you soon! -Soraya
    1
  2510. It's a book! Definitely check it out if you like the idea of an arcology, as this laid the groundwork for it. http://amzn.to/1p5bL4U -Soraya
    1
  2511. We actually do have one already! It's not always up-to-date with every latest video we make but we do re-organize it periodically to keep it all in place. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLhyKYa0YJ_5BuNVhOt8Ls82Cr20yo6Y_p
    1
  2512. +Warden Gaming I'm really glad the mantra has served you well! It's one of my favorite episodes and - if I do say so myself - looks great on that shirt. -Soraya
    1
  2513. +SageLee97 Honestly these episodes are old enough that we no longer have track of the particular research sources we used for these scripts. I'd recommend looking in the Wikipedia bibliography to get started on researching this topic further! --Belinda
    1
  2514. Yeah, we had a couple of things to fix. Sorry for the confusion, everybody! We're adding clarification now.
    1
  2515. Join our Patreon to submit series suggestions ($8 tier) and vote on series suggestions ($5 tier). We do sometimes do sponsored series like this one, however, if the topic is a good fit for our channel. patreon.com/ExtraCredits --Belinda
    1
  2516. That's because I messed up the title. D: It's "A Living Soul' - here: http://amzn.to/1mfWATJ -Soraya
    1
  2517. Try turning on the Bonus Fact captions! That version is always legible. :) -Soraya
    1
  2518. Don't worry, we'll post the first episode here on Youtube as well. :) You can join us in spirit! -Soraya
    1
  2519. There's only one piece of my backdrop that changes fairly regularly.  This week it's something...interesting.  Why is it there ; ) -JP
    1
  2520. Disthron Yes...you have the right object!
    1
  2521. All the shows come out once a week, ER on Tuesdays, EC on Wednesdays, and JR on Fridays. We haven't reduced the schedule at all since we introduced the new shows. -Soraya
    1
  2522. I hope so! Then it'll be easy for them to try it, and see what they think. -Soraya
    1
  2523. The fan upmake is fantastic! The only thing that makes me a little sad is that they increased the difficulty curve of the battle system - don't get me wrong, the new battle system they introduced is interesting, but the monsters take so many hits to kill that a newly imported character (100 Stamina) can basically kill themselves just from swinging and dodging. So I either wind up avoiding battles all game, or go back to the original with its charming pink pants. -Soraya
    1
  2524. It is indeed available on Mac. Go forth and Swapper! -Soraya
    1
  2525. We posted on our Mary Anning video last weekend that our Ned Kelly Lies video is coming out this weekend! --Belinda
    1
  2526. When there's a number in the corner of the preview image it means it's part of a series! You'll see much more about this for a few weeks yet! --Belinda
    1
  2527. Penny for our thoughts. <3 -Soraya
    1
  2528. Yep, any new episodes will still be coming out on Tuesdays! -Soraya
    1
  2529. Youtube is the WORST. They don't have fixed sizing on annotations so it all changes based on your screen (and often gets mushed). I'll try to adjust the boxes again; hopefully that fixes it for you, but post again if it does not. -Soraya
    1
  2530. erikthereddest They're hiiiiding. :) Javan knows where to look. -Soraya
    1
  2531. It's a pain, but I recommend grabbing a copy of your save file and putting it in a different back-up folder now and again. That way, when you hit the glitches, you can just go back to the last back-up instead of back to the beginning. I feel your pain, though. :( -Soraya
    1
  2532. We take topic suggestions and have viewers vote on their favorites entirely through our Patreon page. More information here: patreon.com/ExtraCredits
    1
  2533. Watch our Lies episode (posted today) for an announcement at the end of our next series! (We also keep our Patreon supporters updated on our schedule.) --Belinda
    1
  2534. Huh, that's an interesting thought. I'll work on it. -Soraya
    1
  2535. That's awesome! Always good news when fellow history geeks enjoy our work. -Soraya
    1
  2536. Not sure. I'll look into it, but if you find one, please let us know (email at extracreditz[at]gmail[dot]com ) because I'm sure there will be others who appreciate having the choice. :) -Soraya
    1
  2537. Best thing about the Dark Arisen dungeon: it's accessible from the starting area, so you don't even have to finish the game to go in. I mean, if you want to turn into a level 1 pancake, that's your call. -Soraya
    1
  2538. We're very grateful for our subtitles, but they are provided on a volunteer basis from viewers like you (as we are not a multilingual team ourselves). We do invite all of our subtitlers to credit themselves in the subtitles (usually during the Extra Credits endtitles), and we are totally fine with this credit including a link to a website as long as the website in question is "work safe." https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/6054623?hl=en
    1
  2539. My bad, thought I turned those off. Should be fixed now. -Soraya
    1
  2540. Thank you so much! I think you'll enjoy the WWI series about how the war began. Those events can get so tangled in the history books, but the story behind them is well worth hearing and understanding. -Soraya
    1
  2541. Have you ever watched Shut Up and Sit Down? They review some very interesting board/card games that might inspire you.
    1
  2542. Can't vouch for quality, but the game is moddable and the community has already created at least one faction mod so far. I found it here: http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=3553836 -Soraya
    1
  2543. Very soooooon!
    1
  2544. We hope so, too, and we certainly appreciate the support! Also, the A+ use of the word fungible. -Soraya
    1
  2545. Well, there are other months! Thank you for the kind words and the interest in supporting. We hope you enjoy the first series - not to mention whatever you pick up with your RP. ;) -Soraya
    1
  2546. Well, this will tickle you then: Extra History - The Punic Wars - The First Punic War
    1
  2547. Have you found them in the previous ones yet? -Soraya
    1
  2548. Benjamin Coyle Just the JR vids, but they're in all of them.
    1
  2549. Woohoo! Happy birthday to you (in advance).
    1
  2550. One of the things I love best is that it doesn't get hung up on obtuse puzzles, so I think you'll do just fine. The fact that they had to include so many different solutions to everything (so each class could do it) means most puzzles are more a matter of figuring out which way you want to approach a puzzle (break in the front door or sneak in a window?) rather than how you can actually solve it. -Soraya
    1
  2551. Our schedule of upcoming series is always posted on Patreon (and if you join at the $5 support level or above you can even vote in our polls and contribute ideas for new series!) patreon.com/ExtraCredits
    1
  2552. Haha, thank you! History is all about stories, and once those stories and the people in them to you mean something to you, then it's much easier to remember who did what and why they did it. That's what we're trying to do with Extra History! -Soraya
    1
  2553. Thank you! Glad to hear the show brought you something new that you enjoyed. I found myself really looking forward to them, too! -Soraya
    1
  2554. Don't worry, our CPA is very thorough and will be taking care of this for us. :) -Soraya

  2556. Normally I agree and am not a stickler for price, especially for small companies but pricing your game and monetizing is actually a big part of design and here's a place where I think the company would have done better (and thus be able to make more of the games they want in the future) by pricing it more appropriately. (Besides I don't want anyone to feel like they got ripped off ; )
    1
  2557. It's a poro from League of Legends. -Soraya

  2558. Ohhh that would have been a good one too!

  2560. Thanks so much for supporting the crew on Patreon! :_ExtraEmojiHeart:
    1
  2561. D.Va voice Thanks for your support! <3 As for mythology, possibly! But Extra Mythology is still listed as its own possible show (unlocked with the next tier on Patreon), so there won't be a noticeable overlap in potential content. If we're being honest, the majority of literature/pop culture media explores human nature in some capacity, so we have to draw the line somewhere to keep our focus sharp and scope narrow! --Belinda (Community Manager)
    1
  2562. No Lies episode, this is just a two-part one-off
    1
  2563. I found a really great comment thread about this exact thing earlier today, with some perspectives that summed it up much better than I could. --Belinda https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9TET6YTYrk&lc=Ugw3UChwIg1k7ZWLmQ14AaABAg

  2572. Thanks!
    1
  2573. No you're awesome!
    1
  2574. We will have to check it out!
    1
  2575. We planned it like that. :_ExtraEmojiDab:
    1
  2576. We've actually researched this in the past, but YouTube is not very well designed to support multiple channels under one creator. Plus, at this point we're much more of a broader, educational channel than a "games channel that makes history videos on the side" (or history channel that makes videos about games, etc.). We're passionate about learning and geeking out over ALL the things, now!
    1
  2577. :_ExtraEmojiWalpole:

  2578. We got that on Nebula
    1
  2579. James does games design but has always been a passionate writer!
    1
  2580. Check our YouTube Community page/tab! We post announcements in there when we have to delay episodes.
    1
  2581. Hello! At this point we have too many individual stories to continue doing single story playlists. It was really hard for people to find things. We did add a few playlist other than our regional ones though. Like famous figures, U.S. Civil War and Science and Commerce, which might be good ones to visit if you like a particular topic.
    1
  2582. :_ExtraEmojiHeck:YES!
    1
  2583. Amazing!!! 😱
    1
  2584. We've produced one Extra Credits episode every week since we started in 2010 on the Escapist's site. Sometimes we need to skip weeks due to production pipeline rests or issues, but in general the amount of game design episodes we've made hasn't decreased over time. It's not like we'd be making 3 Extra Credits episodes a week if we didn't have Extra Sci Fi or History, for example--we'd still be making exactly one per week. like we always have. I'm not as familiar with the Crash Course fanbase compared to the Extra Credits fanbase, but in general I don't really see anyone on Crash Course complaining that the channel needs to only do history shows, for example. Extra Credits has been moving in a broader educational direction for the past few years now, which not everyone likes (we have a number of History fans who never watch the game design videos, for example). For better or worse, YouTube doesn't have a great system for supporting multiple channels per creator. Some folks have taken to subscribing to individual playlists from us so that they can stay updated on their favorite videos from us while ignoring the others.

  2611. This was totally a goof on our part! Sometimes communications between our art and writing departments must be divined by the oracles and things get mixed up. We're still refining the process of making Extra Mythology, so thank you for pointing out this important mistake. We'll do better to catch these things in the future. Thanks! - A

Dan has left Extra Credits to pursue new projects like his new channels, Play Frame and New Frame Plus His departure was announced at the end of this video here: https://bit.ly/2P5yIH8 The new voice you’re hearing is Matt Krol, a television producer and a VO artist. He’s also our new showrunner!

  2635. Extra History and Extra Credits will both continue coming out at the same rate: one episode per week every Saturday and Wednesday, respectively!
    1
  2636. The show has been in the works for months and months! We've always loved science fiction, and have even analyzed/discussed it a bit in our Extra Credits series!
    1
  2637. :_ExtraEmojiWalpole:
    1
  2638. Both are correct! We do have two artists for Extra History who both have pretty different styles (Ali did Majapahit, Nick did Ghengis Khan), but the Three Kingdoms series is being done by a guest artist.

  2665. Right now Dan is of the opinion that he can handle this much voice work, but we keep open lines of communication with everyone on staff, so if he or anyone feels overwhelmed by the new schedule, we'll work with them to find ways to fix it! Even something like bringing on a new narrator for ESF isn't out of the question, but so far, so good for Dan. :) -Soraya, Media Director

  2688. @TheFiresloth, it's been hard for us too to find things about Mali history, particularly stuff that's in English. I know Rob Rath, Jac, and James have been working super hard on this and I can't wait to see their work. --Belinda

  2694. That's been a LONG-standing tradition for the past 8 years we've been running this show! You should compare it with our first videos--now those are pitched up like nothing else! Dan accidentally created the first Extra Credits video as part of a class assignment. He realized that, in order to satisfy the time constraints of the grading rubric, he had to speed up the video ever so slightly. And thus, a legend was born.We quite like it. It fits the show’s visual style way better than Dan’s normal voice. Trust us, we've tried it both ways.

  2706. Surprisingly, not a lot of details in historical accounts (flags included) are universally agreed upon by historians--you might find a source that says X flag was used during X time period, and another source that differs by a few years. There have even been times when the comments section claimed we got a flag wrong, but the sources we used suggested that the flag was indeed correct. When people realize that there is no such thing as truth-from-on-high and come together to discuss their differing viewpoints on history, that's when it really gets fun! --Belinda

  2715. You are correct that Mary Shelley did not write the first sci fi novel, but "Frankenstein" is commonly credited by many literary scholars as the work that defined the common elements that make up what we know as modern science fiction. The Wikipedia article on "History of Science Fiction" links to some great resources that analyze this more. We are going to cover this much more in detail over the next few episodes! ;)

When we do, it'll take a while to make, but we'll definitely do that four episode run. For now that's all we're promising though!

  2823. Actually there's quite a few of us on the team who are Christian (or who believe in the Christian concept of God). Personally when I watched this episode, I thought based on his unusual inflection that Dan was "speaking" from Guthrum's perspective, who was an outsider to the Christian faith. We deliberately write these episodes as stories rather than objective summaries, so there's some wiggle room for creative phrasing that makes the story come alive. --Belinda

But to each their own! You are certainly welcome to watch the shows you're most interested in :) --Belinda

  2862. There are as many ways to say Genghis Khan's name for as many languages in the world that there are (appropriately enough given his global influence). We chose this way because frankly, that's the pronounciation our (English-speaking majority) audience is most familiar with, and our goal with this show is making history accessible and interesting from the get-go: there's lots of good sources of there on the Mongol language we hope interested viewers will look into.

  2875. I had a C.S. Lewis phase in high school and sucked up the Space Trilogy accordingly. I don't know how I feel about it now to be honest? It wasn't bad in my opinion, but I would have loved to watch Extra Sci Fi in high school for a wider breadth of good sci fi recommendations. I feel like if I had read more sci fi I would have had more works to compare the Space Trilogy with. I'm curious to know if James has read it. --Belinda

  2904. 1). He did give a specific reason in "Choice Paralysis" episode, namely that he wanted to work on his own YouTube channel, where Extra Frames has now moved to. 2). Girlfriend? They have the same last name and have been married for about 10 years. Sorry, just thought this was a bit comical so I wanted to correct. --Belinda

  2913. Extra History still comes out on Saturday, same as always! And it's not as though never airing Extra Sci Fi would have changed our production pipeline to allow more than one history episode a week :) If you want, you can turn off channel notifications and subscribe to the show-specific playlists of your choice, to stay updated on the shows you like the most!

  2921. We've actually always produced Extra Credits once a week, both way back when and nowadays too---it's just harder sometimes to see that because it's no longer a 1-1 ratio with our other (also once-a-week) content. Crash Course has done multiple series all over the place on their channel, from math to science to world history to media analysis... At this point, us adding new shoes isn't taking away from our roots, but adding to them. We're passionate about education overall!

  2946. As a giant fan of Westworld, I think that this is one of the most interesting questions in the show! The Guests treat the park as if it were VR because it is, from their perspective. Of course, the Hosts have a very different perspective. So I think it starts as an interesting blend of both, though it stops being/having the same elements as VR as the show progresses. - A
