We got to acknowledge, even though ww1 was horrible the people still possessed feelings and ability of understanding of love and care for a truce, especially at christmas ❤
Eso es sierto, algo que no se vio en la segunda Guerra Mundial, bueno, no por nada fue una de las guerras más crueles
The Canadians shot the Germans who approached their trenches 💀

Summary
Over Christmas 1914, singing and soccer broke out between British and German forces. On Christmas Eve 1914, in the dank, muddy trenches on the Western Front of the First World War, a remarkable thing happened. It came to be called the Christmas Truce of 1914.
We were all, we were all, we were, we were all friends!
And today we're all brothers
Tonight we're all friends
A moment of peace in a war that never ends
Today we're all brothers
We drink and unite
Now Christmas has arrived and the snow turns the ground white
Hear carols from the trenches
We sing O Holy Night
Our guns laid to rest among snowflakes
A Christmas in the trenches
A Christmas on the front far from home!!

Madness
Oh I remember the Sadness
It’s Football, not Soccer.
Merry Christmas to everyone! A completely unforgettable and remindful truce! ❤
Funfact: on eastern front soliders on one side start singing in polish and they begin to hear other side singing in same languge...
That sounds interesting, can I read somewhere about it?
@@1magine_name its from polish channel Historia Bez Cenzury in some special christmas episode about truces during WW1 in general
@@polishcosmonaut6324 can’t speak polish, but I’ll at least try to watch them. thanks

Merry Christmas to every one. Even in war, humanity prevails
WW2…
Happy holidays to those who celebrate!

It’s called a Christmas truce not holiday truce

Even in war, Christmas can bring people together. I wish everyone a wonderful Christmas Eve

Including Immigrants and Anti-immigrants
Not WW2
Silence
Oh I remember the silence
On a cold winter day
After many months on the battlefield
And we were used to the violence
Then all the cannons went silent
And the snow fell.
Voices sang to me from no man's land...

Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all who celebrate!
Merry Christmas everyone. I hope y'all habe a nice holiday ^^
My favorite part of history
The BBC showed something related to this on a Christmas special (2017) to show that there was a day when both sides decided to have a day where the two would not fight.
This is proof that war is often times meaningless and is perpetuated by the people in power. War is terrible and the day it ends will be humanity’s greatest victory. However, we should never forget nor ignore history or we are doomed to repeat our mistakes.
Feliz navidad a todos,que la pasen bien
Esperemos que todos los soldados que dan todo por su patria puedan regresar a sus tierras,su hogar
Que haiga paz en Israel y Palestina,Ucrania y Rusia
A todos los países con enemigos
Es muy triste saber como soldados dan todo por su país
*La guerra es un lugar donde jóvenes que no se conocen y no se odian se matan entre sí, por la decisión de viejos que se conocen y se odian, pero no se matan*

Fun fact, hitler witnessed this but refused to participate
World is too stupid place.. it is must be true😂
well hitler also wanted to shoot his own troops because theyre trading with the "enemies"
source?
N@zi?

Merry christmas and a happy new year to all British people 🇬🇧🇩🇪
May the german soldiers rest in peace

14 minutes until Christmas (Philippines Time)
Merry Christmas Everybody!🎉❤️
Happy Christmas to everyone!
It's amazing how that many troops came just to celebrate.
It’s not just to celebrate they we’re fighting an active war
Bonsoir et bon Noël.
Habitant près de la forêt sur la carte et près des cimetières anglais qui sont nombreux dans la régions.
Je suis touchée et ému de voir le déroulement de cette bataille.
Merry Christmas!
Happy early Merry Christmas!
Feliz Natal para todos! Que Deus abençoe todos vocês, assim como o querido e sagrado mensageiro Jesus Cristo ✝️🙏🏻
isn't he the same
Your jesus aint real
Sad fun fact:
After the higher divisions of both countries found out about this, they seperated all participating men to different fronts.
beautifull
merry christmas to everyone
what are the white squares supposed to represent?
Soldiers who belong to no faction/Soldiers who are no longer fighting each other
Obviously the white squares represent the Christmas truce in the battlefield
@@JollibeeEnjoyer69 yeah no shit, but specifically
@@Swiftz71the ones that arent on the trenches
The troops crossed lines each way and had Christmas celebrations and meals with each other so the white shows how the troops crossed lines not as enemies but as compatriots towards the season. You see the white squares then going back to their own lines
Happy holidays
what an insane attack that was
Merry Christmas!!! 🇬🇧🇩🇪
Happy holidays god is there
Merry Christmas everyone!
Merry Christmas
im even surprised they can play football, this truce was absoslutely great!
Very nice video
Merry Christmas everyone
imagine world war 1 ended after this
Anyone going to claim their "I watched this within 24 hours after release" ticket? Loved the video per the usual!
Front that it was in: Armentières-Béthune Front in France

merry christmas
Hey, this is not on ur WW1 playlist yet, could you fix that?
0:30 Wait is that Hitler there in the picture? (Because Hitler looked like this and had such a mustache at that time)
There are alot of mustache men in ww1, but i do think it's him
@@user-im4hv1pd5w I don’t specifically mean because of the mustache, but because of his face
maybe
He looks a bit too old to be Hitler. imo he looks about 10 years older than Hitler would have been in 1914.
So it is possible it's him, but I personally doubt it.
Happy holiday
Merry Christmas guys! Ps: what is the name of the music?
Peace to you, earthlings❤
after the truce was over do they just go like: "ok lets kill each other again"
video idea: WWII using google maps (with flags)
Please can you do the battle of the Nile 49 bc and Zama 202 bc🙏🏻?
Accurate
You should see how Canadian troops spent it
Thank you for this😢😢😢😢
We don't celebrate Christmas, but still happy Christmas to y'all
Wow
Those troops, before being german, french or british, they were humans.
what do you use to make this
Mey Christmas to all
Mery Christmas
"ok time's up"
Tearing event. I feel bad for the frontlines that didn't celebrate with the others.
Do british empire using google earth
Yey
Thia is so important
Happy Boxing Day
I remembered that it was thought that it was a myth, but it was true!
Feliz natal a todos, e viva ao nascimento do Messias
The canadians always had to ruin the Christmas truce
Can you please do an updated version of the Gaza war
Still sharing vids.
Did they start fighting afterwards???
Yep, when the flags return to their national colour, that indicates when they went back to their trenches, what surprised me is that in some sections the truce lasted for 6 whole days
1 flag = ~1,000 soldiers
As an Englishman, I love my German brothers and sisters. We are a very similar people (Anglo-Saxon heritage). We should have fought together, 1914.
Name place?
Christmas truce is the reason why germany lost the war
In one hour gang
Why there is no belgian and french flag ?
Because they were present
This might be on the British Side.
White means brothers❤
Merry Catholic Christmas everyone!

Hi
13rd comment!
Britain was occupying Sudan, my country, as is the case in the rest of the African countries, and everything that is happening now in Sudan in terms of destruction and the flow of innocent blood, I blame Britain because it is the one who created this.
How were the British losing people? 😂
Because they weren't getting anymore reinforcements
War the Germany empire
🇬🇧🤝🇩🇪 no more family wars
Merry Christmas
