Yay... it's 11:31 pm here in kathmandu nepal. I've just finished the first season few minutes ago. I had decided to watch the 7th part tomorrow now I'll watch both tonight. Goodnight fron the Himalayas.
I legit think this entire series is a gem, it is indeed v v sed that there arent more people that watch this but please please keep making em! Kudos to you (and the entire team!)
Aw. Don't feel sad, I'm doing just fine. I'll keep making videos until I run out of ideas. By then viewers will give me more ideas, I'm sure. Thanks for watching. And it's just me, myself and I. 😉
This level of detail is so important to making the incredibly complicated 80 years' war accessible. Please make videos on other complicated historical conflicts
This is the best history channel on youtube. More than that, this is the best history content that I have had access to: my many, many books on the matter, included. The entire point rests upon the outstanding idea of piecing all the events together in a cohesive narrative, and not relying solely on fragments to somehow make sense of it. I know nothing else about you other than you are an incredible person, with a very acute sense of storytelling. I honestly hope you keep your fantastic work. Thank you.
The Story of the establishment of the Western Christian ( Protesrant Bible believing) nations of the world and the dawn of the Modern Age. Defragged, This is a brilliant rendition and narration of the story!! LOVE your modern phrasing and expressions to capture interest and inject humour and LOVE YOUR PRONUNCIATIONS of the Dutch, Spanish, French and German.names ect!!!
This is the best history channel on youtube! Dit is echt de mooiste documentaire aller tijden ze zouden dit in de bioscopen moeten draaien. Het is echt meesterlijk in elkaar gezet. Ik smeek je blijf gaan maak meer. Ik zou deze documentaire zo kopen in de winkel al was het 200 euro!
Glad your back!! I'm watching Episode 8, but had to send this to thank you for giving the Julian AND Gregorian dates! I've often wondered if I'm commemorating the actual date when I take note of historical events. There's no doubt with you and this is the first time I've ever seen this disambiguation in a documentary...EVER!! Thanks again, and now back the episode. Great work!!
Thanks! I was inspired by an Instagram post to do this. Someone commemorated an Armada battle in July and I thought... Oh right! That's super confusing. Hence.
@@DefraggedHistory I appreciate your flexibility and instincts. Btw, the Armada section worked like a "sub-documentary"; very informative. Can't wait for the next episode!! Good luck!!
This series has been a stunning documentary! Very high quality while being enjoyable and easy to listen to. Thank you for giving us such videos and I can’t wait for more!
I noticed that too, how incredibly fluent these Spanish names are pronounced. I also love how the names or not "translated". It's Felipe, not Philip or Philips, Wilhelm Ludwig not Willem Lodewijk. It adds authenticity, but more than that, it shows that there really were multiple sides to the hole history: a Dutch side, but also Spanish, English, German, not to mention Protestant and Catholic.
I love the content of your channel. So much so that I've been binge-watching all weekend and this entire week!! Your channel is a gem and I like that you cover topics like these ones. Normaly it's always WWI & II, the Roman Empire, Egypt... The topics you cover are harder to find and especially at this level of quality of research and story-telling. I subscribed and wanted to say thanks a lot for all your work and effort, and for sharing it with us! Greetings from Belgium!
I am thoroughly enjoying this series! Thank you for providing hours of very entertaining and (mostly) very accurate information on this truely pivotal era in European history which saw the first true nation state emerge from the chaos.
@@DefraggedHistory Definitely, more competition too, documentary-wise. But refreshing to hear a perspective that speaks of an Anglo-Dutch alliance countering the Armada. Anglo-Saxon perspectives can be...selective.
@@nilsvisser4383 Yes I think you'll find that virtually all countries perspectives can be 'selective' even your own. But one thing that is not selective is that Francis Drake OWNED the Spaniards
Hello! Is there an ETA on the release of the next episode? Also, is there a better place for me to find this information in the future? I'm trying not to be impatient I just love your work so much! Thanks for the amazing history stories, keep it up!!
I'll make community posts from now on once I know the date. Generally I use twitter to keep everyone updated and the website has some information. I can't tell exactly when new videos arrive, since I'm usually still working on them and things can go wrong. Generally though, every three to four weeks after the last one on a Thursday evening CET. Thanks for watching!
Oh, I'm late! So, let give it a gooo! PS: I may have got a sence of reckognition in youtube of your great work and seriuos research. Just go on! And at least: We realy love you! 😍😍🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Google books has scans of a lot of the old ones, and I have a subcription for most of the e-books I used. And then just buying books, sometimes from second-hand book stores.
Ze zouden je een baan moeten geven voor een HBO serie hierover. Zeer meeslepend verteld. Ik snap alleen niet waarom t algoritme je niet eerder aanbeveelde. Ben wel heel nieuwsgierig waar die mooie tekeningen in je serie vandaan komen zodat ik kan googelen of ze er een boek van verkopen. Geef je ook lezingen?
Life in those days was short, brutal and violent.. But people had a cause to live, fight and die for. Nowadays the only action you see is on a tv screen or on a game console.. and still people are yakking, complaining and bitching all the time
No, more like Cersei. The only character in the novels that was 100% evil. And in Felipe's case it's mainly because his father, Charles V, saw more potential in Willem van Nassau than in his own son.

@@DefraggedHistory The text is a little unconventional, and therefor very interesting!
Couldn't help myself and started binge watching!
@@dutchman7623 I am binge watching this in England, and learning so much from it! So much respect for the Dutch in this conflict.
@@Bloodknok It is very accurate and presented in such way that you can view them for hours without getting bored.

How does this channel only have 1.97K followers?? This series is absolutely amazing. Keep up the good work. Greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪.

Thank you, that's really sweet. I'm sure I'll get around those topics eventually. 😉
I know!! I can't stop binge watching either! So good!
I am thoroughly enjoying this series! Thank you for providing hours of very entertaining and (mostly) very accurate information on this truely pivotal era in European history which saw the first true nation state emerge from the chaos.
This show is indeed a Great Enterprise! Love it
Oh no! Does that mean I'm going to crash and burn as well? 😉 thanks for watching!
@@DefraggedHistory I’m sure you’ll complete the mission! :)
Hey Guys, you are just way cool. One job that is well done. Congrats, keep up the great work! Alan from Upper Michigan
Great job on the Armada, another fine part to grace a fantastic series.
Thanks Nils. The Armada bit was definitely a challenge, though. Sooo much info out there!
@@DefraggedHistory Definitely, more competition too, documentary-wise. But refreshing to hear a perspective that speaks of an Anglo-Dutch alliance countering the Armada. Anglo-Saxon perspectives can be...selective.
I didn't know about this alliance thing either, until I started studying this. There's so much I didn't know. 🤯

THANK YOU! THANK YOU SO MUCH
I have been waiting for this. Great work.
Thank you for the wonderful video!
Thank you for watching !
Best history documentary that I've ever watched. Well done !!!
Yay a new video! Keep it up you deserve way more attention for your great work
Thank you for watching!
I absolutely LOVE the crazy-creative names for the Chapters and so on. 41:30 "For The Love of God" HAHAHAHAA
Thanks! Chapter titles usually have a double or even quadruple meaning. This is also a Steve Vai song. 😉
@@DefraggedHistory From the album "Passion and Warfare".
Omg just keeps getting better and better cant wait for the next one #defraggedhistory less goo
Je Maintiendrai!!
Your name is "Geuze", seriously? That is fantastic!😅
Great episode as usual!!! What a cliffhanger at the end 😁
Thanks. I am a little mean, am I not? 😉
Wow this had me on the edge of my chair. So much excitement. Can't wait to find out what happened in Breda! Forcing myself not to Google.....😃

I sometimes wonder what my neighbors think when I'm recording these things. 😆
Thanks for watching!

Amazing series so far, human history is... insane.
I love the videos, I watched all of them.

Nice to hear what happend at the north gate aka gevangenepoort, makes you look at it differently each time i walk under it now haha.
24:28 been listng for 4 maybe 6 nights You are wonderful. so happy I found you.
This is a great series. Who needs Game of Thrones.. the real history is more interesting. 👍

Thank you 💖
I get a strange feeling in my pants when my favourite Dutch lady releases a new video 😝😝😝
Are you farting again? 😉
Where do you find all the books for this?
Google books has scans of a lot of the old ones, and I have a subcription for most of the e-books I used. And then just buying books, sometimes from second-hand book stores.

Dank je. De tekeningen zijn van Rijksmuseum Studio. Ik ben (nog) niet uitgenodigd voor lezingen
A very good series...
That cliffhanger in the end should be illegal omg I’m dying. I know I can just google the result but don’t want to spoil myself

2:30
I thought in the 16th century lack of evidence wasn't a problem if a monarch wanted someone out of the way?
Super cool
Estimados muy buen video, sepan que soy chuzno de Adriaen van Bergen
Your family is in this “movie”!! Pretty cool
Who is the narratior?
Idk but she is very good
She sounds like Yvon Jaspers.
The earl had 2 annouce 2 the SG he had 2 bounce...lol this narrator is funny AF
2:56 is that latin?
Yes, it is.
12:15 Don't... please... Stop... come back
She's very funny
The Spanish ships had lots of drawbacks. They had been slow, used old style sea warfare etc.
And the English had more warships. 34 to 24
Felipe was such a nice man...
🎉🎉🎉
Whooo!
I’m Dutch, but u gotta respect king Felipe. He is like Tywin Lannister lol
No, more like Cersei. The only character in the novels that was 100% evil. And in Felipe's case it's mainly because his father, Charles V, saw more potential in Willem van Nassau than in his own son.
@@robhendrikx2198 at least Cersei loved her children, Ramsay Bolton or the goat of harrenhall are even worse haha
@@sit-insforsithis1568 Actually she only "loved" Joffrey. But I'll grant you the bastard of Bolton.😉
@@robhendrikx2198 haha agreed !
Let's goooooooooooo
