I just read about it, and it gets even more sad. On the peaceful march lead by the priest, the people carried Orthodox Christian Iconography, paintings of the tsar, and sung hymns such as "God save the Tsar". The people and the priest genuinely had positive opinions of the tsar and only wished to be heard out to have the lives improved. It was all met with violence, not even by the tsar. I think the priest survived this, but was murdered by someone else later on.
You seriously need to do a video on the Russo-Japanese War, it is already a ridiculous conflict, and with your ability for storytelling it would be amazing!
19:29 Idk much about biology, but as far as I know Alexei's hemophilia wasn't caused by Nicholas and Alexandra's inbreeding, but because its gene running in Alexandra's family right from Queen Victoria. Her child could've inherited it even if she had married someone from a completely different lineage.
So many creative things in the backgrounds: the fish trophy dancing with a button, Carol f***ing Baskin, this sign is heavy.. you’re absolutely amazing dude, clearly the best youtube channel!
I actually used this video as a source for my hemophilia presentation last year. I went on a tangent about the whole Alexei having hemophilia and Rasputin thing and at the end, I said “Mama Mia, that’s a lot of blood!” Best thing ever.

As an American in school who’s reading animal farm, I find this video great to revisit. The book connects itself to the Russian revolution nicely-time to ace my languge arts class 😊
As a British person who read Animal Farm last year in school I agree, when my teacher asked who knew about the Russian Revolution I answered the most questions.
Literally, I’m recently learning about the Russian Revolution and his story is really sad, I can’t imagine how horrifying it must have been afterwards when people realised even if we protest peacefully it still can’t change. I wish the protest didn’t end like that :(
@@amandac9894 its not sad, rather glorious. Imagine tens of millions of people today revolting against their country government & estabilishing their own
@Spawn Yeah, in short, people came to the monk and complained about the huge earnings of priests (Our Father (an analogue of the pope) accidentally showed a gold watch which costs billions of dollars on one photo, for example) and he could not stand it and recorded an appeal where he offered to publish church expenses and earnings. A couple of days later, as I said, he was deprived of his job. Welcome to motherland.

I heard Alexander II's last words to Nicholas actually were what was in the video. He looked at him all wide-eyed and bloodshot with a heavily scarred face and said "Look at me boy! The people did this to me! And soon, they will do it to you!"
@@shadiafifi54 To be fair from my knowledge Nicholas was never supposed to be Tsar. His older brother was supposed to be but I’m pretty sure he died. So he was never properly educated to be in charge of a whole country. And the revolt was slightly caused by the fact a World war was happening and they were fighting against the germans and Alexandra(his wife) was german and basically being manipulated by Rasputin into thinking she needed him in order for her hemophiliac sons survival.

He's got 3 million subs with less than 20 videos on his channel and always hits #1 on trending when he posts a new video. I think he's definitely getting the recognition.
Let's take a moment and appreciate some small details Oversimplified put into his video because I dont see anyone talk about them. None of them had to be put in but they're quite funny imo 0:36 The conducter has a 420 cap 4:23 All of the people in the pictures except for one are doing the Gopnik Squat. 4:48 One of the sample tattoos in the background is a flying pig. This is a reference to a joke Oversimplified made in his Henry VIII Video about his generous spendings in his early years on the throne 5:28 The lower person of the two depicted ones on the left pillar is Spaghetti Jeff who was introduced in the "War of the Bucket" Video. In Bologna he apparently was merely a candidate for the post of mayor but in Russia they seem to have found some liking in his teachings 5:44 This is my favourite one so far. On the left side of the crowd, there is a Wally (from Where's Wally). 6:16 There's some dude lying on the rooftop of this shag 7:04 Someone threw an hamburger away 7:11 Two protesters are holding a "This sign is heavy sign" 7:22 There's some Uranium lying behind the left worker 8:13 The two depicted people are Carole Baskin and Joe Exotic from Tiger King who didn't like each other that much, just to put it lightly. For more context watch the show on Netflix. Apart from them there's the Spaghetti-Jeff-Sun and a Unicorn in the background. 10:07 The guy from the show is Big Ed from 90 day fiance and he puts Mayonnaise in his hair... wtf. It's also the same place Henry VIII married his first wife in Oversimplified's Henry VIII video. 11:41 The rat joined the strike lol 13:14 One of the T-Shirts hanging on the clothesline says "uncool" which is a reminder to buy our boy's merchandise! The shirt is visible whenever this background appears 13:16 Nicolas is drinking his milk from a baby bottle and not from a glass. He's probably doing that in the earlier "snuggle-scene" or however you wanna call it as well 17:48 The Economic Downturn is a joke from the Emu War video whereas the Porsche is a joke from the French Revolution Video. 18:15 Stalin's "There is a tax for that" is a reference to the French Revolution and the American Revolution Video. 18:18 The Prison Break is a reference to Read Dead Redemption 2's prison break cut scenes. Also the picture on the wall is probably Marilyn Monroe and 24601 is Jean Valjean's (from "Les Miserables") prison number 19:04 These peasants are eating rats and they're loving it 20:00 The monetisation signs are covering a human pyramid, a set of cards and Rasputin with a rabbit in an hat 20:13 The magazine questions whether our boy or apparently girl Spaghetti Jeff is pregnant
i believe the 18:18 reference is for red dead redemption 2's prison break cutscenes, and its similar to the cutscene where dutch uses dynamite to break you out and says, " you coming, friend?"
Speaking of 10:07... that was a real show iirc. Dude who's holding a jar *really* was using it. ....for hair. As some sort of shampoo... *yeeeah he's weird.*
Some facts about the January 9th (or 22nd) of 1905, or as it called, "the Bloody Sunday" 1 - Nicolai has been told that the people are acting like they are a threat, he did not knew that this was a peaceful protest 2 - some people in the crowd were dressed like it was a big celebration 3 - the guard did only a couple of shots and they meant to just scare people off, so they fired over people's heads, into the trees, but they did not knew, that some kids climbed on that trees to see what's going on, so they were the first victims 4 - the russian cavalry did most of the injuries and killings after the shots stopped, they just rolled the streets and were more violent than they meant to be 5 - Nicolai actually wanted to do something with this, but he was scared that the aristocrats will revolt on him. Many russian Tsars had this phobia for almost a 100 years, since the 1800s, when one of the most controversial tsar of russian empire, Pavel the first, was forced by his own guardsmen, who were aristocrats, to renounce his power. He was always saying "no, no, i will not sign anything". And some of the guardsmen picked up a golden snuffbox, which was on the table in the room of the Winter Palace where the conflict happened, and hit Pavel with it several times until he died, then his son, Alexander the 1st took the throne, he wanted to make peasants free and be a big reformer, but he was scared of his own people, the aristorcrats, because most of them were against the new reforms, because they will loose the cheap workers, which they could sell, loose or win throw gambling, give as a gift, and treat like things.
@@declicitous1763 this whole period starting from the 2nd half of 19th century was depressing to be honest and then came 1920s and everything became even worse) And then came Stalin and everything was really great (because ha-ha, funny jokes about KGB spying on us right now)
the 5th Point sounds extremly interesting. From where do you have this kind of information. like a source or something idk. (my english is not the best im sorry)
The Wars of the Roses, the Spanish Civil War or the founding of the 2nd German Empire would be complicated and interesting topics that need an oversimplification. Just a suggestion, though, do whatever you feel like and continue producing quality content🙂👍
my history exams are coming up, and this is entertaining and helps me learn, i know so much about this and i didnt even read the dang chapter. thanks oversimplified!
"And crazy enough, Rasputin cured him. Possibly by taking him off his doctor-prescribed aspirin." They gave... a hemophiliac... aspirin. Bloody hell indeed.
Rasputin was anti modern medicine and pefered "alt-medicine" like herbal stuff. It was absolutely by accident that he managed to stop, not cure, Alexei's bleeding.
Nahh dawg don't worry, he dropped both punic war vids on the same day last year after a year off. He's got another great vid incoming. This is nothing compared to Samonella
Nicholas didn't want to be Tsar, and definitely wasn't ready for it. All things considered, the man had a good heart. He unfortunately though, inherited a nation that was well behind the times, and the hatred of generations that was aimed at his crown and by extension, him. Even had he taken serious, even miraculous, steps to modernize; I doubt it would have saved him. As was stated "if the people aren't suffering, they won't support a revolution." Revolutionaries always think this way, they _want_ the revolution. Even had Nicholas been ready for his role and made great steps to improve things, Lenin and his revolutionaries would have still tried to agitate and accelerate until the revolution happened anyway

Oversimplified doesn’t upload often, but the amount of detail and effort he puts into his videos deserves way more recognition.
He's got 3 million subs with less than 20 videos on his channel and always hits #1 on trending when he posts a new video.
I think he's definitely getting the recognition.

at least money is not requirement anymore because money doesn't exist on communist utopia
Let's take a moment and appreciate some small details Oversimplified put into his video because I dont see anyone talk about them. None of them had to be put in but they're quite funny imo
0:36 The conducter has a 420 cap
4:23 All of the people in the pictures except for one are doing the Gopnik Squat.
4:48 One of the sample tattoos in the background is a flying pig. This is a reference to a joke Oversimplified made in his Henry VIII Video about his generous spendings in his early years on the throne
5:28 The lower person of the two depicted ones on the left pillar is Spaghetti Jeff who was introduced in the "War of the Bucket" Video. In Bologna he apparently was merely a candidate for the post of mayor but in Russia they seem to have found some liking in his teachings
5:44 This is my favourite one so far. On the left side of the crowd, there is a Wally (from Where's Wally).
6:16 There's some dude lying on the rooftop of this shag
7:04 Someone threw an hamburger away
7:11 Two protesters are holding a "This sign is heavy sign"
7:22 There's some Uranium lying behind the left worker
8:13 The two depicted people are Carole Baskin and Joe Exotic from Tiger King who didn't like each other that much, just to put it lightly. For more context watch the show on Netflix. Apart from them there's the Spaghetti-Jeff-Sun and a Unicorn in the background.
10:07 The guy from the show is Big Ed from 90 day fiance and he puts Mayonnaise in his hair... wtf. It's also the same place Henry VIII married his first wife in Oversimplified's Henry VIII video.
11:41 The rat joined the strike lol
13:14 One of the T-Shirts hanging on the clothesline says "uncool" which is a reminder to buy our boy's merchandise! The shirt is visible whenever this background appears
13:16 Nicolas is drinking his milk from a baby bottle and not from a glass. He's probably doing that in the earlier "snuggle-scene" or however you wanna call it as well
17:48 The Economic Downturn is a joke from the Emu War video whereas the Porsche is a joke from the French Revolution Video.
18:15 Stalin's "There is a tax for that" is a reference to the French Revolution and the American Revolution Video.
18:18 The Prison Break is a reference to Read Dead Redemption 2's prison break cut scenes. Also the picture on the wall is probably Marilyn Monroe and 24601 is Jean Valjean's (from "Les Miserables") prison number
19:04 These peasants are eating rats and they're loving it
20:00 The monetisation signs are covering a human pyramid, a set of cards and Rasputin with a rabbit in an hat
20:13 The magazine questions whether our boy or apparently girl Spaghetti Jeff is pregnant
Guy with mayo is big ed
i believe the 18:18 reference is for red dead redemption 2's prison break cutscenes, and its similar to the cutscene where dutch uses dynamite to break you out and says, " you coming, friend?"
poleytheshroley you can also see a picture of Marilyn Monroe in the Oversimplified style above the toilet at 18:18

Some facts about the January 9th (or 22nd) of 1905, or as it called, "the Bloody Sunday"
1 - Nicolai has been told that the people are acting like they are a threat, he did not knew that this was a peaceful protest
2 - some people in the crowd were dressed like it was a big celebration
3 - the guard did only a couple of shots and they meant to just scare people off, so they fired over people's heads, into the trees, but they did not knew, that some kids climbed on that trees to see what's going on, so they were the first victims
4 - the russian cavalry did most of the injuries and killings after the shots stopped, they just rolled the streets and were more violent than they meant to be
5 - Nicolai actually wanted to do something with this, but he was scared that the aristocrats will revolt on him. Many russian Tsars had this phobia for almost a 100 years, since the 1800s, when one of the most controversial tsar of russian empire, Pavel the first, was forced by his own guardsmen, who were aristocrats, to renounce his power. He was always saying "no, no, i will not sign anything". And some of the guardsmen picked up a golden snuffbox, which was on the table in the room of the Winter Palace where the conflict happened, and hit Pavel with it several times until he died, then his son, Alexander the 1st took the throne, he wanted to make peasants free and be a big reformer, but he was scared of his own people, the aristorcrats, because most of them were against the new reforms, because they will loose the cheap workers, which they could sell, loose or win throw gambling, give as a gift, and treat like things.
That’s… depressing
@@declicitous1763 this whole period starting from the 2nd half of 19th century was depressing to be honest
and then came 1920s and everything became even worse)
And then came Stalin and everything was really great (because ha-ha, funny jokes about KGB spying on us right now)
Was this one of the reasons Alexander I and Napoleon got along? Because they had similar liberal ideals?

Fun fact: Nick II acutally loathed the day he would become tsar so he really hoped Alexander the III would live a VERY VERY long life
Probably didn’t want responsibility in his back until he learned he could do whatever he wanted as dictator getting hungry power ideas
I think when Alexander the lll died, Nick ll hoped it wasn't real when he realized he was going to be Tsar
"I'm having kidney failure" *proceeds to fall over and die"
Nicholas didn't want to be Tsar, and definitely wasn't ready for it.
All things considered, the man had a good heart. He unfortunately though, inherited a nation that was well behind the times, and the hatred of generations that was aimed at his crown and by extension, him.
Even had he taken serious, even miraculous, steps to modernize; I doubt it would have saved him.
As was stated "if the people aren't suffering, they won't support a revolution." Revolutionaries always think this way, they _want_ the revolution.
Even had Nicholas been ready for his role and made great steps to improve things, Lenin and his revolutionaries would have still tried to agitate and accelerate until the revolution happened anyway
