pinkpugginz people smell rank now , everytime I go out there’s always someone reeking of excessive perfume . Or unwashed and devoid of deodorant. People just stink
pinkpugginz...you are thinking correctly. You would think if they were filthy in the 17th century they must have been really disgusting in the previous centuries, right? You'd be mistaken, because in the previous centuries, people took great care with their hygiene. Perfume was invented by the French to hide the atrocious body odor from not washing - the 17th century saw a regression in hygiene, because people thought the "Humours" were at fault for diseases not the lack of cleanliness, and not germs (they were "damned" when they got sick)...and forks were invented not for eating, but for scratching their scalps due to lice! Thank goodness we live in these times with soap and hot water!
I've only recently discovered your channel, but my god I've learned a lot since then. I wish you were my teachers when I was still in school! But better learned late than never learned! Thank you!

Little known fact about English-Dutch navy wars: Dutch cannon was better quality and shot further. And the Dutch had superior shipbuilding-, trade- and financing systems. Just one shipment in one ship of the line from Indonesia full of cloves sufficed to finance the whole of the English fleet, and every year there were over 250 of them coming back (Source: Samuel Pepys and, more recently, professor Schama in The Embarrasment of Riches.). The Glorious Revolution that deposed James II brought the English a Dutch king, William III, and he brought along with him the knowhow for ships, cannon, finance, far-flung trade. This made the English golden age possible, which lasted from about 1700 till 1940. It was a clever move by the English: if you can't fight them, join them. This is what they did. They did it in such a clever way that the Dutch faded away in history and the English become a world-dominant power, controlling 25% of all lands and populations. Of course, English long for the old days of yore. Till this day, the English at large have not come to terms with the new reality that they have become a second rate country, after USA, China and Japan, and, soon, after India and the EU. This is an extremely hard grind, especially for people born in families the trust funds of which hail back to exploits in the glorious old hay days, viz. people like Jacob RM, Boris J, and their ilk.

@@chunellemariavictoriaespan8752 or by act of parliament, there was only two legally illegitimate people in the line of succession and they both ruled.
Christian P you are assuming that the monarchy survives and the people don’t rebel over William’s poor work ethics. Can’t see him as an asset to the country.william has all he can do to appear at one public appearance monthly. Can’t see him putting in the work to reign over the whole country and, Kate will be no help to him Kate is obsessed with the children and not public responsibility to the nation. Prince William is a very poor representative of the monarchy. And far too weak to rule. He has never even held a full time job. How can William possibly understand the demands of a whole nation.
4:11 the image is of the painting depicting "The Battle of Rocroi". Has nothing to do with the English Civil Wars. It was fought between the Spanish and the French during the 30 Years War.
I bet all the paintings got burned too. Charles' image is totally revamped too not just the glorious edifaces. But at least they kept the curly black hair. Key words to look up: mudflood and swarthy.
People you better get out from under your rock you are under and realize this ain"t gonna never end good for us. They are all my cousins, but they can not seem to get over the past. If we don't stand against them, this will be our future.
The one thing that I always find surprising about Charles II is that he never managed to have a legitimate child, but at the same time had like 14-15 illegitimate children...some of whose descendants still continue today at the highest echelon of British nobility. Funny...
@@determineddi2044 My Great Grandmother was a Mary Lennox Stewart. I have no idea but will soon with genealogical research. I'm too busy tracing John McGregor's and Robert Cameron's (my Grandfather was both). Are you a Stewart too?
At around 11 minutes, our host forgets she's meant to talk of the son, not of Charles I; Ithought I was watching the wrong episode, that's all! So for enemies, it was divine intervention/retribution when a terrible accident occurred? Louis XIV played the Brits shamefully, because he, Louis, did not honor the Treaty of Dover. Louis messed around with both the English and the Dutch, playing them against each other...
I dunno about black Israelites, but there was a large influx of Jews into Scotland. And it's very easy to see. Some old paintings and pictures from the 1400's-1600's has some Scots looking, surprisingly, Jewish. So, I guess it's true. They have Scottish names, yet look very Jewish.
i love how they have PRESERVED---their history ---the good, the bad, the ugly---warts and all......ALLLLLL the way back to when god said "let there be light." while america is in the process of tearing anything and everything down that IS PART OF HISTORY and labeled it all "offensive...." much in life CAN be offensive----let's do away with life too while we're at it. makes about as much sense. you have to see where you've been to know where your going....maybe nobody has "direction" anymore so....history is no longer needed....we can re-do the mistakes so we can do it allll over again----won't that be fun?
They said he was declared king in 1660. She talked about him being declared king in in 1660, coming back to England and parading through London just before and on his 30th birthday which was in 1660 (there’s even a banner in the picture they show that says 1660). His coronation was in 1661. I didn’t even hear any of them say 1661 at all, I watched that part twice through when I saw this comment because I was curious if they did get it wrong, but I didn’t hear it personally.
Lord how I detest "re-enactments", the plague of modern-day documentaries and the antithesis of what film documentaries are supposed to be. A well-researched and written documentary has no need for them. And the "actors" appearing in these pointless "dramatic scenes" are obviously those who failed at a career in real films.

This is being commented on by Earl Spencer...he’s very knowledgeable and engaging....great voice...

Among the details I find most interesting are Ms. Williams' clothing and hairstyle, which strongly recall MALE dress during the reign of Charles II.
The Stuarts will return to the throne when William is king since Diana was a direct descendant of 2 of Charles II's mistresses.
