Battle of New Orleans 1815 - War of 1812 DOCUMENTARY

- In celebration of Canada Day on July 1, and the US independence day on July 4.
Although the War of 1812 ended with no territorial or political changes, it is widely considered decisive for the course of the history of North America. The United States faced one of the best armies in the world - the forces of the United Kingdom and managed to defend its territory, and took the first steps in becoming a global power. Meanwhile, for Canada, this conflict was definitive in terms of finding its identity. The most critical battle of this war happened after the peace treaty was signed. During the battle of New Orleans fought in 1815, the future president of US Andrew Jackson led his ragtag undisciplined ragtag force against the world’s strongest military.

Did you know that the last veteran of this war died in 1905. They had a parade for his funeral. The parade included veterans from all the past wars that America had been in. The video is up on you tube.
That is a fun fact, thanks!
C Rock what was his age when he died?
Thanks alot for sharing this man. We shouldn't forget people like that
@Tracchofyre That was fighting age back then, our history of using what are today considered child soldiers is not often talked about but was quite common.
@@MrMattumbo Mexico used child soldiers to defend their Capital from the Americans in the Mexican-American war. People often forget that young boys were often in battle and the factories as well.

Broken Sol how’s your American colonies?
How about that Pax Americana. Oh, and your welcome with that whole u-boat thing. You know you guys would be speaking German today if it wasn’t for us. It was a great time ordering your countrymen around, and using them as shields. We have a nickname for Montgomery in America “General Shield”. So, thankz I guess chap. 😃
Calm down with the hate chaps, were all English speaking gentlemen no need for vulgarity. I mean, it's not like we're ruuskies am I right? Ha ha ha

Dear Kings and Generals, I am a History teacher in Canada who teaches these topics to young 12 and 13 year olds. I have been following this channel for a while. Thank you for you doing this episode and that you will continue to cover American and Canadian History. This video was excellently done and covers the war from a broader perspective, something my current resources are lacking. Thank you!
Thank you for choosing one of the most honorable professions out there. One of our goals is to present history broadly and become a gateway for more learning.
Michael Courtemanche m
Maybe you could show this to your students?
Your presentation is the best I've come across (barring a few of my history professors that is) when it comes to military conflicts. I'm thankful you guys spend more time on build up, the battles themselves, and the tactics used since most professors never cover any of those good juicy details. It's often overlooked in mainstream Academia and I'm really glad someone else is willing to do the research for these things too! Truly is a great outlet for those of us who are sick to death of only learning about the society/art/institution side of history!
@Demiclea "French Canadians" Oof, you're taIking about the Acadiens, you're going to deep for being foIIowed
UA-cam is jus crazy with this whole demonetization, You guys put a lot of work into this videos and You deserve to get paid.
Agreed. :-)
Demonetized, why?
Because the globalist hate everything America stands for.
Very true. People are being demonetized for having swastikas and confederate flags in their videos when clearly they’re used for educational purpose.
Cody from AlternateHistoryHub replaced the Nazi swastika with UA-cam play button in his videos for a reason.
My favorite quote about the War of 1812 is "The Canadians are certain they won the War of 1812, the Americans are pretty sure they won, and the British have forgotten it ever happened." But I can't remember who said it.
@@TheWolverine01 i disagree, the war was more of a Stalemate or a Status Quo Ante Bellum. This is because the war's goal for the Untied States was not the annexation of Canada, despite what Canadian Nationalists may tell you. The actual objective reason for the war was for neutral maritime routes for the US, for the UK to repeal its naval restrictions, for the end of seizure American ships and merchants in the waters around the US, and of course for National Glory. The United States largely got what they wanted from this war, the only exception being maybe National Glory, which you could also argue was reached from the Star Spangled Banner being made, and battles such as the Battle of Baltimore/Ft. McHenry and the Battle of New Orleans. Not to mention the defeat of Tecumseh and also the Creeks, and the annexation of West Florida. However the reason this is a stalemate and not an American victory is because the UK largely got what they wanted too. They kept their American colonies (Canada now) and the US really didn't take anything from them in general. This is why (unbiased) historians call it a Stalemate/Status Quo Ante Bellum, because it is one.
I think Cody for Alt-History Hub said something like that
@@TheWolverine01 and that Detroit is not Canada says quite a bit too, as well as New Orleans not being Canada's warm water port and St Louis not being the British eastern gateway to Oregon (eventually given up)....the fact that the Great Lakes was freely navigated without British patrol squadrons after the war, that there was no more foreign meddling and mischief in the Old Northwest Ohio country....
Both sides and the UK proper had grandiose plans of territorial expansion as a spoil of war.... as this was almost the last great merchantile war in North America (where you must grab land to make wealth).
After 1815 capitalism started to take hold in both the US and eastern Canada. After 1818 in the UK proper. Once economies move towards capitalism then slavery and the capture of land and labor become no longer needed for growing prosperity.
Unfortunately the overlap era takes time. Typically a century.
@@tescomealdeals4613 i totally agree it was a stalemate . i don't hate american .Sorry if i say it badly i am french Canadian (Québec) and don't know how to correctly express myself in english(even more one year ago) . That was a salty comment and it will be removed
@@TheWolverine01 Thank you. Also Quebec is my favorite part of Canada
Well done as always!
Also a fun fact - The successful gunnery and artillery management on Jackson's line was due in large part to the pirates he included in his ragtag army.
Thanks! Yep, there were a few dozen of Baratarian pirates there. :-) Fascinating army.
Jean Lafitte was their leader if i remember correctly. Its sad that he didn't got a place in that video.
@@mordok7987 since he's french, don't expect an englishmen to talk about him, they think it look dirty in their history book
What about the alligators?
@@merleackeret8652 Alligators aren't very useful unless you powder their behinds.
The saddest part of this battle was that the soldiers of the British Army, most especially the 93rd Highlanders, having no orders to advance further or retreat since their superiors were already dead, stood firm in their position until most, if not all of them, were killed by grapeshot from Line Jackson.
Only 285 (-350 depending on which source you believe) Brits died in the battle, the 93rd fielded some 1,100 men however a story that I heard but only from one source says the 93rd as you say just stood there unable to advance and with no orders to retreat, eventually the Americans stunned by what they where seeing simply stopped firing allowing the 93rd to withdraw in good order but severely depleted.
@@Delogros what a numnut move attacking a fortified position!
@@alrh3674 Can't particularly disagree, If you are going to attack it at least make sure the ladders are long enough, the only part of the fortifications where this wasn't a problem was taken by the 95th fairly early in the battle but it didn't lead anywhere so was unable to be exploited.
@@Delogros I seem to remember that the British troupes assigned to carry the ladders were the last to advanced, and so there were no ladders for climbing the parapets.
Too disciplined
Happy Canada Day and happy 4th of July! :-) Happy free agency day, if you are into this stuff. :-) We are thinking about covering more American battles, so, consider sharing this video - that will give us an opportunity to gauge the interest.
Kings and Generals good job mate,you dun good
but brace yourself for the flame war of 2018
F - Always love your quality videos.
Kings and Generals UA-cam is shit !!! Either move to a new platform or open up your own website if you need money The kind of hard work that goes into making these videos deserves it
Because you referred to freed African-Americans as "blacks" and also mentioned the fact that Andrew Jackson utilized slave labor to reinforce his positions. However I believe your cardinal offense was mentioning Andrew Jackson without referring to him as a racist, native-hating war monger- unvarnished looks at our history are no longer allowed. I love your videos but I am very disappointed that such intellectually sound delves into real history are subjected to attempts of such facist censorship and demonetization.
Kings and Generals hell yeah free agency boring so far
”Well in 1814 we took a little trip
Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip
We took a little bacon, we took a little beans,
We fought the bloody British at the town of New Orleans...
We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin' There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago
My dad had that album.
WELL THEY RAN THROUGH THE BRIARS AND THEY RAN THROUGH THE BRAMBLES AND THEY RAN THROUGH THE BUSHES WHERE A RABBIT WOULDN'T GO
THEY RAN SO FAST THE HOUNDS COULDN'T CATCH 'EM, DOWN THE MISSISSIPPI TO THE GULF OF MEXICO
Well in nineteen and fiffynine we took a little hike
With our scout master down to lake oneegamite
We took a little pizzia and we took some saurkrauts
And we marched along together till we heard the girl scouts...
Thanks for letting me help out with this one!
You were a pleasure to work with!

Interesting. I have to admit when it comes to wars and battles in Nort America my knowledge is fairly limited. Always nice to learn some new things.
Kamil Szadkowski mine too
Same here, we are also learning. :-)
My siblings say that Histroy is limited and I have no future if I study History but these Engineers, Scienctists and Doctors dont understand that how much brain and time it takes to learn history and theres always something to discover about history
I dont know why in India people only wanna become Engineer, Doctors or Lawyers and when I told my relatives I wanna persue my career in History they said we care for your future and we wont let you beg for money after graduating in History
But in America i guess History is highly respected so are Historians
Only thing you need to know is that America kicked everyone's asses. The damn Natives, the damn British, the damn Spanish, the damn French, and the damn Mexicans.
Constable and even their own asses, in the US Civil War
Pirates!
Arrrr
Arrr yrrrr matey!!!!
I think he was referencing the contribution of Jean Lafitte and his Baratarian pirates, both in terms of fighting, and in supplying Jacksons army with arms and munitions, among other supplies.
Yeah, I just realized, you didn’t mention Jean Lafitte and his forces. They helped defend Louisiana as well as the US. They even helped with the cannons! (Apparently, not all pirates were traitors.)
most of the cannoneers in new Orleans were pirates,
shooting a cannon at some Brits matching towards you is much easier than being on a boat, bobbing on the water at another boat bobbing on the water
Being Canadian and a historian, I'm very pleased about this documentary. A little brief, however, all the major parts are there. Nicely done!
Thank you! Maybe, we will make more videos on the topic, we'll see. :-)
Gotta love the War of the 1812, probably one of, if not the most convoluted wars in history
It's nice to cover this battle, Thanks Kings and Generals !
I love Jean Laffite, he was a great french pirate, he and his men fought for the US in this battle.
Thank you!
It’s a good day when Kings and Generals posts a video
Thank you, guys. :-)
The two problems I had with the video were that the War of 1812 was too much to take on in one video, and Tecumseh's confederation was much too far west on the map. It was active mostly around the Great Lakes.
Noted, thanks!
@@KingsandGenerals, true creators of the noted meme
@@thepuffin4050 or it could just be a common phrase?
@@tescomealdeals4613 not really meant to be taken seriously, but whatever floats your boat
@@thepuffin4050 lmao I know... we do a little trolling sometimes ;)
A nit to pick - Oliver Hazard Perry was a naval officer, not a General. He held the naval rank of Captain and the title of Commodore since he commanded a squadron of vessels. The Battle of Lake Erie was a naval battle vital to the American cause and the victory of Perry's force over the Royal Navy made Major General William Henry Harrison's subsequent successes possible.
Anyway, kudos for your work on these videos. Good job.
Thank you!
And what about the Battle of the USS Constitution? Not to mention all the privateers that caused britsh Maritime insurance premiums to increase. One of the major reasons that the British Parliament was willing to negotiate Peace.
Also, the best middle name in American history.
The fact that the Americans got chased out of Canada by the British !! As they were not wanted shows they lost !!!
I come here to quench my thirst of history. They just serve the best here!
Thank you very much!
I was not expecting this battle as an episode but im so glad Kings and Generals made this. The war of 1812 is commonly known as the forgotten war today, but videos on this channel do so well in bringing to light battles and historical figures from the past that deserve more attention in our time. Good on ya guys!
Thanks for watching!
In 1814 we took a lil trip ‘long with Col Jackson down the mighty Mississip 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Tsardom Of Russia’s conquest of the Kazan Khanate soon please! Love the vids btw
It is on the list.
Da! Veeery guuud. Our Tsar made of Steel.
Russian conquest of Kazan don't deserve video tbh. Not saying this because I have Russian and Tatar ancestry but Tatars occupied Moscow for like 8 times but never took control of city. Russians took control of Tatarstan 1 time and annexed all of it. There is a difference between minds of people rather than military victory.
read the Volga Rules, by eric flint.
I am thankful you decided to focus on a time period and battle that greatly influence my personal family's history. In the time period of 1812, we were Kentuckians and they contributed a huge part of infantry forces engaged in all three theaters of the war. British arming and support of native warbands led to the slaughter of many innocent families along the frontier, my own family being among the victims, leaving thousands of orphans. Whilest the wealthy aristocratic bankers of New England profited greatly from trade with Great Britain, those along the frontier and the south were more aware of the hostile aims of British power, were more sympathetic to the French, and sought war as the only solution to stop the raiding since the various native nations often did not recognize paper treaties. My 5th great grandfather was among the precision shooters in many battles with Andrew Jackson's army, participating to a heavy extent in the Creek War and the culminating battle of New Orleans. Later, when Andrew Jackson became President, he personally signed a land grant in Alabama to my ancestor as reward for the exemplary service in his army during those desperate times.
There were some other battles fought around New York, one battle had General Winfield Scott leading a detachment that the British mistook for a militia unit due to their uniform's grey color. Their lines held and the British forces were driven off. There was also a battle at Plattsburg and on Lake Champaign, which were also American victories.
I believe the battle that had Winfield Scott you talked about is the Battle of Chippewa
@@tobytawaqal3678 I believe you're right. It was on an exhibit at West Point Museum and it inspired the uniforms worn at West Point by the cadets. Incidentally it was West Point Museum that has an exhibit of Fredrick the Great including a bust of him.
@@tobytawaqal3678 Sorry the last part of the statement I got confused with another video.
Up until the creation of the national gaurd most counties and large cities would've had volunteer militia units most commonly dressed in Grey. However most county militias had nice uniforms. Usually cities would have a unit nicknamed the Grey's which would be the elite unit.
Love your channel:
Here are some Ideas for more American battles:
1. St. Claire's Defeat - Northwest Indian War - 1791 - Out of 1000 US soldiers, barely more than a dozen survived the biggest Native American victory over US forces in history.
2. Battles of Yorktown - American Revolution - 1781 - Quite dramatic. Very large engagement for the time / place--somewhere in the realm of 30 thousand troops. The French are there in full force as allies as well. There are combined naval and land actions. There's a siege and weeks of bombardment. It's quite dramatic and would make for a good episode I think.
3. Battle of Derne - First Barbary Pirate War - 1805 - Lt. William Eaton and a hand full of US marines lead several hundred Greek mercenaries on a 50-day trek across the desert of North Africa before engaging in a joint naval / land attack on the fortress city of Derne. Lots of heroics, including Eaton rallying his mercenaries and leading them in a head-on charge into the cannons.
Also been to Fort McHenry multiple times. It's a cool place to see and will really inspire you
I need to visit. :-)
Kings and Generals the whole area is nice and a lot of history near by. I can be in Philadelphia or baltimore in 45 minutes, DC and Annapolis are about an hour and a half. My brother in law is actually from Norwich, I'm guessing you're from the U.K. and he loves the history here.
Awesome work on a documentary concerning the War of 1812! I hope that you will cover the Battles of North Point and Lundy Lane soon, as those two had significant consequences for the United States and Canada, respectively. The first was a test of how a surprisingly well-disciplined militia unit could hold its ground against Napoleonic War veterans who had seen many victories during the service while the second was not only the largest battle in Canada fought during the conflict, but it was its most bloody and symbolic for Canadians.
Nice to see a useful side of youtube. I wish more people knew the importance of history and the complexities of it. Thank you.
So glad to see some American battles on here! Keep up the AWESOME WORK!
We will, thank you. :-)
good one my man! quality content! :D
Thank you very much!
A masterpiece: This is why I love this channel! Keep up the excellent work, Kings and Generals!
I absolutely love this channel, many have tried with this content, but only a few are as stringent with accurate information, or even close. Great video as I've come to expect! Keep it up guys!
Great job as always, wish I could help out with patreon, but hopefully soon when I become a history professor myself I can help sponsor this work. Your videos have helped immensely in opening my venues for research as well as being the most entertaining channel to me.
Really happy to hear that! Good luck with your studies and future career! :-)
I live in Cecil county maryland. Elk landing is right down the street from my house, one of the places the British landed during the war of 1812. There are actually a lot of historical areas around here related to the war of 1812. I'm really glad you guys did a video on this near forgotten war
Never ever change this narrator he's so good. Also more ottomans please!
Yep, Devin is great!
Kings and Generals, thanks for all your hard work and great content. Nothing cures a bad day or helps me relax like a new video from you! Please keep up the great work!
I loved this episode, one of my ancestors fought under Andrew Jackson and even married another ancestor from the Choctaw tribe after. That however was the battle of pensacola. I wold love for you guys to cover that dispute with spain pleasssee
I was completely surprised seeing a battle from the War of 1812 which I feel is one of the wars that people look over in the North American Continent. So this is very interesting. Keep up the good work!!!
Maryland. Best state in the Union. Maryland for life!
Oh man...GREAT idea for a video! You guys rock
I can´t sumarize the joy this channel brings to me. I love Sunday mornigs now.
There is so much work to do in the future for you guys, and you just keep improving. What a time.
Im from south america, and paciently waiting for your research to reach my home. But this material brings so much to me already. I am certain you not only give us a great time, but also inspiration and enthusiasm for the generations to come.
My respect!
Thank you! There will be something that you may find very interesting, very soon. :-)
Thanks for the video! My knowledge of this war was extremly limited, but now I know some important things.
Thanks for watching!
Nice video, K&G! Very interesting and professionally done. The most important thing you do well from ancient to modern history. This is a difficult, no simply, but you cope with it perfectly well
Thank you very much!
I am glad that you will be doing Canadian and US battle vids. This one was great.
I’d say this channel is one of my absolute favorites glad that I’m subscribed!

Thank you for watching and Happy Canada Day!
Philippe Clermont Wait your happy that Jackson kick both British and Canadan ass at New Orleans?
LOL! A good kick in the b**t makes you stronger. Im sure your mama told you that 😃
By the time the battle of new Orlean took place the force were completely composed of english ( i guess i should specify from england) so very few if any Canadian got their but kicked at new Orleans. Canadian ( still mostly french Canadian in Montreal) mostly only defended the island of Montreal, as they still did not like then English very much very few would have actually sought to help them in war. I dosent make for such a good war story for Canada but what can i say.... we have been in few conflict to my knowing. i
From Montreal with love ;)
Philippe Clermont the war was already over when the battle was fought and American never achieved what they set out to do i.e conquer Canada which basically means a strategic defeat
Pretty good summary of the war! Nicely done!
As ever brilliant content! I didn’t know too much about the war of 1812 until now- thanks for the video guys! You do amazing work!
Thanks for watching! :-)
I loved this video about American history and the great role of Jackson.
Thanks for all of these info and details
Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching!
Some of your best work, guys. Well done.

Awesome job and great attention to the detail to historical events and prelude to the battle. Keep up the great work on the content.
Outstanding documentary. Hope to see more American history in the future. Perhaps general Taylor's campaign in Mexico during the Mexican american war?
Thank you! We'll see!
Excellent video as always. I love your content keep it up.
Thanks! Working on the next one as we speak. :-)
This was extremely interesting and informative. Great job as always K&G :)
Thank you very much! :-)
OMG YESSSS!! I've been waiting for US/British/Canadian battles!
Thanks for watching!
If anyone gets the chance to read the biography of Andrew Jackson I highly recommend. He’s one of the most badass people out there
This was a very clear and concise description of the war of 1812. It was interesting and extremely informative. Well done 👏!😎👍💯✌🇨🇦

This a great video. I always wanted to look up this topic but never had the time.
Hope, you learned what you wanted to learn. :-)
Very good video about this war.Create more like this
Thanks, will surely consider!
I’m from NOLA, and I always find it hilarious that a Cesarian esque conqueror led a rag tag bunch of weirdos into a swamp and wrecked the British.
It’s the most New Orleans thing I’ve ever heard of lol
Very nice as always. Good work, Sir!
I looked at the comments and was amazed that a simple video can create so much conversation. I find it helps me fight the cynicism. I am glad that people are moved by history.
Also, If u are going to do War of 1812 Videos I would recommend in my opinion the one of the most important battles in US History, Fort McHenry / Baltimore. Yes I know you showed it in the video but I feel like you should talk more about it in a separate video. But, even if you don't I am fine with it since I like all your video, commentary, and how it goes along in the video even if I don't like the eras/wars like WWII or The Cold War.

At least we're partners now in the modern era. Good video!
Nice video as usual ! But you should have spoken about the "king pirate" Jean Lafitte, who fought on Jackson's side
Thanks! Noted. Unfortunately, not everything can be mentioned.
Excellent history! Thank you, K&G.
Awesome video! Thank you for making this video ~ A Proud Louisianan
Love it, and Empire is such a good Total War game
I remember reading that US started to industrialise after the experiences of 1812 war. Before it, the economic policy was oriented towards exporting raw materials to Europe. It would be nice if you do videos about comparative firepower and industries supporting the war-machine sometime.
Noted, will think about it!
Awesome! I was hoping y'all would do a War of 1812 video
This is awesome...man you just know what I need on weekend...youtube and chill!
Thank you! :-)
Im from Louisiana and we all love Andrew Jackson he’s a real American hero 🇺🇸
There is a big error on the map. Tecumseh was based in the Northeast Territory (Indiana primarily) NOT on the Great Plains. Thanks!
Glad somebody else caught it! Most of Tecumseh's fighting took place in modern-day Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky, territory dominated by the Shawnee, Miami and others. They based his nation on this map in the land of the Sioux, Pawnee, etc, who he was in contact with but received little or no support from. He was a fascinating person; leaders like Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse get all sorts of attention, but if any native leader in history had a real chance of stopping American expansion, it was Tecumseh, who saw the threat for what it was and worked to build an alliance of every nation he could reach. All undone by his brother.
...and then they (his own confederation) assinsated Tecumseh...
@@slugakristov8343 because if you do not know where you have been, you do not know where you are, or where you are going.
Of all the history of the war of 1812 and the life of Tecumseh I've read , which is guit alot , I've never ever read that Tecumseh was kill by his family . Historically he died in the Battle of the Thames !
@@paulthompson5968 any proof for this claim?
excellent more of these wars please not many people knew about the war of 1812 this is a great period in history love this one
thank you for making this. Good work.
In 1814 we took a little trip...
Along with Colonal Jackson down the Might Mississip
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans...
One reason so many generals died was because they wanted to impress the higher ups in Britain and be sent to go fight Napoleon. So they tended to stay close to the frontline and get killed fast.
Interesting, I didn't think about that.
And as it turned out, the US troops didn’t forgot their old tactic of killing the British officers first in battle.
not in this battle Napoleon was already in exile!
I'm not sure that's entirely factual..
@@andre-dx4yw idk maybe they wanted to fight Napoleon in Elba too🤔
Loved this video. Really been digging the focus you have been putting on North American and South American cultures recently.

In my mind. When is comes to orleans, i always remember about joan of ark
Same here. And that will also be covered. :-)
Cool, there are rarely videos about Joan of Arc (maybe because we're unsure of how she really influenced the battles). I'd be glad to see one.
The more I watch your videos, my wishlist keep growing 😂😂😎😎, love your presentation, u make history alive... greetings from 🇮🇳
Thank you, there will be more!
Another great video, well done
Thank you very much!
Too nice video with clear explaining of events thanks for sending
Hate to pick a nit, but you show Tecumseh's territory as too far west. Prophetstown, his 'capitol' was in what is now Indiana, and the bulk of his forces were Miami, Shawnee, and Pottawatomie... concentrated in Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, and Kentucky. That's not to say he didn't draw support from further west, of course. Still Tecumseh himself was Shawnee and *probably* born in what is now Ohio, he was able to rally the tribes of the eastern woodlands, since he was one of them, but your map has him out on the plains... very different cultures there.
Also... no mention of Jean Lafitte?
good points. they also showed France owning Louisiana several years after the Louisiana Purchase
All this video manages to accomplish is to regurgitate a Wikipedia article on UA-cam.
Failing to mention or show the more important campaign in the Champlain Valley in September 1814 shows total ignorance. Victory at Plattsburgh was much more important to ending the war than hearing yet again "the British burn Washington"
New Orleans skyrocketed Jackson's popularity and such a one sided victory was important for making up for poorer showing earlier in the war, Plattsburgh was a much more important campaign at that time.
@@ChamplainValleyRailSnapshots You need a better tone bro. "Shows total ignorance" is not how serious people who share a passion talk to each other.
@@bm359 says the person that just used the term "bro" seriously.

One of the best anthems out there. To be honest I am a fan of anthems in general. :-)
On Canada Day, Kings and Generals happens to make the battle of New Orleans, a famous battle in the war of 1812 which is highly remembered in Canadian history!!!!
It was planned. :-)
Thanks dude!!!!!
This is not covered nearly enough unfortunately. Great video as always, seen this before, I'm just going back through on a history binge rn.
Youre improving every episode you post. Or maybe im just so fanatic of your war history channel👍keep it up

Coffee vs. Tea?
Kings and Generals not a bad idea i guess
Great maple syrup: 2
How about some tacos?
It would be nice to go more in depth about the battles of "the Great Lakes". Zoom in into the battles, which has never been done before. Famous US general Windfield Scott was wounded during that war.
There is the very interesting Niagara frontier battles such as: Queenston Heights, Chippawa, Lundy's Lane
Battles near the Quebec border: Chateauguay, Crysler's farm, Plattsburgh,
That is a good point and we are considering doing more videos on this war.
Kings and Generals take your time for quality videos 👍
Thank you!
I love how non-biased this video is. Brits usually say that the War of 1812 is a footnote that the British won handily. Americans usually say that the war is where the U.S. showed that the Revolutionary War was not a fluke. In reality, the war was probably a draw with a slight edge to the Brits, but the video just gives the facts without a lot of opinion. I love that.
Thanks for watching. Consider sharing. :-)
Lol you are British, I can tell
very nice episode i learned new things by watching it thank you :-)
Thanks for watching!
