Shut up and take my money!
Thanks for this content. It makes me even more excited to play Victoria 3.
Something fun to watch while waiting for the late launch of the game
Did....you just call Prussia the Big Daddy of Germania?....nice
Hey could you do a video about Tay Kufu a Samurai pirate who fought the Conquistadors
"Riots, looting, barricaded streets, all the usual French stuff"
Les facts have been spoken.
Sounds about right
More like revolution stuff.
gave me a chuckle :D
@@Epic0201 It is. That is an underrated way to run a country
I laughed out loud.
Never did I think I’d ever hear Kings and Generals utter “Big Daddy” and play it completely straight
Time stamp?
@@vivofoottheseventh7393 9:00
If you guys wanted to continue hyping up Victoria III, maybe you could do a video on the Secondary Powers like Spain, Two Sicilies (PLEASE), Denmark, or Sweden. I think that would be very interesting to see how the secondary powers faired in the shadow of the Great Powers!
Spain lost the 8th position as a Great Power hehe.
What about the nations heads which were children of Queen Victoria?
Brilliant idea
@@alancristhian7532 Ah...cultured man, you are.
@@alancristhian7532 Victoria I :) 8th position always oscillated between Spain, Ottomans, Netherlands, and Brazil
Really like this type of serious! Historical Geopolitical overlooks and period overviews are hard to come by, so please do this with other times and regions!
Hear hear!
Its a game propaganda.
@@alancristhian7532 propaganda lol, just an ad for a relevant subject to the channel with a popular game that many viewers follow and play, including me. Calm down lol
@@alancristhian7532 propaganda? Do you not know what advertising and sponsorship is lmfao?
@@alancristhian7532 You mean a sponsored video?
2:16 One of the most significant innovations that fueled human connectivity in this era was the invention of the electric telegraph. The impact of the telegraph on global society simply cannot be overstated. For example, the time required exchange of messages between the Britain and India was reduced from six months to a matter of minutes. This made possible central administration of a far-flung territory, both in a governmental, and in a corporate sense. A country like the United States simply could not have functioned as it did, without the telegraph.
K&G ignored the telegraph in the last video as well. 😢
They as well botched explaining the American civil war. Love this channel but as an American civil war historian it was pretty weak when they briefly mentioned it in another Victorian era video
Although the Ottomans were in decline, they were still a very powerful state. Khedivate, on the other hand, can be considered the most powerful state in Africa (before the British came)
yes misir state of empire
They were until we brought them the power of civilization and industrialization. They were go karts. We western powers were a Saturn v rocket.
idk about the most powerful; they couldn't conquer the Ethiopians twice and barely controlled Sudan. They did try to modernize, though, so I guess that's something, but even in that, they failed as it bankrupted the state allowing Europe to gobble up their debt and assets until Britain just took them.
@@franzjoseph1837 Egypt Eyalet was quite powerful, crushing the Ottomans twice in 1831 & 1839, only preventing the latter's collapse thanks to the great powers' intervention (they were scared of a strong Egypt), being easily the most powerful country in the Middle East & Africa from 1820-40. However, its successor, the Khedivate, was indeed much weaker by failing to take Ethiopia.
@@TheAustrianAnimations87 to be honest, Ethiopia was a tough nut to crack even for European colonial powers, such as Italy. Egyptians anyway created their own empire which lasted may be not to long, but longer than Japanese Asian-Pacific empire in XX century for example.
Beautiful series, nothing is better than hearing about an exciting era from the fave channel, supported by the fave game producer
The impact the British had on the world was so big that an entire era was named after their monarch
Not even Ghengis Khan, Caesar, or Alexander got that treatment... Hmm.
@@Deridus This is arguably because the medieval and classical periods featured many distinct great powers that all operated in distinct manners and where change was defined by local means. The Victorian Era can be much more easily defined and grouped because the entire planet was at last truly globalised and interconnected in meaningful ways, via steamships, rail and telegraph thanks to the industrial revolution that originated in the UK (hence Victoria), and where change was mostly influenced, if not by Britain, by Europe. While Victoria was not solely responsible for the change that followed the industrial revolution, it is much easier for historians to use her reign to mark such a colossal paradigm shift in human history
Like most of videos made by K&G team, this is also exquisite one! Cooperation with Paradox is actually a thing that I was expecting sooner.
I mean every time I see your videos like Great Northern War, English Civil War, Protestant wars ext - the urge to sit and play EU4 is impossible to overcome. And vice versa - after playing EU4, I have to see what really happened.
So please continue with fantastic videos!
Thank you, and thanks to Paradox for the sponsorship of this content and for their game of course!
@ 18:35 you are so much correct. That's why we are expecting dozens more videos on the history of the 19th century!!! Very well done once again!
Amazing video, the quality of the animation only gets better everytime!
Britain: Industrial, Military and Colonial Revolutions
France: Social, Colonial and Industrial Revolutions
Germany: Military and Industrial revolutions
Austria: Internal Nationalism Revolutions
Russia: Failure of any king of social, military or economic revolutions
Ottomans: More Internal Nationalism Revolutions
USA: Economic, Industrial,Military and Colonial Revolutions
So many revolutions, maybe Vicky 2 was right all along ...
The Victorian era was a lowkey golden age for the House of Oldenburg :D they surely knew how to run Kingdoms
House of Oldenburg gains/loses throught the ages:
XII Century: Gain Oldenburg
XV: Century: Gain Denmark, Norway, , Schleswig, Holstein, Sweden (twice), lose Sweden
XVI Century: regain Sweden, loose it twice
XVIII Century: They gain Russia
XIX: Gain Greece, loose Schleswig-Holstein (de facto)
XX: Regain Norway, Schleswig, Greece , loose Russia, Oldenburg, Iceland, Greece (twice), Holstein (de jure)
XXI (so far): Gain UK. Projected: Loose Denmark (when the Queen dies)
I never thought I'd ever hear K&G say Big Daddy but I like it 😂
Been waiting for this kind of series, UNREAL how good can one channel be! Bravo!!
Prof. Halil İnalcık's works are of utmost importance for Ottoman historians.
Great books.
Ne alaka?çok random bilgi
@@Polo-rn8ly random? İnalcık Bey hangi dönemin tarihçisi??
Ah yes, the Honorable East India Company. Right up there with the likes of the Humanitarian SS and the Compassionate NKVD
The Most Serene Republic of Venice (pls don't look at our funded raiding of Constantinople)
I think that's the joke. 😂
Edit: K&G replied to this in another comment, apparently that's the official name of the company. Even more of a joke! 😳🤣
Seething
Nope it's not a joke .... We can say he is partially western supporter than the others
@@Theboin He is literally calling it the official name, like he'd call Venice the "Most Serene"
Are you unironically insinuating he is calling the company honorable? This is Kings and Generals, not MonsieurZ
Please more of these videos! It's a perfect backdrop to this great game and gives so much context and understanding to the geopolitics of that period
You have truly outdone yourself with the new artwork and music.
I'm tearing up and I don't even know why 😅
Great informative video as usual, thanks!
Good to see that Orlando Bloom was waving a flag during the 1848 revolution in France lol
Yeah, and young Daniel Day-Lewis was providing covering fire right behind him 😅
That's one hell of a cooperation - I HAVE TO HAVE THIS GAME NOW !
dont buy you will never touching grass again
@@guilhermemarocco757 that's false, I still touch grass after playing ck3. AFTER...
A month of not leaving the house...
@@lukefriesenhahn8186 this game featured in the video is *Victoria 3* I do believe. 😁
Two of my most loved content makers collaborate at last! Awesome ❤
Content makers? Is paradox a content maker?
whz d oder
@@ellidominusser1138 the content of video games. 😁
A manageable number of 39
Gods… is amazing how the HRE didn’t collapsed earlier
It did, in 1798.
@@Palimbacchius To be fair that was mostly Napoleon's doing and the Austrian Emperor saw little reason to keep it around. Though it is still mind-boggling that it lasted as long as it did.
@@Nolaris3 Absolutely. As Voltaire remarked, "Ni saint, ni Romain, ni empire".
Decentralized states are much easier to manage in the context of medieval and early modern societies where centralized government isn't really possible due to the limitations of technology, ethnic diversity, and lesser economic connectivity. Rising national, racial, and ethnic consciousness would have doomed the HRE regardless though it's the fate of all multicultural empires that fail to destroy minority identities.
I LOVE these Paradox documentaries. Fantastic background for the games.
Great video! I would love a more in-depth look at Victorian era, industrialization, revolutions, politics and such. There seams to be a severe lack of great videos on this era.
The artwork in this channel is simply breathtaking.
Hey Kings and Generals. Great video. Can you please cover the Anglo Zulu War and Anglo Boer War? Fascinating subject. Thanks. 😊
Thanks thanks for uploading this! This this is very informative.
Informative, nuanced and amazing narration. Keep up the amazing work!
7:45 I like to imagine those guys in the ¿painting? had a truly crazy life being in multiple revolutions, not just character reutilization by K&G
This is just so well-done. Congratulations
These videos are great doing these era In review kind of videos are a nice change of pace and refreshing to see a mostly positive change to the world
I'm so impressed.
For not only brilliant video as usual, and supposedly wonderful Vicky 3, but also for portraying the global changes unfolding in this era centered around Europe, including perhaps now won't admired parts.
If possible I wanna know about Toucouleur Empire, collapsing China, occupation in South America etc., but that's probably not the point of this video so I'll look it up myself.
Less than half an hour, perfect video to hype me up ^^
I really like this format of videos, comparing them with short resume, it was interesting.
And praise to Victoria III, glad it’s finally there as well !
What a great documentary!
Railways were critical in WWI. The idea that Russia would have caught up in railway production by 1919 was one of the main reasons Germany attacked Russia when it did. Meanwhile the Austro-Hungarian Empire had enormous troop movement problems caused by the fact that their railway system had several different gages (widths) and the empire couldn't be traversed easily. Their troops moved at the speed of a bicycle.
As a all round history fan
It truly feels carthagic watching most of my favorite content creators

Kings and generals - and much more
All come together to enjoy vic 3
carthagic?
@@Hurmeri cathartic
Carthagic is a nice one, thinking of the highly specialized merc army Hannibal fielded. :D
Fantastic video.
I wouldn't mind see another video like this again. Because I enjoyed it a lot.
The artwork is gorgeous
Thanks you very much for this vidéo King and generals
Great stuff, thanks.
Great artwork for an exciting century.
Thanks for another good video
Thank you for this one....
Gros courage à vous depuis 2019 je vous suis
This guy knowing I needed something to watch with Victoria 3!
British East India company was an early example of why corporations should not be given too much power.
Direct British rule over India was an example of why government should not be given too much power.
@@ihl0700677525yeah, both suck, that's why I am an anarchist
Now this is the video game-sponsored content I like to see
Great video! I love the summary of the Great Powers. It wasn't fantasy "all good". Both good and bad were portrayed.
Thank you for video sir
This is a very good video.
This history video is quite detailed.
the art is amazing!
great work thanks
Wow I had more fun in this 20 minute video than I did in 7 hours of Victoria 3
Great overview
God I love everything y’all make.
“All the usual French stuff” the shade yet the truth of it all
Thanks To Fantastic Video.
Great stuff
Gotten as far as the 1830's and I can already hear your voice crack and the tear drop for the end of the Paris commune
If I ever make it I’m taking this channel with me
Dew it!
Quite the interessting scenario mixture between 8:30 and 8:52, while the road signs mark directions: Anhalt-Cothen to the left and Anhalt-Dessau to the right(Saxony), on the background you see on the left a cloudy/... view over Newschwanstein castle(which is located near Fussen, Bavaria) and on the right similar type of view over Hohenzollern castle (which is located near Hechingen, Baden-Wuttemberg). Kinda like a tourism board with 3 parts of Germany
I'm excited to try this game out! Wonder which place I should play as, but as always amazing video!
Would love if you talked in a future video about the first republic in Asia. The Philippines!
The current title has one too many "the" in it.
> Great Powers of the the Victorian Era
lol, thanks!
Good video, but at the 6:15 mark you've got a Union flag w/includes St. Patrick.
I own the Victoria 2 game, and I found it a complex but very rewarding experience. Looking forward to gifting myself the third installment of this series for Christmas. Awesome video, and a great way to set up the mood to play some Victoria games!
I have purchased the game and ready to download and played it tomorrow!!
Love The vid
Honorable is a stretch for the east India company lol
That was the name of the company, I promise. Like, we call WWI "the Great War", not because we think that it was great. :D
@@KingsandGenerals I understand that lol
@@KingsandGenerals Well it was "great" in that it was big not because it was good.
2 - 4 - 6 - 8!
World War I was real great!
Great as in large or immense,
We use it in the pejorative sense!
I believe that the 1800s are my specialty in Macrohistory. I enjoy studying the opening of the Napoleonic Wars to the end of the Colonization of Africa, this would be a great part of history to cover.. any tips from my fellow History buffs?
So fking hyped, just one hour to whait
*I get that a good portion of viewers are from USA, but the rest of the world uses metric, would you be kind enough to show both?*
In little more than a generation, the railroad went from being an innovation to a colossus which spanned from the Atlantic to Pacific coasts. It truly transformed the world!
The perfect thing to get me hyped for Vicky 3's release!
thank you
Good video
i hope you guys can work on Medieval Time like Rajendra Expansion, Srivijaya Empireor Champa Kingdom .
Now this is what I’m talking about brilliant from you guys
imagine having an entire era named after you.
Good . All ways Learn something new on this channel . 👍😊
please make also a video about the small powers in the Victorian era(Spain, the Netherlands, Belgium...)
Cool. Will there be more in this series or did Vicky III's underwhelming debut pour cold water on the project?
Great timing, it should have been 60 minutes long tho so I have something to do one hour before Victoria 3 launch:P
would love to see a video regarding the scandinavian states during this time, since scandinavia seems to always get ignored in most part of european history.
nobody cares buddy
could you also talk about africa in the victorian era
i believe events like the fulani jihads severely overlooked
I love playing Russia and China in Victoria two because they have so much potential because of their massive population, but sadly in real life the more people you have the more inefficient society usually becomes because the government feels like the most valuable part of their nation is disposable if the population is too large.
Unfortunately true...
I have an idea for a future video now i know this comment will probably go unheard but I was thinking about the Campaigns of Scipio Africanus as he is one of the most talented yet underrated Generals throughout all of history ty.
FYI: "Zollverein" literally means Customs Union.
Dude, the Austrian line of the Hapsburgs were not inbred. People need to stop equating what happened in Spain with the line in Austria.
They were too, but maybe not that much like the spanish line. There are family tree analyses which show how inbred nobility was in general compared to average people.
They were not as inbred as the Spanish Habsburgs but Catholic monarchs in general were a lot more inbred than Protestant ones due to lack of options. By this time in history you essentially have Bourbon, Habsburg, Wittelsbach, Albertine Wettin, Savoy, Braganza, Belgian & Viennese Coburgs. Emperor Franz Joseph married his first cousin, his predecessor Ferdinand I only had 4 great-grandparents meaning he was the result of a marriage between double first cousins which led to him not capable of ruling. So they were still very inbred compared to say Queen Victoria who also married her first cousin true, but her ancestry is quite varied because there were just too many Protestant German princesses that one did not need to inbreed all the time
@@armandemmanuelducderichelieu it gets thrown around though as if the Austrian Habsburgs were all doddering and incompetent. In reality the rulers of the 19th and 20th centuries were quite capable statesmen of their time. What's more, the line persists and remains a force in European politics to this day. The rise of Prussia relegated Austria to a lesser power status, but it's not like the French (!) did better against them.
Still cant believe Vicky 3 is actually being release
It is pretty curious how this Era was also the timd in which the main European powers began to develop the diplomatic tensions that would cause WW1 and the end of the Russian, German and Austro-Hungarian empires. In fact, the 1974 miniseries "Fall of the Eagles" depicts the first years of Franz Joseph as emperor and the rise of Otto von Bosmark, showing us how these events would eventually lead to the outbreak of the First World War and the end of the european monarchies
The tension was always there, i don't think this particularly started it. What it did see is perhaps is the failures of "balance of power" diplomacy.
@@Daniel-ih4zh There is also hidden White-tailed Eagle attempting to rise... and it did.
"The Empire of Austria, ruled by the ancient and inbred Habsburg dynasty."
Just had to work that one in, didn't you? 😄
England now has two Elizabethan eras. Maybe a few decades later they will have a second Victorian era?
Great
