@@tomhermens7698 I think the series doesn't necessarily need a Dutch audience to work, and it's got a pretty international audience already, judging by the comments (but indeed lots of Dutchies too)
The amount of work that must go into these episodes is seriously impressive, yet the drama, the history and the story is told amazingly well and not once gets dry or boring. Thats a real skill. Thank you again for another wonderful episode, and the FB posts that are always fascinating, and I highly recommend everyone to go follow the channel page over there...cheers.
OK now you're just showin off. Dang girl you frickin rock. Everytime you upload a new addition to this series I just start the while thing over. You're now an all day event all by yourself. Thanks for the awsome video. I love history and you're by far the best I've found. Please keep going. You always make this coasties day.
Wow! Most sincere compliments for this episode! (And all previous ones!) So many details, events, situations explained. Thanks for all your time, study and efforts!
Absolutely gripping! The best history series on the net, can't wait for the next episode. And your pronunciation of the Spanish and Dutch names is a real pleasure to listen to. (Loved it when you cracked up at one point!)
These episodes are as exciting as any Game of Thrones episode. But what really blows my mind, and it's taken me 13 episodes to realise this, is that every episode is over an hour of very detailed and very compelling storytelling without so much as a single commercial thrown in. How DO you do that?🎉
Thanks for watching! I appreciate it! No ads in the middle is easy, simply don't check the 'mid-roll' ads option in my monetization tab. ;-) Creators (once monetized) can do this. (I spent a lot of time carefully crafting a story that shall not be interrupted to make a few extra bucks.)
I love the way you make your videos and always leave an intrigue with what will happen in the next episode, I don't usually follow long series, much less in English, because my native language is Spanish but this one really got my interest, I can't wait to see more series like this, I think one about the Thirty Years' War would be quite good
The cliff hanger! I have legit refused to look up anymore info. I’m watching and enjoying the history as you post. You are getting better with each video each post. But I love the bloopers soo funny
Jeez imagine being that poor Italian guy just doing guard duty things only to suddenly be whisked into the air and landing right into the enemy camp with only light damage.
Thank you for your great video. 👍👍You put a lot of effort and energy into it, resulting in a top quality story. It is thrilling and entertaining from start till end.
When I saw notification of this episode I was so excited but didn't watch it straight away as I knew I'd suffer waiting for the following episode afterwards. So I had to savour the moment, not watch it and I rewatched the previous episode for the 3rd time. I am so happy to see next episode came out, so I'm watching this one again before watching it. Thank you for your hard work creating these videos. Your doing an excellent job, so enjoying these videos.
This is awesome! I have been waiting for this after just discovering your channel and watching all of the 80 Years war, the Kursk and Batavia series! Thank you for such wonderful work. Cannot wait until the next installment! Kudos to you.
Oh my god so good. Insane intricacies, never ending diplomacy on every level kings to soldiers, fleet battles in asia, trench warfare in oostende everybody making mistakes and loosing control just to get at it again.
Okay so youtube didn't notify my that you uploaded despite the fact I have SMACKED THE SHIT OUTTA THE BELL. So they should've notified me. Regardless another fantastic video and lovely early birthday present can't wait to see the next part hopefully sometime soon!!!
You're welcome. It's no mistake. He was the Captain-General and in charge, along with the States-General, of all military operations everywhere. This will become more clear in the next episode.
I'm quite confused why you didn't highlight Finland at 1:05:01. Finland, along with Svealand and Götaland, was an integral part of the Swedish kingdom and not a colony or a subjugated province of any kind.
It has been 6 months or more since I binge watched previous episodes and I had to search for the channel this time because I did not receive any notifications even though subscribed nor any suggestions in the feed. Strange. May explain why the channel has not taken off.
1:05:00 You forgot to color Finland red. EDIT: Also, I think Skåne, Halland, and Blekinge were a part of Denmark at this time so they should've also been colored red.
That's such a sad end for Francis. I mean, I know it was neccesary, but I agree with Maurits on this one. It was dishonorable and untrustworthy as hell. Pity he couldn't return to cleanse his name.
Kings, yes. Ordinary people shouldn't worry their pretty little heads about those things. And he felt the Dutch (except Maurits) were all "ordinary people". This will become a whole thing in later episodes to the point that he wants to declare war on the Rebels. Stay tuned for that merry-go-round. 😉
zo jammer dat het niet op school wordt geleerd alleen propagenda ww2 gedoe zou zo mooi zijn als jeugd eens leert hoe NL is ontstaan en hoeveel mensen voor ons land hebben opgeofferd en door staan Ik woon in maastricht muren staan er nog steeds en ook de ondergrondse tunnels!
UA-cam. 🙄 Hou de community tab in de gaten, Ik doe altijd een aankondiging. Of volg me op social media (maar da's ook niet alles). Ga er maar vanuit dat er 1x per maand een nieuwe 80YW video komt.
Please answer this important I mean, vital question: how were you able to pronounce 'Bergen op Zoom' exactly like a Dutch native speaker? NO ACCENT WHATSOEVER While for the most part you sound like an actual United Statian!
Why this isn't at least a 50K subscribers channel yet is an absolute mystery to me. I'm sure it'll happen.
Just give it some time.
Should be well over 1million considering where the Dutch have spread.

"Je Maintiendrai" following this masterpiece. Only 48 years to go.
I hope you can do the 30 years war next, this is so good, watched every past episode multiple times

You're very welcome!🧡
Only just started this episode, but welcome back, i look forward to this round.
You again provide an unbiased, very detailed account of the events. Another outstanding achievement, my heartfelt thanks for your work!
And thank you for watching. 🧡
Been waiting for this all summer!
I don't often comment on videos, but your work is top notch. You have me addicted and wanting more with every episode.

I can't imagine how history could be told more brilliantly and compellingly. I bow my head in admiration!
If you are thinking of merch, anything with Maurits hated field battles, would be delightful

Let's continue 🥰🥳🥳i've missed your soothing voice haha😊
I do throw a little bit of 'angry voice' in there, though, just to keep things interesting.

Star Trek, Orville and Defragged History. BEST. THURSDAY. EVER.
If u watch new star trek u should drink the sea
Great, detailed, lively historical analysis! Better then anything produced on high budget MSM
Jeez imagine being that poor Italian guy just doing guard duty things only to suddenly be whisked into the air and landing right into the enemy camp with only light damage.
wow! no way! i just caught up yesterday haha incredible... this series has changed the way i see the world. great effort, thank you
This is such a great series. I am watching it every day since 2 weeks.
Thank you and thanks for watching 😊
Great presentation! You've been missed! Great to have you back!😄
Your content is lit sister. I have watched all your videos and it kept me well entertained this past months. I am glad your are still posting content.
This channel is deserving of so many more subscribers.
And I'm anxiously waiting for the next blooper video!
God bestaat!!!!!!!!! Just when I rewatched all episodes a second time thank youuuuuu ❤

Thank you for your great video. 👍👍You put a lot of effort and energy into it, resulting in a top quality story. It is thrilling and entertaining from start till end.
I discovered this Chanel today and I absolutely love it. Please go on with this perfect videos
Worth the wait. Blowing a raspberry within perfect context was priceless.

Thanks for wachting and checking out my other videos. Be sure to check out Macbethad, if you haven't already.
Excellent. Thank you for all the effort. Watching now 😊

Love your docs please keep making more
Yes!!!! You made my day
UA-cam has failed me mightily, I just noticed this! Auto thumbs, Ive been waiting for this.
Thank you, this is so good.
Thank you for the wonderful lecture
Great episode
Amazing as always!
Thank you!!
one of the best series
Another great episode!!!
Shaka Shaka Shaka Shaka... And here we go again 🤗🤗🤗🥰😍🥰🤗🤗🤗😚 Shaka Shaka Shaka Shaka.... Welcome back. Welche back,for real! You were so missed
You're so sweet. 🧡
I still say "holy political intrigue batman" when I'm watching the news or somthing.
What a classic series this is
😂😂😂
Glad this is back!
This was awesome. I say screw the algorithm, start a patreon so your fans can keep this channel going no matter what!
This channel will keep going.
Okay so youtube didn't notify my that you uploaded despite the fact I have SMACKED THE SHIT OUTTA THE BELL. So they should've notified me. Regardless another fantastic video and lovely early birthday present can't wait to see the next part hopefully sometime soon!!!
Love your content!
Very well done.
Ambrogio Spinola... what an epic entrance I belive that he liked the war itself more than winning
woohoo you are back!!
1:16:19 is this a mistake? Why/how is Mauritz giving orders in Oostend?
Thank you so much for continuing the series.
The Overall Operational Command (OOC) was the prince
You're welcome.
It's no mistake. He was the Captain-General and in charge, along with the States-General, of all military operations everywhere. This will become more clear in the next episode.
It's nailbiting to see the sub counter rise every day. At this rate you should hit 10k in two weeks orso
why have i never heard of vere
@1:04:22 I'm a tad confused about the "reduce all religions to 3" thing. What is "Peter" in that regard? Is that supposed to be Roman Catholic?
More please!
Let’s do this !!!
R.I.P Elizabeth. Now we will have to deal with those pesky Stuarts for 84 years.

1:05:00 You forgot to color Finland red. EDIT: Also, I think Skåne, Halland, and Blekinge were a part of Denmark at this time so they should've also been colored red.
You are right. I fixed that in later episodes.
Now then, the question is how long can the longest siege of a generations-long war be?
That's such a sad end for Francis. I mean, I know it was neccesary, but I agree with Maurits on this one. It was dishonorable and untrustworthy as hell.
Pity he couldn't return to cleanse his name.
WHOOOOOH!
🤘 Rock on!
Have you ever thought of turning this series in a book or book series?
I have, but it would be a lot of work turning the scripts meant to be heard into books one can read. Maybe one day.
@@DefraggedHistory Maybe.
She’s back! Everyone keep your pants on she’s back!
Just got home.. should sleep.. won't though!
Oh no... I hope you managed to stay awake to the end.
@@DefraggedHistory I didn't! But that only means I have some more left to enjoy today ^^
Hm, I thought James I was known for his intellectual abilities?
Kings, yes. Ordinary people shouldn't worry their pretty little heads about those things. And he felt the Dutch (except Maurits) were all "ordinary people". This will become a whole thing in later episodes to the point that he wants to declare war on the Rebels. Stay tuned for that merry-go-round. 😉
Where is the story of the Dutch fighting the Brits at sea with Micheal de Ruyter and him coming up the Medway destroying the English fleet. Later ???
That's a different war, the Second Anglo-Dutch war in 1667. 😉
@Defragged History long way to wait but I will. Are you in Canada or UK? Very good your work. Hope it pays.
....also Maurits hates field battles and knew nothing, That is all
He still does... and will continue to hate them until the end. 😉
Lerma punished her (the Spanish queen) so severely...
Ahem.
Did he spank her?
This comment reveals a lot about you. 😁
@@DefraggedHistory Yes.
Are you a fan of Oversimplified History too?
:-D

She is Dutch and you can honestly notice that a bit, but her English is indeed very good
@@Raadpensionaris Maybe she has an American parent.
Her enunciation of Spanish names is on point too, even though I'm no expert.
Yes, I'm Dutch. No American parents. 🧡
@@DefraggedHistory Ah. You also have a knack for correctly pronouncing words and names in different languages.
