      @TheaTheGenius 7 років тому +4

      Trueee, I've only recently discovered his channel, and immediately subbed because the content is really amazing. Most 'educational' channels sacrifice accuracy, truth and detail in order to make short, quick 'sensational' videos that will pander to today's five second attention span society who will not sit through anything unless it has explosions, blood, and nudity. I'm really glad this guy isn't one of those view hungry 'Watchmojo' types, and that there are still UA-camrs that make content for content's sake.

    The Lopez War (Paraguay vs 3 Larger Rivals) was a little known conflict. I first read about it and wrote a paper in the late 1960's. Most people know little or nothing of this horrid little chapter of South American war but is one of the most brutal conflicts of modern times. To think of what the Paraguayan forces went through is stomach churning. What devastation...

    • @rubennasser6907
      @rubennasser6907 7 років тому +3

      Both Argentina and Brazil had pretty much plotted their joint attack on Paraguay long before Lopez stupidly started the war, sucked in by their neigbours invasion of Uruguay.
      So you can say this was "the main cause", the cocky leader just provided the spark.

    Top 5 and Top 10 lists are often the bane of youtube, but your vids remain informative, and often contain fairly unknown historical facts, so keep raising the bar! Good stuff. I found oiut that I had Teutonic ancestors in the northern crusades, and at the same time I'm playing the Witcher series. Anyone notice the similarities between the Northern Crusades and the wars going on in the Witcher series? Cool stuff. Also, sorry Baltic States for pwning you guys so hard back then. You got your lands back, and my people lost Koenigsburg forever. Oh welps, just chilling here in Australia now.

    Not many people know that Vlad "The Impaler" was a Romanian general who fought with thousands of his people to kill millions of invading Muslims. People just think of him as a vampire and Dracula. But people seem to not know that because of him the Muslims did not want to continue their advance through Romania and Greece.

      The sources speaks from 40 000 dead ottomans. What was a lot in this age.
      But its true that he win against a larger, better trained and better equipped army.
      But he impaled other christans too. And before his crusade he fight against hungary. He implaed priest and german traders, there were reasons why nobody helped him against the ottomans

    The last topic was chosen perfectly, great thanks to the creator. And still I think that the factor of solid united force creation( duchy of Lithuania) seems a bit overlooked. It took a great effort and knowledge of leaders to not just create opposing force, but to comprise lands of primitive tribes into monolithic country strong enough to resist the enemy. So that's what makes the establishment of lithuanian country unique. Again huge thanks :)

    While the Teutonic Order was pretty much beaten by Poland, it survived by converting to Protestantism and becoming the Duchy of Prussia. When they gained their independence from Poland they became the Kingdom of Prussia and had their great comeback. The dukes and kings of Prussia were the descendants of the last Grand Master and eventually the Emperors of Germany, all the way to World War 1.
    And if you want to imagine the 30 Years War, take any post apocalyptic movie and add swords. Minus zombies, when necessary.

      I don't recall saying any of that, but I'll put it this way: if none of those other excuses to kill each other existed, people would still kill one another over religion just as if they were being dressed in red and blue like you said. Being apologetic to one reason for war doesn't undo or discredit another.

    • @Mikeanglo
      @Mikeanglo 7 років тому +1

      Religion is a bi-product of human nature. A man not wielding it can't convince another man that a killing was justified because god said so, and can't tell a murderer his conscience is clear so long as he repents. I said religion was a tool, not the actual perpetrator.

    • @Mikeanglo
      @Mikeanglo 7 років тому +1

      Wrong on two accounts, buddy. I believe in god. Nothing wrong with that, but organized religion sets precedents for people that on one account tell them not to kill, but forgive them for doing so or even claim to justify it in the name of their god. The crusades and the thirty years war were enabled by christians saying "well, we know our tentants say not to kill...but our brothers can forgive eachother and this slaughter is justified."
      You don't think these sound like men who are being deceived? Confused? On one hand being taught mercy, and then being handed the sword by the church? The deceived never know they're being deceived; they think they're doing the right thing.

      By hit and run tactics, while the TO frequently gave away opportunities to gain upperhands, but finding it dishonourable to do things like suprise attacks. The battle at Tannenburg whas largely lost by Ulrich von Jungingen because of him being just a little to eager to show his über knightliness, while his older brother Konrad in previous decades kicked Lithuanian ass left and right in much the same manner.
      Dont know how the TO made the list though. They where kinda nice compared to much else going on in world history. Like children of dead enemies/heathens being compulsary adopted and put trough school etc.

    • @SuperMrFriendly
      @SuperMrFriendly 7 років тому +1

      Thats why they lost ALL of their Baltic coastline and the size of Holland and Belgium land inwards to combine east-Prussia with allied Latvia. The TO had decades of kicking Lithuanian ass momentum and took ALL the parts they had set their eyes on.
      Lithuania whas a huge land area back then and they could easily retreat in to the rest of it. The TO never had the manpower to endulge in to conquering largely unremarkable and economically unprofitable dangerous woodlands. Not with other powers in their backs and on top of them.
      They rather had crusader tourism of sorts where Euro nobles could go on some raids vs the pagans, but they didnt really try to conquer all of Lithuania when the TO had the momentum.
      And Lithuania only started ass kicking when they converted to Christianity and became the bitch of Poland, giving up their Religion and political independence.
      Not saying Lithuanians where not good fighters. I have lots of respect for them. But knights of that Kind where no joke, the TO had staunch Baltic allied fighters on their side and the administrating and rulership of the TO where one of the best in history(largely based on merits). So all went as expected. Lithuania had no chance when the TO whas trying and on ist height, but in the end lost out against numbers and enemies teaming up.
