@@anon_148 I am referring to their battles against the Prussians before they had to retreat from the Dannevirke and their rearguard actions against the Austrians during said withdrawal. You can also add the actions of the 8th brigade during the battle of Dybbøl to that list.
@@CometTheProto also, Denmark actually won the 1st Schleswig war (1948-1951 German-Condederation + Prussia vs. Denmark). This documentary is about the 2nd war (1964 Austria + Prussia vs. Denmark). I think the Danish politicians got a bit too carried away with that 1st spectacular win.
As a Dane, I can tell you that the battle of Dybbøl is the most famous and infamous battle in Danish history. I am surprised that you haven't covered the battles of Sankelmark, Vejle, and Jasmund, before the battle of Dybbøl, and the battles of Heligoland, Als, and the North Frisian Islands after it.
Yeah its a bit weird how little public awareness/coverage is there despite the fact that we have VERY detailed reports during the same time with the American Civil War. I do suspect some bias is involved there, but also the fact that modern day Germany likes to disassociate itself from it's Prussian past and it certainly didnt help that during WW2 a sizeable amount of the Military Archieve in Potsdam burned down due to allied bombing raids.
@@MajorCoolD Every German learns about this war in school. In Germany it is known. The reason it is not well known internationally is because it was a minor conflict. The Danes never had a chance of winning but atarted the war regardles. The battle and the war is important for Danish and German history but not really that important in world history.
The Thing IS and I dont mean that with Anny disrespect. But Denmark is Not "Important" enough that. Angelo Saxon Histeography is the Most Important in the West.
I lived in Dybbøl, the redouts are on a small hill. Also when Rolf Krake was handed over to Denmark in 1863 it was the first iron clad outside of USA with turning turrets.
Nope, HMS Trusty (1861) had a turret. And before that an impromptu turret ship/monitor had been built during the Crimean War, called the Lady Nancy. In 1863 HMS Prince Albert was also already being built. Unsurprisingly those ships and the Rolf Krake were all designed by Cowper Phipps Coles, the turret inventor, basically. That said, secondary guns had been built in casemate turrets before that time.
A lot of immigration in general and specifically to the US was driven by famines, wars, or other misfortune at home. The Welsh & Scottish in the American South came because of failed attempts at rebelling against the crown. Georgia was a penal colony of the UK. The Irish came because of famine. The German immigration was specifically in the time of German unification. Italians fled poverty in Naples & Sicily.
@@recoil53 of course! It’s why migration to the us is still the same force. I just see this video and similar ones and feel the idea of why the lenzs or the kriesers showed up at the same time and now I am a human
What's most fascinating about this is that 40000 soldiers were deployed in this battle and not even 500 were killed. Really shows the difference between the "old" warfare and the industrial warfare that took place 30 years later
I don't think so. The prussian rifles were more modern (not having to stand up while loading, loading slightly quicker etc.). But they weren't as precise as the danish guns, that were just the standard back then. The prussians had better canons - but more importantly, they had twice as many, and they blasted the redoubts to smithereens for 2,5 months before they stormed them with a 4:1 advantage. AND the prussian soldiers got better and two years longer military education. I really don't think the technology was the most important part of the danish defeat. That's quite a myth.
@@wagnercarvalho1854 12- und 24-Pfünder geriffelte Feldkanonen mit Hinterlader. Sie haben eine Reichweite von 5 Kilometern mit unerhörter Präzision. Halten Sie sich die Ohren zu, meine Herren - der Krach an sich ist tödlich!
Hrolf Krake was good for preventing naval intervention, but for influencing the battle on land, it just didn't have enough firepower, compared to the dozens of guns the Prussians had.
I once pulled a yacht into Sonderborg - and it has a lovely quay on the east Bank. I never knew about Dybbol or the importance of the hill across the Bridge. Shameful.
6:10 can be archaeologically confirmed once came across one of their abandoned positions while detecting and a whole corner of the field was littered with 6pounder canon balls and some canister shot...dozens of the balls still pose a safety hazard in my garden, lying around in groups on flat ground but camouflaged (overgrown) and just waiting for a victim to step on them and do the Hip Breaker version of the Marble Dance....
Would we see a video on the first war? the 3-year wars between 1848-1851. Also if anyone wants to learn more about this battle. Check out Danish Defence Documentaries, they have a documentary about it with English sub
The Danish Prime Minister of this time Was unfortunately a madman. he had spent years in an insane asylum Before he came to politics. it was only because his family was noble He was able to reach that kind of power. After the war him and his family immigrated to Australia Because he was mostly blamed for this entire ordeal. He did return in his later years But didn't really do anything. Regarding our King Christian the 9th. I would personally say he was just at the wrong place at the wrong time. He did very good in the first war when he served in the Danish army. And when it was decided that he was going to be the next king after our previous one died He was put into an extremely tough position. One of the reasons why he asked to join the German states. Was because from a Danish point of view We had lost a lot of territory during the last couple of years. The Napoleonic Wars and now this. So it was seen if they could join the German states it would be more secured and safe. But still to this day king Christian the 9th is still considered a very good king in our history.
Piefke is the nickname Tyrol peoples use to name germans, even those from Bavaria. The austrian TV show called "die Piefke saga" is very funny. Pieke is for the prussian helmet with a point on it.
Can U do a Video of the Battle of United Kingdom vs Denmark when the British Navy Attack all the Neutral Country's that weren't part of the Continental System in Napoleon Wars too sink all the Navy and make sure that Napoleon can make a Navy the can Challenge the British Navy
Love your videos! But I have to correct you. The Danish army had not 20.000 trops left after dannevirke, but over 35.000 men left! But yes 20.000 was sent to Dybbøl, while the the other 15.000 trops, where spread through out jutland and Fyn 👍
Request you cover another topic. As I understand it, actual battles were fought between the purely Prussian Army and the Armies of Saxony and Bavaria separately, before those were folded into the German Imperial Army. I am not sure how or when, and what the Austrian Army was doing at the time. The French lost big diplomatically because those lesser States were mostly Catholic? And thus potential neutrals or allies with the French, had they not been defeated in detail? Please explain all this. Thank you for your excellent presentations so far.
You should have mentioned that Danemark breaked the contract of London.Therefore England did not intervene. And they conquered a part of Holstein, which was part of the old german federation. The last point was the casus belli.
The final and even more catastrophic loss for the Danes was not the actual Battle of Dybbøl, but the ensuing invasion of Als and the destruction of the Danish Army.
Can you imagine what would've happened if Denmark joined the North German confederation? Very cool what if scenario that's for sure. It's a shame the Danish didn't take the deal where they got to keep Northern Schleswig. They would have to wait until after WWI to get it back.
Wrangel and inexperieced? That guy had a military carrer of almost 70 years at this poont. He fought through the entirety of the Napoleonic Wars with distinction and was highly decorated. He was reliefed of his command during the Second Schleswig War, because he was simply to old and slow by this time.
Inexperienced in modern warfare - he still thought in terms of Napoleonic tactics, when the methods and means had shifted towards a different style of warfare. I could have worded that better, apologies.
@@HoH yes. Overaging was a serious problem in the Prussian army mid 19th century. Lots of regimental commanders were well over 60 or even 70 at that time. Even some company level officers were pretty old
Gottfried von Piefke in this war? Ok, i did not see that comming! Little mix of fun facts and urban myth: Supposedly the same Mr. Piefke and a military orchester were at the head of the victory parade the prussians held on austrian territory after the austro-prussian war. And some in the crowd shouted something like "The Piefkes are comming" meaning Piefke and his orchestra. This allegedly stuck with the crowd and they started using the word for "prussians" and later other northern germans. (bavarians rarely got and get this nickname rarely because the distinction often was by language, and the bavarians and most of austria are from the same dialect group) This nickname is stll in use today. Not always and not for everybody, mostly when "there is a need" for a negative word instead of using the word "german". (If for example an austrian football fan for whatever reason watched a match between the german national team and a different team at a World Cup and is of the opinion, that the referee advantaged the germans, he won't say "the referee advantaged the germans" he might say "the referee advantaged the Piefkes") But i think nobody needs to feel bad for them, it's not like they wouldn't have similiar or worse for us😁. And to the pronounciation, you were close the second time you mentioned him. The "ie" in german is a just a long "i" and that means for english speakers it would be closest if they pronounce the name as "Peefke" (the last letter is an e which in german sounds like the "e" in the english words "beg" and "leg" But after this video i start to question if this nickname could not already have originated in this war🤔
5:04 Prussia actually seen and participate in the first schleswig war in 1848 so it's not exactlu half a century that Prussia didn't participate in any interstate conflicts
1848 was a fight of the inhabitans of Schleswig Holstein against the Danish goverment.There were civilians fighting a professional danish army. If Prussia would have joined they would not have lost the war.
many Americans dont even know they fought the Brits in 1776, some think WW2 been in the 1960s.... and some cant find the USA on a map of Africa, because Africa is a country, not a continent! ... i know that the USA isnt in Africa, because i am living north from Africa!
Just imagine a Grosse Deutschland including Austrian empire and Kingdom of Denmarck. And perform a kulture kampf spreading out the minorities in lure of employment and moving in german people in those territory. This germany would have been a beast on its own
the German empire became a industrial power house only minor to the USA before WW1....Made in Germany been invented by the Brits, had bite them in the ass for 140 years now!

Miserable danke politicians with a haughtiness and total lack of sense of reality. In addition, a military leadership that somehow understood the new military technologies and the navy. For example, you didn't want to buy the new breech-loading rifles because you were afraid that the soldiers would spill the ammunition and could shoot too much. The Danish armored ship was not deployed during the storm because they were afraid of and in the middle of it. nor when the Germans crossed over and went ashore at Als. The defeat changed Denmark forever. The loss was too great. The slogan "What is lost outwardly must be gained inwardly" set Denmark's development in motion. Before the war, Danish agriculture was directed against Germany. After the war against England. New technologies within agriculture as well as new ways of organizing caused a major upheaval of everything in Denmark. Denmark withdrew politically and everything that came from outside is of evil. Something that still partially applies. The Danish people's soul still has scars from that defeat. the danke school system komtilog included all children because everyone was needed. And things flourished culturally and have since been called the Danish Golden Age. H.C.Andersen, Søren Kirkegaard The Skagen painters etc. etc. became important elements in creating the new Denmark you could be proud of. The cooperative movement within agriculture and in the labor movement became the beginning of the modern welfare state. And in 1933 a very famous political settlement was concluded with the most important political parties in Denmark; The Kanslergade settlement. It was the start of cooperative democracy. Denmark had chosen a different line than Germany. Because on the same day, Hitler was installed as chancellor.
Small mistake - the 8th brigade actually reached and stormed the mill - on you animation, it looks like the attack came to a halt before the mill was reached. But great video!!
In early 19th century , before 1848, there had been good relations between Denmark and German Federation. And danish Royal Family is basicly german ( House of Oldenburg). If there had been a tolerant leadership of German Federation, it would have been not totally impossible to include Denmark into German Federation.

To hear about our German leadership back then even in situations i‘d oppose now is so disheartening when compared to the spineless vessels we call our officials today … No courage, no consideration of their own people, only concerned about being elected again and gaining more and more powerful positions to further their career.
You mean a leadership that didnt Care for Its citizens and used to Stop Protests by gunning them down? Or the government that lied to Its peole about the reasons behind their wars? No thanks
Then go on and vote your stupid AfD. It won't end different than it did in World War II! The traffic light coalition also has its mistakes but it's for sure better than CDU and AfD!
you have not taken into account the technical differences at all, which was the decisive factor as to why Denmark could not respond again and lost the war so quickly. The Germans had just received breech-loading rifles, while the Danes still had to make do with front-loading guns, and this advantage also affected the canons. The only advantage the Danes had was at sea. but Denmark was later given the opportunity to get it all back during later peace negotiations after the First World War. and again we invented the first machine gun. so yes we could have the answer again. But we chose peace, hoping to live peacefully with our neighbors. but yes, it hurts to be a descendant of Svend Tveskæg, to drive across the border and know that the Germans stole our country. ua-cam.com/video/k5V1mVT_-mg/v-deo.html
@@shiroamakusa8075 I have an ancestor who was mayor of Flensburg, and of course you send German speakers up to live in Schleswig-Holstein who were allowed to vote for the country to be taken to Germany. on top of this my ancestors built Dannevirke. So yes, it has a sentimental value for us in DK.
@@kristianklitgaard1750Still the population of south Slesvig was majority German even before the Prussians gained the land it was a demographic shift started in medieval times. If the danish crown hadn’t pushed for full annexation and integration of German dominated areas into the kingdom the Germans would hardly have had an excuse to invade. Also the argument of Prussia/Germany pushing germans into north and south slesvig to change the demographics is entirely made up by revanchists, it was however true that the German empire tried to assimilate the Danes by having mandatory German schools and German speaking churches which isn’t much better. Altogether we can be happy that the self determination ended up winning in the 1919 elections and both sides respecting and protecting the minorities in their sides after 1949. (Even if one side takes it far more seriously than the other nowadays.)

Denmark withdrew politically and everything that came from outside is of evil. Something that still partially applies. The Danish people's soul still has scars from that defeat.
the danke school system komtilog included all children because everyone was needed. And things flourished culturally and have since been called the Danish Golden Age. H.C.Andersen, Søren Kirkegaard The Skagen painters etc. etc. became important elements in creating the new Denmark you could be proud of.
The cooperative movement within agriculture and in the labor movement became the beginning of the modern welfare state. And in 1933 a very famous political settlement was concluded with the most important political parties in Denmark; The Kanslergade settlement. It was the start of cooperative democracy. Denmark had chosen a different line than Germany. Because on the same day, Hitler was installed as chancellor.

Small mistake - the 8th brigade actually reached and stormed the mill - on you animation, it looks like the attack came to a halt before the mill was reached. But great video!!
Imagine if all of Denmark became part of Germany...
They did 77 years later
In early 19th century , before 1848, there had been good relations between Denmark and German Federation. And danish Royal Family is basicly german ( House of Oldenburg). If there had been a tolerant leadership of German Federation, it would have been not totally impossible to include Denmark into German Federation.
Britain and Russia will not tolerate it
I don't care how much spam World of Warships tries to shove down my throat or if they sponsor every single video in every channel in YT, I'm still NEVER playing their stupid fucking videogames.
And Raid's Law states that any app/product that spends as much time and money in marketing as Raid: Shadow Legends does is either utter garbage, filled with predatory microtransactions or both.
Seems real war not like war game before videos, before videos casulties was 50 something like joke dont tell us 50 person dead ''wars'' real wars like this at least thousand xd
Meanwhile, at this moment, the United States was Continuing to fight its Civil War!
Denmark would have had a far more military campaign if it wasn’t for nationalistic fervour in the capital and lack of political realism

To hear about our German leadership back then even in situations i‘d oppose now is so disheartening when compared to the spineless vessels we call our officials today …
No courage, no consideration of their own people, only concerned about being elected again and gaining more and more powerful positions to further their career.
I feel you. It's like we no longer belong in our own countries.
You mean a leadership that didnt Care for Its citizens and used to Stop Protests by gunning them down? Or the government that lied to Its peole about the reasons behind their wars? No thanks
Then go on and vote your stupid AfD. It won't end different than it did in World War II! The traffic light coalition also has its mistakes but it's for sure better than CDU and AfD!
These videos are good but.. man is your pronouncation of danish names just... very bad i am sorry to say.
bismarck, like fouchet and jp morgan was an agent of the war financiers. despicable role that is.
who were the war financiers?
you have not taken into account the technical differences at all, which was the decisive factor as to why Denmark could not respond again and lost the war so quickly. The Germans had just received breech-loading rifles, while the Danes still had to make do with front-loading guns, and this advantage also affected the canons. The only advantage the Danes had was at sea.
but Denmark was later given the opportunity to get it all back during later peace negotiations after the First World War. and again we invented the first machine gun. so yes we could have the answer again. But we chose peace, hoping to live peacefully with our neighbors. but yes, it hurts to be a descendant of Svend Tveskæg, to drive across the border and know that the Germans stole our country.

Your ancestors started a war over them which they lost. They gambled it away, it wasn't "stolen".
@@shiroamakusa8075 I have an ancestor who was mayor of Flensburg, and of course you send German speakers up to live in Schleswig-Holstein who were allowed to vote for the country to be taken to Germany. on top of this my ancestors built Dannevirke. So yes, it has a sentimental value for us in DK.
@@kristianklitgaard1750Still the population of south Slesvig was majority German even before the Prussians gained the land it was a demographic shift started in medieval times. If the danish crown hadn’t pushed for full annexation and integration of German dominated areas into the kingdom the Germans would hardly have had an excuse to invade.
Also the argument of Prussia/Germany pushing germans into north and south slesvig to change the demographics is entirely made up by revanchists, it was however true that the German empire tried to assimilate the Danes by having mandatory German schools and German speaking churches which isn’t much better.
Altogether we can be happy that the self determination ended up winning in the 1919 elections and both sides respecting and protecting the minorities in their sides after 1949. (Even if one side takes it far more seriously than the other nowadays.)
HAUBITZEN!
