Canadian here. This was the first and last war our two countries ever fought against each other: since then, we have been brothers and allies for over 200 years, and now co-maintain the longest undefended border in the world! It was the first war we fought as Canadians, not just British or French or Native warriors. We've fought together against aggressors, invaders, terrorists, and undemocratic oppressive regimes, side-by-side (with only two exceptions) ever since. My father was in the Canadian Army during the Cold War; his father was in the U.S. Army during the Great War. Hooray for our NATO, NORAD, and Anglophone (Five-Eyes) military alliances! Canada & America Forever!! 🇨🇦 X 🇺🇸
Unfortunately, your once great country is now a WOKE hell hole, taken over by a bunch of little dictators like Justin Tredeau! When are you going to take your country back?!
Same here. My father was a Canadian Militia Engineer during the Cold War, and HIS father was a Regimental Sergeant Major in the U.S. Army Artillery.....brothers-in-arms ever since!
🇺🇸 🇬🇧 🇦🇺 🇨🇦 🇳🇿 The English Alliance, and our multilingual allies from NATO and our indigenous warriors: defenders of peace, democracy, and human rights!
Superficial
Its hard to accept oneself, let alone another, whom may believe the world is theirs to keep. The thought alone, will drive one mad, and those around them angry sick, dividing the family over its perception, illness an image, sleepless full of fantasies under influence; a superficial age. Arguing for praise (honor) has no respect an it doesn't accept the responsibilities of its wrongs, but the prize, held noble. Gifts never fill the mind but the hands of those who have them out, but are empty handed ( in need of help), like a fool of bribes from a lobbyist of doors under fire in a labyrinth built for criminals. Waste rolls down hill but it doesn't stop the flood of it nor the flood of water nor protect the hill; the summit climb.

oooo, what fools you all are.
I'm an American and a Wisconsinite and a history buff. I just want to share my thanks to the people of Canada for this content and everything else. My only memory of Canada is on a week-long fishing trip for my grandparents 50th wedding anniversary at Lac Souel (or something to that effect) in Ontario. I was like 11 years old and caught the biggest fish of the entire party that week with a 33 inch Northern Pike.
I still have an old top to a pine tree that I found in the water and have used as a walking stick for many years. My first experience with poker...Great memories.
As an American I enjoy seeing history like this from another perspective.
I agree I'm a huge history junkie,but It is rare to see things from a different perspective
This documentary on 1812 was awesome. I was on the edge of my seat through all of it. Reminded me of my JHS history teacher. MR. Root with the blue suit! What a good man.
My 5th parental great grandfather his name was Charlie C. Woodruffe he fought in this war of 1812 on the British side after the war he was given 50 acre of land in British Guiana where he retire n started a sugar cane plantation and today we still lived on this land.
So cool man. Hope u have access to his personal journal
I’m sorry, but does your family come from Kentucky?
@@goochmcduck4285 no from Québéc and Haiti
@@user-kx7wo6qc7d what an awesome background.

It is so wonderful to hear the Canadian side of this history. As a duel citizen of Canada and the USA, I congratulate PBS for an outstanding presentation.
Absolutely! At a time when many are busy abusing, distorting and spinning history, this is remarkable and refreshing for its balance. Thank you!
I had some Canadian friends in college. At some point, they brought up this war and battles Canadians won. Of course, as an American, I has no idea about any of that side of it. I knew Washington was burned but not much else.
PBS is the PILLAR of News Gathering and a Guardian of American History.
There is a plaque on the Dun Building in downtown Buffalo where i used to work which commemorates the location of Buffalo's first schoolhouse which was burned down during the war of 1812. Built in 1895, and at 10 stories, the Dun Building is considered Buffalo's first "skyscraper"
It was BUILT in 1895 and BURNED DOWN in 1812? 83 YEARS BEFORE IT WAS BUILT????????
Didn't really like history when I was younger but after 50 I just can't get enough. Archeology. Wars Ancient history, Languages etc. Maybe a head injury I suffered at 49 has something to do with this.
im the same way I was self taught through documentaries, and magazines like archaeology, paleontology,ancient history, and now im into the james web space telscope, the universes. I love my lap top computer, but after all the watching on youtube I have wore out a half dozen of them
I believe we aren't meant to learn history at a young age.
Same. I don't know if its the way history is taught or what, but it wasn't very interesting in school. Now, I LOVE history.
I volunteer with a community archeological society, I so enjoy digging not knowing what I could find. Finds are incredibly exciting.
typical
I'm from Texas. It's been a long time since I studied American History.
I appreciate this very fascinating review of the War of 1812.
My 4th great grandfather was W H Harrison's staff officer during War of 1812.
Col. Robert Thompson Gilmore.
After the war he handled much of W H H correspondence, up until elected President.
That’s just a distant ancestor at that point, we all got them. Nothing special to read here folks.
One of my great grandpas (Wallace) fought in this war. He had to walk back home after surviving the war. While walking home and crossing a bridge he was robbed at gunpoint and shot and killed. Story is that he was buried beside that bridge.
I live in Windsor Ontario. General Brock is a local hero here as we as Chief Tecumseh. One of our main roads is Tecumseh road and I went to General Brock elementary school. Definitely not forgotten in this neck of the woods.

Yeah General Brock and Chief Tecumseh met in Amherstburg at Fort Malden and that is where they agreed to help each other out.

It's not well taught in the U.S. guarantee you most Americans don't know that's when the star stangled banner came about and instead think it was the revolutionary War. Most of the 17th and 18th century wars are not taught because of the internal strife that followed, the Civil War period and manifest destiny. It's an American under dog story but they are right about one thing in this, the British sold out what was left of hope for Native Americans. What I don't understand is why the special sympathy for the conquered. It's not typical because history is full of the conquered, the Native Americans conquered each other constantly, it's sad when anyone loses their land but it was normal and people don't have a problem with it elsewhere. Mostly because the records are so long you couldn't possibly name the natives who were conquered. I would wager all of them at one point or another conquered and were conquered.
Thank you for posting this. Nowadays there is too much reality tv on cable and i am glad to watch these type of history shows. I miss the good old days before reality tv took over. Love these types of history shows.
Thank you!
Should have quit TV decades ago.
What a crock. The reason for the War of 1812 was the refusal of the US Gov't to accept the rechartering of the British Crown owned National Bank (1791) - the Second National Bank (1811), which was again rejected by President Andrew Jackson (1831) who's tombstone epitaph reads " I killed the Bank". Jackson was quoted for saying, "You are a den of thieves and vipers, and by God I shall route you out". They killed Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley, and JFK for the same reason. Always Follow the Money.
This isn’t a true story it’s a fictional . This was so stupid it’s almost hilarious.
Even the History channel barely shows any history.
My Great x3 James B. Young was a veteran of this war. This is the first doco I have seen about it, thank you!
I'm 70 y.o. American, always been astute and willing to hear and read, seeking to understand both sides of an argument. This is the first historical record of the subject matter I've been exposed to in my life! Makes me wonder where I've been all my life any way.

IM 74 and I wonder what is going on in America? Not looking good, and I'm not even astute.
Look into the First National Bank of 1791. Who owned it ultimately, and what happened when they tried to recharter the 2nd National Bank in 1811. And again what happened when they tried to recharter the Bank in 1831 under Andrew Jackson and the epitaph on his tombstone.
I live a mile away from a War of 1812 Cemetery. Thank you for preserving history.
Can you believe, I live about 10 miles from the war of 1812 cemetery outside of Buffalo and have never been there? I will make a point to go there before winter. I want to go to my great grandparent's grave (close to there) anyway.
My great grand father was born in 1813. My family lived in N.C. close to the Jacksons. They named my g. grand father after a young officer out of the war. My g.grandfather's name was Andrew Jackson Dunnagan from Hillsboro N.C.. He later went though the cuberlsnd Gap with Daniel Boone went to Tenn.. Patrick Dunnagsn
I lived in Fells Point in Baltimore in the early 90s and the history of that area from that time period was fascinating. Little corner bars that were pubs and meeting places from that time still open. The city was reconstructing the cobblestone streets and people buying and remodeling the homes to the period. I found the history of the area to be very interesting. I would love to go back and see it today, especially after watching this program.
Who won? I should have gone right to end instead of listening to the entirety. I live on a 'indian' reservation. Tecumseh chose the wrong side. When will I learn to avoid the Propaganda Broadcasting System? These federalist democrat authoritarians hate the republic.
😮 1:28 1:28 1:28
its great federal hill especially we stopped by otw to florida the inner harbor has come along way
The Haitian soldier's were the worrior's of that war. Google Joseph savary and the Louisiana war. for more info
One of my best friends fought with 2, 100-year-old flint-lock guns back in 1813. That's a testimony of how slow the technological progress was when it comes to firearms.
I grew up near Baltimore. I could have heard the bombardment of Fort McHenry from my house. A short walk up a nearby hill and I could have seen the bombs bursting in air.
By the time I was 14 I knew the story of the Battle of Baltimore, how important it was in restoring moral after the debacle at Washington. The same men who ran from the British at Bladensburg, held the line east of Baltimore.
Maybe the War of 1812 is little known, but for me it's an important part of our history.
Yup and I went to the same school as harry Potter and im n im now married with hermelijn and have 2 magic dragons that are living in our castle somewhere above a rainbow
@@robertkok3725 wtf?
Bull Run battle field in Manassas was literally ACROSS the road from me when I lived there in early 80s. Too bad I didn't care about anything regarding history then. Seeing how I just graduated highschool and partying was my main concern. I'm actually historical now it's been so long! Miss those Virginia days.
I'd be all over that battlefield if i lived there now.
Cigarettes were 50 cents a pack also in Manassas. Were way cheap.
I have fond memories of Patterson Park. Lived only a few blocks to the North of it.
young direct exposeure to history has a major affect on lifelong historical interests
I remember a old song I use to hear on a jukebox back in the early 80’s when I was just a little kid. The song was called (Battle of New Orleans, in 1814) I was about 5yrs old and I thought it was the catchiest tune ever and played it a thousand times probably. Not knowing anything about that song until I was an adult and seeing this video just reminded me of that.
SAME HERE, except it was when it first came out that I did.
A terrific item. Search here and you'll find it to hear. I did a few weeks ago.
So . . . we both attend the same university! Graduation is at demise!!!
Grew up in N.Falls,ON..at the foot of Lundy's Lane..we always found bits of 'war' in the exposed dirt hill behind Barker St. School...This is by far The Best doc Ive seen aboot 1812! Thank You from far away Denmark!!!
As a child, the American Revolution held my heart- and as i aged, the wars the surrounded it became included: The French and Indian War, The Tripoli Pirate War, and the War of 1812 create a collection of ideas that define a continent for the next 250 years.
Absolute same.
@@b.r.holmes6365Google Joseph savary and the Louisiana war.for information on the Haitian soldier's in that war
The civil war completes the series. The conflict between the slave owner classes and the merchant classes ended in victory for the merchant side. This is why new england wanted to secede from the union at the time of the 1812 war, as it was a slaver's peace.

I went to elementary school at battlefield school. Site of the battle of Lundy's lane in 1814. We used to dig up old flints and musket parts in the field.
That must have been great exploring for that. (shame theyre too preoccupied with phones and computer games now)

The importance of the War of 1812 (which is sometimes underestimated or forgotten) is that it forged two nations in North America that have lived side-by-side and in peace ever since. For both Canada and the United States, the War of 1812 was formative in shaping the national identity of each.
Its biggest effects seem to clearly be the that standing armies might be required. And that identies were formed around a time when the boarders and lines weren’t fully settled. It’s definitely a great identity crises
Indeed, I believe it is the war which inspired the Star Spangled Banner!
@@intercommerce Yes it does, the video explains (from 1:36-1:39) that it was the British attack on Baltimore in September 1814 that inspired the Star Spangled Banner, the music hymn based on an old English drinking song.
@@siroptimistic and the french stayed in the bay to see who would win.. then helped them After the fact! (yes reallly)
also true that it was an old bar song! my father told me that years ago.. and as usual he was right..
@@BEAUTYnIQ Yes, the US anthem even sounds like a drinking song, and you can picture a bunch of people in a bar raising their beer mugs while singing the tune of this old English drinking-song.
Tecumseh was a serious general and was trying to win the whole darn thing himself! Great documentary
And if he’d won, I would not have to put up with ungrateful white immigrants.
I really appreciate info from the historical Canadian perspective. Tecumseh was indeed a brilliant tactician - I loved his simple solution of too few Warriors - just parade them by more than once. Lucky there were so many trees! The disappointing part of this 'War' was the loss of the 'mitten' (Michigan) to the Native Warriors as compensation for their participation . It's the first time I understood our strange blip in our southern border.

Wonderfully interesting and well done doc. I think program's like this should be shown in all schools as a teaching aide. If course somebody will object to black soldiers and first nations losing rights and territories, but I think this has made history come alive 😊😊

I first fell in love with history as a 7 year old, my dad taught history. In high school, my U.S. history teacher was a Canadian by birth and had moved to the U.S. as an adult. His class was so interesting, getting Canada's stories about our Revolution the War of 1812, as well as more modern actions. Am grateful for that education and this documentary was one of the best.
My wonderful history teachers inspired me to get my history teaching certification.
Must be interesting to look at two sides of the coin
😊
I enjoyed this immensely
I bet it was.
I didn't know the truth of 1812 until well into adulthood.
Its when the US tried taking Canada. And was when England really accepted that The US was independent.

Settlers who had lost loved ones in battles with Tecumseh still called him the finest man they had ever known. A warrior no one one would meet in single combat and hope to survive. A brilliant Warchief. A man of singular kindness and compassion. He did not allow torture. Would not harm old people, children or women. I am a student of History and I have never encountered a man as fine as Tecumseh.
We the citizens of Oklahoma are proud of the 39 tribes that live in our state. We have a saying "Whats good for the Tribes is good for Oklahoma". The Shawnee Tribe still thrive within our state.

Glad you phrased that as is not being learned as opposed as to it not being taught. There is a big difference.
Fascinating and useful video. Ty!
Early in the pandemic I taught flute lessons over Zoom to a young woman who lived near Toronto. She enlightened me quite a bit about the Canadian defensive victory in 1812.
The only memory of the War of 1812 from my AP US History course long ago was that the British army had marched over undefended Maryland to burn down the White House. And of course The Star Spangled Banner.
Also, even though I married a young man from Cleveland, OH, I was unaware of the battles there.
I am learning history now. Better to know now than never. 😮
Canadians ENTIRE identity is based on the fact that they are NOT American nor are British. Canadians dont know what they are but they dang sure know what they are not! Canada is the 'white bread' of western nations! they are just kind of there!

Who's Story?
Color of Money State of Address made in USA
Going around in circles ( circuits ), chasing after one another for the color of money, taking chances or welfare through inter-connecting passages , crossroads and Windows (MSN) trying to control the animal in one, from the pit of debt of desire, an emotions in the matrix. $
Dollar, Dollar Bills
Pressing the economics further, less than rich is most in debt, an the back bone of the rich, and the flesh and blood for the animal, All in the name of what, property values. The color of money makes people go wild an adds to its fire. Let me give it to you in other terms, terms you can understand. They cut it like Bolvin coca, Afghani opium and Libyan oil, cut like silver and gold. Lords that have strings tied to the money, an every dollar in its web, hooking the foolish fish in the sea into its financial threshold.
Bending indexes, the color of money, dollars, dollar bills and currencies on a spectrum in a temple dimension, attracting interest . A twenty/eighty cut is knot well/fare, it cuts like a knife, a double edge sword, it gives with one and takes with two, we want face value, the whole in one, par , one over one, knot promises or the color of money, that s blinding you.
" O say can you see," ... the twilight...
Blind and color blind? So cover your eyes, and listen," and listen to your sub conscious maybe you'll learn something" . Its a figment of your imagination that's running wild like a bull, a shift to red , so let me give you the 20/20, the whole 9/1/1 doppler tax free fix, in the city that never sleeps. Its supply and demand. They build it up and take them down , and the penny is losing one for everyone made. The nickel cant hold its weight , but its losing, an its face value is deceiving the public eye, so save what you can .
They cant afford it or don't have it to give away, nor can they make anymore, Its coming from the blood that is spilling from the holes in ones pocket and clothing, and the bodies that are falling. Desire is working ten times harder for ten times less and buying things ten times over exhausting its horns and pleasures. At the end of the sale, and day , after all the hands have taken a pinch out of the dollar , dollar bill, one is paying with the bottom dollar, and by the time it gets home to its family, its taxed for the waste, so save what you can.
Either way I, the self, put it , between the differences , it gives one the sum of the hole, the color of money and the same sum and truth ,the wholesumtruth. Now that the money can be made at home , it does not give one the right to cut it out of a sheet of metal and stamp it with a dye, or (DIO ?), " O, Alice, your the Greatest ", its de-facing the value . " Its not what your country can do for you , but what you can do for your country." " We the people", put our trust in the government, ( each other), to provide honest scales and due process, but those who aren't themselves are favoring one side, one side of the scale, the dark side, even though the wind is not for sale, it gives one direction and shows the way , an only a fool doesn't pay attention to signs, lining its pockets , the holes in its clothing with the blood on its hands. Those who live by it , live by the dollar , dollar bill , fall by it, and those who trust in it, give its power and right over their lives, ( soul) . " O, say can you see"
The only one who cares for a title, is lost and needs to be found, an in need of a personality, the individual, and needed to be served with love and sincerity. The servant , common worker, the confidence and capital from whom has a title paid for, is free of, and develops its independence from a co-dependent sovereign and shadow government. " O say, can you see"... the twilight...
They promise them heaven, a spot in the light an all they can eat, and give them hell for it, leaving them to the wicked , emotional trials and shadows , silhouettes that have no eyes , but still can see. So ," Take down these walls". " Four score and seven"
We were given stripes , color and life , light for a conscious , a lamp of knowledge (law) , a guiding light, and land to harvest. The brave to boycott, pro/test, protest in writing; Declare Independence, and reveal the truth and reap what's sowed. Fear not, " fear only fear it-self ", "we are not left to live under ourselves " , we have been brought to consciousness , life, and Yahweh ( Jah e vah ) (יהוה ) .

There was more to this war than I had been told or imagined. Thanx
What does severSTL mean?
I think of myself as a good person of history. I have got to read about this. Mine is mostly ww2. This was amazing I learned a lot from this. Thank you.
WONDERFUL PIECE OF HISTORY I KNEW I WAS AWOKEN AT MIDNIGHT TO WATCH THIS. THANK YOU. TRIXIE, 86 YEARS OF AGE IN 4 DAYS, , SOUTH AUSTRALIA.
hope your bday was good. stay well
wow, you really see many 86 year olds in the comments. most 86 year olds have no clue what youtube is, nevermind how to leave comments. I hope you had a good birthday trixie, and I hope your 87th in two or three months is a good one too. Here’s to good health.
I have a copy of the muster record of my paternal 4th great-grandfather who served in the War of 1812 with the Kentucky Mounted Militia.
It lists the personal items he brought with him into service including "a saddle, a flintlock rifle, a scalping knife, and a tomahawk."
A "scalping knife"?
Aka = a knife.
Knives have been tools of war for thousands of years. They still are carried by most soldiers today. Why call that mandatory tool of war by a different name? Kissing up to indian victim narratives is that ingrained into you, isn't it?
Were they the ones sent to the River Raisin? I had a 5th great from KY who went, fought, and died at that battle
@@chairmanofthebored8684 let us know when that has any historical significance please?!
I laughed at someone who fell over yesterday... I still laugh now
That's funny how they call it a scalping knifw....r times have changed
I remember studying the war of 1812 in American History class in high school in the early 1950's. It wasn't anything like this. It was sort of "Oh we fought Canada and Britain in the war of 1812". It was treated as more of a small skirmish. The Brits did burn the White House during the war.
And Rolf Harris song of course! 😆 Think we're beginning to find out a lot of history thats been hidden from us. Like more whites were kidnapped from coastal fishing villages (thats men women and children) by the islamic ottomans and back to North Africa Ottoman territory than blacks were ever taken across the atlantic to America. (Yep, kept that from us didnt they?) I learnt that from Dr Thomas Sowell, black American gentleman.
I just remember that song "in 1814 we took a little trip, along with cl Jackson down the mighty mississip.
We took a little beacon & we took a little beans..."
DLB, More specific the White House was abandoned by its tenants who took off from Washington when it seemed the British were arriving. They arrived under Major General Robert Ross who was at that time the youngest general in the army. He was an Irishman educated at Trinity college Dublin.
Because it was short English though they own everything back then
@@ccahill2322 The British also allowed people to leave their homes & take some possessions before they buildings were burned. It was considered good manners. The Americans did the same in Upper Canada.
The Treaty of Ghent might have been signed before the Battle of New Orleans, but it hadn't yet been ratified, so a state of war still existed between Britain and the US when it was fought. The war ended in February 1815, over a month after the battle. Liverpool wrote to Castlereagh to keep up the military pressure till the treaty was ratified because he suspected Madison of planning to sabotage the proceedings (the conflict was widely known in the US by opponents as "Mr Madison's war"). Also, Pakenham had secret orders (which are still extant) to take New Orleans at all costs and to ignore any talk of treaties or armistices. This was actually the smart move on Britain's part because as noted in the video, having New Orleans meant controlling the entire Mississippi river trade, which was the US's commercial aorta. But the long-term strategic aim of taking New Orleans was to nullify the Louisiana Purchase and thus prevent the US from expanding west of the Mississippi (the plan was to return the LA Territory to Spain to restore something of a balance of power on the continent). Since Britain didn't consider Napoleon the legitimate rule of France, they argued that he couldn't have legally sold any French possessions, so in their view, the US had bought stolen goods and they had every right to repossess them. If Britain had won the battle, the history of the US would've played out radically differently.
This is truly an excellent documentary
I live in Waverly Ohio. The heart of the Shawnee. I live right on the Scioto River. Chillicothe has reenactments of the story of Tecumseh. A very popular showing. Chillicothe also has the yearly Feast of the Flowering Moons. 30 mins away is also the legendary Serpent Mound. Lots of History around this area a Ohio Valley. Shawnee State Forest is a beautiful place for hiking and horseback. Especially during the Fall times. Sad that this area has fallen to the Rust Belt issues that include poverty and drug epidemic.
I'm right there with ya, off the Scioto River (not in Waverly, but north of ya)! Ohioans like to talk about the war with Michigan more than the war of 1812, lol. The war humbled us a bit. British burned down our capitol, Canadians held us back. We almost lost our independence all over again because of our arrogance declaring war on Great Britain! We only like to remember the victories; not learning from ALL our triumphs AND mistakes. Oh well. Go bucks! ^_^
Sound very beautiful and I love that you are thinking about the native history in your area!
@@safeysmith6720 I love history. It's the instructions to our future. Whether we decide to learn from our mistakes or not.
Tons of history around the Great Lakes, fought over by British, French, Canadians, Americans, and various Native tribes! Forts galore!
What a crock. The reason for the War of 1812 was the refusal of the US Gov't to accept the rechartering of the British Crown owned National Bank (1791) - the Second National Bank (1811), which was again rejected by President Andrew Jackson (1831) who's tombstone epitaph reads " I killed the Bank". Jackson was quoted for saying, "You are a den of thieves and vipers, and by God I shall route you out". They killed Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley, and JFK for the same reason. Always Follow the Money.
I don't know much about 1812 . But I do know that ww11.
Not only did Canada send her son's to die on distant shores,
But they helped feed us afterwards.
We had nothing.

I heard similar once in a documentary about WW2. Canadians volunteered to fight for their country and they didn't mean Canada...
My great Uncle Hector is buried in WW2 Brookwood Cemetery in your great country. Much love from Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. ❤
as a typical american layperson, this is fascinating. with absolutely no offense intended, to the trivial extent that this war is addressed in our education, it's presented as "then, after the revolutionary war, england kept messing with us, so we tore them up again, USA, USA." i love seeing the broader context and greater detail.
They only tell half of the story. They ignore the fact that the US militias would not invade Canada after being ordered to. New York alone had a State Militia of over 70,000 men and if they would have invaded Canada with the other State Militias that were ordered to, there would be no Canada today.
I don't remember learning anything about this war in school, and I went to school in Michigan just across the river from Canada. Excellent program.
I lived in Maumee Ohio literally across the street (River Road) from Fort Miami's, which overlooked the Maumee River, where the massacre took place (1813). It was an abandoned fort from the early 1790's controlled by the British, (associated with the battle of Fallen Timbers). But in the war of 1812 Fort Meigs was built (Feb,1813) in anticipation of continued British attacks along the Maumee, it was finished by the end of 1813, and not a moment too soon. The fort was impenetrable, as green lumber was used in making it - non-susceptible to fire arrows and it was also built on a bluff overlooking the Maumee River, rapids, the Fort held off a 5-day siege, until reinforcement arrived.
A replica fort is there today in now Perrysburg Ohio, lot of history there.
Hi p.j. Good to hear from a fellow Maumeeian(?) I know the area you lived quite well. There's a good chance we might have even known each other. Great post with one small error. It's Perrysburg...not Perrysville. Named for Oliver Hazard Perry who the vid referenced in taking the great lakes. Thx for the post and your right, the area is steeped in history around the 1800's.

Wade Hampton was a Revolutionary War officer who served with Francis "Swamp Fox" Marion in South Carolina during the war in 1780-1782. His son, Wade II, served with Andrew Jackson at the Battle of New Orleans with distinction. His grandson, Wade Hampton III would be a famous Confederate cavalry officer who served with JEB Stuart.

Awesome documentary, great quality. I have two grandfathers who served in this war. My 4th great grandfather Moses Tucker in 7th mounted regiment ky militia under Micah Taul. Then his father my 5th gg William w. Tucker of adair ky served under John Simpson's unit in john allens rifle regiment ky militia. William was killed at the battle of river raisin in 1813. His captain John simpson was said to have been killed immediately in a British counterattack.
Superficial
Its hard to accept oneself, let alone another, whom may believe the world is theirs to keep. The thought alone, will drive one mad, and those around them angry sick, dividing the family over its perception, illness an image, sleepless full of fantasies under influence; a superficial age. Arguing for praise (honor) has no respect an it doesn't accept the responsibilities of its wrongs, but the prize, held noble. Gifts never fill the mind but the hands of those who have them out, but are empty handed ( in need of help), like a fool of bribes from a lobbyist of doors under fire in a labyrinth built for criminals. Waste rolls down hill but it doesn't stop the flood of it nor the flood of water nor protect the hill; the summit climb.
2 minutes and 30 seconds in and I am convinced this is WELL worth the watch.
Thank you for this exceptionally well-done and even-handed work.
The War of 1812 was so consequential to the future of Canada. I led a bus tour in 2010, mostly Americans, from Niagara Falls to Quebec City, and so many locations along the route were affected by that war, that most Americans knew nothing about. My 3x great grandfather fought in that war in Niagara as a British regular from Ireland. He returned to Ireland after the war and later learned he was entitled to a land grant for his service. He returned to Canada (with two of his brothers) in 1819 and settled in the military settlement of Richmond, Ontario. It was a settlement for War of 1812 veterans amidst total wilderness. This is now part of the City of Ottawa, capital of Canada. The city was founded in 1826 as a direct consequence of the War of 1812, and my ancestors arrived 7 years before the founding of the city, where I still reside, with many of my relatives. The city was founded as a result of building of the Rideau Canal, to provide a safe marine route between Montreal and Kingston on Lake Ontario. The military canal never served its purpose (thankfully) and is now recreational and a UNESCO world heritage site, a 19th century engineering wonder with the locks still operating manually as originally designed.
The NAVY also named ships after Tecumseh a monitor during the Civil war, and a ballistic missile Submarine which was a James Madison class Sub.
Didn't do Tecumseh or the indigenous American Indians much good!

My direct lineage fought in the colonial army of the revolution and the war of 1812. Both men survived.
I pay my respects to Chief Tecumseh every year at his memorial site on the side of the Thames River on Highway 2 (Longwoods Road) just outside of Moraviantown
In 1814 we took a little trip, along with general Jackson down the mighty mississip.
We took a little bacon and took a little beans, and we fought the bloody British at the town of New Orleans...
We fired our guns and the British kept a coming,
Tho there wasn't quite as many as there was a while ago..
We fired once more and they began a running, down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico...
This war is better remembered than we think
Well they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles,
and they ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go.
They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch em,
down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.

I agree... When I came upon this film, I THOUGHT I knew... I was wrong... I thought the War of 1812 was between the British and the French. Sadly, now I learn the Americans invaded Canada and ruined the lives of the Native Indians. Nevertheless, a story of brave men and women on many sides.
There is a place too in America where we remember the War of 1812. Baltimore, Maryland. (Fort McHenry)

I always think of Old fort niagara when War of 1812 comes up. Highly recommend a visit if you're ever in the area.
Excellent Film. Really appreciate that Tecumseh was a big part of the film.:)
He was a big-time Indigenous leader and uniter of native tribes across North America, had he lived and was successful in his aims, the outcome would have likely been much different to this day! Here on Ontario, he has an entire Township named after him, and our hero Sir Isaac Brock was so grateful, he gave him a personally-engraved medallion or something as a present!
I'm very close to old Stoney Creek crazy to think how this war is remembered in Canada and unsettling that the natives after in both Canada and the USA loss so much there culture there land I'm also amazed to hear from so many Americans that don't get the full historical fact of the war of 1812
It's not that we don't get it, our schools don't teach us the true facts. They sugar coat everything and give a poor overview of our historical fuck ups
Canadian here. I live across the lake from you. I think the reason Americans don't all know about it is it was a much bigger deal for us than it was for them. It was a relatively short, small-scale war, where their country was not under threat, unlike the civil war, revolutionary war, or world wars. Plus, they probably downplay it since they lost. Had they won, they'd likely teach it in all the schools, and we'd be US citizens! Instead, the status quo remained unchanged after it was over, so no biggy to them. For us, the birth and salvation of our nation!
Color of Money State of Address made in USA
Going around in circles ( circuits ), chasing after one another for the color of money, taking chances or welfare through inter-connecting passages , crossroads and Windows (MSN) trying to control the animal in one, from the pit of debt of desire, an emotions in the matrix. $
Dollar, Dollar Bills
Pressing the economics further, less than rich is most in debt, an the back bone of the rich, and the flesh and blood for the animal, All in the name of what, property values. The color of money makes people go wild an adds to its fire. Let me give it to you in other terms, terms you can understand. They cut it like Bolvin coca, Afghani opium and Libyan oil, cut like silver and gold. Lords that have strings tied to the money, an every dollar in its web, hooking the foolish fish in the sea into its financial threshold.
Bending indexes, the color of money, dollars, dollar bills and currencies on a spectrum in a temple dimension, attracting interest . A twenty/eighty cut is knot well/fare, it cuts like a knife, a double edge sword, it gives with one and takes with two, we want face value, the whole in one, par , one over one, knot promises or the color of money, that s blinding you.
" O say can you see," ... the twilight...
Blind and color blind? So cover your eyes, and listen," and listen to your sub conscious maybe you'll learn something" . Its a figment of your imagination that's running wild like a bull, a shift to red , so let me give you the 20/20, the whole 9/1/1 doppler tax free fix, in the city that never sleeps. Its supply and demand. They build it up and take them down , and the penny is losing one for everyone made. The nickel cant hold its weight , but its losing, an its face value is deceiving the public eye, so save what you can .
They cant afford it or don't have it to give away, nor can they make anymore, Its coming from the blood that is spilling from the holes in ones pocket and clothing, and the bodies that are falling. Desire is working ten times harder for ten times less and buying things ten times over exhausting its horns and pleasures. At the end of the sale, and day , after all the hands have taken a pinch out of the dollar , dollar bill, one is paying with the bottom dollar, and by the time it gets home to its family, its taxed for the waste, so save what you can.
Either way I, the self, put it , between the differences , it gives one the sum of the hole, the color of money and the same sum and truth ,the wholesumtruth. Now that the money can be made at home , it does not give one the right to cut it out of a sheet of metal and stamp it with a dye, or (DIO ?), " O, Alice, your the Greatest ", its de-facing the value . " Its not what your country can do for you , but what you can do for your country." " We the people", put our trust in the government, ( each other), to provide honest scales and due process, but those who aren't themselves are favoring one side, one side of the scale, the dark side, even though the wind is not for sale, it gives one direction and shows the way , an only a fool doesn't pay attention to signs, lining its pockets , the holes in its clothing with the blood on its hands. Those who live by it , live by the dollar , dollar bill , fall by it, and those who trust in it, give its power and right over their lives, ( soul) . " O, say can you see"
The only one who cares for a title, is lost and needs to be found, an in need of a personality, the individual, and needed to be served with love and sincerity. The servant , common worker, the confidence and capital from whom has a title paid for, is free of, and develops its independence from a co-dependent sovereign and shadow government. " O say, can you see"... the twilight...
They promise them heaven, a spot in the light an all they can eat, and give them hell for it, leaving them to the wicked , emotional trials and shadows , silhouettes that have no eyes , but still can see. So ," Take down these walls". " Four score and seven"
We were given stripes , color and life , light for a conscious , a lamp of knowledge (law) , a guiding light, and land to harvest. The brave to boycott, pro/test, protest in writing; Declare Independence, and reveal the truth and reap what's sowed. Fear not, " fear only fear it-self ", "we are not left to live under ourselves " , we have been brought to consciousness , life, and Yahweh ( Jah e vah ) (יהוה ) . Compose yourselves, bring yourselves together, because no matter how much one celebrates it will not raise the dead, nor bring back those who have passed, and neither free one from the misery and trial its been living.
" O , say can you see..." " The fault is not in the stars , but in ourselves."

This was an interesting, and previously unknown part of the War of 1812. As a youngster I recall being taught about Fort McHenry, and General Andrew Jackson and the Battle of New Orleans ... and living in New Orleans at the time we were taken on field trips to the Chalmette Battlefield - some 15 miles on the outskirts of the City of New Orleans proper. The Canadian etc aspects weren't part of the curriculum.
As one taught in the US public school system, I find this fact-based POV refreshing.

I saw General Brock's coat that he was wearing when he was shot at a traveling exhibition that was at the Halifax Citadel at the time. It said no pictures... BUT I TOOK ONE ANYWAY! I guess the good General Brock's flippant and brazen attitude jumped right into me.
I saw it in the war museum in Ottawa when I was a little kid. He was my hero and I insisted that we see his monument at Queenston Heights when we were on holiday.
I use the War of 1812 as an example of perspective, especially socio-political. It's also useful to show how separated historical events are between groups of people. I watched a CBC documentary back in 2011, and I never knew it was, from my perspective, their version of Independence Day. I was taught US tried annexation but it was fumbled, go-getter hubris.
There was no mention of the battle of Stonington Connecticut. Here, in 1814, the borough of Stonington held off the British fleet under command of admiral Hardy. The borough of Stonington had a small militia and only two cannon yet were victorious
Thanks, prior to watching this account of the War of 1812 , what I had know about it remained vague, but the way in which this narration of the war was parted out, helps instill a finer understaning of events leading up to it, what suceeded them, and how it ended.

Excellent. This small omission: the victorious general at Queenston Heights was Roger Sheaffe. After Brock's foolish death, Sheaffe cautiously waited for forces from nearby forts to arrive, lined them up in a traditional infantry line, and accepted the surrender of the numerically superior but demoralized Americans.
battle of Fort Stephenson 1813, a vastly numerically superior force of 3,300 British soldiers and their Native American allies lose to just 160 US soldiers, the British with a 20-1 numerical advantage lost the battle against the Americans
I always wondered about that too but after listening to a talk about Sheaffe at a history conference it was pointed out that Sheaffe's reputation was soured after retreating from York in 1813 and blowing up the powder magazine in order to cover his army's retreat. It was also mentioned that he was not a charismatic figure like Brock so was not as popular with the men who served under him.
@@larrybarnard4762 Yup. I only mentioned it because everyone talks about Isaac Brock, who got himself shot at Queenston Heights with his enthusiastic bravado; Brock got the statue and the University and so many Brock Streets; and no one mentions Roger Sheaffe, who won at Queenston Heights, with his more traditional approach; and got the ticket home merely because he retreated in the face of 2 to 1 odds at York, and preserved his force.

Tecumseh’s brother Tenskwatawa, had a local Chief named Leatherlips, executed for witchcraft, of all things, about 5 miles north of my home. This Chief was friendly with the local settlers and Tenskwatawa had Chief Roundhead, from up near present day Kenton, Ohio, come down to just north of Columbus and carry the execution out. He hadn’t done himself any favors by not agreeing to unite with Tecumseh and his coalition of tribes. One of Tecumseh’s tomahawks is still on display at Adena-the home of Ohio’s first governor, Thomas Worthington. His name mean’s, roughly, Panther Crossing the Sky as he was born on one of the extremely rare passings of Haley’s comet. He was a giant of a man among men. (Figuratively speaking). What a great video about a chapter in our history that was barely touched upon in MY primary school years-1970-1976. I doubt it is even taught nowadays. (I hope I am wrong about that) but I had to get a BA in early American history to find out more. ❤️✌🏼

Coming from someone who grew up in Michigan didn't appreciate 8th grade History class im 43 and I can comprehend alot better now then I use too when I was a Lil kid! I just love all of these presentations on history I see the press had influence on the war, citizens thought of war much hasn't changed. Lije they said when the Natives whooped ass its pressed a massacre. When white people won it was a great thing ! So I'm sure that has helped many to dislike Natives for many generations I'm sure the same thing happened with Africans justifying the chains and whips I feel if the press could just have been honest yesterday today and tomorrow United States as a country would be nicer!
Interesting that you say " giants" I live up in Kenton Ohio. There's hearsay that Chief Leatherlips and his brother Chief Roundhead we're both part giant. 7-11ft I guess?. Now I'm not saying that I believe that but I do find it interesting nonetheless. Heck, Martin VanBuren an the Seville Ohio giants story is a good one. Anyhow back on point, witchcraft has alot of history in this part of the state. Kenton used to be known as " the most magical town in the world" believe it or not. Back in those days even being a magician was considered witchcraft. The IBM " international brotherhood of magicians" actually started here. I'd like to know the exact type of witchcraft that his brother was guilty of practicing. Anyhow, sorry to blow this reply up just found your comment interesting
The problem with history books is that there written by the ones who say they won. Always remember there are 3 sides to every story.
That means they took our Sailors and made them into their slaves Britain only fought against slavery when it benefited them
No matter the outcome of this war they were brave people defending their way of life. It's been said in Ojibway/Chippewa that Chief Shingwauk of the Garden River Ojiway killed the man who shot General Brock. Near the mouth of the Nottawasaga river Wasaga Beach, Ontario are the remnants of HMS Nancy’s and the battle against three American schooners on August 14th of 1814.
Also missed is the battle at the town now called Chippewa, south of Niagra Falls.The Americans havd brought their cannons acroos at this point and Chippewa Warriors raced to this place and turned them back before they could establish a foothold on the Canadian side.
Superficial
Its hard to accept oneself, let alone another, whom may believe the world is theirs to keep. The thought alone, will drive one mad, and those around them angry sick, dividing the family over its perception, illness an image, sleepless full of fantasies under influence; a superficial age. Arguing for praise (honor) has no respect an it doesn't accept the responsibilities of its wrongs, but the prize, held noble. Gifts never fill the mind but the hands of those who have them out, but are empty handed ( in need of help), like a fool of bribes from a lobbyist of doors under fire in a labyrinth built for criminals. Waste rolls down hill but it doesn't stop the flood of it nor the flood of water nor protect the hill; the summit climb.

Now I know why this history was not taught in school. What a tale! Thank you.
In short not only was it not an overwhelming win for Team USA, but also an embarrassment of not living up to our Declared and Constitutional ideals. As a 2nd generation Mick Veteran who grew up with tales about the evil English, I was awed, enlightened, and actually cheering how wise it was for the English to train freed slaves as British Marines. Never heard that before. Nor before have I heard as much about Tecumseh, and understand exactly why General Sherman's father named this warrior so eponymously.
This is a tale that I will watch many more times and look forward to reading more about.@@davidb271
Our pleasure.
Lastly, I have greatly enjoyed this documentary. Documentaries like this one should be used in schools. It is not a biased presentation which is key! Our public education system is now an unmitigated disastet by design so this documentary should be used in private, charter or parochial schools.
This was a most educational film. I never knew that there was so much about the war of 1812 that I was never taught in school.
Pathetic you only raised $60. But we're all poor! This is why we have taxes (for the Rich).
Yes. I think, because it was so convoluted and confusing, the teachers said to hell with it, "We've got the Revolutionary War and the Civil War, and this one is stuck in between and really didn't amount to much, lets just scan it."
@@irrefudiate Well not really. Keep in mind the Americans pushed the British back to Stoney Creek. The British pushed the Americans back to the White House and burned it down. You can still see the scorch marks on the current White House. And yet somehow, America claimed a victory?
Likely you are American? It's taught in all Canadian schools, as it was a far more important event to us than to the US. It was a very short, half-hearted war of little significance, compared to the American Revolution, Civil War, and the World Wars. Plus, they lost this one, so your education system probably doesn't like to talk about it much!🙂
@@intercommerce Yes, this is certainly the lowest point in American history, losing to a bunch of beaver-eaters! Not as humiliating as our Aussie cousins losing the Ostrich War!
My Ancestor, Moses Pearsons, fought in this war and was at the battles of Lexington/Concord in the War for US independence. They were the the Andover Minutemen commanded by a rich man named Cadwallader Ford.
He fought in two wars separated by 35 years?
@@mrbaab5932 that’s how they have his record. Remastering veteran troops in 1812 was still a thing I guess.
@@mrbaab5932 35 years between the start of two wars, not the end of one and the beginning of another
Also, many who fought in the revolution, were in their teens, or younger, when they joined, and were of age and experience to be called up to be officers, in 1812.
My 6th great grandfather, Simon Fobes, also fought at Bunker Hill, Concord, and Lexington, , before being taken prisoner, Along with Benedict Arnold's troops, who survived boating and marching, from the Maine coast up to Quebec City, Canada. Their plans were thwarted, by a British spy in their midst, who left the group early in the trip, to report their plans to his superiors. At the time, Arnold was the best General the Colonies had , and was a long way from meeting the young and beautiful Peggy Shippen, who turned his coat, and related garments, and led him to ruin. Simon's account of all this is a chapter in the book, March to Quebec, by Kenneth Robert's. About a year after being captured, they were released in a prisoner exchange.

I had too many ancestors in this war to count. But yet I rarely study American history after colonization.
My eldest American ancestor provable (9th g-gpa) was in the battle at Mytick Fort, and was a founder of Norwich Ct.
Actually through him, my 7th g-gpa married William Bradford's granddaughter ( my 7th ggma) Alice Ripley, daughter of Hannah Bradford. So I go back to at least the Mayflower.
I also have a line of Harrtison Ancestors from Connecticut, from which I have 3 ancestors whom were named William Harrison. I'm presently working on about 2,500 relations, so it might take me years to figure out if I'm related to William Henry Harrison. I know that of my paternal and maternal sides, I've had numerous relations in every single war in New England and U.S. history, back to at least Mytick Fort.
I'm probably related to MOST families who were in Connecticut by the 1600s.
super interesting. thanks so much for sharing this online
It’s so cool that this became into kind of a documentary because I’ve been to the war of 1812 reenactment so that’s cool
My family fought in this war, and for that service they were given a land grant in Indiana, where we remain to this day. Great documentary. All sides in this conflict had good reasons for what they did. It's just sad that the world used to think the way they did.
thanks for your family's service to this great nation
Can I ask how much land ? Also congrats that's awesome I've never heard of anything like that before and I think it's great
@@bigmar5084 About 80 acres...obviously we don't still own the original land but we are still in Indiana
"It's just sad that the world used to think the way they did." It was different times, don't judge the past on how you "feel" today. Besides, you benefited from "that way of thinking" with this. "for that service they were given a land grant in Indiana, where we remain to this day." You could always give the land back (to who???) if you think it is "ill gotten gains." To your family. Thank you for your service.
The US owned plenty of lands, so compensation with land with was their only option. My Family came to Philidelphia on 10/17/1749 from Germany. They were involved in every conflict the US was in. My ancestor Eli Harry was in this conflict, and served 6 months, I have a copy of his discharge.
We had a small battle in my home town in this war. It was called The Battle of Ogdensburg. The town was taken by the British.
Why didnt you stop them

There was no Republican party in 1812. There was only a democrat/republican party(that is one party that later became the Democrat party). It's odd that he chose to say republican party instead of democrat party know that was a predecessor of the current Democrat party., but since it was something looked down upon he chose to say republican. He knew that most people don't know any better and would just accept that it was the republican party of today. Disingenuous historical revisionist. The media does this all the time. Y'all suck.. 🤮

It's told mostly from the perspective of Canada, the Indian natives both Canadian and the Brits! It's an excellent Doc. It also has a good story-line on Tecumseh's Iroquois Confederacy's participation. Didn't expect much and instead got a well rounded story of the war. Had great perspective from all sides of the nationalities involved. Usually you only see or read parts of this war. So having it all put together in such a well rounded way, was a real treat. I highly recommend it 🙂
Thank you! We are so glad you enjoyed it!

What a crock. The reason for the War of 1812 was the refusal of the US Gov't to accept the rechartering of the British Crown owned National Bank (1791) - the Second National Bank (1811), which was again rejected by President Andrew Jackson (1831) who's tombstone epitaph reads " I killed the Bank". Jackson was quoted for saying, "You are a den of thieves and vipers, and by God I shall route you out". They killed Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley, and JFK for the same reason. Always Follow the Money.
