    How did I not know this video series existed?
    I am out of school and people are generally shocked by how little knowledge or even half-knowledge I have about basic history stuff and tbh, I have known this would become a problem sooner or later but it was getting a more and more severe case of "..and at this point I'm too afraid to ask." because while it did shock them, nobody ever really told me where to look to _learn_ the stuff my knowledge was so obviously lacking.
    It's almost 3 am right now, but I will come back to this with a notebook and coloured pencils and I will pretend I'm a student again and _get to learn_ again and I'm honestly looking forward to it.
    Thank you John and everybody who helped making this!

    "History reminds us that revolutions are not events so much as they are processes; that for tens of thousands of years people have been making decisions that irrevocably shaped the world that we live in today. Just as today we are making subtle, irrevocable decisions that people of the future will remember as revolutions."
    John Green and the rest of the script team, 2012 everyone.

  • @bellewether4534

    I have three degrees in history and still learn a ton from these videos. Most history programmes in my country encourage honing in on one very small geographical area and/or time period - especially at graduate level. However, I think having a broader view is essential if you want to be a great historian (and human being), and I always encourage it in anyone starting out in this field of study :)

  • @ricyha

    It's been over 4 years since I took AP World but I come here every once in a while to reminisce. The day of the exam, many of us students overpopulated a teacher's room because he promised to bring donuts for exam day. And we just munched on those donuts, in a dark classroom dimly lit by a small window with the projector playing "the history of the entire world i guess." But we barely paid attention, because small chatter filled the room, and everyone was anxious for the big day.
    Looking back, I felt like I was suffering, but now I carry a fond memory of a time where I was challenged to learn; now I take fulfillment in this small-souled vanity. I miss my classmates and wish the best for them (and wish the best for whoever's reading this, too)

    History ought to be a quantitative science, now that detailed simulations can reproduce and then expand or re-examine past events. And look into the deep future. Nothing is irrevocable; some things just take longer. There is nothing really hard, but some things take longer. Famine I know very well. I was the first Director of the Famine Early Warning System. Famine is not that complicated, except when a few humans are allowed to destroy the lives of thousands or millions (soon billions) of others. Richard Collins, The Internet Foundation

    Dear CrashCourse,
    I am a student from Kyrgyzstan, a former Soviet Union country, and I really enjoyed watching CrashCourse videos. I would love to share them with all people in my country, but the overwhelming majority of Kyrgyz people does not speak English.
    With my friends I wanted to join, translate and dub the World History course so that pupils and students from all over our small country could watch those videos and educate themselves. Maybe, some schools will agree to show them as well.
    I am writing this email to ask your permission to translate your courses and share them on UA-cam. We are not going to monetise it or sell the videos, we simply want to make your amazing works open for more people, and for Kyrgyz children and youth particularly.
    Kind regards,

AP stands for Advanced Placement and usually you can earn a college credit for the class. The class is supposed to represent what college academics will be like.
