@Winston Churchill I think an armistice wouldve been initiated. More than a million Americans would have died of course. Stalin actually wanted an alliance with Hitlet. Sick animal liked him.
You forgot to mention how Maria Theresa actually claimed the throne as the Holy Roman Empress, but as a co-ruler with her husband. She would've actually been the full empress, but it was prevented because she was a woman. Never forget that she also would not let her husband make choices on matters of state and often prevented him from attending council meetings
Per say, Denmark - Russia - Poland vs the Swedes. They managed to beat Denmark and Poland, but they lost in Poltava to the Russians, lost their king (Carolus Rex) aaaaaand basically got demolished in 1800ish and stopped being a major power since.
Great Northern War of 1700 - Sweden vs Denmark, Russia, Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, Hanover, Saxony, Prussia, and even the Ottomans and English for a brief period
After the battle of Fontenoy, the french took complete control over the austrian low country, and they completely drove the british out of India while beating off multiple attacks on french canada. The french won their part of the war, but gave it back because Louis XV felt it was immoral to gain land by conquest. I kid you not. After the war, the french had a saying "Travailler pour le roi de Prusse" or working for the king of prussia, meaning doing meaningless work. Louis XV traded his conquests in India for Louisberg in Acadia, and then just gave back the low countries for some reason.
Why? For not being a power-mad tyrant like his great grandfather Louis XIV? I think not, this monarch made many great decisions during his reign. France did very well for itself in all the wars it fought during this period except for the Seven Years' War which was arguably his generals' faults for concentrating on meaningless conflicts in the Americas and India instead of taking the opportunity to crush Prussia and Hanover. In addition, Louis XV never made any of the radical and ridiculous civil decisions Louis XIV had made during his reign (such as the revocation of the Edict of Nantes). I hate how Louis XV is always blamed for what happened during the French Revolution. If it wasn't for a ruler has benign and laid-back as Louis XV then France would have been in the same position it was during the reigns of both Louis XIV and Napoleon I, with massive European-wide coalitions arrayed against it. The French Revolution was unavoidable and should never be attributed to the faults of any one person, especially Louis XV
@@aegonii8471 So I suppose if he was TRULY a great monarch he would've gone on a quest to crush all of Europe's powers and take on the continent without any aid, just like those "noble" rulers of Louis XIV and Napoleon. Never mind if he certainly would have been decimated and would have only crippled France's finances further, anything is worth it for military glory. Makes sense
Great video! But when you said that most gained territories went back to their pre-war owners, you forgot to mention the port of Louisbourg. Its capture was the first step in the British conquest of French Canada, and forever changed the history of Canada.
Basically, Most wars can be sortet into: Austria vs Prussia France vs Germany France vs the British Italy just fighting itself Germany and Austria vs the world (mostly results in italian backstabbing) Entire countries slaughtering each other for a single river Austria vs the Ottomans (only time austria was as strong as it should be) The swiss minding their own damn buisness The Balkans just constantly being on fire Spain... I honestly have no Idea, colonising and fighting itself, I quess The USA being a thing The 2nd most bloody war in human history happening because an austrian was shot And last but not least, wars because they can
Thank you for mentioning Louisbourg! My (French) ancestors, the Acadians, would have been battling to secure Louisbourg and the rest of Acadie (now Nova Scotia) :)
Lol the french took the whole austrian netherlands not just a few towns and won the battle of Fontenoy against the english...weird you did not mention that
1 - Not by 1745. 2 - I didn't mention most battles 3 - I can't tell if you're implying I'm biased. But, just in case, I should mention, I don't really take pride in English wars in the 18th Century. Or many wars really.
1 - by 1748 2 - that isnt most battles that was one of the biggest victory the french had over britain in the whole century 3 - im implying you are a bit anglo centric and anti french let's just say just like all the english you have a tendency to minize or outright deny french victories
But that part of the video is 1745. That comes at 3:25 - and the I mention the Treaty of Dresden at 3:39. So I pretty much summed up the remaining years of war in a sentence later the occupation of Austrian Netherlands did very little to change the outcome of the war. I'll counter - I've done these videos for ages now. I've been called both anti-Serb and anti-Croat, anti-Greek and anti-Turk. Anti-Japanese and anti-Chinese. You get the idea. It usually comes from people who say something along the lines of - "you didn't mention how great we were, why do you hate us?" However, I'm not remarkably patriotic at all. It's just incredibly hard for nationalists to accept that some people don't have the same pride in historical events as they do. I mean why would I care if France won a battle in the 18th Century? Do you think I would deliberately leave that out because I'm anti-French or anglo-centric? I mean if that's the case wouldn't most my videos be about British wars?
Just a very minor nitpick, in the map showing the Assault on Austria at the very beginning of the war you forgot to color in the Electorate of Saxony as another enemy of Austria. Otherwise very nice video, you sir have a fantastic channel :)
@@aidenhorton18 Defeats are pushed under the carpet. Specially when it was such a humiliating defeat as this one. If the British could they would even erase it from the record books.
The correct name of this war is the "War of the Austrian Succession". The way you've rendered it in your title suggests that it was fought internally, which isn't the case.
Habsburg rulers did not reform their tax system and military for so long. I’m surprised they didn’t lose more land. Losing Silesia was a huge blow because it was a rich part of Austrian lands
while the picture of austrian territories at 0:10 is technically accurate for after the treaty of utrecht, it isn’t relevant for the conflict the video is about. This is because it shows the kingdom of naples as highlighted. while this would revert to what was essentially spanish control in 1738 at the end of the war of polish succession
So you've mentionned Dettingen, wich was merely a tactical success and followed by "the only french success" wich just, you know defeated the british, austrian, dutch and hanoverian coalition. All right.
Lol how? It kept order and benign rule in the most fragmented and complicated part of Europe for over a thousand years. It was a perfect system because everything was about compromising and being fair; it kept most minorities such as the Jews from being persecuted, the peasants from just being steamrolled by the nobility, and consistent and effective protection from enemies such as the Magyars and Ottomans, all of which are accomplishments that many other European nations of the time period cannot live up to. That's why no one ever actually wanted to leave the Empire itself; if an imperial state was fighting against the Emperor, it's because they were trying to obtain something for themselves and NOT because they were trying to break away.
I know this was a joke but keep in mind that during this time period blockades weren't really an option, if you tried to consistently keep your wooden ships in the water for such a long period of time they would start to rot away pretty quickly lol
God, storms really have a habit of fucking up invasion fleets. Must've been the worst thing ever, you dedicate all this time, money and effort into building a grand fleet and army, only for it to be beaten by the weather.
Such a bad video, sleepy music in the background, the voice is so monotonous. I fell asleep in a 3 minute video, it was that bad! I watched this a 1 pm so I wasn´t even tired.

normal game in eu4
Honestly, austria either wrecks or is the least important european powerhouse in EU4 (in my experience)
Whats eu4?
@Winston Churchill Haha no things dont become futuraistic until Cod of Duty Black Ops 4. Also thank for helping us destroy Adolf Hitler.
@Winston Churchill It happens. Shame Stalin and Hitler didnt unite so two dictators could be destroyed.
@Winston Churchill I think an armistice wouldve been initiated. More than a million Americans would have died of course. Stalin actually wanted an alliance with Hitlet. Sick animal liked him.

Sweden fought a war against someone other than Denmark?
Sweden fought a war against quite a few nations...they were a European Power at a time.
Per say, Denmark - Russia - Poland vs the Swedes.
They managed to beat Denmark and Poland, but they lost in Poltava to the Russians, lost their king (Carolus Rex) aaaaaand basically got demolished in 1800ish and stopped being a major power since.

Fun fact: Sweden and Denmark has fought the most wars between two nations ever.
As a Dane i am suprised to!
Thanks for making this!

Wilson Elder Louis XV led France to stagnation which is arguably worse than defeat.

Damn good show!

Holy camoly.
Love the video, but European history is complicated as fluff :O
Basically,
Most wars can be sortet into:
Austria vs Prussia
France vs Germany
France vs the British
Italy just fighting itself
Germany and Austria vs the world (mostly results in italian backstabbing)
Entire countries slaughtering each other for a single river
Austria vs the Ottomans (only time austria was as strong as it should be)
The swiss minding their own damn buisness
The Balkans just constantly being on fire
Spain... I honestly have no Idea, colonising and fighting itself, I quess
The USA being a thing
The 2nd most bloody war in human history happening because an austrian was shot
And last but not least, wars because they can
That’s cause they made it unnecessarily complicated even when the reasons were quite simple and stupid.
Thank you for mentioning Louisbourg! My (French) ancestors, the Acadians, would have been battling to secure Louisbourg and the rest of Acadie (now Nova Scotia) :)

Robert Anderson lucky
0:12 yooo whats up with Corsica
Sssshh
0:13 What happened to Corsica???
give it back give it back give austria's happy place back
And this is why i ship AusHun
You should do a video on the quasi war between france and the U.S.
Interesting video
It's the decline of the French monarchy. This war was ruinous for its economy, hence the Revolution , Napoleon and the advent of the new bourgeoisie.
Charles Albert wasn't the son-in-law of Charles VI but of his older brother Joseph I (and thus argued his wife had a better claim than Maria Theresa).
the jenkins war an inconclusive war? more like a British defeat. the begun it, they retreated.
Not officially tho

Is this Stewy when he grows up before he meets his baby self.
It must be.
Its hard to do notes because even with CC, its hard to tell some of the words you are saying.
The returning of Louisbourg to France angered a lot of American colonists.
Since most videos are now 4 minutes should it not be 4 minute histories. I be ok with that.
+DarudeShaun Ha, I wouldn't. I would be bloody annoyed by the short little intro on every video if I changed the name.
never change it from 3 minute, you art style as wel stayed the same and i like it.
What about the war of jenkings ear please!!!

War of Austrian succession=World war -1
Seven years war=World war 0
War of Spanish succession? 9 years war?
was this made in ms paint?
This war led to the peace treaty which recognizes Prussia as an independent kingdom.
Wow all these wars of successions, pretty much over which European monarch's cousin should get what throne
Both Frederick the Great and Maria Theresia came to power after the deaths of both their fathers in 1741
Who else is doing this for CP Modern World History?
Can you do Jenkins Ear War?
+TripleMpro221 Will do. Although the next videos will be Tulip Mania, Jacobite Rebellion and the Qing conquest of the Ming
+Jabzy Fantastic. Great Job!!
+Jabzy Qing Conquest of the Ming?! Awesome!
This can be called Game of Thrones: Austrian Version
Hate to correct you but Charles Albert was not Charles VI son in law he was Joseph I
I'm a nerd now
Prussia and Austria Stronk!!
That's the Luxemburgian flag, not the Dutch one ;)
So you've mentionned Dettingen, wich was merely a tactical success and followed by "the only french success" wich just, you know defeated the british, austrian, dutch and hanoverian coalition. All right.
Luther, Westphalia and the Hapsburgs weakened the Holy Roman Empire until Napoleon dissolved it to politico-social chaos within Germany.

Yes, but if narrated by an English speaker it won't be admitted.
That's a joke btw
