Failed Colonies Your Teachers Never Taught You About
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 жов 2024
- Sometimes colonies are very successful, but other times they just don’t work out. Who knew that Scotland once tried to settle Cuba, Russia tried to take over Hawaii, and East Germany owned a little piece of the Caribbean. Today - the obscure, failed colonies that your teachers never told you about.

Great video. Just turn down the background music a tad for future ones!
Seriously the only comment I have on the video. This kid has serious talent!
@@heathdionne7717 d
@@heathdionne7717 a year later his music is still too loud.
Exactly what I was about to write. Love your content. The name of the chanel is spot on. But please turn the background music down a couple of notches. Or remove it.
It is distracting. Surprised the lad didn't comment at only a couple K subs
Wow, this legit seemed like a professional youtube channel. Surprised it only has 2k subs
4.88K subs 1 day later
Yea when I found this channel earlier today I expected it to have almost 1 mil subs, but it only had like 6k. I subbed!
11k 4 days later.
14k 5 days later
I thought that too. There’s a few more now.
I’m a huge history fan and I really enjoy this channel. Keep it up. Only one thing the music might be a little too loud.
please fix the audio, the music is too loud, i'm unable to hear you clearly.
You didnt mention that Scotland lost 1/5 of her wealth for the Project F
I hadn't ever thought about the potential for failed colonies before watching this video. Very interesting! A lot of people have commented on the music being too loud, but I honestly didn't notice it at all until I saw it in the comments, and wasn't bothered by the volume.
This is one of my favorite UA-cam channels
That really is interesting! Thanks for researching and posting. ❤
Very Nice Job Young Man! A+
Yes I did learn something new I’m from Scotland and never knew that I thought we just set up colonies in Canada
You did Nova Scotia= New Scotland
Chris Klitou yes Ik that’s what I said
@@bobsemple7660 you mean England to form Great Britain
UK didn't exist back then
Latvia once ruled Tobago. Malta ruled Saint Barthélemy,
Saint Kitts, Saint Croix and Saint Martin.
nice job dude! I liked how it was put together, bravo! I wouldn't hate seeing more because that was interesting.
I LOVE THIS CHANNEL :D background music could be turned down a bit, but other than that, I found it super informational and interesting!
Thank you! Love from NZ! ❤️❤️
Turned down a bit?
How about 50%.
You are smarter than most adults I know - Great Job!!!!
How is this channel not bigger? I’m calling it now - 100,000 subs before January 1st.
Good job Carter!
For a channel with 4k subscribers this was a great informative video! Keep up the good work
Molossia secretly rules the world.
George Pearson it’s gonna kill us all.
Oh boy, they’re coming for you now.
glaco better go into hiding then.
Seb In Spaace! There’s no hiding. There’s no running. Molossia will find you.
You deserve more subscribers man. Good video!
Carter, we have just discovered your channel, and you are correct. We often say, "That is interesting" at the end of your videos. We enjoy them very much and have one suggestion. The music, while nice, is simply too loud on some of your videos - like this one. We tune in to hear you, not the music, but we have to use closed captioning to tell what you are saying. Music can interfere with hearing so that some folks cannot understand the words. Just an FYI, and we hope you will take it to heart. Keep up the good work. Yours is a good channel.
Thank you so much for your feedback and I'm glad you're enjoying the channel! I will definitely make sure to keep the music lower in upcoming videos.
Great video.
My teacher definitely taught me about fort Ross, we had an overnight field trip there
I wish I had that teacher
wow, really interesting... you've just earned yourself a new sub :)
Wow! 13K subs in 6 days! Good job man!
You really need to get that music down i barely hear u at moments
Awesome video
Thank you. I enjoyed this video. It gave me information about our world I might never have known otherwise. Good job. If I may, I'd like to make a few suggestions for any future videos in the interest of improved production value. 1. Turn the background sound down a bit while you're narrating, I had difficulty hearing your delivery of facts at times because the music drowned out your voice. 2. On the delivery of facts, please speak louder and more authoritatively. This can be achieved by completing your speeches in segments, with some obvious edits. This way you could actually pre-read your copy several times in order to familiarize yourself with it before speaking, THEN deliver it down the microphone. 3. You, the speaker, don't need to be on camera as much in order to achieve suggestion #2. As you speak (possibly off camera) you could insert photos, videos or graphics onto the screen while your narration carries the piece. Your narration can be voiced through a microphone while reading off a script in another room if necessary, with the sound imported/blended into the overall production. This way, when you ARE on camera, you'll have a better presence and it won't look so obvious that you're reading off cue cards while you're facing the direction of the camera. Please don't confuse any of my thoughts here with criticism of your work. On the contrary, I felt it was pretty solid for someone your age.And keep in mind that all of these little tips are intended to help you produce a better quality video. Keep up the great work.
Interesting but the music is too loud to understand everything that is said.
You got the perfect voice for this
You can hear his voice over that music?
Cool.
Obviously
Way better sound quality than the last one I saw
hey i have some recommendations to make your videos even better than they are.
- if you have a cellphone or ipad/tablet, project the script backwards on the lens so you can look right into the camera
- some natural light in/brighter light
- lower the background music volume
other than that great and informative video!
Thanks!
Keep it up!! Do a history of the southwestern US !
I like how they say “new land” when our ancient ancestors already explored the lands. It’s sad when history disappears
Sick vid
Thanks! This is very interesting, don’t know why people don’t teach it. I don’t blame teachers, there are A LOT of things to teach in school, no offense teachers. I don’t blame them that people don’t know this. Everyone you meet knows something you don’t.
Can not hear you over the front ground music.
Do people not do a test playback before uploading a video?
I had to use the English subtitles and I only know how to speak english.
Subscribed
Interesting video... One suggestion: your music soundtrack is a tiny bit too loud while you speak
Amazing! I never knew anything of this
This reminds me of a young MKBHD and looked at him now... Keep it up 💪
I actually was taught about New Sweden in my grammar school American history class!!!
That was interesting
Poland/Lithuania had one colony, too :) The King of Courland (Courland is a Lithuanian region, but in those times Poland and Lithuania were one country), Jacob Kettler colonized Tobago! And Tobago was Polish and Lithuanian for some years :)
First of all, Courland is latvian region that was full of latvians (altho aristocracy and king were only baltic-germans). Second, yes, Courland was a vassal of Poland-Lithuania, but those were latvian peasants that were sent to this colony. So in a way, it makes it latvian and not polish colony (even if Latvia as a country did not exist back then)
Nicky42 You are probably Latvian so you'll say it's Latvian, Lithuanians will say it's Lithuanian and Poles will say it's Polish and Lithuanian.
@@Terrus_38 Yes, I am Latvian, but no Lithuanian would ever claim Courland as their ethnic and core state. Sure, it was incorporated into Duchy of Lithuania as a vassal state, but Lithuanians or poles have never lived there. Baltic-German families ruled it, and rest of the population were Latvian
@@Terrus_38 Anyone: "Tobago and Gambia are Polish-Lithuanian colonies"
Latvia: Well yes but actually no.
DanYeet Yes :) Exactly
All I hear is background music
11/10
love dis vid
Music is too loud
0:30
You never learn about california in school unless you live in california.
Good job though you explained it very well :)
Little did sweden know that the war in europe was not only the doom of its colonies but of its status as a great power too
That is interesting but this music is sick
Schaeffer would also be the best friend of the Brazilian empress and the one who planned and executed the German immigration in Brazil. Guy's life was interesting as hell
The only 2 I knew about the the East German Cuban island And Swedish delaware
that island was never mentioned during the reunification of germany so it is still part of east germany but it is futher west than germany so that makes the last part of east germany west germany
Ernst Thälmann Island was never actually or legally an East German colony. The big Thälmann statue in your video is actually located in Berlin, about a kilometer from where I live.
Scandinavia later sent immigrants to USA to escape cold dark winters ... somehow ended up in Minnesota in lost colony of Lake Wobegon.
U need more subs
East Germany never own the island. Cuba renamed the island
You can tell me something not intresting?Seriously you are genial!
Advice for you:
Pronounciate more and speak more loudly. When the monologue gets lengthy you sometimes dont "catch" my attention as much.
Im a new sub btw, this is a quality channel.
I knew about half of these. Not surprised about the Russia one though.
Can you really call Ernst Thallman Island a colony?
Samos Mapper Not really, but it’s still a little pretty cool
Good information but your voice was too low and the music too loud. Made it difficult to hear
I was expecting the time when the Latvians invaded Tobago
Argentina (including Uruguay) almost became a part of the British Empire and would have developed much like Canada (complete with bilingualism, although replace French with Spanish) - the only thing stopping that was that the British invasions in Buenos Aires in 1806 failed. Even as it was, Argentina was the crown jewel of Britain's "informal empire" in the late 19th-early 20th century.
Yes me love this
Ernst Thälmann Island was never actual part of East Germany. It was just meant as a gesture of friendship to rename the island.
Interesting subject matter. But the background music was too loud.
East Germany was never given the island, Cuba just renamed it and never even offered it to East Germany.
Add Oahu to the list. 10 billion dollar rail failure.
Albania also gifted Sarande to Nicolae Iorga for his work and Nicolae Iorga decided to give half of this territory to the Kingdom of Romania.
It was the only time Romania had an opening to the Adriatic Sea . Of course after Italy invaded Albania Romania lost this small , but beautiful territory.
At that time Romania was at the extent of its size.
What about denmark and the german empire and the islands in the caribbean?
your channel has good content
It's just that the channel name and thumbnails make me think that this is another clickbait channel, when it is obviously not
The background music were too loud.
Loved the video but turn down volume on the music.
You don't even really learn about Roanoke or Jamestown in US history classes let alone international ones. Americans still overwhelmingly think Puerto Rico is another country.
If you don’t have a mic, you can use the one on earbuds
You should of spoke about polands colony
What about the British colony of Ulster?
Good video but your music is too loud.
I swear this channel is going to blow up like atlas pro,Just a little more low quality
i just imagine in a different universe, america is swedish.
recommended gang wya
That is very loud music...
Tuscany would have colonised South America. Maybe it will be in the video?
Can't hear the guy!!
music is wayyyy too loud
The sound is not good
Correction: Kauai was never invaded by Hawaii and was never conquered, although it was ruled as part of Hawaii after the King of Kauai was kidnapped. It was later captured along with the rest of the Hawaiian Islands by the United States during the Spanish-American war in 1898. Because no treaty of annexation was ever made binding between Hawaii and the U.S., and because Hawaii was a neutral country at the time of U.S. capture, it is considered occupied territory until present day, just like Ukraine is occupied by Russia. Therefore, any movements of civilians from Hawaii to other U.S. states, such as relocation of children as part of custody orders issued by family court judges, are war crimes.
The Newlands Resolution in 1898 was the (controversial) acceptance of the treaty of annexation made between the Republic of Hawaii and the US in 1897, which initially did not get 2/3 Senate support. The Newlands Resolution did get 2/3 support in both the Senate and House. Was the annexation of Hawaii a moral and ethical action? Probably not. But it does not appear illegal.
@@MrChiefchili Mahalo for allowing the opportunity to educate. The annexation was and is illegal under international law. The United States specifically and explicitly disclaimed the validity of that treaty in the Hawaiian Claims Arbitration between UK and US in 1924. Rather Hawaii was captured by the United States in 1898 during the Spanish American war. Yet because Hawaii was a neutral country at the time, the annexation of Hawaii is not considered permanent and must be reversed under international law. See Thirty Hogsheads of Sugar v. Boyle, 13 U.S. 191 (1815). Hawaii also remains liable to Spain for failing to protect Hawaii's neutrality to the detriment of Spain.
@@soundmind9772 Where can I find the proceedings of that arbitration? A quick Google search only yielded summaries.
@@MrChiefchili Google Redward and Others (Great Britain) v. United States (Hawaiian Claims) 1925
@@MrChiefchili Try searching American and British Claims Arbitration Hawaiian claims in Google Books. On Page 21 of the document entitled 'American and British Claims Arbitration: Hawaiian Claims. Answer of the United States', the applicable section reads as follows: "The British Government state in their Memorial that the Treaty of Annexation ( mistakenly stated in the British Memorial as having become operative ) contained no provision for the assumption by the United States of responsibility for a payment of claims of this character, which is true. And they further state that presumably liability remained with the Hawaiian territory. The United States also considers that liability, if any ever existed on account of the arrest of the claimants, remained with Hawaii, which has for a quarter of a century been an extinct State."
Therefore, the position of the United States is that the treaty itself did not become operative. Indeed the United States does assert, however, that Hawaii has been an extinct state. The condition of being "extinct" for a period of time is not unheard of in international law. This was precisely the case when Morocco was colonized by both France and Spain. This was also the case when Madagascar was colonized by France, as well as during the French colonization of Algeria, and during the British colonization of Burma. Note that, like Morocco, Hawaii was originally included on the UN list of non-self governing territories. Like French Polynesia, Hawaii was fraudulently removed by the administrative power. And like French Polynesia, Hawaii is likely to be reinscribed on the list to correctly indicate that the process of decolonization is yet to be completed.
wait...so thats why iam 1% swedish, because i live in deleware
Did you knew Latvia had a successful colonie in the Tobago and in the Gambia(Africa)
Wasn't it Lithuania(As the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth)?
I think it's on Geography Now.
@@pierreodendaal6519 nope it was duchy of Courland(Latvia)
Wasn’t courland and semigallia a Lithuanian vassal?
Therefore the answer can be yes
@The Seeker Of Truth it was its vassal but Lithuania didn't do the colonizing Courland did
Hawai’i is not pronounced Hah-why-ee
It’s Hah-vai-ee
It’s not pronounced with a V in the continental US
MUSIC. TOO. DAMNED. LOUD.
The USA still has colonies.
Still living in the 🅱ast
They literally own 50% of the worlds economy, reason why most countries choose the US over China or Russia
@@abandonedchannel281 "...they own 50% of the world's economy..."
Hmmmmmmmmmmm😑
Inconvenient truth. People already lived in those places so Europeans just stole other people’s lands
I like the boy
Your video and message are ruined by over modulated music- too bad, looked like an interesting video...
Actually they do teach you about the 2 swedes that colonized Delaware
Well not really colonized kinda like given
Please, please, please lose the muzak.
