*please do it, thank you, and we love your channel, from Iran with luv* . 🇮🇷✌
The part about Tecumseh’s father dying and telling him to protect the tribe with his last breath then Tecumseh growing up to be a badass warrior is like something out of a movie
Get the book called the frontiersmen about Simon kenton and tecumseh is in there it's unreal the story of it all u won't put it down God bless 🙏miami County Ohio
actually movies came after great stories like this! some people really are bigger than life...
A entire hour of content full graphic, 100% free, men you are really cool.
Yes, arguably one of the best history channels on the tube along with biographics with Simon.
Amen !
I'd say this is the future of history entertainment becuase tv documentary don't feel like they can complete
@@Andrew-xq7ni problem with tv these days is they want to be all things to all people and manage to squeeze in 15 minutes of ads at the same time its all vanilla flavoured unoffesive crap history shows are usually simplified beyond reason with only part of the story being shown and even then presented in a favourable fashion to their expected audiance
@@kimmogensen4888 Exactly, if we want to apply leftist logic to him. He was racist against the poor Europeans that just wanted to settle down on American soil and was evil for fighting for his people. Two can play at this game. 😉
I just posted this on your recent video on the Seminole but I’m repeating it here.
I am a native Oklahoman and member of the Shawnee tribe. I learned some of my own history from you. You’d be amazed how many Shawnee don’t even know who Tecumseh was. And virtually none of us are taught about his brother.
28March2021: Thank you for your comment. I commend you. If you have time and money you should travel to Vigo county, Indiana where Tecumseh is prominently featured in one of four incredible historical murals painted by the great Bill Wolfe, who also has sculpted Little Turtle. While in Vigo, only about 30 minutes south in Sullivan county there are two mounds (a small state park) very near a "narrow" of the Wabash River. The narrow is fully open to the public and a protected site of the Indiana Department of Natural Resources. It is highly UNLIKELY that TECUMSEH DID NOT REPEATEDLY PASS THROUGH THIS NARROW and/or CAMP THERE. Tecumseh and all Shawnee that died feel better when we travel to such places to remember and try to commune with them. Also learn "The Turtle Creation Story". ! ! !
The history is there to be learned.
Find the book "A Sorrow In Our Heart" by Alan ekhart.amazing biography of Tecumseh and the struggle.
Even the Canadians are very quiet about that actually Frenchj-Canadians, Métis and Natives saved Canada from an US invasion and the biggest US defeat was in Québec City were 800 US troops under Benedict Arnold were beaten by 77 Native and French Canadian warriors. Benedict Arnold fled leaving 400 dead and wounded behind, this was the only important battle since without Québec-City in British hand Canada would have fallend. The Manitoba Métis under Louis Riel kept Americans out of Western Canada. There were also several Swiss mercenary generals with their Swiss regiments involved in defending Canada such as Regiment de Meuron and Regiment de Watteville, also this aren't to be found in Canadian or US history books. Giving Natives and French-Canadians/Métis credit for defending Canada would have lessened the brutal treatment of Métis, Natives and French Canadians which follwed once Canada was secured...the British spoke with 2 tonques...and never respected their given words...to French-Canadians, Natives and Métis nations.
Man can imagine how emotional this video must have been.
This is absolutely incredible. There's a reason that the US Naval Academy has a statue in honor of Tecumseh. I can't believe there hasn't been a big budget tv series of this entire epic story.
That's not a statue of Tecumseh
@@Big_Glizzy. umm, yeah it is. It's placed right in "Tecumseh court." Who did you think it was.
This is history the united states and uk probably like ppl not to remember 🧐
In Chillicothe Ohio they have an outdoor drama about Tecumseh. If you ever go to Ohio or near the area, I highly recommend you check it out. They also do a sleepy hollow drama during Halloween. Both are awesome experiences.
Tacumseh was a hero to many and probally some who could carry on his goal the town i live in has a university founded by a Tacumseh Jones who had a British dad and indigios mother and whos goal was to educate americsn native indigious indians
Learned more here than from years of boring history classes.
I’m sorry your classes were boring, history classes were some of my favorites. It’s like story time for adults
Where tf do they talk about the embargo act
They don’t teach the truth anyway if People truly want to know ask Elders they are our records books and they have the truth 😌❤️🦅
@@erickamekonapeper4007 the history courses that I took decades ago were just starting points and I've not blindly believed the "official" history or politics in almost as long.
IT IS from those boring and tiring classes that this story was made.
My ancestors fought with this man. I am winnebago native. Quite the story. Without these events, perhaps I wouldn't be here. History is amazing to learn from
I dont like the term American Indian lmao. Has a stained meaning I feel like. Lol but I get it, we've been called it so long it kinda stuck.
I live in SW Ontario. We have a town named after Tecumseh and multiple monuments/plaques and other dedications. Unfortunately we didn’t learn much about the war of 1812 in public school. Very informative video👍
I grew up in Quebec, neither our public schools dared teach us about the war of 1812. I already knew of it back then because I was fond of history, but there are still a lot of Canadians who don't know that Americans once invaded us and that we repelled them.
don't worry, for it is being taught extensively here in the west
@@williampitt1537 if I remember correctly sone French Canadians joined with the Americans to fight the British.
@@conifergreen2 there might have been some - every war has many allegiances - but most french-canadians would rather stay with the British since they saw a better opportunity to keep their faith and values. Indeed, the province of Quebec still was ruled by french civil law and the British didn't bother its inhabitants for being catholic. Those were key factors that decided in which country the french-canadians wanted to be in.
@@williampitt1537 Acadians being the exception I presume?
I grew up near Tecumseh Ontario which is outside of Windsor. This history was never taught in school. Most people knew it was the name of an Indian chief, but not much about what he did in his lifetime. Thanks for a telling his story.
Thank you. This narration and animation brought tears to my eyes. I am Frank Tecumseh Williams IV. His name has been in my family for generations as you can see. Native American blood does flow through my veins, but more than that, the spirit. Thanks again.
Ever heard of William Tecumseh Sherman? 😏
@@dersuddeutschesumpf5444 I know exactly who William Tecumseh Sherman is. My one of favorite Civil War Generals, second to Grant, but he was a close second. Sherman had the right idea and if he would have gotten his way Jim Crow may not been able to exist. This country may have actually achieved true freedom after the Civil War because he would have kept his foot on the south's neck until they gave up their racist tendencies or at least for the most part. His middle name being Tecumseh says something about what his parents must have believed in. Thanks for the remainder. I haven't thought about him in some time now.
Frank, I just found out Tecumseh is my 5x great grandfather. Happy to see your comment, I feel connected to you.
@@road2morality We are connected my brother, by blood and spirit. My you be ever blessed and illuminated by the Great All Soul.
@@frankwilliams3036 Sherman wasn't anti slavery. He was just a maniac. He "rented" slaves while stationed in the South, and is thought to have actually own several.
The Shawnee also participated in the trade and ownership of black slaves.
My ancestor Mushulatubbee, was there as the chief of the Okla Tenap, (Choctaw) when Tecumseh met with Pushmataha.
Tecumseh must have made an impression, because Mushulatubbee named one of his sons after him. The name remained in my family for several generations, but eventually died out.
So Geromino and Crazy Horse have had their own movies made when is Tecumseh gonna get his own movie?
there is a tv movie of tecumseh its very good. it was in parts on youtube
@@jungleninja-tropic5690 name?
There was one! Tecumseh The Last Warrior (1995 ‧ Action/Adventure ‧ 1h 30m) it was not great
@@godkingemperor7685 personally, I think Americans are interested in Native peoples but its not easy working with native tribes, cause they have a lot of creative control over how the movie is presented which may be vastly different from what the director wants, and they often charge a lot of money for participating in.
@@hepcatliz thanks
Word to whomever put this together. Much like Hiawatha and the peacemaker, Tecumseh wasn't willing to fail. May his story live on out of respect for our elders and all Native races.
Tecumseh MY BLOOD
I've stood on Profits Rock. Clear panoramic view of the entire battle of Battle Ground Indiana. Ticumpca was a visionary. (A shooting star). My ancestor marched with William Henry Harrison from Vincennes. He survived the battle. His name is the first/top of the memorial to the battle
I’m 30 minutes north from Prophetstown. It’s great to see local history getting the same treatment as the greats of Europe and Asia!
This channel is on an absolute roll lately. Amazing content at an insane rate
Wheres the part where it talks about the embargo act
Always awesome, this is easily one of my favorite (in my top 3 or 5) history channels on yt!
British propaganda.
Thank you for making this!
Thanks for watching! :-)
Told with American bias.

Keith Peterson you you order completely irrelevant Italian bias?
NATIVE AMERICANS ARE SPECIAL AMERICANS. WE ALL
OWE THEM A GREAT DEBT AND HONOR. MANY AMERICANS

This is a truly impressive an innovative video. Unlike standard histories of America, the native Americans are centre stage in this account, exploring the viewpoint of Tecumseh and other native leaders. Defo a five star video!
The words "Native Invasion" really don't belong next to one another... Thank you for teaching this history
Thank you for bringing indigenous stories to a mainstream platform. Introducing people to this side of history is a very important task.
@Cyber Beast ooh, did someone steal your lollipop?
@øranuto husband ?
There’s a neighborhood called “Little Turtle” in Columbus and there is a ski resort called “Mad River Mountain” in Ohio. It’s nice to know where these names came from
In Bellefontaine Ohio, the cornerstone of the courthouse is where the Centerpoint of Blue Jackets lodge once stood. Lots of history here in Ohio.
Ohio also kinda sounds like “hello” in Japanese.
@@InVinoVeratas Ohio go zyamas
@@InVinoVeratas Ohio actually originated from the Seneca word ohiːyo', meaning "good river", "great river", or "large creek"
The town they mention that Tecumseh watch burn was the Shawnee capital, named Chillicothe. The modern city is a few miles away from the former Shawnee town.
I remember learning about Brock. We honestly do consider him a national hero and were taught of his bravery and willingness to “work with the natives”
So much better than the History Channel it boggles my mind that this isn't on cable instead. Great video once again.
Man, I clicked with the idea of watching a couple minutes before going to bed and here I am, 59 minutes later, great work guys! keep up with the hard work!
Wat kind of underwear does your sister wear
Same!
"In the end the only true losers of the War of 1812, were the indigenous tribes of the continent". Sadly so.
Started with James Town, 1607'
Truly sad. And even after all they've went through almost none of their lands were freed.
@Ron Lewenberg Windows?
Yep no one talks about this. Anytime someone asks who lost the war of 1812. The British or the Americans?
The Indians.
My tribe got to live and keep some land and lots of money . Not to shabby
This enraged Tecumseh, who beat Proctor severely.
oh wait, wrong history channel.
One of two great things Andrew Jackson did; he was victorious at New Orleans, and he refused to BORROW from the Bank and create National debt. Wiser than today's leaders. . .
R.I.P. Tecumseh. RESPECT!
As an Ojibwe, I’m proud that we sent contingents to aid Tecumseh during this time. I would’ve gladly gave up my life for our cause and people.

native americans are not indians.
@@xofrnkk9209 The Indian Wars is still a legit term. Even this video uses the word Indian. Watch closely.
GREAT VIDEO! Love that you featured Native Americans in their fight against terrorism!
uhh
Ahh the "Panther in the Sky" a incredibly intelligent,proud, and brave man! One of the greatest pure leaders of all time in my opinion. I 100% believe if he would of been born under different circumstances he could of built a empire or be remembered today as Tecumseh The Great. He's always been a fascinating figure in my view and doesn't get enough credit for his accomplishments. Great video.
Edit: Blue Jacket was a caucasian man that may of had the skin of a white man but his heart was 100% Shawnee. Not really important but just a fun fact for you.
Maybe we can get a video on Quanah Parker or another Commanche soon or maybe a Roman Nose or Crazy Horse video. Really any first nation American peoples would be awesome. Thanks for the fantastic content you really do great work. 👍
@@ajaxjs if the pot has ever called the kettle black more than it has here I am not aware of it. On top of that literally everything you said is completely false. I'm as big a believer as there is in everyone being able to have there own opinions and to freely talk about there said opinions without being screamed at, publicity attacked for there views, or canceled in today's political climate etc etc. You sir do not fall into that category. You cannot change proven facts no matter how hard you try and trying you are. Literally EVERY single point you tried to make was either supported by false information or ignoring historical facts. I could literally tear apart every single word you said, not by giving a different opinion but by producing actual evidence to prove you are just making false statements. I normally would gladly debate a subject with anyone who ideas I have differing opinion with. That is with rational intelligent people that don't just spit out completely ignorant and false opinions. I also would rarely ever judge anyone from just one statement they made. But in this case your one statement says so much more about the kind of individual you are that I am completely satisfied I have learned enough about you to know trying to have intelligent mature conversation would be impossible and a complete waste of my time. Also its crystal clear you are one of three things a troll, totally ignorant on this subject, or just a plan liar. I find it hard to believe you are really serious and able to say any of this with a straight face and honestly think any thing you said was really true but this is the internet after all so i dont know. Anyway Goodluck crazy you're gonna need it ✌
My middle school is named after Tecumseh, as are a bunch of the roads in my area in Mississauga Ontario
cool
Very fascinating individual that I wish I had learned more about when I was still in school.
ikr what an amazing figure he was
He's also a pretty good chainsaw
I urge anyone who doesn’t know, to look up residential schools, they are the aftermath of colonialism, and fuels our people’s trauma to this day. My grandmother was experimented on in residential school, Canada did illegal experiments on native children during the 19th century, it was know as a eating experiment, where they wouldn’t feed them for ages. And what they got, were the scraps from the priests and nuns looking after them, if they were lucky. It was called gruel, and I knew of it growing up. Obviously it wasn’t the same, but the idea was it was basically oats with whatever leftovers were around.
@@InVinoVeratas catholics and other Christians used to think that bodily pleasure was sin
To eat something like gruel was good for the soul because it keeps it from pleasure and sin
Its fucked up to impose that on people.. Asceticism cant be imposed on children in hopes of creating perfect christians.
They seperated children from families and started a generational cycle of pain.. Its an absolute tragedy
If we were taught more Indigenous American history we might have figured out who "black" people are... Indigenous. 👐🧨💥✌
Great documentary! Recently had a professor go over how natives dealt with westward expansion and this was a great piece on the more violet aspect. Most think it was one sided but until the war of 1812 confederacies like Tecumseh’s were major power players and won an outright majority of the early conflicts.
That's a lesson for many leaders, your role has a much wider purpose and larger implications than just charging up the hill.
That was really cool that Tecumseh apparently had enough future sense to know about the UA-cam bell button over 200 years later.
Truly a man ahead of his time
"Tecumseh" little did they know that name will come haunt them throughout the 1860's and 1870's
@@ashleyoasis7948 seach up General Sherman and read on what he did to the native Indians
@Seanny America somehow that's right,a disgrace to the name
@Seanny America Well bad news, Sherman was definitely a huge bigot.
@@the_exegete Not a "huge" bigot. Just an ordinary bigot, typical for the times. And despite his bigotry, he did more to free blacks than anyone else in history. Also, throughout his life he opposed wars of conquest against natives.
General sherman was from ohio
Wow what an ending. I'm not crying, you're crying!
Simply the best of all kings and generals' productions thus far.
Harrison and Tecumseh: one the coolest standoffs in history.
Tecumseh famously marched a small army through a opening of Trees(walking in a circle ). To give the view of a never ending army . And it worked
@Jan Brady yes, its been done a number of times in history . I believe Hannibal did it in his war against Rome. Tho I doubt Tecumseh knew foreign military history. It just shows the level of military genius he shared with other great minds.
@@Mikefantasia22 the Mongols as well. Genghis Khan.
I wrote one of my APUSH essays on Tecumseh, the man was a legend. Gotta love that Sherman carried that legacy on
If I could witness one event in person from this documentary it would probably be the debate between Harrison and tecumseh
I luv this man ( tecumseh ) his spirit and desire for freedom is amazing, despite the odds he never bowed down
"Live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no man about his religion. Respect others and their views and demand they respect yours. Love your life. Perfect your life. Beautify all things in your life. When your time comes to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death. Those that weep and ask for time to live their life over again in a different light. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home." Tecumseh
Pretty words for a religious extremist who preached racial hatred.
And also hated miscegenation! LoL
@@tulipalll I hate miscegenation, especially if it's FORCED miscegenation.

And attacking people who disagree with your religion is cool too?
@Katarina Love "black" indians? What?
@@tulipalll what historical figure that conquered or fought against it couldn’t be described as such? Strange that this smear is only applied to this figure.
You guys should definitely do more episodes on the Indian wars. It's something US high school history skips a lot of the time to make time for 20th century stuff.
Some of the best reading I’ve done in my life has been on Tecumseh! Check out this book:
A Sorrow in Our Heart: The Life of Tecumseh
Thanks for sharing the book title
A most excellent book. The author, Alan Eckert, also wrote a book called "The Frontiersmen". This was one of his first books, as well as one of his most popular books. Indeed, the "Frontiersmen" is in a class by itself, and Tecumseh is one of the main characters in that narrative. Many years after Eckert published "The Frontiersmen", he write a similar book called "A Sorrow in Our Heart," but in this one Tecumseh is the main character; in fact, "A Sorrow in Our Heart" is, for all intents and purposes, an excellent biography of Tecumseh. What is especially good about "A Sorrow..." is how Eckert corrects some of the previous historical errors he made about Tecumseh in "The Frontiersmen".
I had the privilege of meeting Allen Eckert in Bellefontaine, Ohio, just after "A Sorrow in Our Heart" was published. He signed my copy.
This is the best documentary I've seen on Tecumseh. Outstanding.
Thanks for making and sharing this!
Of note, "William Tecumseh Sherman", Union General of the Civil War, born in Ohio, 1820. There has to be a story behind that middle name being placed upon that child.

What do you mean by "that" ?
@@clarencealexander1093 By the part I typed in quotes. Wouldn't have thought that was a mystery.
I am very familiar with Tecumseh. Been to the outdoor play in Chillicothe many times. The name Tecumseh is probably the greatest Native American Indian chief that you will never hear about in the history books. I am a native born Ohioain and if you didn't grow up in Ohio and had Ohio history, you have most likely never heard of the Shawnee Chief Tecumseh! If Tecumseh had succeeded in building his Alliance, America's history would be a whole lot different.
My father's family is from Chillicothe and I've seen the outdoor play myself several times. Absolutely amazing. We are from Indian decent and the play is a huge part of my ancestry.Plan on seeing it next summer again. It never gets old!!
I am part Shawnee. Thank you.
I honestly love this video. The soul reason is because this isn't biased towards natives being hero's and Americans being conquerors nor the opposite but just that it feels unbiased but a good story in history, keep up the good work.
Then why does he say that Unfortunately the tribes of the south would not join him. Unfortunately? Many more deaths had they joined.
@@zarb88 What?
@@tylermassey5431 Yes, I see what you're trying to do but it's not like their trying to say that America = evil colonialist power. I mean it in the sense ythat it is a good story but for a story about tucamseh, it seems a lot more unbiased then you're average college proffessor.
@@tylermassey5431 lmao
@@tylermassey5431 I think any bias of the video comes from it being more of a story about Tecumseh, and not about how things went down in general, so the wording and things said may reflect how it affects the native perspective. Yet, there is not a big deal in that, as it's presented like it would be a more in general set of events.
Love Tecumseh (pronounced Tek-um-say). His name in his native tongue closer to panther moving in the night sky. The shooting star being the glowing eye of the panther pouncing
@yagbos k
@yagbos your fn hilarious
@yagbos wtf- I don’t know what kinda books you been reading but you have missed a few chapters and ate a few pages it seems 😳
@yagbos "engines" the least you could do is spell the racial slur correctly lmfao
strange that you call the "great spirit", the creator of the world in native mythology, satan instead of the native equivalent/interpretation of the same creator god that Christians (and Jews and Muslims, but you're too ignorant to understand that) worship. they say "great spirit" because that's just how the algonquian languages work. English Christians use the word "god" which is different from the original Hebrew YHWH by a long shot.
and comparing Tecumseh to Hitler? Tecumseh, who fought to preserve unity and his people against an aggressor who was destroying everything they knew and was against the killing of non-combatants, versus Hitler who fought wars of aggression to destroy the Jewish, Romani, and Slavic peoples of Europe and settle his own colonial empire? Hitler has more in common with the US than the natives in that regard. Generalplan Ost and the entire program of the holocaust was based upon the settler state that was established in the USA on top of dozens of native nations.
@yagbos You speak and think like a Nazi.
This was truly one of the most brilliant films I have seen in my entire life. I am in tears. What a remarkable soul Tecumseh was. What I would give to tell that man exactly how grateful I am for his inspiring legacy. The realest OG of them all. RIP Tecumseh, I will make it central to my life’s mission that we will never forget your name, brave warrior
I went to the coast guard and basic training lasted 2 months. Didn’t have my phone or anything and I can’t tell you enough how much I missed these videos!!!

Wow, this video is amazing! Fantastic job!!! I felt like I watching an epic movie with a similar vibe to “Last of the Mohicans”. The video was about 1 hr and yet I was enthralled the entire time. Tecumseh deserves to have a TV series about his life, he truly was a remarkable man.
Thanks K&G truly cause its sad how my history teachers barely touched this subject in school before moving to more pg13 events in history. 💯
It’s easier to portray us Indians as evil and savage. Much harder to sell the idea of a nation, when it built on the corpses of its former allies, turned enemy because of the betrayal they endured.
@@InVinoVeratas Near the start during the 7 years war, it wasn't the europeans who betrayed the Native Americans it was the Iroquois. Imagine how history might be different had your own people not picked the evil side.

In Fort Wayne, Indiana there is a statue of Little Turtle at Headwaters Park, where the three rivers come together: the St. Joseph, the Maumee, and St. Mary's rivers.
There's another statue of Little Turtle on the banks of the Ohio, right across the river from Cincinnati, in Kentucky, where the Licking River and Ohio River meet.
"The Frontiersman" by Allan Eckert tells this story very well. Read the book many years ago as a kid and re-read it within the past few years. Well worth reading with Google Earth open to look at the various places referenced in the book.
I haven't read that one but have read "a sorrow in our hearts" the life and times of Tecumseh, by Eckert 4 times.
I have read both books and when we would drive south I would comment where I had read about this area to my parents.

Epic! Thanks K&G
Where do they talk about the embargo act
This channel has alot of impressive conflicts videos, but this one is by far one of the best! The rivalry between Tecumseh and Harrison sounds like an epic story that can be put to film very well like the rivalries of Lee vs Grant, Montgomery vs Rommel, or Alexander the Great vs Darius of Persia
Tecumseh the great is one of the most underrated heroes of this world
Hollywood painted the red indies as savages, but thanks to Kings and Generals... The real savages were the foreign European land grabbers in North America
Wish a series will be made of the life of Tecumseh the noble and great
We need a Tecumseh series.
we already have
this is the 3rd video for tecumseh
Do you mean a Netflix type series?
Note: the best British general, Brock, was given a silver sash, this marked out Brock for death.
Yep. We found out later that you have to disguise your best officers on the battlefield. The finery has to be reserved for the parade ground.
@@AeneasGemini aye. The memo that the gentlemanly codes no longer applied didn't get around to everybody quite in time.
@@derinden15 And ironically enough it was mostly always those in charge who explicitly tell their troops to pillage, rape and commit atrocities, or if not that just metaphorically shrug and say "oh well, soldiers will be soldiers!"
@@GlamStacheessnostalgialounge Nah, it was usually purposeful. If the K&G channel has taught me anything, soldiers were easy to recruit not because of the scripted pay but because of the opportunity at the spoils of war. Pillage was part of the pay. Nothing new to see here.
@@AeneasGemini Not really, everyone was fair game at all time, the British used light infantry and skirmishers before the US were independent. Said light infantry and skirmishers target officers and harassed the enemies as usual, the idea that gentlemanly warfare being rudely interrupted by the Kentucky rifle is an old revisionist tale passed from generation to generation. Warfare is always horrible and dirty and it will be eternally so.
Being flashy just meant that the officers will lead from the front to show their men that their leader will fight with them, boosts morale you see. To let your men know you're there with them, you need to look flashy and stand out from the rank and file. Again, this has been a thing since the ancient Greeks and is nothing new.
I've been to the museum where they have Brocks uniform, you can see the whole where the musket hit and a little bit of old dried blood kinda creepy lol. Also his statue is an amazing sight. My family where loyalists, so we fought for the Brits, long line of military service both in British and Canadian military, even a little bit of native blood due to the "intermingling" at the time. Love the fact you switched gears and talked about our history for a change. Forgive my rambling, its late, and I'm stoned lol.
My grade school is called general brock
Wow... mass respect to those who made this program. I'm stunned by all that must have went into the myriad of informative dialogue and visual aids... thank you... keep up the great work. ❤
YESSS! This is perfect, and what's more, you used the best music, civ war music!
I wish more people would cover topics like these. In the US we learn too much about history from an "American protagonist" point of view. I remember from over 6 years ago in school that these wars were taught as conflicts between equal parties and forces, and not just basically the equivalent of someone coming into your house with a gun, threatening to shoot you if you don't leave, and then claiming that the house was legally theirs all along.
Hmm I remember the soundtrack from Empire Total War.
That is a very good analogy of what happened. I really appreciate comments from people who can take in and understand real history. Your comment is a breath of fresh air.
That analogy applies to old world and new world amongst themselves. The conflicts should be treated the same.
The hypocrisy of upholding the American constitution though should be noted.
Such an amazing video! The graphics, narration, and sound design are captivating! I'm here after reading Pierre Burton's 'Invasion of Canada' and 'Flames Across the Border'. These books made me fall in love with Tecumseh and it was great to watch these highlights of his life.
How do you get such in depth information? Love it! Please do more Native American videos if you can… a history that is glossed over.
much of this information is to be taken with a grain of salt from a historical perspective. Its mostly based on written sources by people living in or around this time, which are not the most reliable sources.
Best author and researcher was Thomas Eckert. Find "a sorrow in our heart" the life and times of Tecumseh. This narration seems to draw on it as it's fairly accurate but abbreviated for the format.
@@gpwcowboy Thank you for your post. Doing a paper on Tecumseh right now. This lead is very helpful.
This is awesome ! Thank you for making this. This is how history should be represented in our society.
Modern Canadians don't have any clue who Brock is sadly, because history courses in schools only focus on WWI and WWII
simply, he was one of the people who mascaraed the Indians and stolen their lands.
It was taught, perhaps you missed it?
@@thenorthenbeauty3795 you're illiterate if you believe this.
In Alberta we barely touch ww1 and 2
@@thenorthenbeauty3795 What? How is that the impression you got? Did you even watch the video?
Will you also do the Seminole Wars?
@@pinchevulpes I know, bro. I'm of Seminole descent and I wish more people knew of the Unconquered.
@@camrendavis6650 i, for one, would love to know more 😊
Yes.
@@emilianozapata2530 that actually does sound really badass
@@emilianozapata2530 totally. Turn the whole of South Florida into a new territory! Have Creek (Muskogee) as the state language. Give it a tribal government! Oh so cool!
Wow, i didn't expect such a high quality content, from the amount of detail and objective stance to the beautiful art...
Great video. GERONIMO!
Thanks for this brilliant documentary... Tecumseh was an extraordinary person and a hero. William Tecumseh Sherman did well to have his name as a middle name and he lived up to Tecumseh's heroic name...
While I understand the admiration of Tecumseh, I'd be careful calling Sherman a hero. He raped and pillaged his way across the south. It was an effective tactic and may well have cemented Northern victory, but is was also horrific, bloody, and anything but heroic.
@@CaspertheSarcasticGhost but he also ensured that the South couldn't regroup to win the war and possibly reinstate slavery...
@@CaspertheSarcasticGhost and fyi I am Southern (I live in and I'm originally from Alabama)...
@@jamellfoster6029 I get that, I'm just saying what Sherman did, did more to cause Southern resentment and cement the bad parts of Southern culture than any other one person. His actions tarnished and damaged the moral victory of the North. He isn't a hero, he is a villain who happened to be on the right side.
@Kroi Albanoi wanted to end the war by making it so horrible no one could support rebelling anymore
This is so so good. Wow. The music at the end made me tear up. Well done. I’m sharing this with everyone I know. I had no idea.
If anyone is interested in a book about Tecumseh, I recommend: Tecumseh; A life by John Sugden. A great in depth biography.
My last name appears on page 210. He may have been a brother to my great, great, great, great grandfather. He and and his brother fought for the British as a Captains, with Tecumseh at the Battle of Fort Detroit during the War of 1812
Outstanding research.
Wow. Edit, what a great man.
What an amazing video! The story was so well told and beautifully depicted.
Thank you for your huge efforts into making such a long and detailed video, it’s insane quality free contents you are providing there!
Where do they talk about the embargo act
Sir Isaac Brock being a "national hero" might be a bit strong. I live in Brockville, the city named after him and I can honestly say I barely know about his exploits haha.
There is something so interesting about this darker side of US history, but I say this as a patriot and not an America-hater. In spite of not being a respected military power and even losing our capital to the British, history favored us anyway. Sometimes the heroes and the victors fight on two different sides, and I think it is important to recognize where our victory spoils came from and give the heroes their respect. I hate the idea that Americans have to be ashamed of our history, but it is also a great mistake to ignore it or pretend that we didn't form a massive continental empire on lands that were already occupied.
As weird as it sounds, this channel called "EmpLemon" has amazing videos that explain the American soul really well without shying away from the underbelly of US history or reducing it to nihilism.
Please make more videos about native people.
Whoever painted the birth of Tecumseh with the mountain in the background, has never been to Ohio, lol
“The great mountains of Ohio”
Eastern Ohio is very mountainous.
@@ramona14220 Yeah but here in the Appalachians our mountains don't get that big. Most of them are all around the 300 - 500 foot range. They hardly get any bigger than that unless you go up north, but still they don't even get over 2000 feet, which for any other of the other major mountain ranges of the world is nothing.
@@ronalddunne3413 the Appalachians run right through Ohio lol
Ohio River tales
The river got it name when a Shawnee Warrior stood atop a rocky bluff next to the river and remarked "Oh. High. Oh."
Often on roadways running along the base of these rocky bluffs signs will proclaim "Look out for fallen rock."
Apparently a Shawnee Maiden was in love with a young handsome warrior named "Fallen Rock." Unfortunately this warrior went away, breaking the heart of the Shawnee maiden.
She went about the Ohio River valley posting notices, "Look out for Fallen Rock" which exist to this day along the roads of the Ohio River Valley.
great presentation, really gives perspective on the battles without deifying any of the people involved as history tends to do
I live very close to where The Battle of Tippecanoe happened. My dad grew up there. The town is called Battleground, IN.
Tecumseh: Bask in your victory Harrison, for you will be remembered as a footnote
Harrison: Like that'll ever happen
Pnuemonia, typhoid and the presidency: *Allow us to introduce ourselves*
28March2021: Hah hah ! Harrison went down wheezing and coughing, snivelling. Tough guy captured by a "little bit of a cold". Tecumseh died with 100 times more nobility of both soul and socio-military leadership than: Harrison. Eternal honor and glory to Shawnee Chieftains! Long live Cornstalik, Tecumseh, and Tenskwatawa ! Honor and glory !
@@crawfordsmith7442 amazing comment 👏 cheers 🍻
@@crawfordsmith7442lmao certified member of the nevafeltapussy tribe. Rofl biggest incel on the internet.
Learned about the Sioux Wars in GCSE History and it opened my eyes to the struggles of indigenous peoples the world over at the hands of imperial powers like my own country. Now just as then, they're still fighting, and all power to them.
They aren’t still fighting and only idiots think that. There is nothing oppressing them because they are indigenous or because of race. Anyone of any race in any of those countries can succeed. There are poor people of every color so cut the bullshit. It’s pathetic.
@@mizzouranger134 I mean native American women are going missing at an alarming rate, instead of taking land its forcing infrastructure on OPPOSING people. (We could debate about DAPL) and also policies placed by the U.S. government hopping that eventually natives will breed themselves out and then treaties are no longer valid.
This is peak Kings and Generals
10/10. This is awesome. It’s just a funny observation at around 16:40 that “while smoking once, he all of a sudden..” type of PG rated storytelling when it’s common knowledge that he was purposefully hallucinating for enlightenment just like any ancient culture.
Tecumseh! A great leader and warrior. One of the greatest men to ever live.
He was a man on a mission.
he was also a general in the british army
@@patrickmulroney9452 No, he wasn’t a general in the British army.
"As a certain Napoleon Bonaparte..."
My favorite appearance of Napoleon Bonaparte in the 20th Century was in "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure."
never heard of him
This video is so cool. I’ve lived in Indiana all my life and I’ve never heard about the war between Harrison and the native Americans. It is cool to learn the history of the place you live.
Thanks for all you do.
Indiana is named in their honor, you know. . .
As someone from Ohio, I was forced to learn this stuff in great detail to foster a feeling of state pride.
Example: Describing St. Clair's defeat as the massacre of 1000 US soldiers (as this video did) is misleading. It was more like the massacre of 400 US soldiers, 500 untrained idiots who were too busy eating breakfast to have their guns with them, and a few hundred camp followers...
