      Same. This is where it all began, and you can clearly see how much his editing skills have improved, but you can also see certain techniques that he still practices today. He even used the punch effect when Germany invaded Belgium at 2:28. And also you could see the use of the same red arrows he uses today.

      @Cyber_Spartan 300 Ikr in fact in ww2 it was The Germans VS the British, French, Russia, USA. Germanys main allies: Italy and Japan.
      Italy: "We are such a tough country that the Germans actually want us. So we actually raided the small British island British Somaliland as our one only success in the war" (which the British seized back within a year).
      Japan: Basically had its own plans, didn't really like Germany and they didn't even fight with them even when they were on the same battlefield. Did not sink any Russian ships full of USA weapons to support Russia against Germany which led to their own downfall.
      If the Germans had one good ally that worked together then I'm pretty sure it would be a very even war.

    I think we should share oversimplified videos in schools. Despite being oversimplified, he does give out a lot of good information, but not just that, he does it in an entertaining way.

    Funfact:
    The German General Paul von Lettow-Vorbeck held out for 4 years with 14.000 soldiers (3000 Germans and 11.000 Africans or Askaris) against 300.000 British soldiers despite being cut off from any supply line.
    He did this by being a brilliant strategist who moved his troops quickly and efficiently but also by treating his African troops as equals to the other Germans. During the Spanish Flu, when rations dwindled, only few soldiers deserted since they had all become so loyal and attached to von Lettow-Vorbeck.
    Decades later, in 1964 when von Lettow-Vorbeck died, the West-German Bundestag (parliament) decided to give back dated pay to all the surviving Askaris. So, a banker was flown to Mwanza at Lake Victoria who set up a provisional cashier‘s office. 350 former soldiers returned but only few of them could present documents, which von Lettow-Vorbeck had handed them out by the end of the war, to prove that they had served. So instead, others showed their uniforms to prove their service but there were still many left with no evidence. Then, the cashier had an idea: He gave all the men a broomstick and ordered them to perform the Prussian/German drill like they would‘ve done with a weapon. Not a single one of them failed the test and they were given their pay.
