    FUN FACTS:
    1. The Bananas were exported Tax Free, this meant that apart from the infrastructure upgrades, Honduras got the worst part of the deal.
    2. The job competition created from the success of these Banana Republics and the fact that the country was making little to no money compared to the Banana companies, sparked the “hatred” against non honduran workers, especially those from El Salvador, hatred and competition which would start the famous “Football War or 1000 hour war.”
    3. Manuel Bonilla actually won the elections fair and square, but since he was a character that the current president didn’t like, he didn’t get the job, Bonilla later started a military coup and placed himself as the president.
    4. Bonilla is considered a good president nevertheless, a lot of the infrastructure that was created during his 2 terms (yeah you heard that right 2 terms!) is still used today.
    5. The Plantations actually had a lot of influence on who would be the rich families until this day, a lot of arabs from palestine, turkey, etc. sold goods to the plantation workers and gained a lot of political influence and money, currently this families dominate the political and economical climate of Honduras.
    6. The famous railroad is no longer operational.
    7. Tourism is probably the 2nd most important part of Honduras economy but back on the colonial times, Honduras was a goldmine for different types of ores (lead, silver, etc.) these mines were economically exploded by Spain which would later have to pay Honduras ever certain amount of years money until this day to make up for the damage caused and everything they “stole”.
    8. Honduras is still one of the top banana producers.

    I'm not sure how I feel about marking a distinction between commercial imperialism, colonialism, and so on. The more I've learned about these various American companies and how they took over various islands and regions, and the more I learn about how the East India Trading Company and their own rise to power over an entire subcontinent, the more I realize they're just two waves of the same process. A private entity driven by profit takes control of a region in which a specific commodity is produced and uses their profits to take further control of the region or expand into new land without any real input from the country they originate from. The only difference is that once the East India Trading Company got big enough, the public started to have concerns about the sheer amount of power and influence they had until the state took control. That and a few devastating famines that killed millions, which, while they weren't caused by the Company (they don't control the weather after all), were certainly exacerbated by their extreme tax policies. Hell, during even the Great Bengal Famine of 1770, the EITC *raised* taxes in their region of control even further. Ten million people died, possibly more.
    Back to the point, there are far too many parallels between these two waves of imperialism for me to really feel a need to distinguish the two all that much.

    You asking about "imagine if Wallmart has it's own army" - the huge most influential enterprises have definitely special mercanary battle groups in multiple countries they get profits from. Further more since those companies are practically "the government" ("ruling elite"), controling the media and thus national minds, you can consider the national armies at least partially being corporate armies -> solving corporate "problems".

    A very similar thing happened here in Hawaii, look up “the big 5 Hawaii” to learn more about it, it’s been a while since I learned about it in school but they were the pineapple and sugar companies basically completely controlling Hawaii at the time. One of the big 5 sugar companies would actually become “dole” the pineapple company.

    I very much enjoy your reaction videos, thank you for remembering to pause the video while you're talking. I wish you could have been my history teacher when I was in high school! As a teacher myself now, I think it's great to let students know of the truth when it comes to history, and it can be quite the tea to listen and learn about!

    Subbed from the moment you legitimately encouraged viewers to check out the original. Honestly, you are the only youtuber I know who actually adds much of anything in the form of content. That others don't isn't necessarily a bad thing - even the slightest human interaction with a good video can allow you to appreciate it once again as if seeing it for the first time - but while I wouldn't ever desire greater restrictions on this sort of thing for the reasons outlined above, it doesn't particularly endear one to the clearly vulturine reactor.

    Found your vids a while ago (year and a half ago or so, only watched a couple, but subbed), and I’m recently coming back and binging hard. My favorite, and best teacher was my history teacher in high school. I had him my junior and senior year, and he made me love coming to class, which was very, very out of character for me. My point is, I’m glad kids have a teacher like you. I’m sure you receive TONS of appreciation already, but seriously man, you may not know the effect (good) teachers have on their students. I hope you continue to upload and make a boatload of that YT money, cuz ik you’re not getting paid enough for the work you do as a teacher lmao

    That thing about corporations having private armies is uncomfortably close to the situation in the US, where corporations have enough influence on government officials that they can largely get the military and police to back them up. Not quite the same, but not terribly different either

    Hey Mr. Terry! I don't know if you react to TV Series but there is an old 2002 MTV adult cartoon show called "Clone High" it's about famous historians clones in a high school drama style. You got Abe Lincoln, Joan of arc, Gandhi, Cleopatra, JFK, and more. It does have history jokes here and funny characters. It only has 13 episodes so I say check it out or if you have seen it maybe make a review about it.

      Yeah, but it would be really cool if it stayed there, it belonged there but it came here and fucked everything. All those migratory caravanas are a result from it, people leaving their countries out of poor living conditions, violence and low education it did not happened out of nowhere. Many college, highschool students and professors were kidnapped, tortured, burned alive or executed in public, even the Guatemalan representative for miss universe was kidnapped, tortured, raped and killed. You cannot compare what the us does today to what the US did to us yesterday. Pure savagery.
      Even the iconic and infamous Che Guevara at the time Ernesto Guevara saw how Guatemala's freedom was taken away by the US. If you want the villain story of El Che, there it is.
