What an in-depth analysis of the Seven Years' War! It's astonishing to see how profoundly this conflict influenced the world. Fantastic job and truly captivating!
The Anglo-Portuguese Treaty between King Richard II of England and King John I of Portugal was ratified at Windsor in 9th May 1386. Probably the oldest historical alliance between two nation. It is still in effect to this day!
Captain James Cook was a young officer who participated in the New France battles including the taking of Louisbourg in Cape Breton. His survey and chart of the port was so good that it attracted the attention of the Admiralty, which led to his stellar career.
Really fascinating to watch. This really explains the context of the American revolutionary war and the background of the Napoleonic wars. Keep up the great work.
These things called "museums" have pretty paintings posted on their websites, maybe you can get out of your mom's basement and look at some of these sites. Most major cities in Europe have one of these "museums".
An interesting take away from this “First Global War” is the British are kinda the bad guys for provoking the whole conflict with France and expecting their colonies to pick up the bill of their unprovoked war. It’s ironic that Great Britain’s first battle in The 7 Year’s War/French and Indian War was lead by George Washington himself which resulted in a defeat for the British at the Battle of Fort Necessity on July 3, 1754 and the abandonment of the Fort the following day. 22 years later on July 4, 1776 Great Britain would suffer their worst defeat in North America with the Colonies declaring their independence.

The Seven Years' War, often dubbed the first "world war" due to its global scale, involved major European powers clashing from 1756 to 1763 across continents from Europe to North America and Asia. A **history documentary** exploring this period reveals how its outcome reshaped colonial empires, significantly altering global power dynamics and paving the way for the American Revolution.

It's all perspective. If you want to talk about evil I noticed your profile pic is Napoleon, a hero to many but his actions are that of a villan and cost the lives of hundreds of thousands. Side note because it ties in, no Napoleon means no German unification.
they really did expand a great deal of energy, lives and money to basically preserve the status quo as well as they could, what a waste undending wars, and whenever one nation seemed ot emerge on top, all the others turned on them, and so on, and so forth. Imagine spending so much ressources for the situation to almost always be reverted to the status quo ante bellum, silly european wars
They weren't silly at the time or so it seemed it took WW1 to bring it home, and don't forget the Napoleonic wars where Europe continued to tear itself apart.

One of the most important events in human history. Yet very few have even heard of it. Thanks for this amazing work!
Yes, agreed.
Also how many have ever heard of the Thirty Years War?
@@track1949Many of us history buffs but that’s about it.
My favorite history channel by far. The narration, music, everything is perfect.

Netherlands participated in a lot of battles against Spain as wel
I honestly consider this to be the actual World War 1. Or more like World War 0.
I said this since the 7th Grade that this conflict could be described as a WW
Portugal fought in Brazil, the French, the Dutch, British corsairs and German intempts and always won.
Portugal ballin 🤑
Don't forget the Ottomans and the Umayyad Caliphate . We fair well on average when outnumbered. It's when we have the bigger numbers that things get dodgy :P
British corsairs? Must be a translation thing. In English corsairs means Muslim pirates specifically.
nice
Good thing I won the war by myself

If this is the entire history of the seven years war why isn't the video seven years long? I don't think it's the entire history....
That Washington played the long game and won.

When FRANCE was the bad guy in a World War instead of Germany
Germany was NOT the bad guy in WW1.
France was the main power of Europe before Germany existed so it's makes sense
They also were in ww1
there were no bad or good guys back then.
