4:40 Frederik IV was actually maybe our most hard-working monarch, and he cared deeply about his subjects. He would travel around the country to set up shop so that peasants could come with their complaints directly to him. People, no matter their class, were also free to approach him in the horse stables and outside the castle
I've lived in Italy for almost 3 years now. Whenever I feel adventurous and want to visit another European country, I have to first check out what Mr. History has to say. It never disappoints. :)
Awesome content man! Trying to learn about my heritage and turns out I am quarter Danish. I’m a mutt completely but that is the only percentage I know for sure
Viking hats generally did not have horns, but I understand why you display it that way as it's a very common misconception and people would understand it.
Fun fact most of the fredriks and christians and even some of our earlier kings. Is laid to rest in roskilde domkirke. A very old church. Those who are buried here are fx. Christian the 4th fredirik the third and queen magrete the first. A very fascinating place. And a must see when you visit denmark.
We didn't learn that slavery is wrong because of Christianity - the Bible condones slavery. Today the vast majority of Danes are Atheists, which has a better moral stand than any religion.
If the peat bog man is over 2,000 years old, the video is wrong to call him Danish as the Danes didnt come over until the Jutes and Angles (the later omitted from video) had left in the 5th cent.
2 things. You probably should have mentioned 1864, as well as the colonial footprint of denmark on the globe. Denmark was a massive part of "the slave trade" as well as having colonies all over the world
Not that important other than the shape of the country. It was historically a duchy and governed different from rest of Denmark. The importance of The Schleswig Wars has likely highly embellished, remember that this is the time of Nationalism and the "Danish Golden Age"(Romanticism). The Napoleonic Wars was in comparison much more important to Denmark as a whole.
As for the thralls... While society was relying on yhem in some aspects, they were also a significant psrtnof armies, but with the desire to be so. While a slave, if you showed enough bravery and courage to stand infront of a free man, you yourself would be s free man.
We Are the 12th biggest country on earth if we take greenland into account lol I would say you should had talked about the war in 1864. We lost 2/5 of our country due to prussia/germany and gained it back in 1920
Well some of it at least. The southern part os Schleswig decided by a small majority to stay German so there's that. Way back in the day when Schleswig and Holstein were countries under the danish crown (in a similar manner to Greenland and the Faroe Islands today) the border stretched as far as Altona which is now a part of the Metropolis of Hamburg!
Not a good video, completely ignoring historical issues, like the battle of Dybbøl banke (1864) or how Greenland have become a part of the kingdom of Denmark.
you forgot the war of 1864, a very important loss for Denmark
To say it was important is quite the understatement, it literally reshaped the politics completely, both internal and external.
Ja meget vigtigt han skulde da have taget det med
And the labour struggle of 1899 callanging democracy to this day.
Nah its fine
What is this war? And what is its impact?

Eyy! exactly what I'm looking for in a history video. Both images and maps, and a little comedy. well done
The king is back
Thank you for a quick,competent run through of Denmark.
you almost said all the danish things perfectly much better then other youtubers atleast
finally found a history video that is interesting and entertaining! this deserves so much more attention!!
Honestly one of the best videos I've ever seen, you deserve more recognition my guy.
I'm quite disappointed that the 1864 war isn't in this. It is a very significant part of danish history in Denmark.
We learned about this is school but this is sm faster and better 🥸

I've played enough Total War to know that Christian III and Christian IV were excommunicado a firm papal indulgence

Shelswig and Holstein 2 wars between Denmark and Prussia ,Austria .Love from Normandy
Ohh History so many things has been forgotten so few things has been remembered ............
google map was made by 2 danish brothers
You forgot the Schlewig Wars… It’s literally the most important part of modern Danish history, as it transformed the Denmark everyone knows today.
Not that important other than the shape of the country. It was historically a duchy and governed different from rest of Denmark.

@@fastertove Culturally it was probably the most important war we have taken part of, exept for the cold war of course
I already gave an example of a more important war. @@thecutebearslaboratory111
Hi hi! 🇩🇰
im danish and just wanna tu 4 makin us appear awesome!
Actually real vikings didn't wear horns or their helmets.
As for the thralls...
While society was relying on yhem in some aspects, they were also a significant psrtnof armies, but with the desire to be so.
While a slave, if you showed enough bravery and courage to stand infront of a free man, you yourself would be s free man.
Whar about Christian IV or IX

Thrall does not = slave
Yes it does, but slavery in the ancient world wasn't like the plantation slavery we see depicted in movies and TV.
Thralls were definitely slaves.

Tycho Brahe THE one percent
Denmark: We going to take all Scandinavia!!
