@@bibby1391 It’s pretty easy. Mostly logical questions. They basically give you the answers in the article you’re supposed to read, before answering the questions (sorry, worded that sentence terribly 🤣). Just gotta find them. 😁 I think you’ll do great! Let me know how you do, if you don’t mind. I love hearing success stories!!
I'm just watching this for fun, because I fell in love with your videos when I was hardcore struggling in calculus. Now that I'm done with school, I can actually enjoy these :)
I didn't go to high school and don't know a lot about history, but am starting a college class on history today. This overview was SUPER helpful, thank you!
@@zoom7306 no. I did not go to school before college . I was actually homeless from birth until my first year of college about 22 ish I think. I tested out of a fair amount, took self paid remedial classes for the rest of the requirements.
First Khan video I watched, I wish I'd seen this when I was learning this in school. You're so specific and so clear, thanks so much! Please do more history videos.
Thank you, that kind of helped me a little. I'm taking a super difficult U.S History course online that is required before I start my Masters program. So far I did bad on the first two quizzes, and there is soooooo much information, you just touched on the basics, well this class goes in super detail and my mind is very exhausted from all of it. But your video was interesting to watch.
Im taking a united state history course soon! This gave me plenty of motivation and interest to be able to articulate all you have said on my own. I looked up information as you talked about time periods and found it a fun learning experience. Thanks for making this!
So happy you made these videos. I don't remember anything from elementary school and high school didn't teach me any of this stuff. This is the only thing I can use to learn this stuff
WOW-- it is sure most of those who comment do not care to learn , and cheat their selves out of so much. Thanks for the lessons -- I appreciate you work.
I primarily use your videos for biology (coming up with better ways to present these ideas to my classmates in study group) , but I am amazed that you do other subjects as well. Very informative in an area that I know nothing about--thanks this is really great stuff!
(In accordance to what you said about the US-Mexican war) We conducted military drills near Mexico in territory that we believed was ours, and the Mexican army fired the first shots by shooting at a patrol. It's just like what we do today, a country does something we don't like, so we send our military near it to conduct military operations.
The important question for the future in this case is not "can it happen again?" Rather, it is " can it be stopped?" For the genocide in the "Americas", and in other places where the world's indigenous peoples survive, has never really ceased.
That was considerably more intresting than the English history I'm taught at school, all it is is "Well this king f'd this up, and this king f'd this up"
In fairness, the Seven Years War was not just the British vs French. It was the British/Prussians/Portugal/other german states vs France/Austria/Russia/Sweden and later Spain
I find it amusing that many people recognize its an overview, but then have to add what he missed. He knows what he missed, he said himself it was a 30K ft. overview and he skipped huge amounts of time. Just let him do his videos on his own. Nice work on this one by the way, very interesting to me, good basic review :]
I wanna thank you because I like your videos, they're really helpful, but I wish you could make other videos where there is more details, I'll be so grateful... thank you again
@volksline9 It was still after the war officially ended, and even though the losses where 386 British to 55 Americans, the battle did not change the fact that the US lost or the fact that the US lost about 15 000 soldiers when the British North American forces only lost 4 921 soldiers.
+carlos chavarria Actually Davey J was referring more to the nature of studying history itself... Being open isn't really creating your own interpretation of history, if we are to set the basic premises of the comment in more concrete terms.
Given the legal definition of constitutor, the main part of the US constitution are the items pertaining to "the Debt" repayment according to international laws & treaties. The constitution says that repayment shall be done by creating any taxes necessary to enable this repayment. Note that legal terms are denoted by unusual letter capitalization throughout documents written by lawyers in the legalese rather than plain English language words. Google (us constitution pdf) then search Debt.
I realize this is a short summary, but you didn't include the significance of the results of the 7 years war when France chose to keep the Sugar islands (and their revenue) over the canadian territories. The historical lesson to be learned from France choosing tiny islands because of short term sugar revenues over the long term revenues of the country of Canada cannot be understated :) thanks for posting
This is fantastic! The few things that threw me off 1) Texas independence had a lot more issues than slavery. It had to do with federalism vs. centralism and various rights. Not only slavery. 2) Lincoln died after the war ended. But awesome video!
love the video and really appreciate the effort put into covering so much. just a little thing that bothered me: the emancipation proclamation only proclaimed freedom for slaves who were part of the Confederate states, so states like Missouri were left alone
I'll go through the details the details then, The Sugar Act The Townshend Acts And The Tea Act in that order which summarily led to the Boston Tea Party.
Not only those, but there were a bunch of wars in the meantime; including at least *four* "French and Indian Wars" so to speak, and in about 1676 "King Philips' War" that both completely wrecked the economy of New England and led to the demise of the Algonquin culture in the bulk of New England, and paved the way for the formation of New England as a major part of the USA.
The US sailors who where forced into the Royal Navy where members of the Royal Navy who deserted during time of war, the British had every right to take them back.
Please note that Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation only freed the slaves in the rebel states. He didn't want to anger the border states of Kentucky and Maryland who were still on the Union's side.
@Raajur But the US is the one who started the war and the US is the one that was repelled (3 states where occupied when the war ended, but given back because of the peace treaty).
Your take on the Louisiana Purchase was interesting. Your take on the civil war was third grade level, however. Lincoln hated slaves, Atlanta burned to the ground, women were raped, Lincoln bribed elections, Lincoln suspended Habeas Corpus, issued fiat currency, I could go on and on. The staggering death toll is just scracthing the surface. The civil war had nothing to do with slavery. Lincoln threatened to double the tariff.
I created a trivia game from this video. See how high your score can get. I'm trying to get time to enhance it to allow two people to play each other. (Also need to put on volume control :)
As recently as 1986, the Commission on Human Rights of the Organization of American States observed that 40,000 people had simply "disappeared" in Guatemala during the preceding fifteen years.
Yes, the French fleet stopped the relief of Yorktown. Franch Spanish and Dutch forces attacked British overseas possessions, causing GB to divert forces from the Colonies
@volksline9 Also the Battle of New Orleans was over a year after the war ended, so it can't be called an american victory during the war but an american victory during a British incursion.
i'll be an exchange student in the states this fall. it is very helpful! pls comment down belo if you have any advices for an exchange studetnt. that will be also very helpful!
I know this is just an overview, but you should really consider the impact of central banking on US history. I don't think it is coincidental that the War of 1812 began after the charter for the first bank expired in 1811.
You forgot to mention that many emigrated out of religious persecution. Also, many starved because they were on a communitarian system that didn't recognize property rights. I'm cringing over what you might say later about the civil war but I must cook dinner now.
@dhatipo i havent read a single page of american pagent or any of the other supplementary readings but PRINCETON REVIEW! omg. i'm reading that atm and it helped me get a reasonably high grade on a full mock exam 67/80 multiple choice 7 dbq 3/4 on frqs... lol
Watching this the night before I take my final Social Studies HiSET test! 😁👍
UPDATE: I graduated! Passed all my tests, thank You Jesus!
and khan.....
Congratulations!
Was it hard? I’m at the highest level in reading, the advisors think I’ll pass the reading portion but I don’t know why they think that.

I didn't go to high school and don't know a lot about history, but am starting a college class on history today. This overview was SUPER helpful, thank you!
how do u go to University but not to highschool, dont you need to participate in high school to get into college?
@@zoom7306 no. I did not go to school before college . I was actually homeless from birth until my first year of college about 22 ish I think. I tested out of a fair amount, took self paid remedial classes for the rest of the requirements.
@@LaughingSeraphim oh, good for you! (lol my comment is over a year old and i got a reply)
I have no reason whatsoever to be here... and I love it.
So... whos taking it tomorrow lol
this friday
Have an inline class and the essay is being shared with the class tmrrw and i havent done it yet

I'm using this to study for my midterm😛
You'll fail.
I'm taking AP
How’d that midterm go
I took a US history class in my French university and it was very helpful thanks!!
see, this is undoubtedly what is going to help me do well on my history final tomorrow. you're a hero man.
Im taking a united state history course soon! This gave me plenty of motivation and interest to be able to articulate all you have said on my own. I looked up information as you talked about time periods and found it a fun learning experience. Thanks for making this!
I'm studying for the Praxis II exam and this is a great refresher.....This video is the bomb, you are my hero !!!!
Anyone else trying to figure out a whole semester in a day? Or it that just me...?
U not alone bro
Lol with every subject
I am extremely interested in all types of history. I really wish you would do more history =]
So happy you made these videos. I don't remember anything from elementary school and high school didn't teach me any of this stuff. This is the only thing I can use to learn this stuff
More American History before the APUSH test this year would be so great. You should definitely begin working on history.
Khan Academy > Crash Course
+Ryan Mooney Certainly less pretentious. However, how does it compare to Hip Hughes?
Very good lecture, I wish my history teacher was half as enthusiastic as you are.
Who gave the video a thumbs down? Seriously... Must have been a teacher.. (Sal is taking over education single handedly) :P
I seriously wish i had this for my AP US History exam last year. it would have been great review.
Reading a history book is great, but you also need a great teacher. This is a great place to learn history. June 2024. USA
Khan Academy being used as substitute lesson's by my teacher is why I'm here.
Thanks so much!! I have an exam tomorrow on exactly this part of American history, it's really useful!
This is very informative. Impressive summarization of the us history.
WOW-- it is sure most of those who comment do not care to learn , and cheat their selves out of so much. Thanks for the lessons -- I appreciate you work.
mines on thursday! i agree this was a great refresher
@bunnygopoke I went to his site and I couldn't believe it was Sal doing ALL of the videos. He knows so much stuff, it blows my mind.
I primarily use your videos for biology (coming up with better ways to present these ideas to my classmates in study group) , but I am amazed that you do other subjects as well. Very informative in an area that I know nothing about--thanks this is really great stuff!
What the hey, this is very informative. At a glance history. Thank you.
(In accordance to what you said about the US-Mexican war) We conducted military drills near Mexico in territory that we believed was ours, and the Mexican army fired the first shots by shooting at a patrol.

THE REAL HISTORY CAN NEVER BE WRITTEN NOBODY CAN TAKE IT AWAY!
Great overview. Your calculus and bio lessons really helped me a lot last year :)
That was considerably more intresting than the English history I'm taught at school, all it is is "Well this king f'd this up, and this king f'd this up"
Taking us history this summer for college. I took AP us history during high school and got 90s so I should be good
Khanacademy rocks!
i'm learning more from this video than my APUSH teacher taught me all year..
Why are people saying that this is not "true" and only "adequate"? He fit over a hundred years of history in 18 minutes.
In fairness, the Seven Years War was not just the British vs French. It was the British/Prussians/Portugal/other german states vs France/Austria/Russia/Sweden and later Spain

This is great man.

This is my favorite episode of drunk history.
History is very much open to interpretation, and this talk is a good example of that. Definitely embellishes and demeans in several areas.
That is YOUR interpretation... Oh the irony.
+carlos chavarria Actually Davey J was referring more to the nature of studying history itself... Being open isn't really creating your own interpretation of history, if we are to set the basic premises of the comment in more concrete terms.
this lecture gave me more information, in an easy to understand way, then a week of my history class would have ever.
Amazing video! Thank you(:
Thats a real helpful video.
Please, Make Tutorial about 1983 Korean Missile Crisis ASAP.

Khan, please go more in-depth in U.S history, Im taking an ap class and this video helped a lot for the general idea.

This is a critical detail that students will be tested on
love the video and really appreciate the effort put into covering so much. just a little thing that bothered me: the emancipation proclamation only proclaimed freedom for slaves who were part of the Confederate states, so states like Missouri were left alone
i find this more useful than actually going to school.....
im a jounear and i like to say thanks the taks test is next week and i need alot of information about the US history section so i can pass this
I'll go through the details the details then,
The Sugar Act
The Townshend Acts
And The Tea Act in that order which summarily led to the Boston Tea Party.
Not only those, but there were a bunch of wars in the meantime; including at least *four* "French and Indian Wars" so to speak, and in about 1676 "King Philips' War" that both completely wrecked the economy of New England and led to the demise of the Algonquin culture in the bulk of New England, and paved the way for the formation of New England as a major part of the USA.
Solid refresher on dates and events, did nothing to explain why any of it mattered. I hope the other videos are better.
The US sailors who where forced into the Royal Navy where members of the Royal Navy who deserted during time of war, the British had every right to take them back.
all I have to do for today's history assignment is watch this video and write down the events that occured. LOL easiest assignment ever.
USING THIS FOR MY CBEST TX FOR EVERYTHING ...I DO ADMIRE U SIR
Wow! What an Video Sal, Keep It up.!!
Yes! Thank you for making more history videos!!!
Please note that Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation only freed the slaves in the rebel states. He didn't want to anger the border states of Kentucky and Maryland who were still on the Union's side.
New subjects! Awesome!
Can't wait for the Computer Science videos!
this is alot of help! My oral English final is tomorrow and the Theme is USA. Thanks a lot for the help! (Y)
@Raajur But the US is the one who started the war and the US is the one that was repelled (3 states where occupied when the war ended, but given back because of the peace treaty).

thanks for the great overview - perfect for my 7th grade son
@volksline9 Also the Battle of New Orleans was over a year after the war ended, so it can't be called an american victory during the war but an american victory during a British incursion.
Great job. I'm curious though why you don't mention noncontiguous territorial acquisition i.e. Pacific and carribean islands.
i'll be an exchange student in the states this fall. it is very helpful!
pls comment down belo if you have any advices for an exchange studetnt. that will be also very helpful!
THANKS ALOT... it helped me for my AP class
thanks khan...ur the best
It's true. It's why states like Mississippi and other southern states had a hard time entering the union as a state.
@ThePreachingArtist I agree! There needs to be more perspectives taught to these students!
ty for this i have a test tomorrow on everything from last year and i learned nothing cuz it was virtual 🙏🙏
Please, Make Tutorial about 1983 Korean Missile Crisis.
can anyone help me with answering this question "which settlement had the greatest influence on further settlements?"
I liked it, I have learnt more with this video, thank you!
So is there a way that I could come work for this academy?! I could totally help you do all of these videos :)
I know this is just an overview, but you should really consider the impact of central banking on US history. I don't think it is coincidental that the War of 1812 began after the charter for the first bank expired in 1811.
Good news! I passed and got the extra credit question right 🥳
i love your videos they help me in my homework
You forgot to mention that many emigrated out of religious persecution. Also, many starved because they were on a communitarian system that didn't recognize property rights. I'm cringing over what you might say later about the civil war but I must cook dinner now.
Would it be possible to make some videos focused on all the US presidents (personal life and presidency)?
This is super helpful for apush, thanks! :)
I'm Indian, currently living in London learning about American history
Thank you for this video it really helped a lot !
Sal, Are you saying there were two Treaty of Paris drafted in 1763 and 1783 or did they revise the first one?
Why are there two Treaties of Paris, one in 1763 and another in 1783?
