@7:05 Joseph Smith appointed James Strang as his successor, not Brigham Young. That decision has been upheld by the courts within the United States of America and is the reason why Strang's followers continue to use the group's original name of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints while Brigham Young was compelled to change the name to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Therefore, it is both historically and legally incorrect to refer to Young as the "2nd leader" as you did.
Please post links to these charts
@@GgdivhjkjlStrang certainly claimed that Joseph Smith appointed him as successor, but that claim is based on a dubious document that makes little sense in the history of the Church generally. I’m curious which court cases you believe back that claim up. The hyphen was added to make the name of the church grammatically correct-it had nothing to do with the Strangites’ claims to use of the name.

I am so glad one of my charts was mentioned! My chart was number 7 in the Top 10. I enjoyed making that one in particular, as I was really ecstatic about finding my connections to the Bourbons.
Which one is it and when does it appears?
@@erdood3235 19:56
Love the work! What software or templates do you use to make the charts?
@@erdood323519:57
@@erdood3235it was number 7
Thanks for the incredible shoutout Matt! Now that I’ve been officially named the “most prolific chart maker” my life’s work is complete.
In all seriousness though, I consider my Fictional Monarchs Timeline to be the worst chart I made this year. Out of all my charts I still have no clue how this one got so popular.
A giggle will always fair well.
I realize that this might be a difficult one but I was wondering recently if anyone has thought of doing a chart the evolution of modern music and its origins.
Blues, jazz, folk, rock, punk, country, hip-hop etc, how they may have influenced each other and where they began to diverge. It could be really cool if there are any music scholars out there who might be interested in taking that on.
Just a thought.
I thought the same thing but about artistic periods in art history. I don't know if there's any out there already, but I think it could be really cool
This made me think of the rock music chart that briefly appears on the movie “school of rock”
Even edm alone would be interesting to look into. There is also a "history of emo" video out there and its weird to see that post 2010's emo replicates early 90s midwest emo. I couldnt imagine how cool it would be to see the same kind of grouping on a massive scale.
MusicMap might be what you're looking for!
@@dogdicer1153 how does a gun taste?
Matt slowly writing himself out of a job by making this haha, but seriously it's impressive how close fans have gotten to the style of your work
Foxhole related chart? Length of the wars compared or something? Would love to see you try that lol

Congrats to everyone who was featured, well done and some truly quality charts. Happy to be a part of a fab community (even if some of you love memes :P). But must say Matt, no featuring for geust53's Families of Western Nobility :O, that chart is truly insane (me, Triplet and Gervais all in agreement there xD). Good to see you back and on the mend though :), hope geust53 gets a special video to itself, as it deserves it heh.
WOW! I somehow missed even seeing that one. Most likely because it didn't get a preview image due to the enormous size, which is unfortunate because that probably means others missed it too. Otherwise, I suspect it would have received more upvotes. Anyway, will try to shout it out somehow in future.
Oh my god I downloaded that chart just now it is HUGE! I can't even imagine how long that single chart must've taken, it really deserves a lot more upvotes
These are awesome, three cheers to their creators
Hope you're feeling better Matt, happy new year
Cambrian Chronicles would love the welsh chart
Great work everyone! Glad to hear you are feeling better Matt.
Very happy to see the Welsh one winning! That was the one I immediately found most interesting -- llongyfarchiadau mawr!
It's a great combination of not-so-well known content and a nice, sleek look. It definitely was my favourite, too. :)
I love your charts wish I can see more behind the scenes demos hope you are doing well!
The alternative succession to English/British crown is interesting. Its nice to see it all on one chart.
Also the same with the German royals, its nice to see them too all on one chart (both HRE, Kings and Dukes)
I love how each second of the video sound and image is intentional and full of dedication
I should've sent in my family tree. It has over 2,000 people on it, including Louis XIV, Lightfoot Harry Lee, Geronimo, Bushrod Washington, and Charlemagne. It also traces back to the late 3rd century on some branches.
I was very careful to make sure the records are accurate, but there's also a "fun" section that includes mythical lineages tracing back from early kings to ancient gods. I use dotted lines for adoption and gold for mythical or unconfirmed branches, while each family branch has its own color
Wow!
May I ask what software you use?
Pretty cool!
I don't watch a lot of your content, so this was my first time seeing a yearly recap-style video.
Quite a few of these charts made me go, “wow, this is really useful!”
Now, I'm not asking with intent to ever do this (had I gone on to become a teacher, I would have, though), but would it be possible to either buy or get an editable copy of a chart, if one wanted to translate/localize the names/titles?
I’m actually a descendant of ‘naked nailor ‘ , my grandma on my dads side had the name of nailor before she married and changed it to Weckhorst, which is a line coming from Norway, and I am the first born male heir of and carry that family’s ceremonial blade, which is small, but quite awesome
SERIOUSLY, your channel has been a god-sent for my autistic mind. It’s very thought out and clear. I appreciate it especially as I research my family tree.
Thank you. You've inspired me to create my own channel on charting!
Am now waiting for a chart on channeling.
Really some great artwork and surely lots of effort and research put into these charts! Great job!
I’m fairly sure that ‘Queen Mother’ was a *title*, not a category, invented for Elizabeth of York in 1952 (the current king’s grandmother) and refers to being the mother of the queen who had the same name (ie ‘queen’s mother’), rather than mother of the monarch. The intention was to avoid confusion as otherwise she would have been called ‘Queen Elizabeth’ following tradition.
It was one of those bits of trivia I remember from when she died in 2002. Citation needed!
In general, the mother of a reigning monarch has been called a queen mother in history books. That may or may not apply to the titles of the British monarchy; I don't know one way or the other.
@@joshuaharper372that would just be ‘queen’, as in Queen Mary (not the ship) - she wasn’t referred to as queen mother. There can be more than one queen at the same time but only one queen regnant.
@@jbaldwin1970So this would be another term to distinguish among queens. Regnant, consort, mother.
@@Spearca except that it was a title created specifically for Elizabeth, the mother of the regnant queen, to avoid confusion as they both had the same name, and not one that is used otherwise. For example, if Elizabeth II had abdicated she wouldn’t have been called ‘King Mother’
If Elizabeth II had chosen a different name (as monarchs can, like popes - Charles for a while was rumoured to have considered taking the name George) then there would have been no ‘Queen Mother’
Dear Matt ,I am glad to see new videos for useful charts , I feel your health is getting better , I like all your work, happy new year ,best wishes.
Im so excited for this episode, I look forward to it every year you do one.
Happy New Year Matt 🎉
Those are so awesome, incredible work !
An odd note about the Smith extended genealogy, specifically over on the Orson Scott Card side-line. Hugh B. Brown, who appears on the chart as Zola's father, was one of the most notable liberals in LDS church leadership in the mid 20th century. There was a long-running, pointed back-and-forth between him and Ezra Taft Benson (also on the chart) over Benson's promoting the John Birch Society while serving in his church post.
Why does it have a dotted line to a woman not Emma Hale to the right of Smith? Odd way to connect more people that aren't really connected genealogically.
@@mrXOwarrior Desdemona Fuller was one of Joseph Smith Jr.'s plural wives. After his death, she became one of Ezra T. Benson's plural wives. The dotted lines represent marriages, and in this case they show just how interconnected prominent LDS/Mormon families have been throughout their history.
I’ve seen this video 2-3 times already but this is the first time I realized you said ”Porvoo”. I had forgotten the communion between the Lutheran Church of Finland and many Anglican Churches, because it is mostly just a footnote in our religious studies at school.
Matt, hope you have reclaimed good health. your style of speech is nice and easy. keep up the good work!
At 17:10, Ferdinando Stanley is my eighth cousin through his father’s side.
Nice choises. The Welsh monarchs I like for the topic, the Arab script one is just gorgeous.
I was looking forward to seeing the Welsh one in detail then to see it’s being printed - wow!!
Awesome charts everyone very interesting!
What a brilliant community we have!
23:00 Manwe is King of Arda ("the world"/"earth"), not just Valinor (a continent).
My latest chart appeared in the intro! Yaaay!
This was exactly what I needed at 3 am
Glad I found this channel
Very cool that people made their own charts yes
I would be interested in hearing an episode on the Welsh Monarchs!
This is always a huge favorite with me - I'm liking it even before I have seen it!
this is an interesting chart. thanks for sharing.
Very happy Welshman here! Looking forward to receiving my Welsh monarchs chart. Da iawn to the creator.😁
Glad to see my chart was one of your personal favourites :D, makes me regret that i forgot to upload the improved version...😅
Beautiful ❤
That Australian chart is amazing. It is such broad coverage and still organized enough to remain understandable. Props to whomever did that one.
The follow-up chart will show the habitats of the top 100 deadliest creatures in Australia. Be prepared for a LOT of overlap.
Thanks for the video 👍🏻
Best wishes for a full recovery, Matt!
Is there a video talking about different chart development software? I want to get one of your British history timelines and use pushpins to mark my ancestors locations in time (I'm a genealogist, what a nerd, right?)
Just bought the German family tree. So glad that I got the notification for this video or I would've missed it 😊😊😊
My family tree looks like two brambles grafted onto a stump.
Love them. You should sell copies with them!
Also, do a pepper chart please 😊
Happy New Year Everyone 😄
awesome charts
Matt it's nice to see you back
Could you make a video about the differences between the different rites in the Catholic Church, like in the 2nd shown chart, explaining how and why they differ? Seems like an interesting video topic.
If it's possible you should do a "Who would be the heir of Genghis Khan" video, that would be awesome!
I know this is not what you wanted but "Every Significant Mongol Successor State; How The Mongols Fell in 1857" is the closest to what you asked for.
@@sprejxen7659 Wow, thank you very much!
11:14 I was in search of a chart like this and just love this one. The Hijazi Script is my favorite one because it was used to write the Noble Qur’ān for the first time!
Happy New Year
Di-dah-chee no.
It’s the Did-uh-Kay.
It's incredible how the community can make awesome charts! Which program do you do the charts on?(Sorry if I made a writing error, i´m brazilian)
There's more info on the subreddit FAQ, but he uses Adobe Illustrator
The Earl Grosvenor must have really loved puns...
These charts show the power of History and Data combined!
Salute to the every designer.
Wow, all of them did great work! I liked the horse one, i wasnt expecting that. I grew up going to santa anita with my grandma so i particularly liked that one. And i agree with it being cruel as much as i liked seeing the horses. And when a horse breaks a leg they put them down so its mean. I like the Wales, if i get money Id buy that one. And the Australia was so complete. Im on reddit so Ill join the community. Ive been working on my genealogy and i have a lot of lines that fill in on some charts. I want to enter for this year. I have some lost lines for the royal charts. We ended up in Nebraska during the germans and durch settling. And it turned out my grandma is directly from the Danish royal line and it turns out its my grandpa who has a close direct rotlyal line it doesnt go back far to get to royalty. And we go back to the plantagenants and its solid. I thought we were going to be poor Scots lol. so i guess my grandma had a little money to keep them comfortable. But we didnt grow up with money. Im actually disabled on SSDI and on affordable housing. So thats what happened to some royal lines lol. Everyone else just lives i guess middle class definitely not rich lol. Whats funny though is my mom, grandma and great grandma stuck to royal danish traditions like things with marriage. So i had a very odd pre marriage meeting with my ex and his parents. Its a genealogy meeting. And the parents go over the genealogy before approving the marriage. My ex asked my dad first to without me knowing. So his family followed Spaniard traditions.
Putting a seriously injured horse down being mean is incredibly thin on thought. It's an outside ignorant view that is understandable in the view of human life post human dependence on horses for travel and power for moving things.
@@ChloroformCoughdrop it's a comment section, get a grip.
It's an ignorant comment and needed response.
Hope the Welsh Chart got checked for accuracy by Cambrian Chronicles. 🤔
This year I made a family tree of the Ancient & Noble House of Black (with my own personal headcanons added in....including resurrecting some characters I didn't want to die)
Charts are fun
Interesting to see the family tree of Joseph Smith, as I am descended from the Mack family.
I'm just grateful that you are doing well man. Let us know about how your healths doing. Hope all is well.❤
Epic stuff.
*Communion* means something more specific than _a lot in common_ . It means that they consider their practices and beliefs to be acceptable to each other. There is a theological meaning too--in that their communion sacrament is valid and reciprocal. They are one body in Christ.
Never thought I’d see a horse family tree going back 300 years
I wonder if Mister Ed is on there somewhere?
Question! How do all these submissions make their charts look just like the official ones? Is there some kind of template document accessible?
There’s a tutorial video somewhere on the channel where he goes through making one and shares which program he uses, so people are probably referencing that
Imagine trying to research all those denominations before the Internet, writing letters to each and hoping to get a response.
Fun fact, the 'Prince' of Wales although a subservient title to the King of England these days, was in fact an arguably higher title, as the first 'Prince' of Wales rules when Wales have tens of Kings with wildly varying size Kingdoms, but 'Prince' or 'Princep' indicated they were not merely another welsh king, but rather the primary ruler of Wales, and drew inspiration from the title which several early Roman Emperors used.
The Sumerian King List also has several other Kings who should probably be mentioned in the longest reigning kings. Apparently, Sumerians lived a long time.
And as for Joe Biden's Odin connection, it's *fictional* in the sense it's not necessarily true in the historic sense, but it is true to historic *legends*, Biden is descended from those English and Anglo-Saxon monarchs in a presumably proven manner, and those ancient royal families claimed descent from Odin through that path (or similar paths. I've looked at this stuff for other reasons unrelated to Biden and it's obviously very messy).
The horsechart and Arabic writing was pretty interesting! Ahh, heck, what am I saying, they are all so cool!
just discovered the channel, love the content. fresh new sub \o
Pretty sure prince is equal to king and not heavily subordinate to it.
Like the English king was actually outraged when the Welsh Prince took it as a title, because they believed it to outrank king as it descended from the title of the roman emperors "princeps"
I love the best of’s ☺️🎉
Mr Prospector was a horse who was injured early in his career and sired about 1200 foals.
Clearly parts of him could still function quite nicely.
Is there software that helps produce these? I'd love to do one of my family tree to share with my family.
What program do people use to make their own family trees?
Any chance of a Collab with history time?
He covers a lot of *really* old history that could do with some charts, maps etc.
What software does one use to make maps like these?
3:46 Southern Baptist Convention floating out there by itself lol
Where can I find these charts? The subreddit just seems full of family trees at the moment
Fun fact - Simon Abney-Hastings, "alternate" King of England, lives in my city of Wangaratta in Australia.
This is so BONKERS!

Just wanted to warn you at 0:42 in there is a functional notion link in the captions, dosnt leak anything cuz its password protected but still an issue
Thanks! Removed it.
@@UsefulCharts wow, fast reply! 10/10 customer service
Oooooo, I need to try to do a chart like the horse one but for my greyhound. We have the lineage but the photos are all separate.
I had no idea passenger buses could breed.
When we got to the horses I was just waiting for Pot-8-Os to make their appearance.
Where can i get the fan charts?
Can someone explain to me or give sources for the marko-petrine lithurgy? İ wonder what modern secular historians say about that, if it does have an actual link with Peter and Mark or not...
Next up: A chart showing the creations and connections of the top ten chart makers on Reddit.
I find those charts pretty history-heavy
Happy New York 2024, I wish you Great new movies.
can't believe they misspelled Potoooooooo's name on that horse chart
Kids these days and their dang text messaging shortcuts eh.
