One of my favorites. Love the switch to Austin in the last few episodes - he's so engaged and well-studied. These have become genuinely intriguing conversations. Such a fan!
Something most people don't know is that in 1798, France invaded Ireland to set up a client state against the British, but this Franco-Irish coalition lost in the Battle of Vinegar Hill, and this has a profound impact here in Australia cause the veterans of this Vinegar Hill Campaign get transported to Australia, and in 1804 these convict veterans launch an attempted convict rebellion under Phillip Cunningham to seize the colony and declare a New Irish Republic in Australia, meeting in three groups in Castle Hill with the intention to march on Parramatta and onwards to Sydney to depose the Governor, or else flee to Brazil or go back to Ireland, but it failed and 4 years later you have the Rum Rebellion where Martial Johnston established a military dictatorship in a reaction against Governor Bligh's liberal reforms. The French Revolution has a huge impact on how Australia see's itself along with it's ruling class. Which is why Australia lends itself to big state leftist socialism probably the easiest of any country in the New World, because we were establish as an ethnically nationalist experiment in French Enlightenment liberalism, much to our extreme detriment and handicap.
Fascinating. I always wondered why Australia is like that given that the people were so prone to resistance. I never understood why they would buy into leftest social control.
@@zakadams762 It's not that Australians are prone to resistance, we just have a deeply engrained sense of an ingroup preference which has since become maladaptive given the multicultification and internationalisation of our ruling class. The social contract that comprises Australia only w0orks if the Government actually has the peoples best interest in mind, which covid demonstrated just isn't the case, so there's nothing there for Australians to rally behind, outside of whatever our ruling class tells us to do, which of course no one is willing to do, so the chances are very high that the Federation of Australia will be undone at some point, as each region goes back to pre-1901 conditions of just doing there own thing. That's the best outcome, or else we devolve, which we are devolving, into some weird, woke new age, quasi-fascist dictatorship over the net decade and half.
The French Revolution shows what happens when a populist movement doesn't have strong leadership. A good book to read is "The Populist Delusion" by Neema Parvini
What populist movement ? I'm french and I know our revolution quite well it wasn't populist at all it was the bourgeoisie who created it and it was happening only in Paris after that it terrorised the regular citizen that's why what follows is called the Terror (with massacre of the regular population) and is a hardcore atheist movement, which again goes against the pepole who were very Christian.
You guys managed to do what pretty much every specialist in the French Revolution has ignored - that over centralization was a primary cause of it. That’s because all of the specialists in it very strongly believed in over centralization. And you did a good job of mentioning the background, that France had to overcentralize for a time to unify the country. It wasn’t just the government, it was everything - the economy, the culture, the religion, all controlled by Paris (or Versailles, which is a suburb of it). Paris wasn’t a factor that determined everything in France, it was the factor that did so - the only factor. I think you made a great point that this over centralization explains why it went so crazy in the 1790s, as there wasn’t any meaningful opposition. This whole scenario played over over the century and a half after Napolean was deposed, where France was a political basket case that either had strongly authoritarian governments, or absolute chaos. An effective compromise couldn’t be devised until de Gaulle - who was the greatest French leader after Napolean (possibly greater). Interestingly, he wasn’t part of the structure, as he wasn’t of Paris, so maybe that’s why he could create something functional. But his compromise was a strong presidency, and that is why the French feel the need to protest all the time. I also have to comment both of you for stating that the thing that could have solved all these problems has been ignored throughout French history - that of federalism. And yes, it is the one thing everyone refused to consider during the Revolution, which is why France became a political clusterfuck for almost two centuries. We are starting to see a change in France - with the yellow vests. This is what could lead to the reform that can fix France, and undo the mess the Revolution (and Louis XIV) did. Aside from this over centralization theme, I like how you brought up how state-sponsored monopolies created huge problems. This is something else most specialists ignored. You really touched on a bunch of good points. Pretty much the historiography of the French Revolution was to cheer on the stuff that happened before 1794, and deplore what happened afterward. Scholarship has been seriously lacking because the scholars were leftist centralizers who think government control of economics is a good thing. Hence, they had all sorts of blind spots that tell a very incomplete story, despite the tremendous work done on it. Hopefully, with the new historians like you arising out of new media forms like UA-cam, we will have the resources outside the academic monopoly to present fresh perspectives on the French Revolution that will ultimately provide a more overall honest assessment of what went on during this period.
I like the smalltalk, in the context of the increased video pace/length lately. I'm saying, I wouldn't want smalltalk INSTEAD of History102, but smalltalk in conjuction with MORE History102 is 👌👌
I actually enjoyed the small talk on this one. On other podcasts it can be annoying, but with you guys... maybe its because you're friends in real life. It just feels natural.
Ive always studied history as a hobby. I am enjoying this angle of viewing history from these perspectives it over lays so well with the standard top down view point of historical events and people. And he is a very good lecturer.
@ That was the joke, a European would never say France or Germany are small but Americans (if they even have a sense of Europe’s scale) think of them as small.
@@wishunter9000 most of our states or cities in US are bigger than Europe countries by size and population and not only that but we are in control of the entire continent as one nation so do you understand why we think this way
Hey Rudy (I'ma call you Rudy) do you think you can put the books you referenced in the description of the video? I want to get the books but it's a little difficult to identify every book you hold up
Fire in the Minds of Men- James H Billington The Old Regime and the French Revolution- Alexis de Tocqueville Qu'est-Ce Que Le Tiers État?- Edmé Champion
I have been thinking about this a lot lately and had decided to do my own research on it. Rudyard to the rescue! Thank You for your hard work. I really enjoy your videos and learn a lot from them😊
It's funny that the constitutional grievances in the French Revolution and the English Civil War were very similar, even though these are quite different events.
Rudyard, real Texans know you're an immigrant, because if the Texas Legislature was to do what the Estates-General did, the Texans would hold it in a high-school football field.
I like the small talk. Side note but i live in AZ and i don't need to put long sleeves on until the high 20s/low 30s, but i also think 105 is nice outside, Lol.
Haha! Im right over in Louisiana and were getting the same weather and everybody is doing the same thing here! Dressing up in long sleeve and hoodies anxious for the weather to go down - finally!!
44:40 that younger more fanatical revolutionary that became Robespierre’s acolyte is Saint-Just. He was like the archetypical teenage rabid revolutionary and campus communist
1:00:26 that's really interesting because I'm American but have a lot of French ancestry. It's just sort of understood in my family that you give equal inheritance to your children. It's just normal to us.
Je suis Français, but naturalized American. Part of the French Revolution was that the incessant debts and partying debauchery of the previous king Louis 15 made the general population lose enormous faith and respect in the government making it easier for the revolutionaries to offer something different with a utopian worldview. France’s involvement with the American revolution also basically paved the way for its own as well since the monarchy had a difficult time justifying an absolutist regime while defending freedom in the other side of the world. Another factor not often mentioned is that France was the country with the largest population at the time. Add that to a famine started by a volcanic eruption in Iceland you get a population not ready to risk it all for revolutionary ideals and dislike for monarchy. Louis the 18th (after the revolution, and before Napoleon’s 100 days) was also heavily criticized and disliked by the French population so it was a tough sell for people that had just created massive change in the entire continent
The french revolution only happened because french thinkers were anglophiles who saw the whiggish british system as superior Voltaire was an anglophile. AS was montisque. The french should basically thank the british that they're still not an absolutist monarchy
I enjoy learning about French history in detail from foreign channels because they are less biased or provide a different point of view. For example, here in France, anything related to the monarchy or the post-monarchy period is somewhat taboo and frowned upon by the state. During the Revolution, the Vendéans revolted against the Republic, it was a bloodbath ending into a genocide. Yet, this event is barely studied, despite being more violent and extensive than the roundup of Jews during World War II (an event we constantly revisit to emphasize how terrible it was). Two years ago, a historical movie was made about a hero of the Vendéan revolt. It was a successful film, although pro-government and leftist media completely criticized and attempted to censor it.
Has the group listened to Mike Duncan's Revolutions? I recommend it. These boys are flying through. The Duncan's podcast goes through the ENTIRE thing. It's season 3 on Apple podcasts
Colombian reactionary writer Nicolás Gómez Dávila (I think he is mostly untranslated into English) wrote that there hasn't been any real change since the French Revolution. The thing people regularly confuse for change is actually moving faster and faster in the same direction, not a change of direction.
Im going to listen to this tomorrow at work but I have been listening to age of napoleon on spotify with Everette for years and I am interested to see your short take vs years of breakdown. He has just gotten to Napoleon taking Madrid and the English withdraw from the peninsula.
@TruthNexuss You're right, but it needs to be balanced with getting info across. I'd point to them rushing the history part in the last 15 minutes in several episodes.
Im good with the small talk but make these videos longer so you cover everything more completely. Sometimes you seem rushed to get the lecture over in about an hour. No one is stopping you from going longer.
I agree with Rudyard that the Fronde should have been won by the nobility and parliament. But I must also say, I fantasize of what would have been if Louis the 14th had been a Military Genius like Napoleon.
I’m not going to defend the French, but two Americans describing the French as preferring food to agency is a bit ironic, don’t you think? The majority of Americans do too, the difference is that French food is actually better
You can find a middle ground where everyone is happy by putting a subtitle on the screen in the beginning, letting ppl know what timestamp the video starts
@33:09 you show that you’ve not been in Texas long enough. Texans would meet in a football stadium, and the proceedings would be accompanied by tailgate meals and open refreshment stands. Everyone could eat, sit, hear the speakers, use the restrooms… come on. When do we meet? 😄
Quick question… slightly off topic, but why is it that Rudyard discusses historical trends relating to boomers, Gen X, and Gen Z, but never once refers to millennials (my own generation)? My guess is probably due to the fact that we [millennials] are such a lost generation, and have offered the world absolutely nothing despite the fact that there’s a lot of us. Anyone reading this comment, please feel free to add your thoughts.
Day 2 of asking for an 80 year wars video, as it covers the invention of capitalism and the creation of the first Western European republic that is a major power and is also an early example of nationalism
You know that you could do 1:30, 2 hours or longer videos and we would see the videos without difference right? You don't have to plan the videos for being 1 hour
Starts at 4:40. It's confusing to have a video about X that goes on for minutes not talking about X. Compare the Sacred Symbols playstation podcast, and The China Show west-china relations podcast. The first has unrelated talk at the beginning, the latter has at the end, but they're both very clear about this, and they also introduce themselves and their podcast. By the way, everyone talks about the french revolution, but what happened after? the french, especially the anti-insanity people (assuming they existed), had to respond somehow. 1:04:45 RL mentions how france's national identification with military prevented them from holding the army's mistakes. He specifically says this was seen as an attack on france's national identity. Interesting psychology here. This also happens with the american wokes.
I'm rather pleased with the recent uptick in videos. Keep it up!
One of my favorites. Love the switch to Austin in the last few episodes - he's so engaged and well-studied. These have become genuinely intriguing conversations. Such a fan!
nah the smalltalk is fine. If you dont like it, just skip 60 seconds
Gives some nice extra context and more of a personal touch
I don't like it, it sounds and feels pretentious. Especially talking up Austin TX like every leftist who lives there
He should just add chapter markers then those who want to skip it, can.
It’s fun to watch openness and autism collide
@@Peter-MHomg you don’t need markers for that 😂. It’s 60 seconds if that you’ll be fine
