    1:33 And the funny part is - this wasn't even the main reason why Mexico rejected (tho it was a big one).
    No, the main reason was that Mexico was sorta fighting itself at the moment. The Mexican Revolution was in full swing by that point, and while most counterrevolutionary forces were defeated and the few that remained were too weak to present a credible threat, the most powerful revolutionary factions were fighting each other, with the Carranza-led Constitutionalist faction fighting against the Villistas (supporters of Pancho Villa) and Zapatistas (those of Emiliano Zapata). And even the Constitutionalist faction, which was in the process of creating a new (and, as of this comment, current) Mexican constitution of 1917, was racked with internal divisions between the mostly liberal supporters of Venustiano Carranza and the mostly left-leaning supporters of Alvaro Obregon. A division that would, 3 years down the line, lead to open conflict

    9:34 It was the best century for the Netherlands: We won our war of independence from a really powerful empire; we established global hegemony; we won a naval war from the English because there was almost no English navy left to fight; we won a three front war (England, France and some German states); and we became the last country to succesfully invaded Britain.
    The year 1672 was kinda bad, though. Don't ask what happened to the president back then.

    While the 1600s are indeed the golden age of the United provinces, said golden age started in the mid 1500s and ended with the Franco-Dutch War in the 1670s and they had already started to decline shortly before that. Moreover they were at war almost the whole time, were invaded a few times and even kicked out of south and north america. It would be somewhat incorrect to say they were the most acclaimed, i mean in the french court they were often reffered as " les gueux des mers" the sea beggars and their large non professional navy, their greatest strength ended up a weakness.

    I almost spat out my meal when I heard Drew pronounced Goebbels literally like "gerbils". :D
    In all honesty though: In German, the letter G - unless in some loanwords predominantly from English or French - is ALWAYS pronounced like the "hard G"! And that is not only the case in German, but in the majority of Germanic languages, all Slavic languages, all Celtic languages, all Baltic languages and in the standard transcription of most languages that originally use a writing system other than Latin-based.
    In other words: Unless you're speaking English or any actual Romance language and you encounter the letter G (not including multi-letter phonems that include a G, like "gh" in some languages) you're almost guaranteed to have it right when always using the hard G sound. :)

    The Deluge is so unknown part of European history yet it was massive for the region. Basically Poland was weakened from many wars and struggling with internal problems, then Swedes flooded into Poland causing death of up to 40% of Polish population and destruction of about 50% of properties, not to even mention robberies, Sweds were taking everything, from art to marble from the floors and even entire columns xD
    After that Poland couldn't defend itself from 3 empires and partitions happened...
