But but but Tokyo Drift wasn’t the second movie, it was the third. In fact it doesn’t even have a number in the title! And it wasn’t supposed to be part of the series chronologically, it’s actually set between the sixth and seventh films, but was intended as a standalone story. Tokyo Drift is the subtitle you apply when a subsequent event is only tangentially related to the original. Think of a sentence like “but don’t worry, this isn’t Fyre Festival 2; it’s more a Fyre Festival: Tokyo Drift.”
The British were habitual line steppers of history smh😅, I really hope they make a movie about Joseph Chatoyer, the black Caribs aka Garifuna resisted slavery and fought for his people. He had the mighty British signing treatys with the black Caribs at the height of British might. He made the French and British forcibly declare St.Vincent a neutral country and both were two incredibly powerful armies at that time. Truly incredible man with a rich, deep history. Shout-out to all Vincetians and Garifuna people. ❤❤❤❤
Incredibly interesting! I’d highly recommend a trip to St Vincent and the Grenadine Islands, it’s an incredibly beautiful part of the world, especially the small island of Bequia, which is well worth the hour long ferry trip from the port in Kingstown.
I live in New Zealand, and I’d love to hear some history about one of my ancestors, James “Worser” Heberly, who was born in England but joined the crew of a whaling ship at 13, and went all over the Atlantic, before finding himself in New Zealand, where he married a Maori woman, and eventually settled down in what is now called Worser bay, called that because he’d often say “Worser” instead of worse. I last read his journal last year, and if I remember correctly he was born sometime between 1810 and 1815, and he became a sailor sometime in the early 1820s.
Yes, amd pretty much all of them have become failed states. This is why the UK is now plagued small boat illegal miglrants. The need for recolonisation and the rebuilding of the British Empire has never been more obvious or urgent.
Technically they celebrate independence from the British government. St V and the Gs still has Charles III as their King, like Canada or Australia or Papua New Guinea, or etc etc.
@@kightsun Technically it was still independence from the British crown. Upon the moment of Independence, the British crown ceased to have any authority in SVG and became a foreign entity. It was replaced by the Vincentian crown. That’s one of the interesting aspects of the monarchy; in each realm it is a wholly separate and independent institution. Legally speaking, Charles III is 15 different people, because Charles III of the UK is a completely separate legal person to Charles III of Canada or Charles III of Saint Vincent. This is evident in the fact that in all acts relating to SVG, the King is referred to as “His Majesty the King of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines”. As such, saying SVG or Canada “have the British monarch as head of state” is a misnomer, and makes as much sense as saying “the UK has the Jamaican monarch as head of state” or “Australia has the Belizean monarch as head of state”
@@LordDim1 yeah but he's not separated people. It's called a personal union. The commonwealth crowns derive their authority and legitimacy from the British crown. So while yes you can speak of two crowns under say King James, no one would have done so, instead speaking of two parliaments and one King in personal union.
I mean... we probably learned that at least 200,000 years ago (first humans), if not earlier depending on who you count as "we". Trouble is it's also profitable for the ones doing the encroaching. But the international community has managed to nearly halt it by having the reat of the world intervene against people who do it, with probably a few dozen exceptions inside different countries.
It was professional French soldiers who went mercenary and fought the Brits in the American War of Independence, most settlers not being a match for highly trained soldiers; the problem came when the French won the battles and Americans reneged on paying them. Every cloud has a silver lining.
France really has a lot heart. If I didn’t already dislike that fast fashion mall store A.& F. I would now. Not related to history but still reinforces my stance and felt like saying so.

Abercromby will always be remembered as “one of the three starting generals in Napoleon Total War” to me. I always chose him because he had the best looking cocked hat.
Fascinating, ended up going down the Wikipedia rabbit hole about him and he went out in a pretty baller way. Though surely he would have pronounced his name 'Rafe', a la Ralph Fiennes?

Brutal truth about Trolls 🧌 they are lost for words. They started the war with French help and were not executed but removed as British were humane. Napoleon believed in slavery, the British stopped the global slave trade. I suppose the slavers would say it was Brutal to their profits. Were British it is just what we do long live liberty and democracy, tyrants beware.
1. Why do y’all call people from AFRICA BLACK?? 2. Indigenous people of Saint Vincent are brown, they are not from Africa, they were here since the beginning of time 3. Stop calling brown skin people black… we are brown. Thanks for “history” lesson

@@Chevy-jordan She used a term, Black African, as a description of African people who stood up to the horrors of slavery, this is a term used to disenfranchise African people from the basic dignity of a homeland.
