You asked why China showed Taiwanese flag? That's because that was/is (depending on your viewpoint) China's Flag. When after WW2, the communists took over China, the old government fled to Taiwan and kept their flag. That's why Taiwan claims to this day to be the legitimate Chinese government.
And the official name of Taiwan is the Republic of China, whereas the official name of what we call China is the People’s Republic of China
Came here to say this.😂
Learning in the comments section is rare 😅
Yeah it's the true Chinese government unless you're a commie that encourages disappearing their own citizens, harvesting organs, and the genocide of the Uyghur people
@@michaelschemlab I always call China, West-Taiwan. My Taiwanese boyfriend however is not a big fan of that since he doesn't want the name Taiwan associated with China, haha.
Korea was never a part of China. He said that in order to get to China, they took over the Korean peninsula first.
Fun fact, Mexico was the only country in the League of Nations that condemned Germany’s annexation of Austria. Today in Austria they still remember it and I believe named a street in honor of that, but can’t remember for sure.
fun fact there was a vote ,they vote to be part of the of Germany hmmmm ,imagin democracy ??
kinda weird since Austria wanted to join
@@ernestogastelum9123 This is a myth popularized by propaganda pieces and the one plebicite that occured (through forced coersion) to determine whether austrians wanted anschluss. There's a reason why the austrian president, Kurt Schuschni... and 70,000 others were arrested the moment it happened
Not the communists in Austria, those guys were panicking
@@ernestogastelum9123 want is a very strong word, a lot of people in austria wanted to, but to call that vote fair would be generous
there was no taiwan at the time - that was the chinese flag. After WW2 the Communist revolution happened and the revolution succeeded. What was left of the Chinese government fled to the island now known as Taiwan.
Nope. The island was always known as Taiwan, it was a province of the Republic of China and the only speck of China to not fall into the communists hands.
@@Princess_Celestia_ ...I meant Taiwan the "country" - not the physical island...
Work on your reading comprehension.
Why is it hard for Aidan to believe Hitler could walk in and just claim Austria was now Germany. That's literally what the UK did for ages. Literally what Russia is doing now. This is one of the easiest things to believe.
Hitler waltzing into Austria is true, but the rest is just straight up bullshit
Ripleys believe or not. I was surprised that lot of Brits has no idea now bad the Irish had it. My mother side where Irish endured and my grandfather talked about it made me think differently about the world. My father's mother was potowatomi Indian in potowatomi county Kansas.
That is not at all what Russia is doing now, that is what Putin thought he would be doing. The Austrians wanted to be part of the empire, there was no resistance. It's not that they couldn't fight back, there was no desire to.

There is a difference between this and Russia as Austria wanted to be a part of Germany, the Ukraine clearly does not.
Korea was influenced by China, it was not part of China, Korea had its own Monarchy
HAD, until Japan went and killed them all.
It was not part of China, but it was like a vassal state.
Korea is a very old country, not as old as China but still very old.
@@LGBTQLegendabout as old as in the 800s
This just felt like the council of brits decided my fate for 17 minutes straight
you guys to realize that what germany did in 1940's is what britain did for ages, going to a country and claim it as britain's. You have to watch how britain got rich
There was no People’s Republic of China at the time. That was the Chinese flag until 1949 when the nationalist government fled to Taiwan which is where it is used today.
OverSimplified Channel is one of my FAVORITE UA-cam channels! Great summary of World History using humor which is a great way for people to find history interesting and fun.
Fun fact those in the subway shelters didn't complain about the noise, the smell or anything much, the only thing they complain about was either the taste or colour of the tea
if history classes were like this, I would have learned so much in school lol
Korea was Korea before Japan, andit wasn't part of China.. Japan just overran Manchuria and most of southeast Asia at this time. Austria pretty much welcomed the union with Germany. It was seen as a political unification of a single people.
Something I’ve read is the appeasement issue is often misunderstood.
The British, French and to a lesser degree the Americans only appeased Germany because the wanted to use them as a buffer against Soviet expansion. That’s why they were willing to allow Germany to rearm and gave them the territory they wanted.
Since the revolution and the Bolsheviks took over the biggest fear among Western Europe governments was communism expanding (which was seen as a bigger threat)into those countries and a strong Germany would act as a buffer.
That’s why Britain and France were so shocked when Germany signed a nonaggression pact with the Soviet Union. That basically destroyed their plans, that’s why the Phony War period happened in the western front as Britain was still trying to negotiate with Germany to end the war in the west and continue in the east against the Soviet Union.
It was also because they were still recovering from WW1 and the people didn't want another massive war. You don't want a war that's unpopular that leads to massive issues.
😂😂
Love the oversimplified reactions
My 3rd grade teacher was a piano player, and she taught us our multiplication table and prepositional words through songs.
I'm 31 now and still remember 90% of the multiplication table, up to 12. I forgot the prepositional song, but I remember the start of it.
She also taught us a song with all of the US presidents, up to the last President Bush. But I forgot that one. I used to remember the melody, but forgot the names, but now I think I forgot the melody in recent years. It shared the same melody as another popular children's song.
Yeah, songs really do help you remember things. I still remember the auxiliary/helping verbs from a song a teacher made us sing every day back in like, 6th grade (and I'm now 37).

Apparently, Roosevelt and Churchill had a meeting about creating the United Nations, while Churchill was naked after taking a bath at the White House.
They were both fascists as well
@@docjohnson1Like the people of the left in today's America?
@@docjohnson1 Yes, but not nazis. Americans will conveniently ignore their brutal history against nonwhites while chastising Germany because Germany did what no other power had dared to do: create policies that killed europeans
Oh my god yes finally I’ve been waiting for y’all to get into oversimplified ww2 I’m so excited to watch this video
Love when you guys watch OverSimplified!
Thumb Up #721! 👍 You're welcome! Thanks! 😊
Notes: This is my first time to see and hear one of your videos since I got my new earphones. What a difference!
Also, since I've seen the video many times before, I didn't need to pause to read everything this time, because I did that before. So this time it was a quick viewing for me.
It also helped that I read some comments first and noticed that they answered your questions already, so there was no need for me to pause and answer them.
So thanks for making it fun! 🎉🎊✨️
Nice! You definitely gotta do more Oversimplified!
hello Office Bloke Daz i was wondering if any of them has heard of this video before "The Most Terrifying Sounds Of World War 2" by World War Military History
its basically showing very scary sounds that people back then had to endure back then i hope to see this would be a great example of them hearing the sounds for the first time
It's important to note it wasn't just the RAF. Pilots from many conquered countries and Canadians were assisting the RAF and were part of the reason they eventually drove the Luftwaffe back.
Technically all of those pilots were flying for the RAF. Your response was correct that it wasn't just British pilots who flew in the Battle of Britain but they all flew for the RAF in RAF aircraft.
RAF squadron 303, a primarily Polish squadron that included Czech and Canadian pilots, claimed the most downed aircraft during the Battle of Britain.
"Had it not been for the magnificent material contributed by the Polish squadrons and their unsurpassed gallantry, I hesitate to say that the outcome of the Battle of Britain would have been the same." - Sir Hugh Dowding
Off topic, but similarly interesting, the squadron is named after Tadeusz Kościuszko, a man who fought for both Polish and US Independence. In his will he even requested that his US assets be dedicated to the education and freedom of US slaves. Unfortunately, that never happened.
The reason the Chinese flag they used here looks like the Taiwanese flag is because Taiwan is the last remaining remnant of the China that existed prior to Mao. The flag you think of when you think "China", the one thats all red with yellow stars in the corner, is the flag of Commmunist China that hadn't won the civil war yet at that point.
Siedzimy i oglądamy film oversimplifiled super content xd
Interesting some of the questions you were asking you can be answered on the video *history of the entire world I guess*
Finally! Hope you finish the 2nd part asap! Then Cold War up next 👀
This is by far my favorite topic regarding history. Strictly on territorial gain and military might, it’s amazing what Nazi Germany was able to accomplish.
Korea gained independence from China and named itself Korea then Japan invaded them
Hitler did not invade Austria. Austrian people actually voted for him getting rid of their own government in a sense. It was a mutual merge.
Taiwan became Chinese in the 1600s. But the Chinese Empire has never been imperialist ;-) Taiwan was Japanese from the 1890s to 1940s ... not just Korea.
im not well versed on german history but im pretty sure germany taking austria wasnt an invasion as much as it was a mutual agreement moreorless lol
Im in love with Sophie
9:04 There's 2 China's. There's the democratic the Republic of China (commonly referred to as just Taiwan though that's actually the name of the Island that makes up what's left of the democratic China whose flag is shown in this video) and there's the communist People's Republic of China (commonly referred to as China as it's on the mainland). Taiwan was an island belonging to the Republic of China. During the Japanese invasion and occupation of large swaths of the Republic of China during the Second World War, communist Rebeles under Mao Zedong resisted and fought the Imperial Japanese Army. After the war, they took over that part of China and established the People's Republic of China and immediately went to war with the Republic of China with the end goal being to drive the Republic of China to extinction and put all of Chian under a communist dictatorship. The communists gained the upper hand taking large swaths of China from the Republic of China before ending the war, only to restart the war a short time later and take even more territory, eventually driving the Republic of China onto their last bastion, the island of Taiwan. Here, the Republic of China has remained, still in power as the rightful and real China thanks to Taiwan being an island and thus hard to actually invade, made even harder to do so by aid from the United States in the form of military weaponry.
To put it simply, the China you think of as China is the fake China, the country you call "Taiwan" is the real China. The CCP and Whinnie the Pooh are just occupiers that can go get bent.
I love your accent😭
Beautiful 😍 Soph!
The reason Transfer is Taiwan is because when a little before World War II started, China was not as queen dynasty didn’t I want took Quinn dynasty over so they say what I want what did China or the leftovers are coming down to see appeared really strong and then took the rest of Taiwan a little bit island
That flag is that of the Republic of China which controlled all of China including Taiwan, also known as Formosa (until the annexation by the Empire of Japan) from 1912 - 1930s, when it broke into a civil war between the communist led by Mao Zedong and the ROC led by the Kuomintang which was first supported by Nazi Germany and then the USA after the conclusion of WWII. The ROC were ultimately defeated and fled to Taiwan with no treaty offically signed by either side .so technically its an on going conflict with Taiwan heavily dependent on the US to maintain their discreet sovereignty.
Did you know Napoleon hated France?
Fun Fact: In the 1920s Austria actually wanted to join the Weimar Republic but wasn't allowed to. However, as soon as Hitler took control that opinion shifted. The SS created pressure in Austria and oversaw the referendum, punishing everyone who voted against annexation
Guys, interestingly Sir Winston Churchill’s mother was American. 🇺🇸🇬🇧
When Japan annexed Korea Korea wasn't apart of China, Manchuria was a Korean territory hundreds of years ago and then was taken by the Chinese over time
From my understanding, Austrians were/are ethnic German speaking people so fascism (unity through nationality) ties into Nazi Germanys territorial expansion goals as well as integrating ethnic people’s into one unified state. The lack of resistance is probably because this idea was popular among ethnic Germans at the time
4:05.... nooobody took notice the flags EVERYWHERE are not the German flag, but Belgian flag?
I be farding non-stop
What's Russia if it's Soviet Union. There's no Russia in 1940's cmon
Should react to ww1
Lebensraum was just meant to be Central Europe not the world
Read generalplan ost. It included russia as well
@@vercot7000 yeah but not the entirety of if plus they were gonna make puppet states they weren’t gonna annex everything
Churchill's wartime policies lead to death of miilions of Indians in Bengal.
The allies were very shitty in the first world war. Not to compare with the second world war. The British blockade killed many more civilians than the German submarines. The Germans even warned in public newspapers that they will attack certain civilian ships and that the US people should beware as they will attack this ship. Initially, the Germans even gave the ships plenty of time to evacuate. But they had to stop that later as it made them very vulnerable to consistently saying where they were attacking to protect civilians. The Germans attacked civilians in Belgium because the Belgian soldiers disguised themselves as civilians to surprise the Germans. The Germans didn't just invade Belgium. They asked beforehand if they could go through peacefully. You have to see this war from every side as there was no good or bad. Just like before the war. The Germans felt attacked from all sides. Just as Russia was rearming, it was over. The USA was not "neutral" either, as is often said in American schools. Most American settlers were German, yet the US consistently supplied the Allies and broke their neutrality. They tried to ban German language and culture. Every piece of German was removed. Although the settlers had nothing to do with the country politically. For the fact that the Germans made the USA more or less great by producing the largest families in the USA or inventions like jeans or the beginning of the gold rush, they were hated and sometimes even chased away. Not a single president stood up for this group of Americans, who really did something for the country with their working-class mentality. Allied propaganda made everyone in the world hate the Germans. All the great powers allied against the Germans and yet the Germans almost won. It was a period of weeks. If the usa had entered the war a few weeks later.. it would have been dark for the allies. Despite the British blockade, which left the Germans without supplies and one planet against them, the Germans almost won. Shows how overpowered they are. After the war they were held responsible for everything. But we're talking about the bad bad Germans. Don't get me wrong, the Germans screwed up too. But they also had to fight against a planet. That doesn't justify the actions, but makes it more understandable.
The Allies created Nazi Germany. Everyone always wonders how the Germans could do something like that. Look at something like ww1
We always look at ww1 from the Allied perspective. We are brought up and manipulated according to this image. Nobody looks at it from the German perspective. Germany fought 80% of the world. ALONE. With damn incompetent allies. The Frenchman can talk well with the British, Americans, Belgians, Russians and the entire British Commonwealth behind him. The Versailles Treaty was more than a disgrace. You expect them to fight 80% of the world fairly?
Many don't realize that. You lose everything in ww1 and then in "peace" time your people will be treated like shit. Everyone hated the Germans after ww1 because of allied propaganda. But we don't talk about that. what is the wage?
An Ultimate Crisis. Money was worthless.. And if you have no food, no Water and job you will turn to anyone who promises to fix it. The depression in Germany after World War I was twice as high as in America today and then people wonder why they followed Hitler so easily. No wonder when you destroy the most powerful country in the world in science, military and pride and leave it to starve in the ashes.. There will be a growing hate. And yes, Hitler was a sick man. But evil is not born. And he didn't just say wrong things either.. Many wrong things..
The Nazis helped in the beginning.. Of course the Germans couldn't knew that Hitler was such a crazy man. And at some point it was to late. There was also a big difference between Nazi, German and Wehrmacht soldier.
Man.. I love the UK ❤
It's ridiculous that Austria started both world wars and blamed them on Germany 😂
❤
What a lot of people don't get is that in WW1, technically the war was run by Germany, but they were simply in charge of the Prussian Empire. That included Germany, Austria, and Poland (among others). The Red Baron was from Poland.
The Yanks are coming!
I only watch the videos without the dad, but i have to scroll for the actual reactions and not the 5 min long conversations my adhd wont allow it.
💙💙💙💙💙
Hitler taking over Austria. Has everyone seen The Sound of Music?
Lost it a winston churchill is a dawg....
Ok....
Winston Churchill was a racist too
People in the 30s were racist, shocker.
Well no shit. This happened in the 1940s, almost every white person was. He didn't go around killing people based on race though.
Yes.
Documentary; EuropaTheLastBattle
Aka: 7 hr long propaganda piece that cites HIAG funded, made-up sources. Please feel free to defend just a single major theme in the movie
11:44 the policies of winston Churchill caused famine in the north-eastern region of bengal, which resulted in the death of atleast 3 million people.
I totally understand the reasoning behind it..but it's always interesting when videos show the flag of Nazi Germany in accuracy, except for the iron cross of Imperial Germany replacing the evil swastika. Again...I don't want to see the swastika either..a symbol of genocidal barbarity. But in certain contexts, we need to see it to prevent it from again becoming attractive. You can't prevent the worst of human history from repeating itself by totally erasing every representation of where it went wrong.
Winston Churchill was not a good man.
Unfortunately, there are a couple of spots in this one where Oversimplified oversimplified a bit too much, to the point where the things they say are factually incorrect. Specifically, the script has a line that indicates the German people loved the Schmazis, but that is not true...only a relatively small minority of them did. Shortly after that, Oversimplified gets the history wrong on how the Schmazis actually take power. He suggests that Schmazi popularity "grew and grew" and that led directly to the President making that Corporal the Chancellor, but that is not how it happened. The Schmazi's popularity had an upper limit, and actually fell after it reached that upper limit, but they were still the largest party in the Reichstag...and they used that power to force President Hindenburg to make the Corporal the Chancellor.
Also, in the section where Oversimplifed talks about the Czechoslovakians not being allowed to attend the 4 power conference, they make it seem like it was Britain and France that did not invite them...but it was one of Hitler's demands that Czechoslovakia not attend the meeting.
The purpose is to inspire you to do your own research.
@@digitaltennisshoes And I very much hope that everyone does. I also hope that me pointing out a few errors that Oversimplified has made will just add to that impetus for folks to look into this history themselves.
But as much as we can hope, we both know that a significant number of people watch these videos and think to themselves that they learned something, and then will not look into the real history. And let's face it, too many people already think that Bitchler and the Schmazis were elected to power, and did not seize it with violence and trickery....so correcting the record has a value all its own.
This not reaction to a videos it you watching it
1:00 Ah, see, we had Sesame Street here in America for decades to serve that exact purpose.
The show is still being made, but it's not like it used to be. Like every great thing, money corrupted it.
Ethiopia was never colonised
Aidan is so handsome!
I know more about ww2
Abesinya no under Italian fascist and Europan powers we against theme OK we know Ethiopia
I thought Brit schools were good.... Taiwan. Really?
Smart enough to recognise the flag in the first place and question it. Is that not intelligence?
Where's the part where the USA Comins in and saves all your asses.
As a US citizen, I absolutely love Winston Churchill, man is a legend, absolute hero, if he was from the US I’d absolutely vote for him
Yeah the British ppl have balls of steel, so happy were allies, if it comes to it, I’d be comfortable fighting & dying for the British if need be
No joke if another European war breaks out I’ll happily come help in whatever service is needed
A racist legend who killed millions
Thank you, fellow ally!
@@ehhh-07 cry a river, didn’t see you help end ww2. It took somebody like Churchill to have the balls to get done what we did in ww2 any thing else he did in his life doesn’t matter after he helped end the war.
british you were very bad in the past....we were colonized by you
И что дальше? Не кто не хочет сказать что СССР (Россия ) не участвовала во Второй Мировой войне?))) Боже народ вас обманывают и делают тупыми! Учите настоящую историю
There was no good side in ww2 . I'd say the worst side won just like american revolutionary war. Hitlers occupation of lands seems worst given his human rights records are too say the least not great. But the uk has done the same thing all over the world and caused more problems in the world today. The US took the matle from the UK. And i know its geopolitics and i know it can never be black and white and that simple to discern but we are talking about human suffering and death and hunger and poverty. Of which i think the Britishers are most responsible. The Nanjing massacre and thew Jewish massacre seem bad because they are crude instances of mass violence but the destabilisation of the middle east, the famines in india and africa and ireland the loot if resources and blatant disregard for human life and societies and cultures in most cases destroying civilizations are worst than any crime against humanity done in a single period of time.
kinda shocked exterminating 6 million people and being indirectly responsible for 80 million+ deaths would get you in the 'not great' human rights category. wtf you smoking bro.
No good side in ww2? Did the US and UK murder 6-14 million people based on their religion? I agree the US shouldn't of been in Iraq, but we have every reason to be in the middle east. We were invited there by the Saudis, and we had every reason to invade Afghanistan. Also you said the worst side won during the revolutionary War, how so? How about the Famine of India, that the UK caused, what has the US done that's worse than that? Seems to me, simply put, you just don't like the US or have something against western countries. That's fine though, because everyone's allowed to have their own opinions. Who would you of preferred to win the war Bitchler and the Japanese or the Allies, and why?
These types of 200 Iq galaxy brain takes are why I love the internet lol
I would literally never come into contact with this nonsense irl
@@theamaranth8825 offcourse you won't see it you have your veins running with the blood of your ancestors who exploited half of the world and stopped nothing short of sucking the blood of people.
Least hysterical Indian.
China had not yet broken in two essentially because of their civil war - both sides agreed they needed to band together and fight the Japanese or there wouldn't be a China for them to fight over anyway. That's why the flag is Taiwans flag.
And yes Hitler was born in Austria but he was ethnically German or at least considered himself such and so was not loyal to Austria. When it was Austria Hungary it was full of different diverse cultures and as you can imagine he was also not a fan. I think the area he lived in Austria either used to be a part of Germany or was closely related in some way. He avoided serving in the military for Austria who were actually looking to conscript him but he wanted to fight for Germany and slipped out and was allowed in the German army. Even though he technically shouldn't have been considering he wasn't even a citizen.
You know, for a reaction channel, I havent really seen much of a reaction 😂. More of 😐😑😐
