@Aj Styles Honestly, i agree. Though again, not everything will be perfect. Sometimes, there might be even some biases. I don't think this is the best, but it's interesting.
@VoidyVoid11 it's a summary that skips too much, imagine if I make a summary of Mongolia empire and I skip a lot of stuff they did before they were united, during the unification, after the unification, the starting of expansion, all deals that went bad and just paint them as necessary force to qualm situations in horrible provinces and big countries without explaining the situation. A summary is suppose to give you clarity, skipping formalities and such, not skipping facts that made it important.
13:14 You mention the April 2008 Bucharest Summit, where it was stated that Georgia and Ukraine will become future members of NATO; and Russia's negative reaction. You omit to mention the 2008 Georgian War that followed that summer - quite an important event and a foreshadowing of what might happen to Ukraine. Russia could not countenance Crimea (especially) becoming part of NATO.
Also, since the video became political it could've went back a few years before '47 to tell the story, just to point out for example that the USSR promised free and fair elections in all countries east of Germany, but in reality what happened was the destruction of their constitutions, imposition of communist one-party systems, mass deportation(in some cases execution) of people who did not agree with all of this and so on. Which is what led to the largest guerilla war in European history.
It really only goes into 'politics' to mention NATO's reasonings for interventions and then at the very end, quoting Putin's statements. Almost hilariously states that 'at the end of 2021 Putin tries to negotiate an end to NATO's expansion to the east... without a response'. Wanna know what that 'negotiation' was? It was literally Putin's demand that Baltic states, Poland, Bulgaria, etc. would be effectively kicked out of NATO without their own will.
It didn't mention anything outside of NATO's actions. You're being awfully selective in your comment. It doesn't mention a lot of things, including Russia's actions that pushed such countries like Poland, Baltic States, Czech Republic, Hungary, etc. to join NATO. It didn't menton the USSR's violent crackdowns on Czechoslovakia, Hungary, the border attacks on the Baltics, the largest guerilla war in European history and so on.
The Hog Rider is a fast ground troop with medium hit points, low damage, and the ability to jump over enemy Walls. He is unlocked from the Spell Valley (Arena 5). He is a quick building-targeting, melee troop with moderately high hitpoints and damage.
So many false informations though, it all depends on which side you choose to believe... the side that said its war-logs are classified yet post another country's war-logs "LIVE" Russia vs WEST will never know peace in our lifetime
These videos are always well made and very instructive in pulling together a long view, even for people who already know quite a bit about the details. Every history course should start with one of these just to get the general timeline established in an engaging way.
I love your videos because they go very thoroughly over well known events, and therefore uncover tons of details I've never heard about, for instance I have never heard of the 1948 Czech coup, Nato sending aid to Pakistan and Darfur, article 5 being triggered after 911, and Greece leaving the command structure of NATO.
Non, Histoire Géo, Geo History et les autres traductions mentionnées dans les descriptions font toutes parties du même projet. (Et je ne suis pas Français)
Thank you for uploading this very informative video. As someone who is not from Europe I find it hard to learn about its complex history and geo politics but this is a good and also entertaining 👍🏻
The problem with comments like these is that this type of content is super surface level. People find school boring because they have to delve into more specifics which a video really can't do. Even if they try you never have to critically think about the issue on your own.
This is officially my favorite channel! It's everything I ever wanted to know in history presented in a concise, geographic, bigger picture timeline view that is easy to understand and absorb. Thank you so much! Brilliant!
How come you didnt add how in 1955, before creating the warsaw pact, the USSR was rejected in their attempt to join NATO. Id say thats a pretty big part in history that has given us the world as we know it
Yeah I wish we had these when I went to school in the 90's, instead of those old dusty uninteresting teachers. Never been into history, but on youtube I just consume it like nothing else matters :-P
My dad, being born in Germany might have saw all this, since he was born in 1985, he only saw the Berlin wall get torn down, then he moved here. While researching this earlier alot of people didn't mention any of the things that happened in Europe. So I was kinda confused when they said so with the Berlin wall gone... I kept re winding to see if I missed anything and they just didn't say it
A bit disappointed that there was no mention of the Yugoslav-Soviet split in 1948, when Yugoslavia proclaimed itself to be non-aligned and adopted a different, more left-wing style of socialism in the coming years. It was quite a tense period, but after Stalin's death, Khruschev reconciled with Yugoslavia, which was now in okay terms with both the West and the East.
@Fred Fèteira Cant be bro 100ago Montenegro was a 2nd Serbian Kingdoom with 99% of Serbs that was before communism,,after comunism today you have 50% montenegrian 50%serbs,,two born brothers diferent nationality. long story short
4:20 You pointed that İstanbul is the Turkish capital but in reality, it's Ankara because in 1923, Constantinople (İstanbul) was replaced by Ankara as the Turkish capital
I've learned so much from these videos, that I now realise that history repeats itself. Superpowers always change, wars will always happen. What is today, may not be tomorrow. Scary, yet fascinating
Excellent video, informative and objective. One small note: the Italian flag at min. 04:01 is wrong: it is the one of the Kingdom of Italy (note the Savoy family emblem within the flag’s white stripe). That flag was replaced by the current one (with three clean stripes of color) in 1946, when after a referendum Italy became a republic. So, in 1951 Italys flag was definitely without the former royal family emblem.
Materiał był super ,połączony z lekcją histori konfliktów.Do trórców mam jedno podejrzenie że komuś zależy na wywoływaniu konfliktów zbrojnych w Europie i nie tylko.Przypuszczam że Jugosławia padła takim machinacją
5:54 When De Gaulle told the Americans to leave, President Eisenhower’s response was: “oh, should we take the ones in their graves in Normandy too?” I think that one definitely caught the French off guard.
Fascinating arguments come up here from various country viewpoints over the relevance & necessity of NATO in the current world geopolitical scenario. Taken as a continental whole, the North American - West European original defense pact NATO is disliked in Asia, Africa & South America , reminding these populous nationals of past bullying European colonial powers military & economic deprivation modes , starting from the medieval times. The outrage felt against NATO today over 3 most populated continents is because of it being seen as a body aiding economic inequality established hitherto of ganged up essentially old European colonial powers under new garb of such alliances to spread out their own differences so as to keep their conflicts at simmering point towards brink of a 3rd World War. These impressions are borne out by the populated nations like China, India, Indonesia, Brazil, Argentina, Egypt, South Africa & more such showing firm reluctance these days to get involved in military interventions like the one in Ukraine.❤
It'd have been relevant to mention the Georgian War resulting in Georgia not being accepted, as well as the fact that Russia's demands to Ukraine far exceeded just not joining NATO, and the fact that the West did respond to Russia's request by saying that while Russia couldn't dictate which countries could join a defensive alliance, there were no plans to accept Ukraine at this time.
@Doemi S Мда , маразм крепчал ))сравнивать Гитлера с Путиным это надо уметь )) национализм и фашизм не имеет границ , к нему только присоединяются , так же как и к русофобии , вот выбрали Путина большинством народа в РФ , уважайте этот выбора народа , зачем Госдеп лезет в этот процесс , выбрал Китайский народ своего лидера в однопартийной стране , зачем Госдеп хочет установить там демократию ??? Зачем навязывать свою волю и считать что автократия и социализм это зло ??? Почему демократия не зло ?? В США нет свободы слова , все страны на чьей территории находятся военные базы США , а их около 1000 по всему миру не имеют политической воли , ни Канада , ни Германия , ни Япония. Развязывание войн и полное доминирование в экономике и культуре делает США империей , в современном понимании , может быть зла или добра , но империей , а империя не может существовать вечно , последняя была Англия , возможно в будущем будет китайская , этот процесс не быстрый , надо понимать
@Simonв чем сложность Украины и Европы было выполнить Минские соглашения ? Желание стран НАТО влиять на восточную Европу это нормально , а желание РФ влиять на то же самое это угроза существования демократии в Европе и США ? 😂 😂😂 что курят в Пентагоне и НАТО я не знаю , но американцы молодцы в любом случае , воевать надо не на своей территории , а лучше по всему миру во всех войнах )))
the iron curtain did not include yugoslawia. The later was actually slightly hostile to the soviet block and had pretty open borders towards western countries and solid economic ties. Albania also also wasn't part of the soviet block though they definitly had their own little iron curtain. They had a more North Korean system and have been extremely isolated from all their neighbours. Just to give you an example, after the fall of comunism in albania I met several albanians asking me if humans really landed on the moon or where utterly baffeled when they saw a television set. Not to mention the old woman I once drove to an hospital which was so scared from driving in a car that we had to halt and help her calm down.
5:07 Excellent job and attention to detail. However I wish you would explain what happened in Austria in 1955-56 when it magically de-partitioned and the NE region ceased to Warsaw Pact red...
Thanks for the Austria info - I was wondering what was going on with that part of post-war Europe and how Austria magically formed with no explanation. What gets left out is as important as what gets put in.
Austria was occupied by the USSR, FR, UK and US from 1945 until 1955 and separated into four sectors. The situation within Vienna, the capital, was similar to Berlin, with the city also being separated into four sectors, but without a big wall, like in Berlin. With the Austrian State Treaty, signed May 15th 1955 in Vienna, Austria was re-established as a sovereign state, with the USSR only signing it by making Austria promise to stay independent and not join NATO (which Austria assured by putting it in its constitution). That's why Austria to this day is not part of NATO, and together with Switzerland forms somewhat of a "neutral island" in Central Europe (militarily neutral; Austria joined the EU in '95 and the Eurozone in '02). That also may explain why many international institutions like the OSCE, OPEC, UN,... have their HQs in Vienna and why the JCPOA ("Iran-Deal") was signed there. Hope that helps! I grew up in Vienna and am now living in Berlin ;)
Very detailed History Tutorial, thickly packed with many useful dates and evenements. Maybe, the problem of NATO is that most part of the civil population of European Allies... nearly ignores the existance and mission of the Alliance that protects us all. sa
I mean think about it this way: NATO is a treaty which refers to Europe + North America. Which most of Europe and North America has already joined NATO. In 5-10 years, we'll see Finland, Sweden and Ukraine join NATO. Maybe followed by Georgia and Azerbaijan.
Precisely: maybe other very important episodes are missing also, but this is the one my limited knowledge readily identifies. Good, not apparently much biased video, but will have to see more to understand the full picture: it is so hard to find neutral/factual information. This channel, at least, seems ok.
The Hog Rider is a fast ground troop with medium hit points, low damage, and the ability to jump over enemy Walls. He is unlocked from the Spell Valley (Arena 5). He is a quick building-targeting, melee troop with moderately high hitpoints and damage.
Really interesting to see how we have got to the point we are now in with Ukraine and what's lead us to that. As a European (British) I find it quite disturbing to see how volatile things have been since the second world war. It will be interesting to see how Ukraine plays out ...
Some errors here as the Taliban weren't Western targets. The West left after defeating ISIS and Al Qaeda so those mission objectives were achieved. Stability fell due to Afghanistan's own incompetence at warding off minor extremists.
In the time from 1945 - 1955, you have added the Soviet controlled part of Austria also to the Warsaw Pact, that isn't true and the iron curtain was never built through Austria, it was build at the borders with Czechoslovakia, Hungary and Yugoslavia. Also Vienna, Austria's capital city was also splitted up by the four allied powers, only Vienna's first district was governed by all four allied powers (There is a picture of four allied soldiers, for each power one in a Jeep, which is called "Die Vier im Jeep", which patrolled the First District) also Lower Austria, Burgenland and parts of Upper Austria weren't part of the Warsaw Pact Austria was controlled by the allies equally and the first election was held in 1945, were Karl Renner was elected head of state Only after Stalin's death in 1953, Austria had chance of becoming sovereign, which it did in 1955
It’s funny that I had this I politics class but forgot about the most part and after watching the video I’m way better informed than my teacher could ever achieve. Sometimes I feel like KZclip could partially replace schools if you were taught „how to process data from KZclip and learn from it“
4:19 Here, Istanbul is shown as the capital of Turkey. But, Ankara has been the capital since 1923, as follows of the first world war, whereafter, Istanbul was not under it's control for a few months.
"From Nato to the U.N. and the E.U., the generation that lived through the first half of the 20th century knew they needed to create a new world order. An order with rules and institutions which, however imperfect, could act both as constraints on individual countries going rogue and as catalysts for co-operation for mutual benefit" --Ed Davey
Fun Fact, literally the only reason why United Nations was able to send any sort of aid to South Korea at the time was because USSR was boycotting them. If the USSR was there, they would've vetoed and the UN wouldn't have be able to send anything to help South Korea
@Solid_Snake - The genocide of Serbs by Albanians in Kosovo does not concern the UN and NATO. They take a favorable side for themselves. Serbia did not want to join NATO, for this it was punished by being torn apart.

I think this video lacks on information about: - Austria neutrality otherwise it would become like Germany - why did Ukraine and Geórgia not join NATO (while other countries like Macedonia did) - the georgia russian war
@SorbeX555 Russia protects Russian-speaking citizen, not territories. Not everywhere where Russians are still discriminated but Putin does the job better then 30 years before. Compare to Izrael.
Geo History I love the way your videos are presented, thank you so much for getting me interested in history NATO will bring Russia and China together and strengthen China as an ally now that Western sentiment is shifting in the negative direction towards Russia Hopefully Mutual assured destruction will prevent an all out East vs. West war from happening...
I always wondered why there was so much rivalry between the modern-allied American and French troops. While they had a common goal, they often seemed to have a sort of rivalry that seemed a little more arrogant on both ends. A lot of people argued that Charles de Gaulle was looking out for his own people, but I could also see why American leaders might have believed that Charles disliked American leaders. Apparently both the US and Brits had a tough time with France. I only did some quick research, so I'm sure my information isn't as polished as a history book. Anyone feel free to correct me.
France and the US both wanting to be the leader is what it boils down to. The US is the de facto number one of NATO, but composes 2/3 of NATO military spending. For the other members of NATO, it’s a small price to pay for security.
Sweden and Finland, it's worth noting, are together with Switzerland known to have been among the "most neutral" countries in the world. And Sweden has remained neutral for longer than Switzerland. Only the Russian agression with the invasion of Ukraine shifted (and very strongly) the mind of the populations from neutrality towards NATO membership.
@Фёдор Дуболомов No, _NOT "participation in... NATO wars."_ Those are Swedish instructors to the Iraqi military, in a *United Nations mission,* that the UN asked NATO to lead. Any largescale operation needs competent leadership with experince, NATO had that so the UN asked NATO to lead it. But it _IS_ a UN operation, not a NATO or US operation, that the Swedish instructors participate in. Besides, the Swedish had nothing to do with any "war", only with instructing the countrys national military. They are school teachers, not warriors.
@Lars Ronæs - The Swedes in Iraq. News: " On 04.01.2020, Sweden suspended the mission of military instructors in Iraq. The Swedish Armed Forces suspended the work of the mission of military instructors in Iraq after the death of Iranian General Qasim Suleimani, the Expressen newspaper reports, citing a representative of the Armed Forces." . It still about participation in the NATO and US wars?
@Romanus Matthaeus _"Sweden and Finland... participated in NATO _*_operations."_* Please explain, which NATO "operations"? Or do you mean NATO "exercises"? Both Finland, Russia and Sweden all participated in NATO exercises.
@lordexvar Not correct. Finland was _NOT_ "an ally of the Nazis". They were "brothers in arms", fighting the same enemy, not allies- German troops could do certain limited operations from Finnish territory. And Finlands field marshall Mannerheim personally insulted the Nazis leader (yes Hitler) in his open face - with no counter reaction. Sweden in WWII was _NOT_ "closely tied" with Germany. They sold iron (a lot) to Germany. And ball bearings to both the UK and Germany (so both sides). Sweden had to allow the transit of German troops to Norway (when they had control, not for invading), an aggreement they really couldn't avoid without a high risk of occupation, for 3 years. In1943 they stopped for transits.
@geo history: Mistake at 01:23: The iron curtain never ran through Austria. It was all north, east and partly south of AT but the border went never through it. The occupation map of the USSR however is correct. Burgenland, Vienna, and Lower Austria were occupied by the CSSR but they were never on the east side of the iron curtain.
@Andre Hunter I have no idea,, but I dont think Zelinsky is behind this development,, he is only an actor. Professor John Mearsheimer is one of many of the worlds intellectuals who have seen what is going on since many years back, and have tried to warn us. Sadly most people dont have the time and energy to look behind the tabloids.

@Falcon Tell that to the people of Ukraine.
Thank you for uploading this very informative video. As someone who is not from Europe I find it hard to learn about its complex history and geo politics but this is a good and also entertaining 👍🏻
I wish history lessons in school were presented this way. Very profession and easy to follow.
@Tbot2 out of all the languages you chose to speak, you chose to speak facts
@Tbot2 Well, maybe the video could be a supplement to delving into specifics.
The problem with comments like these is that this type of content is super surface level. People find school boring because they have to delve into more specifics which a video really can't do. Even if they try you never have to critically think about the issue on your own.
This is officially my favorite channel! It's everything I ever wanted to know in history presented in a concise, geographic, bigger picture timeline view that is easy to understand and absorb. Thank you so much! Brilliant!
Oops sorry I was looking for a video.
Very well described. A good analysis of Nato and Russia tensions.
How come you didnt add how in 1955, before creating the warsaw pact, the USSR was rejected in their attempt to join NATO. Id say thats a pretty big part in history that has given us the world as we know it
@Tommy NATO was formed because of Soviet aggression. To turn around and admit the USSR defeats the entire purpose.
@Madzguy007 Tibet
in 2004 the russian federation was rejected again to join nato.
This was immensely enjoyable, we need more.
No NATO = No War 🌎🙏
Yeah I wish we had these when I went to school in the 90's, instead of those old dusty uninteresting teachers. Never been into history, but on youtube I just consume it like nothing else matters :-P
This is one of the best summaries that have ever been posted on KZclip. Good job.
this right here is quality content. I loved this video so much, I appreciate all the information that you have provided me with.
My dad, being born in Germany might have saw all this, since he was born in 1985, he only saw the Berlin wall get torn down, then he moved here.
While researching this earlier alot of people didn't mention any of the things that happened in Europe. So I was kinda confused when they said so with the Berlin wall gone... I kept re winding to see if I missed anything and they just didn't say it
this gives such a nice overview of how things caused the next thing, especially the narration, not just the map alone.
Thank you for adding the Korean War! My great grandpa was in the war I love it when people mention it because it was a big part of history
A bit disappointed that there was no mention of the Yugoslav-Soviet split in 1948, when Yugoslavia proclaimed itself to be non-aligned and adopted a different, more left-wing style of socialism in the coming years. It was quite a tense period, but after Stalin's death, Khruschev reconciled with Yugoslavia, which was now in okay terms with both the West and the East.
@Vuk Aleksic si, they're the same. We are all the same in the end ahah, Love you all my European brothers, or from anywhere in the world ❤️🙏☀️
@Fred Fèteira Cant be bro 100ago Montenegro was a 2nd Serbian Kingdoom with 99% of Serbs that was before communism,,after comunism today you have 50% montenegrian 50%serbs,,two born brothers diferent nationality. long story short
@Tomorrow We Live You know nothing, Yugoslavia was the closest example to textbook communism and much more left wing.
these videos are so good, thank you so much. so interested in these topics you often cover
Very interesting. I'm personally involved in the ukraine incident. Always good to get a wider perspective on history.
So much knowledge crammed into these videos. Brilliant 👏
What a... Good job man 👍 This is a very great summary of the world events
Very informative and entertaining! Thank you.
4:20 You pointed that İstanbul is the Turkish capital but in reality, it's Ankara because in 1923, Constantinople (İstanbul) was replaced by Ankara as the Turkish capital
there's a lot wrong here
@SCINTILLAM DEI good shit bro
absolutely no one think it is
@Battleship Iowa
It was The Poor Lads originally, then covered by They Might Be Giants.
@Satanic Microchip v5 I know those 2 are the same thing but with different names
This was a super good video explaining alot. Very well done, deserves more views!
Wow, one of the more nuanced and balanced takes on this issue. It probably could have used the mention of the October Missile Crisis.
Yea since it was one of the, if not the moment when tensions where the highest
I've learned so much from these videos, that I now realise that history repeats itself.
Superpowers always change, wars will always happen. What is today, may not be tomorrow.
Scary, yet fascinating
Best voice over so far. Overall amazing sound design
You explained this very well
Just shows the clear picture
This is a very concisely summarized story!! Super-helpful! Thanks. (from Japan)
I have a lot of respect for Japan. From Poland 🇵🇱🤝🇯🇵👍👍👍
Amazing video,espiacially the very objective and neutral narration,nice job!
This is a great and amazing video by Geo history really great way to give this info in a easy to understand the whole complex topic
Fantastic video but at 4:00 Italy was a Republic by then and you used the Kingdom of Italy's flag. Other than that very informative video👌
Good video, you should do one for the Warsaw Pact and CSTO as well. Cheers
CSTO 🤣🤣🤣
Excellent video, informative and objective. One small note: the Italian flag at min. 04:01 is wrong: it is the one of the Kingdom of Italy (note the Savoy family emblem within the flag’s white stripe). That flag was replaced by the current one (with three clean stripes of color) in 1946, when after a referendum Italy became a republic. So, in 1951 Italys flag was definitely without the former royal family emblem.
Great video!
I think however, it would be greatly beneficial if you included your sources in the description. Thank you!
there is google and enogh other sources. That what hes saying in this video isbasically common sense and knowledge since a long time
Awesome video. Learned a few things. Thanks!
Very informative and up the date to the video release. Thank you.
Materiał był super ,połączony z lekcją histori konfliktów.Do trórców mam jedno podejrzenie że komuś zależy na wywoływaniu konfliktów zbrojnych w Europie i nie tylko.Przypuszczam że Jugosławia padła takim machinacją
That was an interesting and well put together video 👍
Thank you for this video. It explains a lot
5:54
When De Gaulle told the Americans to leave, President Eisenhower’s response was: “oh, should we take the ones in their graves in Normandy too?” I think that one definitely caught the French off guard.
@mondée’ anti and we liberated them, so it's fair.
@SIYAC Point is that French litteraly created your country aswell as your most well known monument.
Fascinating arguments come up here from various country viewpoints over the relevance & necessity of NATO in the current world geopolitical scenario. Taken as a continental whole, the North American - West European original defense pact NATO is disliked in Asia, Africa & South America , reminding these populous nationals of past bullying European colonial powers military & economic deprivation modes , starting from the medieval times. The outrage felt against NATO today over 3 most populated continents is because of it being seen as a body aiding economic inequality established hitherto of ganged up essentially old European colonial powers under new garb of such alliances to spread out their own differences so as to keep their conflicts at simmering point towards brink of a 3rd World War. These impressions are borne out by the populated nations like China, India, Indonesia, Brazil, Argentina, Egypt, South Africa & more such showing firm reluctance these days to get involved in military interventions like the one in Ukraine.❤
It'd have been relevant to mention the Georgian War resulting in Georgia not being accepted, as well as the fact that Russia's demands to Ukraine far exceeded just not joining NATO, and the fact that the West did respond to Russia's request by saying that while Russia couldn't dictate which countries could join a defensive alliance, there were no plans to accept Ukraine at this time.
@Doemi S Мда , маразм крепчал ))сравнивать Гитлера с Путиным это надо уметь )) национализм и фашизм не имеет границ , к нему только присоединяются , так же как и к русофобии , вот выбрали Путина большинством народа в РФ , уважайте этот выбора народа , зачем Госдеп лезет в этот процесс , выбрал Китайский народ своего лидера в однопартийной стране , зачем Госдеп хочет установить там демократию ??? Зачем навязывать свою волю и считать что автократия и социализм это зло ??? Почему демократия не зло ?? В США нет свободы слова , все страны на чьей территории находятся военные базы США , а их около 1000 по всему миру не имеют политической воли , ни Канада , ни Германия , ни Япония. Развязывание войн и полное доминирование в экономике и культуре делает США империей , в современном понимании , может быть зла или добра , но империей , а империя не может существовать вечно , последняя была Англия , возможно в будущем будет китайская , этот процесс не быстрый , надо понимать
@Simonв чем сложность Украины и Европы было выполнить Минские соглашения ? Желание стран НАТО влиять на восточную Европу это нормально , а желание РФ влиять на то же самое это угроза существования демократии в Европе и США ? 😂 😂😂 что курят в Пентагоне и НАТО я не знаю , но американцы молодцы в любом случае , воевать надо не на своей территории , а лучше по всему миру во всех войнах )))
the iron curtain did not include yugoslawia. The later was actually slightly hostile to the soviet block and had pretty open borders towards western countries and solid economic ties.
Albania also also wasn't part of the soviet block though they definitly had their own little iron curtain. They had a more North Korean system and have been extremely isolated from all their neighbours. Just to give you an example, after the fall of comunism in albania I met several albanians asking me if humans really landed on the moon or where utterly baffeled when they saw a television set. Not to mention the old woman I once drove to an hospital which was so scared from driving in a car that we had to halt and help her calm down.
Absolutely outstanding.
Another excellent video. Great work, looking forward to your next one ☝️
5:07 Excellent job and attention to detail. However I wish you would explain what happened in Austria in 1955-56 when it magically de-partitioned and the NE region ceased to Warsaw Pact red...
Thanks for the Austria info - I was wondering what was going on with that part of post-war Europe and how Austria magically formed with no explanation. What gets left out is as important as what gets put in.
Austria was occupied by the USSR, FR, UK and US from 1945 until 1955 and separated into four sectors. The situation within Vienna, the capital, was similar to Berlin, with the city also being separated into four sectors, but without a big wall, like in Berlin. With the Austrian State Treaty, signed May 15th 1955 in Vienna, Austria was re-established as a sovereign state, with the USSR only signing it by making Austria promise to stay independent and not join NATO (which Austria assured by putting it in its constitution). That's why Austria to this day is not part of NATO, and together with Switzerland forms somewhat of a "neutral island" in Central Europe (militarily neutral; Austria joined the EU in '95 and the Eurozone in '02). That also may explain why many international institutions like the OSCE, OPEC, UN,... have their HQs in Vienna and why the JCPOA ("Iran-Deal") was signed there.
Hope that helps! I grew up in Vienna and am now living in Berlin ;)
geo history videos made me to love learning history
First time I've ever seen a history video that I'm currently loving through.
i highly recommend you to watch "oversimplified". It´s a completely different style, but it´s pretty funny
Very interesting, and informative video !!!👏👍
Very detailed History Tutorial, thickly packed with many useful dates and evenements. Maybe, the problem of NATO is that most part of the civil population of European Allies... nearly ignores the existance and mission of the Alliance that protects us all. sa
Why is it so interesting learning something that I already know everything about?
It never hurts to learn more /xtra details /see if you missed something.
Of course you did 😏
because of the reason why you already know about it in the first place
Crazy how different another video like this could be in 5-10 years
@Mario S since Russia cant even take on Ukraine their opinion is sort of irrelevant
@Wisemankugel Memicus I think WW3 would happen before that ! There is no way Russia would allow that to happen.
Yes crazy
I mean think about it this way: NATO is a treaty which refers to Europe + North America. Which most of Europe and North America has already joined NATO. In 5-10 years, we'll see Finland, Sweden and Ukraine join NATO. Maybe followed by Georgia and Azerbaijan.
I think Cuban crisis should have been a part of this video. Especially US installed missiles in Turkey prior to USSR Cuban missiles installation.
Also the invasion of Georgia
Precisely: maybe other very important episodes are missing also, but this is the one my limited knowledge readily identifies. Good, not apparently much biased video, but will have to see more to understand the full picture: it is so hard to find neutral/factual information. This channel, at least, seems ok.
Thank you so much , That was incredibly helpful
The Hog Rider is a fast ground troop with medium hit points, low damage, and the ability to jump over enemy Walls. He is unlocked from the Spell Valley (Arena 5). He is a quick building-targeting, melee troop with moderately high hitpoints and damage.
Is he in NATO though?
HOG RIDAH!!!!!!!!
I play clash of clans, not clash royale. Still, Hog riders are good.
Really interesting to see how we have got to the point we are now in with Ukraine and what's lead us to that. As a European (British) I find it quite disturbing to see how volatile things have been since the second world war. It will be interesting to see how Ukraine plays out ...
Another great video! Thank you!
Some errors here as the Taliban weren't Western targets. The West left after defeating ISIS and Al Qaeda so those mission objectives were achieved. Stability fell due to Afghanistan's own incompetence at warding off minor extremists.
Just wow ! Amazing content. Thanks
So informative and entertaining! Love the background music
I felt as if 50 years older at the end. The present is brought as if its another one of the thousands of WW2 videos.
After a few years, this man has to make a 2nd video
In the time from 1945 - 1955, you have added the Soviet controlled part of Austria also to the Warsaw Pact, that isn't true and the iron curtain was never built through Austria, it was build at the borders with Czechoslovakia, Hungary and Yugoslavia. Also Vienna, Austria's capital city was also splitted up by the four allied powers, only Vienna's first district was governed by all four allied powers (There is a picture of four allied soldiers, for each power one in a Jeep, which is called "Die Vier im Jeep", which patrolled the First District) also Lower Austria, Burgenland and parts of Upper Austria weren't part of the Warsaw Pact
Austria was controlled by the allies equally and the first election was held in 1945, were Karl Renner was elected head of state
Only after Stalin's death in 1953, Austria had chance of becoming sovereign, which it did in 1955
It’s funny that I had this I politics class but forgot about the most part and after watching the video I’m way better informed than my teacher could ever achieve. Sometimes I feel like KZclip could partially replace schools if you were taught „how to process data from KZclip and learn from it“
4:19 Here, Istanbul is shown as the capital of Turkey. But, Ankara has been the capital since 1923, as follows of the first world war, whereafter, Istanbul was not under it's control for a few months.
I should be studing for my tests but these top class videos are amazing!!
The fact that we are currently making a history makes me shivers
Thank you for this ❤
"From Nato to the U.N. and the E.U., the generation that lived through the first half of the 20th century knew they needed to create a new world order. An order with rules and institutions which, however imperfect, could act both as constraints on individual countries going rogue and as catalysts for co-operation for mutual benefit"
--Ed Davey

Outstanding narrative. Thanks
Very interesting and well made.
Always a good day when geo history posts
Fun Fact, literally the only reason why United Nations was able to send any sort of aid to South Korea at the time was because USSR was boycotting them. If the USSR was there, they would've vetoed and the UN wouldn't have be able to send anything to help South Korea
@Фёдор Дуболомов Oh and when is NATO going to "punish" Austria, Republic of Ireland and Switzerland?
@Вова Калинин I'm saying that if USSR had vetoed, then the UN wouldn't be able to send in aid. But America can still send aid by their own accord.
@Solid_Snake - The genocide of Serbs by Albanians in Kosovo does not concern the UN and NATO. They take a favorable side for themselves. Serbia did not want to join NATO, for this it was punished by being torn apart.
This is my first vid seen from your channel and is actually a good video now I'm subscribed and enjoying your video👍 love from Italy 🇮🇹🇮🇹
Need a lot more from u geo history love these💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
How long did it take to make this video. Looks like a whole team helped do this
This video actually paints the Ukrainian civil war and Russian invasian in a whole new light. Suddenly it all, earily, makes much more sense....
Yes. And reverse the colours and it makes even more sense. When people are not talking, bad things usually happen.
Great job! Very informative.
@Andre Hunter RUSSIAN PROPAGANDA SPOTTED
@Andre Hunter Kremlin bot. Reported.
He avoided the truth
Know how much Ukrainian military azov love's Russian speak citizens in Ukraine for 8 years, in every city Ukrainian military azov hide's behind civilians in the city's.
Hiding military bases inside appartements and public buildings, just insane.
See in Kyiv, have $ Billionaire Zelinskys military azov building up defence system around city, or are they hiding inside city among civilians ?
Know how much Ukrainian military azov love's Russian speak citizens in Ukraine for 8 years, know who behind.
If Russia stop this now, Ukrainian would keep on the genocide of Russian speak regions.
They can't allow that, strange western media silent about genocide of Russian speak citizens in Ukraine since 2014.
Is it justified because old leaders in US hate Russian ? They control western mainstream media 100%, not allowed journalist's be in Ukraine since US started working in Ukraine ?
Think people should be doing some research on your own about Ukraine since 2013, see some education videos from US Professor John Mearsheimer.
He knew what US planned in Ukraine for many years.
It's professor John Mearsheimer Job to know that.
Look at this from OSCE two days before Russia went in, see how many attacks $ Billionaire Zelinskys military azov have on Russian speak regions in Ukraine 22 February.
Two days before Russia went in to stop this genocide, this genocide on Russian speak people in Ukraine has been going on since 2014.
$ Billionaire Zelinskys military azov trying to destroying all ptz zoom cameras OCSE have set up for monitoring situation near Russian speak regions for years. But they didn't manage destroying all 200 camera's they go in those areas, video proof are already there.
People can search for days and year's years back how many attacks Ukrainian military azov have had on Russian speak regions in Ukraine on OSCE site.
Worst are that US training Ukrainian military azov for years, desember 2021 US helping Ukrainian military azov bomb Russian speak regions with drones.
Was it training Ukrainian military azov how to use drones. Killing Russian speak Ukrainian citizens ??
Ukrainian military azov killing thousands Russian speak citizens in Ukraine since 2014.
Truth are scary and insane, most scary part about this tragic scenario. Are how western governments control western mainstream media to hide genocide in Ukraine going on since 2014.
Are registered proof why Russia went in, to stop genocide in Ukraine.

Make that two new subscribers. Awesome content! ✌🏽
Great vid!! 👍 Neat to see how much NATO evolved and grew
Great vid, I love history
Great video! 👍
I think this video lacks on information about:
- Austria neutrality otherwise it would become like Germany
- why did Ukraine and Geórgia not join NATO (while other countries like Macedonia did)
- the georgia russian war
@SorbeX555 Russia protects Russian-speaking citizen, not territories. Not everywhere where Russians are still discriminated but Putin does the job better then 30 years before. Compare to Izrael.
@Алексей Пешков yeah but non of those territories are being disconnected from the country
@SorbeX555 If you count all US military base over the globe, the whole World is occupied by it.
@Igor Y That was after Greece and Turkey joined NATO
@Sceptonic tell it to Greece, man
I love how at 9:19 you can see Czechoslovakia dissolve
yes!!! its these little details that get overshadowed and tell us about geo history's dedication and attention
Geo History I love the way your videos are presented, thank you so much for getting me interested in history
NATO will bring Russia and China together and strengthen China as an ally now that Western sentiment is shifting in the negative direction towards Russia
Hopefully Mutual assured destruction will prevent an all out East vs. West war from happening...
China and russia aren’t ally but they share common interests . If russia joined nato china would be the current russia
China is hesitant to help Russia, despite the claims of how they’re bond is unbreakable.
I'm finally not clueless about what the hell is going around~ Thanks for the summary🖤
@Eh… Someone dug deep to see some qualifying comments to reply to.LMAO
It is frightening that grown adults can not know this stuff.
It would’ve been great if they kept airstrike capability over Afghanistan rather than entirely leaving the country vulnerable to terrorist takeover.
At 5:04, did anyone realize the small reference to Austria uniting?
I always wondered why there was so much rivalry between the modern-allied American and French troops. While they had a common goal, they often seemed to have a sort of rivalry that seemed a little more arrogant on both ends. A lot of people argued that Charles de Gaulle was looking out for his own people, but I could also see why American leaders might have believed that Charles disliked American leaders. Apparently both the US and Brits had a tough time with France. I only did some quick research, so I'm sure my information isn't as polished as a history book. Anyone feel free to correct me.
France and the US both wanting to be the leader is what it boils down to. The US is the de facto number one of NATO, but composes 2/3 of NATO military spending. For the other members of NATO, it’s a small price to pay for security.
@vallas wrong.
@Josh Not to mention Alexander The Great conquered Egypt with French (Gallic) mercenaries.
France was once a superpower. Napoleon conquered Egypt just like Alexander The Great had done. They, and Britain are tiny countries....easy to defend.
This was very well made.
I'm glad to see you explained the recent events nicely. Too many people default the media's inaccurate portrayal of how it unfolded.
well explained and objective
Sweden and Finland, it's worth noting, are together with Switzerland known to have been among the "most neutral" countries in the world. And Sweden has remained neutral for longer than Switzerland. Only the Russian agression with the invasion of Ukraine shifted (and very strongly) the mind of the populations from neutrality towards NATO membership.
@Фёдор Дуболомов No, _NOT "participation in... NATO wars."_ Those are Swedish instructors to the Iraqi military, in a *United Nations mission,* that the UN asked NATO to lead.
Any largescale operation needs competent leadership with experince, NATO had that so the UN asked NATO to lead it. But it _IS_ a UN operation, not a NATO or US operation, that the Swedish instructors participate in. Besides, the Swedish had nothing to do with any "war", only with instructing the countrys national military. They are school teachers, not warriors.
@Lars Ronæs - The Swedes in Iraq. News:
" On 04.01.2020, Sweden suspended the mission of military instructors in Iraq. The Swedish Armed Forces suspended the work of the mission of military instructors in Iraq after the death of Iranian General Qasim Suleimani, the Expressen newspaper reports, citing a representative of the Armed Forces."
.
It still about participation in the NATO and US wars?
@Romanus Matthaeus _"Sweden and Finland... participated in NATO _*_operations."_* Please explain, which NATO "operations"? Or do you mean NATO "exercises"? Both Finland, Russia and Sweden all participated in NATO exercises.
@lordexvar Not correct.
Finland was _NOT_ "an ally of the Nazis". They were "brothers in arms", fighting the same enemy, not allies- German troops could do certain limited operations from Finnish territory. And Finlands field marshall Mannerheim personally insulted the Nazis leader (yes Hitler) in his open face - with no counter reaction.
Sweden in WWII was _NOT_ "closely tied" with Germany. They sold iron (a lot) to Germany. And ball bearings to both the UK and Germany (so both sides). Sweden had to allow the transit of German troops to Norway (when they had control, not for invading), an aggreement they really couldn't avoid without a high risk of occupation, for 3 years. In1943 they stopped for transits.
after this video i understand the full meaning of "winners write history"
Τιμή Και Δόξα Στην Κυπριακή Δημοκρατία!
@geo history: Mistake at 01:23: The iron curtain never ran through Austria. It was all north, east and partly south of AT but the border went never through it. The occupation map of the USSR however is correct. Burgenland, Vienna, and Lower Austria were occupied by the CSSR but they were never on the east side of the iron curtain.
This video explains more in 10 minutes than most adults learned in their entire high school career.
@Ro Ki I'm Dutch and 95% of information in this video wasn't taught in school. Basically only the world war and cold war
@Ro Ki this dudes just copy pasting this all over the place, probably a bot tbh
@Andre Hunter I have no idea,, but I dont think Zelinsky is behind this development,, he is only an actor. Professor John Mearsheimer is one of many of the worlds intellectuals who have seen what is going on since many years back, and have tried to warn us.
Sadly most people dont have the time and energy to look behind the tabloids.
