Great stuff dude!

How did the lines of battles thing go ?

This is what like, a real narrator.

Who decides who wins a battle? Seems that it’s not based solely on casualties or percentage of casualties to overall strength. Or is it?

"They believed their rights were safer in the hands of the British than the Americans." This is facts. When the British deported French Canadians to Louisiana because they wouldn't swear loyalty to the British crown, it created quite a French community there. But the US passed all kinds of laws forcing people to speak English, so eventually French died out almost entirely in the US. That's probably what would have happened to Quebec if it threw in with the Americans. Already, even before attaining independence, the Americans clearly demonstrated their expansionist tendencies and sense of manifest destiny by invading Canada and trying to seize it for themselves. Independence wasn't sufficient. They even wanted to acquire British colonies who had chosen to remain loyal to the Crown. It's also particularly ironic that the American revolutionaries imposed taxes on the French Canadians they managed to subjugate, albeit temporarily, without representation. A bit of hypocrisy eh? You know if the Americanas stuck it out with Britain, North American colonies would have all eventually gained independence. But also there would likely be substantial French holdings in North America as well. And whatever independent nation came out of it would likely function on the basis of a Westminster parliamentary system. We wouldn't be dealinlg with the current Trump shit show.

Can’t wait for the southern theater!!!

Awesome episode 🎊

This is a long time ago

Love your channel, it's not a subject widely studied here in the UK is it. It would be great to see videos on specific regiments, or famous junior leaders like Banastre Tarleton, or the foreign combatant forces like the Hessians for example. Cheers for the great work!

Can’t wait for the Southern campaign!!!

I will be falling asleep to this for quite a while so thank you for another great video!

A plesent surprise

Perfect, I was just planning to rewatch anyway!

I love this channel

I'm Honored and Proud to say I've been subbed since the first vid on this series (I believe it was one of the first vids posted to this account), and it's so inspiring to see how far this channel has gone, and one so deserving getting the viewership and support gives me Hope for the future of teaching history. Thank you, truly, for everything y'all do. This series on the Revolutionary War is one of the first, and one of the only ones, to actually describe things in good detail and teaches us so much. I'll stop there, but know I'll always be a supporter of this channel, and I can't wait to see where and what else y'all make videos and teach about, Thank you again for everything and God Bless y'all!

wooorrd

Purposeful propaganda? ................ Blaming the British congress and not the king is PROPAGANDA. The king was replaced by is son in the early 1800s. King George is considered an unstable authoritarian in English history. For any history entity to ignore the king's roll in the American Revolutionary War is incompetence or propaganda. How do you plead, history rebels? No contest do to you're an AI?

Interesting. My great grandfather, my DAR Patriot, fought at the Battle of Brandywine and Germantown. He was a Captain and was at Valley Forge with Gen. George Washington.

Comment for the algorithm thank you.

Sir or Ms, i applaud you to no end. This full recap of the revolutionary war is amazing. I wish you the best in career and in life.

A series of enlightenments, through history have exposed the anti-human practice of Monarchy. When this practice is coupled with another brutal practice, namely Empire. It is not difficult to see The human Race has evolved past this exploitative arrangement. Every human with a soul , cheers the victories of the American patriots. The British aristocracy even exploits its own people. The very ones who fight and die, to maintain this class society. George Washington is a champion of The Human Race. God bless our great General Washington.

great videos so dont take this as a harsh comment. a casualty is dead. in another video a person "fell off his horse, broke his nose and was the first casualty" here at another battle you stated "they only suffered minor casualties" there is nothing minor about being dead and a broken nose doesnt mean you are dead

Got my food! Got my drink! IM READY SIR! (Hope u all good! this video toke a lot of time that for sure.) Have a nice day!

I know what I’m doing for the next three hours. Cheers for this! . Will there be future videos?

How did the British have an empire, we got battered everywhere we went, by very inferior opposition.

I hope you enjoy the entirety of the Northern Theatre! Updates include dubbing over mispronunciations as best I could (Concord, Oriskany, Bemis, Seneca, Paoli etc.) and changing historical or editing mistakes (smallpox blankets, image of brown bess musket etc.). Thanks again for watching!

In researching my family tree, I discovered my 6th great-grandfather who enlisted in a New Hampshire regiment the day after Bunker Hill, then was at the siege of Boston, the tail end of the Quebec campaign, Trenton, Princeton, Saratoga, wintered at Valley Forge, then fought his last battle at Monmouth. He stayed in the army until mustering out in 1782.

3 Hours of a great documentary? Thank you very much

3 hours!? Eff it, I'm here for it.

OK I get that comments like this are annoying but Could you pls check out lines of battles The dev would love a shout out for it :)

Washington is more comparable to Ambrogio Spinola an Italian General in Spanish Habsburg service who was for the most part self-taught just like Washington but was very effective as a General.

Hell yeah! Love this series.

Funny how all the settlements in the video are named after English towns. As if they were British colonists.

its so interesting growing up in America and being taught the underdog patriots managed to beat the British in battle to win our freedom, but in reality, the continental army got absolutely whooped and ran off the field in nearly every engagement until the British got bored and went home lol

So basically the only reason america won is because the UK allowed them to😭

One of the commanding generals during the siege of Savannah Gen Lachlan McIntosh is my great great….grandfather. There is a statue of him in Savannah and a monument at Valley Forge. McIntosh county Georgia was named to honor my family.

Where did you get that claim that some slaves owned by Washington fought him? I know a large number would escape aboard the HMS Savage and be retaken after Yorktown. I work at Mt Vernon and we are always trying to expand our knowledge on the enslaved community there but this is a new claim that I've never heard. Great Vids by the way!

Of course they could have, but they were dealing with other priorities in Jamaica and the rest of the empire.

All Dictatorships are doomed to fall even in 2025….

John Adams is such a great series.

I grew up about 70 miles from these events and heard about this battle through my entire life bu still only had a vague notion of what happened. Great job of pulling it all together and making it blindingly clear what occurred on that day.

My sixth great grandfather, Peter Croco fought at the battle of Brandywine. He was one of the Hessians. He was wounded and placed on picket duty. In the night he defected to the American side, and when he healed, he fought with the Americans for the rest of the war.

Incredible video.

You are producing amazing content! Keep it up ❤

I always see The First and Second Battles of Trenton and Princeton as the most important battles of the War. I know about all the others, Ticonderoga, Saratoga, Cowpens, Yorktown and the others and take no glory from them. But without the victory at Trenton, then Princeton when the Americans were in the words of Thomas Paine, in the midst of "the times that try men's souls" there would have been no more battles or victories. Thank you for this excellent re-telling. Washington was right, generations yet unborn thank them yet we owe those patriots a thanks we can never repay.

Love the editing on these! One of the best channels on history out there!

The probability that the french revolution was an indide job by the americans and they still do!

Some have said that America didn't really win, but...

"Or isk ah-nee" Im sorry, but it's "O risk uh nee" Trivial but important. You probably don't like it when someone mispronounces your name.

Yeah New Yorkers fighting for the crown makes complete sense
