What's also funny is by the time of the congress of Vienna political Zionism, which at it earliest concept was still just the idea of a Jewish nationstate somewhere in the world and not in the levant specifically, had not been invented yet (and wouldn't be for over a decade). Its inventor (Herzl) was still a teenager, although he was an Astro-Hungarian Jew. He also specifically advocated for the establishment of a Jewish state in what was Ottoman Palestine (known in 1878 as the Vilayet of Syria and Mutasarrifate of Jerusalem), and generally any other land that was suggested to them in Africa, South America, North America, Europe, or even East Asia was considered a secondary option, as even when the British offered a portion of their East African Colony for the establishment of a Jewish state the Zionist Congress voted against establishing a state there. Essentially the idea that a Jewish state could be established in 1878 anywhere but maybe a small portion of a balkanized Pale of Settlement is a joke, no imperial power at the conference considered the forced mass resettlement of Europes millions of Jews and European Jews would likely revolt at the suggestion of a Jewish state as it would go against the prevailing belief of the time, which was to either remain in Shtetls and not anger the state so the state wouldn't kill them or force them to emigrate or to prove their loyalty to their fellow countrymen by assimilating as much as possible into the country in which they found themselves. The Dreyfus Affair, which helped change many Jews minds about the value of assimilation in Europe as a defence against antisemitism and marked a shift towards the popularity of political Zionism or emigration to the Americas, wouldn't happen over a decade as well. Just want to clarify I'm not upset by this its a silly video that already isn't realistic for a number of reasons and its funny that there is a Jewish quasi state within Austro-Hungarian Madagascar in 1878, just want to explain WHY this one aspect of the video is particularly absurd.
This map really looks like a game of Victoria 2, complete with the French snaking through empty desert in central africa with like one port connecting their "empire" to the sea.
Regardless of their other "wonderful" decisions, I do have to at least applaud the viewers for not letting the Congo become Leopold II's personal playground. That's probably one of their few unambiguously good decisions here.
Along with austro hungarian madagascar. The austro hungarian guy who tried to „colonize“ it was beloved by the local population, and they said he was sent by God. So yeah, betternthan france for sure.
I am happy that Austria-Hungary got Madascar, because in real life they actually had a chance to get it. A Hungarian guy named Móric Benyovszky made some colonies there. The people really loved him, and called him as the King of Madagascar. The natives thought he was sent by their god. Unfortunately, empress Maria Theresia was not really interested in colonialism, so Benyovszky stayed there and lived with his people. He died during a battle against French colonial forces
Dude goes to do colonialism, is actually a pretty solid ruler so the people there make him their king, but because the Austro-Hungarians are a shitshow they abandon him so the french naturally ruin everything as the french often do. What a tale.
As a spaniard i loved the fact that a decaying empire embroil in civil war gets the whole african north-west. Maybe this does get prestige up and all our problems end up solving themself.
Germany had a decent navy during the naval rush period against UK. So if France intervene in favour of Germany to defend what was decided on the conference, it's a balanced fight. Also is they somehow convince Italy that its colonies are at risk if the treaty get rewritten, then its UK that could be finding itself in navy disadvantage. Spain, Portugal and Netherlands maybe irrelevant. Ottomans could use this war as excuse to size the Suez, cutting if UK from Asian colonies.

Good job to the people who voted to give most of southern Africa to the Boers. You exchanged the most powerful abolitionist power for one that fought tooth and nail to keep slavery. My condolences to the millions of new slaves in the region. Good job everyone.
I gave the Boers everything except the Boer republics themselves, which I gave to South Africa. I also gave Angola to Oman. If only my advice had been heeded, we would live in a much better world.
I have to imagine the British and French will be storming out of this conference quite early. Britain will quickly reconquer South Africa, and probably also force the Ottomans to return their protectorate over Egypt. And France will go kick in the teeth of the Spanish for Algeria and Morocco.
9:25 The best part is that Hitler (an Austrian) originally wanted to put all the world's Jews on Madagascar, only turning to the Holocaust when he realized how stupid that was
I am Austrian and I wanted Spain to have their colonies connected, the Ottomans owning Egypt, Ethopia to have a coastline and Germany to have Mittelafrica. Germany should get whole Camerum at some territory from the French Congo to have clearer borders. Except that, I am pretty satisfied. Also: Heil dir im Siegerkranz, hardbassmonkey!
The choices I picked (What I remember the most): - Independent Egypt with Cyrenaica, Morroco with its modern day borders, Zanzibar with Tanzanian coast, Rwanda, Burundi, Uganda, Sokoto, Fezzan, Ethiopia with Eritrea and Djibouti, Somalia, Lesotho, Swaziland, Kongo, Madagascar - Italy with Tunisia and Tripolitania - Germany with Namibia and Botswana - Portugal with its Pink Map claims - France with most of its OTL claims, and has the Suez Canal - Britain with some of its OTL claims, South Africa is united under a Dominion - Ottomans has the Sinai - Spain has Ceuta and Melilla, as well as OTL Equatorial Guinea
I’d say you were doing the anti colonial work at the Berlin conference but let’s be honest Ethiopia thought they were superior to the rest of Africa in exactly the same way as the Europeans
I went into this with three main goals: German Mittelafrika, Jewish African state and a continuous British colony from Mediterranean to Cape of Good Hope. This outcome leaves me with conflicting emotions.
@erdenbal6761 why would the other powers (who by this point are anti-slave) care if britian attacked the slave trading boers and ottomans, Russia and Austria would probably help them against the latter. Germany would side with whoever Russia and Austria sides with at this point in history. Spain is in a civil war in this period and broke, unlikely to be able to hold on to their colonies let alone fight the British, and the Portuguese would probably side with britian their extremely long term ally. The Dutch, france and the ottomans are not going to be able to face the above situation against britian alone.
I can co with that It is disgraceful and unprofessional behaviour allowing our rightful land to not be given to us I think the Royal Navy should be sent out to take the colonies by force
Before thanking, in the sequel video: "how UK declared war to the whole Europe because the Berlin conference f***ed up their empire" You need to hope that: Ottomans survive and decide to be friendly stability reasons. Suez get heavy monitored by Ottomans. Everyone else it's to much worried in protecting its holdings to think about invading other during the total war. Anyway I'm happy for you and the results.
@@JacquimoGamingnonsensical. Ethiopia cannot rule over Somalia. Geography, history and religion all show you that... 30% of modern day Ethiopia is literally Somali land. It's called the Somali region and it is populated and governed by somalis. Ethiopia is an assortment of different nations that speak different languages, have different cultures and different religions. Somalia is literally named after the Somali people a homogeneous society that is endogamous and because of their nomadic pastoralist and seafaring mercantilist lives that is harsh and lonely they are VERY territorial and ethnocentric.
@@JacquimoGaming The meme is funny, but stapling the two conflicting parts of Somalia onto Ethiopia is, shall we say, a bad idea. It's actually much more likely for a Somali federation to control the horn.
I can see a lot of tension coming from a result like this, but I also see other tentions being diffused, for example, I imagine that Germany would be a bit less warmongering, Wilhelm II probably wouldn’t focus as much on the expansion of Germany’s colonies as a way to prove that he is a strong man despite his withered left arm
But the problem with Algeria is that because, at the time, it was part of France (and not seen as a colony), it would never have been up for consideration in the Berlin Conference at all… right?

Madagascar being divided between Austria-Hungary and a new Israeli state is the most based and cursed shit I've ever seen on a map.
I would like to give my condolences to Madagascar for being blighted by Germans and Zionists at the same time 💔
11:30 riged jusr leave it to sokoto
As an Ethiopian i see this as an absolute win.
Thanks alot
Before thanking, in the sequel video:
"how UK declared war to the whole Europe because the Berlin conference f***ed up their empire"
You need to hope that: Ottomans survive and decide to be friendly stability reasons.
Suez get heavy monitored by Ottomans.
Everyone else it's to much worried in protecting its holdings to think about invading other during the total war.
Anyway I'm happy for you and the results.
You’re welcome
Facts brother 🇪🇹
@@JacquimoGamingnonsensical. Ethiopia cannot rule over Somalia. Geography, history and religion all show you that...
30% of modern day Ethiopia is literally Somali land. It's called the Somali region and it is populated and governed by somalis. Ethiopia is an assortment of different nations that speak different languages, have different cultures and different religions. Somalia is literally named after the Somali people a homogeneous society that is endogamous and because of their nomadic pastoralist and seafaring mercantilist lives that is harsh and lonely they are VERY territorial and ethnocentric.
@@skp8748 why did you respond specifically to me? Besides, Somalia is indeed United. Just under Ethiopia
I've been working on a decolonised map of Africa, and it's very strange going from that to a world in which Portugal rules the waves.
Don’t forget Big Ethiopia/Sokoto possibly helping out other states
@@JacquimoGaming The meme is funny, but stapling the two conflicting parts of Somalia onto Ethiopia is, shall we say, a bad idea. It's actually much more likely for a Somali federation to control the horn.
@@PlatinumAltaria that’s why I voted for the Dervish State in Somalialand
13:31 Mittelafrika has finally been achieved
Give the Czech Republic a
Silesia. pls
I guess this proves that your viewers know less about Africa than the great powers did in 1878.
I can see a lot of tension coming from a result like this, but I also see other tentions being diffused, for example, I imagine that Germany would be a bit less warmongering, Wilhelm II probably wouldn’t focus as much on the expansion of Germany’s colonies as a way to prove that he is a strong man despite his withered left arm
In the start Portugal was like
"So, how much do you want?"
Portugal:
"Yes"
The Pope approves.
I'm happy that Denmark got Dahomey.
Maybe Denmark was da real homey all a long
W Denmark
Berlin Conference
Britian: Hey guys I also want some la-
The whole of Europe: f*ck you, you have had enough
Give the Czech Republic a
Silesia. pls
You guys are just jealous we snatched up all that free real estate in real life 🇬🇧😂😂
Give the Czech Republic a
Silesia. pls
If Britain took ethiopia, sokoto and egypt, and france kept algeria this feels rather attainable
nah leave britian out
Why would Britain get Ethiopia? Egypt and Sudan makes sense.
@@the11382 They had a great desire to establish dominance over trade in that region and they didn't get much else in this map
@@THX-1138trade? Ethiopia?
I was expecting britain to not get anything. People like to root for “underdogs” so it makes sense
But the problem with Algeria is that because, at the time, it was part of France (and not seen as a colony), it would never have been up for consideration in the Berlin Conference at all… right?
Give the Czech Republic a
Silesia. pls
Guys, we failed, Denmark barely has anything, and Sweden isnt even on the map.
Denmark actually has something this time. Gotta take what you can get.
@@gengarzilla1685 it has more than the UK
This form was sooo long, it took me like 30 minutes but it was worth it
I cant believe you discounted the VALID votes for Austria. You will incur the divine wrath of the Habsburgs. AEIOU.
All the Austrians just came out to vote and they got thrown out😢
At least they got Madagascar. It's more than they gave Britain, at least.
Portugal bros got done dirty with the massive build up fr
Now Austria-Hungary has a much better survival chance in Plague Inc.
You know what, i expected a much worse outcome.

This looks like a casual Victoria 2 gamble of Africa
Give the Czech Republic a

All haill the groluis Madagascar empire

@@lumethecrow2632 Ok teacher
All hail the eternal people of Israel
Next idea should be deciding border of nations with some friends while drunk
As somebody who is Portuguese I'm happy you guys are smart and remembered about the treaty of tordesalis and gave us most of Africa as we deserve.
Tortesillas
According to the pope, only guy. Africa deserves its own destiny, just like Europe before it
