Nobody seems to catch Catherine’s little callback to Alexander The Great mentioning Ivan dying during a game of chess “Checkmate.” 😂
no one seems to see what Catherine has in her hands when she first shows up lol
@@monkworm421 I've noticed she threw something, but I have no clue what it was. What was it?
@@walkingsky4242 Nunchucks with Dicks for Handles
@@monkworm421 not nunchucks. It as a garotte, with dicks for handles. That's what she used to decapitate Pompey.
@@walkingsky4242well damn… 4 years later. It was a garrote wire with dick shaped handles lol
They died on video the way they died in real life.
6:06 America was still an English colony. It was called The Great War.
In fact America was involved via France and Britain's colonial disputes
one of the generals heard the term World War I from a doctor
LordAaronus they wouldn’t have used world war 1 if it was the first one. You would just say world war.
Can you reference your source?
John has a moustache anyone?
@@aggressivelymemeing he heard it from doc brown right before he jumped back to the future
6:00 America was technically part of the war. What people call the 7 years war, we call the French/Indian war.
And wasn’t it started over some disputed territory in the Ohio Valley? And a certain officer by the name Washington might hold some of the blame
I think Pompey won.
Daddy Veo ik the word play and rhyme scheme on the line “what about me Pompey?” Was perfect. Sad he didn’t get to finish
Finally, someone else who says Catherine won in one of these Terrible vs Greats reactions! She absolutely bodied everyone. Including, irl, her first husband :D
there is no proof that she killed him ;)
nah but seriously. it was just as likely to be a very fortunate event for her.
Actually Spain, Portugal, Prussia, Austria, Russia and Sweden and I think Holland also was involved in the seven years war too
Also the Mughal Empire, the Iroquois Confederacy, the Abenaki Confederacy and some small German states like Hanover and Hesse-Kassel. But the Dutch were neutral.
It was strange looking down from a hilltop at Prague (part of Austria at the time) and thinking that the Prussians attacked it because of something George Washington did in the Appalachians.
We kinda confuse things by calling the American theater of the Seven Years War the French and Indian Wat
Just Some Guy Without a Life the majority of battles in South America were between Spain and Portugal
You're onto something. Many historians do consider this the first world war (or zeroth I guess.) And it started in... Pennsylvania.
"Empress to Tsar 8, bitch, checkmate!" was the definitive mic-drop line.
I'm so happy that someone's reacting to this episode because it's one of my favourte from the season.
I'd like to mention the fact that the war of 14-18 (19) was pretty soon called "THE World War" in Germany and Austria (Der Weltkrieg)... and the concept had pretty much been around since, you guessed it, the Seven Years War. Also mind the fact that even in the two World Wars of the early 20th century many participants still WHERE colonies, dominions or dependencies, the first essentially was a War between the European Powers that by it's very nature was instantly a world war with all their colonial possessions getting involved by definition - see the Africa Campaign (Germany actually remained undefeated in this one though it had turned into a guerrilla war pretty early) and the actions fought by Japan in the Pacific gathering up Germany's colonial possessions there.
Also: Frederick the Great was fighting pretty much ALL of the European Powers at the same time from a resource poor position (Prussia was pretty much "the sandbox of the Empire") but prevailed by utilizing operative mobility (be there first - ha!), discipline (THE Prussian virtue), superior firepower (as in: troops drilled and drilled and drilled to get of three musket balls in the time that a regular musketeer got off one), aggression (attack attack attack, if outnumbered, attack, if on the defence ATTACK... though nothing pointless), British money (Prussia was essentially funded by the British as it's "Festland Degen" - it's "continental sword") and also plain dumb LUCK (Prussia was facing Russia, Sweden, Austria [remember: a Great Power until it got carved up after WW1] and France, had just lost the brutal Battle of Kunersdorf and then Tzarina Elisabeth died... and her successor instantly made peace... this is historically referred to as "The Miracle of the House of Brandenburg" because "The Dumb Luck of the House of Brandenburg" wouldn't have been nearly as cool...).
Frederick died in his chair, lounging around, as he was prone to, in a supremely un-royal dirty old uniform full of holes, an crumpled old tricorn and a supreme frown of grumpiness (he was an enlightened rules, a great state-philosopher, a magnificent badass in military matters, a great lawmaker... he was NOT a nice person and even less interested in appearance ;).
He was also an open (as in pretty much obvious to everyone but no one cared to bother an absolute monarch about this) flaming homosexual, hence "Oblige Tactics aren't exactly straight" because he was both known to have preferred strengthening one wing ad the expense of the centre and using it to crush the enemy flank... and he was not exactly straight ;).
The European theatre of the Seven Years War is also known as "The Second Silesian War" because to both Prussia and Austria it WAS this (among other things). They had already fought one over this rich province in 1740-1742 with Prussia getting to keep the loot.
I could talk about Pompeius Magnus but I'll stop here ;).
Enough history now ;).
Best regards
Raoul G. Kunz
I was looking for a comment like this, I found it, it was way more and detailed than what I would have said and known, and I learned even more about Frederik than I did last year in history class.
Thank you very much for this
@@Babschi Thanks, happy to put some 10 years of history studies at the university to some use ;).
Best regards

The seven years war was the prequel to ww1
It can’t be a world war without America..
Yeah defiantly do some more reading up on Fredrick and the seven years war 😂😉
He doesn't need to read up on Frederick "defiantly", but he should, definitely read up on him.
Your boy was enjoying the beat at first but he looked confused as shit for the rest of the battle lol
Though...that's a pretty normal reaction when showing people ERB at first.
Pompey The Great was part of the Roman Triumvirate (before it became an empire) which also included a guy named Cassius and another guy named Julius Caesar. Pompey was a young but high ranking general. Early career military exploits are what earned him "The Great", which was a title of "Magnus" awarded by the government. Kind of like a Medal of Honor or the Nobel Prize, but history knows him best for sneaky bullshit and taking credit for other generals' victories. He married Caesar's daughter, who died in childbirth, the child didn't survive either. Drove a rift between Pompey and Caesar in the years leading up to Caesar taking power in Rome. Here's how it played out: Pompey decided he wanted total control of Rome so he aligned himself with a political conservative party from the Senate, then while Cassius was distracted fighting battles of conquest in another country, fought Julius in "Caesar's Civil War" and ended up being chased to Egypt where he was assassinated. This gave Caesar a villain to fight and and excuse to complete Rome's transformation from a republic to an empire. It's the source material for how Star Wars's Emperor took power. Pompey was one of the best generals under Julius and the history on him is as interesting as Julius Caesar himself, but obviously ERB couldn't fit all that in. Easier to have Cathy kick Pompey's can down the road, she's more badass anyway.
Oh, and Ivan was maybe the first czar of Russia. :-) I studied history, but don't quote me for I am old and feeble now. :-(
Many people refer to the 7 years war as ww0 but in the u.s. it's called the French & Indian war
Yeah, if you watch Mr. Terry's reactions, he says the same thing about the Seven Years War. And since he's a history teacher reacting to this stuff, I guess that means it's legit. ;)
Ivan was the best. The character, the voice, the mannerism. His definitely one of the best character ERB created.
In terms of the battle, Ivan won. He manipulated and tricked every one and that counts as a win.
In terms of rapping and lines, Alexander won. He did great.
My least favorite was the last one. It really ruined the flow for me and was disappointed she didn't die as well.
I totally agree with you on this
There's more to the seven years war than Britain and France. The Other major powers where involved as well. Prussia and Britain versus Austria, France and Russia (who weirdly switched sides for a brief time in the middle of the war, because a new Tsar came to power). Anyways, Id definitly like to see you make a video on the seven years war.
Especially about Frederick the Great. He can be considered the man who laid the foundation for the small Prussia to become a permanent major power in europe (and later found the German Empire)
I'm hesitating between Catherine and Frederick, because it's true that Catherine survived the battle, but Frederick died of old age, which, honestly, I see this as an absolute win. Not to mention the fact he delivered some good 12 bars and a FLUTE BUSTING PRUSSIAN *Old Fritz! Old Fritz! Old Fritz! Old Fritz!*
It’s a worldly war, not a world war. And definitely not a world at war.
The term "World War I" was coined by Time magazine on page 28b of its June 12, 1939 issue. In the same article, on page 32, the term "World War II" was first used speculatively to describe the upcoming war. The first use for the actual war came in its issue of September 11, 1939
In the US, we call the Seven Years War the French and Indian War. However, that was the war that lead to the Revolution.
Gotta do more ERB!
He says he will skip "goofy" ones
i mean theres been a shit ton of wars before the seven years war
I thought the seven years war was primarily between austria and prussia
By any definition, the Seven Years’ War was the first world war. The term «world war» was simply not coined in the 1750-60s. I guess whoever came up with that title for the Great War of 1914-1918 thought «The Five Years’ War» sounded a little underwhelming 😜
I’d say the 30 years war was the first World War. There were also Battles in American colonies BTW.
I like that shirt the guy on the left is wearing!
America was involved in the Seven Years War. though, at the time we were still part of the British Empire. over here the war was called the "French and Indian War." the Seven Years War started in the "Americas" between the British and French fighting over territory. it then spread to Europe with other European powers joining in the fight. Frederick (the Great) was the King of Prussia at the time. Prussia fought on the British side. and you are correct sir, the Seven Years War was the first world war.
Your buddy is right, it was called "The Great War" by Europeans, the World War by Americans
it's not a world war without america showing up three years late
Yes ww1 was just called the great war its when ww2 happened that they nammed it ww1 but before that the seven year war was a war between most europian countries
The 7 years war started because of amerika. They had disputed claims in America (Ohio).
America*
had to give you a like for the America world war thing, and yeah ww1 was called the great war in USA, plus its a world war needs England ,world speak our language BOOYAH
I totally won this one.
Catherine was a real boss bitch. How the hell do you overthrow your own damn husband? Boss!
Here's the Seven Years War in a nutshell:
*Prussia:* Now that Britain is out ally we can take Saxony and continue to expand our growing German kingdom and everyone will be too afraid to attack us.
*Holy Roman Empire, France, Russia:* Get him!
*Spain & Sweden:* Hey wait, we're coming too!
*Prussia:* Uh, a little help Britain?
*Britain:* You're doing fine over there in Europe! You got this! We're going to go fight in our colonies to expand our Empire. Bye.
*Prussia:* Wait, what? Hey, I actually do kind of got this...
*Russia:* DIE!!!
*Prussia:* Oh no I can't hang on much longer!
*Russian Leader Dies and is Replaced*
*Russia:* Hey Prussia, we didn't mean that earlier bro. We're coming to help!
*Spain & Sweden:* ok, bye guys!
*France & Holy Roman Empire:* What!? Time out!
@6:06
Funnily it was fought because OF America, France and England had a border dispute over french colonies in the Americas, a french (IIRC) leader got murdered by a native working for the Brits and well, Prussia(what would become one of the main kingdoms that'd form Germany later so, you know, Germans in world wars are like America, an essential ingredient), England, France and alot of others got dragged into the conflict.
So yeah a lotta folks believe that was the first "world war" at least in modern history.
Last of The Mohicans was set during the 7 years war wasn't it? Alexander was poisoned and died during a feast, I think. Keep up the good work!
They obviously didn't call it WW1 before WW2 began, it's not like they were predicting another one would come
Yep, It Was Called The "Great War"
Let's see what powerful african countries have to say.

Nice video. 👋

America was in the 7 years war. The French and Indian war was part of the 7 years war.
New sub!!
2:13 alexander died of sickness meaning no one ever killed him in battle, while ivan was poisoned during a chess game
what are you talking about? Ivan had a stroke while playing chess.
Yeah and Alexander didn't die of sickness, he was poisoned.
@@lordskysixss you are completely correct
@@ramennoodles7952 technically nobody really know to this day what killed Alexander the great
Ww1 was called the war to end all wars...then hitler said hold my beer
The Seven Years War was started over a border dispute over Ohio. North America was definetely involved.
America wasn't a Country until years AFTER the 7 Years War had ended.
Murica was kinda involved, thats the french and indian war for us. We were brits then tho
Nobody was thinking in 1914 - "Shit! this is the first of two world wars!"
It was called "The Great War" ... then the Donald Trump of Germany came along and helped us into World War II.
At that stage ... we needed to differentiate between the two different global wars ... so they were referred to (sensibly) as "World War I" and "World War II".
@Rory Mulligan YEp, I don't understand why people jsut can't do their research and realize that he isn't a horrible baby eating nazi. The Democratic party loves spreading that shit all day. I just find it funny since he won despite the media laughing at him during the election but then weep and cry when he actually wins.
Alexander was killed by poison....
Frederick died in his chair....
Pompey died on his way to a speech...
Catherine's political opponents spread rumors that she died having sex with a horse....
Ivan died during a chess game...
- This happened in history and in the rap battle....
Pompey died going Egypt to seek refugee before attempting revenge on Julius Caesar. He got off the docks only to be stabbed and beheaded.
You dont need America for a world war lmaoo
America's strategy during world wars: Wait Until The End Of The War, Then Join In So You Can Say You "Fought In The World War" Then Act As If You Contributed Alot To The War.
@@CatholicWeeb Germany's strategy during world wars: piss off as many countries as possible and have useless allies, so not only do you have to deal with multiple enemies at once, but you also have to send reinforcements to save your allies becasue they're getting stomped without you. Then act surprised when you lose.
@@CatholicWeeb That is insulting to the soldiers who fought and died in that war. Shameful. Without America the nanzis would of overtaken all of Europe and then eventually America too. It was the combined effort of the US and the British that broke the nazi strangle hold in Europe. The US joined the fight because they were attacked by the Japanese at Pearl Harbor in 1941, and since the Japanese were allied with the nazis, by proxy America was attacked by the Axis Powers as a whole. So this who "wait until the end and say you did something" BS is false.
@@CatholicWeeb untrue
Ivan had a heart attack in the middle of a game of chess. fredrick went to sleep in his chair and never woke up Pompey too power and was immediately beheaded catharine was rumored to have had sex with her horse which centuries later was debunked I believe she died an old woman dont quote me about her though
Pompey took power with the Third Triumvirate, he and Caesar alliance fell apart as they fought each other for more power. Caesar won at the Battle of Pharsalus.
Pompey fled to Egypt where the Pharaoh owed him an favor he got off his boat only to be stabbed and beheaded. For Egypt went into an alliance with Caesar with Cleopatra.
I mean... wasn't World War 2 referred to as that before America entered it?
Native Americans were combatants in the 7 year war. So America was involved 😉
I think they specifically referred to the Nation known as the United States of America, my dude.
@@belisarius6949 I know. I was being cheeky.
How can Baseball, Basketball and Football champions be called world champions? Nobody knows!
Catherine’s original name was Sophia and was German.

Whoever decided to translate Ivan's nickname as "terrible" should be hung to be honest.
Hmm yes I agree.

@@chaoswraith yet that's how most people seem to use it. Original Russian word doesn't have that option of meaning "bad".
@@RusZugunder Not just Russia the whole world meaning/definition of Terrible (during this time) was more Savage and Merciless, not bad.
@@axelmok4_channel391 fair enough. I'm just saying that it just means something like your examples, maybe more like "intimidating" even in today's Russia.
pompey won esaily
