The History of the Caribbean: Every Year
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
- The history of the Caribbean begins with the migration of several groups from the mainland Americas around 7000 years ago. These groups were almost wiped out shortly after the arrival of Europeans in 1492 transmitted Old World diseases to the region. Several of the Americas' oldest cities were founded in the Caribbean throughout the 16th Century as the Spanish Empire conquered many of the larger islands.
Other European states, notably England, France, and the Netherlands, colonised the Caribbean in the 17th Century. Despite the constant threat of piracy, these small colonies thrived into the 18th Century. By 1800, many of Europe's wealthiest colonies were located in the Caribbean, supplying luxury goods such as sugar back to the Old World.
With the abolition of slavery in the 19th century, plantations became less economically viable, and the region as whole lost importance. The 20th Century was marked by several American interventions in the Caribbean, as well the the independence of most European colonies.

The “pirates” symbol is hilarious. Just like cartoonishly described pirates.
And I like that their color was black
That was their flag irl. The jolly roger. Or More accurately, One of their flags
red eyed tree frog: Darn it! I forgot all about the Jolly Roger! How!
You want to know more about them then look at this video. ruclips.net/video/ZWXpSmEdSto/видео.html
Jaaaargh!!! Miharties!!!!
You actually showed the cacicazgos of Hispaniola, thank you so much! Love on behalf of the Dominican Republic and my Taino ancestors.
Whats the cacicazgos of Hispaniola?
@@StreetDrilla Glad you asked! A cacicazgo is what a Taino (the native inhabitants of the Greater Antilles in pre-Columbian times) chiefdom was called. The map shows the cacicazgos present on the island of Hispaniola at the time of the Spanish conquest of the island.
If smallpox didn't exist, there would still be people of 100% Taino descent.
@@gav1233 Though I'd like to have that kind of optimism, there were plenty of other plagues that devastated the natives besides smallpox. Not to mention the conquistadors and their brutal subjugation of the region. Luckily, their blood lives on to this day in Puerto Ricans, Dominicans, and Cubans among others.
How much Taino descent do you have?

@@corentinkaiservonhohenzoll9114 Well, both of those have already been done multiple times.
You didn't included the San Andres y Providencia islands that where colonized by the Spanish, the English, the Dutch, took by the Pirates and served as a headquarter to Henry Morgan, recovered by the Spanish and then liberated by a French corsaire at the service of Simón Bolívar and Santander who ended up claiming the islands for Colombia.
The Islands are important because they grant Colombia sovereignty over a large portion of the Caribbean Sea as these are actually closer to mainland Nicaragua.
It's strange that he didn't include them, as Saba, Saint Barthélemy, Sint Eustatius and Sint Maarten are all much smaller than San Andres y Providencia yet you can still clearly see them in the video.
Si la isla era española ya estaba «liberada».
So Spanish Empire ruled the region and extended it's territorial control until 1800 the other powers tried to conquer the smaller islands. Funny when I saw danish and swedish empires trying to take one of the smallest islands.
I guess Spain was a strong power despite all the problems but history will treat it unfairly since.... It's Spanish.
That's why nordic history is idealized glorified because they are closer to english speaking, while Spanish is not. So while Spain was a true empire his history will never be treated fairly mainly due to the cultural bias.
Just...I am from Spain and...here in Spain some people hate our own culture and history...So...Thanks man :)
(Sorry, my english is work in progress :\) Love from Spain :D
True
True. Thats it, anglocentrism
@Anglo Commando That lasted more than your empire
@Anglo Commando Don't resort to the Commonwealth as an argument to say that you continue to maintain an empire because it is absurd, each member country has its own autonomy. You are no longer an empire, you have four small colonies told that you don't let go even to keep an imperial pride that years ago ceased to be a reality. Its simply a European country with a strong economy and international prestige because it has been one of the last great powers, but come on, don't flirt that with the nonsense of Brexit we will see how you are doing. Weare still not like the ass and fear this future government gives, but don't believe that you are going to do well outside Europe. The same thing happened to us in 1898, we had a blind imperial pride that immediately showed us reality, now you are living your particular 1898
the music sounds like pirates of the caribbean
Pirates = British Empire
"Privateer" term is more appropriate for them
The French also sent corsairs to the Caribbean. Actually they sent them before the British
Butthurt Spaniard.
Lol another Spanish Empire cuck seething at the loss of their prized Carribbean territories to the British.
pirates are corporate hierarchy busineses that have not alegiance to countries, so thats bucaners, privaters, corsairs, etc acting in behalf of jerusalems germanic royals and his pawns
britain, portugal and rest of spain only were mercenary bases of germany and rhine river area royal houses that fighted against each other to control jerusalem bleaching terrorist expansion
I like how you include and called the Couronian kingdom an “Empire” 😆
It was not even a Kingdom, it was a Duchy, and it was a vassal state of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, so it was hardly even independent.

You ever think, that the Caribbean is the most important region of the Americas, because that is where history began to change for the world?
It's a very important one
It is because this is where Columbus landed bringing the Age of Discovery. The sugar plantation were the foundation of the capitalism to replace mercantilism and helped powered the Industrial Revolution
Every literally overlooks the Caribbean and it forget it was the gateway that made many European powers rich today
If you put it this way...

Well, they better push in the votes next time.
Even though the majority of the population wants statehood?
We are comfortable in our status quo, and mayority of us want a permanent relationship with USA, either statehood or ELA. 🇵🇷🇺🇸
Small change to the intro card: American invasions, "intervention" is just a euphemism.
They were just that tho. Interventions. The US didn’t want to keep the islands. Just stabilize them and prevent others from getting them. That’s why the only land the US kept was Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands (which the US bought)
"Others" already had these islands, sometimes the locals other times still colonial overlords, so they didn't prevent anyone from getting the islands they prevented those factions from keeping their own islands. The virgin islands were bought, Puerto Rico was literally annexed in a war with Spain - they kept half of those gains in the invasions as you observed so precisely, the other half was stable before or went through the same struggles as the US itself did but got far right puppet dictators like Cuba anyhow to stabilize one thing. That being profits. The thing that you might be thinking about is the so called Monroe Doctrine, which mentions the US sphere of influence over the americas and was part of the justification given before invading southwards as things didn't just end at someone writing on some paper.
Argacyan okay? There’s nothing to say to that. We said the same thing in a different way
Fuck You
I love how movies makes us believe pirates were all over the caribbean when they really just lived most of the time in two tiny puertorican islands
Port Royal Jamaica, Tortuga Haiti, New Providence, St Lucia, Martinique, Guadeloupe.. They were everywhere
@@toparriveria3478 you mean literally just the eastern Caribbean, and the Bahamas?
@@disrespecc9678 everything controlled by the british
You giblet-head, they WERE all over. That was just occupied land. That doesn’t mean they were not patrolling the sea…
They were almost everywhere just in different timelines
You even showed Curland temporarily owning Tobago. That's impressive
The capital of Santiago (later Jamaica) was St. Jugo dela Vega. Spanish town is the English name given after the British came.

Oh this is why the US took control of the Virgin Islands and Haiti...arrr!
Michael Alexander Calì Didn't they buy the Virgin islands from Denmark?
@@axelandersson6314 Some of them, the others were stolen from the spanish
Michael Alexander Calì Haiti had been independent for centuries and were only occupied temporarily due to the fact that they had suffered through 6 coups in 5 years, and the instability meant that there was a threat that the Germans could land in the region.
The UN currently has an identical mission to keep the region from collapsing into a civil war.
@@axelandersson6314 I know, I know, I was just joking on the fact that the US occupied those places just in seach of pirate treasures ^-^

You kept "French Empire" after 1815 and all through the Third Republic. Maybe you meant "French colonial Empire"? "French Empire" really refers only to 1804-1815/1852-1870.
That's exactly what he means. Denmark has never been referred to as an 'Empire' before. The meaning is colonial empire.

@C R dude, no
@C R i am from the domimican republic and the things Christopher Columbus and his thugs did were terrible. The diaries of a man who followed them described of what happened. And brazil is not the only place you know. All the formelly spanish controller areas included my own, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Mexico, Columbia, Panama, Honduras, Guatemala, Venezuela, Uruguay and Argentina had african slaves brought by the Spanish. Many were either mixed or genocided of by the iberian Argentins in the 1880's for example. And there would of not been Tango if not for the African slaves. You might not want to believe me but it is the truth. And i am not making them spaniards as evil today but they certainly were in the past.

This is by far the best dynamic mapping done of Caribbean history till date!
(BTW - Portuguese Barbados was not noted)
you mean British Barbados? it was British for like 500 years. Portugal never owned it only tried claiming it from 1532 to 1620 but the British were a far stronger power
3 nations should have been colored: cuba, haiti, dominican republic. Why? Their influence in the region and the fact that they were and are one of the strongest caraïbean contries. How do I know? I am from there.

Montserrat was Irish territory from 1632-1666.

No it wasnt
@@mikeoxsmal8022 I wrote this a year ago and I was wrong sorry. I must have misread something about the french invasion of Montserrat.

Great video! So, are you ever planning on branching out from just history videos into other subgenres of mapping, or not? You should.
ARGHHHHHH!!!!
The modern border that you see with Haiti and the DR did not occur until the 1930's. Why? Because Haitians started dumping their citizens on purpose on our side to take more lands. The haitians then decided to claim the lands as theirs and, thus, Trujillo and the Haitian government did a treaty. The actions that haiti did was annexing lands off of the DR

Los puerto riqueños deberían aprender de sus vecinos y buscar su independencia, no hay excusa porque los demás países de las antillas menores son más pequeños que ustedes
Para que? Si estamos bien así, mejor que muchos países que andan huyendo a los Estados Unidos y tenemos la ciudadanía americana
@@mikaelortiz1739 Ni pa' tanto. Puerto Rico lleva 15 años de depresión económica con una prosperidad falsa que solamente surgió por el interés estratégico durante la Guerra Fría. Se acabó la guerra y EE. UU. redujo grandemente el nivel de privilegios contributivos para industrias manufactureras entre 1996 y 2006. Hoy día, casi todos nuestros vecinos caribeños independientes tienen un crecimiento económico e inversiones internacionales a una escala mucho mayor que Puerto Rico. Sí, en general les falta alcanzar más desarrollo económico, pero aquí andamos estancados añorando un pasado que no es tan bueno como aparenta.

Dominican Republic used to be Dominica but now it’s Dominican Republic 🇩🇲→🇩🇴
The other countries took the islands that Spain did not want
Spain was quite neglectful of its insular positions, as it was crazed with the gold, silver and gem rushes in the continental parts of the Americas (Mexico/New Spain, Colombia/New Granada, Peru, and Río de la Plata/Argentina and Bolivia). Only once the French, Dutch and British (and a few other small players) started snatching the smaller Caribbean islands did the Spanish invest heavily in fortifying the strategic seaports of the Greater Antilles and of the Caribbean coasts of Mexico, Central America and South America.
good one, but you need to change name of pirats occupations. I never know Haiti was a pirate colony before be french.
There were tons of much older indigenous american cities from as far north as canada to as far south chile in pre-columbian, including in the carribean and in some places in the americas there were cities many thousands of years old
Seems like you dont know History Because Trinidad gained independence in 1498

Didn't even know pirates had Viequez for a few hundred years
Culebra and Vieques have been this strange buffer zone throughout Caribbean history. At the time when Spanish colonization began, the Taíno were at war against the Caribs, who were migrating from the Leeward Antilles to Puerto Rico, and both islands were at the front lines. Then, as more European colonists snatched up the area, this area became a hot bed for pirates and contraband, as these islands are quite small and not that elevated (limited water supplies) and thus not amenable to sustaining large populations. It wouldn't be until the British and Danish established a firm presence in today's Virgin Islands that Spanish colonial rule from Puerto Rico took clear actions to establish a proper presence in Culebra and Vieques, which then became municipalities of Puerto Rico in the 19th century. Then, during American colonial rule, the USA tried to expel the inhabitants to turn both of these islands into military bases, forming the Roosevelt Roads Naval Base between Ceiba (a coastal municipality with a deep bay on Puerto Rico's eastern side) and the two islands. A combination of massive protests and the scale-back of military investment following the Cold War eventually forced the cease of military activities in this region. Nowadays, both of these islands are confronting severe neglect from Puerto Rico's government.
