what about Mobutu Sese Seko Kuku Ngbendu wa za Banga: "The all-powerful warrior who, because of his endurance and inflexible will to win, will go from conquest to conquest leaving fire in his wake." The only one who gets anywhere close is the presitator of China's thousands of titles.
I feel this vid could have a part 2 since there are so many other terrible rulers who could be covered. One that I know of yet almost no one seems to talk about is King Zhou of Shang, the last ruler of China's Shang Dynasty.
Are you kidding??? The truly dubious terms of leadership fails on Planet Earth are so prolific and of such voracity that this could (should?) be its own SERIES! ;o)
Matthew Schooley People who weren’t mentioned: Ivan the Terrible - Killed a buncha his own people Vlad the Impaler - The name states it all Joseph Stalin - Killed anywhere from 30-60 million people in Gulags and famines. Adolf Hitler - Just a general arsehole. To name a few.
LentoturmaHub, might venture that Vlad Tepes is regarded in Romania as something of a Folk Hero... as odd as it sounds, it's dubious to prospectively decry him a "terrible ruler"... Sure, he was plenty vicious, and the outsiders who eventually conquered and wrote the history decry him "demonic"... BUT to his own people, he's regarded with a strange mix of fear and admiration. Similar could be said of Genghis Khan, Cleopatra Ptolemy, and others... NOT everything you find in the easiest to reach literature is absolute... Otherwise, in your list... You have most of it about right... though the numbers vary a bit more wildly around Stalin... ;o)
@@gnarthdarkanen7464 I was aware of Vlad's treatment, and as they say, "Victors write the history books" ;) And yes, the Stalin numbers are greatly inflated. It was probably more like 10-20 million people between 1917 and 1991 killed directly by the government. Then just add a few million killed by wars and famine. But back to Vlad, he still did impale his political enemies, right?
LentoturmaHub, Among the victims of his wrath, yes... AND for the record, a horrible way to execute someone... Horrible enough to earn a documented excommunication from the Roman Catholic Church... not that they were the supreme authority of humane treatment either...(lolz) Romans were fairly well known for their antagonistic and torturous approaches to executions... Barbecued ALIVE in a giant bronze oven the shape of a bull comes to mind as pretty friggin' gruesome... So I wouldn't rate Vlad as "demonic" just on his principles of torture... He had around a couple hundred in his army against THOUSANDS of Turkish invaders at the time... That impailment display served a purpose even more than some personal vindications... Locals (Romanians, particularly) regarded the invading Turks as the worst of approaching evils, so the admittedly short term Vlad DID manage to keep them at bay or turn their ranks around is what still got remembered if you ever visit. Yeah, that includes the dubious distinction of "Stragoy" (phonetic spelling, I'm terrible in Romanian)... along with a litany of ghoulish folk-tales, but it's as much "color" for his reputation as any historical facts or context. AND as long as we visit the dubious distinctions of body-counts, I've seen anywhere from the suspiciously conservative estimates of 10 or 20 million under Stalin's rule to an excess of 300 million... numbers of a kind to put Hitler's own body count utterly to shame... Now, I'm not (nor have I ever been) particularly invested in Russian documentation or historical accountancy... And I would find any estimates upwards of 200 million probably more propaganda than remarkably calculated... BUT Russia is also a VERY large area with a LOT of highly secretive and reclusive territories, so it wouldn't be out of the "do able" range... Let's also not forget to appropriately charge the famines suffered as part of the Russian Government's responsibility, since it's a direct Governmental rule that dictated literally EVERY detail that so contributed, and not JUST the Gulags... ;o)
+rageface memeaholic yeah but it kinda wasn't as crazy as it seemed. really just a huge insult to the Senate. he wasn't as crazy as thought but bad very evil. he was loved at first
Didn't Caligula also declare war on Neptune (God of the sea), marched his army up to the sea, and ordered his soldiers to start stabbing the water? That is one of the few things I still remember from learning Latin for 4 years.
No... I'm pretty sure the "reasoning" was the SAME... Oh, the particular details of CONTEXT might vary a bit... here and there... but THEY definitely had the SAME idea regarding "Soft Sword"... ;o)
Mary queen of Scots, while in the tower of london, was in league with a order planning to kill liz and put Mary in charge. Letters were intercepted (royal in the tower of London were surprisingly well treat as no matter what in Britain and Europe royal blood was seen as closer to god than common blood, it's all part of the status ladder during Tudor england) so the trial wasn't bogus. Liz hated that fact she had to kill,after the magna Carta was signed, it was impossible for a monarch or ruler in Britain to get off sxlf free as the law should be app.ied to them as it was applied to the common folk. So Liz found it hard to pardon her as she needed the support of parliament to aid her in becoming o e of the greatest queens of Britain. So pardoning Mary would put Liz in a sticky situation with parliament and sully her name to the people who came to know her as a queen so committed to her nation she retained her virginity (as she had no real partner) so to pardon Mary would risk Liz her thrown. And Mary wanted to kill liz anyway to take her thrown, she came to England only to escape the nobels but her plans on taking the English thrown were very real.

As a Belgian citizen, I immediately thought of Leopold 2, but I didn't expect him to actually be in the list. Also, someone says we didn't learn it in history, but that's not true. Everyone learns it and it hasn't even been that long since Congo officially became a free country 😅
Caligula sounds like he had some sort of paranoid schiso. Mania, hallucinations, war on the sea, crossdressing, maybe even believing he was someone he wasn't, putting himself up to be a god. The symptoms only show up after adolescence too. And 'little boots' isnt even that bad of a nickname. Especially as a kid. Id find it endearing. And even without losing empathy due to exposure of death and destruction he seemed to keep a smart mind until he got sick. Its either that or someone put him through a shit ton of mushrooms.
David Livingstone didn't work for King Leopold 2, Henry Morton Stanley was funded by the New York Herald in 1871 to find him in Africa. Stanley started working for Leopold 2 in 1879.

Tiberius was actually like 1000 times worse than Caligula, so much so, that the people of Rome initially loved Caligula as he was thought to have poisoned Tiberius.
whoa whoa whoa that info about Mary Stuart is inadequate. Darnley wanted her to die but he didn't make an attempt on her life. He and his bros tore her lover, David Rizzio away from her side and stabbed him 52 times. They hoped to induce a miscarriage which may have imperiled her life. Also no one knows exactly who killed Darnley.
Mao Zedong should've been on this list. He diverted labor from farming to metal refineries and massive infrastructure projects. The resulting famine killed tens of millions.
I kind of feel bad for Mary, I mean how are you supposed to run a country at that young of an age? I'm pretty sure she just wanted to prove herself to her subjects, she just failed horribly at it
People now-a-days really over estimate the likeliness of a nuclear war. M.A.D. is still a thing, like the United States and Russia would probably never go to war or even consider using nukes unless the other attacked them or fired one off first.
Hm? Clinton would've stopped it by not letting Russia do anything in Europe. Trump is letting Russia have free reign pretty much, so when Trump is gone, well, Fallout explains it pretty well.
Yeah my ruler doesn’t measure correctly and also it’s pink... hot pink. And it’s covered in Caillou. Also it doesn’t have centimetres (I live in Canada)
Where's Hitler??!! Where's Genghis Khan??!! Where's Tamerlane the Great??!! (Timur built a tower of enemy skulls) I guess the first two were a bit obvious.. but not Tamerlane...
