Is this gonna be a series that extends to other countries in their respective centuries? Or go further back and do one listing English/British Monarchs, that's a list I'd like to see.
"in South Africa tensions continued to rise, and the Second Boer War broke out .." That is glossing over who was responsible for that rise in tensions.
Just a nice trivia: John Russell was the grandfather of Bertrand Russell, arguably one of the most influential philosophers and mathematicians of the 20th century.
There's a cool video on youtube from the 1950s where old Bertrand Russell talks about his memories of John Russell, and mentions how John was born during the French Revolution and even met Napoleon at Elba.
I can't tell you how much I laughed at the fact that a Prime Minister was brought down by failure to pass a law making private assassinations by British subjects illegal. How British can you get?
You've put a lot of effort into this. It was great.
Apologies for the overuse of 'and'.... Only realized it in the edit.

I was more testing the waters with new series. Seems this one isn't too popular.

Lord Palmerston Pit Delder
nice, thank you I hope you do 1902 to 2020 in Two parts/This is Super work you have done on this series
Why are you the only one on YT with an extensive video on British PM history (and not just a list of who succeeded who)
One thing I can appreciate about Lord Salisbury above everything else is his extremely cool chair that he has in the back of his portrait.
THANK THE KING the audio is better on this one
I love how there is only 7 pms in this video, they just had 3 non consecutive terms each

And to this day Venezuela still tries to claim the vast majority of my home Guyana
Jabzy, are you gonna make any more videos on Southeast Asian history?
Thank you, I really needed to know this to understand colonial imperial British policy, as much of it was usually domestic

I say the UK’s greatest prime minister was Lord Palmerston!
I think you mean William Pitt.
