    Hello everyone. I'm a German history student who happened upon this lecture. First and foremost, I must say I'm deeply impressed by the speaker's skills and the wealth of knowledge being shared here. However, I'd like to point out two minor errors that caught my attention.
    When Dr. Casagranda began talking about Prussia, he mentioned that the Polish king called upon the Prussians to fight for him. In fact, the Prussians were one of the tribes living in the present-day Baltics who posed such challenges to the Polish kings. So, it wasn't the Prussians he called upon, but rather the Teutonic Order. This was a knightly order, akin to the Knights Hospitaller or the Knights Templar, founded during the First Crusade in the Holy Land, which, after the collapse of the Crusader states, sought territories. After an unsuccessful attempt in the Balkans, it established its own domain in the Baltics which was called Prussia much later. Following the Reformation, the Order's territory became a secular duchy, and because the last Grand Master came from the House of Hohenzollern, he became its duke. However, this line of the house eventually died out, and Prussia thus passed to Brandenburg, which was also ruled by the Hohenzollerns.
    The second minor error concerns the statement: "Prussia is an army without a state." In fact, I'm not familiar with this exact phrase; rather, it's often quoted slightly differently: "Other states have an army, but the Prussian army has a state." This phrase doesn't originate from the time when the Teutonic Order conquered the territories of Prussia, but rather from the 18th and 19th centuries. Allegedly attributed to the French statesman Honoré Gabriel de Mirabeau, this statement refers to the militarization in Prussia, which began not until after the Thirty Years' War, flourished in the 18th century, and was further strengthened after the Napoleonic Wars through the "Prussian reforms."

    A bit with Prussia is a bit more complicated. Polish duke granted land to Teutons (Knighty Order) to defend agaisnt "real' Prussians that were pagan baltic people. Teutons were effective but also very ambitious and through machinations finally established independent state. State consisted of lands taken from polish dukes and conquered territories from Prussians(in series of papaly approved crusades). In conquest and administration they were very effective and very brutal creating suprisingly powerful medieval state. Large income was also generated from crusades, as western knights paid a lot to participate in holy raids againts pagans. After around 150years Poland finally consolidated and allied with LIthuanians to retake stolen lands and remove Teutonic threat. After series of wars Teutonic State was cut down to East Prussia only, and finally in 1525 they secularized into protestant Duchy of Prussia as vassal of Polish Kings. In 1618 the Prussian line of Hohenzollern has ended and Brandenurgian Hohenzollerns took over and formed personal union. Then in 1657 Duchy of Prussia became soveregin, in 1701 King in Prussia title was established. And then, after some 40-50 years , militarization really became so radical that we can say of state built around army.

    I only discovered these lectures by Dr Casagrande a few weeks ago and I can't get enough of them! I do have to take issue with him over the end of WW1. In the final 3-4 months of the was, after the German offensive was stopped the German army was comprehensively beaten. The arrival of large numbers of US soldiers was a really crucial factor. After the war a myth arose that Germany's defeat was due to a collapse on the home front. This myth of "the stab in the back " was used by the Nazi's. It's simply not true, the army was beaten and that was like the last straw!

  • @leonidfedyakov366
    @leonidfedyakov366 4 месяца назад +5

    His story is so inaccurate! Greece got independence in 1832, not in 1850’s. Russia didn’t declare war on Austria-Hungary, she only started mobilization and then Germany declared war on Russia on 1 August 1914 and Austria-Hungary followed on 6 August. The British didn’t want to enter the war. The Germans didn’t want to fight the English. Russia wasn’t the first to invade another superpower - the French attacked Germany on August 7, while Russia attacked Germany 10 days later. Britain was outbuilding the German navy because they had a doctrine of being stronger than two any other navies combined, so it wasn’t competition of Britain against Germany, but vice versa. He forgot to mention that Russia tried to seize the Hawaiis in early 19 century but was kicked out by the Americans. Japan annexed Korea in 1904, not in 1895. Alliance between England and France wasn’t the first in Europe, Germany and Austria had got it before. His gesturing doesn’t help to improve his narrative.

    • @jacobbartley1945
      @jacobbartley1945 3 месяца назад

      If your right then his numbers are off, slightly off, however. He contains so much historical facts that one might get some dates mixed up. With that being said he knows exactly what transpired chronically. History isnt just regurgitating dates, its what led up to each event, and he portrayed that perfectly.

    • @piketrekfsdf209
      @piketrekfsdf209 Месяц назад

      Inaccurate history. Brits didn't turn down Kaiser offer to avoid war, they weren't even part of an alliance w French or Russia. They later in surprise decided to come in. Kaiser at best wanted Serbia to apologize as nation and be humiliated. So, no, Brits didn't cause ww1. When Historian makes up history it's sad. And no, 1 unit of black soldiers is not 1 of the 2 reasons the Germans didn't take Paris late in war, Paris was not threatened and no one thinks the blacks changed history. Again, if this guy will lie it ruins trust in everything he claims. If it's not stated in fact in a book don't trust some speech by professor I guess.

    @perkeletto640 6 месяцев назад +3

    Small correction about Japan:
    Christianity was not seen as evil but seen as threat because unlike with shinto and buddhist faith, the boss would no longer be Daimyo, Shogun or Emperor but God and perhaps Pope in Europe. Very simimar situation than with Christians early in Roman Empire. Also it was seen as negative influence for warriors as christians would be afraid the desth more as nobody wants to go hell (Which is why introducing buddhism to Samurai class was a big thing earlier)
    Japan was not afraid of guns, but guns were essential to win a civil war, So Togukawa shogunate decided to ban guns from anybody else and restrict foreign trade (potential source of the guns). Thus making sure there would be no rebellions, This worked until Meiji restoration

      I have been reading history for 55 years. Never accept any historians take as the "real" history. As Napoleon said: "History is a set of lies agreed upon." I love this professors take on history. But you should read and listen critically. Never accept a narrative just because it is entertaining. But I do think this professor has a very interesting and unique take on history.

    What an astounding lecure that binds all these threads of history together. Each subject needs further reading and learning - obviously. But to assemble this greater picture - what an astonishing feat. Thank you! This reminds me of Hendrik Willem van Loon - he wrote about history before the 1st World War and found quite a unique voice of knowledge and fun doing it. History to enjoy, even if it is - and it is - horrible. Cheers*
