There is no other channel on YT with this superb quality when it comes to accurate history documentaries. StarMedia is a gem and i fear the censors will take it down as they did with RT and others.
All this time I thought the pre-HIndenburg dirigibles of WW l were very small until I saw this episode and found out that they were actually larger than the largest aircraft today. Incredible!
Бельгийцы красавчики, однозначно!!! Как им геноцид не устроили??? При таких силах принять вызов... Серия убойная!!! Первая как бы вводная, и тут такой сюрприз!!! Кстати, про перемирие на рождество недавно неплохой художественный фильм видел, даже ранее не знал, что такое возможно.
The second episode is less accurate than the first and.. no seriously from an historical point of wie and "legends" as the history that taxi cabs saved Paris. Gallieni was the commander of the place of Paris, he realized after air and cavallery recognition that the first german army switched est of Paris to pursuit the British arm.y and the french in retrait. The capture of german documents from the vallet of a dead officier, simply confirm his idea to attack the flank of the first german Army...Due his insistence Joffre gave to Manoury's sixth to attack, It is true that colonial troupes arrived in line at the right time and gave their contibution, but the factors that decided the Strategical victory of the Marna battle ( strategical because it saved the allies, but not tactical, and that unfortunatly dind'nt stop the war): The tropupes sent to the front with taxies weren't colonials and not so decisive in number...That's a very bad way to make documentary!
That is indeed a caricature of what happened at the Marne battle, that is the weakness of this otherwise entertaining documentary, it is a bit biased against France even though it shouldered most of the war effort in the West especially during the first 2 years before the British and Commonwealth armies arrived in large numbers, consented the largest sacrifice in men and equipment and won most notable allied battle victories in the west albeit most of them being pyrrhic victories against a superior army in terms of size, amount of artillery pieces, logistics and ammunitions supplies. I did not yet watch episode 3 and onwards but it also seem to me that the battle around Lodz was quite a success for the Germans that is downplayed in this documentary. This said it is still interesting to watch another point of view even if it is somewhat lacking in accuracy for the western front. To be fair though, our western documentaries are also often simplifying and barely covering what actually happened on the Eastern front as well.
There’s a micronation called “imperial throne” or “Romanov empire” where a Russian guy got a German prince related to the Romanov to claim for the throne as Nicholas III, and last I heard he was close to getting land and be recognized as a sovereign state, and create a government in exile.
Dislike for not acknowledging the Sikh British Indian Army soldiers who's sacrifice was so great that the Britches constructed a huge monument in New Delhi called India Gate.
They are filed under "British Empire". Every civilization or Nation on this planet has built a Monument or Memorial for their Armed Forces and their Sacrifices.
Although the show tries to remain accurate, most of the time it shows its true allegiance by entirely putting the blame of the war on all the countries, except Russia. The truth wasn't as simple as that. Moreover, it depicts France and Britain as entirely dependent on the efforts of Russia, the same spurious claims having been made during WW2. The documentary is good and entertaining, but its pro-russia propagandistic remarks make it very hard to see it as a proper historical documentary
A lot of mistakes, too. Alsace-Lorraine was and is 80% german speaking. The fighting in Lorraine was very few in the Ardennes Forest but in the Argonne Forest.

One series similar to this about Russian civil war, and other about October revolution could be great!
+FelixDzerzhinsky yup that would be ace
+FelixDzerzhinsky Yeah!

natureman494 i still live in the revolutionary hearts
thats some deep shit right there
StarMediaEN can u uplaod the Soundtracks of this documentary pls? Like in Soviet Storm ?
I agree the Christmas truce of 1914 was different but it was an honest attempt to show how an event can change people even for one day
Great Stuff! Thanks.

wish this was like soviet front yes Russian but English speaking and sub titles
how to declare a cease fire...... BOOZE!!!!!!
Joseph Joffre declared that the word "retreat" should be crossed out of the French vocabulary. Then how would they describe World War 2 and Vietnam?
Ww2 is surrender,not retreat!
The Christmas truce .such a sad moment
My uncle William died in the First, unlike millions of others his grave is in Frace where w can visit.

Dubious figures on French numbers as well. Plus they really skipped over the disaster that was Tannenberg. Hmmmm

Poor subtitle which can seize at any time. Nonsense
12:50 french soldiers in 1914 using kar98ks, interesting
I am pretty sure that the battle of Lodz did not went all that well for the russians. I hope that this was a honest mistake.
It was Inconclusive and yes the Russians suffered massive Causalties but the Germans did too.
Why do the Germans and English have Russian accents?
no, do not russian accent
48:28
Russian army with an American revele?????
Oh don't worry the Russian Empire will Rise again ;)
Dmitriy Turko The Romanov are dead right?
Dmitriy Turko Yr Chinese brother will be on your side

Best stick to the Hollywood propaganda machine, then.

@@blackrabbit212 such as?
This is Russian propaganda.
