The men that burnt down the White House where not actually British they where born in Ontario Canada 🇨🇦 those men every single one of them where as Canadian as could be the British take credit because Technically Canada 🇨🇦 wasn’t a country yet and it was owned by the Queen of England but in reality the British did nothing to the White House and the British lost the last battle of the war of 1812 even tho they outnumbered Andrew Jackson and his men 5-1 they still lost and Andrew Jackson cut the heads off 4 British officers....
Gaius Julius Caesar Augustus Germanicus I think it has more to do with the repelling of the invasion of Canada than the strike on the US capital. Unless I am mistaken.
1,000 subscribers with a few videos the Americans where the key to the invasion of D-Day and sent more men than the British and Canadians and killed more Germans but yea
Probably because the British that were at Britain were still dealing with Napoleon at the time. Which was why only the British that was in Canada did the fighting in the War of 1812.
The Canadians had nothing to do with the burning of Washington. America tried to forcibly annex Canada, but it was British troops that burned Washington.
It ended because Napoleon was presenting a more terrible, troublesome threat that Britain realized it could not sustain fighting multiple wars on more than one continent.
The British were very busy at the time and the end of the war was aptly summed up with "Everybody's happy with the outcome of the war. Americans are happy because they think they won, the Canadians are happy because they know they won and avoided being swallowed up by the United States, and the British are happiest because they've forgotten all about it"
It's also worth noting that the US outlawed slavery in 1805. Britain 1833 or 37. Well after 1805 British had slaves working sugarcane in Jamaica and all the British isles in the Caribbean. Britain hides they're history, big time. Young idiots change real American history, yet Britain were the colonizers of helpless countries.
While slavery may have been abolished on the island the UK sits on, it certainly was not abolished on all the nations they invaded and annexed into the 'UK' and certainly was not in the nations they colonized (including, shocker of shockers here, the Americas). Not only was it not abolished but they enslaved people in many of these regions and they not only enslaved them but they made a huge business of taking them around in their ships and selling them all over the world.
Very sad indeed for this country that since 2016 when these cretins were brought out of their cocoons and given a voice by someone who had no business being a President. Same said people will keep worshipping and since 2020 there has been a divide not seen since the Civil War, only this time it is seemingly far worse and a more dangerous boiling pot. I pray America survives this horrific period in its history. Sad to think that our country's 250th anniversary is coming up close in 2026. :-(
I love history so much. I'm not sure what anyone elses take is when they see a video like this. But I always immerse myself into its story. Not with a view to any side, but the history from both sides, it all!💙
Buckingham Palace only became the monarch's residence in 1837 and was only expanded to its current grandiosity in early 1900s, so the invading soldiers probably weren't comparing the White House to it.
At least the brits had a reason. Americans didn't know how to make tea. They kept on insisting in pouring tea into the water and not the other way round. The brits were not going to stand for that insult.
To be clear, this was payback after the Americans had spent the previous years trying to invade & colonise Canada (including burning a number of key buildings in York). It was never meant to be an occupation, hence why they left within 24 hours. The whole thing was similar to the retaliatory burning of Persepolis by Alexander, as retaliation for the Persian burning of the Athenian Acropolis. Kudos to Dolley Madison, she had cojones to stay back and save items even after her husband had cut & run.
It happened again in 189 years later. A retaliatory attack for America’s constant hunger for invasions. America never learns. Still does it today. That’s what you get for being so eager to invade disguised as “liberation.”
They left Washington because a storm was threatening their ships, not fearing an American counter attack. The same storm brought rainfall which extinguished the fires
Right!! I am not understanding the misinfo in from CBS LOL! They didn't leave on a whim. That would make zero sense if they did actually. Their whole point was to literally occupying the our nation at this point!
@@metalnat27 the storm, no doubt, was part of it. But Winder's army WAS regrouping and Ross WAS fearful of a counter-attack to some degree. Otherwise, he might have well marched overland to Baltimore, which was considered.

@@TheIceman567 Imagine having a boxing match and winning. Only to have your opponent take the credit for Winning because he sees it in a different way. Well that's the same effect why Brits get annoyed when they see yanks like you saying things like that. You never defeated us, granted, you've had battles with some of us, but the USA has never defeated us because you have never faced us properly. Americans are like those little kids in school who go around thinking they can beat everyone up, only to get beat up them self. At least we don't have the reputation of "Starting wars, running scared, and begging UK to help".
@@JustAnOrdinarySimmer welp here comes the personal insults aww. First off when did the USA ask the UK for help? Not like in WW1 or WW2 when you needed us to finish what you started. Especially running away on the European continent and still call Dunkirk a victory? Best part is you never defeated the US either trust me Limeys like you do the same thing. What wars started and the USA ran scared? This I’m dying to know. I can quite a few the British ran away from. But yet the USA have a better ear record than the UK so in fact those kids in the school going around bogging themselves up I think you means that Britain 🤷♂️ I mean you. Puking even handle Napoleon alone. And you wanna talk?
@@JustAnOrdinarySimmer Yeah, I agree having a boxing match and one claims they won because they ran off the European continent like in 1940. Likewise you never defeated the USA. “Americans are like those on the school ground”? The USA has a much better war record than Britain. You limey’s make us laugh, I can name a few wars Britain started and ran away from, I mean you couldn’t even handle Napoleon alone. You list 5 out of the 7 Napoleonic wars almost losing at Waterloo if the Prussians didn’t show up, Wellington’s famous words “Give me night or give me Blucher.” Btw you also ran away in Afghanistan not only once. 🤷♂️
"Only the British": 1) Sit for tea and dinner in building, before burning it down 2) No looting! A gentleman never loots, before torching someones house 3) By crackie, is this yours? My family stole it from your family 100 years ago. Just thought I'd bring it by
America is so powerful that after getting independence from one of the strongest country on earth only decades later their capital is taken and they still manage to not lose the war and it becomes a draw.
America burning down the Canadian Parliment at York Britan burning down the White House *This was the best thing that happened! I remember it like it was yesterday, GOD SAVE THE KING!*
Now imagine 5 years ago if you had a dream that a president Donald Trump would be starting a trade war with Canada. You'd assume that you must've eaten an entire wheel of cheese before going to bed
tea time commenter look how that turned out in the 20’s. Every country retaliated with high tariffs and it did nothing but strain the international economic climate
The irony is the UK taught the US a valuable lesson...we would not be what we are today if we didn't wise up and realize that Europe and European colonization were a very real threat and we better start building a military that could hold it's own...100 years later EVERYONE in Europe knew that even the idea of attacking the US mainland was laughable...even the mighty British Empire knew it would probably lose Canada and it's entire Navy in the process...
2 things to note: It wasn't a massive war for Britain. Their focus was on the napoleonic wars. So yeah Americans should thank Britain because if they wanted we wouldn't have the USA that we have today
It wasn't really a massive war for the US either. The US sent a few thousand men into Canada, but that was about all. It was really a war about taking Canadian land, which the US did not have a realistic chance of succeeding in doing. The UK would've been hard-pressed as well to actually change any borders.
@@Jake-rs9nq you burned down canadian villages and got your capital burned your ports blockaded and had border conflicts lol imagine if it was a massive war then half of USA would be canadian nowadays, i love Americans logic, if we lost then it wasn't important, USA military story is pathetic and you must thank Britain for your "freedom" only reason Americans are still alive is because they are far from Europe and couldn't be conquered, struggled against the natives and the mexicans.
Americans: “yes the war of 1812, the second war of independence, the burning of Washington, the darkest day in the young nations history never to be forgotten” Britain: “that fire a few lads started while we were busy saving the world from Napoleon”
@@harveyholmes9533 dude Napoleon was first defeat in April of 1814 and sent to island of Elba. He escaped in February of 1815 and retaking power in France in March leading to the war of the seventh coalition. And the burning of Washington wasn’t a dark day at all. It had no significance in the war. Jesus study history much?

Just a footnote, when the Americans burned the government buildings in York, (now Toronto) Ontario in 1813, which is what led the to the burning of D.C., they engaged in full-scale looting as well. One of the purloined items was the Parliamentary Mace which was not returned to Canada until 1934, 121 years later!

Whilst the big boys Britain and France were fighting a real war, the USA came running in with a plastic gun - pew pew. "Just one moment Napoleon, my son got out of the crib."
They left a important part out as Washington burned later at night a fierce storm blew in. It put out the fires and the winds were so strong that cannons were moved. As a result the British forces were so battered it was decided to leave and cut short their travels.

I live close to the Harry S Truman Presidential Library. It has on display old wooden support beams from the East Room floor that are burned and scorched during the 1814 fire. (Apparently, when they rebuilt the White House they tried to salvage as much material as possible.) Under Truman, of course, the White House was completely gutted and remodeled. New steel beams were installed in the 1940's to keep the White House standing for another 200 years. Some of the workmen gave President Truman a few of the burnt beams as a gift to his museum. They're fascinating.

I watched this for a project. I just scroll down to the comments section... SOOOOOOOO much hate dude. Legit this comment section is freaking more hot than freaking WWII. Literally all I see is British people hating on America, or just saying "SUCK IT AMERICANS." I am just sitting there like "Boi."

What is never mentioned is that the burning of Washington was in revenge for the US burning Canadian property. It wasn't just a random thing.
I know this will sound like a lie but I promise it is 100% real.

Britain literally couldn’t care we were too busy fighting off the French while the yanks acted like this was a huge deal.
Yeah why you’re bum hurt about it in your comments 😂😂
@@TheIceman567 Imagine having a boxing match and winning. Only to have your opponent take the credit for Winning because he sees it in a different way. Well that's the same effect why Brits get annoyed when they see yanks like you saying things like that. You never defeated us, granted, you've had battles with some of us, but the USA has never defeated us because you have never faced us properly. Americans are like those little kids in school who go around thinking they can beat everyone up, only to get beat up them self. At least we don't have the reputation of "Starting wars, running scared, and begging UK to help".
@@JustAnOrdinarySimmer welp here comes the personal insults aww. First off when did the USA ask the UK for help? Not like in WW1 or WW2 when you needed us to finish what you started. Especially running away on the European continent and still call Dunkirk a victory? Best part is you never defeated the US either trust me Limeys like you do the same thing. What wars started and the USA ran scared? This I’m dying to know. I can quite a few the British ran away from. But yet the USA have a better ear record than the UK so in fact those kids in the school going around bogging themselves up I think you means that Britain 🤷♂️ I mean you. Puking even handle Napoleon alone. And you wanna talk?
@@JustAnOrdinarySimmer Yeah, I agree having a boxing match and one claims they won because they ran off the European continent like in 1940. Likewise you never defeated the USA. “Americans are like those on the school ground”? The USA has a much better war record than Britain. You limey’s make us laugh, I can name a few wars Britain started and ran away from, I mean you couldn’t even handle Napoleon alone. You list 5 out of the 7 Napoleonic wars almost losing at Waterloo if the Prussians didn’t show up, Wellington’s famous words “Give me night or give me Blucher.” Btw you also ran away in Afghanistan not only once. 🤷♂️
@@TheIceman567 actually it’s France then British then the us when we talk about battles/wars won
"Only the British":
1) Sit for tea and dinner in building, before burning it down
2) No looting! A gentleman never loots, before torching someones house
3) By crackie, is this yours? My family stole it from your family 100 years ago. Just thought I'd bring it by
America is so powerful that after getting independence from one of the strongest country on earth only decades later their capital is taken and they still manage to not lose the war and it becomes a draw.

Trumps trade war against Canada brought me here.
Now imagine 5 years ago if you had a dream that a president Donald Trump would be starting a trade war with Canada.
You'd assume that you must've eaten an entire wheel of cheese before going to bed
I was watching a video about James a Garfield who was president in 1881 - 1881.who was assassinated.
@NorCal OntheRight canada is the reason for a lot of our debt why would we not have a trade war with them
we need to make money
tea time commenter look how that turned out in the 20’s. Every country retaliated with high tariffs and it did nothing but strain the international economic climate
@@bensudol6411 Canada can't retaliate with high tariffs cuz their country's economy and military is dependant of USA.
in 2221, this video would be called "When the Americans attacked the White House"
Why so specific lmao?
Wtf are you talkin about we are the uk not a state of such a horrible country of America
nah we messed our chance to annex canada
The irony is the UK taught the US a valuable lesson...we would not be what we are today if we didn't wise up and realize that Europe and European colonization were a very real threat and we better start building a military that could hold it's own...100 years later EVERYONE in Europe knew that even the idea of attacking the US mainland was laughable...even the mighty British Empire knew it would probably lose Canada and it's entire Navy in the process...
To be fair you were born out of British colonization, The British and the Americans were basically the same people fighting family at the time.
@@jason-gf8dg Yeah it was a civil war between citizens of England vs the military and citizens of England.
2 things to note:
It wasn't a massive war for Britain.
Their focus was on the napoleonic wars.
So yeah Americans should thank Britain because if they wanted we wouldn't have the USA that we have today
It wasn't really a massive war for the US either. The US sent a few thousand men into Canada, but that was about all. It was really a war about taking Canadian land, which the US did not have a realistic chance of succeeding in doing. The UK would've been hard-pressed as well to actually change any borders.
@@Jake-rs9nq you burned down canadian villages and got your capital burned your ports blockaded and had border conflicts lol imagine if it was a massive war then half of USA would be canadian nowadays, i love Americans logic, if we lost then it wasn't important, USA military story is pathetic and you must thank Britain for your "freedom" only reason Americans are still alive is because they are far from Europe and couldn't be conquered, struggled against the natives and the mexicans.

Imp is mad.
Annnnnnnd it got breach again today but it’s own Americans 🤣🤣
Capitol is different from the white House
Not even the same building and nothing was burned not sure how its the same thing. That was a security failure more than anything
Only problem is calling it a second war of independence. It was a response to US attempts to take British territory (Canada)
Americans: “yes the war of 1812, the second war of independence, the burning of Washington, the darkest day in the young nations history never to be forgotten”
Britain: “that fire a few lads started while we were busy saving the world from Napoleon”
Napoleon was defeated by this time.
@@TheIceman567 the battle of Waterloo was 1815 the burning of the White House was 1814
@@harveyholmes9533 dude Napoleon was first defeat in April of 1814 and sent to island of Elba. He escaped in February of 1815 and retaking power in France in March leading to the war of the seventh coalition. And the burning of Washington wasn’t a dark day at all. It had no significance in the war. Jesus study history much?
@@TheIceman567 nah we all knew he’d get back from Elba just wanted the chance to beat him twice

In 200 years I wonder what they will say about the Siege of 2021...
Just a footnote, when the Americans burned the government buildings in York, (now Toronto) Ontario in 1813, which is what led the to the burning of D.C., they engaged in full-scale looting as well. One of the purloined items was the Parliamentary Mace which was not returned to Canada until 1934, 121 years later!
there still have not been some things returned to the Us
We should have kept it
Those slaves who joined the. BRITISH

The Americans and Canadians: arguing about who won
The Brits: 👁👄👁🍵 “there was another war during the napoleonic war?”
to us it was considered less important than the occupation of the french islands in the Mediterranean
Ironic that Trump supporters were plotting the same thing..
The reason they done this was necause the americans a while before had burnt down the capital of British Canada

I am just seeing what mee cousin Major General Robert Ross did, and how much they will admit to, generally the glaze right over Ross, and intentionally don't mention us. If they did they would find so much of their History us, and it pisses them off so they just skip right over who did...
I am bored listening to people calling it a coup , it was a very violent protest that costed the lives of 5 people from both sides . However not even close to a coup , in order to be a coup military needs to be involved not the national guard

Whilst the big boys Britain and France were fighting a real war, the USA came running in with a plastic gun - pew pew. "Just one moment Napoleon, my son got out of the crib."
Hardly.....
They left a important part out as Washington burned later at night a fierce storm blew in. It put out the fires and the winds were so strong that cannons were moved. As a result the British forces were so battered it was decided to leave and cut short their travels.
Vengeance & retaliation are always sweet.

I live close to the Harry S Truman Presidential Library. It has on display old wooden support beams from the East Room floor that are burned and scorched during the 1814 fire. (Apparently, when they rebuilt the White House they tried to salvage as much material as possible.) Under Truman, of course, the White House was completely gutted and remodeled. New steel beams were installed in the 1940's to keep the White House standing for another 200 years. Some of the workmen gave President Truman a few of the burnt beams as a gift to his museum. They're fascinating.
And to think, the only reason this wasn’t repeated 187 years later was because a plane was 45 minutes late.
Damn. History really would've repeated itself if that happened.
I doubt they could hit it. Too low.
In fairness, they should have pointed out that Americans had burned Canadian government buildings first.
