If anything, gunpowder was more effective in naval than land use in this period. One major problem with land use of gunpowder is that it is really, really hard to haul heavy cannon over the unpaved roads of the period. For example, to make the cannon that battered down the walls of Constantinople in 1453, a foundry was set up in the siege camp, and the cannon were cast right there. When cannon were hauled overland, large teams of (usually) oxen were needed to drag them over the low-quality unpaved roads. A good day would see only 15-20 km travelled with men and animals being dead tired at the end of the day. And if it rained and the roads turned to mud, forget it! On the other hand, ships are designed to carry large heavy objects such as cannon. With favorable winds, ships of this period can move 15 km PER HOUR. And do it 24 hours of the day. The same is true of ammunition in this period. It is much, much easier to transport it by sea than by land. I am an Army veteran. And one of our sayings is, "Amateurs talk about strategy. Professionals talk about logistics." In the period before 1750, the logistics of transporting a gunpowder army and its artillery by sea gave maritime empires an enormous advantage over land-based empires.
Hey Kevin, I agree with you on all counts. It’s during this period (starting 1450) that the power really began to shift to the nations who could handle the seas. Also, I love the amateur/professional quote. Can you say more about it? Seems like it could apply to more than just the military.
@@heimlershistory Sure! Professionals know that the two key factors in modern armed conflict are logistics and the will of the people to fight. For example, a one-sentence summary of WWI is, "The Royal Navy starved Germany into submission while an entire generation of European youth killed each other in futile land battles." In November 1918, the German army was undefeated and not a single Allied soldier had set foot on German soil. Yet the people were starving and knew that the Allied logistical superiority made military defeat inevitable. So they lost the will to resist, engaged in a revolution and overthrew the German government. It is possible to have brilliant strategy, win all of the battles, inflict massive losses upon the enemy, but still lose the war. For example, the US/Vietnam war. This was largely a logistics war. The USA sought to interdict supply lines, such as the Ho Chi Mihn Trail, and to use chemical defoliants such as Agent Orange to remove the capability of the jungle to supply a secure base area. The actual large-scale battles were all crushing American victories. A good example of this was the 1968 Tet Offensive. A massive US military victory. Although historians still debate the exact casualty ratio, it was roughly 10:1 in favor of the USA. And yet this decisive military victory was key to US defeat in Vietnam. The problem was, to quote LBJ, "The American people don't care about the 10, they care about the one." Strategic victory was turned into political defeat by loss of the will of the people to fight. The same can be said of the Soviet Union's military intervention in Afghanistan. WWII was also a logistical war for resources, with the #1 cause of German defeat being lack of oil.
My teacher puts these videos for us to watch, and they help a lot because in our school we have a lot of homework and these videos help a lot. We are starting Units 3.2, 3.3, 3.4.
Notes from the video+ the AMSCO AP World guide, we've got this guys Maritime empires grew due to factors not primarily relating to gunpowder like the land-based empires New ideas stemmed from Asian and Islamic ideas Ship building became easier because there were more accurate records of wind patterns and detailed astronomical charts lateen sail: triangular sail that could catch the wind on both sides of the ship some ships combined square and lateen sails, causing the ship to be able to travel far (caravel) most ships in this time were created in a way where they could be transformed into a warship when needed ships were very expensive to build & required large crews These ships included the: Caravel: Portuguese manufactured, spanish used, smaller ship for navigation Lateen sails (2-3) could still carry a lot of cargo. 15th-17th centuries Fluyt- Dutch, large and built exclusively for trade had large cargo bays, didn't need large crews, cost to build was 1/2 the cost as many ships @ this time 16th-17th centuries square, 2-3 masts Carack- portuguese, biggest, made for only trade Square and Lateen masts (3-4) 14th-17th Astrolabe: old sailors how far north or south they were from the equator Magnetic compass: told sailors which direction they were going in. Cartography- mapmaking, increased maritime navigation New Maritime Tech caused a rapid expansion of European trade Prince Henry the Navigator- financed Portuguese exploration that lead the European world out of Europe
my notes! maritime - related to the sea since muslims controlled most of the land and ports that pass through the trade routes, europeans had a difficue establishing trade on their own terms europeans wanted to know if there was another way to asia they inherited astrolabe, magnetic compass, lateen sail from the greeks, asians, and muslims. portugues: created caravel much smaller highly navigatable along coastlines and river fast because of combination of lateen and square sails can carry a lot of cargo dutch: fluyt exclusively for trade built with large cargo much smaller crews
Unit 4 is kind of a beast. I don’t think I have any particular advice for this unit that wouldn’t apply to any others. Make sure you know the main themes and get down a few specific vocab words to illustrate each theme. For example, the first topic is about technology that helped European exploration. A good illustration of that is the magnetic compass or the lateen sail. I’m not sure how good that advice is, but that’s what I’d do...
I have been following ur videos for the past few units and they have been on pace but this unit 4 doesn’t match up with my curriculum? We are currently doing the Atlantic slave trade , Colombian exchange, new world, etc so could u match up to those? also thanks for ur videos they a lifesaver
In the ultimate review packet, is there sections for each topic or just the units as a whole? I bought the packet and wanted to know so I'm not missing anything.
Hi Mr. Heimler I love your videos, and it really helps me prepare for a unit test. But is it info. if you want an A in the class. Should I read the textbook as well and maybe watch crash course. (im too lazy to read the textbook)
Glad you’re finding the video helpful. It’s hard to give the kind of advice you’re looking for, but honestly I’ve never heard of anyone getting an A in an AP class unless they cheated or worked very hard. And I’m not suggesting the former. I would say if you’re not interested in the hard work then just take the B or C in the class. Maybe it’s worth it if you get to do other things you love...
Question...my daughter bought your the noteguide package for your program. She said that Unit 4 did not match up with what her class was learning in Chapter 4. What text book is this based off of?
Just some term timestamps for studying

So glad to hear it. And thanks for letting me know where you are. It helps me keep pace...
Thank you soooo much. I have a test tomorrow, and this such a clutch.
Hope the test went well!
My teacher plays these video and my ap world class is so easy even though I'm bad at studying. Thanks legend!
Thanks so much, I always binge your videos before my tests and they always help! Thanks
binging these before my AP test
love you dude. so grateful for your timing w uploading and the way u present info
i sure having a mari-time with these explanation videos
Notes from the video+ the AMSCO AP World guide, we've got this guys
Maritime empires grew due to factors not primarily relating to gunpowder like the land-based empires
New ideas stemmed from Asian and Islamic ideas
Ship building became easier because there were more accurate records of wind patterns and detailed astronomical charts
lateen sail: triangular sail that could catch the wind on both sides of the ship
some ships combined square and lateen sails, causing the ship to be able to travel far (caravel)
most ships in this time were created in a way where they could be transformed into a warship when needed
ships were very expensive to build & required large crews
These ships included the:
Caravel: Portuguese manufactured, spanish used, smaller ship for navigation
Lateen sails (2-3)
could still carry a lot of cargo.
15th-17th centuries
Fluyt- Dutch, large and built exclusively for trade
had large cargo bays, didn't need large crews, cost to build was 1/2 the cost as many ships @ this time
16th-17th centuries
square, 2-3 masts
Carack- portuguese, biggest, made for only trade
Square and Lateen masts (3-4)
14th-17th
Astrolabe: old sailors how far north or south they were from the equator
Magnetic compass: told sailors which direction they were going in.
Cartography- mapmaking, increased maritime navigation
New Maritime Tech caused a rapid expansion of European trade
Prince Henry the Navigator- financed Portuguese exploration that lead the European world out of Europe
"You got a stew going baby." .......pretty sure only the teachers caught that one. Carl Weathers would be proud. You're the man sir.
Heimler is literally the goat
this is so much better than reading the bentley
this is like reading AMSCO with humor
Well, thank you...
You're a lifesaver. I have my unit exam today
Hope it goes well! Let me know how you did...
HOW DID YOU DO
I always see these comments talking about how youre a life saver
and god dang it you are
bruh you’re the only reason i keep getting A’s on my tests
I like how Heimler leaves an ellipsis every time he replies to comments... he tries to be spooky...
There’s always more to say................
my notes!
maritime - related to the sea
since muslims controlled most of the land and ports that pass through the trade routes, europeans had a difficue establishing trade on their own terms
europeans wanted to know if there was another way to asia
they inherited astrolabe, magnetic compass, lateen sail from the greeks, asians, and muslims.
portugues: created caravel
much smaller
highly navigatable along coastlines and river
fast because of combination of lateen and square sails
can carry a lot of cargo
dutch: fluyt
exclusively for trade
built with large cargo
much smaller crews
Imagine being people from four years ago and not having these videos.
You are like Crash Course but better 🙏
Aw thanks... that’s a huge compliment!

Hi Steve, keep up the good work. I am starting Unit 4 next week. Any advice on tackling this particular unit?
Unit 4 is kind of a beast. I don’t think I have any particular advice for this unit that wouldn’t apply to any others. Make sure you know the main themes and get down a few specific vocab words to illustrate each theme. For example, the first topic is about technology that helped European exploration. A good illustration of that is the magnetic compass or the lateen sail. I’m not sure how good that advice is, but that’s what I’d do...
