Did you know the Australians and Emus are technically still at war as no peace treaty was ever signed?
Yeah, when confronted about signing a truce, the Emu delegation just...... y'know.... "pissed off" and left. :)
General James Ironwood
How is negotiations with the other kingdoms going? Atlas is becoming increasing militant.
Ivan Lee It's becoming no more militant than it already was to begin with, my friend.
Diogo Neno A proud Aussie would only accept an unconditional surrender
And so the people of Australia live in a constant threat that Emus might return someday.
Fun fact: this is known in the emu community as "the war of Australian aggression"
I thought it was called the “Australian Civil War”
They wiped the floor with them Aussies.
if it wasn't for our brave military we would be speaking Emu this day
emeQve lmao
*Brave farmers and veterans.
The active military didn't do shit.
comrades EMU's the time to take back austrlia is nigh!
emeQve kakkak
THE AT-ST! IT'S A MECH EMU!!
>not talking about the part the emus attacked Canberra and sacked it to the ground, then installed their puppet regime in Australia
You're missing the best parts
Their regime lasted long and hurt some many innocent people :(
France Glorieuse my grandparents told me about those days and rod hull.
Not to mention Meriderth's personal duel with the Emu Tribal Chief
As a Canberran I can say that is false. The emu regime does not control us. I will NOT be executed by emu warlords should I speak out of line. Thank you for your time and please fucking help they're gonna kill me
He forgot about the Great Cassowary Coup!
To this day, Human-Emu relations are uneasy to say the least.
Avacado's Constant There's fears over a Emu uprising
What did you expect ? The White men still haven't paid reparation to the emus.
Yeah you keep hitting the buggers in the Adelaide Barossa Valley ... And my forefathers thought that moving to Australia from Russia was a good idea.
Avacado's Constant we humans need to kill all the emu overlords and bring them democracy. these emus have ruled over our farming land for to long!!!!
Joe Black just try. The Emu Lordship hasn't delivered a good ass whipping in decades
Soldier:The Negotiating Table is right over there sir.
Emu: We will accept nothing but unconditional surrender.
Ianmu Paisley 1930
Australia is the only country to have gone to war with a bird and lost. In fact, I'm pretty sure it's the only country to have gone to war with a bird at all. In fact, the war is technically still happening because a peace treaty was never signed. Never forget.
Lest we forget. The brave men who went to war with the emus.
Flesh Maze Tango
I mean, Mao tried to have Sparrows exterminated. Does that count?
lt is not counting
we sad for fun and also you want to stop emus destroying crops but emus still destroy lt and this is means technical emu victory but in second war humans win the battle
I think the sparrow extermination thing counts. it was literately called war of the four pests. china lost against flies, rats, sparrows, and something else. it definitely counts.
war of the four pests. WAR.
It'd be hilarious if a bunch of Australians somehow sided with the emus
Some of them did, as the vid above showed. They're called Wankers.
#EmuLivesMatter
We call them Wankers
And that is how New Zealand came to be. Or something.
@@lucialuppi5402The Kiwis are basicaly a puppet regime in a satelite state installed by the Emu Leaders in order to stabilize their far-flung teritories.
The day Emus resisted the Aussie occupation
Stannis The Mannis Baratheon 2 November...Never forget!
hows about that head stannis you found it yet?
It's funny how emus did a better job at defending their homeland than the actual native aboriginals
They should've brought 20 good men
WHO WOULD WIN?
The Aussie army with modern machine guns
or...
Some birdie bois
This would make a great comedy movie.
Starring Adam Sandler and Directed by Michael Bay
Written by George Lucas.
Darth Drake Soundtrack by Weird Al!
If only it was true comedy.
Go check out Mechanic Shark Channel’s Emu War The Movie. It’s art
The emus actually took out a vehicle when one of them died and their corpse got caught in the wheels
Anti vehicle bird mines.
Kamikaze birds. He took one for the team
Such heroic deed
He was using his super
those are some real kamikaze tacticts
they're just so damned lucky the soviets didn't give the emus military aid...
Shit just got real.
Everyone's a gangsta until the emus threaten you with weapons of mass distruction
Egg bombardment.
Another reason why the Emus were so hard to kill is because they are living tanks; they could take more bullets than any human could before passing out.
Unless you bring in the A10 that jet would kill thousands of those emus with it’s massive gun
And when they see who doing it they come like bulls
@@jonathangh0st567 the a10 would explode in the sky on its own because it's a piece of junk
Meanwhile in New Zealand, were going on an adventure to go kill Sauron!
New Zealand wasn't drowned deep into the ocean?
thats a good one
Whatcha gonna do after yous all kill him? Go back to screwing your sheep?
youre mistaking new zealand for wales
What the fuck is up with Australia and New Zealand? Whatever you guys are drinking or smoking give me some.
Imagine a communist emu dictatorship in Australia
That Would be interesting
Orbis buy a Paradox game, preferably hoi4 and create a mod for it.
it already happened. it still governs our country today but we call them politicians and they're disguised as humans
Muh "actual communism has never been attempted"
Would be true ally of mine
As an Australian, thank you. Some of my family's friends own Emus. And trust me they are actually fast runners. They often run straight at you at full speed and then halt at the last moment. And remember these birds are taller than yourself. And these emus don't really like dogs either. Once my friends dog had its head stomped in by one of the emus. But don't worry we will get em one day mate!
Let's just be glad that those emus are stuck on an island.
Zedphyr unless we iñegally import them
emu refugees
Continent
Sorry my friend, i've seen the hellions in the U.S. with my own eyes.
Logan Hamby we've got to build a wall around Australia and we'll make the -Kiwi- Emus pay for it!
Gallipoli flashbacks? nah, I've got Emu war flashbacks!
But no one died, except the emus
Those brave men had to have their dignity amputated!
x D
The Emu War, aka the day Australia should have just stayed home.
How did anyone manage to keep a straight face through this thing?
I hope to christ they make a comedy movie about this where it’s still filmed like an actual war movie
all I can see is some dramatic last stand like 300 someone shouting hold the line has millions of emu's run towards them
Chris D yes when I heard that they lost a “war” I cracked up laughing
And don't forget the emus' "little allies", the rabbits - shades of Monty Python and the Holy Grail!
Australian propaganda. Stay strong my emu friends.
Oh my lord your username.

>emu war stars
So the aussies went to war against birds and failed to win
You forget, these are AUSTRALIAN birds.
Those farmers were ex-soldiers tho.
Olle Hedin They lost the hot war, but they incited a guerilla war against the Emu occupation and decimated the Emu forces
Olle Hedin to be fair,m57,000 dead with 0 casualties isn't to bad of an effort
Well guerrilla warfare is very difficult.
3:58 "Emu Jima"
I was in that war.......the things I saw...
Release the Kraken! tell me daddy
Nomen Est Omen so many sleepless nights.....
I was part of the French expeditionary force helping out with the defense of Sydney. And then the birds assaulted the city in multiple directions. These bastards were elites and we stood no chance against them. First my best friend Stout was captured, then my brother got killed when we were retreating. We took heavy losses falling back every minute until what remains of the Australian Army, British, and French expeditionary force were in the Sydney Oppera building waiting to die. At this point only 200 of the 450,000 allied soldiers remained. Then the Second Australian Army caught the emus off guard and annihalated then within 2 days. We survived at what cost. Never forget
The inconceivable amount of laughter, razzing, and cussing. Would make an irish priest blush
CBC buboc buboc raac
(Me to it was horroR
Sorry English isnt
my native language
Emu is)
Thank god Australia didn't go with the Cassowary wars they would of had many casualties... Cassowary is the Emu's fuking crazy cousin...
theyre basically the emus edgy emo cousin that knows how to karate kick someone to death
Ian Farr-Wharton cassowaries are fat fat worse than emus
Cassowaries is even deadly than emus since they really like attack when provoke and their fight kinda like how Chicken fight agains one another using their sharp talon. I heard there is human fatal encounter with cassowary.
Yes, cassowaries have been known to kill people. I remember seeing a picture of someone who took a cassowary kick to the chest and it left permanent, highly visible damage to the rib cage and chest.
roguishpaladin ouch~
I can't believe you don't have a million subs
your content is great,educative and entertaining
only been going a couple months, but I totally agree
Sam Jones His art style is incredibly beautiful, he's pretty clever and definitely knows his stuff. Also the sheer consistency of quality in his content, it's all great
Andres Valle yep
As long as he keeps this up, I say he's at a million by June 2018, maybe 500k by the end of the year. he could accelerate that if he gets recognition by one of the larger youtubers in his category though.
Man I hope so, these videos are dope and I want more... plus free kudos for us being on the ground floor of this
Emu would have taken over the world if the Australians didn't try to stop them. You heard it first here.
The heck are you doing here, Joseph?
Germanyball: "Don't being sad, Australien! Ich also of had problems with pests many years ago!"
Emus can take over there a town in no where were emus made every move
The strategic bombing of emu civilian population centers was brutal but necessary.
TheForsakenEagle you shall pay for it, bastards!
The defeat of Australia at the "hands" of the Emus was so thorough that the surrender terms included permanently emblazzing an emu in the Coat of Arms of Australia.
That's why Aussies are still very salty about the Emus to this day, while the Emus just don't give a single fuck and are pretty cool guys.
"Emu" should be a secret faction in a Civ / Age of Empires / Rise of Nations games
The Emu War, the true forgotten war not the Korea War.
r/Emuwarflashbacks
schwarz hund Hi there. Thanks for sharing the word
Fucking speed chickens
Emu ptuw (post traumatic unessesary war) lmao
Meredith: "If we had a military division with the bullet-carrying capacity of these birds it would face any army in the world... They can face machine guns with the invulnerability of tanks. They are like Zulus whom even dum-dum bullets could not stop".
I for one, welcome out Super-Soldier-Emu Battalion with full gusto, and would humbly raise my hand to be an Emu-Pilot when the time comes to engage our enemies.
They will accompany our other specialist units - the Crocodile-Marines Corp, the Camel Gunners, the Kangaroo Brawler Units and Drop Bear Guerillas.
Don't forget the famed Bunny sappers of the engineering corps.
in Australia BIRDS shoot you💪
Correct me if I'm wrong as I'm just a dumb Yank, but didn't the Japanese try to land in Australia in WW2 but were attacked by crocodiles and left? Or something like that.
DoesNotExist305 The crocks were defending
Michael Enquist yes that’s the one I was thinking of! Turns out it was in Burma, not Australia. But that’s the one
We can fight Japanese but no Emus.
You've done the Emu War...
Now it's time for the Cod War
(Google it 😂)
Satans Hell Hound +1 This! fuck those Icelandic bastards!
NO, don't waste your time and film making skills on small, stupid local wars...
1984 is not a handbook that's sounds horrendous 😂
Satans Hell Hound Why though? Even the emu war is better than some Icelandic assholes ramming military warships and shitting themselves considering those on the ship might fight back.
Shitting ourselves? Mate, we fucking won that shit.

>Lewis Gun
>image of MG team is using a Benet-Mercie.
Stephen mc I was triggered too
hehehe... triggered... oh you.
This caught my attention as well, but I decided to let it go in light of the subject matter.
Never forget the great battle of Farmingrad.
Leave it to the Aussies to wage a war against birds and lose.
It would have been ridiculous if they actually did lose someone while fighting the emus.
Now instead of ww2 and vietnam flash backs we will have emu flashbacks
I don't want to go to the zoo =(
Are you sure Perth isn't there
We survived the Great War, but we couldn't kill a few flightless birds?
Nasty buggers.
They couldnt survive the turks in galippoli
@@CT--gs1wj it wasn't their war.Bastard british government forced them to fight
@@rodrikforrester9343 They aren't technically forced when many Australians at that time were enthusiastic to join the fight at the outbreak of the 1st World War. War Support dropped only after the Gallipoli campaign fiasco.
To their credit they should have stuck around longer.
Remove Emu
Australia stronk
Hahaha fucking brilliant
Man I gotta say, i watch a lot of different history stuff on youtube but your animation and storytelling style really sets you apart. Keep making awesome videos.
HOW BOUT' THE YUGOSLAV WAR! *here come the nationalists!*
Nice one, Serbia - "Hey, Croatia why do you have an umbrella?" Croatia - "Well, Serbia, did you hear that the *Storm* is coming?" *Ba dum tss*
Denmark is Serbia
Олег Хайнс Everybody know that Paraguay was unlawfully stolen from Croatia
Just a Potato England is Kosovo
FYI i am from an Ex - Yugoslav Republic, named Croatia. Also, look at the Americans, their arguing how many genders there are. And i get that sarcasm...
As an Australian I apologise for the Genocide of the Emu's, oh and aboriginals, Long live Australia! 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺 😁
Daniel fuck the emu's
Useless penal colony.
*grabs popcorn*
everyone gets a bit of genocide from time to time, you just gotta deal with it
What is a aboriginals Some kind of bird aswell?
dmitri Alexandrov they are as dumb as birds
I'd never heard of your channel until 15 minutes ago, when another RUclipsr I follow (today I found out) did a episode on this exact subject. This video came up as a suggestion on the right hand panel. And I clicked on it. I had to rewind it a couple of times, as I was laughing constantly throughout the entire thing. You've earned another subscriber and I hope to see more soon!
Dude your awesome, I've been watching your videos non stop since I discovered them three days ago.
Germany started the emu war!
DO THE EMU WAR, LMAOOOO00!!!!!111
Go commit ROBLOX O O F
Thank you so very damn much for making this completely unfiltered!!! This is awesome!
Meanwhile in New Zealand... WE DECLARE WAR ON KIWIS!
Gam3r DJM B-but we are the kiwis..
@@markos9531 It's called a civil war
Would the Afghan- Soviet of 1979/1989 war be an subject for a future video?
Secretly the Koalas and Kangaroos were tired of the Emus ruling Australia and rebelled. Now Kangaroos and Koalas were ruling Australia
First of your vids I've watched, subscribed on this alone. Genius.
I've heard of the Emu War before, never knew what it was until now. Thanks for uploading!
Soviet Afghan war?
"great emu war, when human players wanted to ban all emu players out of australian server"-TierZoo
Damn the quality of your videos sure is fantastic. 43K isn't even close you how many subscribers you deserve man!
Love your content, I just binged all your vids :) Keep up the good work!
they say criminals return to the scene of their crime that why they there are some many Aussies in the uk - Milton Jones
Carl Elias gg well played
4:20 You shall ride eternal: Shiny, and chrome!
Hahaha don't reckon i ever laughted this much watching an history channel on RUclips. Thanks for that, love your videos.
These are really, really good and I hope to see more.
they should've hired Crocodile Dundee
So the first war declared by humanity against another race/species...
We lost!!
Won, thanks to bounty hunters.
I have never heard of this event or at least vagely. It is incredible to believe. You got yourself one more subscriber!
random soldier: " SIr! the Emu has us surrounded by the thousands"
random general: " they would make nice hats and boots wouldn't they?"
Can you do something about the War of the Pacific (1879-1883)? Not a lot of people now about this war.
AirShark95 eh po toy hablando chilean wena como eta wea
Peruvians are still salty over the War of the Pacific, but I'm still salty over the emus. Context guys!
didn't he already do the Japanese--American War of the Pacific in his WW2 series?
@@cazique I think he means the war between chile, bolivia and peru
Now this is shitposting
Kuin this content is great
Who cares? It's funny as hell.
It's so hard to believe that the actual war was on emus. It's so laughable almost like a Looney Toon cartoon on how absurd. In all honesty I think someone should make a Warner Brothers animation Style making fun of the great emu War
Love your Channel!
Love this video really helped me with my history homework😀💕
to make my fellow Aussies feel better, don't worry because a couple states in Italy had a war over a bucket
Danielle Eagles if started looking in to it you probably finde out a lot of wars has been started over so stupid shit
Danielle Eagles Your comment a year ago made me go down a Wikipedia rabbit hole. The war of the bucket, both funny and fascinating!
Has anyone made a movie about this? It sounds like it would be hilarious to watch.
It would be awesome if you did a video on the first and second English Civil Wars. Love your content!
Im actually gonna do my English oral exam about the emu war, inspired by this video.
Great video and greetings from the Netherlands!
Is the Beaver Wars next? (and yeah, this one is an actual war)
so the Australian military couldn't kill a bunch of birds. how embarrassing
Wasn't the military. It was like 10 veterans from the middle of the desert.
any other military couldn't set up a fucking tent in Australia without being fucking killed to death.
+Nerdy Nachos "Killed to death" Fuck yeah mate!
Those birds are vicious, emotionless Ninjas, mate. We should be glad they didn't wipe out the entirety of the Australian Nation.
1 officer and 2 gunners.
I don't think I can watch this one... truly shows the hell of war and how bloody battles can get...
Very interesting to hear your Australian WWI poem of remembrance, we have one too here in Canada: In Flanders Fields. Lest we forget.
Please do the 2nd russian pacific fleet travel to Tsushima. They were so brilliant, they confused the gamecock fleet with japanese ships and shot at them.
neeh, the russians knew the british supported the japanese back then. The gamecock fleet were spy ships , perhaps one or two having hidden guns on deck.
Privateering was invented under the english... so never trust an english ship..
Except that's not why they shot at them...Admiral Rozhestvensky genuinely thought that they were Japanese Gunboats because y'know torpedo boats in the north sea thousands of miles outside of their operating range seems legit.
Well actually no. He isn't the one who gave the order to shoot. Actually, no one really did. The russians paid spies to check if any japanese torpedo boat where hidden, since due to the influence of the french "jeune école", everyone was paranoid about these ships. So these spies where paid to give reports, so they gave the russian HQ lots and lots of invented reports, leading to the russians being even more paranoid (plus the japanese were a tougher ennemy than what they thought to be initially). Now it doesn't stop here, since this 2nd Pacific fleet was manned by inexperienced (euphemism) soldiers. So
when the russians reached the dogger bank and encoutered the gamecock fleet (at night) they believed it was a surprise attack from the japanese. So the russian fleet begins to shoot with their seondary armament on the poor fishermen. Since the russians were so inexperienced, they also shot at their own ships, while the battleship Borodino shot once with his main artillery, making the crew from the Orel to believe that he blew up.
You know what's the worst thing about this? The russians believed that they had countered a powerful japanese fleet, and moral grew exponentialy, believing that the fishermen shouldn't have been there in the first place, while the impacts on the Aurora battleship was considered as a good omen, meaning that the crew were beginning to aim well, wich is a fucking stupid remark, since all in all, only one british ship was sunk, killing two, despite the whole of the fleet firing at them.
And trawlers traditionally don't have good armour either
Do the Emu war LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!
You're a fucking legend. For the past 3 nights I've been binge watching anything of yours that's in the suggested. I finally stumbled across this beauty. A bloody ripper of a video. Ofcourse I'm an expert on Genghis Khan now thanks to you. Keep it up you legend.
First off you're a deadset legend mate. Secondly you're doing a great job .
*PLAY OF THE GAME*
Anonymous killing a number
Could you please cover the Russian Civil war and the ensuing war which took place until Stalin cemented his rule? I've never been very clear on the exact happenings.
you bloody legend!!! rippa of a video mate well done very funny and great graphics hahaha
Love the last post salute in the end
Boardwalk burgers, more like bored burgers!
Brave Little Toaster cause the burgers aren't having any fun!
We were driving down I4 which is a road in Florida and I saw a sign for a restaurant called Boardwalk Burgers, Boardwalk City Burgers, and it was y'know just the standard restaurant y'know they had some homeless people throw some burgers on the George Foremans and I come up with a real zinger, a real fuckin humdinger, Sean. I'll tell you. It's one of the best things I've ever said in my life. So, I saw this, and I said "Boardwalk Burger? More like bored burger, because the burgers aren't having any fun.
this should be a copypasta
Imagine the emu war has started right now, that will be awesome.
Lad, need more frequent videos. Loved the videos.
FINALLY! A straightforward explanation, thank you! Much Love from Los Angeles 😃
War never change...

*Finds this in recommended section* CRIKEY!
Arrrggghhh mate...26th is straya day
RUclips doesn't like to show my timezone, so just pretend it says 26th.
This kept appearing on my feed for weeks. Didn't watch until I was good and drunk on a random night. 5/7 perfect would drunk watch again.
most funny video about the Emu war I've seen. Though most of them are pretty hilarious due to the subject at hand.
Wait wait wait, this really hapend?
Yep
I'm afraid it did.
what about the emu generals? the emu's tactics? you only cared about the austrailian point of view.
First of all fucking spell Australia right, and second it wouldn't take a genius to know what tactics the Emu's did.
Brilliant tribute at the end m8.
