    Managed to mispronounce Schörner differently every time I said it lmao. Has to be a new record of some kind.
    Next video is (theoretically) Albert Göring so just mentally prepare for more. Also as I said in the video, I swear I will get to anything that is requested eventually. I do actually write everything down, so just give it some time. Y'all have a good one.

      Looks like we’re playing with the big boys now, but seriously I can’t imagine the migraine you’ll have when dealing with the other himmler and heydrinch especially himmler, but wonder if you’ll do someone actually wholesome like sablin.

    • @Spartan761
      @Spartan761  2 года назад +2

      I mean, Albert is pretty wholesome. Won't rule out Sablin but he would be pretty short (he was executed at the ripe old age of 37) so I might bundle him in with a couple of other notable communists (maybe Kaganovich, Yezhov, Gastev, Zhdanov, etc.)

    Vidkun Quisling is my suggestion for a guy to cover. What makes him interesting is how out of left field (kind of) his far-right political career came. Among other things Quisling: To this day holds the highest examination score as an officer cadet, was Fridtjoff Nansens second in command during his humanitarian aid and international visa help to Armenia and Ukraine, and had his own personal religion which he called "universalism"-

A sort of speed round video where you cover a bunch of “wacky” individuals from the funny map game who are I treating read about, but don’t have a lot about them to discuss. Basically just a quick video to cover some people who don’t have enough content to make full videos out of them.
