This is why we love RUclipsrs like you. Not necessarily because of style or information, but for variety in content! Thank you, Rewriting History for this great video!
awesome video only thing i noticed is that you didnt include the invasion of cyprus in 1974 or any middle eatsern conflicts in syria and iraq. still you put a huge amount of effort sick video
Thank you so much for this. This will be very useful because I like to draw maps from very specific and random years and sometimes I just can't find a map for it.
Wasn't a big fan of it switching from de facto (400 BC to 1945) and then being de jure from then on. I think you should of added unrecognized states like Transnistria, Abkhazia, etc. There were also a tonne of breakaway states that existed for only a few months after the Soviet Union collapsed, like Crimea, Karelia and many Caucasian republics that joined Russia.
i think those were just because theyre small, because they also included crimea for russia after 2014 and kosovo, neither of which have a majority international recognition afaik
Hey man, great job! Personally I didn’t really like the music tho, it felt like in de first couple minutes there were multiple songs playing through each other, but maybe that’s just me 😅
This was just one song, that is how it sounds. I agree with you, not my typical music, but recently I have gotten 3 videos demonetized due to music, so I used the RUclips library
@@rewriting-history They are in fact very small, and I only saw them because I like to spot errors haha! But for an example Swedish Pomerania is not shown here. Sweden also did not own Blekinge during the time period it is shown in the video, 1123 etc. Gotland was not fully swedish until 1645. These were some which i noticed, I can of course let you know about more errors, but atm I don't have any time.

Чё то Кавказ рано присоединили к России. По этой карте его полностью зарисовали российской империи в 1800 году, а в реальности его оккупировали полностью только в 1864 году, то есть ошиблись почти на век, и в принципе много географических и исторических ошибок по Кавказу.
Nitpick Umayyads were overthrown in 750 (That's why Còrdoba/Qurtubah exists, one Umayyad escaped and started ruling Iberia after the Abbasids came to power in the rest.)
@@rewriting-history in short, it kept showing the caliphate as "Umayyad" instead of "Abbasid" after 750, despite that the Abbasids were in charge after 750. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caliphate_of_Córdoba#Rise en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abbasid_Caliphate#Abbasid_Revolution_(750-751) Wikipedia explains it better than I do.
what if crassus won against Parthia, with him and Publius being named Parthicus and the civil war went 3 ways with Caesar still possibly being assassinated leading to another 4 way civil war with Publius and Licinius JR starting their part of the war in Persia
The video was great and interesting to watch but I would have preferred if there was a legend on the side with the colors and what they meant because at some points it was kind of confusing to follow along when some of the groups spread around the mediteranian
@@rewriting-history Actually russians call it Rus because they don't want to accept the fact that Ukraine has the same capital and symbol. A lot countries call it Rus too but the real name is Kievan Rus. Rus is the region in Europe, Kievan Rus is the country
Why is the Kalmar Union the color of Sweden? It united under the Danish throne, and it was Sweden that continuously left it over and over again. Until 1520 when Denmark conquered them once and for all. And with that I mean immediately after that there was a 3 long civil war and in 1524 Sweden gained their independence from Denmark, never to lose it again, The North Sea Empire was also completely under Denmark. Otherwise, holy shit nice fucking video, you've done your research holy shit... I've been making my own maps and its difficult man, how did you survive this?
I'm very well aware that Denmark united the Kalmar Union. I'm making a video on it right now. The reason I chose the Swedish color is because it looked better in many ways. Sweden was even the more powerful within the union. This is the reason why I decided over the Swedish color, they simply were more relevant. Austria-Hungary is the Austrian color, despite Hungary having more land. The reason is because Austria was the more powerful monarchy.
@@rewriting-history what? I get that blue represents the color of cold, but your reasoning is that Sweden was the most powerful part of the Kalmar Union? Then how come they kept getting conquered? Denmark was by far the most powerful part of it. And another reason why you made Austria-Hungary the color of Austria, is because Hungary was barely more than an autonomous region within the Austrian Empire. Just like Sweden and Norway were autonomous regions within Denmark. But despite my criticism, I've got to say... You did an awesome job, keep going at it!
