No matter what your opinion of England, we should all agree that the British Empire era of the late 16th and early 17th centuries, at its height in the 19th and very early 20th centuries, was the largest empire in history, and, for a century, was the foremost global power, should be admired by friend and foe alike.

Very good insight into how the British got involved in Sudan. Your series on the British involvement there are very good and well done.

Excellent as usual Chris, I especially like the use of old photographs. I'm Irish and was in London at the weekend & really got a feel for British history, with statues and buildings, wondering what London must have looked like in Victorian times. Thankfully relations between Ireland and Britain have improved enormously with the white hot tip of history having cooled a lot which allows for greater objectivity in relations. I toured the Palace of Westminster and walked Horse Guards Parade and found it all very interesting. Look forward to seeing more of Britain. I would be keen to see some videos on British exploits in India & China in the 18th and 19th centuries. Particularly love the period around Gordon and saw Cleopatra's needle in London, donated by the Egyptians many years ago and sitting by the side of the Thames.

Fantastic work, sir, on all your videos, so glad I discovered your channel. I remember visiting the Crypt in St. Paul's Cathedral when I was in London in December 2003 and marveled at the memorial plaque for the British correspondents killed in the Sudan. Frank Vizetelly (who died with Hicks Pasha) was of particular interest to me as he had covered the American Civil War and I portrayed a Harper's Weekly artist at battle reenactments across the US for many years. I would love to learn more about the names listed on that plaque at St. Paul's if you are ever so inclined. Once again, good show!

Even had he been the most brilliant commander in Victorian history, it would have made little to no difference with such a rabble of an army(some of the conscripts would go so far as to rub lime in their eyes and shoot off their trigger fingers to try and get out of service. The Bashi Bazouks would regularly operate more as thieves than soldiers), and the political pressures placed upon him to achieve a decisive victory soon all posed almost insurmountable tasks.

Thank you very much Chris for bringing us this account of the British Army fighting the Mahdi and the first of the revolts.

Good video, explains a lot about this strange episode, Hicks really had a well-armed and supplied army, even if it with low morale, but why he didn't use bashibozuks for reconnaissance, to camp inside a wooded area where he does not command the view of surrounding terrain was also not smart...he could have chosen a plateau or something at least near the source of water, his cavalry should explore where the water lies and lead the army there. If the guides deliberately lead him into the trap it reminds a lot of Varus defeat in Teutoburg.
