    That’s incredible and I’m happy you’ve come to know your true origins. Forgive me if I offend you with this question, which I truly am not trying to do, but do you think its possible your parents were higher up’s in the Nazi regime, and moved to Latin America to avoid prosecution? If so, it would be pretty cool to find out who they were as they still might be missing on official records. Anyways, its really cool that you get to piece history together!

Seems a common theme in Europe, war, war, and more war. this was a great video They want the EU army in this modern day. Happy to be American, we want all wars to stay overseas, easy when your surrounded by a vast sea.

    @@buddymoore6504+ Yeah, the United States didn't want to be ruled, it wanted to rule. Manifest Destiny may be a good example. And it's a very stupid thing. We shouldn't rule the world. We attack sovereign nations without a moral, ethical, or just reasons. We undermine other nations' political processes, and try to force others to comply to our wills through threats of economic, military or covert actions. You know, the United States would be a great nation (for the first time) if we actually tried to make the world a better place. If we acted more like a leader than a tyrannical despotic nation, imagine what progress we would make in this world. But we got to fix the issues here first before we can actually do any good. Unfortunately, we have yet to have a government that actually doesn't have the people's interests at heart. Not now, not at the founding of the United States, and I don't think anytime in near future.

Not just word-of-mouth, but a written history, for example, those in the North of England, identifying with that history, aspects of it, just like those in the south.This did not happen in germany until a couple of generations after 1870.Up until that point, each region, the people's would be taught the history of their region and would identify with those within it, but not with those in other regions that are now part of the modern collective german identity

    Grateful aya. That which is printed in history books is controlled by the world ruling elite. He who controls the money, including hard earned tax dollars, also control what is poured into your mind. The whole world is deceived. Governments, whether communist or fascist have been kept kept in check by the Vatican. The Vatican is nothing but a tool used by the world ruling elite to maintain control over the masses. Those world ruling elite who control the world banks, also control governments. This is why the congress of the U. S. has been deneutered and has become a congress of do nothingers. They have been bought off by the world elite and delagated their power to the unelected authoritarian bureaucracy spearheaded by the CIA and answerable to no one. The world ruling elite has taken over the government of the U. S. in order to reestablish the European revival of the Holy Roman Empire. The spirit of Charlemagne will rise again. The spirit of Charlemagne was controlled by Satan. There was nothing holy about the Holy Roman Empire. History is controlled by those with the power and money. The truth about the Holy Roman Empire from Justinian's kingdom beginning the church--state relationship to Charlemagne, to Otto the Great, to Charles V, Habsburg Dynasty, to Napoleon, and on to the sixth kingdom which was Hitler; all these kingdoms had one thing in common. They all had a great false church riding on their backs. That great false church used the power of those individual governments to supress the truth. This always led to rivers of blood. That spirit of the revival of the Holy Roman Empire, a European ten nation combine led by Germany with the Vatican riding on its back will soon rear its ugly head. Rivers of blood will flow once again. After blood flows like rivers and billions are dead worldwide, never again will man rule over man. Mankind was given free moral agency and chose to partake of the tree of good and evil. Man chose Satan's nature rather than God's nature. Mankind chose his own governments, his own RELIGIONS, his own science, his own economy and his own educational system. All of mankind's institutions are inside out. Mankind has created a bowl full of sewage by rejecting God's nature. Because mankind was created as free moral agents and chose on his own to follow his own human nature, better known as satanic nature, man will learn the hard way. By aversion therapy and the rivers of blood man creates by his weapons of mass destruction, mankind will be purged of his pompous, arrogant, puffed up with pride attitude and will be humbled. For the first time, mankind will be free of the influence and control of Satan and his demons to be reeducated in God's way of life; to live in God's spiritual ten commandments as a way of life. As for the world ruling elite who play the nations against each other as though they were chess pieces, they will learn what God meant when he said, "it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to. make it in God's kingdom."

    lets not forget the real heavy weights,: the many in the field of natural science like mathematics, physics, chemistry, economy, historiy, archaelogy, geography, urban planners/architects, blacksmiths/engineers and constructors ... most real innovations and changes are from them. and I dont just talk about Gutenberg, Gauss, Euler, Rothshield, Fugger, Goldmann/Sachs, Gutenberg, Einstein, Planck, Leibnitz, , Goedel, Escher, Bach, Siemens, Daimler, Porsche, Horch (Audi), Braun, Bosch, Hahn, Bunsen, Koch, Paracelsius, Altzheimer, Freud, Jung, Schliemann, Humboldt and so on ... for instance Knight armor (best were South Germany and North Italy) and Swords, complex mechanical constructions already in medival age (many famous blacksmiths!) ... and the ones who crated the infrastructure/universities/spots for that ... today often more 'entertainers' or philosophers' are named (and also shown in the TV, even in their 'modern versions'), but the real impact had mostly other ones ... of course some were generalists like Dürer (a real heavy weight) ... and keep in mind how many battles who changed the history were the result of 'better weapons', better ships, better food ... constructed/innovated/brought by whom? it was already an interesting documentary if one just focus on the genious blacksmith and little developers of the old times in Europe. many less known yet famous people at their time - with a lot of impact. hidden champions!

    I would see it relaxed and a bit out of the box. The cultural hot spots changed over time in history. If you look over a few thousand years then from Persia, Greek, Roman to the successor of the Roman to the more middle and northern Europe countries and their colonies - which are are at the moment the most wealthy and innovative cultures (UK, Canada, Western- and Northern Europe) ... slowly Southeast Asia adds more and more (Japan, South Korea, Singapore, China is on the same path) and might even overtake on some aspects... But my posting was about something different: due to the left wing/socialist ideology we often talk to much about cultural lightweight cultures (like entertainment, actors, social/moral-'philosophers') but less about the real cultural heavy weights ... we also have to much left wing milieu actors, singers and so on in the TV talking about the reality and society instead of real scientists. I don't like this shift from natural science to ideology/religion ...

    Like More coffee said: It is inaccurate and factually wrong at times. And then there are omissions. Why did the Romans call them Germans? Because they came from Germania??? Lol! It is more likely that they called them germanii meaning something like 'warring people' in latin and thus called the area the same people lived Germania. The origin story that is stated as fact should also be taken lightly. Though migration is mentioned it does seem to be misaligned. It is more likely that there is a link to the people we know as ancient Assyrians (who are described by contemporaries as pale in complexion, formidable warriors, highly cultured, etc. and not Iraqi), hence the connection to the so called Aryans being a form of Assyrian (though there is some confusion thrown in as some went to India). There are many examples of the connection such as Austria is called Oestenryk (eastern kingdom).

Palestine was a Kingdom, it was part of Ottoman Empire and was ruled by Hashemite Royal and allowed Christian Faith to Thrive. The Protection of Christian pilgrims was protected by German Knights even in the 1904 times. German and Austrian Knights of Habsburgs and Hohenzollerns were in these places. There was peace between Austrian and Ottoman empires during these times they always go into these Churches. A british Lord of Irish blood was murdered, Lord Moyne and 93 others. Those who have claimed israel comes from kabbalist, communist, zionist in which all the founding teachers of these 3 disicplines were all jews... "son of a bitch!" right?

    Every time I hear "Germany" refering to something prior to 1848 I get goose bumps... ...In a bad way... I watched this because I was interested in how german history would be portraied...because it is a thousand years full of complex topics and there are some misconception that seem to be common in english-speaking countries. (For example: If you see a map of national borders in medieval times.... It is wrong... yes always. And many words aren't chosen well. For example the modern concepts of "Monarch", "Nation" or "State" don't fit into medieval reality...) Some common misconcetions are repeated here (more than I care to write about...) but overall it still seems well done. There are some oversimplifications but If you don't turn a mosquito into an elephant (common german proverb) it seems to be an adequate synopsis of german history. PS: Don't get me wrong...there are more things in this video that are terribly wrong than I would like to write about... BUT... In Germany it's considered praise enough if you are not beeing scolded... ...at the same time we are told to say nothing if we can not say something nice... soooooooo........................The short mention of the concept of Translatio Imperii in 31:10 is ery nice. I'm sure this is a good overview for many people but (coming from a historitian) I can not follow your enthusiasm and I wouldn't call this "true history not watered down"...

    A friend of mine, after drinking a couple of beers, enjoys teasing anyone, while offering them a drink. If I bring him a German friend, his joke is invariably the following one: "Great Germany. And the Germans are excellent people. But every now and then you suddenly go crazy, start a war and unfailingly lose it" ;-) My German friends do not protest (especially the Swabians), also because the Other continues to offer a drink :-) And refusing could provoke a war, given the proximity to Legnano .. Waiter: another bottle of wine! (just to smile)

So no need to keep her locked away in side the dungeon or even have a dungeon. When sat in the top room in the high tower beneath the turreted roof court yard the number of bricks never seem too many. You know they support the high tower. So with out 'much bricks' no much tower.

    Ah, the old crooked castle stairs... Designed with uneven steps to trip up assassins or invaders, and built all narrow and winding to favour the defenders above, rather than the chaps coming up them. There's a fair bit of science to getting widths and angles just right so that it's a bitch trying to fight your way up the staircase but easy to defend...Castles are full of sneaky tricks like that. They're also very draughty, to let the farts out😆

    @hanz patinski I fear they will play a huge role in massively destabilising Europe in the centuries to come in ways the Continent probably hasn't seen since the Wars of Religion. I mean, they tend to feel more kinship with their religious brethren than they do with their respective 'countrymen', so to speak. This could lead to desires for territorial change as they grow in numbers. Also, Pew research published a few years ago showed their growth in various European countries by the year 2050. They're set to be around 16% of Britain's population by then, 20% of Sweden's, 10% of Germany's, 17% of France's, and 12% of Italy's. That's only 30 years from now let alone by the end of this century. I would post the link but it has the name of the religion in the link and KZread deletes my comments mentioning the religion. If you do a search for "Pew research growth of [name of religion] in Europe by 2050" then it should come up.

That, or...maybe the reason Merkel imported millions of third world military-aged males is for the European military they're talking about now. Next step, limit welfare to citizens, like the left wing parties in Europe are currently discussing. Then offer them the chance to enlist, where they'll make better money than the welfare they don't qualify for anymore. They'd rather do that, than go home. Then, the leaders of Europe will have a military filled with men who despise Europe, Europeans, and European culture, chomping at the bit to stomp on Europeans wherever their masters order them to.

And I forgot some: the “Paddel vom Duvensee” (one of the oldest proofs for sea-travel), oldest music instruments (flutes) and the „Löwen-Mensch“ (oldest piece of art). And, if we can believe modern scientists, even the wheel was invented on modern German territory, parallel to the people in the Middle East. But this is not yet proofed.
