Hi John, I know there's a big chance you wont see this, but i just wanted to thank you for making these videos. I just took AP World History final today, and for the first time this semester, i feel extremely confident with my test. My teacher is very specific with her questions, and along with the dense wording of my history textbook, history hasn't been a fun experience for me lately. But you made me excited to learn again. Thank you. P.S. Good luck for those of you studying for your finals!

It's only possible to watch crash course and understand what John (or Hank) is saying IF you've already fully learned everything covered in the video. Otherwise you're screwed. At least for me, crash course is only for review and reinforcing information

I'm really glad you mentioned the importance of local collaborators. That's really underrepresented in descriptions of imperialism. From my high school education I assumed Mighty Whitey rolled in and conquered everything. It took me years to understand that native rulers decided to side with the winners and work out the best deals to maintain the local status quo under foreign domination, and in doing so have an effect on that foreign domination.

@ryanjordan6295

6 жыл бұрын

Yeah, and working with local collaborators is not a very new system, either. Lots of empires had done the same before (ancient Persia, Rome, etc.), as it helps ensure regional stability, which is really useful for tax collection, resource extraction, and military allocation/ distribution. Life for the vast majority undergoes only very minimal change... Which is why the Dutch, Brits etc often discouraged missionary activity in their colonies-- it could contribute to social instability which could either topple the whole system or make it much less profitable-- stability is good for money!

India is the best example, 90% of the British army in India was made up of Indians, and 50% of the subcontinent was still governed by local rulers rather than British governors. As Hitler once said, if all the Indians spat at once they'd be able to drown their "British overlords".

Imperialism is the true form of capitalism. Modern capitalism would never have been possible without it. Even though most of the world's imperialist expansion came about in the 19th century, imperialism still exists. The only thing which has changed is the language used to describe imperial conquest: expanding markets, collateral damage, spreading democracy, opening new markets, foreign aid loans, etc.

I really really REALLY need to stop reading the comments to these videos, because it seems 95% of the viewers don't get it. At best, they skim through this on a superficial level, looking for something to piss them off, and then when validated by a rather mundane detail, they go to town. At worst, they come here, complete with their own rigid, stubborn, never-to-be-enlightened agendas, much more pleased with discarding thoughtful and educated discourse and opting for bold, not-thought-through declarations. Occasionally someone will put some heart and soul into a comment. Not very often, but once in a while. Like... As a history major, Green doesn't surprise me with concept. Details, yes, but the overarching historical and social concepts, I already have a good grasp on, and I enjoy his take on them. Occasionally he presents something that I hadn't considered. Truly, the phase of world imperialism he's referring to in this video is actually rather short, only from about 1830 to the end of World War II. We think of Europe dominating Africa for centuries, but the reality he presents is, it only happened when warfaring technology gave the Europeans such a decided advantage. So it begs the question, especially considering Sub-Saharan Africa, how did the UK, France, Belgium, Portugal, and any other power so deeply disturb the continent that it became a collection of nation basket cases, post-colonialism? If Africa and Europe had been battling each other, each more or less holding its own for pretty much all of history and probably before that, how did the European powers so deeply screw the continent up that now we see them as little more than corrupt nations ignoring the plight of their people, one civil war after another with the occasional smattering of genocide, perpetual guerrilla outfits armed by the superpowers, starving children with bloated bellies and flies on their faces, and Ebola and HIV roaming the streets like the Grim Reaper incarnate? How did a continent of proud peoples become THIS?

If I had to pin it down to one reason, like Horrible-Artist699 above I'd guess it's a lack of an educated populace. But that's not the fault of the colonizers. Other reasons that come to mind: 20-century population explosion, arbitrary grouping of nations, extreme linguistic diversity and deliberate sabotage... but these challenges would have been a lot less devastating if not for the precipitous difference in technologies (both "hard" and "soft") compared with external polities (and their compounding advances taking off particularly in that century) -- this includes education, infrastructure (cf. Asia) and all the things that make anything larger than a complex chiefdom possible. And then there's the inherent fragility in societies (or basically anything that isn't a pyramid of tessellated rocks).

Guns, Germs and Steel is a good crash course into this topic but the arguments it makes are inadequate and serve as a small picture of a much more nuanced anthropological understanding of human history. While this is still the prevailing explination up to High School AP, it rarely is the serious focus of more advanced levels of historical theory these days. We can all appreciate Diamond's work (especially in refuting prior racist historical theories claiming European supremacy purely by divine, cultural, or genetic right.) but in many ways the book overcorrects to the point of rendering most human agency null against a grand geographical lottery. Since the book's release, it has been used by many to let the west off the hook for inequality and exploitation under the excuse of geographical determinism. The truth, as always, is very complex and messy.

@mikebaker2436

dang, defeating the italians in battle is such an amazing achievement! /s

10:40 - And they are great at rugby. Great video John.

I only read the small wikipedia definition that appears when you google it and watch this full video like five times already and that's it, I'm ready to confront my monster history teacher for the next period. Thanks John & everyone else involved.

john green is the reason i love history and geography

thank you jonny!, however you have got to save your best history classes I want some!!!!

10:25 you misrepresented the way bullets work

I kinda think Crash Course should have a channel on TV. Like at 7:00 pm Crash Course History comes on and we learn about Trans Atlantic Trade and then Crash Course Phycology comes on at 8 and here we listen as Hank describes the controversy of testing Intelligence. I would watch them everyday

Love to see you making video on gurkha empire and nepal history

Great explanation bro, good job. keep it up. Clear and precise.

John Green you truly do a justice for the world. There is a popular sentiment of undermining those in the 'third world' as undeveloped, backwards, dictator-infested, and by some, genetically inferior. You have with virtue explained that the idea Africa simply submitted with hardly a fight is ill-founded and far from the truth, as well as adding that prior to industrialisation they resisted invasion as the imperialists simply were unable to conquer. You have a fan in me, John Green.

did anyone notice the subtitles, they are hilarious lol

You should do a video about the cultural impacts of imperialism.

My favorite history class of my undergrad was Pacific Imperialism. :) Thank you for posting this. It was a nice refresher. It's awesome to see another person so enthusiastic about history!

Mao-ri. Not may-ori, John.

I just realised that this guy wrote the fault in our stars?!?!

I have the most incompetent teacher, and a midterm soon, you saved me, so thanks John Greene
