Watching Frederick's advance through the compilation of him during both Silesian Wars and the Seven Years War has been an amazing experience.

I originally put this on to fall asleep to as I go to bed, here i am 3 hours later still awake and sitting up attentively watching the screen. Absolutely incredible documentary. As an American, I only learned about the north American front of the 7yrs war. Here in the states knows and the French and indian war. Absolutely incredible documentary and couldn't be more satisfied.

Same here. As a kid in school, I always thought the name of the war meant that 18th Century Europeans couldn't count, as the American theater of the war lasted for 9 years rather than 7. It was only when I began studying history a bit deeper on my own that I found out that the bigger, bloodier part of the war in Europe didn't start until 2 years after the North American part did.

By far the best Prussian/Frederick the Great focused 7 years war series on yt. Keep it up.

This documentary is the best and most detailed available anywhere. PERIOD!! Thank you all for the hard work.

A case of beer and a large pizza and I'm ready to watch it all, again!

Introducing such complitation with such details of those Fredrick wars showing complete understanding political businesses involved wars of those European states at that period ....allot thanks for sharing...

It’s about damn time someone made a high quality detailed video about Frederick the greats battles.

The Compilation we all knew we needed! Thank you so much man!😊😊😊❤❤❤❤

3 hours 24 mins of rich history. Love the hard work and passion in your work. I know nothing so that I may humble myself to learn new things.

An absolutely awesome series! Thanks for all your hard work!

This was a great video to pass a Greyhound bus ride

A great series! thank you for your hard work HOH!

I think at the end of the videos you should make a tactics synopsis stating the tactical lessons we can learn from the battles.

A well made documentary i just binge watched the entire thing and was never bored.

You did a phenomenal job. There's no such documentary on the conquests of Frederik The Great. Keep you the good work and your channel will grow exponentially ;) I'm sure of that

Wonderful video. I appreciate all of the research and hard work you put into the production.

I just noticed that pretty much every occurrence of "thousand" in your videos, when referring to manpower, is enunciated as "thooouuuusand." I like it.

Frederick the Great after the war : _"I've won against all odds, but at what costs"_

really cool series. thanks buddy!

Wow, great video! Thank you for yor work.🎉

GREAT VIDEO! THANK YOU!

Absolutely great video

Me, seeing all the Prussian casualties: Damn, this can't go on for much longer. Me, looking at the time stamp and realising that it's only 1759: Damn, this is going to go on for much longer.

I can see why the Germans of WW2 looked back on this period as an inspiration to keep fighting, as Luck played a huge factor in overcoming the odds, The Germans were holding out hoping to get lucky

Frankly, they defeated the Russian Empire and took much of its lands from the West, and what saved Europe was the 2 million American army.

Great Video about daring battle tactics in 7 years war . However some observations from outside point of view : (1)Frederick of Prussia made 1 diplomatic alliance with future Tsar Peter . This saved his Eastern side from Russia & caused Tsar Peter the fool to face palace coup which caused his life . (2) Frederick started the 7 years war because he thought Empress Maria Theresa would not be able to hold her throne . He hoped to get valuable territory from Austrian Empire . (3) However Frederick was outmatched by Austrian diplomacy lead by Maria Theresa herself who made treaties with France & Russia before her marriage . Not only she gave valuable gifts to Ottoman Empire but also trade treaty to prove icing on the cake . (4) Maria Theresa father & his court was impressed by such diplomatic negotiations by his daughter stating " You might just become a successful Empress. If you give birth to a son with half your skills , he might become a Great Emperor ". (5) Prussia Army used Flintlock muskets veras Austrians , French & Russian army used matchlock muskets. A technological advance allowed Prussian Army a quicker load & repeating shots within shorter time period. However some of Prussian Generals did not use this advantage instead preferring bayonet charge . The primary reason for huge losses in clashes with other armies . (6) Prussian cavalry used Flintlock muskets however several officers & cavalry units preferred cavalry charge over simply reloading those muskets . Imagine if cavalry had reloaded their muskets & attacked in waves ! The Austrian & Russians would have suffered higher losses & wounded soldiers. (7) Prussian Army became used to quick March as soldiers & officers took turns riding horses veras Austrians were rather slow & cautious. Daring & Dashing quality can give a slight advantage however other qualities can very well nullify or minimise it . " War should never be prolonged over a period , both sides ultimately suffer with inflation, currency destabilization, devasted countryside,wounded, missing & dead soldiers ! " . This is a repeating lesson that History teaches us ---Kedar S Barve .

1:16:37 never seen Daun in such a hurry, it must have surprised Theresa aswell

Good God, now this looks like fun!

Here to rewatch it 😅

Zorndorf is an apt name for this battle!

I think Napoleon was psychopathic. Churchill too. It's not just a question of "controlling one's emotions" to deal with causing 100s of thousands of deaths, it's the wiring of the brain that creates the mind.

James Francis (von) Keith was Scottish … what a surprise ! (1696-1758) Generalfeldmarschall of the Royal Prussian Army. An amazing life

For all Frederick's tactical brilliance, careful preparation, and strict army training, his overconfidence betrayed him and he bit off far more than he could chew. He was ultimately only a fanboy Tsar away from complete ruin! His story is the ultimate example of the saying "it's better to be lucky than good"...

Not to highjack your great work, but on a slightly related topic. The channel K&G has purged most of their videos on Prussia. A channel devoted to "Kings and Generals" has almost no content on Prussia. Really weird, like conspiracy levels weird.

You’re definitely gonna have to hire a narrator. Your narration is very subpar quality, including pronunciation.

Hell yeah

Does anyone know a good documentary I can go to to catch up on how these different countries ccontinued to evolved after Charlemagne died and better understand their differences? This seems like a very good war documentary but I feel very lost not understanding any of the motives of how it got to this point and why they're fighting each other.

There is a good documentary series from ZDF (German Public Broadcaster) called "Die Deutschen" (the Germans) from 2008 in which they sum up the history from the Ottonen (the Saxon house that got elected Kings of the Germans and eventually holy Roman emperors after the Frankish Karolinger dynasty died out) to today. There was an English dub published but no idea where to find it

This channel absolutely rocks 👌

Yeah, it became really noticeable - distracting even - later on. I vastly prefer the historical portraits, even if there's a more limited selection to choose from and they're not consistent with one another stylistically. And of course most AI art generators steal from real artists by sampling without regard to copyrights or permissions, which is just scummy.

​@@TheZombifiedGuyi like the AI art more, mostly because of how retarded some portraits look. I mean, look at Daun, you'll think that the victor of kolin would look something like napoleon's crossing of the alps, but he just looks like he's one step from shitting himself

If you're looking for topic ideas, I see that someone has done a series on the War of the Spanish Succession, but their narrative and graphics are not as good as yours, or those of Kings & Generals; maybe you could do a better job? Alternatively, what about a series on the rollback of the Ottoman Empire in Europe, starting with the late 17th-Century? This would be a good way to present the campaigns of Eugene of Savoy, and the stark differences good and bad commanders could have on Austrian military performance. Lastly, though not in terms of interest, what about a series on the French Army on the Western Front in WWI? Aside from the First Marne and Verdun battles, there's little in English about the premier-sized Allied army of the Western Front, even though they basically WERE the Allies on the WF for the first half of the war. I see nothing in English online about the Race to the Sea, Dixmude and the 'grignotage' attacks of Joffre of late 1914-late 1915.

Really enjoyed this documentary and its vista of the Seven years War from Frederick's perspective. It showed that he had his lows as well as his highs, and how close Prussia came to being obliterated on more than one occasion. I am left pondering how much better would the world have been if he had failed, and Europe had not been plagued by the wars before and after German Unification and a couple of World Wars that would not have happened otherwise??

The role of the SYW in German history is key to understanding events of next 2 centuries. No wonder blood and iron became such a key philosophy. Excellent video puts these battles in context showing the true depths of the struggles of Prussia.

This is such an incredible feat of research, writing, filming, editing (both video and audio, The music choices were very hype, the maps were also very immersive) and uploading. Only the craziest sons of bitches can do this, and you have earned my respect.
