This is our WW1 compilation video, originally released in 2016. Unfortunately, the original was demonetized and made 18+ by KZread, presumably because of the very few (and carefully chosen) photographs of war dead (no actual reason was given). This was frustrating not only for the obvious financial reasons, but because the video was intended as an educational resource. The video has now been re-edited to remove some of the more explicit photographs. Hopefully KZread will allow this version to remain available to those of all ages seeking to learn more about this important episode of history.

Your World War I documentary is a masterpiece of storytelling. The way you use a simple map to transport us into the heart of historical events is nothing short of brilliant. The combination of engaging animations, well-chosen music, and the immersive sound effects turns what could have been a standard documentary into an enthralling cinematic experience. Your narration, with its captivating accent and perfect pacing, brings these events to life in a way that's both educational and deeply moving. This is hands down the best historical documentary I've ever seen. I'm looking forward to more amazing content from your channel. Keep up the incredible work!

I'm sure that this leaves a lot out, but I know that in June 1919, the remnants of the German Navy were taken to the north of Scotland to salvage the steel from the ships. There were barely enough German naval soldiers to run the ships under Allied control, but rather than see their ships scrapped for their enemy's gain, the German naval soldiers mutinied and scuttled the last bits of the German fleet and died several months after the Versailles Treaty. Many consider THEM to be the last casualties of the First World War.

Some slightly deeper explanations: 1. Italy never really wanted to be allied with Austria-Hungary. Although Italy and Germany had been co-belligerents in prior wars during their unifications, Austria-Hungary had been the main opponent of Italian unification, and still controlled territory near Venice that Italy believed properly belonged to them. But in the 1880s, Italy and France were trying to colonize the same parts of Africa, and Italy was concerned that they might wind up at war with France- a war they couldn't win. So they reluctantly joined the Triple Alliance. By 1900, the danger of war with France had passed and it became quite clear that Italy wanted out of the alliance. To wit, Austria-Hungary actually drew up plans to invade Italy and seriously considered doing it in 1911. They didn't, however, and when Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia, Italy finally had their escape hatch and pulled out of the Alliance. 2. The Schlieffen Plan actually called for a tiny token force to guard eastern Germany while the majority of the German Army invaded France via Belgium and the Netherlands. But the German chief of staff at the war's start didn't believe the plan could actually work so he changed it, notably that he left more forces in the east to face Russia (despite how badly Russia had fared in their recent war with Japan), and did not invade the Netherlands. So as it played out, Germany bogged down in Belgium, and was stopped at the Marne as shown in the video. Would Schlieffen's plan have worked better? There's no way to know, but Nazi Germany did do a version of it in 1940 and it was wildly successful. Although it also involved driving a lot of tanks through the Ardennes and tanks weren't invented yet when Schlieffen came up with his plan. 3. The collapse of Austria-Hungary was actually already starting as the Battle of Vittorio Veneto was being fought. It was pretty clear that the empire wasn't going to win the war, so Hungary's parliament voted to declare independence on October 17. Within days of the battle's end, what would soon become Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia also declared independence (on October 28th and 29th, respectively). When Austria-Hungary signed the armistice at Villa Giusti on November 3rd, the empire was already shattered. On November 11th, the Emperor issued a declaration that (deep paraphrasing) he was going to allow Austria to become a constitutional monarchy, but the writing was on the wall and everyone just took it as an abdication (even though he had deliberately avoided abdicating). Austria immediately became a republic and banned the Habsburgs. The Emperor also happened to be the King of Hungary, so when Hungary later became a monarchy again (it's complicated), he tried to take his throne back but nobody accepted it and Hungary became a kingdom without a king- an old Austro-Hungarian Navy admiral became the "regent" and ruled Hungary until he was overthrown by the Nazis near the end of World War II. Anyway... this is why Austria and Hungary signed separate peace treaties after the war- they were already separate countries by that point.

I worry that the allies humiliated Germany too much at the end of ww1, taking such large portions of land on all sides (not to mention what did Africa do to deserve being served up like a piece of pie) corners of their land they took national pride in, it just sowed too much hate and resentment over the following decade and a half among its citizens. It's not excuse for what they did during ww2 but I think there's a lesson to be learned. If you are going to allow a power to continue to exist, it might not be a good idea to beat them down and leave them with such shame they cannot let it go. They had way too much incentive to not let it end that way. It's sad because maybe of all the needless slaughter on all sides especially what would start at the end of the 30's.

Great my arse, read all these and refute my points if you can. 1- Ottoman didn't declare war on Russia at all rather Russia declared war on Ottoman after German pre-dreadnoughts bombarded Russian ports. Those two pre-dreadnoughts were in mediterranean when WW1 began and they took refuge in Ottoman. Germany gifted them to Ottoman but they were still operated by German crew and they bombarded Russian ports without any involvement of the rest of Ottoman navy. Then Russia declared on war Ottoman, even if such an attack didn't happen most probably Russia was still going to attack Ottoman as the whole point of them joining the war wasn't capturing Prussia from Germany or ''helping Serbia'' at all rather capturing Bosphorus from Ottoman.. 2- 1914 Russian territory gains from Ottoman and how they supported Armenian population to revolt are completely ignored for obvious reasons!! Rather told as ''for accusation of cooperating with the enemy'' but in reality here is an Armenian official saying they literally acted as a Russian proxy because they thought Russian empire was going to liberate them. How they began preparations for the revolt EVEN BEFORE Ottoman joined WW1!! How Turks wanted to confer but they refused because they believed they were going to win, literally everything is there but ofc you can't find such ''irrelevant details'' in western sources: www.tc-america.org/files/Katchaznouni.pdf 3- After Armenians revolted in 1914 eastern Anatolia was fallen into a civil war that both Turkish and Armenian civilians were targetting each others. Hundreds of thousands Turkish civilians were killed during ''Armenian resistance'' or ''self-defense'' which is again completely ignored for obvious reasons. After such high casualties Ottoman decided to displace Armenian population into Syria and Lebanon which were still parts of Ottoman but far away from front lines with Russian empire that Armenians were getting their supplies from!! But ofc it is again completely ignored and acted like Ottoman sent them into deserts to die somehow even if in Syria there isn't any large desert because euphrates running through MIDDLE OF THE COUNTRY!! Also Turkey nor even Ottoman never actually refused there were atrocities and dozens of Ottoman officials faced trial and got punishment including an Ottoman governer but care to guess how many Armenians faced any kind of trial for targetting civilians?? ZERO!! And to cover up this fact Armenian atrocities are always ignored by so called ''humanist'' west.. 4- Russians signed armistice and peace agreements with Germany and Austro-hungarian empire not Ottoman and the fighting continued in eastern Turkey and Caucasus!! Ottoman launched a massive offensive in 1918 and not only liberated entire eastern Turkey also pushed into Caucasus and northern Iran. Liberating Azerbaijani cities including Urmia, Tabriz, Baku which were under Armenian militia and Russian and British control and planned to be added to the new Armenian country. Ottoman forces even pushed into Dagestan and cleared entire Caucasus from both British and Russian forces which is how ALL Caucasus countries could declare their indepedence from Russian empire in 1918 but ofc once again this ''irrelevant detail'' was completely ignored. The red army invaded Caucasus again in 1920 but they didn't want to risk another war with Turkey while the most bloody civil war in human history was still ongoing so they signed treaty of Kars with Turkey and other Caucasus countries recognizing their independence and borders. (Treaty of Kars ceded both Nakhchivan and Karabakh to Azerbaijan not stalin etc like some morons from the west claims) 5- 1:03:17 this was the most ridiculous and softened version of treaty of sevres i've ever seen which was even ignoring Greek parts!! Here is the actual map of Anatolia if Turkish war of indepedence didn't happen ofc: 64.media.tumblr.com/e78dcc8931fb8b8e0b56f788494f5949/91d002ff3d67afa1-93/s1280x1920/e3dc3de709aa48e60a078c31399a33641848729b.png PS: Some people might think im defending my country etc BSs while i couldn't care less what westerners think about us rather im only adding the missing facts that so ''truthful'' westerners couldn't mention...

No, an enormous number of men but not a whole generation. In fact if you look at the European population graphs for 1900 to 1930 you wouldn't be able to tell that a major war had taken place in Europe. Difficult to believe but true. As an example in Britain there were 7 million households in 1914. 700,000 men were killed, so one in 10 households may have lost a male member on average. Though truly horrific that is not a whole generation.

It's just a convenient occasion that we consider the assassination of Franz Ferdinand as a beginning of the war. There were revolts and wars in the region before 1914th. The true reasons were the intention of European powers to review the borders in Europe and colonies, to expand. It's like you can predict now that WW3 will begin in the Arab region. If it's supposed to begin

@Jayo Delaware Germany didnt lose because of that, Germany lost because of the countries it fought, I'm sure that Germany could beat France and Russia with Austria Hungary and the ottomans to support them. But once the British Empire enters the war, the whole thing changes and the balance favors the allies with the massive resource the Empire has to feed the war machine, eventually with or without the USA the allied onslaught would overwhelm Germany, the ottomans would colapse as would Austria Hungary. The way for Germany to win would be perhaps to appease Britain or form an alliance with them in the 1890's.

14:05 The Germans didn't just start to sink ships without warning. They followed international rules of war, approached the enemy cargo ship, ordered them to halt, allowed the crew to leave in lifeboats, and only sunk them after. The British began using unlawful tactics: they feigned surrender, and when the German submarine approached, they fired at them with concealed cannons. After a few such sneak attacks the Germans gave up on the rules too, and began just sinking them. Of course, British propaganda was screeching about German "war crimes" after that.

I can watch videos about serial killers sadistically torturing their victims, with images of murdered people and get an ad for the latest double-cheeseburger from McD's, but if you try to touch something like this it's no-go.

balfour declaration. 1917. a mandate for the creation of israel. Hundreds of millions of white Christians died in WW1 and WW2 to enable its creation for Rothchild. no wars 1,2 ... no israel in 48. monarchs were a thorn in their side. the czar especially was hated for certain reasons. our central bankers funded the communist bolsheviks in russia to take him out at which point they wanted america into the war. . also playing a major role in the treaty of versailles that would almost guarantee another war. nothing in this world just happens. What we see now with the pandmic didnt start just two years ago. Privately owned fed came in 1912 USA for 3rd and final time, 1913 here in Canada. We as a nation were debt free prior to this. Who owns fed? 911 was staged to take out remaining countries that were outside our central banking system. Apparently controlling shares in large companies all trace back to vanguard. who owns it? Who is behind WEF. this battle we are in now started with a pre-emptive strikes of disease and injections. the war involves digital id and cashless society. a war that will see us as fodder (A consumable, often inferior item.) We have been warned. JFK / Communist manifesto/certain protocals/agenda 2030/great reset. democracy is easily infiltrated and controlled theres only one group that has been truly international, having forces throughout the world. they have been behind all wars for who knows how long. one arm of it is now named the wef. from having nation states fighting each other to further their agenda to now dissolving nations into a one world gov under their control. you will never learn the truth watching a history channel video.

It's that voice, the one Mr Charles Nove uses to beautifully narrate a face paced, incredibly exciting film made remarkably with a map, some moveable flags representing whole armies, and a few bits of black and white photography, magically made into the perfect telling of the horror of World War One. Remarkable.
