European Countries at their GREATEST Extent

Have you wondered when such countries as France, Russia, Germany, Poland or Turkey (featuring the Ottoman Empire) reached their territorial peak? Answers to some of these questions are obvious, although it's not always the case. In this video, I would like to address these questions and show you the lesser-known history of Monaco, Georgia, Slovakia, Albania and many other countries. Moreover, each country's description features trivia with more or less known facts. Enjoy!

@clementlarnicol 10 ай бұрын

Austria wasn't really a client state of France, but rather just defeated by France to the point where they decided to ally the French Empire. But it was technically still a sovereign state. Prussia, who's often depictured as defeated but sovereign, was in fact both a client state and under military occupation of France so yeah, I agree with you on that.

Sweden's borders at 6:00 are wrong. Sweden only gained Trondhjem Len at the Treaty of Roskilde. You have also marked the northern part of Bergenhus Len as a part of Sweden. One can also argue that Denmark's greatest extent was around 1613, when Denmark owned Norway from Finnmark to Bohus Len, as well as Skåne, Halland and Blekinge. In 1782 Denmark of course had Greenland, but Greenland isn't shown on the map.

It was a poorly-thought idea of mine to do so. If I plan on doing a remaster of this video to include the correction of all mistakes present, I will include the map of the entire world to better show the European colonial empires

Russia is just the remains of the confused Slavs that were conquered by the Mongolian golden horde.
