The pronunciation is just, wow. Don’t quit your day job.

This is a good video considering you are summing up the history of one of the most fascinating countries in the world in less than 10 minutes.

During the War of Quadruple alliance, Spain went 1v4 against Austria, France, Britain, and the Netherlands. Spain took less casualties and lost no land.

Good video, thanks for informing us about each period of Spain. I would love for you to make long videos that explain each of these time ranges better.

In my travels through the vast Spanish empire, I have been amazed at how Spaniards treat Indians, like others, even forming mestizo families and creating hospitals and universities for them. I have met indigenous and even military mayors and bishops, which means in the social peace, well-being and general happiness that we already wanted for us in the territories that with so much effort, we are taking them away.

Great video - succinct summary on an extremely broad topic! This really helped me as I’m getting into Spanish history. I’m half Filipino and obviously part Spanish. I’m either 1/8 or 1/16… not a whole whole lot but it’s enough for me to want to learn. More people should be aware of Spanish history, as most of us are linked to it…

The spanish army wasnt really defeated by the napoleonic one. They conquered spain when the king let them in to conquer portugal, but napoleon decided to take spain aswell, betraying them and breaking the deal.The napoleonic army was far superior but still spain managed to win the war thanks to guerrilla warfare and brittish supoort.

Spain conquered the Philippines 1521-1899 🇪🇸🇵🇭

The French did not sucessfully invade Portugal.They attempted 3 times and were always repelled by Portuguese and British troops.

Super interesting and a good pace to be able to follow and take in ❤

This is a brilliant production!!

Spain defeated British outnumbered during Battle of Cartagenas

In 1785, Spain and Ottomans signed a treaty of friendship. Both Spain and the Ottomans protested the partition of Poland

Al-Andalus is pronounced Al-And-ahh-loose. And abdicated is pronounced Ab-dii-cate-iid

Damn, as a bilingual Spaniard, I wish I'd come across this video before my final high school exams...

Omg why this channel so good

Those are some interesting pronunciations you chose. Did you come up with them yourself?

Good thing he didn’t say spain started declining after the war of spanish succession

History makes us feel stronger, i love Spain's history

I wish he featured the Iberian travel from the caucus mountains

18th century was second golden age for spain

thank you. you taught me something. i'd like to add the tidbit that the famous painting "the bombing of guernica" was of the nazi luftwaffe bombing to help franco's forces during the civil war. it made sure it didn't bomb the unceta y cia factory allowing unceta to sell pistols to the nationalists, which he favored over the euskadi separatists to whom he had been selling prior to this. the company later sold pistols of 9mm largo,9mm parabellum and .380 acp to the nazis during ww2.

Britain itself wasnt apart of spain but due the fact that the queen of england was catholic and had married the emperor of the holy roman empire and the spanish empire, it became a habsburg monarchy until elizabeth coming into power when they turned into the house of tudor, which meant the protestant church came back into england and the catholics were forced out.

Skipped the coolest parts of Spanish history. Luckily the second half of the vid was better. 5/10

Great video

Muy bien explicado

Ethnic Pronunciations would be nice

Learning European history is a pain in the ass. I'll never wrap my head around it!

wtf wdym Morocco gained independence in 1967 😂 they gained independence in 1956

Pronunciation could really use some work, cringed hard a few times with the way the narrator butchered some names/words. Makes me suspect this is just someone reading a script and didn’t put in the actual work to gain the sufficient knowledge.

good video and great graphics, but god, the mispronouncing and misspelling all over the place made everything seem non-credible

Wow, that part about Francisco Franco - the dictator's role in making modern Spain what it is- a great country and amazing tourism hub was mind blowing🇪🇦.

Viva la Hispanidad

2:45 - Why is King Philip II shown as ruling England?

Bastante bueno comparado con lo que ahí por ahí incluso estos con tufillo xenófobo minimzador de la importancia de España en la historia del mundo

England, Wales and half of Ireland belonged to Spain in 1571?? An amazing revelation indeed.

I really really like this video but there's a glaring issue with narration! I mean I think the narrator was mainly chosen because of his sound quality as being young and relatable to young audiences. I understand why that is the case. All right why are these words in English pronounced so oddly? Peninsula abdicated abrogated Okay so I don't know if the person narrating is also the person who created this video but I mean there's so many mispronunciations in English much more French Italian and Spanish! Surely you can find someone who can narrate and actually know how to pronounce these words. I'm not trying to be mean but you know this is an educational video and I'm sorry to say this but the mispronunciation sounds so ignorant. It really doesn't sell a video at all as educated. I have to say that it's more than just the narrator it's the editor who allowed this to be published like that!

Why The Carthage era was omitted?

Suggestion: work on your pronunciation of some of these words. Even the English version of these Spanish words were...interesting

As a proud Spaniard, the pronunciation hurt lmao

Viva España

This is NOT a good explanation. You cannot start with the Roman times and go into modern time just skipping the whole huge period of reconquista. That is an extremely important long period of time. Also misspelling Barcelona is just unforgivable.

Literally doesn’t cost anything to double check pronunciation. Otherwise, very good video

Many names and even general words terribly mispronounced. And lots of gaps as well. Tsk tsk.

This was very informative, though my students fought over how many seconds it actually was.

explained way to fast but done its very best in the time it was given was always wondered where portugal fit it i may said that and id missed it because of it quick telling of spain

Ilove spain. I can feel it in my blood lol. Im filipino btw and you know the rest from there.

4th?

4:12 It's pronounced "Peace of BAH-sel", not "buhsSAHL"

Spain is a leader in organ harvesting and transplanting? 😅 What a weird example to point to when trying to illustrate that Spain is an advanced economy. You could have chosen the textile, agriculture, or tile industries-but organ harvesting came first to mind? 😅

Skipped right thru how Hebrews settled the lberian peninsula. Never mentioned how the city of Barcelona is named for the family of Hannibal Barca the "so called" black, great general who gave everyone he faced hell.

by the way its españa not hispania

prise the lord

Excuse me but the great economic growth of Spain didnt happen with the adoption of the euro but in Franco's time, that is to say, during the 60s and 70s. The adoption of the Euro was a bad issue for Spain, since the euro only favoured Germany and some useless countries of the North.

Some errors on the video since the Portuguese were the 1st global empire, not the spanish, and the spanish route trough africa into India also did not happen as the spanish had to go through the pacific to the philippines in order to avoid the portuguese on the sea and possible losses in battle for both sides

Spain is Spain you wouldnt call Africa Europe

Do history of England

Too much to cover in this amount of time. This was name, date, and location history, with little analysis or context. You need to go into more depth to understand anything here.

Bro are u reading this directly off wikipedia or something. U dont even know half the words or names ur saying

The pronunciation of names is atrocious. Al-Andalus was mangled. I mean, no one, NO ONE would know what he's talking about if they said it like he does. Very sad considering this is supposed to be an educational video.

Too summarized I think

You just swiped out 800 years in 1 sec 😂😂😂 ridiculous

Horrific pronunciations were a real turn-off. With all the tools available on the internet to help you pronounce words, I am amazed you would make this video without using even one. Mispronouncing even English words makes the whole effort sound, well, uneducated.

Man these pronunciations are way off. If you’re going to make these videos please put in the effort to learn how to properly say place names.

Why os pronounciation so bad?

This just in, Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead.

Viva el Rey

The history was good but the pronunciations are cringe-worthy. Please come to Spain, clearly for your first time, and learn how the words are pronounced.

Again,Spain is soain you wouldnt called Africa Europe

Mispronounced "Umayyad".
