It looks amazing compared to what it would have been originally. At the same time you do see the first footage is slowed down to much, where the original footage had a lot less frames and IA filled it in. With some horses you also see AI has a lot of problems interpreting 4 legs moving in the same place and what to do with them when interpreting the fill in frames.

It’s just incredible to remember that the time we’re seeing here: everyone you know and have ever known weren’t even born yet, almost everything you own and use every single day was barely even a workable concept. It was almost a completely different world. Yes, people did most of the same things daily, we have always woken up, used the toilet, had breakfast, gone to work, had lunch, gone home, greeted our families, had dinner, rested in the living room, conversed with our families, maybe supper then gone to bed, but everything else we do now, they didn’t do then. Truly special.

Yes. France was France. But the following countries were also France. And resources were taken from these countries to build the beautiful cities of France. 1. **Algeria** - Considered an integral part of France, Algeria had been under French rule since 1830. 2. **Tunisia** - A French protectorate since 1881. 3. **Morocco** - Not yet a protectorate in 1896, but it came under French control in 1912. 4. **French West Africa (Afrique Occidentale Française, AOF)** - A federation of French colonial territories established in 1895, which included: - Senegal - French Sudan (modern-day Mali) - Guinea - Ivory Coast (Côte d'Ivoire) - Dahomey (modern-day Benin) - Mauritania (included later in 1904) - Upper Volta (modern-day Burkina Faso, included in 1919) - Niger (included in 1922) 5. **French Equatorial Africa (Afrique Équatoriale Française, AEF)** - Formally established in 1910, but the territories were under French control by 1896, including: - Gabon - Middle Congo (modern-day Republic of the Congo) - Chad (included later in 1900) - Ubangi-Shari (modern-day Central African Republic) 6. **Madagascar** - Became a French colony in 1896. 7. **Somaliland (French Somaliland, modern-day Djibouti)** - Under French control since 1883. 8. **Indochina (French Indochina, established in 1887)** - Including: - Vietnam (Cochinchina, Annam, and Tonkin) - Cambodia - Laos (added in 1893) 9. **Lebanon and Syria** - These were under Ottoman control in 1896 and became French mandates after World War I. 10. **Comoros** - Became a French protectorate in 1886 and fully integrated by 1912. 11. **French Guiana** - A French overseas department since 1817. 12. **Guadeloupe and Martinique** - French overseas departments since the 17th century. 13. **Reunion Island** - A French overseas department since the 17th century. 14. **New Caledonia** - Annexed by France in 1853. 👍🏽🤡👍🏽

The apogee of french architecture way certainly a century before france arrived in Africa (french monarchy and Napoleon).

Oversimplification my friend. You are not taking into account the slums of Belleville, Menilmontant, and other neighborhoods of East Paris. It was only beautiful in the affluent westside and the center (and there, mostly the western end of the center). You are not taking into account the slums that were as bad if not worse than East London and the movie Oliver Twist in the periphery of Paris in what is today the municipalities that immediately border the city-proper, just outside of today's Peripherique ring road which at the time didn't exist. Paris was only beautiful for the affluent classes, just like NYC was at the time. No neighborhood in Paris or the suburbs looks as bad today as the worse neighborhoods looked back when this film was filmed. You just can't compare. And poor children under 16 worked, women could not vote, horses as you can see were overworked carrying rubble, and there was no anesthesia. And I say this as a history buff which is why I'm watching this video because I love history and Paris.

If horses were plodding along in a clip-clop fashion and we were to hear horses rearing up on hind legs in terror or old-fashioned car horns where it doesn’t make sense, I could see your point as to “fake sound effects”. That would bother me as well. I just don’t see a string quartet or chamber orchestra playing on the side of the road either.

The contrast isn't mysterious if you read something about the history of tech at that time. Small transport vehicles were horse-drawn because there weren't any motors small enough to power them. OTOH big equipment like ships, trains, excavators, cranes, etc. could be powered by steam motors. That's how it was possible to build huge projects like the Brooklyn Bridge, transcontinental railroad, Eiffel Tower, and so on even though modern diesel and electric power hadn't been invented yet.

Why did you make the video square, thus cutting away important material? It should be left in 4:3

... the sheer artistry of this - is that the viewer can actually make out the facial features of the people of that time!

Wow. The air pollution was crazy back then. Everything in the background is just smog.

@Poisson4147 2 күн бұрын

Some of that's due to the AI remastering, but yeah everything I've read has said the air was pretty rank back then. Wood and coal for heating, factory waste dumped into lakes and rivers, and so on. E.g. read about the 1856 "Great Stink" in London. 😷😷💩

Thank you so much! Very fascinating time! I just feel sorry for the horses and donkies who were forced to spend their entire life as a vehicle for humans before being slaughtered 😪

I know they say don't look towards the past when you're trying to move forward But I always find watching these videos is very helpful even Inspirational in reminding how far we have come only because we didn't give up or give in to those who would stop us from evolving..... Peace💚🌎🌺

The world when it was still a struggle but hadn't lost its innocence yet with Great World Wars. A time when your neighbor was your neighbor and you didn't hate one another for different views and could come together at the end of the day for a beer and a laugh. The Human Element!❤

Why is it surprising? The first electric trams ran in the 1880s. Many cities had them by the 1890s. As they say, Google is your friend....

So much pain at that time. No good health care, food etc… Around that time we lost a lot of people for famine in Finland (a bit earlier). You can romantize and dream, but good to know that it is only dream. You can be truly thankful for modern life, when you understand how many better things we have.
