@Manfred Connor So you can be just as confused as the Generals as to just what you're supposed to be doing. Don't take this in ill terms, I still adore the series

Well as soon as you life depends on it, countless times, for as long as you are alive or for some reason make it back home. As soon as you are there in the midst of chaos, it becomes quite simple and even dull.

I think they didn't count that victory 1859 because the gains were more or less lost again in the next years, ultimately nothing won for France

@@SmokeJam France did take position of the city of Nice.....which they still retain to this day....war was more about Piedmont and the alliance with them....a war that paved the way for the unification of Italy along with the intention of weakening Austria who was viewed as a foe against Frances second empire. The war worked in Frances favor....of course Austria was the big loser and would never win again..losing in 1866 and then its final defeat and collapse in 1918.

@@Andrew-pp2ql Well in that regard yes, France got what they came for, but their empire still suffered from it majorly and lost in the end

@@SmokeJam I won’t disagree napoleon III empire started to wield cracks as time went on. Constant wars did not help (Crimean, 1859, Algeria, Mexico, FPW) and of course the emergence of Prussia as a power was the finishing touches to that empire.

Quite right. The most absurd statement might be that the petty rivalries of the Balkan states ignited WW1... it was clearly Britains desire to suppress and destroy their new formost rival: Germany.

It has been surprising for me to see that trenches are being used in today’s conflict in Ukraine

@@rileyhiggins4753 Functionally, they never really went away. Sure armor can sometimes be enough, but usually not, othertimes sandbags are used. The most common type is probably some form of foxhole, as a more flexible form. I can't tell you how often we trained digging ourselves in, in some form at least. Trenches are just the most radical and wide area version of that. But obviously cover is and will remain absolutely key to ground forces. One tends to forget that parts of the Ukrainian Donbass front have been fighting for years, with little movement in either direction, hence trenches. Moskau's full scale invasion was not the beginning of hostilities, but merely an escalation.

@@autarchprinceps agreed the conflict has been going on for some time. If you don’t already know I would encourage you to look at the terrain of the Donbas area. Tall sloping wheat fields combined with mining tunnels galore. I was there in 2005 the people there are strong salt of the earth people. They would describe strong national pride however they had no love for the government in Keiv. I imagine the trench network combined with mining tunnels is vast after 10 years of war

Its not that surprising in some ways. Nobody paid any attention to lessions the Union and Confederate Armies learned in the American Civil War. In The Great War both Allies and Central Powers were still trying to assault fortified positions in 1914-1916.

😊

yes I saw that it had 3 parts, a shame it has been knocked back

Yes i had to double check the title I thought i was watching something else

But the previous two parts of the documentary are on the same channel? I watched them before this one.

@@cow_tools_ I dont know. All i know is this video is clumsily pieced together.

"Royal family wars"? No, it was not dynastic war to claim Russian throne or whatever, it was a conflict between different Imperial powers with their respective ideology, that is the desire to reclaim Constantinople (Istanbul) and get "warm water port" for Russia, against the desire to preserve the status quo for the Allies (Ottoman Turks, Britain and France). Not that different to how the Communists want to spread their ideology abroad (e.g. Trotsky expedition against the Baltic states and Poland). Fight and die for comrade Trotsky or for Emperor/Tsar Nicolas, for Lenin or the Rothschilds. They are all the same.

another fun fact is that this cousin haven't gave a shelter to Nicolas during revolution so bolshevics executed the whole royal family

Indeed. It also shows the utter disdain and indifference for the common people and their suffering.

The British apparently can't get their facts straight. E.g. 48:54

@@liberteidentitemodernite - Oh, the British make mistakes, to be sure, but they make them beautifully.

Μy friend the name is Σεβαστοπολις,the respected city in Greek.was a Greek colony during the ancient and the Byzantine times.here it is with capital letters.ΣΕΒΑΣΤΟΠΟΛΙΣ.Β in Greek is the V in English.there is no b in Greek.if pronounced like that is barbarism in the Greek language.also Cyrillic alphabet is derived from Greek hence the similarities.

👍 🇬🇧 !

Tassie K - Σεβαστούπολις. Η αρχαία πόλη που βρισκόταν στην τοποθεσία της σύγχρονης Σεβαστουπόλεως ήταν η Χερσώνα• (όπως η Κωνσταντινούπολις κτίστηκε στα ερείπια του αρχαίου Βυζαντίου, αποικίας των Μεγαρέων). Η ονομασία της Σεβαστούπολης προκύπτει από την εξελληνισμένη μορφή του λατινικού “Augustus/Augusta” (Aύγουστος/Αυγούστα = ελλ. «Σεβαστός»/«Σεβαστή» (Αγγλ., august, venerable, revered). Ο τίτλος έχει βέβαια ρωμαϊκή προέλευση (τιμητικός τίτλος που αποδόθηκε για πρώτη φορά στον πρώτο αυτοκράτορα Οκταβιανό Καίσαρα και αργότερα καθιερώθηκε ως μέρος των ρωμαϊκών αυτοκρατορικών τίτλων έως το τέλος της Ανατολικού Ρωμαϊκού κράτους- «Βυζαντίου»). Η Σεβαστούπολις όμως δεν υπήρξε βυζαντινή ή μεσαιωνική πόλη. Ιδρύθηκε μόλις τον 18ο αιώνα από τους Ρώσους επί Μ. Αικατερίνης Β´ στα ερείπια της αρχαίας ελληνικής πόλεως Χερσώνος και της δόθηκε η ονομασία «τιμής ένεκεν» της Αυτοκράτειρας, η οποία φιλοδοξούσε να εμφανίζεται ως «Αugusta-Σεβαστοκράτειρα», κληρονόμος των βυζαντινών αυτοκρατορικών τίτλων (όπως το «τσάρος» είναι παραφθορά του «Καίσαρας»). Σύμφωνα με τους Ρώσους οι τσάροι ήταν οι νόμιμοι διάδοχοι των ορθοδόξων αυτοκρατόρων του Βυζαντίου και η πρωτεύουσά τους Μόσχα η «Τρίτη Ρώμη». Έτσι λοιπόν η Σεβαστούπολις ονομάστηκε προς τιμήν της Τσαρίνας-Σεβαστοκράτειρας Αικατερίνης Β´. -Υ.Γ. Επίσης, ενώ όπως σωστά παρατηρήσατε το β προφέρεται όπως το αγγλικό v στην Κοινή, μεσαιωνική, και νεοελληνική καθώς και στην κυριλλική γραφή της ρωσικής, η φωνητική απόδοση του βήτα στα αρχαία ελληνικά ήταν όμοια με αυτή του λατινικού και αγγλικού b ή του σύγχρονου ελληνικού μπ. Το «βάρβαρος» δηλαδή από τους αρχαίους Έλληνες της κλασικής περιόδου και πρίν προφερόταν «μπάρμπαρος»• αργότερα κατά την ύστερη ελληνιστική περίοδο άρχισε να προφέρεται σαν το σημερινό «βήτα».

they made up for it later on...

@@caspian5964 yep, because the British scoundrels succeeded after all in getting them into a major conflict by creating an international coalition - like they did versus Russia.

way things coming to be. probably be worse than this...

Lawrence The Main dont say that dude its not good

Can’t see slaughter is much different, except for the uniforms & death comes from above and from the sea as well as land, even trench and cannon warfare in eastern Ukraine. Oh, and Russ make war on mother state, claiming she is illegitimate.

Hello there👋👋,how are you doing today?hope all is good 😊. God bless you!!❤

The why is explained in the first video, it was their attempt to invade the ottoman empire.

Since no one else has : I'd like to thank you for that interesting titbit !

Good point Jan. Should be a documentary on this War !

Anglo-Centric complaint. Why do you assume "things must have been much worse in other armies." In precious episodes they already discussed the casualty rates of all the countries, and discussed why disease/illness/death rates were so much worse in the British army compared to other forces outside the Turks.

@@ModelTrainOutsider The American civil war during the same period, claimed many lives from poor conditions, dying from weapons wasn't they're only worry, my sister's farm has 2- confederate graves 150 miles from any battle..

@@chadsimmons6347 Yes, I am fully aware of that. Pretty much all wars pre WW2 could have that said. I guess I am dull at the moment, as I am not sure what that has to do with my reply to the original complaint that documentary was making out how bad the British had it and not the others, as if the British somehow were better.

@@ModelTrainOutsider A few yrs ago Russia took Crimea back, no fight from France, Turkey or Britain, Obama seemed to give the takeover his blessing. That bloody war was all for nothing.

@@chadsimmons6347 0-for-2. Besides, Obama roasted Putin for it and got more sanctions against Russia for it. So, leave it there before you strike out on facts and relevance.

Hello there👋👋,how are you doing today?hope all is good 😊. God bless you!!❤

Germans took Sebastopol in June 1942, 87 years after anglo-franco-turks seized it, and remained there for 2,5 years. Heavy battle with artillery bombardment had been raging on English soldiers' graveyards before the city when German stormtroopers stormed the city.

it was given away by communist dictator Khrushchev who was an Ukrainian

I wish more people actually looked into stuff like you rather than just spew nonsense.

I think they were closely tied with the French. I’m assuming the French found it easier to rouse a vassal to send 15,000 troops than to send 15,000 more of their own. The French poured a lot of soldiers in already. They probably sent a message to Sardinia which went something like this ... “France, as you know, is at war. It is required that you raise an army of 15,000 and place it under our command for the campaign in the Crimea.”

​@@dorianphilotheates3769 he means the war not the film I think

Soon Poland will be back home of Russian Imperial land we will liberate it after Ukraine...

Yeah, that assertion was pretty bad. Second, third, fourth, fifth coalitions. Greek war of independance, expedition in Spain, Conquest of Algeria, Belgian revolution, Pastry War, Franco-Moroccan War, 1848 intervention in Italy, Second Opium War, Crimean War, Cochinchina Campaign, Second War of Italian independance, Conquest of Tunisia, Sino-French War, Madagascar expedition, First and Second Franco-Dahomean Wars, Franco-Siamese War, Franco-Hova Wars, Boxer rebellion. That's 24 victorious conflicts for tbe French in the XIXth century, of which at least 7 can be considered as major conflicts. But the Crimean War was the only French victorious war of the XIXth century lmao.

@@lahire4943 ... and the expedition to install the II Mexican Empire. Perhaps you should point out the difference between "victorious conflict" and "victoriuos war". I don't see any reason to exclude other conflicts as victorious wars for France.

even in the 1960s/70s many young men enlisted to avoid poverty , a jobless life and crime.

@@Sturminfantrist debt servitude through gangster enlistment. it was bad in the 60's/70s in America....its just as bad today....FREE ASSANGE.

If the cards you're dealt in life present the options of poverty, unemployment and/or crime. I'd go for the military every day. I'm lucky that the cards I was dealt gave me better options. A great deal of that "better hand" is due to my father having enlisted and fought in the military. It left mental scars on him that would never heal. However, given the options, I think my father would do it again. Not getting into the politics of the matter. Only referring to my father, and the good(and bad) that came of the "adventure".

When the British abandon the idea of dismemberment of Russia, then the wars will stop

@@CheloveckArtemmaybe Russia should learn to respect their neighbors borders?

Depends on the willingness of the superior force to massacre civilians on a large scale, when the Roman's or Mongols were dealing with guerilla warfare, the villages and cities were just destroyed and all the people killed. Russians just bomb cities into dust nowadays and force the population to flee or remove them...

too much drugs bro?

I guess that was what the plain Russian citizen might have thought. Actually, no one wanted to 'capture' or conquer the Crimean Penninsula; not even Sebastopol. The true goal was to deny the expanding Russian naval power any free access to warm waters from where they could pose a threat to western colonial empires.

@@danrooc Britain and France umpires were considering meditrenian sea their own sea only with limited participants of othman umpire so their political opinions were not humanity aims?!!! or civilization aims also illegal opinion. but loss of Crimea meaning losing of Russian dominant on Azofe sea which it's considering internal Russian water completely for that their fighting (Britain, France, othman) umpires were illegal fighting completely in the crimean war

​@@mohammedsaysrashid3587 Of course British and French empires were thinking in their own interests. All empires do, including the Russians. There is no such thing as "legality" in those affairs, just what diplomats and politicians build in order to pretend there is and justify themselves. Was it 'legal' the Russian navy annihilated the Turkish navy in first instance? It was all, as usual, related to what Machiavello called "Reason of State". Still is. The rest is a mere mirage. By the way and as I mentioned, I don't think control over the Azov sea was an issue, but to stop the Russian attempt to gain access to world wide merchant sea lanes from a port in warm waters.

when you are not admit of legal & illegal point about historical events its meaning you are giving power all rights to doing any thing ...but i am believe that every solder & officer fighting on his homeland with talent against any invader he is fighting with bravery only Russian military in this case were deserving bravery describing only

when you are ignoring legal & illegal point in historical events also equal between invader & owner homeland fighter that mean you are believing of power only power no more .but i believe of homeland fighters only deserving naming braver fighters because they are fighting against invaders

Еще один выползень...

Which Ukraine? Ukraine appeared in 1917, when the Communists destroyed Russia

Russia had annexed Crimea under Cathrine the 2nd and I don’t think the rest of Europe cared. I’m sure liberals were mad at Crimea losing its independence.
