How World War I Started: Crash Course World History 209

Getting ready for world war 3 gotta know the prequels you know

When WW1 ends Most of countries: Finally, peace Some german boy that got rejected in art school: *Peace was never an option*

You guys would be legends if you made a quizlet for each video

no one: the class trying to take notes: sobs mr. green pleaSE talk slower

Whos watching during corona quarantine instead of history class

I love how Switzerland was surrounded by the war, but never fought in WWI or WWII

no exam,no school,no assignments. just a guy who is interested on war.

The comments in Crash course world history videos: 33% Mongol memes 40% people who are asking others if they are studying for tests like them 27% actual discussions about history

5:06 Scrolls Down Disappointment

Otto Von Bismarck said '' One day the great European War will come out of some damned foolish thing in the Balkans'' he was reffering WW1 and he said that 36 years before First World War.

Watching this 100 years after the war ended Never forget

john, i love the vids man, but my brain just cant keep up

I can't be the only one watching this for a history exam ?

What makes history so fascinating is that the events themselves can be interpreted in so many ways. You could find in the unfolding events an argument that pins the blame on really any of these powers. John Green here in this video did a great job of illustrating this.

What i learned from crash course: So archduke Franz Ferdinands death was due to a butterfly flapping its wings... The butterfly was the initial cause of world war 1 and eventually world war 2. Makes sense.

Gavrilo Princip was the most influential man of the 20th century, not because he was an inventor or a brilliant mind but because the incident he caused had a domino effect that still affects the world today.

1:50 so the butterfly started World War One! Of course. No one suspects the butterfly!

So a guy killed a guy so that guys group of guys got mad at the other guys group of guys so they attacked those group of guys so the other group of guys call in their friend guy who owned a grouped of guys and then the original guy that got killed group of guys called in their friend guy who owned a group of guys so another group of guys also helped that other other group of guys so then the Original guy who got killed group of guys ally attacked a group of guys to get to the other other other group of guys but then another group of guys allied to those group of guys came in to attack those group of guys attacking there friends... So like that?

Nobody: Me: goes straight to the comments for a summary

I miss going to school and my teacher having him as a way to explain us each topic and all of us would watch him. I mean I could learn this without a teacher, but it’s not the same and I miss my world studies class. The only class I liked tbh
