This was the beginning of a legend.
-
If you’re having a bad day, always remember that at least you didn’t start a war only because you took a wrong turn
-
crazy to see how much oversimplified has improved since their first video (writing this just after 2nd punic war part 2 came out)
-
Ain't no way this is already 6 years old. I still remember watching this only a few months after it came out. This basically shaped my entire life into history and I'm now better than anyone I've ever met!
-
School: you cant use wikipedia Me: laughs in Oversimplified
-
I like how he didn’t even introduce his channel and just started spitting facts
-
Seven years ago and it still holds up just as good
-
I think we should share oversimplified videos in schools. Despite being oversimplified, he does give out a lot of good information, but not just that, he does it in an entertaining way. So when kids watch these vids, they get a good idea of what likely happened, and then, with this knowledge at hand, it can encourage them to study and know more of the intricate details.

Imagine taking a wrong turn somewhere and suddenly you’ve changed the course of human history

WWI: caused by shooting an austrian guy WWII: caused by not shooting an austrian guy
-
7 years and this video is a showcase of exactly how far oversimplified has come. It's crazy how both the length of videos increased with the quality honestly
-
Anyone else here 7 years later to keep the engagement up??

“Belgium is like school, something you have to go through” ~ German proverb Edit: France is like the summer on the other side.

Germany is that one guy in online PvP/Battle Royale games that has to carry the entire team and loses as a result.
-
The "How about I don't" at 4:21 is one of my all-time favorite Oversimplified moments
-
Whos here after the new video to see how much the animation quality improved
-
Ww1:the war to end all wars. Hitler:well yes but, actully no.
-
Who caused ww1: an uber driver Who caused ww2: an art teacher

I like how he adds more crosses after he finishes talking 3:50
