At 1:38, you say that Normandy and the Channel Islands became part of England when King William of Normandy conquered England in 1066. You've got that the wrong way around. When the King of Normandy conquered England, England became part of Normandy (of which the Channel Islands were already a part.)
The question is not how did England end up with the Channel Islands. The real question is how did the Channel Islands end up with England. England still has a Norman king descended from William the Conqueror on the thrown, and the Channel Islands are what is left of Normandy so...
1606 to 1801 No red angle. I'm a model ship builder and it's nice to know these details when building early English ships. Also which side is right side up! Thank you.
Wtf is that like whats a calling card in that sense of the ckntext byfar idk how tf if nobody was supposed to be left alive because it was a war so extermination of the enemy was the purpose of the war/goal or intended thing by the hireup that put others out on the line that merely were trynna live.. an not die via trynna survive., but fwiw yeah thats., ironic how that would do anything is to have a card there,. Oh an just thought of a wonder in how the name bicycle was chosen maybe imma google it in the morning if its still a free spare tiem permitting., uh curiosity or quickly brief wonder that I have and recall thinking about it..
James was NOT Elizabeth’s son. James was Mary Queen of Scots son. Elizabeth executed Mary QoS and when Elizabeth later died without any heir of her own, the throne was given to James, United the two thrones as James I&VI
Can you please talk about the 2 islands during ww2? The German conquer and the brave citizens who didn't cooperate with the Nassim, against foreners, fighters, and Jews? There is a great virtual museum in memory of the brave and the murdered victims of Hitler, the biggest criminal of all times! "THE Girl from the Island". A great historical romance!
Ah But before Brexit if you had a parent or grandparent with a British passport you could work in the EU but when the UK Brexited the islanders came under same uk passport rules. Passport s held by islanders are stamped at passport control in all eu countries
I did a ancestry DNA test. It said my blood line is the original people of the channel islands. It said the Roman empire and the Norman's came and fight over something that didn't even belong to them. It use to be a island of its own.
People often ask why the Union flag isn't flown all over the place like it is in America where the stars and stripes appears to be flown everywhere. For the answer you need to understand how the British approach the subject. We only fly the flag when it is absolutely necessary. So apart from the odd coronation or a frightfully important Birthday this will usually involve the flag being flown at half mast. Although there is more than an element of truth in what I have just explained you will also need to understand the British sense of humour to understand completely. If you need it explained to you ,you are not British or incredibly dense if you are !!
Also currently the islands are experiencing a significant down turn in day trippers from France as they now need a passport to travel there which was not necessary before brexit so to say they were unaffected by brexit is incorrect.
Historically incorrect William the bastard was the son of Robert the magnificent duke of Normandy it was William that that invaded and became William king of England. Otherwise it’s a good interesting film.
240 odd views… as soon as I visited the mendip hills I wanted to know the origins!! We found frostless everywhere!! So many people must pass through absolutely ignorant..
What corrupted the soul of America way before Trump or Covid ? Give me a Fucking Break. You have to wave a False Flag of lies about Trump and connect that to the False Flag of lies of Vietnam... How Pathetic...
British didn’t wear camouflage. Stopped watching and found a real documentary about Hobart’s Funnies when you put palm trees on the beaches of Normandy.
So if I have like 30% of my DNA tracing back to the Channel Islands, what the heck am I? 😂 would I be considered European? I’m confused now as some of that 30% is also connected to Germany, Belgium, Wales.
I was curious too. Coming from Jersey we've always been told that the islands were the only British land to be occupied by the Germans. Maybe he's confused with invaded and occupied? Maybe the Germans invaded some uninhabited islands up near Scotland, realised it was stupid and buggered off before anyone else noticed?
This video is a bit biased towards the Catholics. So I'll be biased the other way to even things out a bit. Henry VIII was one of the most powerful men in the World at the time......and when the Pope wouldn't let him divorce, he basically said "bollocks then, I'll start my own Church." Which he did, including destroying all of the monasteries and confiscating all of the Catholic Church's wealth in England. There was nothing anyone could do about it other than terrorism. I think Henry saw the hypocrisy and bullshit in organised religion and also saw it as a source of great power and wealth for the man in charge.....and he snatched it from the Pope when he wouldn't play ball.
The French did not have the control of america in mind at all, if that was the case the would have sent a larger army, the French troops did not exceed 10k men on the ground.
I almost left when you bashed the best President America has ever seen. He's stopping the child trafficking and the rest will expose itself. Try researching Trump before you bash him! You are not awake. #ChildTrafficSurvivor You People have no idea what people do with children today and have done for DECADES!
