I love this! Well produced, and thoroughly informative! Excellent job. Subscribed for sure. One thing I would like to point out is that James Cook's crew caught some otters along the Russian river, which they found sold for a 9,000% markup from what they were used to once they made it to China. This sparked the fur rush, long before the gold rush. Russians came first, and named the river. French fur traders then came down along the 'old Oregon trail', and would convene at French Town, which is how Stockton start, for their annual fur trading party. General Vallejo was concerned about this, so he sent his daughter to homestead in order to establish a northern boundary of Spanish terrritory, which is how Santa Rosa began, and this is why the northern-most Spanish mission is in Santa Rosa. Italian migrant workers then came to do the masonry for the chateaux with the lava rock, like Jack London's wolf house, and began a lot of the apple orchards in Sebastopol (I don't think Sebastopol was named by Russians from the fur trade), and began Martinelli's, then of course the wine industry has brought in a fair amount of French involvement, relatively speaking (SSU offers a certificate in French for the wine industry specifically, for example, and Bastille day is celebrated widely in Sonoma County). So it is a fascinating convergence of Spanish, French, Russian, and Italian history, and generally I would say there is signfiicant Asian immigration demographics along the West Coast in general, there are a lot of Buddhist and Eastern groups, etc compared to somewhere in the Midwest, for example, so these are some of the key demographics and historical backgrounds of the area. Sadly the Pomo declined substantially in numbers, especially during the gold rush when the state of California paid $5-$20 per scalp, and paid out millions, so basically state sanctioned genocide. Today the Pomo are doing their best to preserve their culture and history. We are on native land. Thanks for sharing! Again, great video for us nerds lol :)
