The Balkans in a nutshell “The enemy of my enemy is still my enemy.”

Nobody The balkans: *peace was never an option*

Balkans in 1912: We love you Italy Balkans in 1940: We hate you Italy

Anything: **happens** Balkans: *you have started a gang war*

I have a feeling that this comment section will be gold.

Take a shot each time Romania gets invaded

Jesus Christ Russia pouring into Romania every 2 seconds

Russia: I'll help you Greece: Yay Russia: but I want Constantinopel Greece: yo,wtf man

A lot of Turks have been watching this, judging by the number of dislikes.

Props to Montenegro for constantly having been there longer than anyone else

The Balkans is like my family You don't know who is gonna start it You don't know when it's gonna happen You don't know how it will start All you know is that there will be a major fight and nothing will stop it

Balkans: **exists** Russia: *It's free real estate*

Russia got quite the addiction of pouring right into Romania huh

3:23 Byzantine Empire respawn.

This is going to be a *_fun, happy_* comment section... Am i right, everyone?

Ottomans: Why do these revolts keep happening? Russia: Evil laughter in the distance*

Serbia: I want to be independent Turkey: No Serbia: HEY HE SAID THE "N" WORD [Slams desk] Turkey: can I have my lands back Bulgaria? Bulgaria: No Greece: HEY HE SAID THE "N" WORD!

From 1867 it isn't Austrian Empire, it is Austria-Hungary.

Balkan people have a tough history, respect.

I'm from Puerto Rico but I don't know why I love this region and its history, this video is incredible and really informative! Love to all balkans people! 🇵🇷

Ah,the comment section.Always worth a laugh.

None Empire lasts forever!!!

Brilliant work! Never before have the Balkans been so thoroughly covered in a mapping video.

Please dont get politic.... Ah it's too late anyway Cuba and russia toghether caused the fall of the new Zealand empire

Me: Hello, you are solder from First Serbian Uprising? Serbian soldier: First!?

All balkans should have a common day to celebrate. freedom from the othoman empire

I know that technically Crete is not in the Balkan peninsula (in the strict geographic sense) but it should have been included since it was the stage of numerous revolts. Other than this omission and a couple very minor errors this video is excellent.

Ottoman ruler: - You know, i got a feeling that they don’t like us up there.

00:00 - 16:54 - Wars everywhere. 16:55 : F i r s t B a l k a n W a r

Russia: Declare War On The Ottoman Also Russia: But First, Let Me Take Those Two (Moldavia and Wallachia)

Uh ... Two things: 1) This was really well done. Thank you. 2) I can see from the comments preceding mine that ... the wars are not over ...

Bulgaria rlly had all that coastline and rlly was at the gates of Constantinople but nah Macedonia was just too tempting wasn't it.

ελευθέρια ή θάνατος (freedom or death)

4:52 *well that escalated quickly boi*

you got greedy Bulgaria never get greedy

6:27 *Albanian revolt starts in Macedonia* He a Little confused, but he's got the spirit.

Man, Serbs never give up. They rise again and again...

17:15 My back hurts so much

Romania:*exists* Russia:It's free real estate

the Macedonian rebels were known as Bulgarian rebels at the time

Свобода или смърт

Constantinople belongs to Greece.

0:58 RUSSİA:Oh my god I have wallachia. 1:57 OTTOMAN:nope

I just like how small country like Montenegro screwed up Ottomans very badly. Salute to u all Balkan ppl. U r the symbol of true resistance.

TurGAY

Turks crying about how they did nothing wrong and the balkans were "peaceful" during their rule after occupying the balkans for around 500 years and causing most if not all of its ethnic tensions due to displacing

Fun Fact: The Greeks invited the Brazilian Emperor Dom Pedro I to be the king of Greece, but he declined because he was fighting many rebellions in Brazil. Dom Pedro refused rule Bolivia and Spain too, he loses the Uruguay but won a civil war to the Portuguese Crown as Pedro IV and died at 34.

17:03 Bulgaria bigger than ever - Not enough - Lost Dobrudja, Macedonia, Thrace, Adrinople.

17:10 Bulgaria's Border to Turkey is simply wrong. They never controlled a part of the coast line of the Marmara Sea after the Treaty of London, see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_London_(1913)#/media/File:Balkan_Wars_Boundaries.jpg, you can clearly see that they don't have a border on the coast.

Long live Bulgaria ! Macedonia is Bulgarian ! Thank Russia !

Wtf, balkans fall and now its playground Ah, middle east fall and İTS REALLY PLAYGROUND

The Bulgarians got greedy and paid the price

Props to the romanian principalities For constantly having been there longer than anyone else

Why do these videos get so many dislikes? They're just informative ffs

15:29 Those are BULGARIAN rebels, not ""macedonian'"". They were fighting for Bulgarian macedonia!

Turks vs World ;)

Albanians and Bosniaks have betrayed their Christian roots. So sad.

*Sees title* Level of stress: %99

It should have included Crete too, the Cretan are Greek too and their heroic revolts played a big role and are a part of balkan history Overall when it comes to Greek history you didn't mention the Orlov revolt ( a major event for the balkan history overall, along with it's aftermath ) the Cretan revolution 1841 ( it was the third one for Crete, first one was part of the Orlov revolt and the second one was a part of the war of independence ) the Greek Macedonian revolt of 1854 (altho you did mention the Epirus revolt that happent the same year) the Cretan revolt of 1858 the Cretan revolt of 1866-1869 (major event) the Greem Macedonia revolt of 1867 the Cretan revolt of 1878 the Greek macedonian revolt of 1878 ( you did mention the Epirus revolt of the same year and we can see the Greek Macedonian areas on the map, but no mention of Cretan revolt ) No mention of the Thessalian revolt and the battle of Mouzaki that included Greek army troops No mention of the Cretan revolts of 1885 and 1888 No mention of the Cretan and Greek Macedonian of 1895 and 1896 that led to the 1897 Greco - turkish war No mention of the Macedonian Struggle ( 1904 - 1908+ ) As you can see Crete played a huge role in the balkans ps Small detail the Dodecanese should have turned into Italian collors after 1911 . ps 2 Theriso revolt was not against ottomans that's why i didn't mention it .

A participação do exército da Rússia foi fundamental para a libertação de vários países europeus do Império otomano, como a Grécia, Bulgária, Romania e Estados eslavos dos Balcãs, depois os exércitos do Império Austro-Húngaro.

I like how they teach us at primary school that "We ruled Balkans with peace, it's just darned *Nationalism* provoked them! _uh and we may tax them because they're Christian , pillaged and maybe took their children and able-men for slavery_ " also man Wallachia, everybody loves Wallachia so much.

Russia and turkey: get into a fight Russia looking at wallacia: *you know the rules and so do I!*

PROUD OF YOU RUSSIAN EMPIRE WHO LIBERATED OPPRESSED CHRISTIANS FROM THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE LOVE TO ALL ORTHDOOX CHRISTIANS ☦☦☦☦🇷🇺🇺🇦🇧🇾🇷🇴🇧🇬🇬🇷🇷🇸🇨🇾🇲🇰🇲🇪🇲🇩🇦🇲🇬🇪☦☦☦☦

From 1867 it was Austria-Hungary not Austrian Empire

You forgot to change Austrian Empire on Austro-Hungarian Empire (1867)

there were multiple rebelions of greeks in northern thrase as well

Those Greeks got their independence immediatly!Wow quite impressed ther'. But they were planning it from 1815 to get it exactly right.

Macedonia: *exists* Serbia, Bulgaria and Greece: It's free real estate

Greetings from Finland. Finnish guard participated in these wars along with our bulgarian friends.

Every time the Russian Empire enters in Romania!

Everyone was afraid of Bulgaria back then. Good times.

The ilinden uprising was Bulgarian not Macedonian

After Greece revolt they collapsed.

I think that you should have added the Orlov Revolution in Greece at 1770

They were so close to getting (and maybe keeping) Constantinople

*Love my Christian Brothers from CHRISTIAN STATE BOSNIA!!!*

The uprising in wallachia in 1821 was part of the greek war of independence ; it was organized by the "friendly company" (filike etaireia) and its goal was to kickstart the revolution (being in contact with the revolutionaries in the peloponnese) . Its leader was Alexandros Ypsilantes , a greek national , who in cooperation with the local (greek and non-greek) population and Greek volunteer troops from western Europe , declared independence from the ottomans . They numbered in the tens of thousands , half of them were greeks and everyone fought for a common cause . However , many locals decided to abandon the campaign since the russians refused to take part in the war and the ottomans threatened to retaliate against the civilians if the regiment wasn't disbanded . Adding to that , Vladimireskou was found a traitor and was executed by the "friendly company" (filike etaireia).

🇬🇷 1821 🇬🇷

E ovo se zove kvalitetan sadržaj! Svaka čast, momci! :)

They are liberated and immediately proceed to start WW1. Amazing

Eleftherios Venizelos the greatest of all, kicked the Ottomans from Balkans and Asia Minor until the gates of Constantinople

Liberty or Death! Respect to all slavic nations of Balkans from Russia.

Love and respect to 🇧🇬 from 🇷🇸

It’s sad that it took Christian nations that long to get their act together to take back their lands.

3:13 the rebels in Romania were also Greek as well as Romanian

оoooohhh these turkish tears are so salty and delicious,yesss

The Albanian revolt was led by Dervish Cara, an Albanian Muslim, it was very succesful and could have led to a autonomous Albanian state in the half of the 19th century, but we were betrayed by our fellow Albanians. The Catholics of Mirdita led by Bibë Doda sided with the Ottomans crushed the revolt of Albanian Muslims. But yet (Albanian) Catholics nowadays claim that they are the most patriots in the Albanian nation which is totally untrue.

Romania (Wallachia, Moldavia, Transylvania) was not part of the Russian Empire, they were allys. The Russian Empire helped the Romanians fight the muslim Ottomans, when it was convenient for them. The Romanians did most of the fighting, always asking their Christian neighbors for help (the Russian and Austro-Hungarian Empires).

17:07 Така е трябвало да си остане!

I like Greece 🇬🇷 greetings from Chile 🇨🇱

And the Balkan countries lived happily ever after

The Tu🦃rks still have a Butt hearts till this day. Long live the Balkans 🙌.

16:44 You f*cked up, bro!

The Ilinden was indeed the biggest uprising of IMRO, however there were a ton of others as well before 1903 (Tikveš, Ohrid, Debar etc.) which weren't necessarily against the Turks. Great video btw.

Balkan people taught a lesson to the ottoman empire

Much hate to ottomans, stay strong Balkans

The dog ottoman piss blood never impacted Croatia thank you Jesus!
