Virginia Colony: How to Start America | Animated History 

Ngl, Bacon's rebellion ending with Bacon dying of dysentery is probably the most anticlimactic event in American history.

This has all the trappings of a successful channel. Easy to watch, funny and creatively animated. Getting in early before the subscriber count explodes.

I like this kind of interpretation. Mr. Terry History brought me here. New Subscriber here.

Interesting thing about John Smith: begore becoming the leader of Jamestown, he fought as a soldier in the Long Turkish War. He was even knighted by the Prince of Transylvania, Sigismund Bathory (and before you ask he is Elizabeth B's first cousin) and served in the Wallachian Army.

I remember hearing your music presented to my class by my 5th grade history teacher, I enjoy your music and I'm extremely happy to see your content expand into content with a deeper understanding.

Since this channel is brand new, let me know which historical topics you'd like to see.

This is good enough to be an actual show, I love this perfect blend of comedy and education

"Who's ever heard of a Brittish Empire" sent chills

That neighborly chat between the colonial powers' got my laughing muscles cramping up, especially the Sicillian pope and the French beaver hide crib xD

OMG! I just noticed one of the 7 dwarfs in part 1! Nice job

One: amazing history Two: amazing humor Three amazing art style I love it!!

This is absolutely amazing content!!

Really is the best history channel on RU-vid I love your work so much, I’ve watched and rewatched everything and I still keep coming back! Keep up the amazing work ✌🏽

Mr Terry gave you a shoutout and I love this channel already.

Just watched Mr. Terry's video reaction to this. You've got a new subscriber.

Absolutely love your content and beyond shocked you don’t have 100s of thousands of subscribers

Pretty funny, your historical facts were very good! Keep it up!

that skyrim reference hit harder than dropping your phone on your face

Awesome vid man. It was funny, informative and had really good animations. Glad Mr. terry reacted to your video. Got a new history channel on YT to watch. :D

HI MR. BETTS

Well a random RU-vid video suggestion was actually worth it, just subscribed 👍

How did I only see this video now? Great channel, Hilarious and educational

Amazing how a small village grew to become the world's strongest country in a mere 400 years

Honestly mate if there's any justice you'll get the subscribers and views that your work deserves. You're doing something different and individual in a area that's already got a lot of channels that cover similar topics but in different ways and often similar styles to each other rather than the new direction and style you're doing. Keep at it man. As you've seen getting mentioned by other channels is a really good way to grow so maybe reach out to some other channels and offer to work with them. Maybe you can offer to do the animation or write the script for a collaborative video or pair of videos. I'd suggest Overly Sarcastic, Jack Rackem, Extra Credits and History House Productions as great places to ask as they use animation, comedy to entertain and teach interesting topics like you and I can see you all working well together in styles and approach. Keep at man. Honestly it'd be a real loss for RU-vid if you were to stop.... And me...

loved it. thank you for helping me homeschool.

The hat representing the Pope made me cry with laughter.

this is the entertainment i been lookin for

Well done. New subscriber, saw a reaction vid on Vlogging Through History. Looking forward to more!

No worky no foody would be a pretty good law even now tbh

The use of Lacrymosa for The Starving Times is chef’s kiss perfect.

"That's not even a tree..." Damn that was good

Mr. Betts I really like your channel.

2:30 he went to the same exact spot because it was a good hiding place from Spanish naval patrols up the coast from Florida

"Queen Elizabeth 👸Tudor the first, the Virgin Queen, 👸 Gloriana, and Good Queen Bess?"

Great intro!

War of 1812 would be interesting animated.

As a Dutch person; I’m kinda sad about the New York takeover, yet beavers are inferior to spices anyway…

I love the Applebee's in the background. It's the epitome of who we are now in that realm. 😅

Great video!!!

I'd like to see you do videos on the lesser known American wars.

damn genuinely a great fist video

But but.... HOW DID THE ROW BOAT BLOW UP!?

Very good for time limit

'Come on, who's ever heard of a "British" Empire?😂' *Rules of engagement have changed. Bravo Six going dark.*

amazing

Jamestown Colony North vs South

Anyone else gonna talk about the captions?

This video is great. The subtitles are completely jacked, though. It looks like some import from an xml document failed, it all looks like encoded data rather than plain text.

Can you fix the captions please?

Everywhere i go i see him

My ancestor Dr John woodson on was one of the first English military/ civilian surgeon in North America... And the first English slave ownnnner in North America... Yea ash some good and some bad

France's House is Covered in Thousands of hairy beaver Integuments and the inside contains Bageuttes

Hi from Mr Terry history. :D

“Oh fart.” *actually farts* 😂😂😂

We also whooped John Smiths ass once he came back once-Nathaniel Causey after retreating to Jordan’s Journey outside Jamestown

Good Vídeo

Was that a reference to Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter at 2:37?!

3 years later... Captions still broken.

Those dysentery deaths, man.😂

Turn on closed captions

Wheres the Massachusetts bay company video? I cant find it when i seatch

Can you please do the civil wars or world war 1 or 2

This was accurate.

PLEASE COME BACK...VA HERE

"Hoh please be 18!" LOL

nice gave it a like 😃👍 (i’m with reese)

Mr Terry sent me here! Really liked the video can you please do the space race?

I didn't know Roanoke was literally attempted and failed twice by the same dude.

Could you by any chance, fix the caption on this video? It's helps with what's going on in the video.

Who animated these? Do you do it all on ur own??!

Mr. Betts, I have loved so many of your videos in the past. I like this one. I'd like to offer some well-intentioned criticism if I could. Lately- the last year or so- I've had to make sure I pre-screen your videos before showing. I probably won't ever show this to my class. "Please be 18", "bugger off you wanker", "sausage party", and "turds" are terms that would get many my kids focused on the wrong things and not the lesson you're trying to give. Yep, I know they say turd all the time, but if I show it in class, I get the heat when parents lose their minds over it. And there's always at least one parent who'd hear about it and get spun up. My kids are middle-schoolers, and maybe not your target audience, but they easily could be included with a few less inclusions like the ones I've listed. I'm not trying to be prudish, but you've been in the classroom, and I'm sure you've fielded emails and calls from parents who make mountains out of molehills, and these days when everyone seems to have an advocate or a lawyer on speed-dial, I'm not taking an unnecessary chances. I know my administrator sure wouldn't. I love showing your videos, but there are just some I can't anymore. Take it for what it's worth, and I'll delete this if you'd prefer. Just wanted to offer a viewpoint from a fan who has played more of your videos in my class than any other creator on RU-vid. (And that includes John Green and Crash Course History.)

Well England liking tobacco, well Walter Raleigh was one of the first men in England to popularize it, with even a legend about one of Raleigh servants chucking a bucket of water over his head thinking he was on fire when he was really smoking his pipe

Can you please do battles in Texas history?

Not to mention indentured servants were treated like shit

The subtitles are really messed up for me

Can you make a French Revolution video?

That colonial garden England was watering grew into a nation more powerful and all of them

Can you talk about the founding of Pittsburgh?

Pewds being Sweden made my day lol

Accurate

“Weird flex, but okay.” 🤣

Jamestown… not there to start a country but a company.

When the military humor comes out... "What do I get?, "You get to shut up!".

Is that JJ at 6:50 -ish?

Christopher Newport is my 11th great grandfather.

6:04 is this J.J?

Hey somethings wrong with the closed captions

Pardon me, WHAT is up with the subtitles of this video Is this an ARG or a critical website error

My teacher said there was a not so nice word high school humor so she skipped it at 4:02 I don’t know 😬 maybe the meant the not so nice word at 5:13

The captions are broken.. They’re just scrambled letters and numbers for me.. :(

There is a weird problem with the subtitles...

How does a rowboat explode. Was it an attempted assassination?

Was Sweden's geographical shape too indecent for the algoritm? Because ********* seems the more indecent image. But otherwise this is a good video.

King James VI & I: King George III you did something illegal

VTH sent me here!

Are you the same guy who does fallout history cause yall sound identical

Bacon literally sounds like the cynical historian.

50 acres for paying someone else to come? Yes please

Mr terry sent us this way. Hopefully we don't end up like Virginia
