War of 1812 (Remastered Edition) - Manny Man Does History 

Son: Can we have Napoleonic Wars? Mom: We already have one at home. At home: *War of 1812*

Thank you for highlighting the universal cruelty and expanse of the conflict and mentioning each of the atrocities that are left out of Canadian and American history books

I never recall learning all the absolute destruction that happened during this war. Thanks for this indepth video.

So the war was just a massive slugfest and borderline stalemate where the two main combatants just kinda got tired of it and called it off?

Thanks for the birthday upload, cheers!

I got a project on the war today and I completely forgot to read the book. How convenient

An infamous time in the history of both British-American relations and Canadian-American relations... the War of 1812

I would say that all British goals of the war were met. Hold onto Canada while fighting Napoleon etc. Where as all of the American goals were not met. They had not taken Canada. Which was a main war goal for them. The loser was definitely the native Americans

As a Canadian, knowing the Americans anthem is about us & UK is always nice.

My ancestor was a Kentucky mounted rifleman, survived the massacre of Americans at River Raisin and fought at the Battle of the Thames where Tecumseh died.

My hometown of Havre de Grace Maryland was burnt down in the war during the British invasion of the Chesapeake. It's actually an interesting tale as our lighthouse keeper, John O'Neil an Irish immigrant was the last militiaman to flee and was imprisoned for several years until his daughter successfully secured his release.

Thank you so much for redoing the War of 1812. The first video was a little fast for my students to listen to and comprehend. This video is perfectly paced.

As someone who lives very close to amhurstburg the pronouncement Made me cry a little 😂

Yay! First view and first like!!! Cheers! Also, Newark NY is 80 miles east of your placement. The only error in a fair and even-handed assessment of the War of 1812. I love your history vids!!!!

0:35 the frenchies say : We are french but technically we are british! Canada is awesome!

The Thames River 10:40 go through my backyard

Man every major United States conflict really did start with someone fucking with our Boats.

14:17 this is common misunderstanding of the lyrics, people have misconstrued it and claim that Francis Scott Key saw the former slaves who have become soldiers retreating and it put a smile on his, when in reality there is no evidence that said battalions where even at the battle in the first place. Also, "hireling and slave" was a common putdown to insult people who where deemed of working for a evil group

Love it. Great content. Time to click that patreon link.

Canada chill? They are reason why 30% of the Geneva Convention exists.

Haha the Trade reference @ 6:20 got me good

Fun fact: At the Battle of Thames in 1813 during this war, the Americans charged the British, and the British Army threw down their weapons, ran away and fled the battlefield, leaving their allies on the field alone, to get slaughtered by the Americans...

Excellent presentation! Good to learn this important history. Thank you.

I was born in Lewiston and had no idea it was previously burnt down during the war. I thought Lewiston was just some small insignificant town.

“The fur must flow” I’m dead

This war was an example of a rising power wanting to flex it’s muscle and an established power throwing it’s weight around. The fact that Britain could afford to send ships and troops to North America while at the same time going full tilt with Napoleon in Europe is impressive. Had they been able to focus all of their attention on us that war might have actually ended with a real winner.

17:45 you had me worried there for a second

I live in Amherstburg

I love the old Illinois territory😍😍

LOL that Dune reference

Excellent summery of this important but often forgotten war. A common nickname for this war in America is The War of Continued Independence.

Wow bro put some detail into this (I noticed the Hudson's Bay Company flag in Rupert's Land lmao) Also damn Britain that Québec act thing sure helped Catholics to swear allegiance to the crown. I'm sure no one else could have used a similarly modified oath..

Neither the Americans nor the Canadians nor the British won. America kicked Canada’s ass, Canada kicked America’s ass, Britain kicked America’s ass, America kicked Britain’s ass. It was a huge stalemate. Fighting that never wen’t anywhere.

Crocs are cool

When was this war again I kinda forgot

What part of Northern Ireland are you from?

Maybe I missed one minute in the video but... Where is the Battle of Châteauguay????

19:35 .... Play Ball

14:17 I don’t get your comment on the slavery line.

Can we all just agree that a chorus singing the American National Anthem is... WAAAYYY better, and reflecting of what Modern America stands for (a host of voices united in a common goal, the goal of proclaiming freedom, tolerance, and justice), than some Pop star showing off at the football game?... Lol

So You're telling Me that the singer from Modest Mouse is also a 19th century Canadian General?

8:06 oh, so that is why they call the burning of the white house a payback

1812 was a stalemate

Funny independence day easter egg

Today (Oct. 11, 2021) is Thanksgiving Day up here in Canada. I don't know if this was more than a coincidence, but I'd like to believe so. (P.S. Americans; A status quo peace is a victory for the defenders)

Just wondering, how did France get Louisiana in the first place?

Errr. I remember reading that the conflict around New Orleans was really about who was going to deal with the free Black Republic at Haiti. As both belligerents were terrified about the influence on their enslaved Africans...

do vids about estonian independence freedom war and other estonian history

Can you please please pretty please do a many mann episode on pakistan and indias history.please I will be eternally grateful to you

Ok I’m American and looking at the American side of the war the Navy seemed to hard carry

Did not know about the economical and industrial positives for America, always thought the war was just worthless apart from everyone able to brag about committing crimes against each other. Honestly, I feel there's a misconception about Canadians, though I can probably correlate to my habitation of Quebec, I've never heard anyone say the Canada won the war in 1812, nor Britain, but The United States of America. Though it has been a good few years since my schooling in Canadian history, so I could be misremembering.

Britain: seizing Americans * America: so you have chosen violence

American natives preferred the British over the modern American

why the war of 1812 was better than endgame and barbary wars

🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

"The fur must flow" Is that a Dune reference(

This whole war is basically Canada: yes I won! US: no you didn’t even exist then it was a war against the British UK: lier I wasn’t even there I was at war with France

And America was never attacked again...

Remastered versions look great... but I HATE the slower speed of the narration. I have to watch on 1.5x speed

I dont live far from Ogdenburg new york I learned some stuff what really happen on the ice

Rule Britannia

Besides the many soldiers who died in this pointless conflict the real losers were the Native American tribes. Britain pretty much agreed to simply abandon them in exchange for American concessions. And then one of the most shameful periods in American history began. I love my country but I am so ashamed of what we did to Native Americans. We even betrayed tribes that fought against the British with us.

I think it's so funny when Brits pretend like they were so good to Natives and the Natives loved them. The delusion of y'all sometimes is wild.

I think the canadians won

The War of 1812 had two effects. It confirmed Americans would not rejoin the British Empire. It created a Canadian identity.

You know, if you read the entire Star Spangled Banner (all 4 stanzas, not just the 1 we sing as our National Anthem) you realize that it is a very racist song/discriminates against several groups of people in violent manners, yet we sing it all the time as a pro-America song. Now, I'm not saying that we need to get rid of the National Anthem (since the 1st stanza is the least racist of them), but remember that the (overall) message of it and the flag is that we are all equal Americans citizens, and both it and the flag are a symbol of freedom for everyone. Context is important. During the War of 1812 (to early 1815), we were fighting against the British whom got runaway slaves to fight with them against Americans (in exchange for freedom), at the time we were also killing Native tribes and even tried (but failed) to invade Canada at 1 point, and Francis Scott Key himself was a slave owner/described "freemen" as just Caucasian males and no one else. Some of this is what he wrote in the lyrics while some of it is implied based on who he is/the situation he was in at the time of the war.

No me

The USA lost the War. The USA was not able to accomplish any of their objectives, they ended plead to Britain to hand over the US territories captured by Britain before Morning come in the treaty of ghent that's why most people don't know about the British revenge for American Revolutionary in history 😂😂

America, the land of the free. Exept healthcare.

Me, first

Canadian history before the 20th century is just... yikes.

As an amarican, we lost. Britain was disrespecting US and it might have been worth something internationally to invaded canida but we declared a war and gained nothing but dead.

Damn the narration of this guy makes me wanna travel back in time and fight the British myself lol

Ah yes America and Britain “allies” yea no

Canada lost (The American seized York/Toronto and burned in to the ground)

Fun fact the US lost

USA lost the war. USA was never able to accomplish any of their objectives.

Not just many Canadians, many brits know we won. And before someone cries “no Canada did” Canada where British , and at the time the majority of their army got 1812 was made up of British soldiers. America declared war on Britain and sued Britain for peace

Considering the creator's well known leftist anti-American leanings this came off as very even and fair handed. This is the kind of content that drew me to this channel in the first place.

But Canada look at this way some if another country that wants your land you can ask America to help and their most likely to comply if th guy running this crap show is smart

US could have gone when they conquered Canada... *MURICA! F YEAH!*

If your saying that Canada and Britain won the War of 1812, then your wrong because nobody won. Just because, Canada burned down the White House doesn't mean that they won the war. The war reached a STALEMATE and both sides (America and Britain, including Canada) made peace and likely.... became allies again? Anyway, nobody won the War of 1812 because of a simple fair stalemate but you can kind of also say that America won the War of 1812 since America did more efficiently and in today's terms, America could beat the two nations (Britain and Canada) any day. Lots of people joke about Canada sending its "moose cavalry" but even if moose (deers) are actually stronger than eagles (birds), eagles can literally swoop down and try to get the deer's weak spots. The national animal of the United Kingdom (the lion) is stronger than the eagle but can do the same thing, they are both carnivores while a eagle might prefer fresh fish but a lion definitely meat. So, yeah nobody won the War of 1812. Also can we just take the time to say that the Internet is completely wrong about the wars, that America lost? like the Korean War, which people say that America lost when nobody won. South Korea's allies didn't win and North Korea's allies didn't win. No side won. It was a STALEMATE. Also, if people are gonna criticize me about "stalemate" then a stalemate is "A situation in which further action or progress by opposing or competing parties seems impossible". Or in the chess definition. "A position counting as a draw, in which a player is not in check but cannot move except into check". The "chess" definition kind of makes sense since what i have been saying that America, Britain, and Canada reached a smooth standstill or a stalemate, so finally, NEITHER SIDE WON THE WAR OF 1812 :)

To this today, I still believe that Canada should be apart of our union. It is a shame that there is a giant gap between Alaska and the mainland.

Great story of the war of 1812 , BUT the story of BALTOMORE MD. has more to it and was more important then you tell , you forgot this : While the battle ultimately was a British victory for Canada, it had several key other effects .Not like the men in Bladensburg WHO RAN AWAY. DUNDALD , MD slowed British land forces' advance on Baltimore, had a great impact on American morale, and resulted in a large number of British casualties including the death of their commander, Major General Robert Ross taking out by a young man , and that's what held up the britts for the men on HAMPSTEAD HILL to set up and held out and sent the britts back to there ships in NORTHPOINT. so they stop them from entering the city , MAYBE YOU SHOULD TALK A LITTLE MORE ABOUT BALTIMORE. after all Baltimore and Washington may still been in the britts hand's and like New Orleans , who knows if the britts would have giving it back.. P.S The pic you show of the guns in Balto. are of Federal Hill witch was the last hope if the britts got PASSED Fort McHenry. so as you can see Baltimore was ready and waiting for the britts and didn't fail The UNITED STATES
