This is our WW1 compilation video, originally released in 2016. Unfortunately, the original was demonetized and made 18+ by RU-vid, presumably because of the very few (and carefully chosen) photographs of war dead (no actual reason was given). This was frustrating not only for the obvious financial reasons, but because the video was intended as an educational resource. The video has now been re-edited to remove some of the more explicit photographs. Hopefully RU-vid will allow this version to remain available to those of all ages seeking to learn more about this important episode of history.

The most amazing thing is that basically you're looking at a map the whole entire time, but the animations, music, sound effects and pictures make it feel like you're watching a movie. And the narration is my favorite type (accent, voice, tone, pace). Thank you for these great videos!
I don't know why they sent their own soldiers, mostly civilians who enlisted in the last hour. They should have caught people from their colonies like Africa, India and all, maybe 500 million of them and sent them to fight their enemies with bare hands.
That was probably the reason for the war...depopulation! Plus the women going to work to replace men and reverse and redefine a societal norm. More than likely all manipulated and brought to you by the globalist illuminatti.
@@SC-oh9ol in my opinion other than what they did to the jews ww1 looks worse... I mean no general knew what they where doing in this new type of warfare it was an actual meat grinder of trying to cross the trench and getting killed by machine guns. Ww2 was in a way a bit more honorable than being eaten alive in trenches by rats or your toes falling off . Just my opinion if I had a choice to live trough one I would chose ww2 a thousand times

@@ninobrownish They usually do it to get remonitized. RU-vid demonitizes it because 1 or 2 100 year old picture in the video have some injury or "gore" in it. RU-vid be fickle like that
@dimensional X First I don't know why you're commenting this on my comment. Second Ottoman Empire brings in the middle East and Germany had many colonies in Africa and Asia that were involved in the conflict. Plus most of the world was neutral until the end of the war when it was clear the entente were going to win
Not only is this the best WW1 Documentary I've ever seen but this is the best Documentary period... (In my opinion of course) Showing this mainly on the map is PERFECT... I wish you guys would do a WW2 Doc the exact same way, SO EDUCATIONAL. You all deserve some kind of an award for this piece...
This is the best way to really understand any wars in our history, showing what actually happened in a sequence one can visually see. Reading it in a textbook is nothing compared to this. Thank you
@@colinmcclymont USA executed 2 wars. Just because they join the war in very end of it doesn't make USA the victors(after years of war, USA send fresh troops and suplies to the winning side, and puff USA wins...). Oh and BTW berlin was taken by USSR. So nazism was defeated by Russia. USA defeated Japan. USA didn't win WW I nor WWII. It's like mike tyson going against holyfield after the latter was fighting for 20 rounds. Would you call tyson a victor?! lmao
@@colinmcclymont 8 out of every 10 German soldiers in ww2 were killed by the Russians.....fact. It's weird though, Germany and Russia split up Poland in the beginning of the war. Russia was not on the allies side at the beginning.
@@CaptainRonAhoy it is weird, but it was inevitable eventually russia would have invaded germany once build up more meanwhile germany suffering casualties against the allies
36:34 The Allies have advanced 10 miles at the cost of 600,000 casualties. German losses are about 450,000. The Allies reassure themselves that this is a winning strategy, because at this rate, Germany will run out of men first. INSANITY
This is the evolution of old History Channel content we all enjoyed. Incredible, with this level of production value, this is just freely available on youtube.
The fact that there were numerous battles where BOTH sides lost 250 thousand people in a matter of days is staggering. Thats such an incomprehensible level of human misery that we just look at it like a statistic and cant even relate to what it means. An entire war fought over essentially nothing
@@spammergenerico5679 This one was particularly stupid. WWII at least had a clear enemy with an ideology that needed to be defeated; this was just the pride and stubbornness of the upper class combined with a lack of empathy for those beneath them.
It's not very surprising, the battle of Cannae had 70000 casualties, the battle of Leipzig had 130000 and those battles were fought with stoneage warfare technology compared to WWI.
@@MiguelDS5547 the battle of Leipzig was fought with large amounts of artillery and was only in the early 1800s, the battle of Cannae is likely over exaggerated and most deaths didn’t occur during direct combat.
The numbers of casualties in one battle is mind boggling. One batter was almost the total number of killed in the entire American Cival War. Absolutely insane.
God Damn this is one of the best documentaries I have ever watched on RU-vid. 10 out of 10. I came here knowing very little about WW1 and I've left feeling like I'm a historian. A masterclass in simplicity, animation, story telling, audio selection and mastering. Can't wait to see what else you have on the channel. Easiest sub I've ever placed.
@@kasadam85 It was barely even discussed in the video. No need to call me a sheep because I am unclear of your position. Me looking it up does not clarify how you see it as misrepresented.
Same bro 😭. But it should start with Italy taking Ethiopia, Japan attacks china, and Germany taking Austria and the Sudetenland in Czechoslovakia (Czech republic and slovakia today)
Your World War I documentary is a masterpiece of storytelling. The way you use a simple map to transport us into the heart of historical events is nothing short of brilliant. The combination of engaging animations, well-chosen music, and the immersive sound effects turns what could have been a standard documentary into an enthralling cinematic experience. Your narration, with its captivating accent and perfect pacing, brings these events to life in a way that's both educational and deeply moving. This is hands down the best historical documentary I've ever seen. I'm looking forward to more amazing content from your channel. Keep up the incredible work!
Great my arse, read all these and refute my points if you can. 1- Ottoman didn't declare war on Russia at all rather Russia declared war on Ottoman after German pre-dreadnoughts bombarded Russian ports. Those two pre-dreadnoughts were in mediterranean when WW1 began and they took refuge in Ottoman. Germany gifted them to Ottoman but they were still operated by German crew and they bombarded Russian ports without any involvement of the rest of Ottoman navy. Then Russia declared on war Ottoman, even if such an attack didn't happen most probably Russia was still going to attack Ottoman as the whole point of them joining the war wasn't capturing Prussia from Germany or ''helping Serbia'' at all rather capturing Bosphorus from Ottoman.. 2- 1914 Russian territory gains from Ottoman and how they supported Armenian population to revolt are completely ignored for obvious reasons!! Rather told as ''for accusation of cooperating with the enemy'' but in reality here is an Armenian official saying they literally acted as a Russian proxy because they thought Russian empire was going to liberate them. How they began preparations for the revolt EVEN BEFORE Ottoman joined WW1!! How Turks wanted to confer but they refused because they believed they were going to win, literally everything is there but ofc you can't find such ''irrelevant details'' in western sources: www.tc-america.org/files/Katchaznouni.pdf 3- After Armenians revolted in 1914 eastern Anatolia was fallen into a civil war that both Turkish and Armenian civilians were targetting each others. Hundreds of thousands Turkish civilians were killed during ''Armenian resistance'' or ''self-defense'' which is again completely ignored for obvious reasons. After such high casualties Ottoman decided to displace Armenian population into Syria and Lebanon which were still parts of Ottoman but far away from front lines with Russian empire that Armenians were getting their supplies from!! But ofc it is again completely ignored and acted like Ottoman sent them into deserts to die somehow even if in Syria there isn't any large desert because euphrates running through MIDDLE OF THE COUNTRY!! Also Turkey nor even Ottoman never actually refused there were atrocities and dozens of Ottoman officials faced trial and got punishment including an Ottoman governer but care to guess how many Armenians faced any kind of trial for targetting civilians?? ZERO!! And to cover up this fact Armenian atrocities are always ignored by so called ''humanist'' west.. 4- Russians signed armistice and peace agreements with Germany and Austro-hungarian empire not Ottoman and the fighting continued in eastern Turkey and Caucasus!! Ottoman launched a massive offensive in 1918 and not only liberated entire eastern Turkey also pushed into Caucasus and northern Iran. Liberating Azerbaijani cities including Urmia, Tabriz, Baku which were under Armenian militia and Russian and British control and planned to be added to the new Armenian country. Ottoman forces even pushed into Dagestan and cleared entire Caucasus from both British and Russian forces which is how ALL Caucasus countries could declare their indepedence from Russian empire in 1918 but ofc once again this ''irrelevant detail'' was completely ignored. The red army invaded Caucasus again in 1920 but they didn't want to risk another war with Turkey while the most bloody civil war in human history was still ongoing so they signed treaty of Kars with Turkey and other Caucasus countries recognizing their independence and borders. (Treaty of Kars ceded both Nakhchivan and Karabakh to Azerbaijan not stalin etc like some morons from the west claims) 5- 1:03:17 this was the most ridiculous and softened version of treaty of sevres i've ever seen which was even ignoring Greek parts!! Here is the actual map of Anatolia if Turkish war of indepedence didn't happen ofc: 64.media.tumblr.com/e78dcc8931fb8b8e0b56f788494f5949/91d002ff3d67afa1-93/s1280x1920/e3dc3de709aa48e60a078c31399a33641848729b.png PS: Some people might think im defending my country etc BSs while i couldn't care less what westerners think about us rather im only adding the missing facts that so ''truthful'' westerners couldn't mention...

I'm sure that this leaves a lot out, but I know that in June 1919, the remnants of the German Navy were taken to the north of Scotland to salvage the steel from the ships. There were barely enough German naval soldiers to run the ships under Allied control, but rather than see their ships scrapped for their enemy's gain, the German naval soldiers mutinied and scuttled the last bits of the German fleet and died several months after the Versailles Treaty. Many consider THEM to be the last casualties of the First World War.
Some slightly deeper explanations: 1. Italy never really wanted to be allied with Austria-Hungary. Although Italy and Germany had been co-belligerents in prior wars during their unifications, Austria-Hungary had been the main opponent of Italian unification, and still controlled territory near Venice that Italy believed properly belonged to them. But in the 1880s, Italy and France were trying to colonize the same parts of Africa, and Italy was concerned that they might wind up at war with France- a war they couldn't win. So they reluctantly joined the Triple Alliance. By 1900, the danger of war with France had passed and it became quite clear that Italy wanted out of the alliance. To wit, Austria-Hungary actually drew up plans to invade Italy and seriously considered doing it in 1911. They didn't, however, and when Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia, Italy finally had their escape hatch and pulled out of the Alliance. 2. The Schlieffen Plan actually called for a tiny token force to guard eastern Germany while the majority of the German Army invaded France via Belgium and the Netherlands. But the German chief of staff at the war's start didn't believe the plan could actually work so he changed it, notably that he left more forces in the east to face Russia (despite how badly Russia had fared in their recent war with Japan), and did not invade the Netherlands. So as it played out, Germany bogged down in Belgium, and was stopped at the Marne as shown in the video. Would Schlieffen's plan have worked better? There's no way to know, but Nazi Germany did do a version of it in 1940 and it was wildly successful. Although it also involved driving a lot of tanks through the Ardennes and tanks weren't invented yet when Schlieffen came up with his plan. 3. The collapse of Austria-Hungary was actually already starting as the Battle of Vittorio Veneto was being fought. It was pretty clear that the empire wasn't going to win the war, so Hungary's parliament voted to declare independence on October 17. Within days of the battle's end, what would soon become Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia also declared independence (on October 28th and 29th, respectively). When Austria-Hungary signed the armistice at Villa Giusti on November 3rd, the empire was already shattered. On November 11th, the Emperor issued a declaration that (deep paraphrasing) he was going to allow Austria to become a constitutional monarchy, but the writing was on the wall and everyone just took it as an abdication (even though he had deliberately avoided abdicating). Austria immediately became a republic and banned the Habsburgs. The Emperor also happened to be the King of Hungary, so when Hungary later became a monarchy again (it's complicated), he tried to take his throne back but nobody accepted it and Hungary became a kingdom without a king- an old Austro-Hungarian Navy admiral became the "regent" and ruled Hungary until he was overthrown by the Nazis near the end of World War II. Anyway... this is why Austria and Hungary signed separate peace treaties after the war- they were already separate countries by that point.
@@True_Blood_89 yeah just a bunch of hippie communists smoking weed and begging for government intervention in every aspect of our lives (can't believe that those people now control everything). I'm all for war if it means putting my life on the line to stop commie dictators slaughering millions of innocent people and I'm proud to be a descendent of those that gave their lives in service to that very ideal. Only the weak sit by and do nothing. If you keep hiding from shit in the world eventually the world comes to your front door.
I worry that the allies humiliated Germany too much at the end of ww1, taking such large portions of land on all sides (not to mention what did Africa do to deserve being served up like a piece of pie) corners of their land they took national pride in, it just sowed too much hate and resentment over the following decade and a half among its citizens. It's not excuse for what they did during ww2 but I think there's a lesson to be learned. If you are going to allow a power to continue to exist, it might not be a good idea to beat them down and leave them with such shame they cannot let it go. They had way too much incentive to not let it end that way. It's sad because maybe of all the needless slaughter on all sides especially what would start at the end of the 30's.
I was only looking at a screen with maps and pictures but my hands turned cold in just 15 minutes of watching. The execution, narration and music is so good. I can't help but feel emotional in the lost of too many lives. I knew WW1 happened but I only understand the events of WW2 now I know a lot more. Thank you.
It really is amazing. But every time he mentions the number of dead after a battle i get shivers. It really is incredible that people allowed this style of warfare to happen. It's not even fighting anymore its just throwing each other into a hale of bullets, hoping for the best.
No, an enormous number of men but not a whole generation. In fact if you look at the European population graphs for 1900 to 1930 you wouldn't be able to tell that a major war had taken place in Europe. Difficult to believe but true. As an example in Britain there were 7 million households in 1914. 700,000 men were killed, so one in 10 households may have lost a male member on average. Though truly horrific that is not a whole generation.
This was intense just watching. Even with all the pictures, I doubt the overall devastation in WW1 can ever be put into a sense. With all that's currently going on in the world right now. I hope world leaders would keep history in heart and mind. Blessings and positivity on Earth. ✌️🙏
You are the reason my love for History flourished even more as a younger lad. First Alexander the Great, then the Russian Revolution*, the Napoleonic Wars, and now World War 1. Some of the most significant events in world history, told with absolute beautiful writing and quality. Not all Hero's wear capes. Some just make damn good educational videos for all. Keep doing what you do! Edit: Forgot to add another insanely impactful historical event that you covered amazingly.
Alexander the Great is the greatest man who ever lived. His story is 2nd to none. I'm obsessed with history and always have been. Alexander is the GOAT, when I die and enter the after life I'm searching for Alexander
-Video shows real history and exposes the horrors of pointless conflict. RU-vid: demonised. We can't let this influence the younger generation. -Naked Yoga. RU-vid: I see no problem with this.
I really hate youtube policy. Not only because of the childish mentality, but also because of how inconsistent it is, depending on the subject: Degenerate stuff is okay, but history nooooo. That would be too harmful for children, wtf ? All they want is an ignorant society whose only priority is to know what gender they are amongst the 56 new ones.
The casualties are hard to wrap your head around some times, imagine losing nearly 200k men in a day across all allies 8n a single charge, all to capture 10 miles of trenches...it's insane
I feel the same way about the battle of Kursk in WWII. In almost 4 months the Germans lost as many men as the Americans did in the whole war, both theaters, about 650,000 men. The Russians lost 1.1 million in the battle of Kursk. Both of the Great Wars casualties are hard to wrap your head around.
@@thurman5342 if you look at the actual numbers in each battle and the equipment involved more men were in the field fighting in First World War than in any battle on the western front in WW2. Prior to attacking a :1,000 guns fired almost non stop for three to five days to soften up a small front of about three miles. Today’s armies battle to put a 1,000 guns across complete armies.
Impossible for us to in America outside some kind of nuclear war. Our largest in a day EVER was in our own civil war at Antietam, which I believe was half that number. The only way for Americans to understand WWI would be to look at our closest equivalent, Vietnam, and ask what it would be like if basically all 18-30-year-old men in the 1960s had been drafted and wiped out in the war... that's what Europe dealt with.
Um, that was fantastic. That was the most comprehensive and detail oriented overview of world war I ever. The visuals were so helpful. Wow. This is the kind of content that actually matters to people. Thank you for your thoughtful and well executed video.
It's just a convenient occasion that we consider the assassination of Franz Ferdinand as a beginning of the war. There were revolts and wars in the region before 1914th. The true reasons were the intention of European powers to review the borders in Europe and colonies, to expand. It's like you can predict now that WW3 will begin in the Arab region. If it's supposed to begin
This is such an amazing video. Beautiful explanation. I would learn more from taking notes on this video alone than I learned in my quarter-long history unit.
This is very well done, the maps help a lot, the narrator is very clear, it sticks to facts, it's engaging without the use of inflammatory, controversial or biased comments.
@@chriskalogrias926 I think you could make the case of not comparing percentages based on world population in between each era, and seeing the casualties individualized. Alexander’s campaigns lasted 10 years or so? In 5 months, more husbands, brothers, sons and friends were lost than 10 years worth of killings. Regardless of the number it represents.
@@chriskalogrias926 I mean its still crazy to think about the fatal count of Vietnam was roughly 58k and that was the casualty count of a couple hours for a single battle in ww1 so i mean the comparison stands.
I'm a 5th grade teacher. We have included the original (and now presumably revised) video since 2018. We show the first 20-30 minutes and the last 10 minutes. Our major learning goals are to become familiar with the basic facts and imagery of WWI that set it apart from other wars, especially WWII, because 5th graders usually have a very limited sense of historical timelines. The video also supports our targets for learning global geography and the "one thing leads to another" course of history. The restricted notice at the beginning looks alarming, but handled with respect for history there is little to be concerned about content-wise. There is no sex or profanity. There is no political angling. There is grainy, black-and-white imagery of war, both still and motion. Within these, there is next to nothing graphic and certainly gratuitous. I'm fairly conservative as a parent, and I don't feel concerned about sharing this video with my 5th graders each year.
I am shocked that I spent an hour mainly looking at a world map and was enthralled by what it was just saying while moving flags and ship images back and forth. Background music was pretty much the same throughout and was captivating.
G.K. Chesterton once wrote: "The wisest thing in the world is to cry out before you are hurt. It is no good to cry out after you are hurt; especially after you are mortally hurt. People talk about the impatience of the populace; but sound historians know that most tyrannies have been possible because men moved too late. it is often essential to resist a tyranny before it exists"
Tell that to the radical Lefties and Never Trumpers who claimed Trump was Hitler. Now they bow to a corporate oligarchy and give praise when their Rights and livelihoods are taken away.
Wow! I love this series. I usually get incredibly bored by history channel docs where there’s minute-long dramatic pauses, repeating the same info, and emotional interjections. This one has packed so much info into one minute that my mere mortal meatbrain has to pause and rewind several times. Great stuff.
I have the utmost respect and appreciation for your wonderful and distinguished posts that overflow with accurate and useful information. A wonderful work that deserves respect and admiration to a large extent. I wish you good luck and success in all your endeavors. Please, please, do not stop posting more. All admiration, appreciation and pride
I learned more about WW1 in this hour than I had in my 47 years of life. This was amazing. Please tell me you guys plan on a full year by year just like this of WW2 and maybe Vietnam? Thanks so much for the knowledge.
Don't believe every thing you see here it is all biased you need to research even more for the truth if you interested to find the really what's went down
If you're interested in possibly the best war history documentary series ever made, in my opinion, check out "battlefield" there are I think 5 seasons on world war 2 and a separate series in one season called battlefield: Vietnam (not to be confused with the video game) They are absolutely fantastic, they go over the politics, disposition of belligerents, the generals, equipment, formations, everything, they're a bit dry with not much dramatic flair but I personally prefer that style, just straight up history without all the fluff.
I'm glad you were able to edit and re-upload. I watched the original numerous times. It's what peaked my internet in WW1. My great grandfather was gassed in France
"600,000 Allied casualties, 450,000 German. At this rate british taught that they will win the war as Germany will run out men first". French and Indian soldiers: 👁👁
Well now that the original video has been taken down I guess I should say this again. This is the video that made me start loving history and now I am (in my opinion) one of the best in my class. Its one of the few things I'm good at, and I owe my success almost entirely to epic history. Thank you.
balfour declaration. 1917. a mandate for the creation of israel. Hundreds of millions of white Christians died in WW1 and WW2 to enable its creation for Rothchild. no wars 1,2 ... no israel in 48. monarchs were a thorn in their side. the czar especially was hated for certain reasons. our central bankers funded the communist bolsheviks in russia to take him out at which point they wanted america into the war. . also playing a major role in the treaty of versailles that would almost guarantee another war. nothing in this world just happens. What we see now with the pandmic didnt start just two years ago. Privately owned fed came in 1912 USA for 3rd and final time, 1913 here in Canada. We as a nation were debt free prior to this. Who owns fed? 911 was staged to take out remaining countries that were outside our central banking system. Apparently controlling shares in large companies all trace back to vanguard. who owns it? Who is behind WEF. this battle we are in now started with a pre-emptive strikes of disease and injections. the war involves digital id and cashless society. a war that will see us as fodder (A consumable, often inferior item.) We have been warned. JFK / Communist manifesto/certain protocals/agenda 2030/great reset. democracy is easily infiltrated and controlled theres only one group that has been truly international, having forces throughout the world. they have been behind all wars for who knows how long. one arm of it is now named the wef. from having nation states fighting each other to further their agenda to now dissolving nations into a one world gov under their control. you will never learn the truth watching a history channel video.
Hi @Epic History TV!! I've watched many World War Documentaries but I've failed to finish all of them because I get a bit confused or I get drowsy midway. Your documentary of world war I is the first worldwar documentary I have ever finished watching and still wide awake. This is because you provided a MAP in every movement each country makes (like in chess and turn-based) which really helped me see and understand the events that took place in a timely order. I love this type of documentary and I appreciate it very much. I am wishing and hoping that you also make a similar type of documentary for World War II. Godspeed @Epic History TV
Battlefield 1 is such a damn classic of a video game that it immersed me into WW1 and got me really, really hooked with the events that took place within that timeline.

Fun fact: There is a city in Canada, Ontario that was called "New Berlin" but during the first world war, it was seen as odd to have that as a name.. and upon hearing of the death of Lord Kitchener, took up the name Kitchener as a sign of British patriotism and anti-German sentiment.
Finally, I will be able, after all these years, to understand World War I, the great war. Even with this fantastic presentation, I'll probably have to watch it at least twice, to get it all straight in my head. It's just amazingly complicated.
These are exactly the types of historical War vids I enjoy watching bc not only does it hv good narrative but the visuals also show how things panned out. Keep these awesome detailed vids coming!

This is one of the most amazing and informative videos I have seen, along with many Britons I lost Kinsmen to this mess and have watched many videos trying to understand it all, this has brought me a little closer. I loved the style of the video in giving information rather than lots of pictures and newsreels. Thankyou for creating this masterpiece.
This was the most amazing history lesson I've seen. Sad that RU-vid would do this. Also it's awful to imagine so many young men's lives lost. The incredible sacrifices. I wish we could have built a land fit for heroes.

Unfortunately I just re-watched it and got no ads. Armenian genocide is just one of those untouchable topics, because Turkey is still in denial to this day, just like Japanese atrocities in China during WWII. It's never the WW battle videos that get demonetized, it's the aspects which remain politically 'controversial' to this day (by that I mean certain major markets are in denial of their past) ... I can watch videos about serial killers sadistically torturing their victims, with images of murdered people and get an ad for the latest double-cheeseburger from McD's, but if you try to touch something like this it's no-go. Guarantee if you cut the Armenian genocide bit they'd let it slide.
