small question that you probably awnsered a thousand times: what made you make all theis cool vidoes that bring history in a fun way that we all know and understand? Music!
Any chance you could do more Chinese videos? this is the only 1 I can find. How about Qin Shi Huangdi, the examination system, or Wu Zetian, just to name a few quick ideas?
@lipglosschaos I think Mrs.B has already done a great job. Although not professional, she sings better than some pop singer. And they don't have much budget . Either way, we love listen to Mrs.B's voice.
its fun watching this. im chinese and at school we have two history class - "chinese history" and "western history (basically European stuff...)". our chinese history class is really more like politic lesson. they never told us how normal people life's were. they just told us the king's name, the year, they important nobles and what reformation they did blah blah blah. i feel like you're mocking them...and that feels good. haha.
@BlueUmbrellaGirl It is rare to meet someone in hong kong that love history like me, i think hong kong teenagers just don't like history. i think people living is heavily influenced but politic, if the dynasty were falling, the people living standard were falling too. And about the western history, the ''西史'' we said, should be world history. I enjoy having chinese history lesson., but i don't like the way world history teach , medieval history is too simple,(the reason i found this channel).
@vault34overseer =D i agree~~~~chinese history is always about medieval stuff, its the prefect example of "history repeating itself" ~~~~i'm a super bookworm myself, and i love english novels. i guess that's the reason why i love "western history"/world history so much. its easier to understand than other subjects.
@BlueUmbrellaGirl ''Dynasty they come and they go'' Since Chinese Empire don't have any other country(expect those barbarian) that can compete with she until 1840.In xia ,shang ,western zhou, keep ''another clan takes control'',start from qin, it fall in the Dynastic cycle, the power of the emperor even increase slowly. Although europe is split into states after charlemange, conflict between emperor, noble,parliament, pope , merchant city really speed up process of modernisation.
@vault34overseer yeah!! age of exploration really speed those european up. our chinese history is way too ancient~~~people as old as 黄帝, for example =D
@BlueUmbrellaGirl Age of exploration is only a stage of modernisation,after renaissance, and thanks to the tech that arabian left after conquer Iberia , portugal and spain can start exploringafter they set up their nation during Reconquista.they set up Colony to rob.They rob using force, so they fail. Netherland and Britain export, develop agriculture to get money to develop. Netherland invented capital and Britain start the industrial revolution .
@vault34overseer what i want to say is that chinese history is longer than others, for example the oldest king 黄帝. compared to other places' history chinese is one of the longest. i guess that's the reason why there are so much boring medival stuff.
@BlueUmbrellaGirl I think it is because China rarely meet other civiliazation.Mesopotamia, ancient egyptian, greco- roman, and persian live near Mediterranean Sea. Ancient indians disappeared quickly, and aryan that replace them is came form the west. And arabian also create a great empire from spain to Indus river. Only China is isloated.
From some of your previous response, i guess you are a form 2 student,.The form 2 chinese history is rather dull, since it is mainly politics.
@vault34overseer i dunno if im form two. i mean, around form two. our school skipped year 6 (y6 is form 1) so i dunno what grade i am when people ask me. i just tell them im 13. anyway yeah, they're all politics =D
oh, and isn't exploration one of the reason for renaissance? maybe that wasn't the word, but during the crusades didn't they sort of brought backg arabian, greek and roman stuff?
Interesting thing about the phrase "the Dao is the way" is that Dao is not just a metaphysical concept that can literally mean "way", but it is also a kind of sword. So that phrase could be taken out of context to mean 'the sword is the way' - a philosophy that could easily be taken to define most of history.
Awesome. I use this for class, keep up with the historic videos!! Im teaching 20th century wars at the moment! hopefully you have something on WWi and WWii, pacific war, cold war and vietnam war!
Can I ask, where did you get the backdrop for this clip? Also, it is not just secondary school teachers that like this, I am using your black death clip for a senior-level class on diseases. Just brilliant.
Thank you so much, this video (along with your others but this one in particular) has helped me a lot remembering which dynasty did what. Good luck everyone taking the ap test tomorrow!
@sarahdoodle14 What you don't understand is that these are Exactly 2 Hawaiian History Teachers, MrsB & MrH who make all these videos. (Except for 1 assistance from MrJ, in Mansa Musa - which you mustn't miss!) In several videos Mrs.B is even split in 3 (Martin Luther, Thomas Aquinas). So they had no Chinese person available! But MrsB is a chameleon who fits in anywhere. Keep watching: you'll learn lots, and enjoy some great music along the way. Take care.
Brilliant... Im a true fan of "historyteachers" why were all the history and geography teachers at my school so dull and boring, nasty and vain, when history is indeed none of these.
I love it how I'm learning stuff, even from subjects I had paid attention in classes - and having fun! If my plans work and I become a teacher I'm going to link some of your videos to my students - and perhaps even make a couple of videos myself. Thank you for doing this and opening a new way to use multimedia in school!
@historyteachers alright thanks for the quick reply. I was just curious. This one, along with Macedonia, Henry the VIII and the Plague ones are among my favorites. Keep up the great work :)
@Gekishinken Yuan- see our reference to Kublai K. We didn't do Qing because we focused on early/ancient (see taggline)...Qing needs its own video - or 2.
As Chinese, I learn these history hard way, remember each dynasty's years and empire by force, no fun at all. I wish you were teaching me the history back then. This is an vivid example of effective education is all about bring knowledge to student in the format which is inspiring and insteresting. Very creative. Thank you.
The period of the Three Kingdoms and Jin Dynasity are also very important. Some key virtues in Chinese culture, such as bravery, loyalty, disobedience with those in power are from that time. Sad to see them missing.
What I want to say is the kids from 'Tiger Mother' Chua family will never be able to create something like this in their area. I will never want to be her student, what kinda professor is that? She doesn't represent Chinese, her ancestors are Chinese Malaysia immigrants, we all know what class of people will go Malaysia in the old times, they don't present traditional culture.
If you and Madona got together and "re-did" this thing together, it would go gold faster than you can say "Chinese Dynasty".... Keep the backgrounds, just add the 2 of you to the foreground. I wonder if Madona could keep up with you?

I love your work! Nicely done. As a Taiwanese I had to study Chinese history from elementary school to high school, was requested to keep all the events took place in over 2000 years in mind. The song simplified the history but it is a better way to intrigue students attention. Excellent!
OMG!! I just wanna show my great admiration for your great work!! This is AMAZING! I wish I were your student><. By the way, I'm from Taiwan, and I have studied Chinese history too. This is the most interesting way to learn history for sure!! Your students are really blessed and you are really talented. 5 thumbs up!!
I don't know much bout shihuangdi, or chinas gory history. however i really love this song i hope you have more coming along. you know unfortunately there will be few, that will throw shame and curse at you. i still give a loud applause for a good parody of madonna. lol love the vid sweety!
@Laceykat66 a while back, someone commented they weren't historically accurate (well, of course not!) - I don't have everything at my disposal, but we try to be artistic and give a feeling of the topic
as a chinese person in a chinese household in..... Canada, from what I learnt from my cultural upbringing (it's customary to learn our people's history), all I could say is..... why did you leave out qing and cultural revolution? You're perspective is amazing.
@VWYL900802 i think the video excluded periods where china was occupied by foreign regimes, that is probably why none of the foreign dynasties that used a chinese title is listed.
i know chinese have a particular way of interpretation though.
@zoossh manchuians are not considered foreigners (they were rooted from either somewhere north or somewhere in the mongols). the qipao (the chinese long dress) is actually an altered version of the long dress in the imperial courts back in the qing (qi in qipao is actually in reference to qi people, another word for Manchurians in chinese).
at the time of invasion of ming china, they are foreigners (wai zu), regarded by the chinese at that time, not by ppl today. that is more factual than how ppl thinks 400 years later today. alternatively, if we use the modern meaning to say that chinese is a amalgam of different races inclusive of all the conquest of the manchu, then china and chinese only exist from 1644, or 1582 from jurchen khanate, or 1127 when jin destroy north song - i dun think any chinese agrees on this though.
@VWYL900802 In fact, manchuians WERE considered as foreigners. Well, not that kind of foreigners like American or Japanese to Chinese people. But they weren't regarded as a part of Chinese people. Like @zoossh said, they were considered as "wai zu". Their cultures, languages and traditions were different from us( I'm Chinese). There were lots of "wai zu" in the Chinese history but only Mongols and Manchuians invaded and ruled China.
@AnnaRosieDay that was during the early qing dynasty. but, like I said, the "qipao" (long dress) is a manchurian dress and both of the mongols and manchus, just like every other conquered dynasty, didn't get accepted too fast. there are 56 (or more) different cultures in chinese. and 120 languages (and more) in the country. to say that the manchus and mongols are not chinese is like saying white people are americans and colored people aren't.

Early on everywhere you turned was chaos for over three hundred years
Legend says xia kingdom was first to appear About them little is known
Along came Shang a farming society Left us bronze and some oracle bones They venerated their ancestors so, it’s called Qing-ming. Then along Zhou
craft50snape 2 months ago 3
-chorus
Zhou kings weren’t divine, they had to obey The mandate of heaven or else
Nature might send a great disaster your way, no one to blame but yourself
Invasion, rebellions, then your dynasty falls Another clan takes control
Unless you mind the 5 relationships, A new philosophy, by Kong Fu-zi, Confucius
-chorus
Civil war would sour Zhou’s control Qin would seize power.
Roads and money, build a wall. Legalism made lots of laws
Practical,Punished all, So everybody hated him
craft50snape 2 months ago 3
-chorus
Qin ruled by shihuangdi strictest of the dynasties
Liiu Bang with peasant brawn overthrew then created Han
Northern invasion, civil war, 300 years of blood and gore
Sui stepped up to boost morale-forced to build the grand canal
Tang gave government exams and gave peasants back some land
Li Bo, Du Fu wrote their thoughts,Artisins made porcelain pots
Song conqueredby Kublai Khan
Mongols beatby Zhu Yuanzhang
Ming worked hard to build a wall, but they too, like all before would fall

I love your work! Nicely done. As a Taiwanese I had to study Chinese history from elementary school to high school, was requested to keep all the events took place in over 2000 years in mind. The song simplified the history but it is a better way to intrigue students attention. Excellent!

Sorry the costumes disappoint, @jhameiagoh - we have zero budget so all the clothes are from my existing wardrobe

I wish I had half your wardrobe at MY disposal.

@Laceykat66 a while back, someone commented they weren't historically accurate (well, of course not!) - I don't have everything at my disposal, but we try to be artistic and give a feeling of the topic

@historyteachers And you do a wonderful job. Please keep it up and let the "small" criticisms roll off your back.
You have obviously hit a popular nerve judging by all the positive feedback you have received. Keep it up.

I think the red dress in this video is really beautiful and it looks authentic as well, so a good job on that!

as a chinese person in a chinese household in..... Canada, from what I learnt from my cultural upbringing (it's customary to learn our people's history), all I could say is..... why did you leave out qing and cultural revolution? You're perspective is amazing.

@VWYL900802 i think the video excluded periods where china was occupied by foreign regimes, that is probably why none of the foreign dynasties that used a chinese title is listed.
i know chinese have a particular way of interpretation though.

@zoossh yeah, as in They were ALWAYS China and never NOT China and always owned everything and never were occupied. heeheeha.

@zoossh manchuians are not considered foreigners (they were rooted from either somewhere north or somewhere in the mongols). the qipao (the chinese long dress) is actually an altered version of the long dress in the imperial courts back in the qing (qi in qipao is actually in reference to qi people, another word for Manchurians in chinese).
VWYL900802 1 year ago
at the time of invasion of ming china, they are foreigners (wai zu), regarded by the chinese at that time, not by ppl today. that is more factual than how ppl thinks 400 years later today. alternatively, if we use the modern meaning to say that chinese is a amalgam of different races inclusive of all the conquest of the manchu, then china and chinese only exist from 1644, or 1582 from jurchen khanate, or 1127 when jin destroy north song - i dun think any chinese agrees on this though.
zoossh 1 year ago
@VWYL900802 In fact, manchuians WERE considered as foreigners. Well, not that kind of foreigners like American or Japanese to Chinese people. But they weren't regarded as a part of Chinese people. Like @zoossh said, they were considered as "wai zu". Their cultures, languages and traditions were different from us( I'm Chinese). There were lots of "wai zu" in the Chinese history but only Mongols and Manchuians invaded and ruled China.

@AnnaRosieDay that was during the early qing dynasty. but, like I said, the "qipao" (long dress) is a manchurian dress and both of the mongols and manchus, just like every other conquered dynasty, didn't get accepted too fast. there are 56 (or more) different cultures in chinese. and 120 languages (and more) in the country. to say that the manchus and mongols are not chinese is like saying white people are americans and colored people aren't.
