  • Oh, Christ! You're an imbecile.

  • UNLIKE george I , and George II, george III never visited hannover he concentrated of being a british king...

  • ok....you need to do your history...england and scotland were united under queen anne, ireland was united with great britain in 1800...also george III illneses were only short episodes of his life....true he did lead the largest navy on earth but your video sucks....thus i give you an F

  • I love America. It's a beautiful country, but it has become very corrupt. This system does not work anymore. No government is perfect, but I think America should be under the crown! History has been so distorted, I wonder how good the founding fathers really were. If King George was so bad why wasn't there a bigger rebellion? Alot fought on his side in the revolutionary war. Was he really a nasty King? I wonder.

  • @JorEl7771

    Lately? Tell me... With all Honesty.... Corrupt Ecnonomically, or politically overall? I've sought to find corruption yet not much has been found, excluding the liberal media lies and the certain events that occur behind closed doors (Guantanamo Bay is an example). Although, I disagree with the belief of Obama being a Socialist, because in order for Socialism to work, other countries must follow, and that hasn't happened so far. Hopefully America will regain it's dignity. God Bless.

  • United Ireland? Haha like hell he did...maybe against the crown.

  • Britain and Scotland were united in 1707 I believe and then referred to as Great Britain.

    The Soviets did face the brunt of the Nazis, however it was not until the Invasion of Sicily and Normandy did the Soviets make gains against the Nazis.

    I do believe that Omaha and Normandy were harder to secure than Gold Juno and Sword

  • Comment removed

  • This clip smacks of a distorted, surreal and ill-educated understanding of history be it English, Irish or in general. Was it by any chance made by an American?

  • @hesajollygoodfellow Hey now...its not our fault our government lies to us...well some of us...the liberals mostly.haha

  • well this is either made by an american or someone who knows nothing of British history.

  • Correction: George III did not cause the revolutionary war in the states. The Americans pleas to the King petitioning for representation at the UK parliament went unnoticed, they rebelled against the King, declared independence and thereby caused a global war between the US, UK and European powers.

    Secondly, the union of England, Scotland, and Ireland happened in 1603 when James I (who was also James VI of Scotland) became King although each kingdom remained separate states until the rule of

  • Nice pictures but otherwise a load of crap!

  • On the map in 0.30 its shows Sleswig and Holstein as Prussian territory. Thats incorrect, at the time of king George III it was not Prussian.

    It first became Prussian in 1864 with the war against Denmark.

  • @monradus The map is entirely anachronistic. It portrays Prussia within the German Empire in 1871, seeing as how Alsace-Lorraine is included in the borders of Germany. Furthermore, Prussia was much smaller for most of George III's reign, and was insignificant indeed after its defeat at the hands of Napoleon.

  • it is so sad that this is badly done. Do real research and get the real facts and then tell the story, at least you couple of facts correct that is something.

  • I'm actually not all that familiar with the details, but my understanding was that Parliament was more to blame for the war than George.

    Why didn't they just let the colonists elect MPs?

    WHY OH WHY, ET CETERA!

  • @UdallIn72 : That's all we wanted. A voice in Parliament

  • @chufuss You ignorant fool. Do you know of rotten boroughs? Or of the Penal Laws in Ireland? Fact of the matter is, most Irishmen were not represented in their own Parliament in Dublin, seeing as how only Prods could sit or vote. Furthermore such huge cities like Birmingham were entirely unrepresented. So there were thousands of ENGLISH in ENGLAND who had no representation in Parliament. What makes Americans so damn special?

  • @LordClaremorris ,

    very interesting, why would a so called Irish, be interested in British history ???

    is't because the so called Irish is nothing but fake ass Irish wanna be???

  • @UdallIn72 Parliament tried to reduce the panic-making deficit created by the Seven Years War by taxing the American colonies to defray the cost of their defense. George III felt the same financial pressures and, as was his duty, backed Parliament. However, having made that decision, the King became altogether too inflexible on the matter. He saw it as a principle: who rules whom? The colonies must obey Britain and that's that. This bad-tempered inflexibility made things worse.

  • And the continental Army Kicked his Armies ass out of North America HAR HAR!!!!!

  • @seahorse1945 Humph! So you take the presence of the French Army, under Rochambeau. and that of the French fleet, under de Grasse, behind Yorktown, preventing the Royal Navy from resupplying Cornwallis or carrying his army away to safety, as totally inconsequential in this matter. It's like World War II. The Russians destroyed 85% of the German Army and the British secured the Normandy Beachhead, but oogigi oogigi the Americans won the war. Presumptuous American fat heads one and all.

  • WRONG WRONG WRONG-this video is clearly made by a moron-England and Scotland were united nearly a century earlier, and the decision to unite with Ireland was made by politicians not monarchs-clearly you know nothing about how the British system works.

    You complete and utter retard

  • Easy now fellow... people make mistakes.

  • agreed

  • Che pezzo di merda this is.

  • The crowns of England and Scotland united in 1603, under james I. But they both stayed seperate Kingdoms with seperate parlaiments.

    The two parliaments then united in 1707 to form the single Kingdom of Great Britain.

    The Kingdom of Great Britain then united with the Kingdom of Ireland in 1801 to form: the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland.

  • God the inaccuracy is horrible here, sorry man but I have to say so. Not only are you wrong about George III not uniting England and Scotland, but you're also wrong about him uniting England and Ireland. I thought the least the British could do for wrongly colonizing us for 300 years would be to get their facts right! Pillagers!!

  • So he had a couple of screws loose, so he had lost the 13 colonies and set loose a recless future super power. He's still a king of England and deserves recognition. Britons be glad you have a monarchy, as an english-dutchman im glad.

  • he didnt loose the colonies-the politicians did. He simply became a convenient scapegoat for the Americans

  • Woah.... talk about historically inaccurate there. United England and Scotland? As aboce, that was James the first after he inherited from Elizabeth I. And he wasn't really mad. But the treatments of the day made things worse. 1 star for no research done.

  • james the 1st united england and scotland, and he had bouts of preiodic madness was not totaly insane
