The new recruit to the royal army doesn't get a very good welcome.

  • @Lieblingsfachful guerillia tactics were never "invented" it just happened from time to time. the celtiberians for example did it to fight against the romans in spain, the battle in the teutoburg forrest was a guerillia fight and there are plenty of other examples from the ancients through the medieval times until today.

  • @kataangluv100 Actually, if you look back to the country's founding at Jamestown, it was the English who were already using guerrilla tactics. Governor De La Warr (Delaware was named after him), fought the Powhatans using what he called "Irish Tactics", raiding villages, burning fields, stole provisions, etc. Chief Powahatan quickly so potential in it, and used it also.

    So, if you really want to thinking about it, the Irish tough the English, who taught the Natives, who taught the Americans. :D

  • @staceylover77 Indentured servitude was really inhumane. You can't say it didn't happen, because it did happen. Just like the vikings villein system, the enslavement of europeans in Hapsburg Austria, Just like russian serfdom, The enslavement of europeans during the hun empire, and the enslavement of Europeans in the ottoman and moorish empire. This all happened and you know it's true

  • @staceylover77 I am not talking about british holocaust deniers. I am basically saying that denying that thousands if not millions of Irish, Scottish, English and Germans were enslaved is like denying the holocaust

  • this is a kids show. cant you people try to keep it friendly? 

  • @staceylover77 well said.

  • @MrBanausos as a serving soldier in the British Army i'm quite proud to serve my country, as were my forfathers.I'm also based in Germany, minutes away from Bergen-Belsen concentration camp (liberated by the British in WW2). I've yet to meet a British holocaust denier,.

    Please stop watching Mel Gibson movies and open a history book (preferabley one that wasn't written by and American) and read it.

  • @staceylover77 Oh really so Indentured servitude was not slavery. My god you almost sound like a holocaust denier

  • @x66Hawk66x If that was the case then Why would the founding father plea neutrality as soon as America was independent from Britain? Also the battle of Waterloo was 3 years or more after the beginning of the war of 1812. So no Napoleon was not quelled

  • @MrBanausos Slaves from Ireland, Scotland and Germany? I think not! Scotland was (and still is) part of Great Britain. (There's a reason they were called the British and not the English). Scots and Irish joined up as volunteers being members of the United Kingdom. The King's German Legion were also volunteers. Please also remember that Britain abandoned slavery a full 50 years before the so callled "land of the free".

  • @MrBanausos Actually America used the Napoleon war as a chance to go to war with britan. Napoleon was crushed before any truce was made in America.

  • @LittleDragon2000 But, it's fun to watch you run around in non-logical circles!
