this is very well made, though I have one small thing to say, wasn't old Fritz's real name not "Friedrich Wilhelm II"? (at least in here in Germany he is calle dlike that)

[moforever00]

The names are really confusing......there are four historical figures mentioned in the video.

0:16 Frederick William (1620-1688) [Great Elector]

0:16 Frederick I (1657-1713) [King in Prussia]

0:33 Frederick William I (1688-1740) [Soldier King]

0:50 Frederick II (1712-1786) [King of Prussia/The Great/Old Fritz]

btw, Frederick William II is his successor

[Windmelodie]

okay, that really is confusing....well, maybe that are their names in english, because in William is not a typical german/prussian name, Frederick William is called Friedrich Wilhelm in german.

I don't know, maybe its really just about the different languages..

[moforever00]

William is the English version of Wilhelm. Just like Ludwig becomes Louis in English.

[SupporterInDenial]

There are equivalents of names in different languages, yes, but you don't change the name of a person when translating.

[moforever00]

@SupporterInDenial

but that's how they are called in English text...

[ArexFTW]

Oh my. Old Fritz is.... so attractive in this. xD When I read "I won't run away from you again" I knew it was Old Fritz because that's what he did right? He tried to run away once before with his best friend? I read that from Wikipedia. It looked sad because that was "supposedly" his lover. Hetalia gives me a lot more perspective in history than actual school does.

Where does this audio actually come from? What was it's original purpose?

[Y2kain2]

whats the name of the song they sing at the end i cant find the instrumental version

[mangafreak811]

@ArexFTW I agree im getting alot more out of this video than i did in history class. They should start showing this video in history classes when studing the 7 year war, it would be WAY more effective! ^_^

[Yuna425]

With that way every child on earth would be more exited about Hitory in school :O

Well in each leanguage of course XD

[JapaneseAnimalover]

me: hey grandma what nationalitys am i?

grandma: um russian, french, italian, austrian, japnese, but ur mainly german,your about 30% eastern german, prussian to be exact

me: *brain thinks of prussias rape face* ROLF

grandma: o.o wud i say

me: nothing, carry on *trys not to laugh at prussias rape face*

[leitedestiny]

This is amazing! O.O ANYMORE?!?! xD Oh and now I am addicted to that short little song of Prussia's Glory....^^

And it's an adaption of something else? How, changing the tune and all must of took a while. :) LOVE IT!!

[rueLf94]

ah., if histroy classes we're depicted like this., it wouldn't allow most of us to sleep on it.,

[GoddessOfWind]

@Windmelodie Friedrich Wilhelm II was his nephew. Friedrich Wilhelm I was his father. He really is Friedrich II.

[mitsukirox101]

holy shit this is exactly what we are doing in class (memorizes video)

[mangaohnename]

i really like the sound horizon´s song adaption and history is so much easier thanks to hetalia =)

[kaitokita]
