 To watch this video please click above and it will also be linked in the description below and at the end of this video in the end screen. So for a little more context I've started another YouTube channel completely free called World History Decoded. There's various reasons why I wanted to start this channel and I'll document a few just in a second but in general nothing's got to change with Celtic History Decoded and it's still going to be the same and thank you for your support over the last couple years with this channel but yeah there's a few reasons why I wanted to start a separate channel and it's going to be a kind of sister channel to Celtic History Decoded. Firstly I wanted to keep Celtic History Decoded as a channel focused on Celtic history and a wee bit on kind of ancient civilizations in the region you know the geographical region where Celtic languages are still spoken today you know Britain, Ireland, parts of Western Europe and the kind of Atlantic zone that geographical zone in general and so touched on kind of Atlantis and a few other things and maybe a wee bit more on kind of ancient civilizations, ice ages, what kind of island or Britain or you know Scotland looked at after the ice age, last ice age sorry, which I've touched on in some videos but that's got to be a small element, most of it's got to be Celtic and Scottish history and so that's one reason I wanted to keep Celtic History Decoded a channel where you kind of know what you're going to get and I don't like channels that they start doing one thing and then you know after they get a wee bit success to start moving to a completely different area and I think from a kind of subscriber perspective you kind of want to know what you're going to get from the channel so Celtic History Decoded basically is going to be Celtic history in general and that's going to be the main focus but obviously I'm interested in other aspects of history so I wanted to start a separate channel so for those that are interested in history more broadly please go and subscribe to World History Decoded, like I say I'll put a link in the top there, there'll be links at the end of this video to the channel and the video I've made on the kind of Norse origin, old Norse origin, Viking origin of many English words we use today, words like egg, husband etc, very common English words come from old Norse and it's related to the Danelaw, the Vikings etc so that was just a quick short video I made it's the kind of first video for this channel, for the channel, the new channel and when I get a chance I've got to make more videos on that in general World History Decoded is going to be a backup to Celtic History as well, Celtic History Decoded and so please subscribe to World History Decoded for that reason if anything happens to Celtic History Decoded please kind of take a note bookmark that World History Decoded will be a backup to this main channel, I'm also on Instagram, Twitter and various other things, Instagram's kind of a good place to follow me as well just to get again as a backup obviously I'm Patreon but that's kind of paid subscription service so feel free obviously to sign up there but World History Decoded completely free, Instagram completely free so like I say Celtic History Decoded is going to be the same, nothing else has got nothing's got to change on Celtic History and apart from me trying to make it a wee bit better as a go and get better you know the lighting setup a wee bit better and just improve the quality etc but you know the stories in the subject mark is going to stay the same so I'm not going to drastically change anything and it's more just a different option for people that are interested in history in general like say please go and subscribe and check out that channel and spread it with your friends and family World History Decoded I started with a separate email address to Celtic History Decoded, confusingly I did start initially a couple years ago I started History Decoded as a kind of sister channel I'm going to decommission that I've not really been posting on it just very occasionally but that was basically tied to the same email address through Celtic History Decoded and for the interest to kind of back up in you know YouTube potentially my you know one day just starts striking my videos etc I just wanted a wee bit of a backup and just another outlet and that's a wee bit more separate to Celtic History Decoded and like say the subject mark has got to be broadly more about history as opposed to just Celtic History and so if you're interested in history more broadly I would definitely check it out yes as far as the upload schedule for World History Decoded I'll really be up and I got a chance Celtic History Decoded will be the priority still and like say I posted one video on World History Decoded my channel a few more over the next couple months but it's going to be quite limited on Celtic History Decoded I'm really aiming for once a week like I've pretty much been doing I was looking after the last year or so obviously new year etc everyone obviously new year etc everyone kind of reviews their channel their content and stuff so it's growing at a good good rate and I've made more than one video a week on average over the last year or so I think I worked out about 65 videos over the last kind of 52 weeks you know the last year so that's a good rate but ideally I want to get to two videos a week that's my goal and I think really for rate of growth and really content publishing every couple of days on Celtic History Decoded it is my primary kind of objective for the new year but obviously I've got a full-time job so if you do want me to kind of post more often and just kind of take it to the next level please consider supporting me and obviously on Patreon it's like a pound a month VAT on top of that which is annoying but I don't control that that's through Patreon but it'll work out maybe like a pound 20 a pound 30 a month or whatever obviously you can look at Patreon itself for all the official details but you know for as long as it was a pound a month you get ad-free content and more people that sign up the more I'll post maybe you know very occasional exclusive content there and exclusive videos and there'll be other content as well though behind the scenes content access to polls and you can get your name and videos and the end credits or the middle credits and depending what tier you select so all the information on Patreon and Patreon is a really good way to support me it gives me a wee bit more stability of income as well and I really appreciate everyone that does support me on Patreon really appreciate everyone who buys me a coffee another way to support is buymeacoffee.com and I know someone just donated five coffees the other day so I really appreciate that thank you very much as much appreciated I know obviously everyone all the money's a hard hard-earned money and you know kind of living crisis etc at the minute and under bills I appreciate that you know money's tight for a lot of people if you can't financially support my work obviously like say there's Patreon buymeacoffee.com and PayPal if you want to financially support the channel but honestly just you know supporting the channel through sharing my content on social media on your own social media platforms and you know sharing it with other sharing it in any other way really as long as you give me credit at Celtic History Decoded you can literally do whatever you want with it and if you've got a YouTube channel or anything yourself please feel free to kind of cut aspects of my videos if you want to critique aspects if you want to just include part of my video on your video to kind of give it different angles or whatever please feel free to do that like say I would appreciate if you just linked to Celtic History Decoded linked back and give me credit but but literally my content's creative commons so you can basically use my content however you wish in most regards as long as you give me credit basically do what you want my content criticize it share it etc but obviously a free way to share my content and help this channel is just to share it with your friends and family like the videos when it comes came like the videos when it comes out and that really helps the algorithm comments or trying to read as many comments as possible really enjoy getting your feedback and etc but anyway I don't want to ramble on too much I just wanted to basically say I've started World History Decoded there'll be links just in 10 seconds or so after this video and that will allow you to access it like say I'll link up the corner and I'll link in the description below as well so you have all the details but thanks again for watching thanks for all your support over the last year or so hopefully had a good Christmas good new year and I'll speak to you very shortly with new videos thanks again speak to you soon
