How did the American Civil War Actually Happen? (Part 1) - From 1819 to 1861
How did the American Civil War Actually Happen? - American Civil War - Part 1

1819. The newly-born United States of America sat in a state of delicate balance. 11 free states, and 11 slave states. From the outside looking in, it appeared to be perfect harmony. Equal states, equal representation, and equal influence in federal affairs.

    The years leading up to the civil war really quite honestly is more important to learn about than the actual war itself.
  • @deadmeat8754
    As the bearer of a degree in American History and the beneficiary of a classic American education, I can say that your Civil War series is quite accurate. It is sad that modern American education has deprecated the teaching of actual American History. Your well researched and produced American Civil War series should be required viewing in every American classroom. +1

    Finally a format in which I could digest it all in one sitting instead of splashes of history, never a beginning to end. Thanks!
  • @whodidit99
    I learned more from this short video than a year of high school US history.
  • As an ex-pat Brit living in New Zealand, most of this was a revelation for me. It was not a subject covered in UK schools when I was a lad. Incredibly interesting.
  • @dharuacharya
    I haven't even looked at your other videos but if they are a half as good as this, you have won me over. Instant subscribe just based on this video. Thanks for all your hard work and research. Well done mate.
  • @garyvaughn9475
    this by far the best historical video I have ever watched. so many things between the lines that you could make this video 3 hours long. and I would watch it. my hat is off to you.
  • As a Brit who's lived in the US for over 40 years this presentation is the first time I've ever understood the contextual circumstances that caused the Civil War (other than the American Revolution and its connection to the Somerset Case in 1771), much appreciated 👍.
  • l love the way he speaks in such a way l can understand as being a non native English speaker and also being very dramatic in tone, wish more YouTubers were like this.
  • @daviddesmond2143
    Excellent video. I wish i could have seen this in 1962 when in USA grade school we studdied the Civil War. I do not recall them discussing what led to the cause of this terrible war. ALSO, THE bACKGROUND MUSIC TO THIS VIDEO IS AMAZING AND COMPLIMENTED THE NARRATION. YOU DESERVE AN AWARD FOR THAT!
  • As an American myself I never knew just how deep the history of the civil war ran. Thank you for providing this and other videos that teaches us, in amazing detail of our countries' past.
  • The reason this video exists is because school is daycare now

    I don't recall being taught much about American history here in Slovakia, this was very informative and I finally have at least an idea on what civil war really was. Will there be part two ?

    This was an absolute masterpiece of a video. Subscribed
  • This is such a better to tool to use for classrooms rather than words on a textbook. I loved history in high school, but having a video like this would have made it so much more fun for me and others as well.
  • This was incredible. Way better than any boring textbook I read in school. You brought history to life. Bravo 👏🏼

    This was excellent, I recently visited the Civil War Museum (renamed from the Confederate Civil War museum) in New Orleans. This video cleared up a lot of what I may have missed while walking through the museum. I also have read a few book s on the Civil War but this brought it home, great video.
