In 1618, Europe stands on the cusp of the most destructive war in its history – a thirty-year-long cataclysm that will engulf the continent. Slaughter and rumours of cannibalism will haunt the land. War, starvation, and plague will decimate whole populations.
What started as a regional religious dispute spirals into a widespread, total war. No one will be spared in a conflict that still casts a long shadow across European history to this day.

Why do the years float back n forth? It's super confusing
Incredible video
Very interesting
WTF, you should never pronounce Latin sentences in English, be cautious next time …
You guys do realize, of course, that you inverted truth — you pulled an Ingsoc by portraying assortative migration to live among those that share your strongly held beliefs as "imposing beliefs from above" when the alternative to cuius regio, eius relgio offered them was a unified theocracy. And you do realize, of course, that the present situation of cultural pluralism is being imposed "from above" just as was the theocracy that Protestants Protested, right? And, finally, you do realize that you are actively closing off the best way to PREVENT a blood letting that will make all wars in human history seem like paddycakes including The Thirty Years War.
If you didn't realize all of the above, you'd better do a 180 video after having hunted down whoever in your crew was possessed of such a bloodthirsty spirit.
A truly masterclass in historical storytelling. It's chilling to grasp the scale of the destruction and how a 'small act of violent resistance' spiraled into such a devastating cataclysm [31:21]. This video honors the complexity and the sheer human cost of the Thirty Years' War. Thank you for this essential history lesson. 🙏
This is so stupid 😭🤣
Japan's government on their way to sell out their country (they didnt learn from Europe)
Then we have the Pakistanis, Indians, and Bangladesh keyboard warriors tryna say the people in the video are from one of the 3 countries in the Indian peninsula to prove a point
😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣
To be honest, I'd prefer more a full series about the specific topic. Yet, that doesn't mean i didn't enjoy this. A masterpiece, just as usual. Keep going like that friend 😉👍👌.
Remember when this channel actually did battle maps
EU5 Music is a nice detail <3
