Haha..is that Trump on 4:00?

Hory shit! Never learned so much about japan in this short amount of time.

The video itself was poorly edited but the history lesson was interesting. Then again it has been pretty much the same everywhere in the world, war and problems, typical humans. Who has the biggest stick and isn't afraid of using it - the winner. I'm actually terrified for world war 3, whenever that takes place. It's not going to be pretty. There is so much tension across countries today.

If only the videos shown in history class were like this

Interesting fast forward and I guess not all a fact.
The most important thing missing is that US dropped the atomic bomb much later and that was after Hitler and his alliance declared defeat.
From this we can clearly see how US politics operates and still does. The war was over, all media and the world new abut that, but the US clearly decided (pure politics) to drop and destroy-killing innocent people with devastating endings.
Nothing till this day was more absurd in any war!!!

#10 Maybe you skipped history class in school which would explain you not knowing that the end of the war in Europe did not end the war still going on in the Pacific. Japan never stopped fighting and never would accept surrender until AFTER the second bomb was dropped, and it still did not happen immediately. While VE day was in May 1945, VJ day was almost four months later. No Japanese fighting unit had ever surrendered and the entire civilian population of Japan was gearing up for an extended war to repel an invasion they thought was coming. The bombs saved more lives than they took, on both sides.

I really liked the way this was made, I know it was simplified and sped up to fit in 9 minutes, however it helped me understand the history of that part of the world much better. The visualization was very helpful too. Great video!
