In April 1859, a group of Italian guerrillas known as the "Hunters of the Alps" united. Not under the King or his French allies but they fought for a legendary figure, Garibaldi himself. And as Austria invaded, these soldiers made their mark in the high Alps becoming a feared guerrilla force that would become legendary in the fight for Italian unification.

So I think you meant part 5 instead of part 3 for this video on Patron. Regardless, I wanted to thank you guys so much for this series on Garibaldi. I’ve been dying for an EH series on the Risorgimento ever since watching the series on Otto von Bismarck and this series did not disappoint. It’s been interesting seeing the similarities between both the characters of Bismarck and Garibaldi as well as the process of unifying Italy and Germany in general. Here’s to maybe a one off on some of the other minor characters of this series like Camilo Benso if you guys at EH ever get a chance.

Would the ancient expedition of the Ten Thousand [that's Xenophon and his friends] make for an interesting Extra History series one day? I've just had a PS5 delivered, by the way.

Hey Martin, do you play Legend of Zelda The Wind Waker? Just curious ( If you don’t, I recommend you do because it is awesome, but it’s on the Wii U).

I know OF the Legend of Zelda series but I've never actually played any of them. The most recent game I played was called Train Valley, and also an older one called Hearts Of Iron IV, which I have just bought some DLC for on Steam called Trials Of Allegiance. I'm hoping to get Sid Meier's Civilization VII if I can during the Christmas period. By the way, this question's going to seem a bit stupid to some people, but was the Wii EWE designed by female sheep, by any chance? ;-)

I hope to one day get to see a series on the Borgia family, and I can't wait to see all the Assassins creed references stuck into it.

Another good series. You guys have done episodes on pretty much every historical figure I've ever wanted an episode on except Kemal Ataturk and Napoleon. Patiently waiting for the next episode suggestion to put their names in the ring.
