Thank you for voting in the first round of voting. I wanted to inform you that the script for the topic "How the Congo predicts the future of Saudi Arabia" is already fully writen. So, I decided to make it anyway. It will be a short video so I can make it easily on the side. 

But concerning the main video that ought to be next, you voted for two topics that are video series. You should be aware that this will mean 3-4 months in which 7-10 videos are made that only cover this topic.

Here are the topics you picked for the second round of voting, and which you will vote on now:

Culture Wars: This would be a series of 12-15 videos that are each about 20-30 minutes long in a series in which I try to explain the Origins of the American political structures, and why they are predominantly shaped by the "culture war" rather than by state institutions.

Legacies of Imperialism: This would be a several part long series discussing the legacy of Imperialism. It would go through a list of former Empires and specifically discuss the legacies in political structures that they have left behind in their colonies. Each part would cover one specific Empire: Spain, Portugal, Netherlands, France, Britain, China, United States, Germany, Japan, and Russia.

Is it possible to also include the Ottoman empire? I know it will be included in the cases of British and French middle east, but still?

i think the series on Turkey went deep enough into the Ottoman empire and its legacies to the middle east and islamic world not just Turkey

Will these multi-part series be superseding the shorter videos that had been planned for gradual rollout? I vaguely recall the decision being that you'd be avoiding series that would have long production times for a while.

I don't know tbh. Now that I am unemployed I will at the very least try to push out more content.

I voted for the Legacies of Imperialism, not just because I enjoy the topic more, but because I think it’s incredibly reductive to reduce American political and cultural history to “culture wars” as its causes, especially since a lot of conflicts in American political history were done in tandem with other movements (for example, the American suffrage movement worked closely with British suffragettes). It doesn’t make sense to say that things like, for example, a Prohibition movement were the result of American culture wars, considering that Norway and Sweden also had a contemporary movement prohibition movement that heavily impacted their political structures (like the government monopolies and excise taxes that exist in Scandinavia today).

Will the topics of the first two voting rounds return at some point in the future?

Culture Wars would be more entertaining to me, but I understand why people want to discuss imperialism more. I think it would also be less stressful to make the culture war videos as well. Doing research on the history of imperialism as a topic in many different places might be way too much work. That is a lot of history to cover under the huge umbrella of imperialism. Discussing one niche topic about one very well documented country might be more suited to a YouTube video as well as allowing you to go very in depth into that topic.
