How Rifles & Railroads influenced Warfare in the 19th Century

The introduction of the breech-loading rifle and the Railroad had a tremendous influence on Warfare in the 19th Century. Although, not everyone was as fast or able to adopt then the Prussians. Austria, France and Russia had major issues. Most notably visible in the Austro-Prussian War (1866) and Franco-Prussian War (1870-1871). »» SUPPORT MHV «« » patreon - https://www.patreon.com/mhv » paypal donation - https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=TFHEY4P4YU3NY »» MERCHANDISE - SPOILS OF WAR «« » shop - https://www.redbubble.com/people/mhvis/shop »» SOCIAL MEDIA «« » minds.com - https://www.minds.com/militaryhistoryvisualized » facebook - https://www.facebook.com/milhistoryvisualized/ » twitter - https://twitter.com/MilHiVisualized » twitch - https://www.twitch.tv/militaryhistoryvisualized » RallyPoint - https://www.rallypoint.com/organizations/military-history-visualized » tumblr - http://militaryhistoryvisualized.tumblr.com/ Military History Vlogs is a support channel to Military History Visualized with a focus personal accounts, answering questions that arose on the main channel and showcasing events like visiting museums, using equipment or military hardware. » SOURCES « Herrera, Geoffrey L.: Inventing the Railroad and Rifle Revolution: Information, Military Innovation and the Rise of Germany.

Interesting episode. The American Civil War and the integration of Telegraph and Railway usage with operations should also be examined by anyone interested in the topic. It also saw the difficulty in incorporating the massive increase in firepower range and accuracy brought by muzzle-loading rifles into tactical and operational decision making. This occurred in both the Austro-Prussian War and Franco-Prussian War as well.

thank you! hmm since I have the VLOGS now, I actually can dust of my Library of Congress Desk Reference for the ACW again, so this might actually happen. Main issue with the VIS format was always: I am going to spend probably 20 hours on this, so it must be a "good topic", luckily, with VLOGS, I don't have this problem anymore.

The short format is worth it for that reason alone. All three wars saw a massive increase in casualties caused by the increase in firepower, which surprised planners and commanders. During the ACW this was far more pronounced due to tue length of the conflict (Bewegungskrieg being impossible to conduct Strategically and swiftly in a war on a continental scale, something those Prussians always seem to forget later...😀).
