Dear Patrons, 

I am very pleased to share the second part of The Decembrists series - 'Revolt Against the Tsar'. This is a 30 minute video, packed with all the events of the Decembrist uprising in St.Petersburg and Ukraine, as well as the aftermath and contested legacy of the revolt. I hope you enjoy it (though it ends up a pretty sad tale). 

Stay tuned for the credits, where I got to fulfil a lifelong desire to do one of those cool montages, where you get to see the actor alongside the real person (or in this case, Milek's artwork alongside the archive on which it was based.)

Typos for Merch is in effect (but doesn't include the extra space in the Nicholas quote, which I've already fixed) - first person to spot one gets any item from the store in thanks.

Next up - 1848: Year of Revolutions (which is going to be a shorter one-off video, more of a dramatic, sweeping overview). 

But before that, we will vote on the next Napoleon topics! Look out for updates next week.

Thanks for all your support, and hope you enjoy the video. 

Toby

SUPERB Conclussion to this mini series! Keep it UP!

Covfefe Dotard

I hope you do the polish revolt in 1830

EpicHistoryTV

It would make the ideal sequel to this series, but we're off to 1848 next..

Resident Elect

I had no idea that so many of the main instigators either lost their nerve, or made such poor diplomatic and tactical decisions when the wheels were finally set in motion. Such a great disservice to those brave infantrymen and guards who steadfastly held the line out of principle even as blanks exploded in front of them, and cannon balls flew inches over their heads. Thank you once again Team EHTV!

Samuel Pattinasarane

How long will the 1848 video be, Toby? I hope at least it's also 30 minutes

Astra Solace

Either 18 mins 48 secs or 184.8 mins lol.

Line_of_Blood

Wow, I’m surprised the 2nd part is out this quick,am I dreaming?

Kieran

I enjoyed it a lot

Marcos Moguel

Thanks for the knowledge 👍🏼

Job Franschman

Are you going to talk about small ‘revolutions’ like in the Netherlands in that 1848 video or only about big violent ones like in France and Germany?

EpicHistoryTV

I haven't written it yet so I'm not quite sure, but it will aim to be a comprehensive overview of events in Europe.

Eric Sorkin

This is really great content!! I was sad to see that after all the battles and glory of the napoleonic wars, Miloradovich died so unceremoniously. Almost felt like we knew him!

EpicHistoryTV

Thanks Eric. Yes, a rather squalid death for a great general - like the man to whom he was sometimes compared - Joachim Murat!

Ron Rozen

Amazing, was very engaging and interesting, thank you!

MarbleHit

such an amazing series toby <3 Was it difficult to acquire all the information you used?

Astra Solace

Hello Toby, great work as always. I was thinking however, for your future videos going forward, could you add quotes in their original languages like you did in this Decembrists series? For example you visually showcased the quote in Russian, before translating it in English. I thought that was a pretty dope thing because you can literally witness the original thoughts of the quoted people. So for example we can see what Napoléon literally said in French, before you translate it into English. And similarly we can hear what German/Italian 1848 revolutionaries also said in their original languages, before you translate them. It doesn't have to be every quote since it would take up more screen space and probably video time (if you truly want to aim for 18 mins 48 secs for the 1848 video lol), but I thought moving forward your future videos could use this same newer feature of having the original quote in its original language, before translating it. What do you think Toby? Thank you.

EpicHistoryTV

Thank you! Yes, the role of Ivan (the series researcher based in Moscow, working from Russian accounts) was very important.

EpicHistoryTV

Thank you! I'm not sure if I'll do this every time. It is interesting and valuable for some viewers to see the quote in its original language, but that needs to be balanced against the appeal of a nice, clean presentation. Too many words on screen can look quite ugly, or off-putting for casual viewers. (Also, it's not always possible for me to find the original quotes in their native language).

Astra Solace

Yea I understand, hence I did mention that it doesn't have to be every quote haha. Perhaps maybe for the one or two quotes near the end of the video or at the video's climax? Like a movie, this would add an extra.... "interesting factor" (for the lack of a term)? Just like how in movies and shows where the finale adds extra elements to tell the viewer that the climax is approaching? Can't wait for the 1848 Revolutions honestly. I know somehow, your video visuals would make it seem like the whole of Europe was on literal fire in that year HAHA

Sergei

I liked how you did the Russian version first could you please do it again

Stuart Carver

Awesome as always Russian history is so cool. Only thing I noticed is when they move from the square to the river there are only 2 flags shown instead of 3? Did one of them just flee?

EpicHistoryTV

You have a very keen eye! The Sailors of the Guard retreated down one of the side streets to the south, and didn't go onto the ice. It's a detail I left out for sake of time.

Stuart Carver

I’m just sad enough to rewatch it 100 times😂. I’m also not sure about the gap on the map in the first video. I looked it up and it’s the republic of Krakaw but why at the congress of Vienna was it not given to one of the major powers?

EpicHistoryTV

Krakow was made a Free City by the Vienna Congress. I assume as a compromise to try and keep all sides happy (Austria/Prussia/Russia).
