Europe Ablaze: The 1848 Revolutions
์์ค ์ฝ๋
- ๊ฒ์์ผ 2022. 08. 04.
- This is the story of the 1848 European revolutions, one of the most dramatic and significant moments in the history of the continent. Hungry workers and peasants joined forces with liberals and nationalists, and in a series of tumultuous events, toppled the French monarchy, and forced reforms across Italy, Germany, and the Austrian Empire. But the revolutionaries were divided between middle class liberals seeking limited reforms, and radicals and workers who wanted sweeping change. As they argued over political and economic reform, counter-revolutionary forces recovered their confidence, and gathered their strength for a brutal onslaught against Europe's revolutionaries.

Thanks for your work, saying that your videos are incredible would be an euphemism. Thanks for your craftmanship, these are some of the best stuff on youtube.
As for the Radetzky March, while I recognize that it is pretty catchy, as an italian I don't think it will stick in my head :P
Absolutely and always
It is so great if u will found unknow photos of historical characters
What will the next video be on?
This was amazing! Amazing ๐คฉ
"When France sneezes, Europe catches a cold" is one of the most awesome quotes I have ever heard.

Great video. I do wish they had mentioned the 'forty-eighters'. A term used to describe the two million Germans who immigrated to the United States after Prussia had crushed the revolution back home. During the American civil war more then 200,000 of those German immigrants had joined the Union army and helped Lincoln secure two elections and victory in the battlefield. The grandchildren of those Germans would go on to fight their German cousins in world war 2, men like Eisenhower and Nimitz, whose lives would not have existed had there been no revolution in 1848.
Sicilians and Neopolitans also migrated to America in mass.
@Alex Zero very true. They, along with the millions of Germans and famished Irish, helped turn the tide during the civil war. More so then slavery or secession, the presence of millions of new liberal-minded voters in the North tipped the scale decisively in favor of the Union. I've always viewed the revolution of 1848 as being a direct cause of the civil war.
They must go back
@anythingthough anythingthough Why would Germany want those traitors back?
German Diasporah...
As a Czech, I'm loving this. You are doing great job with putting all things to context. At schools, we learned all this mainly in the context of our country. You are doing a much better job than them.
I'm also from Czechia, but when I attented to a high school, we learnt about year 1848 throughouth the Europe, including Italy, France, GB, Germany, Austria etc. But school are different I guess.
@Joachim Peiper so did we, but since we talked about all of them, we barely got deeper insight into any
What I find interesting, a lot of things that people tried to make happen during revolutions of 1848-1849 happened rather conservatively about 20 years later:
1) Hungary gains equal status inside Habsburg monarchy in 1867
2) Italians defeat Austrians and unite the country in 1861 (1870 finished)
3) Denmark loses schleswig-holstein in 1864
4) Germany is united in 1871
5) France becomes a democratic republic after defeat in the war in 1871
Italians defeat Austrians you say? In which battle? :P
@Falc battle of Solferino and second Italian war of independence. With the help of France of course, but that doesn't change the point.
Good point!
@alexo22 well both wars win with help of other great power. In 1859 with help of France and during 1866 by help of Prussia. During both wars Italians would not be able win anything on thier own. 1866 campaign was even worst for them. As they loose both on sea and land with superior numbers.
@Falc you're totally right
It's so strange that this subject isn't that talked about when so many prominent figures from the rest of the century are brought up from the revolutions, Bismarck, Napoleon, Giuseppe Mazzini, Victorio Emanuelle, Giuseppe Garibaldi, Franz Joseph.
If we had a society that cared about the past then we would talk about it
Don't forget Marx and Engels, who wrote the Communist Manifesto directly in response to the 1848 revolutions.
Maybe your curriculum was different but here in cbse board india, we learnt all about the year of revolutions 1848, italian and German unification etc
Itโs simple actually, itโs because today nationalism is attached to the far right (whereas it was attached to the left in the 19th century). Roughly speaking, people donโt want to say today that nationalism is a ยซ good ยป thing.
Great job as always. Without a doubt this is the highest quality historical channel on youtube, this just puts a perfect finishing bow on the napoleon series!
But I'm still waiting for the stuff about Napoleons early career and his rise to power.
1848 was an awful year. Napoleon did more harm than good and basically destroyed Europe
Bravo! Du trรจs bon travail
@eksadiss Screw the politics stuff, I want egypt and italy!
'When France sneezes, Europe catches a cold' what an awesome quote. Incredible video as always!
So inavding all those countries and planting ideas via unprecedented propaganda through the dominant force of military occupation is just called 'sneezing' now? lol
โโ@Andrijts called a metaphor, its subtle i know, even if the message really just means "when France acts, Europe reacts" in a fancier way
"get rich" is much better
"You get a revolution!" "You get a revolution!" "Everyone gets a revolution!"
Poland: YAAYYYYY
Europe: Oh, except you.
Poland: -_-
The 1848 revolution had a huge impact in the United States. After the failure of the 1848 revolution, many Germans immigrated to the US and settled in states like Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. Most of the Midwest states were built my German immigrants. If the revolution hadnโt failed, the immigrants would of most likely not immigrated to the US.
Not to forget the role some of these German immigrants would play during the American Civil War. I'm pretty sure the student Carl Schurz who is mentioned in the video is the same Carl Schurz who would lead Union troops about one and a half decades later.
Yes, you are right. He served in the civil war but was also a u.s. Senator.
Also Australia. Many Chartists were exiled (โtransportedโ) from the UK to Australia, profoundly influencing Australian politics and character. By the end of the 19thC the Australian colonies could call themselves โthe working manโs paradiseโ.
They must go back
I really like the last quote of Bismarck in the video. Significant changes throughout history always sparked by ideas and speeches, but the deciding factor to make them reality were always iron and blood.
I got shivers by how good this documentary is. This is what the "history channel" should be.
Amen. It's the first time I found this topic exciting. I tried several times, but never could get my head around it long enough to care. Now I feel like there should be an educational game about it. Kind of like "Here I Stand."
Nah its Epic History that should incorporate more aliens and conspiracy themed videos. (jk)
@Tolstoy111 Not to mention "Kings of Pain" and "The Pickers." They're utterly compelling...
Mike Duncan on the Revolutions Podcast did a great series on the 1848 Revolutions. One of my favorites was the New Years pact that the citizens of Milan made to quit smoking and gambling so as to deprive Austria of the taxes gained from it.
A huge round of applause to Toby for a great insight into this overlooked revolution, often overshadowed by its earlier counterparts. ๐
Thanks Fin!
@Epic History TV Neigh, stank you Epic, Stank you.
Another fantastic video. I love your videos on modern European history, and this one is no exception. This channel always does a great job presenting the complexity of historical events and covering the factors that influenced important moments. Keep up the great work!
Bismarck playing the March of the Prussian infantry instead of making a statement is so incredibly ominous. That would be incredible to witness put to film
So great to find an amazing history channel that covers the forgotten timelines of the 1700 - 1800โs. I have learnt so much from the napoleon series, and when I tell friends that he invaded Russia and marched into Moscow they can not believe it.
Itโs brilliant to have a break from WW2 and cover this area in history, which ultimately shapes the countries we live in now.
10/10 one of the best history channels on KRclip
I still want to see them do world war 2 though.
can you just imagine the amount of people and ideas there would be if Napoleon and the failed revolutions of the 1800s didn't happen!
so many young men and families died out during this time of wars. and then include ww1-2
I would be extremely interested to see a piece done on Prince Matternich but specially as I am just simply not familiar with him whatsoever ๐ฌ๐๐คฆ๐ผโโ๏ธ
Great work yโall! And thank you!
From one history lover to another you all are AWESOME!
P.S. Your Alexander docs are AMAZING I watch it multiple times every year since I found it lol ๐ช๐ผ
Watch Congress of Vienna by historia civilis
This is amazing, so much of this we were never taught in school. Loved to hear the aftermath of Napoleons Era, I'm so engulfed by the 1800's that I've actually, started ordering books to do more research and eventually write my own book. I've got some perspectives on events which I haven't heard expressed before. Hope to deliver with the same quality and enchantment as Epic History TV, as you are simply the best there is at presenting History. Thank you, you have no idea how amazing you are!
Im reading a cool novel right now called Radetzky March that I bet you would enjoy. Set in late 1800s austro hungary
@Jacob Recht I've heard the melody of the Radetzky March but didn't know there was a book! I'm already looking for a local vendor, thanks a bunch!
I love how epic the EPIC MANโS VOICE sounds even when he says โget-richโ in french in 3:50! Deserves an Oscar.
Charles Nove FTW!
He's Charles Lowe
Oui! "Enrichissez-vouz"! ๐คฃEssentially means "work hard and you will succeed"/"pull yourself up by your own bootstraps" or might as well by some miracle or act of God! Of which we know even to this day that such is utter Bourgeoisie/Hierarchy Continuation BS. ๐คฃ
I hope it's not too late to unite once again...
@Le Ponpon nahh, sounds more like: "Are gas prices too high? Just buy a Tesla!!!!"
I love the use of maps and highlighting when you mention a new country, and also the lines connecting points of revolt. It helps show the context of the revolutions instead of causing them to seem isolated. Also, I am glad you showed the nameplate for every important figure whenever you mentioned them instead of only showing it the first time. This repetition of names really helps remember and differentiate between which figure was in which region, etc. I'll be showing your videos to my classes!
Absolutely masterful. I've always been interested in the events of that year, but it was so chaotic and in so many places at the same time that I never managed to get a solid picture of it in my mind. Now you've done that for me, and I can't thank you enough!!
The fact that very few people remember this pivotal point in Western history is shameful. Great work!
Mostly because it's left ignored during school time...
Thatโs by design
Governments, even democratic ones, don't want you to know this
You are in a long and arduous path to enlightenment, friend.
An awesome video! However, I think it could be a series, going more in-depth and starting with 1830 (and the revolutions/uprisings in France, Belgium and Poland). I'm glad that you at least mentioned the November Uprising at 1:31.
You presented the Polish aspect of the revolutions of 1848 quite well. I'd like to add that Polish volunteers (many veterans of the November Uprising) joined practically all the other revolutions across Europe. They were particularly numerous in Hungary, including three generals. One of them - Jรณzef Bem, distinguished himself in particular.
Meanwhile Ludwik Mierosลawski, after leading the unsuccessful Greater Poland Uprising (that's the one briefly mentioned by the Germanized name of the region's capital Poznaล at 14:32), fought in Palermo and then in Baden and the Palatinate.
You got that right. Jarosลaw Dฤ browski, a red veteran of the 1863 Polish uprising was the head of the Communard militias during the Paris Commune.
@Artur M. I am still working on my Bem video (I know, I haven't been the fastest, but oh well), it would be a great tie-in for this, but I'm not sure when it will be done, stay tuned tho. :) The script, maps and some assets are done at least.
@Milรกn Seres That's great news!
(Everyone, go check out Milรกn's channel, especially the video about Bem, and the one about Emperor Julian 'the Apostate'.)
What was the Greater Poland uprising all about? I mean, what did they achieve before they were defeated by the Prussians?
@Rennor Well, in short, it was about fighting for independence (admittedly, not a realistic goal), or at least for greater autonomy of their region - with increased liberties; national and civic alike, which didn't seem that far-fetched, given the revolution raging all around. At the very least, the insurgents wanted all of the rights Poles were supposed to have, according to the Congres of Viena, fully respected. But in the end, it had the opposite effect; the Grand Duchy of Posen/Poznaล (German: Groรherzogtum Posen; Polish: Wielkie Ksiฤstwo Poznaลskie) lost all of its autonomy and became a regular Prussian province. Later, harsh policies of Germanisation followed.
BTW in 1846 there already was a failed attempt at starting an uprising in Greater Poland, also led by Mierosลawski, which sometimes is counted as one of the Greater Poland uprisings, making it 4 in total. The ones in 1807 and 1918 were actually successful, so that's a 50% rate, far better than uprisings in other partitions. ๐
Fun fact: two American Civil War colonels (eventually brigadier generals) of the Union army: Wลodzimierz Krzyลผanowski and Jรณzef Kargรฉ were Polish veterans of the uprisings in Greater Poland in the 1840s (Krzyลผanowski took part in that flopped one in '46, although some sources mistakenly claim he fought in '48).
I was in pure joy when noticed new video of this channel is out. All the bits and pieces to give us the insightful story of particular moment in history - this channel does an indescribably good job. There are so much covered and so much to cover in our history. Well wishes from Lithuania.
Remember kids, if you get overthrown in a revolution...just head over to England!
Advantages of already being a liberal constitutional monarchy (I am not English btw).
Ironic how Napolean III is also exiled to England's after being defeated in Franco-Prussian war
@Golmar it's even more ironic that Napoleon III was a policeman during the time when England recruited alot of policemen
This channel is the only one that I've actually gone on patreon for just to watch a video early. Something about this content feels like the perfect blend of independent creation and the history documentaries that used to show on TV when I was younger. That's not to say other channels are bad, not by any means. But these videos in particular have some sort of secret ingredient.
The Napoleon series always left me wanting more.
it is the voice
Epic History TV really never fails to deliver profoundly entertaining History content!
Never disappoints. This topic is not covered as often as it should be. Great job
I do find it interesting that the countries where the monarchs refused to negotiate with the reformers and accept a constitution and some limits on their authority all eventually lost their thrones (and their lives in the case of Russia) as a result of violent revolution and war. Every monarch that accepted the reformers demands for constitution and limits to the monarch are still in power even if they are just figureheads. I.E England, Holland. Denmark are all constitutional monarchs that are mostly figureheads and all the power lies with the Parliament.
Exactly and because those monarchs held a high position in their country's politics they gradually lost credibility with the people when their countries continued to face poverty and got involved in long drawn out wars that they ended up loosing.
@martinmorles1 Yeah, I don't think a single one of the monarchs that refused to negotiate with the reformers survived WW1 which isn't surprising since at least three of them were responsible in some way for starting the war.
@Donald Vincent the monarchs shunted the responsibility, and thus the potential wrath of the people when things went wrong, onto the democratic assemblies. Quite clever actually
@Jamie Ngo Exactly. I honestly think that is the main reason why they so eagerly went with the constitution the assemblies demanded. They had witnessed/read what had happened in 1789 France and in England with Charles I.
@martinmorles1 Just like capitalism today. People are only getting poorer and poorer now. Happened once already in 1929. It will happen soon again.
I get shivers everytime we see a new photograph from that time, to think of what innovation that was and how many historical event, major characters or even common people we didn't get to see. And those few moments that got immortalized make you breath the past.
The execution of Robert Blum on the 9th of November started a series of big events in German history on a 9th of November:
1918: Proclamation of the German Republic (the Weimar Republic)
1923: Hitlers failed Beer Hall Putsch
1938: Night of the broken glass
1989: Fall of the Berlin wall
All on a 9th of November. It is so much that the day is not a public holiday because it would be unclear whether it would be a day of celebration or of grief
Thanks for sharing that
BeWe, Robert Blum was executed in 1848. The Weimarer Republic was proclaimed 70 years later. After the first world war the King William II was kicked out of the country.
Celebration! The past is the past, they should celebrate reunification.
Why no both?
Celebrate during the day, mourn in the night
I love your videos so much, it really ignites my passion for history. I wish I would find books that replicate your narrative style (offering a high level overview of the politics, but also narrating the smaller details in an interesting manner)
Awesome video guys , one of the best history channels out there! The music and narration is so tense, thrilling.
It's a shame how after all that buildup the revolutions of 1848 did not live up to people's expectations , Bicksmark is right , many times speeches and small scale uprisings are not enough to garentee that reforms will come and more gruesome methods are needed as a lot of later reforms came as a result of war.
I really liked this video, it is explained in a very interesting way and, at least for me, it's always good to watch and hear something related to the XIX century, often abandoned compared to the XX.
I would just make a note: In minute 31:32 when there's the map with the unification dates of Germany and Italy, both have the 1871 year. In reality Italy unified ten years earlier, 1861. Thanks for this video.
Learning about this makes the context of WW1 make so much more sense with all the tension going around. Fantastic work.
Outstanding work gentlemen! Another beautiful spectacle of history coming to life. 1848 is indeed infamous for the massive wave of revolutionary action and reform but never before have I seen any channel display the year on such an engaging platform.
The king awaits your next masterpiece!๐
You guys teach history better than universities, hope you make your way through education in history universities all over the wo๐ฅ
Its actually just one man behind all this!
@Hannibal B he does research, editing and narration?
@Best narration is done by Charles Nove, a different guy who works with EHTV
No they don't. Unless you went to the shittiest University on earth, or more likely you didn't go to Uni at all and are just parrotting everyone else that makes these claims on YT. This is a great overview but it doesn't even scratch the surface of more in depth history courses on this subject, especially in terms of analysis
Mike Duncan has the absolute best and most thorough answer explanation of this conflict on his podcast called Revolution. I literally cannot give enough praise to how PHENOMENAL a job he did
Brilliant video, every single one gives me chills. It's insane how you keep impressing us and teaching history.
This is genuinely one of the most fascinating history videos I have ever watched on KRclip. Great job.
I'm so relieved that this rare quality content is still produced on this platform.
Please keep up and congratulations on your work. Splendid job!
Hope you'll do a biography series of Metternich, Talleyrand and Richelieu.
Epic and great video with exceptional quality as usual. I have been reading the book โ1848: Year of Revolutionโ written by Michael Rapport and I find this video very helpful for me to watch when reading the book for better understanding of the Revolutions of 1848.
Another book I could 100% recommend about the revolutions is the โrevolutions of 1848 a social historyโ by Priscilla Robertson
@SC Sports Thanks for your recommendation! I shall go check it out soon.
Thanks for the recommendation; I just bought the book!
Radetzyk, one of the few really strong military commanders we ever had. And he got a musical score from one of the best composers to ever live, no wonder you used it. It is really catchy.
Austria victories against the Ottoman Empire are nothing to be scoffed at.
Eugene of Savoy, Leopold von Daun and Archduke Charles are the top 3
Eugene of Savoy. Even if he was not Austrian (he was French and Piedmontese) he fought for Austria and was the Creme de la Crรจme.
So interesting to see how Europe tried to make a change in relative peace and by good ideals, to end up solving them by force for the next 100 years, such an important part of modern history no school teaches nowdays
I can't believe how much historical events happened in just this tumultuous year alone, really! I've never encountered all of them in such a compressive manner before, really.
Your videos are insanely good, as always !!
I hope youโll get one day into the โ100 years warโ between France and England (including the war of religions). So many important things happens within this wide time period but itโs often overlookedโฆ
Yet another brilliant video by epic history tv, honestly the best historical channel on youtube well done ๐๐
You should do a series on the French Revolution, it'd be awesome!
Great idea !
He kinda already did
@Tisenet his napoleon series only slightly touched the topic
@Simon Hagsten-Nielsen heads will roll
@Tisenet He definitely has not
I have recently discovered some genealogical information about family ties to 1848-49 in Germany. This video was very timely!
I genuinely look forward to the videos on this channel. Beautifully made as always.
Great video on a sometimes bewildering topic. In Britain we typically don't learn about any of this stuff since the scale of change was much slighter.
A truly fascinating story not known widely enough. Superbly researched & presented as always
Great job! Your videos are epic! You always inspire us to strive for greatness and learn lessons from remarkable events in history โค๏ธโจ
One of the most fascinating and somewhere neglected part of history! I was really hoping to hear the Radetzky march ๐ during the Italian part of the video. And it was there indeed!
Watched first 4 minutes and I'm totally in love. It reminds me my exam at the University (I studied History) when I got a question about background of 1848 revolutions. So I was talking about censorship, no free press etc. Then doctor said: "Ok, that's all correct, you have no free press etc., but imagine you had a good job and a decent life. Would you like to revolt?". I replied: "No". Then doctor said: "Exactly" and elaborated more about economic reasons. Thanks Epic History TV for in depth view of the events!
Economic reasons are the most important and the most underrated one. French revolution of 1789 had also began after a particularly bad famine. Before that, most people had either happily or begrudgingly stayed under monarchy for centuries.
I really like how your presebt things. some youtubers present things that leave a bad taste in my mouth of a particular viewpoint, but you do a very good job of somehow both expressing the spirit of the age while remaining even, professional, and wholistic.
He does a have a little of the โthe people = the mob = bad = seperate from the REAL people ๐โ monarchic-type power endorsement POV, maybe to please the powers that be that arenโt listening and donโt care, or maybe heโs just been influenced by that mentality himself. Either way itโs not a ton of it, considering the subject matter there could be more.
Amazing show. You took something I always thought was kind of boring and made it... EPIC. Thanks. I guess I should get my book on this topic out again.
Very well done. Did not expect anything less from my favorite History channel ๐
I imagine Napoleon giga troll face in the coffin in 1848
Also, thanks for these video. Literally I get appassioned to every topic you touch. Thanks for your outstanding works
Ikr
Very well made. Great improvements to the way the stories are being told
Ah Strauss, what a magnificent choice of music! I prefer his sonโs work (but he doesnโt go any bottom than his son). 1848 also saw the abolition of Austria as the sole major political entity in its empire but also the elevation of Hungary as a kingdom within Austria as well as Bohemia. To the point where emperor Franz Joseph was crown king of Hungary and of Bohemia following the events of 1848. It also set the ticking time bomb for its destruction as a multi ethnic empire couldnโt survive and the effects of it still linger on in the Balkans till this day. I would say that the revolution of 1848 could have been easily stopped had the reactionary forces really had taken into heart the alliance made at the congress of Vienna. especially in Germany where I think there was more support for their kings and states as only the intelectual class weโre rebelling. The working class only joined them because they were not being fed and paid better not because they felt that they couldnโt express their political ideals. So it was the joining of the working class with the intellectuals that made the revolutions even possible and once the working class stopped supporting the intellectuals, the revolution ended as the working class May have been more inclined to support their king Ana state over the intelectuals
Ethnic tensions in the Empire only really flaired up in the last days of the first world war, and was more a case of people trying to figure out what to do once the Empire was gone. Even into 1917 there wasn't anything out of the ordinary in terms of unrest
@Jack Walters well true but In a way it still remained there. Not necessarily with the Hungarians or Czechs but with the Serbs. Also the huge mixes of other minorities in different parts of Austria Hungary also lead to nations wanting some regions of the empire. For example when Austria annexed Bosnia Herzegovina, it angered Serbia who envisioned a grater Serb empire at the expense of Austria Hungary as it had a significant Serb population. The Romanians wanted parts of Hungarian Transylvania as it was home to a significant minority of Romanian people and the Italians wanted the Tyrol as it hold Italians there. Plus it also showed that because there was a huge mix of nationalities there wasnโt a common thing to unite the people of the empire other than the emperor. It had the problem that the former Yugoslavia had: too many nationalities or constituencies that had different needs or view of doing things and when there itโs a unifying leader to hold the country together then it breaks apart. The reason why it took WW1 to break the empire was because after the death of Franz Joseph, Austria was militarily weak relying exclusively on German aid to hang on and also because it was also economically weak to continue the fighting. In 1848 Austria was also weak but what helped them was the military success of Radetzky in Italy, the crushing of the rebels in Vienna and the intervention of Russia against the Hungarians. Had Radezky failed against the Italians and the Hungarians successfully won their rebellion then the empire could have been broken easily. Yugoslavia had a leader, on Tito, who brought them military success against the Germans in WW2 but who also understood the complexities of running a state where power was being shared not because it was imposed over by one nationality but agree upon by the nationalities who existed there. Once Tito died and his successor clearly started to favor the people of he was part of, then it began to break apart. Austria by making early concessions knew that it was just playing for time. Even Karl knew that the reforms he wanted to implement wouldnโt keep the empire together because he was not coming on a place of strength as Franz Joseph was with military successes in Italy, Vienna, and Hungary in 1848. So 1848 showed that the Achilles heel of Austria wasnโt the weak military but itโs ethnic composition
I like how Epic History TV is shifting its focus towards social and political history.
Your production quality is awesome. Keep up the good work!
Love this channel, I've watched loads of videos and learned loads! very informative and very clear language. Great work
You know the day's great when Epic History TV uploads๐
Absolutely brilliant. Learned a lot. Can't wait hopefully for the unification of Germany and Italy
Italian reunification as we had our Roman Empire which lasted until 1453
@L Romano While I am not a European, I can surely say that one can't call it Italian "reunification", as Roman Empire was bigger, more diverse and more inclusive than the kingdom of Italy. Emperor Trajan and Hadrian were borned in Iberia, while Aurelian was borned in Illyria. There are several other examples as well.
And please don't misinterpret my message, while Italy undoubtedly has a greater claim to Roman Empire than others, it would be foolish to call it an Italian "reunification" in that sense.
@madhu rawat you're not european and you shouldn't waste time with you... the term Italy already existed at the time of our roman empire and just because size is not the same doesn't mean the different city you control is the same same thing as saying that current England is not England because the one in the past controlled several lands and so it goes is de facto reunification
@L Romano Roman Empire was different and more inclusive than British Empire. Some of the best emperors were borned outside Italy, and Roman citizenship will eventually be granted to every single subject of Rome. Roman Empire started in Italy, it's capital was in Italy, but the empire itself was far more than just Italy. How else could you say that it lasted till 1453?
@madhu rawat if it's pissing me off I'm using Google translator I don't want to translate what you're saying and I don't want to talk about it either because I don't like English bye dude get your idea you're not even European let alone Roman
A masterwork of a historical insight, presenting this brief, staggering era of social upheaval.
Epic History TV, I, and many thousands more besides, salute you.
That photograph of the Barricades in Rue Saint-Maur is amazing. An actual surviving photograph is able to communicate so much.
Absolutely incredible video, really well made and efficiently narrated โคโค
An Epic overview of the revolutions of 1848. Thanks for the clarity of the details that explains what an important years this was for European history.
These videos are beautiful, I love all the work thatโs put into them!

One of the channel that sparks my curiosities about history. Great works! ๐ฅ
This is by far the best video you've ever done, superb, please continue with 19th century revolutionary history, it's fascinating, important and informing.
Every video is more exciting than the next. Love it!! Great job Epic History TV!
"The legacy of 1848, for good and ill, will be felt for decades to come". Centuries!
One of the most important yet undertaught/remembered series of events that's helped shaped the modern western world. Really this year should be heavily studied by anyone in politics and philosophy
Personally, I think this is the best video this channel has done. Nicely made!
What a quality content! Great video as always :)
So much going on in this episode very VERY well done!
Impressive work, I can see you are very dedicated to this, keep up the amazing work
As someone in 30s in New Zealand. This stuff is so interesting. We havnt been around long enough to have all those revolutions, wars and things where ppl had to revolt or starve etc. Some ppl like me are so lucky to live in this time in some countries
Very well done. Your videos are always excellent. This one is no different. Thank you.
Always a good day when EHTV releases a new video! Superb work as expected
The Sicilian revolt made me think about the Sicilian Vespers in the middle age, a par of Italian history I never understood, and I hope you'll make a video about that ๐
The springtime of the peoplesโฆ god, the words themselves are so evocative, so powerful. Italians and Germans especially see it as the first step in the process of unification. May 1848 never die in the memory of Europeans๐ช๐บ
Here in Czech republic we learn about 1848 in schools. But from what I remember this topic was very boring and I hoped that we will just skip it very fast. This video gave me much more to understand it than hours in school. Thank you.
Wow, this immediately became one of my favorite videos of all time. Great work!
Iโm really happy and exited when watching the video. Thank you Epic History TV for making such a great content ๐๐
Great episode thank you.
For this period I would have appreciated more details on the political and societal aspects rather than the military ones.
You never fail to amaze ! Awesome job as always
History doesn't always repeat it's self, but it rhymes. Thank you EHTV.
I didnโt even know there was a wave of revolutions in 1848. These videos on failed revolutions just makes me appreciate the successful ones even more (unification revolutions)
First, let me thank you for lending your excellent quality and legendary thoroughness to this extremely important topic. I myself did not learn about the 1848 revolutions until well after college.
With that being said, Belisarius 4 Lyfe.
No need for university history classes! THIS channel does a much better job than any university! Top quality video as always!
I compliment the creators of this video. It was not only really interesting, but really easy to follow. Every time this channel posts a video, I canโt wait to watch it!
Absolutely fantastic as always! Thank you so much for your hard work.
