    Fun fact: Tsar Nicholas II and King George V of Britain looked identical, and they used to swap clothes at dinner parties to prank their guests.
  • @zane9337
    Russia: has poor farmers, and rich, partying nobles France: Hey, I’ve seen this one before! It’s a classic!
  • @lordwither9772
    "There throwing flowers, confetti and HIGH GRADE EXPLOSIVES?!?" I loved that so much that I made it a clip and now it's a joke in my friend group
  • The chances of him reading this is low, but I wanted to thank Oversimplified for making the video and helping me pass my AP exam. I wrote my essay on communism using information almost solely from this video, and managed to score a 5! So thank you!
  • “YOUR UNCLE SEEMS TO HAVE A MILD CASE OF BEING BLOWN UP BY A TERRORIST” FUCKING KILLED ME
  • I love how Disney makes Tsar Nicholas the seconds regime seem like a fun fair country
  • @itsRynzChannel
    I love how he's teaching history but making it funny as well to keep people interested XD
  • "Russia, undeveloped and stuck in the past" Tsar: pulls out a bazooka
  • @CrazyInternetTales
    You have no idea how much youtubers like us look up to you. Thanks for bringing back the incredible content, we love it!
  • @philipe3177
    Was expecting the Napoelonic wars, but this is also welcomed
  • @Zach-ub2ee
    "And even people like you could get a girlfriend" dude uncool.
  • @lataverma738
    When I'm watching your video,it feels like I'm not studying rather watching stories hats off to ya fir making history this much easier
  • @Notakename
    As an American in school who’s reading animal farm, I find this video great to revisit. The book connects itself to the Russian revolution nicely—time to ace my languge arts class 😊
  • @RygielNReeco
    “Your grandfather has a mild case of being blown up by a terrorist” That part got me 😂
  • @xmisted_
    That cliffhanger at the end is so good I feel like it's impossible not to watch pt 2
  • @aleksdreeve8878
    Oh my god my mind is blown. I’m a native russian speaker and just now connected that Bolshevik is the majority from the word bolshe which means more. I was literally sitting here gasping at how I never got it.
