Decolonization and Nationalism Triumphant: Crash Course World History #40
Economy | Information | History | Online | Facts | World | Global | Money
READ THIS: THERE ARE TWO MORE VIDEOS IN THE WORLD HISTORY SERIES. You should also turn on the captions. You'll like them. In which John Green teaches you about the post-World War II breakup of most of the European empires. As you'll remember from previous installments of Crash Course, Europeans spent several centuries sailing around the world creating empires, despite the fact that most of the places they conquered were perfectly happy to carry on alone. After World War II, most of these empires collapsed. This is the story of those collapses. In most places, the end of empire was not orderly, and violence often ensued. While India was a (sort of) shining example of non-violent change, in places like The Congo, Egypt, Rwanda, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos, things didn't go smoothly at all. John brings you all this, plus pictures of Sea Monkeys. Sadly, they don't look anything like those awesome commercials in the comic books.

In fact, the Tutsis and the Hutus in Rwanda werent completely different tribes, before colonitation they were part of the same society, the Tutsis were the ruling class and the Hutus the rest, during the colonitation english officers turned each group against each other and gave the Tutsis all the colonial jobs saying they were a more advanced race and when the british left they really hated each other.

Stop using the word socialism to describe communism. It discredits demo-socialism by associating it with the communism in the USSR. At least explain the definition of the words u use.

"We never saw what happens AFTER the rebels defeated the empire!" And less than a week later, the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy was announced. Timing, man.
