Hi! I’m the guy who made the Nine Worthies family tree. It’s an absolute honor to have one of my charts featured in a Usefulcharts video!

And just to reiterate what was said in the video, my tree is not to be taken as historical fact in any way. It is purely for fun.

That HRE map is crazy. HRE history is so impenetrably convoluted. Huge props to whoever stuck to that project.

These are some amazing charts! If you haven't already, come join the subreddit. I'm glad you found my composer chart interesting, Matt!

I'm the person from the Parthian Tree! I was so pleasantly surprised to see it here, thank you! Being part of this community and seeing these different styles and topics is always interesting :)

Hey, I’m the guy that made the Dark Ages Tree an entire year ago. I’ve considered joining Reddit for a while now, so I’ll be sure to make new charts for people to enjoy on Reddit in 2022. See all of you there!

as the creator of the prussian scheme chart, i made up some alternate history stuff, and william's older brother apparently didn't enjoy royal duties, so i made up that he refused the throne

[GanoGaming]

Thank you for showing my House Capet family Tree. It has been quite the work and there are still some mistakes in there and some people I missed. Something else to not here is that I only used Male lines which had or whos descendants had some landclaim with a minimal title of count. So there would probably have been a lot more.

As a scientist, I'd love to see a giant genealogy of scientists chart.

You could do a language chart for the First Nations/Native American language families. I've only ever seen maps of the US with the language families listed on it with where they're located and one really poorly done chart in a textbook when I was in grade school. I think a chart like this could gain some major traction in classrooms & with history professors.

The amount of talented people out there is really astonishing, really this is one of those communities that make internet worth it. My favorites gotta be the HRE one, the house of Capet one, the Composers family tree and the Welsh monarchs one, although there are a lot of other great charts too. Happy New Year Matt and everyone!!

Hey! I am the one who made the sioux chart, thanks for featuring me! I made another chart on the east coast natives and another on Ukraine

[djsvarietychannel]

The fact he mispronounced pronunciation makes it ten times better

Matt is the type of guy to read his car’s owner’s manual before he goes to sleep.

[JakeTheGenealogist]

Great video as always! It’s fascinating to see how diverse the chartist community has developed in the last year. Hopefully as this community grows, we can figure out some collaborations…

I’ve been working on a chart of Serbian rulers before the Nemanjići inspired by your royal family charts, the ones that were (mostly) princes rather than kings. I plan on sending it in when I finish it

[jawadhaddad]

I’d like to see the actual genealogy chart of “Emir Fakhereddine Al-Maani Al-Thani” along with some history on his role in mount lebanon, as he is a central figure in the lebanese national narrative and many of the facts we learn about him in history class are vague, exaggerated, and sometimes fiction …. yet many accept the national narrative as historical indisputable canon

[kevinblatter]

Matt, thank you for what you do. I appreciate your efforts to show the relationships between history and our time.

[curtiswfranks]

It would be cool to get the people who made these charts give tours through them (some charts would probably require multiple tours) and post the videos here.

23:52 - That one is shaped uncannily like the eastern British island. Rotated maybe 15 degrees CW, but still close.
