[HistoryExplained]

Another great video! Keep up the great work!

[BloodRider]

God, your pronunciation is so much better than in earlier videos. Keep it up

[MAD]

I was showing this video to my dad and he was so confused.
Khemlnytsky is a typical weird Slavic name that isn't pronounced the way it is spelled.

The Kh is not a strong K, but a soft one, and sounds more like Hell, then Kell

Great work. I hope that there will be more collaborations in the future

Władysław Waza's policy with Cossacks was so terrible it turned Poland's most faithful soldiers into enemies. Cossack Registry shouldn't have been lovered to the point it doesn't pay off to fight for your country. And lastly Hadziacz Union should have been signed more early. It would have strengthened eastern frontier with Russia and make Cossacks even more willing to stay under Polish Crown. It would change history making Partitions almost unlikely. That's elective monarchy and giving out power to nobility for you...

Both sides of the conflict during the rebellion were probably predominantly Ruthenian. I'd say it was more of a rich polonized Сatholic Ruthenian magnates(as well as probably many lesser Ruthenian Orthodox and Uniate nobles, as there were actually quite a lot of people that thought similarly to Adam Kisiel, who supported the Polish crown in this conflict, despite being an Orthodox Ruthenian nobleman; a pretty tragic figure) and their private armies vs the lesser Orthodox nobility and burghers in a form of Cossacks, rather than some Ruthenian rebellion against Poland. So it's more economically and a bit religiously driven, rather than culturally. When advancing into the Polish areas the Cossacks also tried to make the Polish peasants join the rebellion, sending letters and calling the to rise up against the opressive nobility, but failed. The nobles(mostly Polish) in PLC were generally huge asses towards the commoners(kings were usually useless in PLC and generally failed to control the nobility) and even came up with Sarmatism to justify their superiority to the common folk, whom they regarded to be of a lesser, Slavic stock, while many nobles claimed to have descended from either Turkic or nomad Iranic peoples, such as Scythnians or Sarmatians. Some of the Ruthenian and Lithuanian nobles got influenced by this tradition and also traced their ancestry to Roxolani, Scythians and Khazars. But generally it wasn't really as popular amongst them(unless they were polonized; but then again, in that case they just became Poles) as it was amongst the Poles.

Can you review, "The Angolan Civil War (1975 - 2002)?"

Bohdan Khmelnytsky was a freedom fighter who only attacked those who oppressed the ruthenian people. He was brutal but ruthenia was occupied by foreign empire for hundreds of years. If your people were occupied for hundreds of years you would do the same.

Hey I enioy your content. Some times it is hard to follow events too far between regions or timelines, so could you group them in playlists?

[zissimus]

Thank you for the video, but I think you made a mistake in the beginning. King gave Khmelnitsky a warrant saying that the land is his. Koniecpolsky tore that letter and impisoned him thereafter.

To everyone who is interested in the history in those times, there is a polish movie called "With Fire and Sword" Ogniem i mieczem. Recommend it!

Just to be clear, there was no Hetman of the Sitch. The Hetmanate and the Sitch were always two distinct entities that quite often competed or were antagonistic to each other

[InternacionalBoxing]

Whole lot of death over that damn Cross

[BigBazz-Clips]

civil unrest in Ukraine? glad that's a thing of the past...

[luxembourgishempire]

Nice video Jabzy. Nice to see you collaborating with Swibne who I also watch. (Hopefully one day he makes a video on us)

[mockdr]

What about what he did to the Jews? You just glossed over that!

Bogdan Mikhailovich Khmielnitski mobilized few hundred thousand Cossacks for 1648-1657 years.
In 1654 he and Tsar were having nearly half of million warriors
