What I really liked about this video was how you really spoke about it as a WORLD war. Too often I feel as though general summaries of the world wars oversimplify it to the point where they only talk about the european countries involved. It really did involve and affect a huge percentage of the world and I appreciate how you at least BROUGHT UP the african combatants.

Britain actually didn’t join the war until Belgium was attacked.
But otherwise, great video! Can’t wait for your next one.
