Thank you for being so positive about Britain. Our history is your history and yours is ours. It's important that we always remember our ties and get along together. It's always enjoyable to watch your video reactions, as you obviously know and love history and can't get enough of it.

History matters is criminally underrated.

I wasn't expecting to hear about that conversation between John Adams and the King in this video but I'm glad you included this. I'm honestly moved by what they said to each other

[thatlife]

"Did we just become best friends?"
"Yup!"

As an Australian anglophile, I love that you have a positive view of Britain. I'd love to see you do a reaction about something Australian-centric. Both the Gallipoli (WWI) and Kokoda (WWII) campaigns played hugely important roles in forming Australia's identity, and though it is often spoken about here, I rarely see it given much attention outside of Australia and New Zealand. I would love to see your take on it.

Commenting on your channel from across the pond. It's too easy and simplistic to go along with a lot of the rest of Europe's narrative about the problems with the USA. And although like every country America certainly does have it's problems, I'm a big fan of many aspects of your nation and absolutely will be visiting some day in the not-too-distant future. We share so much in the way of values and traditions and aspirations for the world at large and are far far better off being closely allied than at loggerheads. Love your videos man and respect for your love of the UK too, wholesome af. All the best.

John Adams is one of my favorite series. Really helped me understand why John Adams is so underrated as a founding father.

You really should do more history matters, they make short videos so you can add more information and elaborate a bit more

This is great, two channels I've been hoping you'd cover for so long, Historia Civilis and History matters, and you start reacting to them in the same week :D

It's so awesome to see so many people saying great things about Britain. I love my country, and it genuinely warms my heart when I hear so many others do as well.

[DrDaveDavington]

I don't know why but the conversation between Adams and George made me tear up a little

[tylerallen]

As an english person i love America and its amazing culture, good video!

[nevize]

I love to see people from other countries loving other countries, heartwarming

History matters has some longer 10 minute videos doing deep dives which I would think are a little more your pace. He said he shifted to 3 minute videos because the 10 minute ones were getting demonitized, and were more production heavy. Whereas the 3 min ones are less production heavy and since there is more quantity, it's less likely that the videos will get demonitized

When 9/11 happened, a good chunk of Britain felt *personally* affronted as if it had occurred in our own realm. There's a reason that the British public started off supporting going to Afghan for war; the Anglosphere had been harmed.
Equally, and this is anecdotal, when my mother visited the US she saw several times where Americans would thank British (and Australian) service personnel for their service as if they were American soldiers.

The Anglosphere has simply returned to its natural state; the Anglo Saxon multi-kingdom model, where we have different Kings, different policies, but by Gods if you attack one you attack us all.

So nice to have a break from all the arguments between our nations, The Uk and The USA are both nations who no matter what will see each other through anything

[truthhurts]

3m 50 ish. How could any Englishman respond otherwise than with respect to such a Polite and Considerate address.
Manners matter and maketh the man.

Unfortunately I was already one of the 999K, but wish them luck. They deserve 1M!

If I recall rightly Washington’s administration was not particularly anti-British at all, rather it was Jefferson’s administration was the start of the post-Independence animosity
