You know how in the “What if everything went PERFECT for *Insert Country*” he states that he wont make it “X Country annexes the world, the end” I kind of want him to make a version of that series detailing how a country could conquer the world

Idea: what if the western Roman Empire survived instead of the eastern Roman Empire

[Slapbattler]

“And that is a truly terrifying prospect.” With a man twirling a baguette is hilarious for some reason.

Idea: What if Italy unified during the Renaissance, successfully avoiding the carving of the peninsula by European powers and slowly building an unified state

[julioeverything]

The best Scenario for Italy finding America is if Italy manages to unify then discover America

[farfar]

Spain:LOOK WHAT YOU DID AUSTRIA
AUSTRIA:IT WAS YOUR FAULT SPAIN
France:nice!!!

[Marmatari]

As an Italian, hearing Medishi instead of Medici made me almost sick……But I have to say that you made a good video! Keep going with this amazing scenarios!

Suggestion what if both branches of the house of Habsburg survived (No wars of spanish and austrian succession)

[MisterBoggins]

This would be quite interesting for the Renaissance as the greater wealth from the lucrative Americas (especially those in modern Peru and Mexico) would help further the funding of things like art, statues and philosophy, which would help in the rise of universities and colleges on the mainland of Florence and the rest of the Italian peninsula.

Perhaps the Renaissance would carry on for atleast another century, leading to a resurgence in Italian identity as heirs of Classical Roman civilisation. Another thing to take into account would be the Papal states as that same wealth would enrich the Catholic Church further and empowering their already strong authority.

I love the merch pillow but I think it’s a bit suspicious to have a PH pillow without my friends and family, knowing about your channel

[Maurizio]

Suggestion what if Italy unified during the renaissance?

[danielsantiagourtado]

Love your content! Keep up the good work

[CSquared]

Thank you for always asking the what if’s that I would never even think of.

[InfernosReaper]

To be real, Spain would be struggling to catch up since they have no idea where to go and no ports when they get there, while Italy would be already established.

It's entirely possible Spain ends up somewhere else in the Americas

That aside, it's kinda weird that the Italian Company didn't give way to Italian Unification

I'm sad you didn't talk about Venice at all.
I know the chance of them caring, or participating, is slim (given how ludicrously wealthy trade with the Arab states made them) but the production capabilities of their Arsenal alone make them important for naval dominance.
If we're assuming an Italian trading company, investment from the Venetians and Genoans could give them some much needed naval power; they'd also have a, frankly, stupid amount of money to play with. Obviously, this is unlikely and a little unrealistic, but an pan-Italian mercantile empire is basically Renaissance on steroids, and is cool to think about (and I think in the spirit of the topic)

[OrangeSheepPlayz]

Another great video! I love the work, keep it up!

[Frostyninetail]

Honestly I'd love a what if everything went perfectly for the Netherlands video

[BasicallyBaconSandvichIV]

Could you do a "What if the Dutch Republic conquered the entire lowlands during the eighty years war?"

[zaidb]

[pasbaf]
