  Fun fact. <br>For the Louisiana purchase. The US used a British bank. The French would use the money from the Louisiana Purchase to plan an invasion of Britain. So in a sense the British were funding a French Invasion of Britain.

  I had literally, LITERALLY, just finished watching the original and was looking for a new video then this popped up. 😂

  This was probably one of oversimplified’s best videos. It’s the only one I legit laughed at instead of smirking.

  As a British person I can say that the representation of parliament is so accurate <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7HoZ-ZMSiA&amp;t=980">16:20</a>

  I’ve always been interested in history but you’ve definitely been the reason why my interest came back. I appreciate you keeping us engaged in what you’re saying and watching. I would’ve loved to have you as a history teacher when I was still in school. Honestly being your student would’ve 100% led me to pursuing a teacher career as a history teacher. Edit: spelling mistake apologies. And I’d like to wish you all happy holidays. Stay safe ❤️

  Oversimplified is the only channel where I won&apos;t skip the ads. They are pretty entertaining to watch.

  I always forget how recent US history is.<br>I find myself always thinking that &quot;that can&apos;t only be 200 years ago&quot;

  Judging by the ending, Oversimplified is finally going down the same insane path as the Alternate history hub and “Knowledge” Hub brothers

  This has to be the fastest reaction you&apos;ve done on the channel. This Pig War video reminds me of the &nbsp;great couple of videos &nbsp;Drawn of History has, &nbsp;on the war of 1812. I think the viewers of this channel would love it!

  I literally watched this 3 hours ago and was thinking “When’s my old pal VTH gonna react to this?” And you didn’t hesitate - bravo, sir.
