Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
World War I was a total war for millions of people in Europe. Many men were enlisted in the fighting, but the war work had implications for the daily lives of a huge number of Europeans. Women entered the workforce in huge numbers, and for a lot of people, the battles raged through their towns, cities, and even their homes. In addition to learning about the homefronts of the war, we're going to look at how the war ended, and how the Paris Peace Conference and the treaties that resulted did little to heal the societal wounds of the war, and in many ways set the stage for the next big war

John Green seems a lot more anarchist and leftist than usual here:
'when do you think the workers will realise they can just seize the means of production and just take back the excess wealth of the rich. Oh we're talking about that next week'- - Socialist
'if governments don't provide people with stability, or just social orders where they can raise their children in peace and some measure of prosperity. what's the point of governments? '- - Anarchist

-JOHNGREEN If you didn't frequently mention the fact that your pronunciation is poor I would have a mind to correct you a thousand times, but since you say it in a way that is so self-deprecating I have no option but to give you a pass and enjoy the videos anyways without prejudice. Thanks for all you guys do, much appreciated!

Our 5th grade class watched crash course US history every day and we loved it. Im in 11th grade now. I-m glad to see this again but it makes me sad to see that he sounds so exhausted. He doesn-t have that high energy and it doesn-t seem like he enjoys this anymore. I hope you get some rest Mr. Green and do stuff that you love.

That definition of total war sounds weird to me. I find that discussion about war in general focuses too much on soldiers, rather than civilians and society. On the employers of violence rather than the victims. When has there ever been a war that only affected soldiers?

I really do miss the larger humorous spin on the older Crash Course series. So much of the world is far too melancholy these days. I just enjoyed escaping into humor and education, together. I believe that it truly did help me feel just a bit happier.

I watched these through high school and still watch you as a grown adult. Thank you for helping my friends and I see how interesting and useful history really is

I'm glad you covered the Eastern/Central European front so much in this. Those parts of the video especially were really fascinating.

I was just having the experience of realising again just how HIGH QUALITY Crash Course is. I'm really glad this exists in the world.

What happens in the interwar years? Also, talk about systems theory and cybernetics (that part of systems science) developing.

The only thing is that people in Europe at that time did not went to war because of patriotism but because of nationalism.
