Speechless that this level of a lecture is for highschool students in China. Such a gem.

This man is the gold standard in teaching.

I LOVE you, never had such a great breakdown of German history in my life, been captivated the entire time and you put everything so succinctly, great job
@freeman8990
The problem with modern Germany is that they don't engage in deep reflection. Just wallow in their own guilt.
@AndyAttrition
I am stunned to see chinese highschoolers touching german history deeper than most german history students. Great Presentation!

30 mins in I'm beyond hooked. WOW. The algorithm has finally blessed me with something other than nonsense. This man should be the global standard, what a great brilliant mind! I will definitely dedicate time to study these ALL of these lectures if they;'re nearly as good as this one. This man dives way beyond the topics and basically gives a masterclass in understanding humanity. Just continuously giving value in every word they say. I'm very glad he decided to upload these lectures.

This guy is cooking. Without jumping ahead to the JQ, he is methodically laying down the groundwork.

Wow, I went to a German school, which taught me a completely different history compared to what is taught in this video. While this video had shown me the resilience, innovation and diligence of the German people, the modern German school system has taught me to be shameful of the German past.
@martinweise8172
Absolutely stunning. In todays Germany and all over Europe, you wouldn‘t be allowed to teach that way. Because it‘s the truth! Thank you😍🙏
Königsberg was a German city and the capital of the region of East Prussia, serving as a significant cultural, academic, and political center for centuries before becoming a Russian city. Founded in 1255 by the Teutonic Knights on the site of the Old Prussian settlement Twangste, it was named in honor of King Ottokar II of Bohemia.
The city successively became the capital of the State of the Teutonic Order, the Duchy of Prussia, and later the provinces of East Prussia and Prussia. It was a major port on the Baltic Sea and a key member of the Hanseatic League from 1340 onwards, playing a vital role in trade across Prussia, Poland, and Lithuania.
Königsberg was also a renowned intellectual hub, home to the Albertina University (founded in 1544), and was the residence of prominent figures such as Immanuel Kant, David Hilbert, and Käthe Kollwitz. It served as the coronation city of the Prussian monarchy from 1701, although Berlin was the official capital.
The city remained the easternmost large city in Germany until World War II. Following its heavy damage during the war and its capture by the Red Army in 1945, the city was annexed by the Soviet Union, its German population expelled, and it was renamed Kaliningrad in 1946 in honor of Soviet leader Mikhail Kalinin.
