System of a Nazi Terror – WW2 – WaH 002 – April 1940

World War Two
Published on 27 Apr 2019

In April 1940 in Poland, if you are on the list of Nazi or Soviet non-desirables, there three options: run for your life, be shipped off to a camp, or face the execution squad… if you happen to be Jewish it’s likely to be the fourth option: the Ghetto.

World War Two
4 hours ago
Now… this is a tough episode. It’s also tough to illustrate with images. Many of the events we speak of were, for obvious reasons not documented at the time. As a result we have had to resort to using some imagery that is from later dates when similar events, or the aftereffects of these events were documented on film and photo. We have labeled these images as best we can when it is relevant. Last but not least… do please remember our rules, especially on an episode like this one. Respect the dead and never forget that the only way we can do them justice is to remember their loss and sacrifice.

Siege of Vienna – Charge of the Winged Hussars – Extra History – #3

Leopold knew it was time to get the Holy Roman Empire involved if he wanted to keep Vienna, but it wouldn’t be as simple as asking for a favor. Charles of Lorraine and Sobieski of Poland would be the ones to lead the charge on the battlefield against the Janissaries.

Outbreak of the War Against Humanity – WW2 – WaH 001 – 5 March 1940

World War Two

When the Second World War breaks out, it is at first largely a war between one side of totalitarian aggressors against a portion of the democratic countries of the world defending other totalitarian states. From the first day of the war in Poland, as it already is in China, this will be a war against humanity.

47 minutes ago (edited)
READ THIS AND OUR RULES BEFORE COMMENTING Here it is with some slight delay – the first episode of War Against Humanity, written and hosted by Spartacus Olsson. Due to the delay, this video went public on YouTube and was not in Preview for the TimeGhost army – we apologise for this – the next WaH video will be given in advance. To be clear it is the support of the TimeGhost army that enables us to continuously expand and improve our coverage – if you haven’t already, consider signing up on timeghost.tv or https://www.patreon.com/TimeGhostHistory – Now, we have age-restricted this video of our own accord because of the extremely graphic content in some sections. While we are of the opinion that it should be available for anyone over the age of 15, YouTube does not offer us that possibility. We apologise to our viewers that are in that bracket, but we felt that it was more important to protect children from exposure to this kind of violence without the help of an adult to digest it.

Hey all! We are here with the very first episode of Out of the Foxholes in which we answer YOUR questions.

Don’t just write it in the comments, but submit it on our community Forum by adding it as a topic (read the instructions first please) -> https://community.timeghost.tv/c/Out-of-the-Foxholes-Qs

While the Winter War rages on in Finland, Japan is confronted with a dilemma. Keep fighting the Chinese and face huge problems feeding the populace in Japan and their newly conquered territories or withdraw and face your own populace to whom you’ve promised a glorious victory.

World War Two
2 days ago (edited)
New week, new video. A special one, since this one covers my birthday. Well, it would have if i were 54 years older… Anyhow, the Japanese are in trouble this week. At the same time, the Finnish are not as much in trouble as the Soviets would like them to be, but the pressure of the Soviet attacks is building up. Meanwhile, the Allied forces present a plan to actually intervene in the Winter War, in favour of Finland. A – for the Allies not at all unconvenient, side-effect would be an extra bonus. Talking about a convenient side-effect: If you support us on Patreon, we will be able to create ever more content. Right now, we’re working on the first biographies and more specials. We love to be able to bring those to you weekly, but we’re not there yet. Check out or Patreon page on https://www.patreon.com/TimeGhostHistory.

40:1 – The Battle of Wizna – Sabaton History 001

Filed under: Europe, Germany, History, Media, Military, WW2 — Tags: , , — Nicholas @ 04:00

Sabaton History
Published on 7 Feb 2019

Sabaton wrote a song about the Battle of Wizna, called 40:1. When the Germans invaded Poland in 1939, they met determined and fierce resistance. Multiple battles show the steadiness of the Polish defenders, in contrast to the common narrative about the Polish defence. One of these Battles is the Battle of Wizna, where a Polish defensive force managed to hold off a much larger German army for several days.

Conflicts & Wars In The Aftermath of WW1 I THE GREAT WAR Epilogue

Filed under: Europe, Germany, Greece, History, Military, Russia, WW1 — Tags: , , , , , — Nicholas @ 04:00

The Great War
Published on 17 Dec 2018

In our last epilogue special we outline the wars and conflicts that followed World War 1, some of them immediately and some of them with only a brief period of peace. Even in 1919 it was already clear that “the war to end all wars” didn’t in fact do that and that the new world order would be shaped by violence.

hey guys and girls, with this last video, our epilogue series is over and this was the very last episode featuring Indy. Again, this was more meant as an appetizer for the future of the show now. When we filmed this, we didn’t know, yet that we could continue working on the show. We will make an announcement about what to expect next year this week. Cheers Flo
