Thank you for this look at Hawaiian history. My only other look was back in the late 1960s, when a female classmate did a report on Liliuokalani, last ruler of an independent Hawaii.

Ah yes, I'd almost forgotten that Articles was four parts. I'll enjoy Kamehameha's story and the WWII episodes in the meantime :D

Matteo Cina

Eh it's fine. Kamehameha is cool and I'm glad we're doing him it's just I was looking forward to the sea people because I'm Sicilian and that's one of the, like, four historical things we're known for

Developers@Work

thanks for the reply But I WANT you to make some videos about this

Christopher Smith

Thanks! Was a good one. =)

Extra History

I totally would. Her life is fascinating.

Extra History

Rob Rath (who wrote these episodes, and also the Bismarck set) is from Hawaii, so this was something he's wanted to write about for a long time!

Extra History

My advice would be don't rely on Patreon to build your primary community, because as much as I love Patreon it doesn't give great tools to attract new people to your work on the site itself. Places like Facebook and Twitter are much better for that. Once you do have people (usually from those sites, or from wherever your work lives) join you on Patreon, though, just remember to interact with the community. They're here because they enjoy your work and they want to support you, so talk with them! ...And don't follow my example, because I've been MIA for about two weeks due to workload. Sorry about that. :\

Extra History

They'll be here, starting on June 24! This is just a two part mini-series (hence the numbering).

Extra History

D'aww. You're kind. <3

Extra History

Oh no! He does not perform the kamehameha. We gave him a cool beard, though?

Extra History

Yay! Happy that you liked it!

Extra History

Glad you're excited! So are we!

Extra History

Happy birthday! Belated, in this case, because I'm a few days late to your comment

Extra History

This one's just a one-off (or rather, a two-off) which doesn't have related closing music because we can't compose that much music, that fast. ;)

Extra History

This one's only two episodes long, but I think they're a very good set! I'm excited for this Saturday. :)

Extra History

I love it too. :) It's always fun to learn about a new subject!

Extra History

Russian Revolution would be a valid topic, and Czar Nicholas was on the voting list rather recently (about six weeks ago, I think?) but it lost. So we won't be doing that one, though we could come back to it in the future!

Extra History

It'll come on June 24! It's the next full series, but this is a little two parter in between the end of Articles of Confederation and the Lies episode for that series.

Extra History

Is that a drinking game or...? I'm not familiar with it.

Extra History

Had to get that one out of the way. ;)

Extra History

Bronze Age Collapse will be the next full series, starting on June 24! Kamehameha is a two-parter, then there will be a Lies episode.

Stephen Watson

You guys should do Sophie Scholl as a one-off sometime.

WaySidecomet

I feel like someone was looking up Dragonball Z stuff and stumbled onto this character by accident.

Developers@Work

Video looks great I too watch videos on YouTube. The best series I've watched out your channel is about starting building a game I'm now working to build my Patreon community so is there any tips you give for me

Matteo Cina

So no sea people?

Martin Ockovsky

Did I ever tell you how amazing you are?

Michael Jebbett

I better see Kamehameha perform the kamehameha, or by Pele I will pull my funding!

Teagan Broadhead

i mean to say i cant wait this is gonna be awesome :)

Veteran of the Mushroom Wars

Amazing!

Teagan Broadhead

i can this is gonna be awesome :) :)

Christopher Smith

The day before my birthday too! It's like a present from the EH crew. Heck yeah.

Darth Revan

Russian Revolution is just outside of the too soon mark. They do series on anything before 1920.

Christopher Smith

Oh my God this was on my list of topics to recommend someday! You folks are amazing, you know that?

Matthew Russell

I'm curious as to why you aren't going with related closing music anymore?

Lucian Agnello

I never knew anything of Hawaiian history either, this is going to be cool!

Jim Land

I actually love the idea of doing a series on the Russian Revolution. That shouldn't be too soon with a 100 year mark.

Pavel Yakushevich

1917 revolution is probably still 'too soon', and it ties in quite a bit into the Great War which was touched already. I'd personally love to see how artists would depict Lenin giving a speech on top of an APC, but I doubt it would happen soon.

Iain Docherty

I'd never heard any Hawaiian history before, so this is definitely an interesting change. I love when people I'd not really heard much about get their own series and they end up being great (another example being South Sea Company)

Jonathan Luoto

Hawaiian history, nice. You're going to make a Russian revoution series this autumn, right? With it being 100 years and all. If you don't, you could make something about Finland, considering that's another 100 year anniversary.

I was expecting the Bronze Age Collapse but I was hoping that Extra History would look at Kamehameha the Great at some point. I've always wanted to learn about him since Civ 5 :D
