The 1911-1937 Warlord Era in China.
Dates are year.month.day. Months are represented by numbers.
Every polity is given its own colour. All Chinese polities have the name and photograph of their current leader next to their identifier. They are grouped into factions. "Southern Warlords", "Northern Warlords", and "Neutral" are not coherent groups.
The video ends with the capture of Nanjing on 13 December 1937, since I felt that this date makes the final transition from a state of warlordism in China to a state of national resistance against Japan.

![The Polish-Ottoman Wars (Part 1) [MAJOR ERRORS]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/pcXAn0jl65k/mqdefault.jpg "The Polish-Ottoman Wars (Part 1) [MAJOR ERRORS]
Beginning in the 15th century, Poland and the Ottoman Empire fought a number of wars against each other. These were pivotal in shaping the history of Eastern Europe in this period. The first true Polish-Ottoman War began in 1415, and the last one ended in 1699. I am currently working on a series that will cover every war Poland and the Ottomans ever fought. However, because this is such an immense volume of history, I will be splitting this project into multiple parts. Each part will contain 1000 slides. This is the first part, which covers 1416-1598")
![The Russian Civil War: Every Day [MAJOR ERRORS]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/tLDz5QIjQb0/mqdefault.jpg "The Russian Civil War: Every Day [MAJOR ERRORS]
A detailed map animation of Northern Eurasia between 1917 and 1931, focusing on the Russian Civil War, but also showing some peripheral conflicts.
Independent states are labelled by their country names (e.g, Poland, Hungary, etc.), provisional governments by their government names (e.g., Provisional Government of the Northern Region, Autonomous Chukotka Government, etc.), and holdout forces by their commanding officer (e.g., Semyonov, Nikolayev, etc.)
Chinese warlords are shown, albeit simplified considerably. They are labelled by the short form of their provincial names, so:
Feng = Fengtian
Wan = Anhui
Xin = Xinjiang
Ning Gan = Ninghai-Gansu Ma Clique
Ninghai = Ma Clique
Jin = Shanxi Clique

![The Taiping Rebellion & Second Opium War: Every Day [MAJOR ERRORS]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ypAd9UQ4zmg/mqdefault.jpg "The Taiping Rebellion & Second Opium War: Every Day [MAJOR ERRORS]
A detailed map animation of the various rebellions that occurred in China during the 1850s, 1860s, and 1870s (notably the Taiping Rebellion, the main focus of the video), as well as the Second Opium War, the Anglo-Burmese War, and the Nepalese-Tibetan War.
Dates are year.month.day. Months are represented by numbers. The video transitions to one month per slide after mid-1864 due to the drawn-out nature of the conflict.
Note that there is an error: from June 1862 to late 1863 the Hui rebels besieged Xian (Koopinator is going to destroy me for this).
