I bring you a short break in the War of the Austrian Succession, and lead you forward to the Seven Years War. I came across this fabulous video on You Tube today about the Battle of Leuthen, 1757. There's so much 'military history' out there these days that is half-baked. Much of it has AI produced pictures or animations that are just so ahistorical that you have to wonder if a knowledgeable human being was involved at all (or just didn't care). 'AI slop' is the appropriate phrase.
The following video isn't that. It has great contextualisation, beautiful animated maps, and, most strikingly, the presenter walking the ground. Together, this gives you a great sense of how things unfolded. Hope you enjoy it.
