🌍 For nearly 50 years, the world lived one mistake away from nuclear war.
From Berlin to Cuba, from Vietnam to Afghanistan — the Cold War shaped everything we know today.

I just released a full-length documentary covering the entire Cold War (1947–1991) — from the first cracks after WWII to the fall of the Berlin Wall and the Soviet Union.

If you enjoy history, geopolitics, or just want to understand how close we came to the edge — this one’s for you.

From the snowy slaughter at Towton to the fog of Barnet, these were the 50 worst medieval battles to be a soldier in — starvation, sieges, longbows, massacres, and no mercy on the battlefield.

🌙 Hey everyone, it’s Historic Slumber here.

I just wanted to take a quiet moment with you all. Over these past weeks, I’ve been working hard to share long, immersive documentaries about wars, battles, and conflicts from all across our shared human story. I truly believe there’s so much to learn — and even find peace — in understanding how these events shaped us.

I know history can feel huge, so I’ve tried to make it easier for you to explore. I’ve sorted all these videos into playlists, grouped by era and theme, so you can follow along or just drift into the parts of history that call to you most. Whether you’re into the clash of medieval knights, the strategies of modern wars, or the legacies of ancient empires, there’s a path laid out for you.

Here’s what you’ll find on the channel right now:

⚔️ Medieval Wars and Battles
🛡️ Ancient Wars: Blood, Glory & Empire
🌍 19th Century Wars
🌐 20th Century Global Conflicts
🔥 Early Modern Conflicts
🪖 Modern Conflicts
📜 War History FACTS

Whenever you have time, feel free to wander through these playlists — let the stories keep you company, help you drift off, or spark a new question in your mind.

And please, keep sharing your thoughts. Every time you leave a comment, I read it. Every single one. Your opinions, your ideas, even your disagreements — they help me grow this channel in a way that stays connected to what you care about. If there’s a story or conflict you want me to focus on next, just tell me. I’d be honored to make it happen for you.

I’ll keep creating and uploading as consistently as I can, and together, we’ll keep traveling through history, one quiet night at a time.

Sleep well, and dream of history.
