Invicta ~ So admittedly, this is a video game channel, but Invicta also posts some in-depth history videos every once-in-awhile. The gaming is mostly Total War anyway, and that’s already a history-focused series to begin with. Check this channel out if you’re a gamer who likes history.

The French Whisperer ~ Since it’s difficult to explain, I’ll not go into details about the concept of ASMR for those of you who are unfamiliar, but this is an ASMR channel with a historical core narrated in English by a French guy. It appears to be inactive now, but there are plenty of good videos there to watch already.

Suibhne posts animated videos which tell a country’s history. Due to the time required to animate a video, this channel posts infrequently, but the animation is a good change of pace compared to other history channels.

BazBattles is another channel with animated videos that gives the history of important battles based off of historical accounts. The battles are presented in a top-down tactical view which shows the arrangement of military units and their actions. BazBattles is a great channel for lovers of military history, and it can probably help you with your Total War gameplay, too.
