No more neck and neck races this time! The Bronze Age Collapse raced away with Patreon poll this month (though Otto von Bismarck had a strong second place showing). It will join the Extra History line-up in summer of 2017!

Current Schedule: Catherine the Great --> Ned Kelly --> Articles of Confederation --> Late Bronze Age Collapse

Polls are useless! The great question of what subjects to cover will not be decided by means of speeches and majority decisions but by iron and blood!

One more topic for the civ tech tree!

Still no Byzantine-Bulgarian wars? Or the 4th crusade and regaining of Constantinople by the Byzantines?

That awkward moment when I get the result email one minute after I get the poll email. <a href="http://imgur.com/a/lnzfc" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://imgur.com/a/lnzfc</a>

That's 9 elections in a row where one of the topics I voted became the series. So close for Bismarck, he actually had a chance since he wasn't completing against Justinian part 2 like during the 8th Vote, which followed the first half of the Justinian series. Oh well, third time’s the charm. It took Bolivar 4 tries and Catherine 3 before they won. Despite casting Bismarck as my second vote, I’m actually glad he didn’t win since we had many topics in the late Modern period already, 8 of 19 series were in the 18th and 19th centuries. So how is the crew going to do this series since it falls more in the realm of speculation and historical theory? The Late Bronze Age Collapse is still a mystery; We don't know why the Bronze Age Eastern Mediterranean civilizations had an abrupt, simultaneous, violent collapse. Was it mass migrations, a supervolcano, climate change, earthquake storms, disruptive technologies? It seems people had trouble with Patreon poll. Deleted votes, unable to read comments, etc. Hopefully when the next election in March, the poll become more stable and there will more features like preferential voting or randomizing topic order, etc.

Thing about history: There's a lot to cover. The Fourth Crusade would be an excellent choice

I'm also curious how this topic will even work. Would it just be covering the various theories?

So how will you sneak Wallpole (sp?) in here?

Great Britain has been naval empire for centuries; would make sense for Walpole to be one of the Sea people leaders.

Whaaaat? That's bizarro-land! Do you usually not get the notification emails until several days after the post? Also (for anyone who hearted this and happens to see it as well), is this happening to anyone else as well? I'm chasing down a couple of bugs with Patreon, but this one would be new to me!

I asked James the same question - how are we going to do it - and he wanted to do this topic specifically because it's more in the realm of speculation and theory. We don't really have a baseline for covering that kind of material in EH type of way yet, and he wants to take a crack at figuring it out. Hopefully it'll be great and open up more areas of history that live in the realm of speculation for us to cover.

James seems to want to treat it like a mystery - basically, we've never done history that's in the speculative realm before, and we want to take a crack at it. We'll see how we do!

Looks like a great lineup.

As interesting as I find the Bronze Age collapse, the main thing I love so much about EH is the incredible personal stories conveyed by this particular style of animated history. While I do definitely look forward to the Bronze Age Collapse series, I have to admit I was really bummed to not have been able to delve into 19th century European politics again with OVB. I think that the kinds of personal stories that can be told by very well documented history tend to lend themselves more to this channel's strong points.
