While Stalingrad may be the most famous battle of the Eastern Front in World War II, it was not Germany’s most decisive defeat. The Soviet offensive known as Operation Bagration completely annihilated Army Group Center and collapsed the German front line; in part one of this two-part video, we explore how the Soviets outmaneuvered their German foes and broke through their defenses.

  • The animation has gotten so much better over the years
  • Germany: BETTER DEAD THAN RED! Right guys? Romania: ... Bulgaria: Red doesn't seem so bad anymore
  • @Spright91
    The red army was terrifying once it got rolling.
  • I really love the detail at 15:47 with the soviet flag, it's not the soviet flag people tend to picture which came about in 1955, it's the older one, which is only slightly different but the variant of the hammer and sickle is different, and I just like that attention to detail.

    "Konstantin" "Yes Ivanov?" "Do you see Army Group Centre?" "Yes" "I don't want to" "Yes Sir"
  • Germany: Man, all you really need to deal with these Reds is a few dozen mines, am I right, boys? T-34 Mine Flail Tanks: Allow us to introduce ourselves.
  • People like to think the Russians only won by numbers. That's false. The Soviets also won by superior strategy.
  • I'm seeing a lot of complaints that we didn't call out the Soviets for failing to support the Warsaw Uprising. In several weeks we're going to release a video specifically on Life in German-Occupied Poland where we will more properly address this.
  • You've heard of the tree's are speaking Vietnamese, introducing, The minefield is speaking Russian.
  • Germany lost the war in the east after Kursk, but her back was broken after Operation Bagration.
  • Operation Begration: Ultimate GET THE HELL OFF MY LAWN moment
  • I'll never get over that Germany named maybe their most important offensive for a guy who fell off his horse and drowned in a somewhat shallow river
  • Fun Fact: Operation Bagration was named after Pytor Bagration, a great general that served the Russian Imperial army in the late 1700s to the early 1800s.
