Unpopular opinion: I really don’t wanna see the 3rd Punic War 😔

Im probably gonna get downvoted and punished severely for saying this, but just hear me out. The Punic Wars are one of my favourite eras of history, Hannibal is even my favourite general. But the 3rd Punic War is one of the most one sided conflicts in history, and I really don’t think that’s a topic worth waiting a year for. We have had 2 long years of exclusively Roman history, and I for one am starting to get sick of it. I would much rather see Oversimplified cover other parts of history.

What you may ask? Well firstly, Oversimplified never breaks a promise right? If you’d recall, 5 long years ago on their video on the Cold War, they said that the Vietnam War would be ‘Coming Eventually’. Why not finally deliver on that promise? Another topic that I personally would love to see them cover as it fits them so well, is the Sengoku Period of Japanese History, specifically the path of the 3 Great Unifiers. If you don’t know anything about this period I would seriously recommend checking it out. I can already see the outline of it, there are many situations that they could easily make jokes about. For example, the Battle of Okehazama where the Imagawa got Blackout drunk and were in no condition to fight the much smaller Oda Army. Or Takeda Katsuyori’s hot headed go getter attitude. Or Oda Nobunaga’s strange personality. It all just fits so well and I’m surprised they haven’t covered it before. That’s all I have to say, I hope you understand my frustration, I’m probably standing alone here with this, but I just wanted to get it out there, perhaps if fortune smiles on me Oversimplified will take notice and we will get Vietnam and the Sengoku period one day.
