In this third episode on Nader Shah, we move beyond his rise from obscurity and examine how he ruled once he became regent of the infant Shah Abbas III. The video explores Nader’s policies, administrative methods, military taxation, forced resettlements, and the harsh discipline that allowed him to centralize power while placing enormous pressure on the population of the Safavid state. It also looks closely at Nader’s personality: a charismatic and battle-hardened commander who lived simply, inspired loyalty, and often judged with surprising fairness, yet ruled through fear, absolute authority, and relentless military demands. From there, the episode shifts back to war, following Nader’s ambitious campaign against the Ottoman Empire. The story covers the dramatic siege of Baghdad, the brutal Battle of Samarra where Nader suffered his first major defeat, and his remarkable recovery in the Battle of Kirkuk. The episode then follows his Caucasus campaign, his dealings with Russia, the Treaty of Ganja, and his decisive victory at Arpachay, which restored the old Safavid frontiers. This is the story of how Nader transformed from regent into the undeniable master of Iran, setting the stage for his rise as shah and his future eastern conquests.More videos on the history of Iran and the Middle East:Nader Shah #1 - Battle of Herat: https://youtu.be/8NgE0Ec9KB0Nader Shah #2 - Malayer Valley: https://youtu.be/TBvhORjhnWQWere the Eastern Romans and Arabs Always at War?: https://youtu.be/nBMP6yRAOZgGreat Schism Between Greek and Latin Christianity: https://youtu.be/a6rWf0k8d78How Islam Split into the Sunni and Shia Branches: https://youtu.be/-85dXjgMiSURise of the Cossacks: https://youtu.be/UQ_ocyTRRIECrusades From the Muslim Perspective: https://youtu.be/t8RZtYvW02gEarly Muslim Expansion - Yarmouk, Al-Qadisiyyah: https://youtu.be/r2cEIDZwG5M Early Muslim Expansion - Egypt and Iran: https://youtu.be/baHT2nR5Wr4 Muslim Schism: https://youtu.be/-85dXjgMiSU Third Crusade: https://youtu.be/jCyCSgsFXKQ Fourth Crusade: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Vp_IENiSnA&list=PLaBYW76inbX4ZjR4rodOOSc-zL1orP4hW First Crusade: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkyYjpYLORI&list=PLaBYW76inbX6RqjG027zLO_svn3Fdv7Qa Sultanate of Women in the Ottoman Empire: https://youtu.be/OEzS8D4IidA How the German Empire Provoked Ottoman Jihad in WWI: https://youtu.be/8LCpbgVx9kY Ottoman Battles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txyqS5yuw30&list=PLaBYW76inbX5BKGRPzlqdztQySZmJLjJt Why the Ottomans Never Colonized America: https://youtu.be/lM_Wzt_Z228Why the Ottoman Sultans Killed their Brothers: https://youtu.be/vN7LgUIOAVw Cem Sultan: Ottoman Prince in the Heart of Europe: https://youtu.be/3w9POQMt5jk Ottoman Pirates: https://youtu.be/5jguevSDIuY Turkification of Anatolia: https://youtu.be/JBgq1taoUsY Hashashins: https://youtu.be/vG8qmlKdRjs The video was made by Talha Sial, while the script was researched and written by Turgut Gambar.

Previously we have covered the sixth week as in early August 1941, the Soviet Union's vast manpower reserves and relentless mobilization clashed with a stretched and overextended German army, whose initial victories masked growing logistical strain, manpower shortages, and strategic indecision that would soon undermine its eastern campaign. (https://youtu.be/bAxMNXrVr4o). In this episode of our Eastern Front Week-by-Week series, we dive into the pivotal second week of August 1941. As the dust settles over Smolensk and Uman, the Wehrmacht prepares for its next moves—shifting Army Group Center's Panzers to reinforce flanks and support future offensives. But the Red Army isn't idle. In Ukraine, Rundstedt's Army Group South is facing severe supply shortages and mounting losses, while fierce fighting erupts in Odesa during the brutal siege. Meanwhile, Stalin turns to the West, initiating large-scale purchases from the United States and even offering American troops access to the front—highlighting Soviet desperation in the face of mounting disasters. We explore the early mechanics of Lend-Lease and the vital role Allied aid played in sustaining the Soviet war effort. North of Leningrad, Vatutin attempts a daring counteroffensive, seeking to replicate his earlier success at Soltsy. And finally, we turn to Zhukov’s assault on the Yelna salient—his first major operation since Khalkhin Gol—as Soviet forces begin to recover from the shocks of Operation Barbarossa.Eastern Front of WW2 Week-by-Week: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLaBYW76inbX6ubSghjj0fxjMRvShxAUGTEastern Front Podcast: https://theeasternfront.podbean.com/e/eastern-front-prelude-01-the-russian-revolution-and-russian-civil-war/Pacific War: https://youtu.be/MEgIHN63ojU?list=PLaBYW76inbX4kE52CPUvx8gZ7CQyjweEgModern Warfare: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLaBYW76inbX4NYr_WkbaW5KfYwqTAxn08Winter War: https://youtu.be/1Uk5bY22RSEKhalkhin Gol: https://youtu.be/GGwUlET2tbwVideo: Hazimin ArifScript: Russell HellyerVO: Devin http://bit.ly/3XzSCgV & http://bit.ly/3GUO9iT✔ Merch store ► https://teespring.com/stores/kingsandgenerals✔ Patreon ► https://www.patreon.com/KingsandGenerals✔ Podcast ► http://www.kingsandgenerals.net/podcast/✔ PayPal ► http://paypal.me/kingsandgenerals✔ Twitter ► https://twitter.com/KingsGenerals✔ Facebook ► https://www.facebook.com/KingsGenerals✔ Instagram ►http://www.instagram.com/Kings_GeneralsProduction Music courtesy of Epidemic Sound: http://www.epidemicsound.com00:00 – Wehrmacht Shifts Strategy After Uman and Smolensk01:56 – Lend-Lease Origins and Stalin’s Plea to Roosevelt03:54 – Army Group South Struggles with Supply and Losses06:50 – Odesa Siege: Romanian Assault Turns into Slaughter08:45 – Vatutin’s Soltsy-Style Counterattack and German Response11:32 – Zhukov’s Offensive at Yelna: Beginning the Soviet PushbackBibliography: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1YHEBxE3mYal5nfsaXl62_3JYsrljOktaC5c6QIMgta8/edit?usp=sharing#WWII #OperationBarbarossa #EasternFront #KingsAndGenerals #HistoryDocumentary #MilitaryHistory Learn more about your ad choices.
