The US 26th cavalry, Phillipine Scouts, were the last mounted cavalry in the Army, they fought the Japanese ferociously, charging them in a number of engagements.Unfortunately they were decimated in all the actions and the horses snd mules were used as food in the last desperate days before the surrender,Bravo Cavalry!
This channel is so good
White Gold by Miles Milton if any wants to read more about this.
Morihori were already here before the maoris. This narrative is to protect maori claims as original peoples of this land but they werent morihoris were here 1st
Very sad and tragic this happened to the Moriori people, however, that's what happens when a society is almost like a Utopia for too long. Eventually a lot of the people become softer ,weaker, decadent and very naive. In a way the Moriori became like the Dodo's.
Poor buggers 😮
Viva o nosso imperador 💪🤠🇧🇷
as a Māori man I never knew about this part of my culture. Every interesting you learn something new every day. ☝🏽❤️
They weren't cowards they were tired of living a life of violence there were just as war like as the Maori before taking the vows of nonviolence they were tired and sick.of war bloodshed as the solution for every thing
People can't help but destroy themselves everything around them
Based chads, all i can say. When you think of the civil war, it had lasting affects.
Answer. Because they are French and amatuers at war.
I don't want to hear any Bullshit or crybaby stories from you Maori descendants crying about "The white man taking our stuff" YOUR PEOPLE DID THIS AND WORSE TO THE MORIORI
Since you mentioned last pure blood Moriori has died can you tell me or anyone tell me if their any pure blood Māoris left too or what 🤣💀 cos they seem to not acknowledge that .
From the outset you have a photo of our tuupuna Tamati Waka Nene in the introduction, then other Rangatira who had nothing to do with this - even got a cheek to put a photo of Kiingi Taawhiao on your video. Rubbish video that doesn't even match the half pai koorero!!
To be honest some of the things Maori did in the past make this seem like a tea party,best never to look into the facts ...it is sickening what humans can do to others.
In 1835 when Charles Dawin arrived in the Beagle he refered to New Zealand as the land of murder, cannibalism and atrocious crime. Obviously the passive Moriori and weaker tribes wouldn't stand a chance against the more powerful tribes, so would be ripe for collaboration with the British Empire for revenge. Divide and rule said Julius Caesar two thousand years ago.
They we're never all Irish or Catholic - immigrants.
Yeah, the Moriori sound remarkably stupid.
The video itself only shows repeat images of Maori people across different eras. One picture showed survivors of the Orakau massacre/siege(1864), in 1914. They could have read parts of the journal from the whaling ship, the Lord Rodney. The journal actually offers such an interesting perspective into their situation and the crews opinions of what was happening. Even though the ship was seized, the Maori Chieftains paid for the service, and gave the crew food from the stores that the Maori brought.
This was a fascinating tale and another horrific display of “man’s inhumanity to man.” Thank you for such thorough research and captivating narration and images.
I wouldn't say thorough. They leave out a lot of information and names. Likely because they're reading from a Wiki page.
@@makoent2231 Why assume that? Also, that would be one helluva long Wiki page! I said thorough, not complete. Name any group in civilization who can be summarized in this time span. I get it. Sometimes we all get salty bc we’re in a mood or it’s a sore spot in terms of the topic. Can we try to be kind to each other? I need to remind myself to do so. Cheers.
@@genghis_connie It's almost word for word from wiki, and they repeat themselves every so often. Half the video isn't even about the Moriori. Lindy, Oversimplified, and Cogito do a much better job of explaining and simplifying events of civilizations in either shorter or longer videos, with accurate information and citations. Not sure who is insulting whom.
@@makoent2231 Thanks for the heads up on other creators. Yeah, Wiki info as a solo source isn’t great. It’s a good intro to a topic, very much depending on the topic. I have yet to check.
White European slavery is the main reason North African countries are now predominantly white people. European slavery did not start with the Barbary Pirates, it began at least 2,000 years before with the Carthaginians, Persians, Ancient Greeks, Romans, Vandals, Franks, Holy Roman Empire, Arabs/Ottoman, Vikings & Byzantines.
In the account that I read of this, the Moriori met and decided to offer the Maori a portion of the island as a way of maintaining peace and coexisting. The Maori used the fact that the Moriori were gathered together in one place to make that offer to the Maori to launch a surprise attack. Then, the Maori proceeded to kill the Moriori men, cook them and eat them.
Close. You're highlighting two different accounts. The Moriori elders in 1835 believed that they should have let the Maori keep the land that they stole, as they ceased their actions of violence for a few days and appeared wary. The Maori stumbled upon the meeting and misinterpreted the meeting as a War Party, and took action the next day. The second part of offering the land came in 1870, when a petition to the New Zealand Government was made to reclaim some of their last land, and the descendants of the Maori Iwi were claiming 'Conquerors Rights'. The response years later was that the Moriori would receive 2.3% of the land back, and the Maori keep 97.3%. By which point in 1870, there were only 101 Moriori left. " The Moriori failed to gain any title on Pitt or the outlying islands, which were part of their traditional food sources. The judge had chosen to base his decisions on Māori rather than Moriori customary law, and to recognise their right of ownership by conquest. Moriori believed that they held on to the mana of the land by adhering to their ancient laws of peaceful occupation." The Invasion itself took the lives of 108 women and 118 men. Their names are listed in the manuscripts by Hirawanu Tapu, a survivor the genocide who had documented their entire history, culture, language, and the events of the genocide up to the refusal of the Government to act or recognize their people. 1,336 died from abuse, disease, and despair while they were enslaved between 1835 to 1870.
Instead of Natsume Masayoshi, I think Kusunoki Masashige should've made the list. He single-handedly ensured the survival of the Emperor and future Imperial line, thus helping to preserve the vital Japanese institution that continues to this day.
They're not Forgotten. They're still an active community in both New Zealand and Chathams. I'm curious about the sources you cited for your information. The only first person account of these events regarding the invasion of Chathams Islands, is in the journal of Mr Shand, from the Whaling Brig, 'The Rodney'. There's a lot of information left out in that regard, and false information regarding the health of the passengers, as well as how they seized the brig.
That is not correct. You should be aware of the 1859 and 1862 petitions by 30 Moriori elders to former Governor Grey. The horrors of the 1835 invasion and genocide are detailed by the survivors, including a list of names and how they died (murdered, eaten or died in slavery).
@@snuscaboose1942 What isn't correct? You can't even name the people who wrote the manuscript. Hirawanu Tapu is the person you can't name. He talks about the horrors of the invasion, and how most of that isn't mentioned in this video. The Lord Rodney accounts that I mentioned earlier, are also not talked about in this video, and those accounts are also documented. The video is referencing something different from the real accounts from the real journals and manuscripts. It's going off with misinformation.
@@makoent2231 The documents are online, no need for the drama.
@@snuscaboose1942 I know. I just referenced them. And this channel decided not to research them.
The Maori are some of the most vicious colonizers the world has ever known
Interesting story
Moral of the story: pacifism is fine unless dealing with invaders. Better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a battlefield.
things like this is why european thought it was their mission to civilize people, even in current year this still happen in failed states or that one whole failed continent i won't name
Still think white colonists were genocidal monsters?...read a book or better yet, watch this channel.
Some of the images used when describing Moriori history are actually Māori not Moriori. An easy way to tell is any images where the people have tattoos is an image of Māori as Moriori didn’t tattoo
im sorry but not fighting back or not being aggressiv enough is just stupid, you'll simply vanish in this harsh and brutal world
Savages. The stereotypes always ring true.
Contiplation please. LOve your content
Darwin Award of the century
Personally, the lesson I take from this is that pacifism has its limits. It's a good characteristic to have in normal times, but it can only be pushed so far.
It's the old saying if you want peace 🕊️ Prepare for war..
The normal state of nature is competition over resources, peace is abnormal in nature.
They're not Forgotten. They're still an active community in both New Zealand and Chathams. I'm curious about the sources you cited for your information.

I'm from NZ :) This bit of history is 'swept under the rug' As if you weren't a legend to me already; this is just immense. Thank you SO much for covering this!
It has never been swept under the rug. It's brought up so many times, and often with misinformation.
@@makoent2231 Sure. 🙄
@@kev1734 Why do you think, if you're capable of that, so many people know about the genocide in the first place?
Thats what happens when you become a pacifist
Like most of the West..
Oh this must be where Mormonism got their "golden plates" ... follow up james Spaulding
I miss the longer videos
Samoa and tonga > the maori
so they decide to leave triblism behind and live like the white people of the world... and are then enslaved and slaughtered by blacks... gotta love it
Thanks Unknown5! Love this channel 🫡
Absolute best days when these drop unannounced 🙌💯🦅
Ah yes another happy ending…
2018 consensus of the Moriori is that they number less than 1000 today.
they live in Australia cos of the welfare and higher wages
Do they continue to preach pacifism or learned the lesson?
Way more than true blood Maori
@@iwaswrongabouteveryhthing😂😂😂😂
If there is less than1000 of these people, then they should be given all the help they can get, if it was a kiwi bird or some other endangered speices all stoppers would be avalible to help. !!
