History of the World Part I	comment	History of the World Part I is a 1981 sketch comedy film written, directed produced by and starring Mel Brooks.Starting out with the Dawn of Man, cavemen discovering fire, cave paintings, and the art critic, the film skips to various 'important' areas of history usually with a unique interpretation of the events. Following this, the film touches on Moses receiving the Fifteen... er, Ten Commandments then takes time to waltz through the Roman Empire and end up at the Last Supper. They then sing and dance during The Spanish Inquisition, though nobody expects it. The French Revolution comes next with Brooks playing King Louis XVI and the piss boy (Don't Ask) that turns into the Prince and the Pauper though it ends well through a miracle. Before the credits are 'Coming Attractions' for History of the World Part II. The entertaining, history-based nature of this film makes it an example of The Abridged History.Fun Fact: The melody for the song "Jews In Space," which closed out the film, was later recycled for another Mel Brooks film, Robin Hood: Men in Tights, while the concept itself evolved into Spaceballs, with its Druish Princess.Other members of the cast include Dom De Luise as Emperor Nero, Madeline Kahn as Empress Nympho, Harvey Korman as Count de Monet, Spike Milligan as M. Rimbaud, and John Hurt as Jesus. Orson Welles provided narration.On October 18, 2021, forty years after the first part, an actual History of the World Part II was officially announced in the form of an eight-episode sketch series produced for Hulu, set to premiere on March 6, 2023. Brooks is set to return as executive producer and writer, joined by Nick Kroll, Wanda Sykes, and Ike Barinholtz.Not to be confused with history of the entire world, i guess and The Cartoon History of the Universe, which are both historically accurate rather than Historical Fiction but have strong Deadpan Snarker vibe.

History of the World Part I / int_56515a39	comment	Artistic License – History: Quite a bit, all of it most likely being deliberate. Several people in the 'Roman Empire' sketch talk about Christianity as if it is a distinct religion from Judaism, but the very last scene of that sketch has Comicus catering The Last Supper. Pre-crucifixion Rome would have considered Christianity to be a minor sect of Judaism if they knew about it at all. In the Inquisition segment: Jews were outside the Inquisition's jurisdiction; it only dealt with Christians. The opening narration puts the scene at 1489, then mentions how the black death, which took place about a century and a half earlier, was underway.

History of the World Part I / int_f07ec9fd	comment	Sequel Snark: Even the title implies a sequel, and they do "previews" to Part Two, but it's clear they don't mean to make one. This is actually a reference to Sir Walter Raleigh's History of the World, Volume I; he wrote it in prison in the Tower of London and was executed before he could write any other volumes. Also part of the Running Gag of Mel Brooks's films mentioning a sequel that is never intended to be made. (Compare Spaceballs, where the title of a sequel is even given. And the movie itself appears to be "Chapter 11".)
