comment
Emperor Tigerstar is a web animator that depicts history in the form of map animations as well as occassional editorials on specific historical subjects. Typically for a subject such as a war, Emperor Tigerstar will show the changing front lines of the war to show which country/coalition has control of what area. He most famously mapped every single day of World War II and made it a seven minute animation that went viral showing the war in Europe, and another with both Europe and the Pacific. Along with his map videos, he also does historical videos about some historical figures and events like Huey Long and the Whig Party.You can check out his YouTube channel here.

Always Someone Better: His view about Napoleon Bonaparte's nephew, Napoleon III. Despite successfully reviving the French Empire, he was unable to achieve the same success as his uncle in wars which ended his reign when France lost to the Prussians in the Franco-Prussian War.

The Cameo
 Emperor Tigerstar (Web Animation) / int_1b65dfad
comment
The Cameo: He got a brief appearance from Cypher the Cynical Historian in his first episode of Bad History about pseudohistorian Gavin Menzies and his book 1421. The mere mention of Menzies resulted in awkward silence from Cypher, and him burying his face in the book he was reading.

comment
Broke the Rating Scale: He has an entire series on terrible maps. In more recent episodes, the last map is the worst (in his opinion), and gets rated "Nope/10".

No Swastikas: When Tigerstar did "The History of Modern Germany", he followed the Alternate History Hub convention of replacing the Swastika in the Flag of Nazi Germany with the YouTube logo. It even adds the disclaimer: (Altered flag for YouTube guidelines).

War Has Never Been So Much Fun
 Emperor Tigerstar (Web Animation) / int_40d8b355
comment
War Has Never Been So Much Fun: He has a video where he points out Japanese POW camps during World War I (when they were part of the Allies), and describes them as actually being fairly pleasant places for German prisoners captured from a battle in Chingdao, China. They were permitted many amenities in the prison camps (so long as they didn't do anything bad or try to escape, though at worst they still weren't treated cruelly), and even allowed to make money. It also explains why Germans were more amicable to allowing the Empire of Japan to join the Axis during World War II. Some of the artwork produced by German POWs in Japan, ironically, was destroyed by American firebombing in WWII.

 Emperor Tigerstar (Web Animation) / int_56515a39
comment
Artistic License – History: In History Class Horror Stories, he tells stories of his youth over some of his teachers who got historic facts wrong much to his horror like how one teacher mistaken 1960's Civil Rights Activist Malcolm X as American Civil War anti-slavery activist Frederick Douglass. He has a number of series dedicated to calling this out, from Gavin Menzies' bizarre claim that Chinese admiral Zheng He discovered the entire world, to the ancient Historia Regnum Britanniae.

Badass Army: Sometimes his videos can make armies seem like badass armies based on how quickly they triumph over their enemies.

Spreading Disaster Map Graphic
 Emperor Tigerstar (Web Animation) / int_8acf3a97
comment
Spreading Disaster Map Graphic: Seeing this trope as applied to various wars and conflicts is more or less the appeal of his channel. Some ones of note: World War II: His most popular video by a long shot depicts the events of World War II in Europe every single day, or at least military ones. World War II on All Fronts: Every Day takes it up a notch by depicting all fronts and uses Stock Footage to add some extra atmosphere. American Civil War: The second most popular one, it too goes day-by-day. There's some nice attention to detail with flags: he swaps out the USA and CSA flags when appropriate, instead of using the same ones throughout. He also uses the lesser-known "Stars and Bars", "Stainless Banner", and "Blood-stained Banner" series for the CSA rather than the more recognizable Battle Flag of the Army of Northern Virginia; as iconic as it is, it would not be accurate to use it for the entire CSA. The French Revolution: Gets rolled in with The Napoleonic Wars. World War I: The first world war has been depicted every day in one of his videos. Arab–Israeli Conflict: Has videos dedicated to the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, the 1967 Six-Day War, and the 1973 Yom Kippur War, with the second going hour-by-hour.

Punctuated! For! Emphasis!: Tigerstar has to do this during Part 4 of his Timeline-191 crossover with Alternate History Hub, when noting that the Union nuked Newport News, Virginia, simply because of outdated intel claiming Confederate dictator and Hitler expy Jake Featherston was there.

Based on a Great Big Lie
 Emperor Tigerstar (Web Animation) / int_b2e94341
comment
Based on a Great Big Lie: He calls out Gavin Menzies' book 1421: The Year that China discovered the World as a big lie since his book offered no confirmed evidence that a Chinese fleet was able to sail around the world in 1421. Furthermore, it would be impossible for the fleet to travel around the world within a year with the current technology, tools and information it had.

Tom the Dark Lord: Tigerstar has this opinion of the later Big Bad of Timeline-191, Jake Featherston. This was after trying to flavor his first mention of Featherston in the series with Dramatic Thunder.

Crossover: Has two crossovers with Cody of Alternate History Hub where they explain the changes and events of Harry Turtledove's Southern Victory, Worldwar, and The War That Came Early novel series. These videos typically feature an AHH version of his avatar.
