Now about that journalist in Belaruss Mr, Putin........
Assuming it survive, considering recent events.
@@TheRezro Sadly it has expanded as Belarus aproved for deploying russian nukes
@@sebastianmitura This actually happen prior to war. And actually Russia allowed itself that after debatable intervention, as 80% of Belarusians hate Lukashenka (some even fight for Ukraine with Belarus army straight refusing to enter conflict, despite specific orders).
I would really like a separate episode on the SCO. It seems so contradictory to have China, Russia, Pakistan and India in one alliance.
Interesting. I'd like to see a video about this too!
Considering india don't like China nor pakistan. Also rusia being the mutual friend for both sides in the room 😂😂
I agree, surprising how China and India, as well as Pakistan and India, had wars between them.
i was surprised too. when i saw india and china together in one sentence i knew something was not right.
Its much more of an economic cooperation than a military one.
As a Canadian, I was surprised to find that you missed out on NORAD, the North American Aerospace Defense Command treaty between Canada and the US. This agreement dates back to the late 1950s and is still in force.
NORAD , with zero contribution from Canada. Canada being just a freeloader 😂😂. Such alliances are not called alliance
The Santa-Tracker alliance 😂
It basically is useless
Couldn't even detect a balloon lol
@@agnivnandi5538 because the computers were made to ignore balloons. They changed that now
I think it's also the only treaty or alliance that explicitly shares air defense with the official head of NORAD even switching between the two countries.
"How many alliances do you want?"
USA : yes.
So many counties rely on the US for protection. At the end of the day its not a bad thing because big alliances prevent wars from happening.
And it used to have more :). Pactomania really lives up to its name

Kinda the same with Portugal... we always end up getting fucked up the arse idk why were still in that alliance
@@Helvanx Well you two haven't been on the opposite side of any conflict since atleast the middle ages while good ol' France and Britain waged a war on each other pretty much every other week just a little bit more than 100 years ago and also pretty much only made an alliance since they both hated Germany, so I'd say you two are a lot better friends.
*England and France for a whole millenium:* Constantly fighting
*Germany:* Unites and centralises power
*England and France:* Quickly becomes friends
@@Helvanx Britain helped push Spanish forces out of Portugal during occupation in the war of Spanish Succession as well as the French during Napoleonic wars and peninsula war, Portugal asked for help Britain provided it, they also supported us and traded with Portuguese colonies instead of attacking them. Portugal allowed Britain to use it's military bases in the Azores during WW2 and then again darting the 1982 Falkland's war, the 750 year alliance is the oldest in the world, for what its worth i'm proud to be part of it.
Oh, and Britain asked Portugal to give it some of Portugal's colonies or face trouble some time in the 1880s to 1890s :P

The latest emerging alliance is the QUAD Alliance of US, Japan, India and Australia.
I hope it grows, and we can win another cold war.
French and Brits too are showing interest. Hope it becomes kinda Asian NATO soon.
It's main purpose is too decrease the influence of China, so many be South east Asian and Australian(continent) countries like Vietnam, Philliplines,Timor-Lest, PNG etc may join
Singapore is also a participant in naval exercises with quad
@@ethansmedley3386 QUAD is a paper tiger. Look at them pledge to manufacture billions of vaccines to dominate the world, then India has a crisis and the other three nations do fuck all to help it. Australia, Japan and America are allies anyway so it's not like they depend on the QUAD for their security.
Switzerland have the best allience

There are two types of people:
Modest ones and idiots.
im surprised the quad wasnt mentioned here, nor the anzac or anzus treaties, but especially the quad which is one of the biggest talking points in indo-pacific relations at the moment
I think quad, etc. are only economic treaties, not military alliances.
The video is just western centric, Quad wasn't mentioned, there are alliance of India with Russia, mutual defense agreement between India and Bhutan, nothing mentioned about South Asian or Southeast Asian alliances, basically no mention of China's newly formed alliances, such as with Pakistan, they literally thought it was too long so they didn't read
For now at least quad is still mostly an idea and is only really a few economic deals and vaccine promises, not quite an alliance just yet.
QUAD isn't official yet, and members still disagree on how to "handle" China.
@@shtrakt QUAD is a potential upcoming strategic alliance.
It's not completely official yet but due to It's strategic nature and inclusion of major nations with the common ground of having terrible relations with China,
it is becoming the largest point of discussion in Indo-Pacific alliances.
If strengthened and turned into an official alliance with proper agreements signed,then it will very likely be a military and economic alliance,not just an economic one.
It quite literally claims It's purpose is to protect and encourage democracy and freedom in Asia.
My girlfriend's family is from Paraguay so she knows a lot about the country. The other day she told me that Paraguay and Taiwan have close relations, in fact Paraguay is one of the few countries that recognize Taiwan.

You forgot to mention the Treaty of Algeron, which was a peace treaty signed between the United Federation of Planets and the Romulan Star Empire in 2311, which was not a mutual defence agreement but basically a non aggression treaty and banned the Federation to do research into or use of any cloaking device.
Did Sisko ever face any consequences for breaking the bit about cloaking devices?
@@givememydatabackgoogle2811 by the time sisco got the defiant, the algeron treaty was pretty much obsolete, at latest, when star fleet introduced mass production of defiant class ships.

'Nations have no permanent friends or allies, they only have permanent interests.'
- Lord Palmerston
Except Portugal and the UK, apparently. 600+ years means they've gone through several rounds of "permanent" interests with one another and are still standing strong.
Even when Portugal was Fascist during WW2 under Salazar they continued to remain friendly to the British. Even allowing the British to use their ports and air bases during the war when the Alliance was invoked. They even said if Britain asked they would get involved officially in the war against the Axis. The British never called them in because they knew that would mean Spain would have joined the Axis. So the Portuguese-British Alliance is definitely a permanent friendship that not even ideology can separate.
@ Calculator every country does that.
Hopefully in modern times peace is most common shared interest.
You should do next the Economic Alliance like the EU, AU, Arab League, ASEAN etc.
The AU will only work in an AU

Although, maybe some it will do some good while it lasts

@@aresgood1 I completely agree, that's why Tldr needs to make a video about it.

The Anglo-Portuguese alliance is wholesome af
we love the Portuguese
Yes, and it started when the English were on their way to the holy land and helped us Conquer Lisbon from the Moors, around 200 years before an official alliance was formed.
Is it? I'm assuming it started so they could avoid a turf war when both countries were heavy into colonizing the entire planet back in the day.
@@mammajamma4397 No it started in the 1100s and was officiailised in the 1370s, way before European colonisation began in the 1500s. It was initally an alliance between English and Portuguese crusaders when the English stopped and helped during the Siege of Lisbon
@@eversincexx But we don't love you
How does the SCO work as an alliance in India, Pakistan and China have not just active border disputes but also regularly threaten each other?

Took us three more and more brutal wars to understand, but yeah.
It's like befriending the silent kid to not get shot when the day comes
That is what the Soviet Union thought and were wrong
@Jahwarrior Smoot I have never seen any proof of that. I am sure that was debunked years ago.
@Jahwarrior Smoot If you could point me to some proof I would be grateful. One of the main reasons it was debunked was that there is absolutely no way the Soviet army was capable of invading Germany at that time. Especially after what had happened during the Winter War with Finland. Plus, if they were planning an offensive how come the whole of the border region of the USSR was occupied by scattered untrained troops none of which were at full strength, they were not even mobilised for combat. This 'excuse' that the USSR was going to invade first was given by captured German Generals in interviews after WWII. When the Russian WWII archives were opened to scrutiny (temporarily) no evidence was found, though many were looking for it, including Russian scholars.
1 year later on April 4th Finland has joined NATO

Just imagine what it's like for England, automatically labeled as bad things just for being proud of a flag lol
As an American, the idea of thinking negatively about someone just because they’re are proud of their country is really confusing. It’s normal for people in my country to be patriotic. Nearly everyone on my street has an American flag hanging off their front porch.

I would love to see a more in-depth map about Canada’s alliances. Canada has a pretty strong alliance with Mali and it’s one most don’t hear of or expect. I’d love to learn more about other alliances my country has
We’ve got a bit of an unofficial one with Israel too, though it is no where near as strong or official as the one with Mali or the ones mentioned in this video.
They didn’t mention the NORAD alliance.
I would be curious to learn more about India's military alliances as they have historically faced a number of regional challenges and may aspire to the role of a regional power broker in the coming decades.
For India there is quad but it is not formally working... And it is not an proper military alliance and no major economic policy have been signed in the quad. India has some agreement with Bhutan to protect it from Chinese. India has joint venture programmes going on with Russians. India is buying the best from USA and Israel. France is selling weapons to India and some joint venture program is possible with France...
India is never going to have a formal military alliance ever. Its against the very character of this country to go to war with others because of the interests of some foreign ally (unless the foreign ally is Bhutan, they are special). We prefer an independent foreign policy and are one of only three/four countries in the world who have the power to actually pursue this route and become a global pole in a multi-polar world order.

two questions,
Assumption: Evry country that gets a call to arms will answer it, and prioritise aiding a defending allay
1: What country could you attack without starting WW3
2: What country should you attach to start ww3 by calling the fewest grouts of allay.
Would depend on the country doing the attacking as well as the casus belli. As there would be more attention paid if any developed country started warmongering.
Assuming the video is complete:
1 Madagaskar
2 Probably none, as for a world war you need different continents. Each one has its own pact and some of those members are in other pacts. Best bet would be Russia/China as they are in pacts with each others friends. (UN EU and USA pacts would not intervene according to this map) (Though due to the nukes everyone would join in to prevent the nukes from being fired)
Um, personally I love Switzerland's non-agressive nature. But if I am forced to start a war without starting WW3, then I'll nuke the Swiss. At the end of the day they are present only in the UN, and nowhere else.
Though it is a different story altogether that they've enough bunkers to keep all of their population safe from nukes and that they have a navy too despite being a landlocked country. So I can't guarantee a win, but I guess it shouldn't start WW3, or would it?
@@soukaryasamanta8073 As you said the UN would step in, then you are at war with the UN, so their allies will step in and so on. And suddenly you have a very large world war.
@@soukaryasamanta8073 I'm Swiss. As who would you nuke us? NATO-Member-> all of EU (NATO-Members) looses their shit because, you just nuked their well liked neighbor. We aren't a member, but still have reasonably close ties with NATO. Non-NATO-> NATO looses their shit for nuking the middle of Europe (even if when ignoring how you got said nuke to Switzerland to beginn with(through NATO-territory?). We have indeed bunkers that protect against fallout, not a direct nuke though and those bunkers aren't maintained¨ optimally, let alone stocked properly , considering the currently only serve as protection in case of natural disaster or something like a chemical or nuclear accident. And our navy is a couple of freighters(which are currently being faced-out) and some Patrol boats XD. We do have a decent military, but it is no way standing up to any such threat, let alone without months of mobilization XD.
Im from Namibia, which i think has quite an interesting system of friendships.
South Africa: we got independence from them just a generation ago, theyre our besties and we cooperate on vaious factors such as citizenship rights, language, tertiary education, etc, as well as in alliances such as
SADC: the international community we most see ourselves as part of, bunch of Southern African countries
SACU: the countries most culturally and historically aligned with Namibia, hence more close cooperation in what is the worlds oldest running customs union
Germany: we share a close historical and cultural tie with Germany. Interesting love-hate relationship, but its mostly positive with intense development aid and cultural/education exchange between the two
Finland: similar to germany, the Finns had a well founded presence in Namibia during the colonial period, with a largely positive impact as finnish missionaries spread education onto the local people
China: this is a very controversial one. Statistics apparently say the chinese community in Namibia may now be larger than the German one. Most Namibians are largely anti-China, and this controversy is reflected in politics, as more anti-China parties see massive gains in elections
an interesting one ive discovered:
St Helena: Namibia is basically one of the "supply points" for St Helena next to South Africa, with large investments into the air travel infrastructure from St Helena to Namibia and the rest of the world!

I would like to hear a lot more detail about the Quad (US, India, Australia, Japan).
@kiran m You are daft if you think SCO is a military alliance.
Quad is an informal grouping of India, the Japan-US alliance and the Australia-US alliance in order to coordinate against China. That is how it will stay. Give up if you think India will ever form an alliance with any of these countries.
Two significant defence agreements you missed are NORAD (North American Aerospace Defence Command) and the Permanent Joint Board on Defence, both covering joint defence planning and cooperation, with NORAD as well being the active defence body responsible for aerospace defence of Canada and the US.
The Collective Security Treaty features a Hungarian 🇭🇺 flag in place of Tajikistans 🇹🇯. The diffrence is the golden thingy in the middle.
Hungary being a former Warsaw Pact country (altough not part of CCCP), and nowdays being a close Russia-ally, one could really think, they are part of the Collective Security Treaty, instead of NATO, this mistake can really be misleading.
Can we get more information on the Quad, please?
It could be its own video because right now, the Quad isn't a military alliance, more like an economic one. It's fairly new though so it could very well evolve into a military alliance, especially if China keeps acting like a dick.

UK-Portugal alliance was what helped keep the joint Portuguese and Spanish Armada away from Englands shores, once that alliance fell and Portugal became under control of the Spanish Empire, the British immediately had to deal with it, even tho the seas were on the british side and the armada eventually sunk, if it had succeeded to reach London, the city would have been reduced to rubble.
This is lifted from the wikipedia page “list of military alliances”, which is riddled with errors.
True never seen such a sh**ty video before.
‘And Hasbulla’ haha, the almighty powerhouse he is
And this is precisely why the world is not as on fire as people think.
Anyone touches anything, and the entire map turns red.
Someone from Africa flicks another person from Africa. Two seconds later: "What do you mean I'm at war with lichtenstein?"
The irony of America "defending" the America's is hilarious.
imagine playing hearts of iron 4 with this
I'm an American so...everything mentioned here?
Americans however are particularly fond of the French because of the Revolutionary war, and our Grand pappie countries of the UK. We may have told you to get bent and threw your tea in the harbor, but now we really like the UK.
We did think the tea in the ocean was weird. The Atlantic isn't hot enough to make a cup of tea 😑
I’d say the US’s closest allies are the U.K. and Canada.
@@joshbentley2307 canada is the 51st state
Actually American French relations have hit an all time low. With both Nations and their people having very lukewarm opinions about the other.
@@joshbentley2307 Australia is the closest ally of America. They are among the first to always help us in our wars, Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Iraq. Australia was always the first nation to send troops and officially support us in those wars.
0:32 The audio went weird for a bit.
9:33 The thing about the CSTO. From my understanding, it is broadly like NATO, but lacks the collective security clause.
It has a mutual defense clause
You forget this..
1.BRICS-Brasil,Russia,India,China,South Africa(Not military alliance)
2.ISI-Internationnal Solar Alliance-100+ countries(renewable energy)
3.QUAD-India, Australia, Japan,USA(..?)
The UK and Portugal were on opposing sided in the Nigerian civil war...
3:25 "since it´s signing the two have never waged war against each other"
*in 1890 the UK basically brokes the alliance by making an ultimate against Portugal because of the "pink map" that was suppose to connect Angola and Mozambique, the Portuguese King quit the country plan to make UK happy and this led to the beggining of the downfall of worldwide respect for Portugal, the creation of a new national anthem that originally meant "against the brits fight", the regicide years later (as well as his son) and the fall of monarchy in Portugal*
such a good alliance am i right
@@Tusiriakest source please
Aye, but they wanted to build a choo choo train from one end of Africa to the other
Oldest alliance in the world 🇬🇧❤️🇵🇹
Canada: not only do we have natural alliances with the US (our #1 trade partner) and UK and Commonwealth nations (due to historical reasons), we are very close friends with the Netherlands. We sheltered the Dutch royal family during WW2, and liberated the Netherlands almost single handedly (the UK was distracted by Belgium)
Canada also kept Britains Wealth in Gold Bars safe when it was shipped over from the Bank of England Vaults in WW2, Just ahead of Hitlers failed invasion 👍
Everybody likes to bring up the Anglo-Portuguese Alliance. But you do realize, Portugal was absorbed by Spain from 1580-1640, during which time the English fought the Spanish (and hence Portuguese) in the Anglo-Spanish War. Every heard of the Spanish Armada 1588? Yes, Portuguese ships and sailors were part of the Spanish force.
@@Tusiriakest Oooh technicalities, and that's why they still say it's a 1000 year alliance. Just forget the times their soldiers killed each other.
The United States and Iceland signed a bilateral defense agreement in 1951, which stipulated that the U.S. would make arrangements for Iceland's defense on behalf of NATO and provided for basing rights for U.S. forces in Iceland; the agreement remains in force, although U.S. military forces are no longer permanently stationed in Iceland.
more graphics on this topic would be interesting. Maybe assigning a score to each country based on how many and how powerful its alliances are. There's a ton of maps you could do
There are more than 195 countries. To not anger anyone, you should refer to them as members of the UN, or just straight out say that there are 'around 200' countries in the world.
someone is always gonna be angry... kings wants to hold on to power, people want to breakaway...
Its only 193 UN countries. Thats the only objective metric
If you aren’t recognized by basically everyone, you are likely to be a rebel, a young separatist or something that is so controversial that mentioning it is often far worse than not mentioning it.
This is an interesting counterpoint to the relationships between the actual people who make decisions on this scale. If you did global economic alliances you could probably pin a handful of corporations up with more power than most so-called nation states.
As an Indonesian, I'm happy to see my country being neutral
👍🏻 🍜=👍🏻
So which alliance kicked in when Australia fought the Emus? 🤔
Wait so the USA is allies with Argentina who are allied with some Central African nations which are allied with India which is allied with China who is allied with Russia, so the USA is allied with Russia and China
India is only allied with china because of economic aspect and historical aspects
That's like saying your cousin's girlfriend's aunt's dog's vet's step-son's grandpa is your brother.
@@HarshDude126 XD
India is allied with China? Grow a brain please. Last year, Chinese military faced its first military casualties in decades: They ran afoul an Indian Infantry Battalion.
No india is allied because of russia
"QUAD" is missed .... One of the most important military alliance by
Countries, which consists of
USA
INDIA
JAPAN
AUSTRALIA
There aren’t that many alliances in SE Asia, how come?
Maybe because theyre more peaceful?
most of their alliances are covered with ASEAN such as a Free trade area and no nuclear zone
@@pickleman2196 nah fam its because we in SEA are at each other's throat constantly. We can be friends today and enemies tommorow
In term of economic, cultural, games.. yes, ASEAN as one but other than that especially politics, authority. We dont have that for now which why China wanna exploits
@@pickleman2196 It's more like we're not close enough relation-wise to even have alliances.
Unless China really, really starts ramping up its aggression, I really doubt ASEAN will be anything more than "country leader meetings every X amount of time and maybe some economic treaties".
When it comes to the people, not really, but inter-nation conflicts/disagreements are definitely a thing that's stopping that kind of commitment.
Someone should make a challenge in Civ where they recreate every real world alliance in the game
7:45 Should use the naval name for the Five Eyes alliance AUSCANNZUKUS, just because.
