This is the thing I love about CGP Grey. His videos are so high quality that you cannot say if the video was from 2013 or 2020...
also CONSISTENCY!!! which is extremely amazing given that technically they can make a more elaborate or complex style
You can because if it were made today he'd have thrown Donetsk and Luhansk in as part of the disputed "Russia thinks they're countries, no one else does" camp.

Fun fact, work in an immigration-related field and in my job interview they asked me this very question. And because I watched this video, I was able to give them an impressively comprehensive answer. Thanks Grey!

Can we just take a minute to appreciate how CGP calls every country 'she', except Vatican City, 'given his demographics'. Well played, CGP, well played.
huh?
Vatican City doesn't have any official Female Citizens.
And he used the stick from the Vatican City video which was his male "model"
Interesting thought. I mean, anytime I've heard someone talk about "defending America" (with varying degrees of credibility), it's always been "we'll defend *her.* " English doesn't generally have feminine/masculine nouns, but I think cars and countries tend to be feminine.
@@ichijofestival2576 because most call their countries, Mother Country / Motherland. though, I've seen Germany WWII propaganda call theirs Fatherland and (i'm no expert) but latin for country is patria, similar or related to father = patri. so nevermind what i said.

The fact that Kazakhstan was #4 in the beginning is nice. A usually overlooked country got to shine here.
Which is impressive considering it's amongst the top 10 largest nations by surface area.
Overlooked? Considering the wild success of Borat, I’d disagree 😂 That country gets waaay more attention than warranted lmao
The Kazakh national anthem is also a BANGER
Vatican city needs to hold the olympics. Just imagine. Professional Latin reading or Preaching.
The Generalissimo In 2036 the Vatican will take the gold in:
The "100 meter Holy Hand Grenade toss" (Barely beating out the US, whose many MANY Olympic grenade tossers were unaccustomed to these grenades' incredible holiness)
The "200 meter Latin chant competition" (Japan will take silver, the UK will take Bronze. Italy will embarrassingly not place)
The "Solid Gold Crucifix lift"
The "200 meter Scripture writing relay" (Saudi Arabia gave them a run for their money, though)
The "most wrinkles competition" (Almost lost to the newest contender Yourmomia)
The "100 meter Altar Boy" (which was not televised in some countries)
And Pole Vaulting.
Weirdly, they only got silver for the "Funniest hat" competition, losing to Team Fortress 2.
Let Us No, England would win Holy Hand Grenade toss as King Arthur passed the knowledge down the ages.
Isak Svensson Lol. Have you seen Brother Maccabays arm though? That man can make it *brimstone.* Once, as he was training in the Apostolic Palace, he threw one so hard he made the Pope crap his pants. Hence the most appropriate use of the words "holy shit" by any human being.

Isak Svensson Rio de Janeiro, right? Going to be awesome.
"Okay, no more politics!" That's literally the only thing that defines countries.
Yes! People must stop thinking of countries as more than they are, which is the equivalent of a file cabinet. Culture, language, and worldview make us who we are; nationality is an insignificant birthmark.
Lone Starr SO TRUE. Nationality is purely a political construct. Your race and ethnicity is what defines you. Even political borders are something we need to transcend. I hope future societies allow for fluid mobility and travel and find a better alternative to passports, visas and border control.
Ascolano Irl Of course there will be problems at first, it might seem impossible, ending slavery in America seemed impossible but hey then the Civil War came about and slavery was abolished.
There should be a less border control universally.
Ascolano Irl I don’t think you got what I said, in fact you are changing the topic. What I am saying is that’s there is a need for a radical redefinition of a “national boundary”, there has to be a better alternative to passports, something more efficient than border control and visas, equal access to all services regardless of citizenship status. Maybe that’s too idealistic, but nonetheless possible
Lone Starr I would like to add that many times, culture and language define political borders. When a single culture inhabits a single country, it's called a nation state. Certain nation states include Japan and Germany. In fact, World War 1 and 2 were partially caused by the lack of Nation states in Europe. Because of this, most borders in Europe are defined specifically with culture and language in mind. This doesn't apply to many countries however, especially in Africa, where most of the borders have been superimposed with little regard to culture by former colonizers, leading to years of struggle and conflict. Nation states exist specifically to stop this kind of devicive conflict between ethnicities and cultures.
Wow, sorry. I didn't mean to go on a tangent like this. I guess I'm having flashbacks from my Human Geography class, lol.
Watching this video 9 years later, knowing what happened recently in Tansnistria, Karabakh and Ossetia is weird.

The bit about Taiwan makes me so happy, I’m sometimes afraid of telling mainland Chinese that I’m taiwanese just in case they get really mad and start calling me weird names like traitor and stuff, but honestly Taiwan in all consideration, should be a country, it has everything to be a country but it’s just mainland China wouldn’t let go of this island
台灣才是真正的中國!
Taiwan is absolutely a country. I wish other countries (like my home Australia) would grow some balls and recognise Taiwan.
Taiwan also isn’t letting go of china mainland as well. Is a problem from both sides
It does make sense that China wants to protect its territorial integrity. Other countries do it as well with their separatist territories.
Make them mad, they're the real traitors
Man, I'm sad to know CGP Grey doesn't support my plans to make a small island nation off the coast of Canada :(

Me searching in google: Is Taiwan a country?
*China wants to know your location*

Nuclear strike detected
I am in Taiwan as of me reading this comment what a coincidence 😂😂
Shit changed fast in the six years since this video released.
There is no such country called Taiwan, its official name is "Republic of China", it is a limited recognize state (And when someone recognize it as a country, it is recognized as the sole legal government of the whole of China)
Another consideration is whether the UK is one country or four. It is one unitary sovereign state and often counted as one in these lists. But the comprising nations are definitely thought of as countries (as opposed to states or prefectures) with their own national identities, culture, languages and sports teams.
It took me the entire video to realize that this is 9 years old. This aged remarkably well

So is Skyrim considered a country or still part of the Empire?
As a wise man said, "Menjar be I caga fort, a la tingues por de la mort."
Bonus pts to whoever translates.

"Eat shit and be strong, to be afraid of death."
We don't know which is cannon, if Skyrim became a country, or stayed as an Imperial Provence, because both are possible in the game! This would be cool if it leaded to a split timeline theory in the Elder Scrolls universe! It's like Schrodinger's Country!
Icarus Solarus I think it's going to be the timeline where you don't pick a side.
Icarus Solarus Heh.
CGP Grey, out of all the TH-cam channels and vids I have seen, you are THE ONLY ONE who gives 15-20 seconds at the end of your content before the video ends. Everyone else ends immediately or almost immediately after the content stops. This makes it difficult to pause the video to do various tasks that video viewers like to do at the ends of videos.
Therefore, THANK YOU!!
It’s really hilarious watching this seven years later and seeing how nothing has changed since this video came out
I live in Cyprus and Northern Cyprus literally has one supporter.... Turkey
@Артём And all of the UN other than Turkey
Well i do my best
Hmm, I wonder why the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, that was made after the Turkish invasion of Cyprus, is recognized by Turkey and no one else. Can't seem to put my finger on it
@@headcanon6408 Because the USA have threatened other countries not to recognize.
Also 20+ countries said they are waiting for a signal from Turkey to recognize North Cyprus. But Turkey gives reunification talks the priority instead.
For now, at least. As Turkey seems to be fed up with the endless fruitless reunification talks (after decades) and mostlikely will start soon with active recognition politics.
Giving Vatican city's demographics, divine intervention would be required to take home a gold.. HAHAHA
Roast...
António Santos you realize the joke is about the fact the citizens of Vatican City are those employed by the pope and statistically are 50+
António Santos it’s a fucking joke not an insult. An insult is that the Catholic Church is stupid and deserves to be burned. A joke is “the only way the Vatican City could earn a gold in the Olympics is if god intervened”
António Santos and you’re clearly an insult on the human race
António Santos you really mean that 🥺 what gave it away 🙄
Considering recent events, it might be interesting to see the sequel to this video sometime in the nearish future.
I'm impressed. 9 years later and two of his video suggestions (0:30) are actually correct.

Funnily there’s almost two hundred likes on this
At least 3.
This reminds me of something I've heard before - "a language is a dialect with an army and a navy." Languages are surprisingly hard to define! One of the key differentiators is mutual intelligibility (whether or not you can understand each other) - but speakers of different dialects of chinese can't understand each other, yet speakers of spanish and portuguese languages sometimes can!
This doesn’t even get into asymmetric intelligibility, where speakers of one dialect/language can understand the other much better than the inverse (e.g. the Portuguese people I know can often understand quite a bit of Spanish, but Spanish people generally can’t make anything of European Portuguese).
As a Southeast Asian, I always think of those Chinese so-called "dialects" aren't actually dialects, they are separate languages written in the same writing system.
I think it's the same as English and German that both are written in Latin alphabet, but being two separate languages.
@@rusticcloud3325 oh definitely. Ask a linguist and they'll probably say that they're mostly different languages. But politically they're considered a single language, because China is very much invested in having a strong national identity.
On the opposite end of the spectrum you have BSC, because for linguists and language learners there is almost no point in trying to actually distinguish between Bosnian, Serbian, and Croatian. But politically and culturally they're considered 3 languages
I love coming back to these videos, and not noticing how old they are at all
the only thing I can learn form CGP Grey is "hexagons are the Bestagones"

CGP: talking about countries "Nutter who plants a flag on an island or oil rig"
Sealand: [crying in corner]
He kinda just made that to cheat taxes and pirate radio
while I don't have a law degree, the "royal" family of Sealand did at least "salvage" an abandoned fortress (it is not an oil rig) and therefore own it legally. whether or not they made it into a country is another issue.
I love how throughout the video you actively alternate in calling the locations either "countries" or "places".

+Renn Li
Taiwan's recognition as a country is more and more out of border over the past few years.
Some suggested that Taiwan is a country as R.O.C. in Taiwan.
Some claims that Taiwan is a part of unclaimed territory of US(Which a bit weird theory imo)
Some thinks that Taiwan should (Or already) become a independent country. (Which the next party run for office DPP bias to) Which will piss off China the most.
Like some people and legislators in Taiwan likes to stick stickers of Taiwan on their ROC passport. Which I think it's a bit of stupid act.
Holly Creavin
It's still controversial topic here. And I guess you arrived in the south of Taiwan. Where most of the people support DPP there.
In my opinion, Taiwan really doesn't have the problem to be independent or not. I just don't understand why there are some people denies the existence of ROC, where the government that rules Taiwan is ROC...
We are indeed ROC, not PRC, fact. (Say me biased, but this is the truth.)
Holly Creavin
What landmarks did you went when you go to Taiwan?
Holly Creavin
Oh, so you went to the Northern Taiwan? Not surprise.
And that old palace IS an art museum. It's called the National Palace Museum, it's really famous. It's home for some the artifacts that were from the original National Palace in Beijing.
The indigenous culture museum...don't know what is it...

Odd thing I just noticed - when CGP Gray says "some countries come" he shows South Sudan, yet on the world map, it shows a world before South Sudan's independence.
Is it just me loving math too much or the numbers at 4:59 reminds me of factorial in mathematics?

@@vam_ire1589 as someone who lives through the conflict every day, I think that was the best possible reaction.

The two are in a state of war so perhaps the best answer is 'unresolved'.

There is a fun free game online call NationStates. You create a nation and decide the rules on it. Take about 5-30 minutes per day depending on how active you wanna be and how long and hard you want to think on the issues. I like to think creating a nation in the real world is just as easy as it is in the game. The issue is having others see you as a new nation. Why Texas as far as the US care could literally never split off even if it somehow did.
I love how he just breezes through all this complicated, lengthy material. He summed up the revolutionary and civil war in like, 3 sentences. And the decades of controversy with China and Taiwan was summed up in about the same amount of time. And it all makes sense! It doesn't bother me at all, because the slightly sarcastic narration is so great at poking fun at history and easily explaining the countries' places in the world.

I'm Taiwanese too (my family has been there for generations--over a century, and I have some aboriginal blood). What I find odd, is that Taiwan has its own currency, laws, political system, passports, health care system...none of which have changed in the last few decades, and none of which looks anything like the PRC's. Still, Taiwan was more widely recognized as a country in the 80s and 90s than it has been in the last decade, as China's gained economic and political power--essentially bullying other countries to at least stay silent on Taiwan's status. Kind of funny that the status of one country/territory/place (Taiwan) can be called into question based on the fluctuating power of another country (China)...(but as this video illustrates, that happens all the time, given that whether the UN recognizes a country is based on the opinions of a few select countries...)
In any case, glad that Taiwan was brought up in this video!

Hi, I am a Taiwanese. Thank you introduce the situation between China and us(Taiwan, R.O.C, Chinese Taipei, China Taipei...whatever you say)
GAO Xiang Both you and Taiwan are provinces of the only rightful China; the Empire of China. Both of your existences brings shame to your ancestors who fought to protect the emperor. You should both be ashamed of yourselves.
GAO Xiang Republics are flawed, and nothing but Western propaganda that you have fallen for. There is no logic or morals to majority rule. Your ancestors defended the Empire, it was only after being attacked by the West that you decided to become traitors.
It's just Taipei......(China doesn't own us)
I still think of Taiwan as the Republic of China. The Republic was formed in the 20s, disrupted by the Japanese, and overthrown on the mainland by the Communists. One people, two lands, two governments.

Geography lessons in school might have been more interesting if we got more thought provoking lessons like this rather than just being tasked with remembering the names of a bunch of countries, labeling some of their major cities and natural features, and then coloring them in on blank maps.
I saw a travel documentary testing out the tourist experience in Transnistria, Not impressive, but very country like at the time of filming. Since then, they have become a strategic point of interest in a larger war, where they might or might not become the western flank of a currently ongoing war involving two founding members of the UN.
