With Arabic, my guess is that variants of Arabic, well, vary so much 😅 Egyptian Arabic is vastly different from Moroccan Arabic (and Iraqi Arabic from Saudi Arabic, etc etc), so they just use modern standard Arabic which they use for reporting, literature, etc. And with the hurricanes/typhoons, the Coriolis effect would make it hard for the storm to switch directions. Imagine stirring a pot of soup 200 miles wide one way and suddenly changing directions.
Well... the lack of Coriolis Force is what really keeps this from happening. Tropical Cyclones close to the equator are rare because the CF is so weak there. And at the equator, the Coriolis Force is zero.
i am native arabic speaker (well not after thıs vıdeo) but you are wrong, arabıc always had a lot ı mean really a lot of dialects, even 1400 years ago average (non Fluent) arabs from mecca had some isues understandıng some words or phrases from some tribs around them and so on, so this currunt sıtuatıon is just normal to the language with 12 million words 😅
There's also so many Arab speaking nations that it would be hard to simply pin one down. Saudi Arabia would be the closest to a lingual representative due to familiarity and influence, but even then they don't account for Levantine or North African dialects (and especially not Moroccan Arabic). It's not like other languages where one or two nations can be used to represent them due to just how vast the Arabic-speaking world is. So that's why Modern Standard Arabic has to be used if you're looking at the Arabic language as a whole, and since nobody actually speaks in just Standard Arabic, this results in there being no native speakers.
it's not really the case, the reason for it of why it's 0 native speakers is because being an Arab is more of a political term rather than referring to a race socially, to be an Arab is to have your mother tongue being Arabic, simple as that, that's why no one really is native due to the differences in looks, but the language defines you.

Queen Elizabeth in fact made two official visits to Denmark. Once in 1957 and once in 1979. Sorry, I had to look it up. She never visited Greece though.

Thank you so much 🤗❤ Love from Italy
as someone who's lived in Belgium and the netherlands. public transport is not better. in the netherlands its always easy to get to your train and the trains (intercities) are usually clean and modern. in Belgium is rather old.
Belgium was one of the best public transport countries, one of the first to have such a train network, but massive budget cuts stopped their superior public transport. It's still nice that you can catch a train or bus in many places, just not always at the hours you need. This map also counts 1 bus per day. For people who have that one bus in Belgium, that is absolutely not a luxury, but in a country with hardly any public transport, that would be a luxury situation. It's all about the standard of living to label something as good or bad. Same with distance. Belgians, who live in a small country, have a different meaning of "far" than Americans who live in a gigantic country. For an American, Bruges and Arlon, both on the other side of the country, are close to each other (300 km, 3h30 by train), but for Belgians, Bruges to Brussels is already far (100 km, 1h30 by train). By the way: if you want to get to Arlon from Knokke, a city just 15 km from Bruges, it is 5h30 by train/bus. So you can go by public transport, but it goes much faster if you go by car from Knokke to Bruges and get on public transport there. (Travel times are calculated on a normal Monday at 12:00 PM, it's slightly different if you want to go somewhere after 7:00 PM).
6:10 The Atlantic side of South America is warmer than the Pacific side due to the Humboldt Current, that drives cold water from the bottom of the Pacific Ocean to the coasts of Ecuador, Perú, and Chile, inhibiting the formation of cyclones. 6:33 There aren't cyclones on the equator because there is no Coriolis force in that place, so it can't generate the conditions for one of those.
what’s crazy about the netherlands is that you could probably visit the whole country using bike paths, but they aren’t counting them as public transport
@@TheTespin i know, i don’t think cycling is public transport, but i was just saying that they could cycle everywhere which is why their public transport is a bit weaker then others
6:30 It has happened already but it just wasn’t included in the map I’m not sure why. I believe this only occurred once (in recorded meteorology history)
The UK experienced record wind speeds in Feb 2022 of 122 mph, which would be classified as a Category 3 Hurricane in the US, had it actually been a hurricane. It's thought to have stemmed from the major volcanic eruption in Tonga 4 weeks prior.
4:40 the reason Nigerian Pidgin has so many non native speakers is that it’s bassicly British English mixed with African slang so bassicly nobody is taught you just learn the words after learning English or a native language
6:15 One of the Hurricanes were Katia in 2011. It caused damage up to Saint Petersburg. For a storm that made landfall all the ways in Scotland, pretty huge area of impacts. Ofcourse it wasn't your billion dollar hurricane damage
It's actually not possible the hurricane to cross the equator, because hurricanes are caused by the Coriolis Effect, so by the rotational movement of the Earth, thus it would have to magically change the direction it's spinning.
Really glad the US East Coast got lots of precipitation this winter. They were getting to critically low levels over the past few years due to low levels of precipitation in the winter.
The hurricanes, typhoons and cyclones probably can´t pass the equator since they spin counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere
Well...part of the reason why there isn't is because of the Coriolis Force. Or rather, the lack of it. The Coriolis force at the equator is zero. And while Tropical Cyclones have gotten pretty close to the equator... none have crossed.
2:52 history of Prus is about 1525 before that was Teutonic Order. This region has specific ethnic structure, before the first world war and after too. Summary always has a specific ethnic structure. In 1701 was finally transformed into an independent and important state. This is the most diplomatic defeat of Poland. But to many wars and we had a bad economy so we lost it. And when royal families put Augustus II the Strong German from Saksony what can happen
my friend is from Olsztyn and i know what is Warmia and what is Mazury and where the borders is ;) For most people of Poland, it is one land WArmia and MAzury. But history is another province.
The majority of Storm making Landfall in Europe are actually remnants of Tropical Storms. They became extratropical while crossing the Atlantic and mainly are very weak causing some gusty wind and rain. But there are a few Cases of Ex-Tropical Storms hitting Europe with Hurricane Force. For example Ophelia in 2017. Real tropical Storm did make Landfall in Spain and Portugal in the past. The worst Storms in Europe have been Storms without tropical Background.
Also, the non-tropical Extra-Tropical Storms [also known as mid latitude cyclones] usually form in the US and impact the Midwest as well. Also, same kind of storm as Nor'easters on the East Coast. It's all related. The thing is, these systems literally happen all the time, especially between Fall-Winter-Spring. Fun fact: as of right now, one's going to form over the weekend and impact my area
@@gus-vanover We, Germany but also most of Europe, had quite a calm Winter Storm Season. A few did hit but non were violent. The last bad one was possably Eunice/Zeynep. But their Impact was still far behind the big Storms of 2010 (Xynthia), 2007 (Kyrill), 1999 (Lothar) or the Storm Series of 1990 (Daria, Vivian, Wiebke).
@@lukasrentz3238 Can't say the same here in the US. A lot of our tornadoes around this time of year are usually associated with these systems, and we're above average on the amount of tornadoes we've had so far this year.
@@gus-vanover Though the Storm System itself, beside the Tornado and Thunderstorm Outbreak usually is less noteworthy. What i´ve meant with the mentioned Storms above were Systems with high, often Hurricane Force Windspeeds even outside of Thunderstorms or frontal passages. Possibly better comparable to Nor´easters.
@@lukasrentz3238 I'm pretty sure they are pretty similar. If not the same kind of system at different stages. These cyclones can last for up to two weeks. Granted... I think where they form plays a roll. The more no'easter/windstorm types spend a lot of time over the oceans, where as the Mid-Latitude Cyclones that bring tornadoes to the Midwest form over land are over land.
That languange chart seems weird. I don't have the exact numbers there out of my head, but Germany alone should have much more than 75mio native speakers
Petition for drew to make a collection of historical countryballs after hes done with the real world ones that exist right now example kaiserreich no no germany ussr russian empire etc (day 1)
The part about the hurricanes is, that they simply cannot form at the equator. You need the coriolis force for them to form which isnt present at the equator area. You need to be round about 5 degrees of latitude away from the equator so the force is strong enough. And the temperature of sea currents are a important factor as well
I feel you Drew, as a native Californian, I only seen and touched real snow once. I don't like skiing or snowboarding so a visit to the mountains just for snow isn't worth it.
I was born in Texas, moved up to Kansas where my mom had lived when I was like 1, we get a few rounds of snow, and I want to move up to North Dakota when I'm an adult because of the colder temperatures. I'm just going north in a straight line throughout my entire life lol
In Poland it's not hard to go from one city to another, because we have really good train system and every city with at least 10 000+ people in it has a train station, even some villages have them if they are on the way from one city to another I live in a 35 000 people city near one of the biggest cities in our country and there are at least 12 trains a day to this city or from it
If you are in west or southern part then yes, there is a lot of trains, and a lot of lines rebuild in last decades. If you are in eastern parts then trains exist mostly in major towns or cities.
Djibouti actually makes a lot of it's income off of renting its land to other powers for military bases. My geopolitics teacher used to call it "The world's greatest territorial prostitute"
Hurricanes can’t cross the equator as there is no coriolis force which leads to the cyclonic spin. Even if hurricanes could go toward the equator, the equatorial trade winds would likely tear it to shreds.
a hurricane will never cross the equator, much like water in drains, hurricanes on the other hemisphere have the opposite spin. meaning if a huricane crosses the equator, it would have to lose all it's spinning momentum on the equator and suddenly spin the other direction when it crossed
I love how Drew said that Canada must be worse than California… I can confirm that there is NO snow where I live and actually yesterday the high was like 9 degrees Celsius! In spring, but actually a few weeks ago the weather was in the mid 20’s to low 30’s
Don't be fooled by the public transport map. It doesn't include the frequency and reliability of the transport. For Belgium, buses are the least reliable mode of transport with a scheduled frequency anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours. Bus services cover the majority of road surface, hence why Belgium looks very purple.
wow i never thought of germany as THE public transit place in europe but i guess when 60% of it is falling out and the other 50 is delayed all that network isn't gonna help you much
5:15 arabic has a lot of sub-languages (which is what people learn natively) msa is the "international" arabic, which is primarily literary and thus no one speaks it natively
10:19 Its so funny to me that londerers complain about the bus like outside of London public transport is hell at least compared to london. These ppl should be thanking the TFL and the mayor
0:39 most of russia's nuclear missiles are also in the kola peninsula (right next to finland) and they are only connected by 1 highway to the rest of russia, so finland joining NATo is super big
As someone from the Eastern Bloc, I'm not sure if "Finlandization" is really the political and diplomatic masterpiece people in the West seem to treat it as. Finland was basically dancing on the line of being that "Other allies of the Soviet Union" color on the map the whole time, while publicly claiming that they were still totally non-aligned. And everyone, East and West, knew that Finland would have no choice but to become a Soviet puppet if the world situation got heated enough that the Soviets demanded they take a side. It was mostly because the Soviets knew they could roll over Finland in a week if they sided against them that they even tolerated the charade the Finns were playing; and partially because having an ally that everyone officially had to pretend was non-aligned was useful for the Soviets diplomatic and intelligence affairs.
Tropical cyclones are called hurricanes in the Atlantic ocean and the eastern Pacific oceans, typhoons in the western Pacific oceans, and cyclones in the Indian ocean.
as a person from djibouti, i know that the name is funny, but we got way too many military bases, they built a pizza hut for the americans, and they made multiple private schools for military children in djibouti.
The case of arabic is special as unified arabic isn't native to any country (each country learns it at school but outside of school each region/country have it's own dialect )
so, they visited Denmark, cause the queen and the Danish queen are third cousin. However, the queen's husband was stripped of his title as the King of Greece, so the queen didn't go to Greece because her husband had beef with them.
It could be an issue with Prince Phillip since he was part of the Outed Greek royal family that she never visited Greece and same for Denmark but thinking since he was a Danish Prince there might be some weird protocol that he would have higher presidence there (just speculating)
6:30 it is impossible because it is very hard to make a part of a hurricane 🌀 spin the other direction against most of the other part then you will have to also change the wind speed by 1000kmph 700 mph to keep the same speed in the other direction and lastly nothing natural spins over the equator

Djibouti actually makes a lot of it's income off of renting its land to other powers for military bases. My geopolitics teacher used to call it "The world's greatest territorial prostitute"
Hurricanes can’t cross the equator as there is no coriolis force which leads to the cyclonic spin. Even if hurricanes could go toward the equator, the equatorial trade winds would likely tear it to shreds.
One of these days Drew may actually get kidnapped, and nobody would believe it.
a hurricane will never cross the equator, much like water in drains, hurricanes on the other hemisphere have the opposite spin. meaning if a huricane crosses the equator, it would have to lose all it's spinning momentum on the equator and suddenly spin the other direction when it crossed
I really want Drew to react to country names in German XD
They are cursed (in my opinion)
PARLAMENTARISCHE DEMOKRATISCHE BUNDESREPUBLIK DEUTSCHLAND
Now I'm curious as to which nations you are referring to?
@@Geographynerd420 just look at them XD
The best example I can think of right now is
Chad=Tschad
@@Dreaming_Cat404 Tschad just comes from the fact that English's ⟨ch⟩ sound is represented by ⟨tsch⟩ in German
@@notthatntg yes I'm aware but it just looks so jumbled
Well for hurricane to cross the equator the passats would have to blow different. So litterally it would have to start blowing winds of change.
10:48 I am from Belgium and can not agree more
Name a French colony that is now a succesful country, I'm waiting
0:33 yes, it's the US :)
In Europe it's clearly a big deal
Snow pack in MN was crazy, and then we got up to 80 degrees for three straight days, and it all melted…and then we got two snow storms the next week😂😂
I think we should hire officer Sanchez To kidnap drew's kidnapper
I love how Drew said that Canada must be worse than California… I can confirm that there is NO snow where I live and actually yesterday the high was like 9 degrees Celsius! In spring, but actually a few weeks ago the weather was in the mid 20’s to low 30’s
We Belgians like to complain about our trains and trams and busses, but you can get pretty much get everywhere, if you have some patience
About train and spain...check population. Sparse populated areas (nearly all the central part of the country) have very little of everything.
Don't be fooled by the public transport map. It doesn't include the frequency and reliability of the transport. For Belgium, buses are the least reliable mode of transport with a scheduled frequency anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours. Bus services cover the majority of road surface, hence why Belgium looks very purple.
Keep up the good work love your videos 😊
wow i never thought of germany as THE public transit place in europe but i guess when 60% of it is falling out and the other 50 is delayed all that network isn't gonna help you much
What is the best way to summon French people?
restart the british empire
5:15 arabic has a lot of sub-languages (which is what people learn natively) msa is the "international" arabic, which is primarily literary and thus no one speaks it natively
10:19 Its so funny to me that londerers complain about the bus like outside of London public transport is hell at least compared to london. These ppl should be thanking the TFL and the mayor
Day To Of The Community Trying To Help Drew
Don’t ever say that Belgium is better at infrastructure when your with people from the Netherlands ( I’m warning you )
Queen Elizabeth actually visited Yugoslavia, only reason you don't see Yugoslavia on this map is because Yugoslavia isn't around anymore.
4:40 "But they do beat Germany as Germany has only 75 native speakers and 59 foreign ones" 🗿🗿🗿
11:43 yes this is shocking that Italy has not impressing public transport.
In Germany you can now travel for 49€ and get every bus, train, Tram etc. except the ICE which is the high speed train.
Petition for Drew to put the flag of the German Empire in the background (Day 93)
jawohl
Might be controversial as it also was the nazi flag for some years as well as the flag of several military police groups
@@maxthetube8466 The German empire was different and TH-cam only care if this symbol is in the video: 卐
0:39 most of russia's nuclear missiles are also in the kola peninsula (right next to finland) and they are only connected by 1 highway to the rest of russia, so finland joining NATo is super big
As someone from the Eastern Bloc, I'm not sure if "Finlandization" is really the political and diplomatic masterpiece people in the West seem to treat it as. Finland was basically dancing on the line of being that "Other allies of the Soviet Union" color on the map the whole time, while publicly claiming that they were still totally non-aligned. And everyone, East and West, knew that Finland would have no choice but to become a Soviet puppet if the world situation got heated enough that the Soviets demanded they take a side. It was mostly because the Soviets knew they could roll over Finland in a week if they sided against them that they even tolerated the charade the Finns were playing; and partially because having an ally that everyone officially had to pretend was non-aligned was useful for the Soviets diplomatic and intelligence affairs.
7:27 as a Canadian, I can confirm we suffer
Tropical cyclones are called hurricanes in the Atlantic ocean and the eastern Pacific oceans, typhoons in the western Pacific oceans, and cyclones in the Indian ocean.
as a person from djibouti, i know that the name is funny, but we got way too many military bases, they built a pizza hut for the americans, and they made multiple private schools for military children in djibouti.
The case of arabic is special as unified arabic isn't native to any country (each country learns it at school but outside of school each region/country have it's own dialect )
5:40 Drew is a hurricane confirmed
I live in the Philippines and I can confirm that typhoons happen frequently that it's almost considered normal.
Drew out here using the Vicky 2 map as historical data
0:20 you're wrong right off the bat. Královec is in Czechia, not Russia.
Cyclones/typhoons cant really o over the equator since theyd have to change their spin direction to do it
1:19 this map was shown Andrew by his Argentinian grandfather
how did the Queen not visit Greece or Denmark even once. I mean her husband was literally a Prince of Greece and Denmark and they never went there?
so, they visited Denmark, cause the queen and the Danish queen are third cousin. However, the queen's husband was stripped of his title as the King of Greece, so the queen didn't go to Greece because her husband had beef with them.
8:57 of course she would visit Guyana it used to be hers she probably went their to do some official things when Guyana gained independence
The British queen not visiting Denmark seems odd to me as the royal houses are family of each other
Oh my, i am a native Brit living in BC in Canada, Dear God it snows heavy here!, there is still snow!, it is still snowing! Absolutely mad!
It is surprising that queen Elizabeth never visited the Greece as prince Philip was from the Greece.
It could be an issue with Prince Phillip since he was part of the Outed Greek royal family that she never visited Greece and same for Denmark but thinking since he was a Danish Prince there might be some weird protocol that he would have higher presidence there (just speculating)
the Queen was also best buddies with the Danish Queen
Petition for Drew Durnil to collab with Druuuwu
*Day 4*
I feel like the imposter Drew is doing a much better job.
6:30 it is impossible because it is very hard to make a part of a hurricane 🌀 spin the other direction against most of the other part then you will have to also change the wind speed by 1000kmph 700 mph to keep the same speed in the other direction and lastly nothing natural spins over the equator
Drew, is that the Lithuanian coat of arms in the background?
The Patreon credits really are something nowadays. Nice work, Patrons
Queen Elizabeth II visited Croatia and Serbia, but while it was still Yugoslavia
Whats crazy is the queen visited a town of Like 10,000 in Wyoming in 1984
5:40 Drew implies he is a hurricane
It’s physically impossible for storms to cross the equator given the rotation of the earth.
Since WW2:
Germany: moving west
Poland: moving west
Russia: moving east
I guess Belarus is the greatest winner then
in shwitzerland, you have in a 4 kilometer radius a train station
