So right away I can tell this globe was manufactured between 1948 and 1956. India and Pakistan are separate countries (this partition happened in 1947) and Morocco and Tunisia are still colored in French blue so its pre 1956 because those 2 countries gained independence from France in that year. So, that’s 1948-1956. To narrow it further I would check the border between North and South Korea. If it runs straight across the 38th parallel north, the globe was made before 1953. If not, then it was made between 1953-56. That’s the best I could do without seeing the globe firsthand 😅 Edit: No border on Korea means pre-1953! So between 1948 and 1953. Edit 2: If you want to narrow it down even further, you can check and see if Tibet is independent or a part of China. China annexed Tibet in 1950 and after a brief period of Tibetan independence since 1912.
@artemisbond9923, this is cool information to know. Don't mind me asking, but how do you know so much about globes?? I mean, sure, you could've googled it, but this "felt" like prior knowledge, and Google uses - YOU for that information, lol 😆 😆 😉.
@@surfinsamoan08 Thank you for your kind words, friend. I have an MA in History and, while I no longer teach history for a living, I still spend several hours a week reading about world history for pleasure. That, and I’ve always had a really good memory, which helps with remembering dates of things like famous battles and so on.
@@artemisbond9923 man, that's really cool! Seriously, it is. I work in education, but I don't teach. That said, I consider myself a "history buff," but nothing like this. What are the things that you to read??
@@surfinsamoan08 For history I always started with the most basic and broadest introductions, like textbooks. Then I move on to individual countries or civilizations that I think are interesting. To keep it fresh I rotate my subjects and try to read a book a week, so 4 a month. This month is Japan month for me. So far this month I have read 3 books on Japanese history (which is very cool btw). Next month I am going back to Italian history. This keeps me from getting bored by reading about only 1 country. And my secret guilty pleasure is alternate history which is basically fiction about subjects like “what would have happened if the South won the American Civil War?” and scenarios like that. Definitely not serious stuff but diverting. 😅
@artemisbond9923 Man, listen, I just got giddy over this. This is really cool. In gonna kinda take what you do, and "keep it fresh!" That said, I really do love those "What if?" Scenarios (I'm looking at YOU, Disney with their spin-off of, 'What if?' I'm half Samoan, so, I think it's only right that I start my country research with Polynesia! I'm super pumped!
Gotta be from 1948 or 1949, If it was 50 and after germany would be split and also labrador and newfoundland would be part of canada; but if it was 47 and earlier it would have India and Pakistan together.
I recently learned that if you look up the diameter of the globe at the Equator, multiply it by pi, which is 3.14, and then divide that by 24, that not only gives you the average length of a single time zone, but it's also the earth's speed of rotation.
I like studying maps and cartography. I have seen medieval maps before 1492 and it was amazing the accuracy. 1600s maps are quite unique, especially in North America.
It was me who suggested that you should cover the middle east conflict lol. I feel honored that you still remember my comment. Thanks for the great video again.
It took me a shockingly long time at the start to realise what you meant by dating a globe, and I literally thought the video was gonna be you pretending to go on a date with a globe and that you’d be talking about geography facts to try and impress it 🤦♂️
My mind went in the completely wrong direction with that title. I was about to ask what globes drank during dates and if they were afraid of commitment. Why is English so English?

Whenever I see old globes I always date them by looking at countries, specifically their names and their borders.
After watching, tell me what year you date this one? I’m not sure I was correct on this one.
As always, thanks for watching!
@@Nofrillsasmr This globe dates to between 1948 and 1953. See my comment above. And thank you Linda for your sweet replies. 😊

Lovely video Linda! Ive always loved how vintage globes looked like, especially the ones with yellowish-brown background. Those were my favorite!
I like those too. This one has just a bit too much blue for me. Thanks for watching!! 🗺️

I WAS LITERALLY LOOKING FOR THIS KIND OF VIDEO LIKE A WEEK AGO LOL IVE ALWAYS WANTED ONE OF THESE
Cool! Thanks for watching!

You could read the encyclopedia backward and forward and your voice would relax me. Keep posting Linda!
Thanks for saying so!
23:10 Thailand was briefly renamed Siam from 1945 to 1948, after which it again reverted to Thailand.
Thanks!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate this!!
The title made me giggle 😂
Lol!!
I always remember latitude because latitude lines are like rungs of a ladder - ladder, latitude. idk it works for me
It was me who suggested that you should cover the middle east conflict lol. I feel honored that you still remember my comment. Thanks for the great video again.
I feel like i have learned more in asmr videos than i ever did in school
@@PaulSmith-fd2gy me too!
@@Nofrillsasmr i was today years old when i learned what that ring on the globe does lmao
Really enjoy your videos. The Bermuda Triangle would be a cool video idea if you’re up for it. I’m a fan of informational asmr
I love that idea! I’m not sure when, but it’s coming! 🔺
I love how you always say “but any way” super fast 🤣
Anyone else think this was going to be a roleplay of her on a date with a globe?
latitude is flat-itude!
Latitude is flat-itude - I love it!!
We have cruise ships call every week to the port near me in Ireland that take a Scandinavian route. Pop by! 🤣👋
Do you like gloves that have had quite a lot of use or brand new ones?
😂
Try 1946, Europe has modern Poland , so at least 1945.
Vietnam is blue just east of Thailand. All blue countries on the globe are French colonies.
Thank you! That's interesting!
Latitude is like a ladder
Cant lie i was getting a little mad watching you look for korea and veitnam 😭
can u do more whispered asmr i mis it so
latitude, like a ladder!

Lol!! It was supposed to be a joke at the beginning when I said “I want to date this globe, but first want to make sure it’s old enough”! 😂😂😂
My mind went in the completely wrong direction with that title. I was about to ask what globes drank during dates and if they were afraid of commitment. Why is English so English?
@@DVMightyMouse the best thing about dating a globe is it’s very down to earth. 😉
🤣🤣 Good one! 👏👏👏
And if it gets mad at you, it'll always come around.
@@DVMightyMouse 😂😂😂
Desperately trying to reach through the screen to point out Vietnam 🫠
