The most obvious reason why Mexicans started speaking Spanish is because it was a former Spanish colony.
It was a former Spanish province a Vicereinato. In Spain our territorial in America were formally same organically and legaly that we here in Spain.
Which only makes sense, considering (almost) the ENTIRE new World belongs to Spain, because the Pope said so!
@@mara_jade021 Isn't that just a nicer way of calling it a (former) colony?
@@DarrellSluis No we had exactly same laws in Galicia as in Mexico. We didn't separate as the British did. They were also called Spanish by the law literature and government.
Celtic minorities like mine were more oppressed than people in America. The reason why my people run away from here in mass.
It was a corrupt very classist regime but it was exactly as oppressive here as there
@@mara_jade021Viceroyalties definitely had laws of their own and spaniards born there could never achieve the highest posts of the colony, even if the main corpus of the law was the same.
I live in Lincoln, England. American tourist says, "Wow, you named your city after one of our presidents!" Mind blown when he is told that Lincoln existed for about 2000 years before Abraham Lincoln was born 😆🤣

I don’t think most Americans realize how old other parts of the world are because we’re a young country. At least young compared to world history.
Wait till they hear new york, new Amsterdam and many many other cities are named after our cities… I’ve seen vids of Americans being offended we have a country called Montenegro as that’s racist…
@@daviddieudonne7829 oh dear god 🤦♀️
@@daviddieudonne7829 Funnily enough other parts of the world except that some explorers had absolutely no imagination I.e. New Holland and New South Wales original names of terra Australis and New Zealand (Dutch Province) all named after mother country locations. NSW in Oz
As for deodorant... _The first known recording of deodorizing came from the Ancient Egyptians and Romans who applied crushed carob pods to their bodies, took frequent baths, and used scented oils to deodorize_
In short the USA didn't create deodorant they just patented it, like they do with everything...
Yes, it's a cash thing obvs! 👍🇬🇧🤪
USA is literally a melting pot of basically anything that comes from outside USA (language, religions, "food") only few things actually come from USA but only few of those few are actually good things.
It is the same with the AC. The patent of that time, took a technique that was already used worldwide.
But don't worry about it. The Americans now buy expensive AC in Europe, because they themselves are too stupid to solder a hairdryer.
LASEK eye surgery created by a Columbian, developed by a Russian, patented by an American... Then they wonder why China ignores patents....
Interessant 🧐
About the air conditioning: When I was visiting America every store or restaurant was cooled down to the point where you actually needed a hoody or something to keep warm. Also, the doors open wide and automatically in most places. One of the biggest wastes of energy I have ever seen. Of course we don't do that. Since seeing that, I'm convinced the rest of the world could do whatever they want to save the climate, as long as these kinds of things don't change, all hope is lost. So yeah, enjoy your 5°C Applebees meal whilst the planet catches fire.
Spot on
what about when it is so hot that even with 2 ACs on in a house, in an hour you sweat 2 pounds of water, just sitting, in normal clothes (which get absolutely drenched with sweat)
I agree but to a certain point. I have a medical disability that’s sensitive to heat/cold. Unfortunately I need some AC so I don’t relapse. I got sick at one hotel in Europe because of no AC. It’s not fun and it’s annoying to have to think of this stuff on vacation, but it is what it is 🤷🏻♀️
I would say AC is pretty common in southern europe? At least here in spain you find it everywhere.
holy crap, for real?? Yet here we are in The Netherlands (a dot on the world map) paying 60% climate tax on our bills of electricity and gas. What a hoax
The name "Diet Coke" had to be changed to "Coke Lite" in many countries (UK is one exception here) to avoid giving the impression that a Diet Cola supports a Diet or is part of a healthier diet.
Being from the UK i was confused,lol
Almost correct. Diet Coke uses the artificial sweeter xylitol which is banned in the EU for it is considered cancerogenic as demonstrated in animal tests. So, yeah, the lady was kinda right. The Diet Coke she uses to poison herself with in the USA isn't available as such. The Coke company has to use a different artificial sweetener in the EU so the taste is different. The name change had to follow suit.
@@RustyDust101 - _"to poison herself"_ - Couldn't agree more!
@@RustyDust101 Xylitol is not artificial, it's one of the natural sugars you find in a whole bunch of plants. Though it can be produced industrially, but so can a whole lot of things. I have never heard of it being a carcinogen. It's not banned in the EU, either. It's not used in drinks because in high enough doses, it's a laxative. For humans, getting the runs is the worst it can cause you if you consume it too much. It's not good for dogs, though. As a result you only find it in tooth-friendly cough lozenges, chewing gums, vitamin supplements, medicine, and such, where the dose doesn't get that high.
I reckon you are thinking of some totally different sweetener and confusing it with xylitol.
@@RustyDust101 xylitol is definitely NOT banned in the EU. All our gum and sugar free candy has xylitol up in my EU-member country. It's written in the packaging, bold and proud.
They speak Spanish in Mexico for the same reason they speak English in the US .... colonialism!
And Canada?? Since the fur trade started how long ago??
You're welcome.
It was sarcasm
Sooo true!!!! Don't forget portuguese, dutch and french too.
Technically not correct, many areas spoke English before colonies were attempted, Americans had travelled outside their borders as much as Europeans travelled in, especially towards Asia, the confusion was because they “presumed” they had come from area like what is now Russia, no one knew there was a whole another continent. There was lots of interaction with “American” people and English people in the far east before England colonised America
I think what annoys me most about Americans getting things wrong is when they say they are going to Europe, or they don't do this or that in Europe. Europe is a continent and has 50 countries, all of which are different.
The term African-American is worse; be honest, it means BLACK. Northern Africans are not black.
First you have to explain the difference between a continent and a country.
Then see if a Texan can understand that Paris is the capital of a country called France in the continent of Europe where the US government has zero authority.
I agree very strongly with you. I absolutely hate it when Americans refer to the UK as Europe, I always say to Americans now who say this is “oh, what country in Europe are you visiting?”. I just love watching their brains becoming scrambled as they realise that Europe is not (UK) a country. 😆😆 🇬🇧🇬🇧
I guess as to travel to europe and visit several countries in a short period of time is why we americans from Mexico say we are going to europe, most of the times you don't travel that far to stay in 1 country only. When you go to Spain, or France only, you say so, I'm going to Spain or France. Besides, the EU has rules that makes it to have some similar standards for many things. That's 1 thing, some americans refer to europe as U.K. because they don't travel to a non english speaking countries. But others don't even know in England they speaks english, believe it or not.
The pizza is from Italy and it's really old. You probably wouldn't recognize pre-Neapolitan pizza, since it didn't have any toppings. Modern pizza was invented in 1889 in Naples.
In fact, "pizza" is 5000+ years old and the name comes from "pita", which in MANY languages just means "bread".
Technically, pizza is nothing but "bread", since all variations are just made of wheat and water - all other ingredients were put in and onto later.
1889 was only the birth of the so called neapolitean style, which means that it is really thin and crunchy, nothing else.
Even in Italy, there are at least four different mayor styles of pizza and there was at least some sort of "truth" in the claim in the video, since what the US today knows and inherits as "their" pizza was indeed created by italien immigrants, but only to make it easier for the rest to adapt to it.
I agree with Ryan, I like the "american style" pizza the most, especially from chicago, cause if I want to eat a cracker, I order a cracker and that's what neapoletana pizza is all about.
@@Eysenbeiss Neapolitan Pizza crunchy, have u ever tried it ?!?!?!? maybe...MAYBE u talking about shitty roman pizza...
@@Eysenbeiss I think you should inform yourself better. Neapolitan pizza is much better than the "American" one, it's like saying you prefer McDonald's hamburgers to the real thing. I'm sorry to say it like this, but what they do in the USA is different, not to mention all the "improvable" substances they use as chemical flavor enhancers.
Obviously there will be pizzerias or specialized restaurants in the USA that will make magnificent pizzas, but it is not common.
To start the dough must have a fermentation and rest time, you need a good olive oil, good tomatoes and cheeses. And in the USA you don't have the same quality that we have in Italy, Spain or France, honestly.
Flatbrad of nearly the same process exists nearly everywhere. From Marocco to Kasachstan , from Somalia to Noway, From Georgia to India. Even in the americas some kind of flatbread exists. And it's ancient, there are more than 14 000 year old finds.
Nope we Greeks invented it every historian teacher or professor knows this. You just make it perfect
so strange to see how americans think of Europe as a unit (like the USA), instead of dozens of very different countries with very heavily mixed populations.... there is no such thing as "we europeans" because 90% of us don't even understand what the others say, so when I hear "you guys in Europe" I'm just confused, because I don't know who they talk about
Like when I was in England, and said I was Canadian, I was startled at the response. Even though it's a Commonwealth country, almost 100% of people I met would say I was American, because I came from North America. My response was always, "You wacky Europeans are all the same." That went over big in London 🙂
@@timithiuswell, they were not wrong.
@@timithius Actually in Europe we call Americans to whoever comes from America. Only Americans consider that the only Americans are US citizens.
I'm sorry for the revelation but you are American. If you were from Argentina or Brazil, or even Martinica (which is actually a French territory) you would be American too.
*hahahaha* that´s true
r/technically correct.@@timithius
9:20 they're saying circumcision is against human rights, because you're amputating a part of a body of a child who can't concent to it.
I agree with this. As a mother of three sons, none of mine had it done and it has never caused any kind of problem.
correct, it is in the same level as FGM. From atheist point of view it does not make sense, as it is violation of human body. From religious point of view, if you are not Jewish or Muslim, why would you even do it. Even then, it is barbaric, old practice, that should be outlawed. Only if it is medical emergency and it is not possible to treat it, then I could understand, other than that, no, outlaw it.
To muddy the waters even further, there is a practice of women circumcision... and let's just say that there could be more adept terms to it...
@@liveforever141 It's just the usual double standard.
The genital mutilation of non-consenting girls in Africa for cultural/religious reasons is a horrible practice and should be stopped.
The genital mutilation of non-consenting boys in America for cultural/religious reasons is perfectly normal and socially encouraged.
If I remember well, the name ,"Diet Coke" was changed to "light" as the word "Diet" seemed to be misleading some consumers into believing that the product would solve their health/overweight problems as if it were medicine .

How can a medical bill charge you for refusing to be treated? It's absurd...
Sums the country up exactly doesn't it?
The only thing I can think of is if a doctor assessed you, spent time on the assessment, recommended treatment, and you then said no, so it's a bill for the time assessing you.
@@lloydcollins6337 I'd assume it would be billed as the doctor's time (because of how the payment structure works) in that case, "refused medical treatment" sounds like a purely administrative charge.
@@lloydcollins6337 Yes and in addition, when you called 911 or local emergency and then refuse it, you have to pay, as if you had been treated.
If it were the time to diagnose the problem i would expect to see "diagnosis" or "anamnesis" instead of "refused treatment".
On the matter of the air con, it's not that we are unfamiliar or unable to utilize said technology, its just that in many places its not that necessary. Warmer, southern europe to my understanding does have more air cons, but up north its not really needed. Our houses are built to insulate, aka keep the heat out in the summer and warmth in in the winter, so the house doesn't even warm up to begin with (unless a very hot long lasting heat wave it starts to seep in). And its also not necessary to waste electricity on running an air con at full blast to keep the house at max 70F if even, when youre perfectly capable of living in slightly warmer temps during summertime. Open the windows to keep the air flowing and youre set. Obviously the air cons would be much more common in here if people actually felt that they were necessary or worth the investment. Many cases they're just not.
I live south of the alps where it gets a bit warmer. I actually have an AC (only blowing in the hallway where the bedroom door is) installed by the preowners. I use it about 5-10times a year for some hours in the night for a better sleep. That's all.
Yes thats true, the weather there is really comfortable. Shhh don't tell americans you invented things they believe were made by them!!! You know cars, laws and constitution, cientific names to species. Greetings from northern México 😊
Yeah way I see it ACs are a sign that your architecture and building design sucks, there are plenty of ways to make interiors be comfortable without it
Nah, here in Australia it's boiling hot for a large part of the year people still don't have AC because it is so expensive to buy and run. In America it is much cheaper to buy AC, and much cheaper to run.
I remember a former teacher of mine coming over for a visit (I attended an international school in Southeast Asia). She is from the US and was amazed I don’t have airconditioning in my home and that it was so cool inside despite the Summer heat. I explained:
1) architecture: our houses are well insulated yet offer plenty of possibilities for ventilation (opening windows) to take advantage of whichever circumstances are to our advantage.
2) no-cost measures: close the drapes on the sunny side of the house, create drafts when you want the heat to escape by strategically opening windows when the air is cooler (f.ex. at night
3) safety: generally, we feel safe opening a window for ventilation when we’re home
4) clever use of fans is cheaper than using an aircon
5) adaptation: if you don’t live 24/7 in an airconditioned environment, your body tends to adapt. It’s the difference in temperature between inside and outside that creates the perception of coolness. A temperature difference of 5-10 degrees Celsius feels vast
After several months in my country, she didn’t miss the airconditioning anymore. When she returned to the US she applied some of the techniques she’d learned to keep her house naturally cool. Apparently it saves her a lot of money… which she is saving up to improve both the ventilation and insulation of her house.
If you think we need AC in Ireland.... God love you.
I'm from Germany and lived in Ireland for three months. The lack of temperature differences was my biggest culture shock there.
@@janax6794 More of a nature shock, really.
Same in Sweden 😸👍
If I was to use a huge amount of money to have AC installed in my home here in Denmark only to use it two, maybe three, times a year, I’d feel so stupid! Instead I just open a window. 😂
@@Dabluekitten Haha, för några år sen var det lika varmt på nyårsafton som på midsommarafton.
For international viewers:
A few years ago, we had the same temperature on new year's eve that we had on midsummer's eve.
Along that logic I assume that some Americans are thinking that England has been discovered by some clever American travellers ...
that would be the height of comedy and tragedy if somebody even one person seriously think that
As an American, I would cry at that point. Somehow these people are asleep during history class or relied on what “mama said” during homeschooling 😑
Love that. It's hilarious 🤣
Well, there are vids of Americans being surprised British people speak English that well… that’s right up there imo
@@daviddieudonne7829 They've never been to Glasgae
As someone else has probably said, in UK and Europe you can't use the term diet because it implies that drinking it would help you lose weight
It's 'diet coke' in the UK.
@@mehallica666 Same stupid base language, but at least the UK is trying to swap from "diet" to the correct term, which is "Nutrition", like in almost any other european language.
A diet in all of these countries is a special kind of nutrition, mostly calory reduced and that's the reason why this term isn't allowed on such products for other regions besides the UK.
UK is Europe, too...
that makes no sense.. anything you eat is a diet.. there is no diet that helps you lose weight, only eating in calory deficit will.. on any diet.. even diet on pure sugar
@@claudiakonig7771 I know a lot of english people (using the word english intentionally) that would disagree with you on that...and some Scotts that would agree with them for very different reasons 😏
Lets say it is...more complicated than one would expect 😁
Air conditioning consumes a lot of energy.
It actually would be better to build houses
that keep out the heat in summer
and let in the warmth in winter.
The USA use more energy for cooling and heating ALONE than the entire continent of Africa for ALL demands.
Was right with you up until the last line... WHAT warmth in winter, tho? o.O
@@irrelevant_noobhe meant one that keeps the warmth inside
I have an air conditioner (air sourced heat pump) in my wife’s Pilates studio in my garden. In winter it takes the latent heat in the air and compresses it making warmer air. This system was theorised by Lord Kelvin in Glasgow in 1862. For every 1kw of energy going into the system I get 3.6kw of heating. It is actually the most efficient way of heating bar none!
@@irrelevant_noob my house in winter is always around 16C with heaters of fire off, but it's an old house, my store is around 16 too, but it has lot of open space, so i only need to warm it till 18C
Ryan,
For your information, all school, from Kindergarten to the University is free in Germany and is paid for via your taxes.
Spain took over South America which is why all of South America - except for Brazil -speak Spanish. Brazil speaks Portuguese, because of the Treaty of Tordesillas with Spain and Portugal which divided the world into two halves: the western half was given to Spain; and the eastern half belonged to Portugal. The dividing line went down the Atlantic ocean and what is now Brazil was in the Portuguese half of the world.
Suriname and French Guyana and Belize do not speak Spanish. They speak Dutch, French and English. Everything else is correct in your comment.
Es gibt durchaus Studiengebühren, aber grundsätzlich stimmt die Aussage schon. Das andere schauste dir lieber noch mal genauer an, denn wenn die Trennline IM Atlantik gelegen hätte, hätte Portugal NICHTS von Südamerika bekommen, dafür aber quasi ganz Afrika.
@@EysenbeissDamals mag da so gewesen sein, heute aber ist es wie genannt.
It's not paid for with taxes. It's paid for with public spending, which is money issue spent into existence. Taxation is what happens when public spending (and other money issue) is redeemed for fiscal space. The 'funded from taxes' myth is what has caused the EU to be a monolith of monetarist nonsense.
Hm merkwürdig, meine Studiengebühren und Kosten für einen Kindergartenplatz sagen das Gegenteil. Ob ich wohl ne Rückerstattung bekomme?
I used to work in Spain. The area I lived in regularly got to 46C (114F) in summer. I would have died without air conditioning 🤯. They also had persianas (automatic roller blinds) on all the windows in order to keep the heat out of your house while you were at work, which was also a godsend 😍

Underrated comment😂
About 25 years ago, a cuban-american dorctor and a former US soldier came to Mallorca to visit my family in law. They brought a Jack Daniel's bottle because they thought they couldn't find it here (you could find it in any store). Funny thing is they were truly amazed when we went shopping because our mall was much betters than the one they had in Miami. Not because it was bigger or you could find more things but because it was much cleaner, more well organized and groceries were much higher quality.
“Pizza dates back thousands of years, believe it or not, tracing its roots back to the flatbreads with toppings that were popular with ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans. But modern pizza, the flatbreads with tomato sauce, cheese, and toppings, was born along the western coast of Italy, in the city of Naples” in the 1700s.
Didn’t they find frescoes in Pompeii with what is basically a pizza. Pompeii is a city near Naples Italy which got covered in volcanic ash 2000 or so years ago so how can Americans think they invented’ pizza. Typical because of course anything good must have been invented there. 🙄😊
One phrase Americans should STOP using is (I go to Europe or I was in Europe) for us Europeans that makes no sence, like what culture you went true? Was it Swedish? Was it Greek? or Portuguese for example? Just remember EVRY COUNTRY IN EUROPE IS INDEPENDENT «« I.N.D.E.P.E.N.D.E.N.T.»» WITH DIFERENT CULTURES.
That's funny. I lived in the eastern part of Russian and we usually said the exact thing: have you ever been to Europe? Europe this, Europe that. And it's not because we don't know the difference, it's just a geopolitical bullshit.The Russian government opposes itself to Europe, so people often hear about Europe, Asia, the Middle East, as if they were a single culture each. At the same time, most civilians understand perfectly well that these are completely different countries, with their own languages and their own culture.
Most funniest thing is that if we put glass of water front of you in anywhere Europe, you'd be like "OMG! This is the most amazing spring water what I've tasted!! What label this is...?" And then we tell you it's just our REGULAR tap water ;)
Depend were you live. Have tasted « amazing » tap water (and not so good) in Europe.
@@BB-un2ts Agreed London tap water, though safe, tastes horrible.
I live in southern Germany. We have to filter spring water to drink it
@@phoenixfeathers4128 Hi, can you elaborate on that? I'm from southern Germany too, and I've never heard of that, ever. Only thing that happened once was that the tap water was chlorinated for a week or so, as a precautionary measure.
Yup my grandmas tap water actually IS spring water (her city is near a spring, and yes, they bottle it and sell it). Our tap water doesnt even contain chlorine because its that clean already.
Coke Light is the name of Diet Coke because in some countries in Europe the claim this kind of fizzy drink is fit for diets is contested.
And yesssss pizzas are originally from ITALY. But the American pizzas are adapted versions to "American" likes.
Coke lite has a different name in Europe because Diet coke has different ingredients which are banned in the EU and any other reasonable country. Because ingredients arent the same it can't have the same name.
Nothing like a real pizza 🍕 with fresh ingredients and no canned like US. They did the same with our food of México using ingredients we never use like sour cream or cheddar!!!!

@@roanoke7551really? I've seen several comparisons like "this product here vs here" and I believe they were called the same way despite having different ingredients. Skittles, for example? And the rainbow cereals, made with real fruit juices and being way less colorful.

The original Air Conditioner was invented in Greece 3,700yrs ago.
It involved an aquaduct with running water beside a house with a water wheel attached to a windmill to blow cool air through a vent in the side of the house.
Modern pizza evolved from flatbread dishes in Naples, Italy, in the 18th or early 19th century. The word pizza was first documented in AD 997 in Gaeta
Not in Gaeta “ that was part of Naples”, but in Naples itself!
As far i learned it was invented in Turkey and came to Italy later, but then if you look around the world, everyone has their form of flat bread dishes and top it. You find it in all old cultures, really
Everyone has a brain fart once in a while! Lol I was working in Canmore Alberta Canada years ago: a high tourist attraction near Banff when an American asks me Why are our Dollars different colours ? I responded that we ran out of green ink, he simply said oh that’s so sad 😞

The metric system were in invented in France. Weight and volume is based on water:I.e, a litre of water weighs one kilo. A thousand litres is one cubic metre. The measurement of length is derived from a subdivision of the distance between the equator and the north pole. Although the imperial system were not standardised for a long time when it comes to gallons, both the U.S and U.K have 8 pints in a gallon however, the weights and volume are different which makes the U.K gallon bigger at 4.54 liters to one U.K gallon and 3.83 litres to a U.S gallon. A mile is based on a old Roman measurement of a 1000 passes and is also based on how far a legionnaire could walk in an hour. I hope I have bored everyone enough 😊

We use miles in the UK, not kilometres. And we invented Imperial measurements, that's why it's called Imperial, i.e. from the British Empire.

We standardised some that existed before.

Except the UK learned to let go, well mostly, the US is either too stubborn or too stupid to let go.
The UK uses miles, but that’s the only imperial measurement still widely used there. For the rest, as far as I’m aware, they switched to the ISU a few decades ago.
Based on your comment "why do they speak Spanish in Mexico?" Had me thinking. Why do you speak English in America?

From wikipedia:
Pizza is a traditional Italian dish typically consisting of a flat base of leavened wheat-based dough topped with tomato, cheese, and other ingredients, baked at a high temperature, traditionally in a wood-fired oven.
The term pizza was first recorded in the year 997 AD, in a Latin manuscript from the southern Italian town of Gaeta, in Lazio, on the border with Campania. Raffaele Esposito is often credited for creating modern pizza in Naples. In 2009, Neapolitan pizza was registered with the European Union as a traditional speciality guaranteed dish. In 2017, the art of making Neapolitan pizza was added to UNESCO's list of intangible cultural heritage.
How could you agree with us Europeans not being hooked on A/C?
A/C is a disaster for the climate, for all the Americans care!...
In Europe, we can survive a little discomfort for a few weeks/year. A/C is only necessary in hospitals, old age pensioners' homes, nurseries, ... well, to protect fragile people. Are Americans that fragile?

Not very common in Britain / UK.
@@DeltaMikeTorreviejaN homes no. In offices and shops yes.
I am from Macedonia and have two AC at my apartment 😂 just like almost everybody here
But in the US the air con is insane, I remember traveling by train from Washington DC to New York and me and my friends (Spanish) and the Italian guys sitting behind us were freezing, to the point of putting on jackets or tucking our arms inside our tshirts,... I remember as if it was yesterday one of the Italian guys walking up and down the aisle cursing at how cold it was; meanwhile Americans were in shorts, tshirts and strapless dresses, like it was nothing. That's why when they visit Europe they complain about the air con.
OK this has me questioning on how other EU houses are because here in Portugal most have some kind of device for acclimatization, AC or others. (unless it's probably really old)

Air conditioning is for the most part a HUGE waste of energy - costly electricity bills and unnecessary CO2 emissions. A US thing, we can VERY well do without in Europe and other parts of the world - except in special buildings for special purposes. When it is hot, close the windows and draw the curtains/blinds where the sun shines in. Insulate buildings for both hot and cold weather. Cross ventilation. I have lived and worked in very hot and humid parts of the world without air-conditioning. Sensible buildings and behaviour made it ok.
Air conditioning or specifically the heat pump which is the basis of an air conditioning system was theorised by Lord Kelvin (the Kelvin heat scale used by scientists) in 1862 in Glasgow, Scotland. He didn’t actually make a working system because he didn’t have the electricity to make it work. The first refrigerators (that also use the heat pump) were originally called Kelvinators.
CFCs (developed as a refrigerant) and leaded petrol - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Midgley_Jr.
'In 1940, at the age of 51, Midgley contracted polio and was left severely disabled. He devised an elaborate system of ropes and pulleys to lift himself out of bed. On November 2, 1944, at the age of 55, he was found dead at his home in Worthington, Ohio. He had been killed by his own device after he became entangled in it and died of strangulation. His death was ruled a suicide by the coroner.'

Europe has AC. It is just that it is a massive energy waste. And with well insulated houses you can manage temperature pretty well. Adding to that, there are many places where it rarely gets that hot that an AC would be needed.
Europeans aren’t ready for air conditioning????😂😂😂😂😂 gosh, Americans are not updated 😂😂😂😂
Diet Coke(coke Light) is almost impossible to get in some parts of Europe, cause it was replaced by Coke Zero. I live in Poland next to Czech border. In Poland Coke Light was totally replaced by Coke Zero and in Czech both Zero and Light(diet) exist but light its only available in big supermarkets.
We have Coke, Diet Coke and Coke zero and their sub flavours in the UK. I seem to remeber seeing Coke Lite many years ago but it didn't last as a name.
now you say it, I haven't seen Coke light during the last 10 years
We do not use the term Diet Cola, because in Polish the word "dietetyczna" (diet) suggests that the product has some dietary properties, which in the case of any Cola is simply not true. Zero (no sugar at all) and light (less sweet) makes more sense.
Yup. I'm French and I don't remember having seen Diet coke ever since Coke Zero came to life lmao.
Also, Diet Coke has NEVER been called Diet here, mostly because it's forbidden to imply that a sweet drink would help for any kind of diet, but also because diet isn't much of a commonly known word. Basically everyone here can tell what "light" means, but using diet wouldn't be as appealing because not many people would get the message you're trying to convey, making the drink irrelevant and sales fail.
@@jafissherse8137 Same in Germany. That's why they changed the name to Coke Light in non English speaking countries.

Yes, we are from Europe but use a mix of both; remember the UK is the one that invented the imperial system. We use Celsius for temperature and a mix between imperial and metric for measurements.

Yeah, air conditioning isn't great for the environment and I bet the misconception (as a lot of southern european countries have them) comes from the UK; where even in summer you don't need air conditioning.
Mexican speak Spanish for the same reason why American speak English.
The reason that Miles et cetera are called Imperial measurements because they are the measurements used within the British Empire .
But as a matter of interest the mile was originally a Roman marching distance .
The metric system is actually Napoleonic .

Diet coke is called coke light in many countries because 'diet' version is looked down upon, light is just semi looked down upon. Zero was being advertised as 'for men' while light is for women. Nowadays there is a big push for all zero and light barely has any shelf space left. Soon it will be like 30% regular and 70% zero variants.
Mexico speaks spanish and not mexican for the same reason you speak english and not american.
Does American people does not have access to wikipedia ? or do they just like affirming stuff without verify if it's true ?
Answer is: yes
'first hit on google' and TLDR with that, along with the 'I'm *American*, I'm *always* right' attitude
Some day americans will discover that there is air conditioning in europe (obviously deodorant too), but as climate is not as extreme along the year as in USA it's mainly used in south Spain, Italy or Greece for example. When there is a warm day, it uses to be enough with crossed ventilation, good fresh drinks and a hundred of pounds less into your body... 😂😂😂😂, appart of streets with trees that help to reduce the global temperature. Not always the best opcion is expending more energy and polluting to the rest of the world...
From Wikipedia "Air conditioning dates back to prehistory. Ancient Egyptian buildings used a wide variety of passive air-conditioning techniques.[8] These became widespread from the Iberian Peninsula through North Africa, the Middle East, and Northern India." 😂😂😂
They speak Spanish in Mexico for the exact same reason they *don't* speak "American" in America.
I love freaking my American friends out by pointing out your currency is metric.
Worse than that, the modern imperial system is defined by metric standards.
We have Diet Coke, Coke Zero and lots besides in the UK, as I’m sure they do in the rest of Europe!
There are probably countries, but it didn't think it's that common. Germany has no Diet Coke for example.
The difference comes sinply from the fact, that there are a lot of countries where 'Diet' isn't exactly used as word for low calorien drinks in general, or the word Diet might not be as common as the word light/lite. So, it was rebranded for those countries so everybody knows what it means.
Coke light and diet coke is the same product though..@@RavenMethil
Yeah, I didn't said anything agaisnt it, maybe I didn't made that very clear.. I just explained, why it has the different names in different parts of the world.@@mats7492
I suppose we do, but I never buy the any Coke because I really don't like it. I drink herb tea or green tea without sugar. Sorry for disliking such a crucial element of American culture.
It's called Coke Light in all non English speaking countries in Europe. Because the term Diet suggests a product, that will make you lose weight, which is not true for this type of coke. So they changed the name / were forced to change the name. Many diet products are called light in the rest of Europe besides coke as well.
FFS, you may as well be on this list...
Your system is called the Imperial, after the British Empire that invented it.
It's similar to Spanish language in Mexico, at some point Mexico proclaimed itself for True New Spanish Empire and even planned to take over original Spain as soon as they win that small Texas dispute with the USA. Lost that one, never invaded Spain, but kept the language.
Summer in Scotland barely reaches the low 20C, what do we need air conditioning for?
Aye, we're more north than some parts of Canada. It is a misconception though from the UK I believe, southern Europe has Air Cons everywhere
A large portion of Europe DOES have aircon, the countries that it isnt common or popular in wont suddenly get it for a damn good reason. It's the colder countries.
Why would we buy an aircon just to only use it one week to a month out of the year?? Financially it's just not suitable for us
To heat in the winter, which is cheaper than heating by gas.
@@OurFamily- most homes have ways to heat them already. The only thing aircon would do that we dont have already would be to cool down our homes in that very small part of the year
Pizza existed berfore the U.S did.
1:10 in case you wondering for real, all ex colonies speak the language of the country that colonised that territory, especially in the Americas that wasnt populated as the rest of the world so they would bring people from different parts of the world from salves to workers and would teach them all one language so they all would be able to communicate with each other: France in Canada and French Guiana, UK in the 13 colonies, Portugal in Brazil and Spain in the rest of it basically. The reason Mexicans speak Spanish is the same as the one why US speaks English (even though its not even the official language) 😊
2:30 the stereotypes come from different anecdotes and cultural differences mainly with US Americans with the french and like any anecdotes it can become overly exaggerated or generalised which contribute to the formation of stereotypes, which is very wrong nonetheless. 😊 (also air conditioning isnt necessary as much since we tend to have milder summers, plus we have shutters, cross ventilation and thicker walls so we dont need to rely on air conditioning, also it takes a lot of electricity which isn’t sustainable plus its more expensive. Another reason might be that the buildings especially in Europe are planned very tight which dont allow for air conditioning and its not necessary since the urban planning already solves that issue. Personal preference, id rather open my windows at night to allow fresh air in and ventilate my room with an electrical fan during the day)
3:51 we have both Cola Light and Cola Zero… we dont use the term Diet Cola since it is incorrect to call it that way cause its not a “Diet” drink, but its basically the same thing.
6:35 in Europe people understand the term “right for education” better I guess 😂 or maybe USA capitalises on everything that their citizens have “the right to” instead of making it more affordable… like: “ yeah you have the right to do that, now lets see how well you can afford to exercise that right of yours” 😅
7:00 Pizza was invented in Naples, Italy and its not that fancy… the most preferred pizzas are the 2 original ones: Marinara (tomatoes, garlic, oregano and olive oil) and Margherita (tomato, mozzarella, basil and olive oil). The rest of the world takes a very artistic take to making it but people in Italy and most Europe like to stick to the basic. 😊

Coke Zero Cherry? No cherries in Coke anymore?

P.S. Diet coke is sold in Europe, but I believe it's named differently. I am not sure, i don't drink fizzy drinks at all.
Air cons use a group of gases called HFCs as coolant. As the warm air is dispelled from the unit, it also carries away a small amount of these gases. An efficient modern air con is expected to lose about 5% of its HFCs per year. HFCs in the atmosphere have a heating potential some 3,000 times that of a like amount of CO2. The more we use air cons the warmer the climate will become, leading to more air con sales and usage which will lead to a warmer climate - a vicious circle if ever there was one!
It is estimated that by 2100 HFCs released into the atmosphere by air conditioning units will have added a global average of 0.5°C of additional heat to the climate. That's 1/3rd of the IPCC target warming level on their own!!
I don't think I should tell Americans their gallon in smaller than the Imperial Gallon. The US gallon is equivalent to 3.785 litres. The imperial gallon is equivalent 4.546 litres. The miles used in the UK are the same length as the miles in the US.

Diet Coke is called 'Coke Light' here (Holland). We also have coke zero :) Don't know about vanilla.
I guess "Coke light" is the name in most of the EU for Diet Coke. Other flavors like Lemon, Vanilla, Cherry and even Cinnamon (all in "normal" with sugar and in "light" without sugar) are harder to get because a lot of supermarkets do not have them in stock.

Coke lemon can be used for mixing, vanilla and cherry I don't like and cinnamon tastes idiosyncratic. You can try it in winter, but it's absolutely not everyone's cup of tea.

'Please use miles, nobody actually knows the British measurements' You mean... Miles. The thing we still use? I mean, they certainly didn't know the British measurements.
The US uses US Customary measurements, based off the imperial system. Similar, but some of the measures are different. The imperial pint is larger than the USA pint.
That's because the imperial system is NOT imperial at all, even though the Brits think of it like that.
A lot of the measurements were used on the continent as well, with the problem being, that a foot in german, france and england NOT having the same size, just to name one example.

Diet Coke is sweetened with aspartame, while Coke Lite is sweetened with a combination of sodium cyclamate, acesulfame K, and aspartame. There is a slight difference in taste, and some people claim a difference in carbonation.
