I think you should do Kosovo, because you have already been to Serbia. So if you have a Serbian perspective it’s 49 countries, and 50 with a Kosovan perspective. Where as if you do Israel or Palestine, with either perspective it’s 50 countries it’s just argued which one you went to
Kosovo is not a nation it is part of Serbia has always been a part of Serbia, and it's only US supported Terrorists that uphold the Albanian terrorists. Clean up Europe, get rid of the Muslim Invaders.
That's what I was thinking too and to have the number of how many he's been to be in dispute not just which ones, seems to align better with what he was asking for
The United Nations recognizes Palestine as an observer, but not Kosovo. Therefore, Palestine has the ‘spiceness’ of being a country and Kosovo does not.
India is NOT changing its name. The constitution of India reads as “India that is Bharat”. Officially both are names for India, where India was used in communication in English and Bharat was used for official communications in Hindi. The present Govt just started using Bharat in English too.
Moroccan here. From what I've heard from friends and family who were significantly affected from the earthquake, many roads are blocked due to the amount of aid that's coming in. This has led many people to die due to ambulances having a hard time to get to villages that need them. It's easy to imagine, roads to tiny villages aren't made for that much traffic. The big issue that has probably led to a lot of deaths is the distribution of aid, not the amount of it. Many isolated villages have had little to no aid, while others have received too much aid. This is due to roads not being a thing in some places. This is just speculation, so i could be completely wrong, but this could also be part of the decision to refuse some aid.
I would call a huge bluff of that. Did you actually seen that huge traffic that block whole roads anywhere? The "aid" is not only goods to begin with, it could be rescue helicopter at the same time. It more often actually incudes trained specialists with whole equipment, then some food in crates. Especially in stuff like earthquake, where any trained rescue group with equipment is worth a lot of more then just dozen of random people with shovels. Most reason for turning down a help is just that country itself is not able to directly menage aid or directly control all third parties but had a huge need(usually political) to do so.
The act of not caring for the channel has extended its reaches to the green screen! Great commentary and research, especially for the reasoning behind Morocco refusing aid
Search & rescue and disaster operations are much more complicated a science that most people imagine. It takes exceptional logistics specialists and well trained emergency response management to be effective to a specific event like this. Every disaster is different and no two require the same responses. I rather trust the Moroccan government to have assessed their needs thus far accurately and judging by international media coverage from today and yesterday, the Royal Armed Forces and Gendarmerie have reached most villages, now dotted with bright emergency shelter tents visible from drones overhead, with most major through roads cleared for heavy equipment to move in. The Moroccan military has been well funded for decades and Morocco is generally considered a stable, semi-prosperous country - or at least middle income and thus, far better than most of its African brethren. Al Jazeera did a rather good piece last night on the chief of a Casablanca military hospital, trudging the mountain paths with his subordinates, carrying a massive med pack as they try to reach villages where choppers can't safely disembark medical personnel. If we are to trust the opinion of Moroccan experts more than our own, places like Libya, and maybe Benin by tomorrow afternoon as they expect record rainfall in West Africa tonight, need far more international aid than Morocco does.
I think Kosovo is the better pick if you want to do the 'did i go to country 50?' bit. At least from the two options you presented, I think going to Taiwan would be a better pick as you've already bern to China.
A lot of paranoid countries do things like this. After the Indonesian tsunami more than a decade ago they didn't want aid from America because they thought strings would be attached.
and often there is strings to be attached, some countrys just learn that too late. And thouse strings might be more harmfull than some suffering people. And there is always geopolitics in play with international aid.

Might have to do with Western Sahara and who does and does not see it as occupied territory. Earthquakes are never only about who dies or get burried, that is only the first concern. On a medium term a lot of it is feeding the survivors and ensuring clean drinking water and treatment for the vounded. It also is about rebuilding houses and infrastructure in the long run.
@@YameenRahmanThis is a procedure done by the Indian government specifically because they do not allow foreign citizens to have dual Indian citizenship, which Bangladesh does not forbid. In order for a foreign-born person of Indian origin to reclaim their Indian citizenship, they must relinquish any other citizenships they may have, which is why people in this situation typically get an OCI card. Bangladesh allows the holding of multiple passports and does not have this issue.
@@YameenRahman Yes. If they wanted to obtain Indian citizenship, they would be asked to renounce their Irish citizenship. However, they are still eligible for an OCI card, which grants them near identical rights to a passport holder. The minor restrictions include voting, the occupation of positions in government, the possession of a passport and the ownership of agricultural land, but other than that, OCI card holders are essentially treated the same as other citizens of India.
It's pronounced "tea-shock", more or less. And, I have to say, I thought he was spot-on with his comments. The way that demographics are moving, a successful border poll looks inevitable by 2040 or so. But Ulster unionists won't suddenly disappear when that happens, future Irish governments will have to make sure they don't become second-class citizens. And I thought the Confederacy analogy was well-chosen, because the most fanatical Irish nationalists are also the sort of people who would be most horrified by the comparison - it's the sort of message that might shake them out of their false belief that this extremist anti-British sentiment is harmless.
I have been to Israel about 25 years ago, it was very "controversial" back then as well (I think in a way it has always been controversial), It is a beautiful country with lovely people. Never confuse the population with their politicians. We all know Politicians will build their platform on peace and prosperity just to flip as soon as they are in power. This has been the case in Israel, Kosovo, America, etc etc. I have not been to Kosovo so can't speak for the people there but I am sure they are kind and lovely in general as well. But Israel, very much worth a visit.

So while the VOC(east india company) thought they would kick out the Brits & establish Dutch colonial rule, as time past it became clear that the Sri Lankans wanted self rule & the Dutch only got some harbour for trade purposes.

Varadkar’s comments were indeed really thoughtful and poignant. As an English person, I absolutely support Irish reunification as it’s literally one country on one island. Stuff like Scottish independence is a bit more of a difficult conundrum for me. Also, PLEASE visit Israel. And if you have the money (its EXTREMELY expensive there) please stay for a good amount of time, like 2 weeks. You wont understand anything if you’re there for only a week or so; the culture and cultures go so so deep and its quite literally a microcosm of the entire earth in one place. It’s absolutely extraordinary. As someone who has been there close to 10 times now, each time for a few weeks, I still struggle to understand and comprehend its real. Everything there feels like more and more of a fever dream the more you think you understand it and are getting to the bottom of it. I took a class at uni about Jewish music, relating to the Jewish diaspora who now live in Israel, and its fair to say that every single week most of the students, especially the non-Jews, got more and more lost when being taught about the ridiculously complex and layered lineages of some of the communities who now live in Israel. Its a place I think about almost every single day. Also, I think its funny/ironic how you talked about a so-called ‘hope’ that countries could re-unify or come together to form a homeland, because the national anthem of Israel is ‘Hatikvah’ which means ‘The Hope’.
With northern Ireland the problem is from the past, during the Catholic-protestant split, England (who was ruling Ireland at the time) became protestant while the Irish stayed Catholic. The British king was scared he'd lose power in Ireland and so sent lot's of protestant English to the island. Most of them moved to the north and so when Ireland got independence, northern Ireland decided to stay as they were English. Even now, many don't consider themselves Irish but as a separate people group
Im an indian, and trust me im embarrassed that that guy and his party is still ruling our beautiful country even now. And they are creating this name change drama now because of the 2024 elections and want to get even more vote percentage than before specially of those extremely nationalist hindu people here.

I'm not opposed to name changes, if they (i.e. population) want it it's their right. But it's just so damn stupid when it's just beating into nationalistic drum by politicians for clout, to gain support and show how amazingly patriotic and anti-western they are, and everyone's just inconvinienced by it If they were really patriotic they would expand civil rights and liberties and improve standard of living but good luck seeing this in Turkiye, India and Myanmar Also about anti-colonization sentiment: all those countries gained independence 50-70 years ago, just own up to the fact you allowed politicians who can't govern a barn to be in charge for so long
I’m in Canada and the link took me to maps on the American website and I didn’t see anything about it being affiliated with you. Also I think you should go to Israel
I wouldn't go to "Israel" same as I wouldn't work in South Africa back in the day, during apartheid, my uncle did and got chucked out (fraternising/unwelcome alien)... I don't know why Morocco rejected "help". Plenty of examples of ex-colonial powers/charities/ngos and China raping countries/taking advantage and yes I include UN in this.
I feel like most people agree Isreal is a country. Some governments don't recognize them for political reasons, but they still onow isreal is really a country. The question is whether or not ppaestine is, and you probably can't get to palestine without going through isreal first. If you could though, that would be the best, because then have you gone to 0, 1, or 2 countries?
Go to Israel but dont tell the checkpoint guy you are there to visit palestine. They will see you visited Indonesia and morroco and probably ask about it,They will give you a paper ticket instead of a stamp so you can visit muslim countries without a problem after you leave.
india used to be that big the UK separated those regions and made new countries based on race and religion to make it impossible for those people to live in peace , they did that everywhere not just in india , while canada and australia were colonies not a part of an ancient nation
It may depend on the situation. On the other hand Japan got flak for initially refusing international help when JA123 crashed & when an earthquake struck its Noto peninsula
I am extremely so shocked to hear this from Morocco but the government need to change their mindset for an aid during a natural disaster where when the respective countries wanted to help,please allow them to do so!!!🙏🏻
Morocco is more than capable of handling this disaster on it's own, it's not a dysfunctional state. Does the USA accept aid fron china when hurricanes hit? I don't think so, the political cost would be too steep.
why would we accept aid, from the same country that brutally colonised us and never repaid for what they've done, and still doing neocolonialisation, ever since we slowly removed french from our education, french government became saltier and saltier.
You should go to the Luhansk people’s republic. That would definitely add up the spice… and potentially get you demonetised, but it would be a big one, so yeah…

(some of) India calls itself Bharat, France doesn't call itself Gual, that's a big diffrence
Why Israel to Jerusalem? It's like calling the UK - London.
And Spain to Iberia?
Spain to España please 🙏
the first one seems more than unlikely since Gaul in French also means "boner" oof!
For a second I thought toycat was drinking out of a canola oil bottle 💀
I'm so distracted by the edge of your green screen
"After India changed its name to 'Bharat,' Nepal is considering changing its name to 'I'm With Stupid.' "
As a citizen of nepal "NO we arent"
India is called Bharat as well. Just like germany is called as Deutschland. Don't comment here with ur half baked knowledge 😂😂
They also turned down Dutch aid I am unsure if they have accepted it by now
Maybe the conditions for the "help" isn't beneficial top Marocco in the long term.
I was thinking that, it may cause dept to Morocco that it doesn't want or some other catch
@Dacian_mapping Desaster Relief is usually free of and catch...I think the reason is optics. The government believes it would not be "a good look" to accept help from those countries. They may look weak, etc....
@@tzarcoal1018 that just makes it better, accept the aid and destroy Algeria as now Algeria thinks Morocco is weak and won't expect anything, got to love warfare and it's tactics
I'm not opposed to name changes, if they (i.e. population) want it it's their right.
But it's just so damn stupid when it's just beating into nationalistic drum by politicians for clout, to gain support and show how amazingly patriotic and anti-western they are, and everyone's just inconvinienced by it
If they were really patriotic they would expand civil rights and liberties and improve standard of living but good luck seeing this in Turkiye, India and Myanmar
Also about anti-colonization sentiment: all those countries gained independence 50-70 years ago, just own up to the fact you allowed politicians who can't govern a barn to be in charge for so long
wrong its not due to nationalism, we literally accepted aid from spain and israel of all people.
Huge plus of visiting Israel is ease of communication - most everybody here speaks at least some degree of English.
toycat is my comfort youtuber
I’m in Canada and the link took me to maps on the American website and I didn’t see anything about it being affiliated with you. Also I think you should go to Israel
Northern cyprus is spicy too. Think about that one.
Or Kosovo.
Having checked, the link does not correctly redirect to Amazon Australia for me, just links to the American page with Australia delivery information
Thank you, will see if I can do anything about that
@@ibx2cat Same thing for Canada, American page, Canadian delivery information.
I'm going to rest in topor, wake me in 2100
Didn't Portugal also get denied?
I wouldn't go to "Israel" same as I wouldn't work in South Africa back in the day, during apartheid, my uncle did and got chucked out (fraternising/unwelcome alien)... I don't know why Morocco rejected "help". Plenty of examples of ex-colonial powers/charities/ngos and China raping countries/taking advantage and yes I include UN in this.
I think that going to Greenland would be *the* controversial decision, because... well, "why would you even"?
China took the "Good PR" to a whole new lvl 😂
after your 50th visit an oceanic island like fiji
Living in The Netherlands, the link works indeed
Now i get the negative coverage of the earthquake from european countries
id say that going to kosovo would be MUCH more controversial
Don't know about other countries, but there's no mention of Morocco rejecting Polish aid either in english or polish media.
I saw on X one of the rescue teams from Poland reported they work in Morocco.
please crop your webcam on the left :)
WHAT DID YOU JUST CALL ME AT THE END THERE???
Seeing Greece give help to Turkey, made me realise just how horrible of a person I am.
the ending got me 😳💀
I feel like most people agree Isreal is a country. Some governments don't recognize them for political reasons, but they still onow isreal is really a country. The question is whether or not ppaestine is, and you probably can't get to palestine without going through isreal first. If you could though, that would be the best, because then have you gone to 0, 1, or 2 countries?
I still don't know what your first channel is.
Go to Israel but dont tell the checkpoint guy you are there to visit palestine. They will see you visited Indonesia and morroco and probably ask about it,They will give you a paper ticket instead of a stamp so you can visit muslim countries without a problem after you leave.
india used to be that big the UK separated those regions and made new countries based on race and religion to make it impossible for those people to live in peace , they did that everywhere not just in india , while canada and australia were colonies not a part of an ancient nation
Your Amazon link does not work for France (yes you surprisingly have French viewers like myself)
I’m with Morocco on this one. Not everyone should and will be allowed to help
It may depend on the situation. On the other hand Japan got flak for initially refusing international help when JA123 crashed & when an earthquake struck its Noto peninsula
I am extremely so shocked to hear this from Morocco but the government need to change their mindset for an aid during a natural disaster where when the respective countries wanted to help,please allow them to do so!!!🙏🏻
Religion holds people back
@@ArtieArchives What is that to do with the religion,good friend?
Morocco is more than capable of handling this disaster on it's own, it's not a dysfunctional state.
Does the USA accept aid fron china when hurricanes hit? I don't think so, the political cost would be too steep.
why would we accept aid, from the same country that brutally colonised us and never repaid for what they've done, and still doing neocolonialisation, ever since we slowly removed french from our education, french government became saltier and saltier.
@@someguy4512Poland colonized you?
Bharat is an interesting name, how would other languages pronounce it and what do you call its people?
It's pronounced "tea shock" and means chieftain fyi
You should go to the Luhansk people’s republic. That would definitely add up the spice… and potentially get you demonetised, but it would be a big one, so yeah…
Going to a war zone held by a hostile government probably isn't the greatest idea ever
I from Portugal and the link works for me
their loss
the link directed to the US website but not to the French one (I’m in France)
Didnt work the link
You should go to northern cyprus as your 50th controversial country
In Belgium, link worked
The amazon link redirects correctly, i am living in Germany.
13:48 Go to Romania (Transylvania) mate
Yes the link redirects
Czech help was also refused.
Morocco is doing the right thing, if you don't need money, from corrupt European Nations, trying to fish favors, then you just refuse it.
if you wanna be controvercial go to transnistria ore nordern cyprus
Toycat i acc beg u get rid of that annoying green screen line in the middle 😂 otherwise great video. I reckon u should go to Israel as I've seen loads of video in kosvo, but not many of Israel apart from documentaries about Israel Cheers.
tea-shock!!
He's still salty about losing to france in 2022
Imagine having such a bias that you reject help from countries actually trying to help you
or they try to get leverage or favor, maybe some votes on UN or support to set blind Eye. Example. Is France is at mali aquiring Uranium there and maybe leverage is Marroco acceptance of France actions there. There is many reasons in international arena.
@@asjaosaline5987Name one thing Poland would want out of Morrocco.
Go ahead.
@@jacplac97
Everyone is ignoring Poland until the Winged Hussars arrive
and a lot of those wonderful people snuck their way in France/EU :) wonderful
I am from Israel and the link indeed work.
If they do not accept help from other countries and then as us, it should be a resounding NO
the link directed me. does that mean ot worked? in singapore btw
You should go to Northern Cyprus. That's the spiciest one. You would offend every EU country 😂
You shall visit DR Congo next
