Ah, yes, sea borders! Indeed, far too overlooked. Take a look at the Aegean. This is probably the most dangerous maritime dispute in the world. Turkey has threatened war if Greece extends its territorial waters to 12 nautical miles.
As a Greek, its important to tell you something. Turkish troops recently got a small piece of land in the Greco-Turkish border. It isnt said to the media so a war wont occured. But still, it is frightening to think

Your map around 6min is good, although some transcontinental countries (such as France) aree represented with different colors depending where their land is (like mainland France, French Guiana, French polinesia, etc.). So it's not a relevant comparison map, although accurate ;) Thankfully, you address that in the end of the video
Sea: *exist* China: Its free real estate Hahaha but srsly tho, China is bullying nearby nations like Vietnam, Taiwan, Indonesia, Malaysia and especially the Philippines for claiming the south China sea and not following the arbitrary
I see you are also one of those that are convinced China is "bullying" nearby nations. In fact, this is quite the contrary. China is simply trying to re-establish her sovereignty in the region that they claimed before anybody else (of course this is motivated by the need to secure national security by managing the crucial trade routes in the region). Since 1947, each subsequent Chinese government in power has claimed this region. Due to the legal principle of Terra Nullius, China considered the region as nobody's land and decided to claim the area and still does so to this day. Mind you this is after the Treaty of San Francisco which abolished Japanese rule in the region but did not indicate who was to own it. I could go on and on about this but I think the wikipedia article on the issue really tells you everything you need to know: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Territorial_disputes_in_the_South_China_Sea.

Interesting fact about the French EEZ is that it shows the international diplomatic influence of France. A number of the islands that give it EEZ (Clipperton island somewhat near Mexico and quite a few islands in the Southern Indian Ocean as well as near Madagascar) actually shouldn't : they don't have a permanent population, and normally the Montego Bay convention regulating maritime borders and stuff (which France did sign) says that islands that don't have permanent population give you territorial waters, but not EEZ. So France's EEZ should be smaller than it is, but because of their international influence they managed to get all of that extra EEZ nonetheless.
@@jandron94 yes but my point is that France *did* sign the Montego bay convention (contrary to the US), but nevertheless has extra EEZ that it shouldn't have according to the convention
@@dragskcinnay3184 Well so far much (if not all) of that French "non populated" EEZ are protected natural reserves. That is France is not exploiting any of its ressources. Has the country you live in any unpopulated EEZ?
@@jandron94 from what I read, most of the islands I was talking about are indeed part of a natural reserve, but there's a fair bit of fishing going on in these waters, so the EEZ is still a bit of an advantage because France can regulate fishing as it wishes in it. To answer your question, I am French, I learned what I said about the uninhabited islands' EEZ in class a few years ago
@@dragskcinnay3184 it's funny because from your profile name and your initial "critical" comment no one could guess that you are French, far from it. But only maybe a Frenchman could be so well informed on the French EEZ anyway. My feeling is that in the EU many countries like Germany are kind of concerned with our oversea territories potential, and especially our immense EEZ (360x bigger than the german one : 11.6 vs 0.032 million km2 !). So far we have not done much with it... but who knows in the futur. In 30 years the population of the oversea territories will probably approximate 8% of the total French population, 50 years ago it was 2%. I think there is a potential if futur French governments have an ambitious and well-fitting plan for those territories and the EEZ. Let's not give them away to the Chinese (illegal or legal fishing) and non-French international corporations appetite (in mining, tourism, fishing industries, etc.).

A nautical mile is originally the lenght of 1 arc minute on a great circle. And as the earth isn't a perfect sphere, that great circle is the equator. Later it was defined by exactly 1852 m. So, twelve miles are exactly 22.224 km, 200 miles are exactly 370.4 km.
Some really interesting information on sea borders and territories. However, at 6:27 the area marked as the Andaman Islands should be shown in he same colour as India because all the sea territories around the Andaman Islands are in India's exclusive economic zone as the Andaman Islands are part of India.
I remember there was a dispute (that was solved in a civilized way) between France and Canada, because when France lost the reset of N. America to the Brits in the 1760s, they kept two small islands off the coast of Newfoundland, St Pierre & Miquelon, which meant they were trying to have a claim to a big part of what used to be one of the best fishing grounds in the world.
"making France the king of the ocean" Sad British noises Then remember that the head of state of Australia, NZ and Canada plus others is the Queen. Happy British noises
But uk cant takes advantage of the country above economy zone end has no controls over them so yeah i doesn't matter This commonwealth is just a symbol nothing more
International waters has 2 meanings: A: waters that can be claimed by no one. B: waters that are claimed and shared by 2 or more countries but exclude all others. Example: the great lakes, shared by Canada and USA only.
The sea around Island of Trindade, at Atlantic, was coloured as brown, but it is Brazilian territory, therefore should be coloured as green. Aldo id lacking the islets of São Pedro and São Paulo, which added another 200 mile radius spot at Atlantic to Brazil
The waters of the UK Channel Islands don't seem to follow the same rules. Why has France got so much of the sea around them? Shouldn't there be a midway line between the UK/CI and France?
AFAIK The general rules are overwritten by local treaties between the concerned countries whenever they exist. The waters between UK and France are determined by treaties instead, so the general definition of EEZ from the UNCLOS do not apply over there.
Canada's EEZ almost reaches the Titanic all thanks to Newfoundland as the EEZ stops very closely to where the Titanic sank, now the real question arises whether the Newfoundland Seamounts are part of Canada's EEZ or not because if so the Titanic will be encompassed in the EEZ of Canada.
One thing I think you overlooked was how those borders are implemented between neighboring countries. For example, the US-Mexico border in the Gulf of Mexico, or the US and Bahamas.
La zona alrededor de las Islas Malvinas, Georgia del Sur y Sandwich del Sur son reclamadas por Argentina, no deberías haberlas puesto en azul (por Gran Bretaña) sinó como disputada!
No, no son zonas "disputadas". En los hechos esas islas tienen dueño y se llama Gran Bretaña. Dile a un argentino, o a cualquier otro extranjero, que vaya a las Falkland Islans sin ningún permiso, para que veas si están o no "disputadas". Argentina no tiene ningún tipo de control sobre esas islas; ni siquiera un privilegio de tránsito, nada; sencillamente no son dueños. Fíjate en esto: ni siquiera el reclamo (entre comillas) de Argentina sobre Falkland Islands está en sede judicial de ONU (donde realmente se dirimen las cuestiones territoriales y limítrofes entre países) sino que en sede política. La disputa de los argentinos es política; y usada muchas veces con fines electorales.

International waters has 2 meanings: A: waters that can be claimed by no one. B: waters that are claimed and shared by 2 or more countries but exclude all others. Example: the great lakes, shared by Canada and USA only.
you are wrong about the maritime territory of Brazil, Trindade Island is not British, it belongs to Brazil
The sea around Island of Trindade, at Atlantic, was coloured as brown, but it is Brazilian territory, therefore should be coloured as green. Aldo id lacking the islets of São Pedro and São Paulo, which added another 200 mile radius spot at Atlantic to Brazil
France&UK:wow i have loads of water
Africa:save us daddy

4:07 Why is Switzerland not classified as a landlocked state?
Chad General Knowledge recognizing Taiwan
Any problem with that?
The waters of the UK Channel Islands don't seem to follow the same rules. Why has France got so much of the sea around them? Shouldn't there be a midway line between the UK/CI and France?
AFAIK The general rules are overwritten by local treaties between the concerned countries whenever they exist.
The waters between UK and France are determined by treaties instead, so the general definition of EEZ from the UNCLOS do not apply over there.

@KTS Raptide YT Too bad he's a mod
I may think about it
Canada's EEZ almost reaches the Titanic all thanks to Newfoundland as the EEZ stops very closely to where the Titanic sank, now the real question arises whether the Newfoundland Seamounts are part of Canada's EEZ or not because if so the Titanic will be encompassed in the EEZ of Canada.
Oh boy. This gonna get controversial

One thing I think you overlooked was how those borders are implemented between neighboring countries. For example, the US-Mexico border in the Gulf of Mexico, or the US and Bahamas.
La zona alrededor de las Islas Malvinas, Georgia del Sur y Sandwich del Sur son reclamadas por Argentina, no deberías haberlas puesto en azul (por Gran Bretaña) sinó como disputada!
exacto, razón de más para darle por primera vez un dislike a un video del canal.
Rubbish
No, no son zonas "disputadas". En los hechos esas islas tienen dueño y se llama Gran Bretaña. Dile a un argentino, o a cualquier otro extranjero, que vaya a las Falkland Islans sin ningún permiso, para que veas si están o no "disputadas". Argentina no tiene ningún tipo de control sobre esas islas; ni siquiera un privilegio de tránsito, nada; sencillamente no son dueños.
Fíjate en esto: ni siquiera el reclamo (entre comillas) de Argentina sobre Falkland Islands está en sede judicial de ONU (donde realmente se dirimen las cuestiones territoriales y limítrofes entre países) sino que en sede política. La disputa de los argentinos es política; y usada muchas veces con fines electorales.
Also Easter Island is in union with Chile, not an actual part
A lot of invalid claims slicing up Antarctica. Meanwhile, the USA (which makes no such claims) has a station on the actual south pole.
Most of those "invalid" claims have lots of bases
