"However Australia has bigger problems, it is connected to Indonesia" DAMN
As an Indonesian, I can confirm.
Poor Indonesia
Australia merged to Indonesia and PNG.
Australian: 😩😩😭😭🙏🏻🙏🏻
Indonesian (Esp. West Papuan) and PNG: 🤑🤑🥳🥳😈😈
Indon third world country 🤢🤢
Hell nah 💀
Can you imagine how many wars this would start?
Mongol Empire can finally take over Japan
All of them.

"The Falkland Islands are now connected to Argentina" .... me: oh boy... here we go again
Dust off the Enfield and I'll get the popcorn as a observer
And they’d still get their arses handed to them lol.
Right where they belong
@@andrewleah1983 Yeah, kind of crazy a third world nation lost to a first world nation.
@@daebi37 a first world nation single warship, the Argentinian army surrender after the first ship crossed the atlantic sea, they only fought whit the stationed coast guard
"Taiwan is now connected to China"
Taiwan: Oh hell naw!
What will China do now with the strait of Malacca completely closed? Import oil from Russia? What will Russia do with literally 0 coastline connecting the Atlantic? Gulf countries will either succumb to Saudi Arabia or Iran or destroy each other.
Another question is since all land is now connected, can we call this a supercontinent? If yes, then given that the land massss are already connected under the ocean, does a supercontinent already exist?
The Chinese Government before the Communist Government took Taiwan over as the Chinese Government in Exile, so yup, they would be freaking at a land connection forming.
💀 They have truly rejoined the motherland, literally.Plus, being Singaporean, we would suddenly become landlocked and our ports will become useless and our economy will fall severely lol “0v0

You Forgot to mention that the arctic ocean is now a salty sea/lake
It's not a lake. Lakes cannot have oceanic crust in them. They have to have formed on land.
It would be an inland sea, not a lake.
@@AtarahDerek then the caspian would be a sea after all.
@@greatpyramid4348 Wikipedia.
@@greatpyramid4348 Correction, it admits that it's a lake-sea hybrid. It's a lake in the north and a sea in the south.
mount Everest is now 9878 meters
And Mauna Kea would still be taller.
Highest mountain and deepest sea level would be about the same
@@thenorseguy2495 yes but Everest would technically grow from 8878 meters to 9878 meters above sea level

@@groom_of_the_stool Mt. Lam Lam is still the champ
This is hard to explain in english, but as a chilean, we have a terrible "problemo":
Our coast is 6430 km lenght (4000 miles), and right in front of all of our coast, from north to south, it is located the Peru-Chile Trench, that delineates the boundary between the Nazca Plate and the South American Plate. This trench is the responsible for all the earthquakes that we have in Chile, and is very deep (at 8000 meters under the water, 4.9 miles), and located only at 160km or 100 miles from the coast, under the water.
So, if the sea level drops by 1000 meters, all of our coast cities will be located in front of an unbelievable huge fall, very inclined, similar to a cliff. It's like if those cities where built in the middle of a very high mountain. The water will be very far away, and it will be very hard to find some land to build in those places.
This would be a huge problem all over the world, most of these changes are from the first 200m of sea level drop
Also, because of the water level dropping, the pressure it exerted on the ocean floor is gone, so, guess what 😅, *MORE EARTHQUAKES!!??*
hmm you know that a drop of 8000 metres over a distance of 160 km is actually nothing like a cliff at all? It's a ratio of 1 in 20 which is a really gentle slope. I know it's not uniform and there would be steeper bits but those would tend to be near the bottom of the trench, not in the first 1000 metres.
For Perú, ecuador and Colombia it would also be basically a fall
No need to mention miles! We are not dumb we know what km are!
In this map, the lake in between the borders between Canada and Greenland would become the deepest and largest lake on Earth. It would get up to 7000 ft deep.
Also, many shores would now be way difference, since instead of you being able to walk around the shore and it only gradually getting deep, it would instantly drop thousands of feet
Wouldn't that also result in massive cliffs for where the land reaches the sea? Up to 1000m is quite the drop.
@@aidankeys8534 Most likely, yep
It looks like he just dropped the water level just past the continental slope. Sure, it'd give us more land, but it'd wreck havoc on the environment and ocean currents. Not to mention oceanic trade would be severely impacted.
And where'd all that water go?! Did it evaporate? If so then that would drop lake water levels as well. If it got locked up in ice all that land mass in Canada and Russia would be covered in glaciers and would add to the water level of the upper Northern Hemisphere lakes like the Great Lakes, the Hudson Bay, and Caspian Sea (depending on the southern extent of the ice sheet).
That gradual deepening of the water you talked about is also where a lot of marine organisms live. And the continental slope is where a lot of sedimentation occurs and upwelling of nutrients in the winter months happen, 1000m (~3281ft) below sea level.
Yes, the new sea level, being below the edges of the continental shelves worldwide, means the end of flat beaches in most areas, the level is part way down the cliffs that already exist, but the lower 80% of the cliffs would remain submerged. An effect on sea trade would be the elimination of large flats and shallows, and the need for constant dredging. Large ships could berth directly at the cliffs with new terminals. But most saltwater marshes would disappear.
@@mike954 for the matter of the map the water magically disappeared, I assume

It’s funny thinking of Denmark and Netherlands- two countries so associated with the sea- to be landlocked.
Netherlands would already be landlocked if sea levels would only decrease by 50-100m and the baltic sea would already be a lake by then. Denmark/Sweden would only have a very small strip of ocean access near Skagerrak, not even reaching to the Gothenburg area.
Technically not because we still have some Carribbean islands
What would Denmark do with All those big bridges?
Put Them in Storage, until the sealevell increase again 😂😂😂😂

@@markvoelker6620 Bless your innocent soul. You have much to learn, warlock. In due time, in due time...
Most of this new land would end up as scorching dry desert or freezing cold wastelands. Also the regions furthest from the sea would have even greater seasonal variations than they already have.
The Med in this video has become an inland sea/lake and would eventually evaporate. The Sahara would move north and most of southern europe would become desert. This was modeled previously when those insane plans from the early 20th century came up that suggested that they close the Suez canal and dam the Med at Gibraltar.
Over time the land that was under the sea would develop plants… forests or what ever climate the land would be…. In its location
@@jshsvsjejed6960 Yes. But overall I reckon most land would be useless. Think of a Sahara connecting with both Europe (the Meditarrenean sea now turning into a slowly evaporating lake), the Red Sea (also a now a slowly evaporating lake) and the whole desert region jutting into Iran. The likes of the Maldives and the Azores gaining a bit of land would be nothing compared to the absolute tragedy for the rest of the world.
I have seen that sea levels were only around 120m lower during the last ice age and that resulted in around 1/3 the landmass being glacier. We are looking at around 8x lower sea level here, so that much more water going into glaciers. Would we see the supposedly former "green Sahara" become icy?
Baltic Sea disappeared. So Russia has access to the oceans only from the underdeveloped eastern coast. I am guessing Black sea also becomes a lake which is another access point.
So Suez Canal unless somebody digs a longer one. I wonder if Panama also became too fat to make a canal prohibitively expensive.
People don’t need a boat to escape from Cuba to Florida. Similarly Europe will be more accessible for African immigrants. Greece and Turkey become really close neighbors 😬
China and Taiwan become one again 💀
I was going to say that they could dredge the Panama canal and maybe the Suez, but then I realized that your locks would have to raise the ships an additional 1000 m which would seem to make both canals unusable for that reason alone.
And Hitler and Nepolian must have invaded UK
You would have to create another canal in djibouti or yemen to get to the Indian Ocean@@shannonkohl68
This is detrimental for China. No more Yangtze, Pearl or Yellow rivers. and if they do still exist they start in foreign countries
Would be so cool to take a drive from Canada to Europe. The only big problem would be the lack of bays and capes for fishing
I'm wondering what driving through the mountains of Greenland would be like,
especially as the low sea levels imply an ice age with a huge ice sheet
across North America and a much bigger ice sheet in Greenland
as compared to the ice sheet there today.
A few things:
1 - Some parts of seas would become cut off from the oceans
and with no outlets which means that eventually they
might become very salty and have higher concentrations of contaminants.
2 - This would cause huge problems for marine life used to today's geography
as migratory species would in some cases be cut off by land barriers
and obviously a lot of shorelines would move significant distances.
3 - For this to occur the water has to go somewhere and that presumably
would be into massive ice sheets covering much of North America,
Europe and Asia.
Those incredibly heavy ice sheets tend to push down the middle of continents
while in places the coastlines just outside the ice sheets might rise
the same way that when you sit on a mattress the part you sit on goes down
while the mattress around you actually rises up.
Apparently in North America the middle of the continent is still slowly
rising recovering from being pushed down in the last ice age
while some areas around the coasts such as Washington DC
which rose during the last ice age are still today sinking in recovery -
that's a problem in an era when due to climate change
sea levels are rising and heavier storms upriver could mean
higher storm surges in the river flowing through Washington.
4 - Such a change in ocean levels would almost certainly play havoc
with ocean currents such as the gulf stream which currently
keeps Europe far warmer than its latitude would imply .....
though that may not matter much as the much lower sea levels
indicates that Europe would already be covered by an ice sheet
as the most likely place for all that sea water to go is into ice sheets.
5 - If sea levels are 1,000 metres lower in a sense that means that every
place on land is effectively 1,000 metres higher altitude above sea level.
If that means that atmospheric pressure becomes lower at
every place on land on Earth does that mean that people
start finding themselves more out of breath where they live
and does that mean that it becomes impossible for anyone
to climb to the top of Mount Everest or K2 and survive?
Could even a modern mountain climber with full modern equipment
have climbed those mountains during the last ice age when
sea levels were much lower?
6 - Surely this will play havoc with weather patterns and river flows.
7 - If this magically happened overnight it would really mess up
business for ports, costal tourist resorts, fishing communities, etc
that would find themselves far from water with all their
water related infrastructure far up above sea levels.
A lot of ships would suddenly be stranded, aground far from the sea.
In terms of sudden changes like that the 1968 Canadian film
The Rise and Fall of the Great Lakes with canoeist Bill Mason
is amusing, somewhat informative and available online.
“The Falklands has connected to Argentina.”
The British: 👀…🤨…😡
Don’t worry we’d just reclaim the Republic of Ireland instead as they would be obscuring our access to the Atlantic Ocean.
Don’t worry we’d just re-annex the Republic of Ireland instead, as they would be blocking our access to the Atlantic from the west.
Indeed they are already inside Argentinian platform, they always belonged to us.
If sea levels drop 1000m you can have them. World War 3 will have broken out in a global land grab, we'll be too busy at home.

People acting like a thousand meters isn’t a significant drop. Bro there’s mountains which are a thousand meters 😂
1000 meter sea level rise is over for me. I’m only 300 meters😶
Jakarta be like : Pheeeww😮💨
One of the problems with simulations is with interior seas currently connected to world sea level. Programs frequently fail to take into account the depth of the straits that tie them to the ocean. Once sea level falls below the bottom of the strait, that connection dries up, and the interior sea levels off (and becomes a fresh water lake). For the Black Sea to be cut off, world sea level needs to drop 110m. The Strait of Gibraltar is 950m deep, so at 1000m the Mediterranean would be cut off.
Would it become fresh water lake? Where would the salt water left in the new lake go? Also, wouldn't salinity levels, in those lakes and the oceans, increase?
@@MrKanilammit Runoff from heavy rains would cause water to exit via the cutoff strait, like a river, taking salt with it.
zealandia would be so much bigger than you've shown so would be the most unrecognisable for sure
Yeah but you would have to drop sea levels like 3km
Zealand is a much larger landmass, sea-level need to drop few more 100 metres to fully expose it's true size
as a canadian, this is quite fascinating
As a Canadian, I enjoy looking for New Zealand on maps (there are a few maps that forget to include it)
Right! And it looks like kids won’t have to struggle to colour in Nunavut anymore 😂
Sea levels were supposedly only 120m lower during last ice age when Canada was pretty much under a glacier. Now we are talking around 7-8x lower sea levels and that much more water going to glacial formation?
@@MrKanilammit I found a layer of seashells in a gravel pit some 300 feet above sea level. There’s been a lot of change over time.
Don't get any ideas😆
The most fascinating thing is that these super unknown, super southern islands like the Sandwich or whatever islands, would now become inhabitable and there would probably be a significant amount of settlements with lucrative mining and fishing opportunities. It would be really cool to have an Antarctic subpolar region like we do in the north - not as cold as the full-blown polar but still pretty cold, yet inhabitable.
Team Magma be like
06:50 Well, as a Faroese, I would definitely also claim those two large islands to the SW of us, which are in this map coloured with the UK colours. It's only fair. ;)
07:20 Oh, there is a serious error here. It looks like whoever made this map completely forgot about Jan Mayen which is a Norwegian and not a Greenlandic island. So most of those islands E of Greenland and N of Iceland would be Norwegian.
Finally someone with Sea level decrease.
I'm sick watching those sea level increases vids .
Really appreciate ❤️🇧🇩
What's so repulsive about if sea levels rised but if they decreased is okay?
Are you overreacting?
Thats whats happen if there is an another ice age but in a massive way with if sea level will drop
7:13 Unintentionally, you've solved the major issue between Greece and Turkey regarding how much of Aegean sea belongs to each country. Thank you so much!
I can imagine New York in this world being similar to how it was in the movie "The Fifth Element" where the Hudson and East Rivers are completely gone and Manhattan becoming a mountain.
Tbf, a lot of central land masses will likely become deserts due to being even further from humidity from oceans and lack of water...
Another problem could be the existing ports would be too shallow or useless, new ones to be built. 👍🇦🇺
Would have been nice to overlay the current country sizes (borders) over the projected sizes.
Anyone notice at 8:02 the lakes from the US towards Canada are sort of in a diagonal line ?
The Andaman and Nicobar islands are owned by India, but this map shows them now as part of Myanmar. I think the most devastating part of this map is all those famous beaches of Thailand are mostly gone. Argentina would have a much stronger claim to the Malvinas.
"owned" no. You should instead write "part of" or "administered"
@@islandsunset Semantics.
how would the sentinelese react
I find it interesting how the "Ring of Fire" coasts barely changed at all while some others changed dramatically.
The missing water would be ice and that means the poles have larger ice caps that would connect more continents.
Mauritius here, thanks for highlighting us!
I found it interesting that in Indonesia the Wallace Line is suddenly a real feature.
A little bit correction is needed. Andaman Nikobar Islands come under India even though they are next to Burma.
Good video thanks - can you also include Hawaii the next time you make one of these. Would like to see if all the islands would one day?
It would be cool to see this in a globe format. The arctic has changed drastically but it’s difficult to visualize on a flat map.
Having Indonesia connected to the Philippines is like dream come true for me. I can finally walk there also the British would be triggered knowing Falkland Islands are now connected to Argentina which in case nobody knows, the 2 countries are fighting for it. With that mind, Argentina has more right to own the once an island now it becomes a peninsula.
I don't think Argentina has any more right than before simply because it's connected now.
Also I find it funny how the Riau Islands has truly bifurcated Malaysia. Instead of it being a sea border, there's actual hard land now
@@Khookies-lp2lu whileree I agree with your point, it's not so much about who has more right as it is about who can occupy it first

This is what the map looked like a couple thousand years ago, you will find many ancient structures and cities on the coastal regions of this map.
What? No... 2,000 years ago? It was Romans period, the world looked like now.
Maybe 2 million years ago it might have been more like this, but there weren't civilizations around to build the things you said. Where did you get that from?
@@RickZanardi In the Western side of India near the coast line of Gujarat the Archaeological Survey of India had found remains of an ancient city under the sea. And recently researchers from Deccan College Pune along with the Archaeological Survey of India have established that human remains discovered at an ancient site of Rakhigarhi in Haryana date back around 8,000 years. So I think we can find more remains of different ancient civilizations
@@RickZanardi I don't think they meant "couple" as literally two. I assume "couple" as in during the last ice age. But even still, sea levels were supposedly only around 120m lower during the last ice age.
@@tezsinha6405 I have no doubt that near today's coastline there are plenty of submerged villages and towns that some day we will discover, the coastline evolves even you don't account for sea level and 8 thousand years is enough for the shoreline to evolve. But the comment above suggests that there are submerged cities on the coastline that you see in the video, so close to 1,000 m underwater, from a couple of thousand years ago. Let's double that, let's go 4-5 thousand. Ancient Egypt time: if the world looked like this the Nile delta would have been in the middle of today's Mediterranean. This is out of any stretch of possibility within the civilization timeframe.
@@MrKanilammit exactly, I fully agree. And the ice age did not fulfill many criteria for which today we can suppose great cities and civilizations were there. It's cavemen period, maybe some advanced groups had huts or rudimental housing, but that's all...
I wanna rule out new land invasion routes. With sea level dropped, the places that used to be beaches could now be cliffs hundreds of meters tall
Based on this map you could to discuss more aspects such as the closed trading routes or that the north pole is completely cut off from the rest of the sea
Someone needs to do a "What-if" scenario and how it would effect the world!
agreed
Interesting video. What happened to the roughly 260 million km^3 of water? It had to go somewhere and would likely sit on top of all that new land in Russia, Norway, and Canada.

Belgium and Denmark. Rotterdam is now land-locked as opposed to the world's busiest port and Denmark's overseas countries have grown massively in size. Japan and Australia are next, since the famous "island" aspect is no more.
1.Sea level decrease
2.Starvation
3.Extincton😢😢
How does this work, it makes zero sense
You didn't show the massive ice sheet covering a big part of the northern hemisphere. The one that covered half of North America 20000 years ago contained enough water to lower sea level by more than 120 metres. A 1000 metre drop would in sea level would create enough ice to glaciate most of the world's land
The video is only about if ocean levels were lower than they are now, he doesn't need to provide a reason. It's purely speculation on one criterion.
We didn't freeze the water, we took it to terraform Mars.
Can you post higher Res versions of your maps?
Very educational. Thank you
Lets just drink all the water so we can have this

Where the h*ll is 1000m globally of water going to go? This is as stupid as an 80m level rise!
Ukraine is perfectly decreasing without changing the sea level))))))
Oh no!
Argentina borders on the UK!
Great stuff.
I love your shows.
a reference picture would be nice for each country. I think it lessened the impact of the growth of land.
Australia would only need a 100m sea level drop to join PNG and for Tasmania to join the main land.
The biggest issue would become the glaciers that would cover much of the Northern hemisphere
Does this map also take into account the isostatic adjustment & crustal displacement that may occur?
It is likely due to the increased weight of the polar ice caps and causing the distension at the equator and thin ocean crusts.
Hence, is it possible other landmasses, [e.g. Mid-Atlantic Ridge and/or larger Zealandia or Hawaii] might rise above the lower sea level?
To date, I haven't seen any glacial maximum maps take this into account. Just asking.
Please do 2,000meters next 😊

Interesting to contemplate the growth of existing landmasses such as continents and islands. But what I would have liked to see too is the birth of new islands. Or aren’t there any to speak of?
4:08 in order for the sea level to drop, we would be in another ice age. So Russia wouldn't be able to drill for oil, because all that area would be covered with ICE.
That’s true
Could you do one on possible geological changes these new land masses would have such as climate, quakes or volcanic etc. Hypothetical of course.
To be honest, what is incredible is how little the world changes with a 1000 metre sea level drop. Really shows just how deep the oceans are and how much effect they have on the planet.
It also shows how BIG the oceans are: 70% of the Earth's surface x 1000m. Where did it all go???
As a New Zealander, NZ isn't actually as unrecognisable as you'd think.
Geographically this actually makes it similar to what the islands supposedly would've looked like during the last glacial maxima, according to our school system anyway.
could you please tell me from where you got this map?
I noticed that the map of where the Mediterranean Sea is at in this. It is very similar to how the map for The Gandalara Cycle looks in the books.
@The Geography Bible
Are you gonna make the same video for rising water levels?

The thing to consider are all the shelves that would need crossed. Just because the water went away doesn't mean the obstacles did. Any land war across these gaps would be costly and time-consuming.
This kind of shows how deep the ocean gets very quickly in some places (Africa and the west coast of NA for example). Even 1000m of lower sea levels didn’t change the coast at all. I would’ve thought all coasts would change considerably.
The Maldives has actually grown in land mass. Since 2000, the Maldives have added 37.50 km2 of land area.
Well, done!
I'd love a map where the height map was inverted. As in, take the highest point (Mt Everest) and the lowest point, then take the midpoint between the two. Everything above that is now a negative elevation, and everything below is now a positive elevation. Then, drop the same amount of water back on the planet and see what happens. So, not as simple as simply making land water and water into land, but hopefully you get the idea.
It would be interesting to see the current shape of each country superimposed upon the new shapes arising from this hypothetical scenario.
That North Korean monument map is fascinating. I've often daydreamed about an alternative history setting where none of the nations we're familiar with came about, and instead completely unique countries arose in their place. I imagined this world as being geopolitically dominated by the South-East Asian/Australian/Micronesian part of the world (or whatever they'd call themselves in this parallel Earth) making them the equivalent of old world European power. Conversely Europe would have considered to have been the more obscure and fringe part of their known world - with Eastern Europe and the Balkans being the equivalent of India, Western and Central Europe being a more disunited Indonesia/Malaysia, and the Baltics, British Islands and Scandinavian countries being the least developed Papuan-esque region. I've often tried to mess around with 3D mapping sites to create what an atlas would look like in such a world - one that centralizes South-East Asia and Australia and nearby archipelagos, and puts Europe on the "edge" of that world's imagination.

What is the background music?
As a non native English speaker I find it fascinating to observe changes that are taking place in the language.
One such change is the conjugation of irregular verbs.
I notice that the past perfect tense becomes like the past tense. Like when as in this video the narrator consistently say "has became".
As far as I can tell there are few verbs for which that is not the case. The verb "to be". I never once heard anyone say "has was".
I distinctly hear the narrator still consider "to grow" to be irregular. He still uses the old "has grown" and not "has grew".
Interesting.
