I am Galician and I did the Dna ancestry test and i had some scottish and welsh genes, since Galicians were ethnically celtics😊 So it makes sense what you said about Galicia
Yay!! That's awesome!
Very nice video! Especially liked the german part since I am German myself. Fun fact: did you know that the name welsh originates from the german term welsch which means foreign or unknown. They used the term to refer to the romans settling west of the rhine who where not germans. So in ancient times everybody west of the rhine was refered to as being welsch. When the anglo saxons and many other germans came to what is now england they met celtic people in the west and took the name that was used to them to describe these people (welsch) and the country they lived in (wales). After the roman empire crumbled and the germans crossed and settled beyond the rhine once again the name welsch is now mostly used in switzerland or other regions bordering france to refer to the french.
I knew it meant foreign but didn't realise it was a thing done on mainland Germany. This answers so many of my questions, danke!!
Plot twist - Romans were Britons (Welsh) but the Roman part were invented by the de Medici family to make it seem as though they were two different people. On the order of the Vatican!
The page flipping in the beginning was lovely.
As usual you have the perfect mixture of soft spoken and whispers. Thanks for another great video 💤
You’re welcome 😊
Bremen and Hamburg used to be leading and important member cities of the Hanseatic League during the Middle Ages. Hanseatic League cities traditionally share the colors red and white in their flags and coats of arms. Also the City of Lübeck, over a long period the leading city of the Hanseatic League, bears those colors to this day, the now Polish (formerly German) city of Gdańsk (Danzig) had them.
Bremen, Hamburg and Lübeck btw. kept their status as city states even during the 2nd German Empire (Deutsches Reich) 1871-1918 and during the 1st republic 1919-1933. In the Federal Republic of Germany since 1949 Hamburg and Brenen kept their statehood as 'Bundesländer' to this day (whereas Lübeck became part of Schleswig-Holstein), which makes them play a much more crucial role in the political system of Germany than the Spanish regions for the Spanish state.
Last but not least two more fun facts:
The flag of the 2nd German Empire 1871-1918 were three horizontal stripes black-white-red, combining the Prussian colors (black and white) with the colors of the Hanseatic cities (red and white).
And the area codes on German license plates for Hamburg, Bremen and Lübeck (as well as Rostock, Stralsund and Greifswald later, after the Reunification 1990) begin with an 'H', for 'Hanseatic City' (HH, HB, HL, HRO, HST, HGW).
the book forgot Ceuta and Melilla, the two autonomous cities of Spain located on the coast of Africa, they have the same autonomy level than the rest of the autonomous regions
Oh yeah!!
They belong to Morocco anyways 😌
@@steph.h. in your dreams 😉
As you said, after the "reconquista" the ancient spain was divided into 3 kingdoms, castilla, aragon (wich included naples) and navarre. Fernando II de Aragon married Isabel I de Castilla in 1469, the anexed Navarre in the folowing decades and were named by the Pope as the "Reyes Católicos" the first former rulers of Spain as a united state. They also suppotted Colón in his travel to the Indias, so America was discovered under their government
I just subscribed to your channel!! Your videos are fantastic! Thank you for making me chill!!😊😊❤❤❤
Thanks for subbing! So glad you found the channel!
Very relaxing video eh, nice video.
Clicked on the notif as fast as I could! I love your videos with flags! 😄
Yay! Thank you!
About France, the three colours of the flag represent the monarchy (white) united with the people (blue and red was the flag of Paris, and red is often a symbol of the people)
As in the monarchy they abandoned and beheaded ? Like they have a president these days dont they ?
@@BackroomBanditthey also have two kings and an emperor 😉
Im from Madrid so I would like to say that the seven stars of our flag does actually represents the 7 hills of Madrid (las siete colinas de Madrid dónde se puede ver la constelación de la Osa Mayor) Great video by the way!
Buen dato
Omg i did not expect to see “La Réunion” in that video I was born there and I live there too !! 🇷🇪
It's so beautiful 😍
18:24 The flag of Saint Pierre and Miquelon does appear to have an English flag, however that flag is actually the flag of Normandy! When William the conqueror became lord, he was the lord of Normandy and Maine. The 2 lions are supposed to represent that. However, after he conquered England in 1066, he took the flag and added a 3rd lion to it. That flag with the 3rd lion on it remains England’s coat of arms however the original flag with the 2 lions still remains the flag of Normandy.
Smart!
I'm from Spain and its very impressive the pronunciation you've got, congrats!
Se ve que ha estudiado el acento español eh
I'm new to this channel and I liked many of your videos. Is there a video on your channel with information about you? your profession, age etc.
Ahhh!! You should have explained the symbolism of the coat of arms of the Spanish flag 🇪🇸🇪🇸 I found it quite interesting ❤❤
Now you have me looking at lonely planet guidebooks, they look so well made.
Such a good company!
Very good video, and I was very impressed with your french pronounciation ! Too bad the book didn't show the regional flags, but at the same time, unlike Spain our regions don't have any degree of autonomy, and just a few of the 13 actually have logical geographical boundaries
Merci !
It's a shame because I think Europe has a lot of diversity while being so "small" as a continent, but because of some historical moments, a certain number countries lost a lot of their cultural features.
For example: in Spain, the now called co-official languages, like galician, where once prohibited outside family or friendly conversations. And a lot of people only spoke those languages and understood spanish.
France is big and has a lot of cultural diversity, but that centralization of power, wealth and culture a few centuries ago cause a lot of damage to the historical regions
@@Controlqueen31 I agree with everything you said ! I truly hope the next government does something to put a stop to these 120+ years of erasing regional langages, at least on the level of what was done in the Basque Country and Galicia
Merci pour la vidéo !!
Your voice is so relaxing
Oh thank you!
True.
Your pronunciation with French flags names are so good !
Merci !
On the flag of Saint Pierre et Miquelon the third flag at the bottom its the Norman flag (french region)
Vive la France 🇨🇵🇨🇵
Just as a side note for 13:28 , Valencia is just the name of one of the three provinces (Castelló, València and Alacant), the name of the region or comunidad autónoma is Comunidad Valenciana, Comunitat Valenciana or País Valencià
24:57 Frankfurt (Francfort) is in Hessen (Hesse) and Mainz in Rheinland-Pfalz (Rhineland-Palatinate)
When I read the title I immediately thought of six the musical 😂
”From spain, to france, and germany… the king chooses one but which one will it be?”
Shoutout from New-Caledonia ❤
When you spoke about the local accent in Bavaria... as a born-and-bred Northern German person I feel seen and heard 😂
Seen and heard, but I couldn't understand a word!! lol. Bavaria was like visiting a different country to me... a very beautiful country!
The Both flags in the north ( Mecklenburg westernpomerinia and Schleswig Holstein ) These colours are the colours from the „hansezeit“
J'adore l'Europe! La France, l'Espagne et l'Allemagne sont les pays très magnifiques avec les cultures similaires et des cools traditions
Interestingly, the French cockade on the revolutionary's Phrygian cap, which is read from the center outwards, was used in early years of the French Revolution in no defined order. This book colored it in red-white-blue way, which is currently those of the UK's cockade and not of France which is blue-white-red!
Yeah it's weird but red-white-blue for the colours of the french cockade is right
Vive la france 🇨🇵🇨🇵
How interesting!!
F%ck the revolution anyways
Amazing 👍🙏
As a Northrhine-Westphalian I can confirm that living here is great. You won't even notice going from one city to another, at least in the Ruhrgebiet.
Fun fact: on the coat of arms of the Canary Islands are two dogs shown. Well they’re called the “can” or “perro de presa canario” and for some reason there has appeared a controversy between them which made the government of the Canary Islands to remove it from government buildings but it’s still represented on the internationally recognised flag
Btw is a bit weird why the flags of the two autonomous cities of Spain (Ceuta and Melilla) are missing
Yes, I received a few comments mentioning this. It is odd that they are missing.
I‘m German but I also lived in Spain for 6 years and in Portugal for 4 years when I was an kid. Now we live in Germany again since 6 years
Oh nice! I am so envious :) 3 lovely countries!
I might be wrong, but I believe Tahiti/French Polynesia is a similar situation to Holland/Netherlands
I like how you say: 'here'.
It's very Welshy
Saksa is also the Finnish name for Germany.
buen vídeo amigo, un saludo desde galicia
Can you add the German account? I just found your page and it is AMAZING!!!
Please do the Polynesian countries
Since you have done spain, france and germany, maybe you could you poland, belarus and ukraine as it follows the same style?
Yes, defo!
I've got the same book!
Where do u buy the book??
particularmente mis amigos españoles nice spanish

Reading a book in record time may seem like an impossible feat, but more and more people are attempting it in an attempt to win the title of fastest reader of a book. Called a "speedrun," this activity requires a reader to commit themselves to completing a book in a set amount of time, usually 24 to 48 hours. Several theoretical courses of action are available to achieve such a task, such as avoiding distractions, taking frequent breaks, and reading as fast as possible. The challenge is usually taken with a timed checkpoint system, where chapters are divided for timing purposes. So far, the world record for the fastest book speedrun is held by an American reader who completed the novel "The Catcher in the Rye" at an astonishing speed of four hours and forty minutes.
As Gaeilge 🇮🇪;

out of context question, if you could bring back a destroyed or a fictional building to modern times, where and what would it be?
Alexandria Library
@@monkeyy660prob the best choice
I'd either like to see the Great Pyramid of Giza when it was first built (covered in gold!) or see the Colossus of Rhodes before it sank into the sea. The hanging gardens of Babylon would also be pretty spectacular!
Im from Asturias (Spain)
We have a lot of Celtic and germanic dna here
When you said Frankfurt is in NRW it broke my heart because I was born in Frankfurt and yes it is in Hessen 😂😭
Sorrrrryyyyyy!!!!
Hello, thanks for the video, please tell me the name of the book, or how to find it 🙏🤝

"martinique, very cool flag"

Strange! Portugal it's hardly mentioned in your programme..one of the eldest alliance in the World between England and Portugal...and not to mention the history regarding navigation and the early World discoveries.
Check out my Portuguese channel; I just did a Portugal map and fact video! th-cam.com/users/welshasmr82portuguese
will you do poland by any chance?
Yes, soon!
@@WelshASMR82Mapshell yeah 😎
Excuse me, what's the name of this book? I would like to buy it.
It's on Amazon! Book of Flags by Lonely Planet Kids
I am French, the three colours of the french flag weren't chosen to represent liberty, equality and fraternity. It comes from the "cocarde" used by the revolutionaries to recognize each other from the royalists, and a symbol of unity. The blue and the red are the colours of Paris where the Revolution started, and the white was the symbol of the French Monarchy.
Merci !

Frankfurt is hessen and Mainz capital of Rheinland-Pfalz
I wish this guy was my teacher
Los colores y forma de la bandera de GALICIA (España) no representan a la Virgen María.
La antigua bandera del Reino de Galicia representaba un cáliz (incluído en el escudo actual). Pero los colores y la forma tienen otro origen: En el siglo XIX los gallegos empezaron a emigrar masivamente a América. La mayoría de los barcos que salían de Galicia cargados de emigrantes, llevaban la BANDERA MARÍTIMA de Coruña, que es como la bandera de San Andrés escocesa, pero con los colores invertidos (fondo blanco, cruz azul). Esa bandera empezó a utilizarse oficiosamente como bandera gallega, sobre todo entre la comunidad emigrante de América.
¿Y qué pasó? Pues que esa bandera era IGUAL a la de la Armada Rusa, lo que producía confusiones en la mar. Entonces se decidió eliminar una de las dos aspas de la cruz de San Andrés, y es la bandera que actualmente tiene Galicia.
Qué interesante - gracias!
Fun fact: Bremen (Germany) is split into 3 parts
It is a confusing place! I looked at it on my German channel recently
hii saludos de andalucia españa ✌️
Hola!!
@@WelshASMR82Mapsque tal??
Muy bien! Me encanta Andalucía. Vivía en Murcia así visitaba Andalucía muchas veces... Almería, Granada... una maravilla.
what book is that?
The flash book - lonely star kids
Little fact :
Our french flag is not about equality, fraternity and liberty. Its about the colors of Paris ( red and blue ) and of the monarchy ( white )
how many languages do you speak?
Erm, about 8-10 fluently and then quite a lot more where I can do basic stuff :)
@@WelshASMR82Maps that's amazing
@@WelshASMR82Maps🐐
@@WelshASMR82Maps What are they if you dont mind me asking
I don't mind! English, Welsh, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Russian, Italian, Mandarin... my Swedish is pretty good, especially listening/reading skills and then Dutch, German, Korean, Japanese, Arabic, Hebrew, Polish... my weaker ones are Hindi, Bengali, Greek and Turkish.
In the book, the signification of the French flag colors is totally false ! The blue and red are the colors of Paris, central place of the Révolution and the white is the color of monarchy, the colors of our flag aren't for Liberté Égalité Fraternité 😅 Great video 🇫🇷
Croatia?
Holiii desde españitaaaa
Ich finde es ein bisschen komisch, dass die Bundesländer in englischen sa anders sind. Warum benutzt man nicht die deutschen Namen, wie bei annderen Länder
English speakers cannot cope with foreign words!!
Time to sleep yall
En España faltaron Ceuta y Melilla
Sí!
Santander is in Cantabria
Gracias!
Réunion is here🇷🇪
Salut !
According to it's constitution, Spain actually has no state religon, so we are technically not a Catholic country! Culturally however... that's a whole other story 😅
Ah, interesting. There are some other countries similar to this, Turkiye for example isn't officially a muslim country. English isn't the official language of the USA, or England, just de facto, etc. I love these little facts
Rheinland Palatanite? Please what?
Diversión con banderas
Sorry, but kiel isn't in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. This is the most sparsely populated region in Germany. So we have almost no big cities. The largest are Rostock and Schwerin.

Frankfurt isnt NRW
Egal Frankfurt ist eh scheiße
Spain is largely comprised of Catholic Christians (up to 76%), while its population also includes a large Muslim population (4%). Buddhism is not widely practiced in Spain, with only an estimated 0.02% of the population self-identifying as Buddhist. This minuscule percentage partly reflects the absence of significant Far Eastern immigrant communities in the country. Additionally, Buddhism was previously considered a “superstitious” religion in Spain since it was not affiliated with any of the State-accepted churches or religious sects. That said, the Buddhist scene in Spain is starting to grow, with more and more practitioners attending and taking part in Buddhist celebrations across the country.
🇨🇵🇨🇵
Federalism between Israel, Lebanon and Palestine!!!😎
Spain is a largely Spanish-speaking country, and so the amount of people who speak Hindi is quite low. According to Statistics Spain, less than 0.2% of the population of Spain speaks Hindi as their native language. Despite the small percentage of native Hindi-speakers, the use of Hindi is growing in Spain as more people from India immigrate there and as more Spanish students learn the language. The exact number of Hindi-speakers in Spain is is difficult to track due to the constantly changing dynamics in the country, but it is certain that it is increasing.
