    You said that Nepal is landlocked by only Russia and India. It is actually India and China. I think you made this mistake because you mentioned Mongolia just before which you correctly stated is landlocked by only China and Russia so Russia was in you mind.

      @@QWERTY-gp8fd ​​⁠ 😂 Oh really? 🤣 You must be thinking about sea-storms and keeping an eye on the “dangerous weather” in an app, having to do with each country’s coastal cities and their crime rates so much every day. *Besides, is it not correct that deserts* (including the Mongolian desert) *would be more unsafe for your health than enjoying a beautiful sight at the sea coast?*
      Just think, if you’re in a desert: you would be far away from your house and You would only be traveling a long distance, while the sun would be shining hot. Then …
      Would you not get sun burnt at all?
      If the desert includes sand, would you really survive through a sand-storm?
      Finally, would you not realize that you will eventually go hungry and starve to death? 🙂 I mean, If you packed up food for the desert, you may run out of it.
      Anyways, I don’t want to burn in a desert, *so yes thanks to the seacoast being a beautiful sight.* besides I don’t really think about “crime rates” in coastal cities that much, as I will think about Ukraine facing crime against Russia and Israel facing crime against Palestine often these days. *I feel much safer to avoid drowning in the ocean than to become hungry in Mongolian desert.* 😊

And since my family only took me once to a holiday to sea, I was soo sad I just don't have the opportunity to swim in the sea. xD Also us czechs everytime talking about this topic, we will mention the small season in a history where Bohemia would have acces to a sea through part of austra, part of Italy and whole Slovenia (not even for a century but whatewa) in 13. century haha

    I have only hurt one person in a fight in my life; when I was in the first grade of elementary (6-7 years old). in time between classes I was talking to a one of my friends and a bunch of other kids were around. someone mentioned going to the Caspian Sea and (being a wise-ass)I said: "Its actually a lake not a sea". someone in that group I didn't know replied: "You are stupid, if it's not a sea, why is it called the Caspian Sea" (we are speaking in persian, but we still call it a sea in persian)". I was so mad at that kid, we started arguing and he kept calling me stupid, so I said:"Lets see the map" and I grabbed him by the ear to drag him to the map. a few seconds later he started crying, his ear was partially torn off. there was a massive scar on the back of his ear that was caused by me pulling him towards the school map to show him the "Caspian lake". I remember a part of his ear becoming detached from the main part of the scull but I don't remember anything else. I hope that kid is doing well and still has his ear.

      On the map, it will tell you that it’s “Caspian SEA” and not “Caspian Lake”. In this case, I like the stranger’s reply to you within your group.
      Of course, any place that includes a lake, sea, gulf, etc …
      - should have “Lake” in its official name, only if it’s a LAKE.
      - should have “Sea” in its official name, only if it is a SEA.
      - should have “Gulf” in its official name, only if it is a GULF, etc. 🙂
      Finally, Confusing a lake for a sea (or vice-versa) is ridiculous.

    I’m from New Zealand, as mentioned in the video as the least landlocked and most remote country in the world. To me it would feel very strange living in a country with no access to the ocean. Aldi some of these landlocked countries may not have lakes and rivers so maybe some of these countries residents would never see a body of water?

      Other than the Vatican, which only has a very small pond in the middle of a car park, I doubt it, because you would really be able to sustain human life without access to water. But then the Vatican is just a church + associated buildings in the middle of Rome that happens to be its own country.

      Why countries on Baltic sea should be landlocked? They have access to Atlantic ocean through natural waterways, the Danish straights.
