Well
Hmm I wonder how he was able to predict that
I laughed when he said “get the gang back together” referring to the former Soviet Union
NATO: Oh no, not again!
Makes much more sense now...
I think Putin read your comment.

"this map will be old in 2019 when the uk leaves"
hmmmm
Welcome from the future. We are no longer in the EU
@@burikinodance Technically yes but for all intents and purpose, we are still a full EU member without any say and that doesn't change until at least the end of the year and likely longer than that with this coronavirus going on, if it even happens at all now because this virus could change a lot of things in ways we don't expect.
The united states started off as a union of 13 countries basically. Every state had a pretty unique identity before the American Civil War.
did he call south america south africa?
Ye
Same thing
No
They were once united at some times.
That is the first time that i dig a person who can talk non-stop. So funny!
4:10 Little unions
*Pionts at the second biggest union only after NATO*
Notification Union
I always imagine what would aliens think in case they bump into our planet and see how we’ve actually segregated our land in a pretty funny (maybe unnecessary?) way and have these virtual “unions” and regulations. Like “No you cannot access this land cause you were born on this other piece of land”...?
Indeed, human logistics are quite flawed but as sentient life, we shall fix those flaws.
Very true. For some reasons, alien planets in pop culture are often portrayed as a single country.
Actually, Kuwait didn't close its airspace to Qatar. Kuwait and Qatar still have relations with each other.
And Oman

America's ATM:Syria Iraq and Palestine
What about Nepal
Another great geography video!
I love your videos!You are so passionate and make very interesting videos, it makes me wanna now more geography
Morocco actually left the AU after the recognition of Western Sahara as a country
They rejoined last year.
Wow, apparently there's been great schism in the Union of South American Nations (a left-right or Venezuela-antiVenezuela schism it looks like), with only Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, and Bolivia remaining; Guyana, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Paraguay, and Brazil joining the newly-formed Forum for the Progress and Developmemt of South America; and Uruguay withdrawing without joining the FPDSA (a.k.a. PROSUR/PROSUL).
Love your vids
Isn't there a Central American Union? A guy from Honduras showed me his passport once and the cover of it depicted all the Central American Countries (with Honduras being highlighted). There's definitely something going on there, unless my memory is completely fabricated.
They are called Central America-4 I think, they have border control agreement, that's probably why they have a common passport design
take a shot every time he says "again"
again
Really good video :D
what about the Organization of American States?
@@Account-jn7xunope, "states" in the sense of sovereign nations. The United States, in this case, is counted as one state of the 35 member states of the Americas.
It is just an organization based on vague things like protecting human rights, akin to the council of Europe
re: South America, were you talking about Mercosur? If so, not quite as large as you described it.
love ur videos! could u try to do one of the faroe islands, aka my home? would be happy if u did!

3:02 you mixed switzerland and Liechtenstein, switzerland is in EFTA and Schengen but not the EEA
Tfw I didn't even know about your gaming channel. 🤣
Lmfaooo that description of the US right now at the end of the vid was spot on. So accurate.
Kuwait and Oman did not blockade Qatar ,so you can fly over Kuwait
ah fair enough - however it doesn't actually affect any international route, as neither two are blocking Qatar directly anyway
Fun fact: around 20 ears after the creation of the EU (pretty sure it was 1963) Morocco applied for membership. What an idea
Asked the application for 2 times.
They refused it both without even discussing with the members.
There is also the Arab league, but i guess it's irrelevant.(it's different from the gulf union thingy)
Ali Mneimneh
Arab unity is an oxymoron. , :)
The Arab League is more of a mutual security union than a union of the kind of the EU or EEU which are economic unions.
Ali Mneimneh GCC IS OUR LAST HOPE
forgot AOSIS - association of small island states
You forgot to mention to Nordic council
what about the south asian association for regional cooperation?
I think Australia and new Zealand have a joint air market because I see air nz flights from Sydney to USA direct.
What about mercosur ?
What do you think about the whole brexit situation? I'm from the EU - austria to be precise - and I think it REALLY sucks. I'm really interested in your point of view on this.
He will soon get his Irish citizenship so it wouldn't matter for him
Plot twist: *Every union will eventually join into one country and every country within it will become a province or inner country.*
Gross. Down with globalism!
The UK still hasn’t left
Oof
what about Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC)?
Fun fact. Australia and New Zealand are also observer states of ASEAN. Australias former prime minister spent 3 years persuading Obama to observe the ASEAN agreements (because our alliance is in place to protect Asia from Russia and China) then Trump took power and pulled out of the region (causing Australia to be the only country stopping Chinese aggression)
Another fun fact is Australia is also part of the Air union which is why we can fly Australian Qantas which is the world's safest airline or we can board Malaysia airlines and get shot down by Russia, crash into the Indian ocean (flight 370) or go missing.
Another fun fact, ASEAN countries are the only place Australians may go if they have a criminal record. Never trust an Aussie in Cambodia or even Indonesia.
Back in 1918, there were 51 countries, and 25% of the world was a recent acquisition of Britain. I don't know if now should be considered a rise in the number of countries, and more a return to form after that aggressive expansion brought on by colonialism.
It's the rise of countries because before colonialism there was only empires and kingdoms
@@spencer4679 Yes, and a hell of a lot more of them than after colonization.
Where's the label for Switzerland on the map?
Only EU members got names on that map.
And Switzerland is to tiny to show its name on the world map.
Well, the end of this video was certainly something O.O
is fascinating to me how europeans know more about the middle east than of south america… maybe calling the USA just America voids every other country in the American continent
If you think about it, America isnt actually going the other way; its just going the same way, but it had a head start. At the beginning, it was very much as if it were the however many states acting in compliance with the union to make it work, and who believed they could leave if it was not beneficial. This is similar to these other unions, except they have less ambition to become the way the US is.
Wouldn't it be cool if the EU actually WAS a country?
As an italian, being part of the same country as Germany or Sweden would be awesome.
(or at least much better then what we have now)
And then create a "North Terran Union" together with Canada, Greenland and Russia. That would be cool.
I have a question why are so many Italian for a European Federation? That is quite uncommon in other european countries. I think most want that their countries stay a sovereign state and the EU a loose confederation
@@johannbrucker-sladkovic2444 An actually functioning EU as a country would be like the modern Rome. Capable of competing with India, China and the US without being pushed around by anyone. Unlike now where each individual country is at risk of being exploited by foreign powers via one sided deals and no say in the world.
@@abdullahsaur So it is because of their roman ancestors? Very interesting because i as an Austrian do compare a functional EU as a modern version of the Habsburg Empire whilst i compare the EU today more as the Holy Roman Empire.
But to compare it to the Imperium Romanum is fitting much better. Maybe if once a single administration language is needed we should also use latin (because it's quite neutral, a historical language of a lot of countries and the language of science of course)
@@johannbrucker-sladkovic2444 Maybe? I'm sure that everyone has their own reasons for it but generally, to establish one, people need to actually care about it. That's where comparing it and calling it a continuation of European tradition of uniting the continent (i.e. Habsburg Empire, H.R.E, Charlemagne, Roman Empire, Napoleonic France, etc) might make people care about it more.
A projection of strength is something comparing it to Rome gives. Yeah, they might make Latin an official classical language, like ancient Greek and Church Slavonic similar to India who have a list of classical languages that get special funding for research and special treatment.
I'd like the Asian Countries to form a union around the South China Sea and Latin American countries to form one around the Caribbean Sea, most unions should form around a sea to encourage trade
0:50 ya overheard of zealandia?
You forgot the Arab League
How can the world's 4th largest economy not be powerful?
Wouldn't it be good to get the gang back together 😅
great in there

@@leylandbrabander7094 it changed
When you were showing Caricom you pulled up a diagram of the Eastern Caribbean States not a diagram of Caricom
I am a big supporter of European unification and I think we need federalism therefore. However, I don't wanna make it an America2.0, thus I would not call it United States of Europe
Lu Ke l ♥️ EUrope
fun fact: there's more portuguese speakers in south america than spanish speakers
You forgot APEC (Asian Pacific economic corporation which has 21 countries along the pacific rim
Where did u hear Canada doesnt want to be in free trade deal with Us, Mexico? I heard the opposite.
God, I love your videos!
What about COMECON and NAFTA? COMECON no longer exists but is worth noting.
There's also the Organisation of American State which includes most countries in the Americas including the US.
and thäää wööooouuurrrld ... and stuff. xd
When its 27 now, 2020
Not all gcc countries blockading qatar
Only Saudi and uae and the small island of bahrain
Association of Caribbean States
You missed ECO!
In American we do have a bigger Organizacion it is call OAS Organization of American States
Their is no real equivalent of the EU anywhere. Regarding depth of integration the EU is a sui generis and no other comes close

I expected you to say there were like 3 countries, Spain, France and then the British empire 😂
The south America one was completely wrong lol
Bahrain sounds like Britain
Well Part of Kazakhstan is in Europe (west of Ural river)
Even if the UK leaves the EU will still be 28 states if not more, since Albania, Montenegro, FYR Macedonia, and Georgia are all in the process of joining.
ASEAN doesn't include all South-East Asian countries. East-Timor is not in there.
We're most likely to get the East African Federation before we even get close to a United States of Africa.
I heard somewhere there was going to be a European Union type thing with Mexico, Colombia, Peru, and Chile.
Kubelwagen I said Albania because I saw an article recently that said Estonia supports Albania in joining the EU. Georgia because a former president said they would likely join within 10 years or something. Montenegro because they recently joined NATO and already use the Euro. And FYR Macedonia because they tried once before but were denied by Greece because of their name.
All of them won't join before the UK leaves.
Kubelwagen And eventually Kosovo if everyone finally agrees on what it's supposed to be.
Salvini is viewed like a scumbag by most italians actually so it luckily isn't likely for him to win.
His party as an history of being the secessionists for the noth from the rest of the country so it doesn't have much support, if any, in the south
Supreme King Serbia will probably give up Kosovo when all the chapters for EU membership are opened.
Organization of American States?
If any of you thought he talked too quickly try watching it on 1.5x speed because the video is longer than the amount of time you have left at lunch haha
I like that he talks so fast. I hate slow talkers.
Red Viper I agree, I really like that he talks quickly, but it gets kind of hard to understand if you speed up the video too much, haha
Kacee you only have 20 minutes at lunch? I have 30 mins
They could have 2 hours, but if the video only came out with 29 ins left, then the length wouldn't matter.
New Zealand is in a union called Oceania what is basically all the pacific islands and New Zealand. New Zealand is a self governing country that doesn't really need help it's more for the pacific islands. And also the British commonwealth is pretty much a union
The only thing in common with the Commonwealth is that they have the Monarch as a figurehead
There is no political or economic union between the 53 member countries
See India and Pakistan as they are at best at unstable peace
The problem is that I find with a lot of these other unions is the massive difference from country to country in so many areas that makes it difficult to work and even thought I like what they are trying to do, I get the feeling they just seem to let anyone in whereas with the EU, countries need to do a lot of reforms before they can join and I feel that is the right way in doing it, after all, to create common standards over many different nations, a lot of reforms are needed, the EU is good at doing that because it doesn't let anyone in too easierlly, other unions seems to let anyone in and there is little incentive for them to do the real changes, also by not having political oversight over the economics, it makes it too easy for bigger members to take advantage of smaller ones in a lot of these other unions whereas the EU has political oversight that creates common standards for all members and that makes it a lot fairer for them all.
So it will be interesting to see how they developer but the EU one seems the most likely to work because it's not rushed.
Yeah I noticed that with the EU and the middle East they have many fewer countries while South America and Africa have literally the whole continent
@@spencer4679 I do like what these others are trying to do around the world but I feel they are trying to emulate the EU but rushing it when creating a union over many different countries takes time, it can't be rushed and I think that's why these others are not very effective where the EU is.
As a former practicing attorney & U.S. Government Official, additionally before working for the Federal Government I worked for my State's Legislature, and after working for the U.S. Government I moved back to my home State and was a Prosecutor for a District Court's jurisdiction in my State's court legal system. I got tired of working in law, because I'm jaded with the U.S. Government and legal system at both the State and Federal levels, and then went back to school to obtain a PhD in History and am now a professor of History at a large, top ranked, University in the U.S. To answer your question, the United States of America is a group of 50 Sovereign States (It's in the name - United STATES of America. Not the "Federal Republic of America", "America", the "Representative Democracy of America" is because the Founding Fathers of the United States (Especially, the drafter of the Declaration of Independence - Thomas Jefferson, and one of the main committee members for the Declaration of Independence from the Continental Congress - Benjamin Franklin) wanted the State governments to be stronger than the Federal Government. Jefferson wanted the Federal Government to essentially only prevent the people who live in the States and from whom the Government derives it's power, has only the duty to protect the people from injury - Against International Powers (Where it would TEMPORARILY control the State Militias), settle criminal issues that occurred when a State violated a Citizen's Inherent Rights (Federal Subject Matter Jurisdiction)/, treason, etc., and Civil Matters between two people of two different states where the damage in controversy exceeds a financial amount which has changed over the years and is now = or > $75,000.01, a lawsuit between a State and the Federal Government, etc.
Jefferson, Madison, Franklin, Mason, etc., even made comments which, essentially, asserted, that if the Government infringes upon the Rights of the State(s) or the People, than it is the duty of the State(s) and/or the People to secede and form a separate government, to work for a change in the Constitution by the power of the people, or as a last and final measure when all else fails to rise in revolt and form a new government of, for, and by the People.
When Thomas Jefferson was President, many New England States threatened to secede from the U.S. when the Louisiana Purchase was made. Thomas Jefferson replied, "I hope in departing we do so remaining as friends..." He knew that the rights of the States were what was important, as they were closer to the people under their jurisdiction and knew their needs better, and the U.S. under the current Constitution was just to form a better government, but still in the spirit of, the one under the "Articles of Confederation."
James Madison, George Mason, James Monroe, etc. were all in agreement with this. We even fought a Civil War over this subject, in which Abraham Lincoln lied about a lot of things, violated the Constitution, and fought it over Slavery as only 6% of people in the Southern States owned almost 100% of the slaves. President Buchanan had made an armistice agreement with South Carolina, South Carolina could have easily overtaken Fort Sumter when Major Anderson and Abner Doubleday took it over at bayonet point (violating orders from the Secretary of War not to leave the fort they were currently at), and South Carolina was feeding them and had agreed to continue to provide the Fort with provisions.
By the way, Fort Sumter hadn't even been commissioned as a Federal Fort. At the time, the United States derived most of it's income from the Tariffs and Taxes of the Southern States who imported goods due to their agrarian economies and had to provide the northern states with a quota of raw materials for the northern industry vs. selling all they could internationally. Just the Port of Charleston, South Carolina would have cost President Lincoln millions of dollars to the U.S. Treasury each year.
That's not including: The ports of Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia (especially Savannah), Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana (Which New Orleans was the largest port in the South), and Texas with (Galveston as a huge port and financial center), and Brownsville, as well as cross border trade with Mexico and Texas. Abraham Lincoln, in his First Inaugural Speech, stated that he wasn't going to touch slavery in the states where it existed and was going to tightly enforce the controversial "fugitive slave act", so why would the South leave when it put slavery in more danger than staying in the Union. Besides, as technology and mechanical means for harvesting the cash crops of the South "Cotton, Sugar Cane, Rice, and Tobacco" were going to be cheaper to harvest via mechanical methods, which would have made slavery cost prohibitive.
So, Lincoln "baited" the South into firing the first shots, by sending warships full of federal troops to Charleston Harbor under the auspices of a re-supply shipment. All one has to do is look at the Government records telegraph transcripts, contemporary records, memos, statements, newspapers, and intelligence reports.
Slavery was a terrible thing, I am the first to say that, but the Civil War went back to the feud between Thomas Jefferson (and the Anti-Federalists) and Alexander Hamilton (and the Federalists....caveat - even though James Madison was a main contributor to the Federalist Papers, he was more in favor of State Rights, but defended the document which contained a lot of his work from the "Virginia Plan"). Those who counter this, say that the CSA government and the states that seceded all put slavery as a reason in their secession "justifications" and constitutions. Well, that is true. But, who wrote those documents? The 6% of slave owners who were HUGE plantation owners and owned the majority of the slaves.
There were quite a few Confederate Generals and Confederate leaders who disliked slavery and wanted to emancipate the slaves and their families if they joined the army or supported the war effort of free will (Including, but not limited to: Patrick Cleburne, Robert E. Lee, Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson, Richard S. "Dick" Ewell, James "Pete" Longstreet, Edmund Porter Alexander, CSA President Jefferson Davis, CSA Secretary of State Judah P. Benjamin [Who is the person who gave the States in Canada the broad rights they have today, because he was a HUGE STATES' RIGHTS figure and for a "racist" regime, he was a Jewish Confederate leader, and went to Canada after the war and practiced law again as a Barrister there, and won several key High Level cases that became Common Law and later codified], and 5 CSA State Governors, etc.).
In fact, Robert E. Lee stated, "If it were within my power, I would set free all of the slaves on the continent to prevent this war, if that is what the war is about." Whereas, Abraham Lincoln said, "I would keep all of the slaves in bondage, for perpetuity, if that is what this were is being fought over."
Regarding those who have recently released ads by "Robert E. Lee" about capturing and punishing runaway slaves from "Arlington House" (His house and land are now where Arlington National Cemetery are, as punishment for Lee siding with his state, which is what people back then identified themselves as citizens of, more than they did of the U.S. How was he putting so much effort into the affairs of the slaves his wife inherited (Robert E. Lee never bought any slaves, they all belonged to his wife), as he was a career military man who spent most of the 1840s and 1850s in the War with Mexico, in a U.S. Dragoon Regiment under the command of future Confederate General Albert Sidney Johnston before Lee took command himself, as commandant of the U.S. Military Academy of West Point, and only just before the war moved back home. These ads were placed by someone on his land, like an overseer, and he likely knew nothing about them as he was busy with his military career.
Presidential power has increased since then, Teddy Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson increased it even more, Teddy Roosevelt did so even more, LBJ, Bill Clinton, Barack Obama have all dramatically increased how much power a President has, often ignoring the Constitution, going to war without the consent of Congress, suspending Habeas Corpus and ignoring a Supreme Court ruling to the contrary, shutting down newspapers and locking up people for using free speech as defined by the Courts as valid (Abraham Lincoln) 1st Amendment Rights. The U.S. Congress has vastly overstepped the powers it has via the 10th Amendment which state that only those powers vested to the Federal Government (In the U.S. Constitution).
Congress passes bills which become U.S. Statutory Codes that far exceed their power.
The Supreme Court has become an "ad hoc legislature". America is supposed to be EXACTLY like the EU, with a "tad more" central power, but it has morphed into what is a centralized government in all but name.
GREAT VID!
“When brexit happens” funny joke
Mercosur and ALENA : Am I a joke for you ?
What's about India ?
In the USA the states have there government then city’s have there own governments too
Ooo that's Yemen
Does Australia have a union? ;P
could you count the Empire of Atlantium?
British Commonwealth of Nations, various trade unions, and mutual deals with many countries.
D Murphy They have the Pacific Islands Forum.
Trans-Tasman Arrangement
No, but NZ could enter on Mercosur (South America Union), as well Mexico
Mercosul is a thing, but this union of south american nation is the second time I heard about.
The GCC is about Countries which touch the Arabian/Persian gulf. Not countries on the peninsula, And Iraq was kicked due to the Kuwait war and iran isn't part of it and will never be, atleast i think so.
