Fun fact: As I know "to be drunk as a Pole" comes from Napoleon times. He (Napoleon) said it after winning the battle that occurred after won battle and party. All soldiers were drunk but only Poles were conscious and able to fight and they won this second battle. So this was a positive idiom.
That’s cool, I like it.
Wasn't it that the poles won significant battles for Napoleon in Spain making the French look incompetent after which a French officer tried to denounce the poles by stating that all of them are drunk to which Napoleon stated that they should also get drunk like the poles?
As a paleontology fan the way drew pronounced those dinosaur names killed me 💀
And he said pachyrhinosaurus is a FLYING REPTILE
The French saying "The English have landed" as a period euphemism is honestly hilarious considering people used to call them the Red Coats 🤣 I think I will have to use that.
I am Swiss and I have only ever used the dot. I didn’t even learn until adulthood Europe mostly uses the comma, and I am still not used to it. We also have the best thousands separator , like this: 1'000'000.
I'm Swiss too, and I think it's a generational difference. I was taught to use the comma in school, but now I use the dot (I'm 37). However, most old people still use the comma.
btw, it's not that older cities weren't built with compasses (I mean they were not), it's just that they grew organically instead of being planned, which makes them look less grid based
Its also possibly so that its easier to stop invaders
Yeah
Its because every road leads to the city centre in older cities
A bit of explanations about some of the French expressions presented, since not all of them are that pejorative.
1) To send to the Greek calends: The "calends" only mean the first day of a month in the old Roman calendar (calends/calendar...). There was no calends in the Greek calendar, so that's why the expression means to postpone indefinitely.
2) To talk like a Spanish cow: The expression is usually "To speak [X language] like a Spanish cow". Like : I speak English like a Spanish cow. The cow could have been of any nationality, it still works. I speak Spanish like a German cow.
3) Montagnes russes: this is how we say "rollercoaster" in French. I think English-speakers also call a quick variation between two extremes a rollercoaster.
4) Go get lost at the Greeks: "Va te faire voir chez les Grecs!" (Go get yourself seen in Greece) really means: "F*ck you!" An allusion to the alleged common homosexuality in Ancient Greeks...
5) To leave the English way: "Filer à l'anglaise", is not really about fleeing, but leaving. When you leave your hosts without even telling them "Au revoir!" The English have the same expression but about the French...
Merci beaucoup pour ces corrections, parce qu'honnêtement on passe toujours un peu pour des cons.
@@samousa C'est vrai. Nous les francophones de chaque côté de l'Atlantique, on doit se tenir ensemble. Parce qu'il semble qu'on soit un peu la tête de Turc de tout le monde.
Which brings me to:
6) To be the Turkish head: Être la tête de Turc, does not only mean to be the target of all blame, but to be the butt of all jokes from everyone.
Honnêtement, je ne connaissais pas la moitié des expressions. C’est peut-être parce qu’elles sont vielles? Ou alors ils ne sont pas utilisés en Belgique? En tout cas merci pour les explications.
Thank you, that was very helpful. In Italy we also say "To send to the Greek calends" and "Russian mountains" in the same way.

2:10 you missed the question of whether bride and groom are cousins, which cuts down on the number of family to invite because they're the same people!
Yep. A shrink would say that he is subconsciously repressing his Alabama roots.
"russian mountains" means roller coaster in french, which explains why this means a difference between two extremes. And also I don't know most of the expressions that are showed (as a french)
Me neither! so it’s not just me who doesn’t know half the expressions, they're old.
I love it when French people say 'As a French' lmao
@@Mmjk_12 we use it as a way to justify our statement (lots of people do that when talking about their country) and also French pride
@@orsaz924 yeah I understand, love the French, it's just funny because with most other nationalities you can say As a German, As an American. But for France it is 'As a French person'. 'As a French' just always throws me off lmao. IDK even know why it's different.

10:08 I loved the part where Australia is a pretty small country
The dot or comma in Canada depends if you're in a French influenced area or English influenced area. French areas usually follow Europe and use the comma, while English areas usually use the dot like England and USA.
This system gets quite annoying when dealing with data. Sometimes I have a European system generating the data and need to process it using an English (or American) program, which requires replacing commas with dots. This is also why you don't use decimal separators in data, since these are dots in continental numbers, and commas in English ones. An extra ctrl + F step is annoying enough.

I lived in Charlotte, NC for many years and can confirm the roads there are unnecessarily confusing.

The confusion with decimal separators comes from the fact most countries use both symbols, one for the decimal, the other for thousands separator.
For my Japanese study I set my device settings to Japanese. With that all my calculation apps changed too.
And yes, that means 20.000 is 20 as opposed to 20000 so I had to rewrite a lot of separators to fix that.
Moreover, in some asian languages their characters separate by ten thousands (0000) instead:
一 1
十 1 0
百 1 00
千 1 000
万 1 0000
億 1 0000 0000
兆 1 0000 0000 0000
During the late cretaceous (specifically 70 - 66 mya), Alaska was still pretty cold, so Pachyrhinosaurus lived in cold environments.
Jurrasic was the 3rd period of dinosaurs right?Cretaceous, Triassic and then Jurrasic
@@nrbmemes2414
Triassic: 252 - 201 mya
Jurassic: 201 - 145 mya
Cretaceous: 145 - 66 mya
Together, these three periods form the Mesozoic era. The Mesozoic started with a mass extinction (in fact the worst mass extinction of all time, killing over 90% of all species), and ended with a mass extinction, that killed 75% of all life. But did you know, that not all dinosaurs went extinct?
Though most dinosaurs went extinct, one group of small theropods (a group that usually includes meat-eating dinosaurs), survived up to the present-day. This group of dinosaurs I'm talking about has over 10,000 described living species, and have near-global distribution are... the birds. Yup, birds are quite literally living dinosaurs!
the french-repeatedly points to Dunkirk saying the British ran away, while simultaneously being 1/3 of the men that left.

7:06 In Canada its the Anglo/Quebec dived that causes this (more american/english vs french influence)

I'm watching this from central Tokyo and yes its crazy big here. Went to the Tokyo sky tree yesterday and you can truly see how the city just keeps going and going.
Yeah basically Tokyo is huge. INSANELY HUGE. So huge you can't even see the city's edge!
As a South African I am here to tell you in school we use both commas and dots. I was taught it means the exact same thing so it doesn't matter which one u use
In canada, it really repends on the context at this point.
I just rather avoid any ponction in my numbers above unless it's a decimal.
7:00 In Switzerland, we use both (depends on the person). There is no confusion between decimal separators and thousands separators, since for the latter we use the apostrophe ('). So, one thousand would be written as 1'000.
I find this to be the best system, since one could pretty easily mistake commas and periods (especially when something is hand-written).
7:09 In my expirience in Switzerland most people write commas if written by hand and it is obvious what‘s ment.
However when you start makeing lists e.g. of sport results you automaticly switch to points as decimal seperator and comma for number seperator like: (2.30,1.05,2.09,1.85) and in computer written stuff the point is more common in Switzerland
you don't use semicolons for lists of numbers?
When you read numbers with decimals out loud, do you say "comma" or "point"?
@@hkrohn depends on the language. In german I say „comma“, in english and french I say „point“

"the US and Canada have always bordered each other"
Yeah... That's (pretty much) how continents work.
Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Pangea the Wise? I thought not. It’s not a story the Jedi would tell you. (That’s not how continents work, many countries that bordered each other in Pangea don’t border each other anymore to this day, hence why the USA and Canada bordering each other is not obvious).
You could say USA and Canada are Twins damn France you gave birth to two Countries
Surprise fact: the geo-regions that we now call China and India did not always border each other...
@@TheBandit025Nova More like UK. US only bought French land, they were never controlled by French.
@@ARES-zf5fzYeah but they’re only independent thanks to France.
Edit: and Canada was created by the French and stayed that way until 1683.
0:50 although at one time the contiguous us did try to break apart. Thats why we can occasionally get earthquakes in the eastern us. They just arent extremely frequent like the west coast
There is Drew's Spirit french expression about nationalities : "être en Suisse, manger/boire en Suisse": To be in Switzerland, or to eat/drink in Switzerland which means "to eat/to drink by oneself without sharing"
10:26 PPP stands for Purchasing Power Parity. GDP in real figures can be misleading because 100$ in USA is not the same as 100$ in other parts of the world. For example you can purchase a lot more stuff with 100 dollars in countries like Bangladesh, Vietnam or Nepal. So GDP in real terms can be a bit misleading.
and GDP takes everything and shoves it together.
which makes it really difficult to really see how a place is doing.
if you have 1 billionaire who has 100 billion and 1 million people without money together they have almost 100.000 per person.
so in those statistics you would be a "great" place to be in.
never take statistics at face value, always put them in context.
@@ChristiaanHW yes that's called Gini Coefficient . It's very important in studying a nations economy.
this drew video is good and some of the maps are related to zimbax latest map video which he uploaded 2 days ago
As a Canadian, I love the fact that he called Alberta and Saskatchewan “territories” instead of Provinces

Well, universal does have massive plans for both epic universe and Nintendo land in Orlando. If Nintendo land turns out to be a big hit, that will change Orlando’s tourism industry away from Disney. Followed by the other Orlando attractions making their deals with video game studios.
I'm from Canada, specifically Quebec and we do use the dot or comma between dollars and cents but we use space for 1 000 or we just put 1000. Officially we use the comma, the dot is rare when it comes to money specifically.
The "Big thanks to my patrons" part was chaotic.

In part, fossil distribution depends on the age of the deposits in an area. You're not gonna find Cretaceous dinosaurs in Jurassic rock. The distribution of a species can also change over time. Horses, for example, evolved in North America but then went extinct there. Same as camels iirc.
0:28 somebody is defo going to clip him saying P*ki 😂😂
Dinosaurs are mostly found in those states because they have mountains that didn't excist in dino time. So when the montains formed the skeletons got pushed up.

My guess for why South Dakota is such an outlier in wedding spending is probably because people are spending tons of money so they can have their wedding at Mount Rushmore that’s the only explanation

The reason why Italy's gdp per capita dropped a lot between year 2000-2005 is because in 2002 we adopted EURO€. It is impossible to explain in a single comment but by doing this the mathematical conversion and economic conversion between euro and "lita-sterlina" (the previous currency) was a total mess, so many people lost a significant amount of money.
Yup same in France ,right of the bat when the € was adopted ,there was a +30% inflation on average,then a year after the € was adopted there was an additional +20% (So a total of +56%)
Like for example ,the price of baguette did a +1900% and the price of potatoes did a +4000%
Usually when a country change currency ,100 of the old currency will be equal to 1 of the new currency ,but here since every country had it's own currency ,it wasn't possible to do so business profited by inflating their price since consumer would need to bring a calculator to see real price and almost nobody was willing to do that anyways .
Then there is something else ,when multiple country use the same currency ,there is an outflow and an inflow of money ,between the adoption (By the respective country) and 2018 ,German gain 22 Trillions ,Netherlands gain 20 Trillions and Greece gain 20 Billions (They are the only country that benefitted from the euro ,per capita ,the Netherlands is the one who benefitted the most) while all other lost money (France was the biggest loser with 20 Trillions ,Italy in 2nd ,losing 18 Trillions and Spain in 3rd losing 14 Trillions)
And it's not data that can be seen on the GDP (Well there is still a part than is still reflected on the GDP ,Germany gain 3,5 Trillions ,the Netherlands gain 2,8 Trillions ,Greece gain 2 Billions while Italy lost 4,4 Trillions (So like losing 260 Billions yearly) ,France lost 4 Trillions ,Spain lost 2,5 Trillions ,Portugal lost 400 Billions ,Belgium lost 100 Billions)
These data stop in 2018 so now it's even worse .
The Euro was the biggest scam in european history. The "Deutsche Mark" (german currency before the euro) was one of the strongest currencies (besides the dollar) and overnight prices changed from 100% to almost 200% (they just put the same number with a different currency symbol on the price tags). While salary/wages were left untouched (dropping by almost 50%). Which resulted in a buying power of 25% (!) compared to the previous currency.
What currency you use does not matter if you do all the GDP comparisons in the same currency (usually the US dollar).
It is just that before the Euro, Italy was more able to manipulate the numbers to look better than it really was, together with a lot of low cost production shifting to Asia where the cheap stuff used to be made in Italy.

I'm Canadian and I've never seen or used a comma for a decimal. Maybe that's a Quebec thing or something.
To explain the theme parks thing since I'm a Floridian and we've literally got all of them here, Disney pulls in those numbers because 1) Everything is stupidly expensive and overpriced. 2) Because they have parks (sometimes multiple) in other nations to give you a breakdown there is 2 in the US (Florida and California), 2 in China (Shanghai and Hong Kong), 1 in Japan (Tokyo), 1 in France (Paris).
If we take their next closest competitor Universal there is 2 in the US (Florida and California), 1 in Japan (Osaka), 1 in Singapore, 1 in China (Beijing). All the other competitors are currently only US based with the exception of Six Flags apparently opening 1 park in Saudi Arabia of all places this year.
So to summarize if only the US numbers are compared I can promise the numbers will be quite different and while I can only really speak for Floridians most of us hate Disney with a passion for various reasons, we really don't mind the other parks since they have some good stuff in there and are not as overpriced as Disney is.
Disney makes about 5 billion a year from box office movies, 7 billion a year from Disney Plus, 28 billion a year from parks, and 56 billion a year from merchandise.
