The way we make sense of our world today is through BORDERS. It's also the way in which we are able to govern our societies.
In today's video, join me as I tell you about some of the world's most bizarre borders which will leave you scratching your head!!
NORTH KOREA v. SOUTH KOREA
KALININGRAD, RUSSIA v. EUROPEAN UNION
AZERBAIJAN v. NAGORNO-KARABAKH
THE DIOMEDE ISLANDS: RUSSIA v. USA
ANTARCTICA
If you ask me, borders (in general) are a strange concept. Like hundreds of years ago, the notion of creating an imaginary line that separates human beings from one territory to another is weird -- and today, it seems as if borders are permanent. What are your thoughts on borders?

Yes and they like it when you throw a fish to them

Drew Binsky I know hahaha it was a joke about you always emphasising the friendliness and hospitality of the people you meet in any country you visit, keep up the good work man hope you can get out there travelling again soon 😄
@@drewbinsky r/woooosh
We recommend a visit to the DMZ but the best way is to do it from the DPRK side. The South Korean side is too touristy
I agree
i have a mate who has done tours of both side and his conclusion is the south really try to drum up the fear for dramatic effect when visiting the dmz while the north the tour of the dmz is a lot more relaxed
Kim how are you doing without coronavirus
Kim don't lie to us your country does has covid-19

Drew, watching this video today, I find it amazing that you've documented the border between Armenia and Azerbaijan in view of the most recent events down there. You've mentioned the disputed Karabagh and the Artsakh. It reveals an honest work on your part and a will to go deep in the subject. It shows you really enjoy travelling and most of all learning as much as you can about the countries you visit (but this shows in pretty much all of your videos).
So thanks a lot for that, it is highly valued by travel aficionados, especially in this period where movements are restricted... we kinda travel with you. Keep up the good work and I hope you manage to visit all 197 countries very soon !
Drew: "Most borders make a lot of sense, if the languages are different, such as France and Germany"
Alsace-Lorraine: Wut?
This was the worst example that one Globetrotter as Drew can say....
Going deeper all the borders of France don't have any sense
Starting from the North,
1.The flamish town of DUNKERQUE
2.Britain
3.basque
4.Catalan
5. Corsica and Nizza ( not Nice)
Then l let you imagine how they split west Africa
Alsace-Lorraine : sad Illkrich-Grafenstaden, Drachenbronn-Birlenbach and other stuff noises
Most borders in Africa make zero sense..at least to the Africans. Same people suddenly found themselves in different countries
@Baby Kimi Hi. Not really. I did a lot of African history and there is a period called the 'Partition of Africa' and you can probably Google the 'Berlin Conference'. So basically different parts of Africa were just randomly shared by European nations and then shared again when Germany lost the war. So like Nigeria used to be Nigeria and the Camerouns. Parts of Togo used to belong to Germany and all over the continent stuff like that. Then there werw the empires and trading that used to go on way back then so that the Jollof Rice that is the subject of the jollof wars between Ghana and Nigeria is actually the main dish of the Wolof people of Senegal who purportedly are cousins of the Yorubas, who are the jollof rice kings in Nigeria and truly weird connections but which boil down to people actually are often the same group but in different countries. So for instance almost all Camerounions from Bakassi get free college education in Nigeria cos they have absolutely the same names as the Bakassi people in Nigeria. Then the Senegalese in the Casamance, Gambians and parts of Guinea Bissau are the same people but in 3 different countries. Can't really help with the YT channels though but amy good history of Africa will lay this out.
Not too long, and language will no longer be a barrier, instant voice translation, where ever you are in the world. Can't wait. 👍
Person who lives in Kaliningrad: *exists*

Hey Drew, I'm afraid to tell you that there's mistake in your video, the Himalayas DO NOT divide India from Nepal, infact the lower lands of Nepal bordering with India are all plain lands!
Yeah can't believe he said that! 😳
Very true besides the part where you said plains.
Yes I'm kind of surprised that it's Drew who says that
@@humanscales1492 well, I am from Nepal and I bloody know it is !

Drew, I found about you accidentally. Was following a digital nomad named Matt from New York. I studied and spent a good deal of my life in New York. Now almost abandoned him and trying to complete all your videos while under lock down. I am a from Cyprus and traveling around the world since i am 16 (now 52) I visited 122 countries and lived and worked in 18 of them. I had the advantage of making use of both my professions. Teaching English and being a trained Chef.
You are doing great my friend, the straight forward way you are introducing the different cultures in different countries, traveling with Ringo Star"s "Peace" motto, highlighting what matters for those people, the hints you give to those traveling there. You make me want to return to many places i have been.
Don't stop man. You are born for this mission..
Another interesting borders: the hundreds of enclaves in India-Bangladesh, the towns and houses who are half Netherlands half Belgium and the Peñon de Vélez de la Gomera in Spain/Morocco (shortest land border in the world)
A number of those India-Bangladesh enclaves and exclaves are now resolved. The border is quite clean now. Well, as clean as can be after the Brits shat all over the sub-continent.
You mean Baarle Hertog en Baarle Nassau for Belgium and Netherlands.
And what about Ceuta and Melilla for Spain and Morocco?

Johnny Harris: Finally a worthy opponent.
There is a border between the Netherlands and Belgium in the middle of a small town dividing stores. Right now you can't get things from the Belgium side but you can from the Dutch side because of different governmental dispositions
I agree with you. This is one of the strangest in Europe but we have got one in Italy also. The city of Gorizia is right on the italo-slovenian border. A city square is half Italian and half slovenian. Definitely worths a visit as Gorizia is one of the most elegant cities in Italy.
There's Basel - Mulhouse airport too.
IIRC there is even a café that is partly in Belgium, partly in the Netherlands. If you sit in one part of the café there are other corona regulations than in the other side.
@AryanPeram that is really funny where is it?
@@bramvdberkmortel7822 The town is called Baarle-Hertog for the Belgium part and Baarle-Nassau for the Dutch part if I got this right. It is completely surrounded by the Netherlands, but has some bits of Belgium in it. And some of those beglium bits have in turn even smaller bits of the Netherlands in them. According to wikipedia, one of the borderlines actually goes straight through the middle of the wront door of one house, giving it two adresses, one in Belgium, one in the Netherlands.
@AryanPeram: It's all EU, no need for passports here.

The Indian borders were very interesting. North east especially to Bangladesh, Myanmar and China. Then the whole Kashmir situation was crazy! So many locals telling me different things.

World's most weird border:
1: *Me* *and* *my* *life*
I'm a guy 😂😂
Azerbaijan also borders Turkey.. ( Naxhivan)
Im surprised he didn't talk about it
HazyMan yea
Nepal is part of the Indian subcontinent. Himalayas are in northern Nepal not southern.
My Grandmother also live in Baku. We will every time welcome you in Baku. It's a nice city 👍🏼❤️
Drew, surprised you haven't mentioned the super interesting border conundrum between Baarle Hertog (Belgium) and Baarle Nassau (The Netherlands)! 😀
0:35 himalayas divide nepal and tibet not nepal and india
I'm glad you mentioned Moldova - Transnistria border 👍 😊
I straight up thought of Transnistria ,glad you mentioned it in the end
You should talk about the border between Slovakia, Austria and Hungary. They have a triple-sided bench which each side of the bench is part of the country so you can sit in the middle of the bench and be in 3 countries at the same time.
In my country the Netherlands there is a town in the middle off the country cald Baarle-Nassau and Its part of belgium for some reason.
I've accidentally crossed some borders without even going through immigration 🤣 not every country has a wall built around it apparently 😅😅😅
Yeah it's called the schegen area
@@mot9434 no man there are other places
@@mot9434 and its schengen not schegen
I guess you crossed the borders called the Schengen borders
@Stark Industries haha yeah! One time I even wandered into Nicaragua without technically immigrating 🤣 the customs officers were very confused when I tried to leave a few days later and had no entry stamps lol
Love from karachi broooo😍😍😍😍
Kaliningrad added to my list😍😍
And visit all of those Russian colonists lmao.
There’s also borders with weird panhandles like the Caprivi Strip. The DMZ is so interesting. I want to visit because I’ve always been fascinated by it and Korea’s history
My favorite land border is the one between Croatia and Montenegro, 2 years ago I biked accross the border and between getting my passport stamped in each country was 2km of “No Man’s Land” in which I was surrounded by the most stunning nature!
Hey Drew. Your videos mesmerize me. I can't stop watching them. I have only been to 18 countries but overseas 26 times. I am going to have my 10th travel visit to South Africa this year. I LOVE the Republick van Suid Afrika (Afrikaans). Greg Adams, Springfield, louisiana
0:53 2018, April 28, they actually signed a peace treaty that officially ended the war.
Drew: the borders between France and Germany make sense because of language
*ring ring* this is Alsace calling
You bad
Hello Nellie. How are you doing? Greetings 🇱🇷
Agreed ool
Sweden wanted the border between Sweden and Denmark to be a bridge, but Denmark wanted it to be a tunnel, so half of the border is a bridge and the other a tunnel.
Nice video. Which lens do you use for vlogging ?
Also, there is a tiny border with Turkey and Azerbaijan, yes even though it might not look like it, but there is an exclave of Azerbaijan, South of Armenia, and it shares more border with Armenia and Iran and also some tiny miles or kilometers with Turkey.
Love all of them from France.

"At one point in time, people from one community decided that an imaginary line should separate their culture, their identity and their traditions"
* laughs in African borders created by colonizers who completely ignored our cultures and traditions *
Antarctica is on my top list of places to visit!! There is something about that land that is interesting, mystical.
Hey Drew please note that Himalayan mountains separate India and Tibet. India and Nepal have same culture and are only separated by Terai forests

when u early and dont know what to comment
I live on the boarder .. I’ve lived here a part of my life and I’ve thought the same thing.. it was a weird concept to me.. I was like what makes me different from the people on the other side.. the border has been a great part of my life.. it’s shaped who I am.. I go to Mexico every weekend you can fly for cheap to like Cancun and come back
On which border? Mexico borders 3 countries
Crossing border is one of my favorite things about travel.
Not if you must do it twice a day and wait at least two hours on each
