I was sitting around watching this and my brother said, "the cuban prez is Miguel Díaz-Canel" and I yelled, "Spolier Alert!"
ouais je déteste ces moments
I thought it was Fidel Castro Ruz's brother.
Yeah, I thought it was Raul Castro.
@@FeyTheBin No, it's Diaz-Canal
Randomstuff that doesn’t sound like that’d happen
You won’t be able to fathom how long I’ve been waiting for a new episode in this series
TheLoneGunman26 3 months
Qrpo indeed
Bachir🥲
DR Congo changed their name from Zaire in an attempt to get JJ to talk about them a year earlier than if they had stayed in the Zs. And JJ let them get away with it!
And even talked about them before he got to the D's.
I can imagine how challenging this series is, but I have to say that it's one of my favorite on UA-cam. Giving every country somewhat equal weight really allows me to see the world in a new perspective. It's amazing how many interesting things are going on in this country that never make the American news.
Thanks JJ!
It's been really interesting for me, too. It makes me realize how difficult life is for people in a lot of countries.
For sure. It's especially helpful to this liberal struggling through the Trump years. As bad as he might be I'm so thankful that we have such robust democratic institutions that can keep him and others in check. We love to bitch about gridlock but I'm thankful our checks and balances keep us from going totally off the rails.
Reminds me of listening to Jonah Goldberg talk about his new book. Trying to imagine a better country is important but we also need to take time to appreciate how much worse things could be if our forefathers had made different choices and/or been dealt different circumstances.
Wouldn’t it be funny if Chad was lead by a guy named Chad?

Emojis on UA-cam? Are you twelve?

muh_crackhead His channel description is literally “ Mah name Jeff” I’m fucking done with this kid
As a Chilean, you pretty much nailed what's been happening here, I for one I'm sick of this back and forth between Bachelet and Piñera, it had never happened in the history of the country and I feel it makes us seem like a banana republic. At least Bachelet said she won't run for another run for another term, so next time we'll finally have a different person in office.
davyjones2001 la Bachelet no puede candidatearse de nuevo porque la constitución sólo deja ser presidente 2 veces, no es su elección
davyjones2001 maybe being a banana republic is a step up from being a fascist dictatorship which is what went before ...
A nice Putin-Medvedev system you have there Chile
Atleast you are not Italy. Here we hold the record of 66 legislation in 72 years. So the average legislation only lasts a little more than 1 year.
This was fine when the members of the various political parties all had very similar ideas and objectives and most of the time all legislations followed a similar plan, but now its a mess since it's a constant back and forth between different ideologies and ideas of how to run a nation. In 10 years we went from having liberals into power to having socialist democrats into power to having a shit load of technical legislations to go back to social democrats and now have a strange mix of ideologies with an extreme-right wing party into power together with a party without a clear ideology which seems to be leaning towards the left.
O and Q episodes are gonna be so long.....
Nah jk Oman and Qatar are the only nations with those letters
and Y
Not as long as the W and X episodes lel
@@x_8643 Unless he might mention Western Sarah
*Sahara
Get ready for the Us tho
Ć in Croatian is pronounced "itch". So it's Kolinda Grabar-Kitarovitch. :)
I know
And I think the most important leader is Prime Minister Plenkovic, that now hold the rotating EU Council Presidency
Joseph Kabila is the first gamer world leader, truly a milestone in gaming history!
Aww I was waiting for Czechia! 😪
Yes he forgot that country. My home country
Next vid. Hes not done the c's he does 11 a video
*Czech republic, and our leaders (president and prime minister) are assholes.
@@jirkas.9282 Czechia is the official name of the country
I hate the name Czechia. It will always be the Czech Republic
Xi is pronounced something similar to Shi, not Zhi.
It's weird
Zhi isn't pronounced like JJ pronounced it, either.
To be fair, he pronounces the majority of the names in this video wrong. (also, to be exact, the pronunciation of his name is ɕǐ tɕînpʰǐŋ in the IPA)
Please carry on, JJ. This is a fascinating review of who leads every country in the World in 2018. It is really good. There won't be anything else like it on the internet when you have finished. A special medal will be awarded to you when you reach Z.....
You should have your own segment on Geography Now
Yea. Only problem he already did the Canada episode. Maybe the next Canada election barby and jj could discuss
@@johnrobinson1264 I mean each video. Just like a 30 second to a minute segment
@@Luke-qr7pm maybe not every episode cause I don't think he can go to California Thursday
@@johnrobinson1264 he doesn't necessarily have to go to California. Just record the video and send it to barby
@@Luke-qr7pm oh yea. He could
I don't know if you saw my comment last week, but will you mention if leadership for a country changes? I haven't watched the full video yet, but I'm asking cause we (Australia) had a leadership spill last week and thus have a new Prime Minister. Either way, I love this series!
Haha, never knew about him changing the Chinese Constitution to let him be in office for life, great video.
It's a bit inaccurate, the amendment simply removes term limits on the office of president
That was pretty big news. Mainly because Trump joked about it right after it happened. "Wouldn't it be cool if we had a president for life?" For all we know, he could be -- he's fairly old and might not live to see a post-presidential life.
Hey, JJ, I've got a pronunciation tip (I wish I could have thought of something silly like you did for the flags, but alas, I could not). The ñ, like in the Chilean president's name, is pronounced like the n in annual, or Enya. So a name like Muñoz would be pronounced like 'moon-yos', if you ever come across the ñ again. Hope this helps!
And it originated when writing material was scarse. It represents a double "n". At one time other letters had that as well; only the ñ remains, although the "ll" also has a separate phonem. Years ago, I would read a comic book series Lloyd Llewellen, probably named to have all those double Ls.
Artillery only hoi4 pls
what the fuck is this reference?
Artillery only eu4 pls
cavalry only though
It's so weird. I was just watching a bunch of HoI4 playthroughs, noticed the reference for the first time, and now I'm suddenly seeing it all over the place, including here and Binkov's video about a the Sino-American trade war.
honestly same
J. J., I think we can trust the president of Cuba.
11:24 No need to call her by her last name(s). Just call her Kolinda. We all do :)
Yay you actually took my video suggestion!
Happy birthday!
Just was wondering, if you will include countries like Kosovo, South Ossetia, Western Sahara, . . . etc or just go through the recognized counties and won’t bother yourself 🤔
You have no idea how long I’ve wanted this
Eat pant
You forgot Cyprus and the Czech Republic!
he's obviously doing it in alphabetical order...... next video will probably be those countries
kylem1112 if he even makes another episode...
Please make a video about what you think about the United World Cup in 2026.
As an american i can say that when everybody here realizes what is actually going to happen in 2026 theyre going to be pretty upset. 2026 is america's 250th birthday and there are alot of people in the heartland and the rocky mountain region who are going to think its "disrespectful" that a forgien game is being played on american soil and the final is most likely going to be played around the 4th of july. There is also the issue of stadium building, renovation and a bunch of people getting drunk at all hours of the day and night for 6 weeks straight. We tried getting the winter olympics here in 1976 for the bicentennial but the people of denver colorado rejected it in a refrendum. The only reason why the 1994 world cup came here is because we played them in football stadiums that didnt need renovations and bypassed the need for refrendums.
As a foreigner, we guys are pretty pissed off that you guys got the bid (no offense) because we like calling it football and in the 2026 world cup, it will be referred to as 'soccer'. You might very well know that the USA is not exactly well-known for respecting football (our kind).
@@RandomStuffTutorials Well, hopefully they put more games in mexico and canada than in the US. Personally I love the world cup, its one of the rare times where humanity parties together and tries not to kill each other.(the irish fans are my favorite) Hopefully with it being our 250th birthday americans will try and not be dicks but we are going to have to wait and see.
Sominboy27 I predict that nobody will be upset, nobody will be offended, nobody will find it disrespectful, but people will as usual make fun of soccer and talk a lot about how they don’t care.
Would you be able to mention any changes in world leaders? Australia recently got a new prime minister because of an internal party coup and that might be an interesting thing to mention in a video
As a Croatian I'd say that you probably should have spoken about our prime minister Andrej Plenković since kolinda as a president holds no real power and is more of a figurehead like the Queen in the UK but elected ( which now that i think about it is a pretty weird sistem ). Our prime minister is also a conservative who managed to form a goverment after the last one held a snap election (which was becouse of a deadlock thanks to a Third party that couldn't make up it's mind ). He is the most Popular politician in the country despite constantly low approval ratings ( last time I saw it was like 35%-ish) becouse of the opposition's ineptitude. We got into a scandal when our biggest company got into big trouble and the government took over ( despite it being unconstitutional ) later the CEO fled the country and we allowed it back into the market. It's better now but it hurt our already weak economy
actually, the queen of the UK has power too, the "she doesn't have power" was a myth created by the Americans to make themselves feel better about how their best ally isn't a democrat
I can't wait for the videos on O and Q
You’d think that by the time this series is complete, a lot of these leaders will have changed
11:11 Drew Durnil approves
Hey be careful, couple of "abouts" slipped in most of your trademark "aboots".
I’ve been waiting for the U.K. but I’ll come back 2077 for that lol
Hopefully we'll have a different PM by then
NarbacZif be careful what you wish for
@@Marcus51090 I know exactly what I'm wishing for
Im waiting for zimbabwe
You literally went through 44 countries in less than three months!
For Geography Now, that took a year and a half!
Lol
This looks to be a lot of work, but we appreciate it. Very entertaining and informative. Thanks for putting in the effort JJ!
My favorite series is back ! Yay
As a Cuban-Canadian, I was very pleased with how you explained Cuba's situation. Nothing had changed, it's the same crap as always.
This is still my favorite series!
Heads up for future episodes... "č" and "ć" are pronounced "Ch". Might help when you get to Serbia, Montenegro and so on.
Can't wait for X.
boutta be lit
Ki Adi Meme-di Xanth has a king.
There is not a Latin american supreme court. It is call "Corte interamericana de Derechos Humanos" which translates as Interamerican Court for Human Rigths, and its not for Latin americans exclusively, its for member countries of the OEA (but you have to opt in)
Will you be doing update episodes when new leaders are installed like how Australia now has a new prime minister?
Do you purposefully mispronounce French words and names to annoy Quebecers or are they just mistakes because the language is worthless?
Maybe that's because he is just a normal Anglophone Canadian who doesn't want to go out of his way say them correctly
raheem humphreys Do québécois feel bad about it ?
Can't it be both?
Couldn’t you just support the man for his great content?
JJ I think felt that he has to describe the country called Ivory Coast, as it has always been called in English since the days of the French Empire, 'Cote d'Ivoire'. The country's ruler has for some reason decreed that the English version of the name is not to be used, even though it is a recognised geographical name in English. Some pressure from President Macron and the 'Francophonie' secretariat, perhaps. Perhaps the US State Department will ignore this and continue to use the English-language name. Germany does not tell the English-speaking world that they must from now on call the country 'Deutschland'......
I wonder how many of these people will still be leading their countries when the series is done
It is an awesome series, J.J , I am really looking forward to your new world leader videos.
This is such a great series, well done!
Colombia's previous government wasn't quite liberal. I'd say it was centrist at most. Santos (the previous president) was actually the defense secretary guy for Uribe!
Is that guitar riff you use during transitions from something? It sounds so familiar
Côte D’Ivoire (Coat Divwahr)
for someone in some agreement with people who think there’s French snootiness, and some contemp for KeBECK, I sure do know a lot of French
It’s gonna tale a lifetime before you get to my country 😭
I love this series so much this has made my day
When speaking of politics in the Comoros Islands; don't forget to mention Bob Dinar.
Your videos are always fascinating and brilliant, well done
j.j please continue this series because it's amazing and to tell the truth i just love it ,so please continue your series PLEASE!!!!!!!!
How does that guy even get internet on his ps4 and what dies he play?
I would love if that true
just the president of DR Congo teaming up with you lol
Nils Deichert He’s no good as a teammate because every time he kills someone he spends an hour teabagging them.
I'd just like to point out, that none of the variations of the letter "c" are pronounced as k in Slavic languages
This series is very fun to watch. Keep it up, J.J.!
OMG ITS BEEN DO LONGGGG MOREE
You agree cus you love us!! Hahaha I love these videos im waiting on Mexico lol and you missed Canada! For unusual viewers
I have a feeling that D and E will share the same video.
0 Dislikes.
That's JJ
Yeah I’ve been waiting for part 4 lol I love your videos
I think you're brilliant and keep it up!
Winnie the Pooh.
THIS IS THE CHINESE ARMY, PUT YOUR FUCKING HANDS UP 🔫

beware,they are looking for you
krz drz a=-3
Finally! I love this series!
i’ve been WAITING
11:17 the president of Croatia though is just the head of state. The prime minister is the one with the power in Croatia.
What if you did a video or more than 1 video about the national animal and national flower etc of the worlds countries
Anyone else see the countryballs of Germany in the background?
Morning, JJ
Hey, just so you know for a later video, ć is pronounced like a ch.
You should carry this on
Waiting for this
Did anyone notice the misspelling of Cote D'Ivoire at 9:58?
JJ please run for Parliament.
Great Wolf of what
Don't you love it when Westerners pronounce Slavic names
Can you make more of these videos I just want to see Ethiopia.
A friend of mine in 5/6th grade is a relation of Alvaro Uribe. They own a boot store in California.
Hey JJ you should do a video on Sir John A Macdonald and the resent removal of many of his statues.
JJ, Joseph Kabila is running for a new term apparently.
How can you not correctly pronounce "Xi"? It's just like the way English speakers say "she".
Ya because everyone knows pinyin?
Why Chinese cannot pronounce “R” correctly? Go ask a language teacher this. 😉
Huge misconception; Chinese language actually has R sound. Japanese however, does not.
@@hxhuang9306 Japanese does have an r sound, you must be thinking of l.
Oh, right.
Love your videos
@jj_mcullough keep doing vids like this man
IS THAT A KILROY PLUSH IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER IF SO LINK IT I NEED IT
When you played the clip of Croatia’s president speaking, I got confused at first because I thought it was a voiceover translation
The image you used was of one of the right wing paramilitaries in the Columbian conflict, the pro-government paramilitaries were prolific drug runners whilst the FARC has had a long issue with funding much like their allies in mexico
So JJ, what do you think about the electoral reform vote that is coming up in BC?
Against.
The Prime Minister is the executive head of state in Croatia.
Underrated channel
can you do a dictators of the world? not where you do EVERY dictator but recent dictators from maybe 1900s and onward?
There's so many!
it was worth a shot lol
I love these videos,even as a liberal,but can you please work on your Español and Français pronounciations?
13:38 because you love us😊
Duque’s English is better than my doctor’s
11:15 i died
I looked up the President of Croatia I was surprised to find out she is 50 she looks a lot younger than that.
Tried looking up the "Latin American supreme court", found pictures of Sonya Sotomayor instead. Anybody care to help?
Why is the snes controller on the background is weird
Clearly someone has forgotten all of their Core French. The "ou" in front of a bowel is W sound, so his name is pronounced Wattara.
Nice one like always. Well i miss your mustache so badly.
i was waiting for cyprus
Want a idea for an episode?:
"The origin of the name Canada"
Positive Goldnaz It means “it’s nothing” in Portuguese.
Croatia is run by a soccer mom. Awesome!
