Madrid is in the Mediterranean. London is in the Midlands. I think everyone has noticed the rest.
Johannesburg in Zimbabwe, interesting🥴🤣
He put it where Harare is meant to be 😂😂😂
1:38 i swear more than half of the cities are in the wrong spot
WHERE DID BRO PUT BEIJING
Why is Johannesburg in Zimbabwe?? Warsaw in Ukraine? Jakarta on Sumatra? Chicago..? Moscow? Mumbai? ok this map is just weird
@@maxsmith8196 Where do you think Chicago should be located on his map?
@@THE_bchat On the other side of lake Michigan, but I guess it's better than putting Dubai in Iran..
Maps and Geography channel BTW
@@maxsmith8196it most likely has to do with where the lines are located, like the Warsaw line completely covers most of Poland
imagine having anywhere on earth to settle and you choose fr*nce
Real
There are 3 major international economic regions. North America, Europe, and East Asia, (becoming Asia more broadly now and the largest likely in the future). NCY dominates North America, London dominate Europe, but in Asia there is no dominant city, hence why there are many cities there in the Alpha+ range but none in the Alpha++, and why the NA and EU regions don't have many Alpha+ cities because of the dominance of NCY and LON in those areas, especially NYC in NA which is the Number 1 city realistically in the world.
India had a fertility rate of 2.14 in 2023. Within a few years it might fall below replacement rate. The fundamental flaw in many population predictions is that the models assume that the fertility rate will not continue decreasing at the same amount each year as previous decades, but magically flattens out. I think a more correct prediction would be that it flattens out at about 1 child per woman. Assuming 10 billion people in 2100, 3 generations per century, 1 child per woman and constant average average life expectancy, the planet will have 1.25 billion people in 2200, 156 millions in 2300, 19.5 millions in 2400, and 2.4 millions in 2500. Exponential calculation is fun!
Some new religion or ideology will sweep over the depopulating regions and the fertility rate will go much up under the new system, so the population will not possibly fall that much globally for such a long time. Simple Natural selection will enforce this. Any society/culture/religion that doesn't have kids will just be replaced.
No sigma city 😔
Sigma is my favourite Filipino city
@@Jumptohistory nobody is laughing
Incel city

UK being a 3rd world country with OP capital 😂
Depressingly accurate lol
Having spent time in numerous 3rd world countries I can assure you that the UK is in no way a 3rd world country. Don't believe the MSM narrative. I live in the north of England and whilst it is not wealthy in the way that London is, where my daughter lives and I have lived previously, there are lots of people with money here and it is a million miles from being a 3rd world country.
@@ibx2cat No it isn't, get real. Please see my reply to @WaripoloW
All of these maps point to China being the next superpower: giant population, huge economic importance to the world, technologically developed cities
You mean the country that is set to start halving or worse in population every single generation moving forwards? If it weren't for that you would probably be right, but it is almost certainly going to be in steep decline within 1 and especially 2 generations time if the fertility rate doesn't go up enormously.
@@ssssaa2 the population shrink is a huge problem but no doubt the economy is strong enough to accommodate for an aging population. The country's shifting its objectives to be less reliant on a large workforce anyway with more focus on highly educated sectors like the technology industry.
Also... even with decline, they are still going to remain hugely populated compared to other countries
@@ssssaa2 Even the most dire predictions have China's population halving by the year 2100. And that still puts China's population at double that of the US. Keep in mind countries like Japan, Germany and Italy have been stuck in extreme low fertility for the last 40 years. They are still there and kicking. China is many times larger.
@@pineapplesareyummy6352 The developed world got rich before it gets old. China is getting old before it gets as rich as the developed world, so that will never happen. Big difference.
@@randallgvideos China is already quite a prosperous country. If you didn't know that, go there and take a look some time.
Yep, that city on Kamchatka Peninsula definitely dominate global businesses... 😅
Haven’t been this early for a 2cat video in a while
..."we live in the biggest city in South America.." I bet no-one was expecting an Os Mutantes quote today!
1:35 why is joburg in zimbabwe 💀💀
Yeah I was like with WTF!
London's weird cause despite technology and politics it remains the gateway to Europe. its also perfectly located between usa and Asia.
Well, there is the fact that China is the largest manufacturer and exporter in the world, by far, so it would make sense it has the most cities that "dominate global business". If I recall, seven of the world's top 10 busiest ports were in China (the remainder, if I recall, were Singapore, Busan and L.A.)
I would love a video about the specific circumstances that explain why Chicago didnt end up a global city! I'm from there and dont get what happened to us
No port on the ocean.
GAWC rankings disrespect certain cities that are ultra technical hubs such as SF Bay and Houston.
what about orimattila, finland?
Never heard of it
Is that where Santa sources his Raindeer?
A true megalopolis
What about North Ridgeville, Ohio USA?
If feel like his talking is closer to being completely circular in this video than ever.
Surprised that Melbourne wasn’t in the top 10 of 1900
this map is literally the definition of a copy of a copy
cities in oceans go brrr
even in france
who will drop off this list in the next 50 years - in the next 75?
0:23 it’s just a image of a gigachad. Not worth trying to pause and find
Why did you mention that most of the aplha cities are near the coast? Seatrade is what mades these cities big and important.
SINGAPORE MENTIONED 🗣🗣
Being ALpha ++ doesn't mean that things are better. I haven't been to NY, but in London the impression I got that everything is very commercial, franchised, globalized, boring. There's no character to anything and nothing exceptional that sticks out. It probably exists, but it's very expensive and not for the common man. These places are for very rich elite and the rest has to content itself with terrible choices. Life is much better in other places.
Nah, London has spaces that have some of the most character I've ever been to, you just have to go a bit outside the city centre. Shoreditch, Angel, Brixton, Hackney - all of those are still mostly not commercialised and differ a lot from what you see in the West End.
Same applies to Tokyo and NYC really, not to mention that each of the large cities has its own character even in the commercialised touristy spots.
London probably has more history than anyother city on Earth - amazing place
@@mrfrisky6501 I doubt that.
@@holygooff feel free to name a city with more historical sites & buildings that are maintained like they are in London?
@@mrfrisky6501 most cities outside of the uk/USA?
London is important at the expense of the rest of the uk.
London and New York are the most integrated cities according to the GaWC. That's interesting I wonder what they could ever mean by that, Not like I personally remember what London was like 20 years compared to now. I can't even find the words to describe what has happened to those 2 cities man, If your stating it for posterity irony sake then ok that is kind of funny.
why are non of the cities on the map in the correct location. Like you have put amsterdam near berlin, Madrid is underwater. Jakarta in in sumart, London is in birmginham, Dubai in iran and joberg in zimbabwe lol
amsterdam in the middle of germany
Madrid Point is in Barcelona 😂
Madrid in Valencia, WTF...

7:19 how does LA have a bigger population then londen or paris, thats just bull shit
Top 4 Alpha cities:
1) NY city
2) London
3) Paris
4) Tokyo
London gets to use the country it's in as an economic heat-sink too (until they force brexit on London, ffs).
Half of the largest companies in the world are from or near San Francisco. It alone beats the 10 you mentioned, even if they were combined.
I don't understand why Dubai is there on that list! Its population is transit and it is basically Miami/ Las Vegas for the Middle East nothing special really
It's a big transport hub
@@sahanadeshmukh695 Suez Canal is bigger and it's not on that list
Taxes is a biggest thing to consider.
And its not wise to disregard population, China, India and Africa(Nigeria and other populated cities), will take over gradualy as they develope and economy grows.
