Estonia is a best neighbor ever! Greetings from Latvia!
Jānis Ivanovs Thank you!
Jānis Ivanovs
Please answer honestly.
Do you think why Latvia and Lithuania does not want Estonia to be Nordic and only Baltic because they do not want us(Estonia) to stop being Baltic in any way ?
@@KrK-EST I'm lithuanian and I think we want you to be Baltic because we feel like youll forget us and wont consider us equal anymore. I've never been to Estonia but from what I heard you guys are awesome . And Lithuania had a little war with nordic countries so you know... kinda akward cuz we won. :P
But...YOUR LANGUEGE IS THE EXACT SAME AS Lithuanias I'm from the UK BTW.
I
"We drink ourselves to death, its sad." *Barbie laughs.
I knew he was f*cked up!
@@pelletrouge3032 Thanks. I guess I typically mostly watch videos that I have something to say about. 😅
I lived with an Estonian when I lived in NYC and sometimes his friends would come over from Estonia to visit NYC. They were some of the nicest and heaviest drinking people I have ever met.
Rachel Arnold lmao
lmao did you join the drinking ?
Of course welcome to eastern European men school
True, but the funniest thing is many of us do not touch alcohol at all. XD
This means the ones who do actually drink a lot more than the statistics say. ;)
this sounds accurate.
kama (traditional food in Estonia) means drugs (illegal ones) in Finnish as a slang word.
It can also mean that in estonian however it's not often used.
We eat drugs for breakfast, lunch and supper :D
wow...
Kama also just means stuff, too
And cama (pronounced the same) means bed in Spanish XD
You had me at loneliness. I want to move to Estonia.
Denoi Zewan lmao
Then come to Tallinn and visit me!
We can give you a tour and some good places to visit (not only nature parks or tourism traps, but good food places as well ). :)
Estonians seem dull and not polite from the outside as we do not smile that much but actually we are nice and helpful people :)
If you need any help just ask a random Estonian :) (just remember ask someone who is not in a hurry ;) )
Lies
You're not the only one.
Am I the only one who thinks Estonia has badass flag?
No your not the only one and I'm from Lithuania.
You actually see the flag in the wild -- sky is blue, forests are black and the ground is white (snow).
No, he's not wrong, you can literally see the flag colours during winter, but yes the meaning is different
Sky
Forest
Snow
LennyG you're right :D
Surprise! Special new video you didn't see coming! Remember Artur from the research video? Well I actually got to meet up with him! Let's talk to a REAL Estonian shall we? Enjoy! #Estonia #Europe
Estonia is one of my favorite countries!
Greetings from Finland!
That is everything you need to know about finlands friends. estonia. and maybe nordics, but, maybe even them not.
Kiitos! ;)
if you are in Estonia you should go find +Life of Boris
Can we see you do a video where you talk to a Banditerran?
"What do you think of Latvia and Lithuania?"
>Speaks of Latvia and Finland
q_q
Lithuania? What's that? You mean Poland?
What do Estonians think of Lithuanians???
ifacro Lame bait.
ifacro that's a country next to Poland 😂
RᴀɪɴDᴇᴠᴏᴜʀ yea, that was kinda rude ;v;
Estonia basically to finland what denmark is to sweden:
That weird little brother in the south that cant pronounce our language properly.
LPS Talia53 no i meant estonian is so close to finnish, it kinda sounds like mispronounced finnish. your english is great btw
Kalkaanuslag Im finnish and i get that joke x'D
Kalkaanuslag ... really?
U sound like us when drunk
No offense
It's like Slovakia & Czechia to Poland :D
as an estonian I like estonia because of the nature and that people are not annoying. i feel totally free here.
Don't know why you guys are surprised about him not mentioning what he thinks about Lithuania cause it isn't a neighbouring country really. Cause when we Lithuanians talk about other countries we mainly talk about Poland, Latvia, Russia and sometimes Belarus, never heard anyone in Lithuania talk about Estonia or Estonians 😅I suppose it's the same for Estonians...
@@PsyMakeUFly no I will tell you what we're good at
We're good at basket ball
WE'RE good at suicide
And we're good at um... Cheap Vodka?
In finnish "kama" is what you would call your drugs. So that's some national food you got there :D a prime example of how words mean different things.
I have started following Artur since the start of the full scale invasion of Ukraine. This interview was great.
If he can get Boris on his Estonia vid it'd be amazing
Liam Veverka omg that would be hilarious!
Boris?
eksiarvamus Life of Boris, a UA-camr who lives in Estonia. Check him out if you want.
life is boris, check it on yt
Liam Veverka Lives in Estonia =/= Estonian though.
Im lonely... I think Estonia is a good place for me.
better find a gf
A gf eh?
Must Have Time For Her Every Single Day...
Buy Her Anything With My Money...
Cheating Can Be Unforgettable...
Have No Privacy Space...
Can No Longer Gaming For 5 Hours...
Are you like 12?
***** I literary gaming for 5-6 hours every weekend.
Thats a low as hell number bro, you need to get your game face on my so far top play time in saturday and sunday is like 22 hours
Latvia has cheaper alcohol?? I need to make a complaint to all the cruiseliners, they're taking us to the wrong country!! Cheers from F-land ;)
Cheapest way to meet jesus
I was just going to say. He made a horrible error that can cause huge damage to Estonian tourism if this info spreads ;)
That ain't really a concern up here :p
Since Estonia increased the tax on liquor, alcohol has become cheaper in Latvia indeed. Latvian border towns now get a boost in sales of alcoholic drinks and lots of specialised liquor shops have opened along the border of LV and EE
Taxes are friendlier in Latvia, alcohol is cheaper and so is the fuel - all Estonians need to move to Latvia.
We love you little brother(and your cheap alcohol), sincerely yours, Finland
Hey Estonia, Ireland called. Wants to hang out.
I'm irish
Conor wilson me too
I'm from donegal

Artur, you didn't say anything about Lithuania, now we're jelous (on the other hand we are not called six-toes, so that's good).
Ye what do Estonians think of Lithuanians?????
We don't think anything bad of you. Lithuania is quite far away and most Estonians don't have much contact with them. The only thing that I can recall is that if we travel to Lithuania we are mostly expected to speak Russian but I actually know very few people who speak Russian.
Lithuania pays more attention to us Poland people
What lithuanians think of Estonians : be nordic pls.
As a half-Estonian, I am just so happy you're paying so much attention to the country! :) Keep it up.
I can confirm that I have six toes.Also all the Baltic countries have the one sport theyre best at.Latvia has Ice hockey,Lithuania has basketball,Estonia has athletics.
But why can't Latvia be better at hockey? If you guys love it so much, why are there so few registered players and so little success?
Because Its a small country of about 1.5 million people. and we still compete with larger countries like Norway,Austria,France sometimes we even manage to beat a really good team.Such as Sweden and Slovakia.
Latvian Atheist But in 1.5 million people there's still potential for much more than 5000 or so registered players. Finland has about 5.5 million people and 75000 registered players.
Latvian Atheist I was actually really surprised to find that there are more football players (about 140 000) than ice hockey players. And our national team is quite horrible too.
Latvian Atheist Yeah, if I remember correctly you also beat Finland in Sochi, or was it some World Championships. Anyway, hopefully now that Zlatan won't play for Sweden anymore Sweden will be just as bad as the rest of us up here in the North.
Ayy im from Estonia and i know this guy hes great
estonians also pronounce the words differently. they sound like they get surprised at the end of the word.
Yeah there are some interesting differences if you disregard the vocabulary. Estonian is the only Finnic language to have lost vocal harmony, so the words can change in every possible way. Colloquial Estonian also drops a lot of word endings, like "kolmkümmend" (30) becomes "kolgend".
same thing in finnish.
kolmekymmentä (30) becomes kolkyt in spoken finnish
OK, the numbers are the most similar thing about the two languages though :D
i love Estonia and Estonian people ,wish to know people and have friends from the nation that singing itself out .and i wish Egyptian people know about Estonia.
Love this video. Coolest Estonian I think is singer songwriter Kerli Koiv!! Because of her I have become so fascinated with this beautiful country. Can't wait to visit next Spring!
6:15 Finland is (obviously) the same way with the sadness. Even, if you look at many of our ancient lullabies, they were originally burial/mourning songs for dead children; back, when infant mortality rates were soaring. One famous lullaby, sung even to my generation of 1990’s kids (myself included), actually laments the fact that a child should be born to such a poor, frozen, foodless land, with no father or mother, no-one to take care of them, and that they would be better off in _”Tuonela”_ (”Underworld”), a.k.a. Dead; and that’s a lullaby sung to children to lull them to sleep. Just let that sink in. Also, one of our most popular Christmas songs *_(NOT_* Christmas carols; Christmas songs) is _”Varpunen jouluaamuna”_ (”Sparrow on Christmas Morning”), which was originally a comfort poem, written by Zacharias Topelius to his daughter, after her baby brother passed away as a small child. The poem was about telling his daughter that her baby brother’s spirit, his soul, lives on in a sparrow; and that is one of, if not *_THE MOST_* popular, Christmas songs in Finland. Think about that, all you Americans and Europeans, and everyone, who’s used to Christmas being this all-happy holiday. 🇫🇮
Hold up you're telling me there's an Estonia research video, an Estonian interview video, the official Estonia video coming up and the Estonian flag video also coming up? 🤔
sure does feel good to be an estonian
Plus he's going to do a Geography More episode where he talks about all the stuff he didn't cover in the official video, PLUS if you check out the Paul Barbato channel, he actually WENT to Estonia, and if he goes there again he might do a Geography Go episode on it.
I am pretty sure estonian government gave him money to promote estonia in youtube =DDD
you forgot about the Geography Go episode, where he went to Estonia and Finland.
also he went there in a video too!
Artur does look better now... he is really intelligent
E-sports player Puppey is from Estonia and very famous on the very specific DotA 2 pro-scene hahaha
I'm from Finland and I can really realate to the sadness and loving being by yourself :d I guess there same mentality in both countries :p
Two of my favorite UA-camrs together! Cool!
This is a fake Artur, he smiled :P
So glad you brought him back on, I really liked his video that you added :) His content is quite fun - the stuff that I could understand at least :P
His forehead is almost as long as jacksfilms
Well, the three tallest countries are the Dutch, the Latvians and the Estonians ;)
***** Who cares? The average matters.
Hello!
hi lad
Ayyy lmao
Estonia's flag Would be my favorite flag on this planet.
Why?
I just love each of every color it has.
Love from Indonesia
im estonian and ive been a huge fan of artur since 2012 and shoot its a huge surprise to see him here
For me, the coolest thing about Estonia is the language; yes, it is similar to Finnish, but the way the words look is something unique. Also the fact that they are so tech savvy is nice too.
The collab we never expected
Funny, I'm from Spain, and even today some people go to Portugal, or Andorra to buy cheaper things. Can't wait for the Estonia video, love you guys!
and we go to spain to get petrol!
I swear i see your comments every single barby videos. And you always talk about Spain...
u2
happens in republic of ireland & northern Ireland all the time
it happens in Brazil and other Latin countryes
I'm from the US, and I'm pretty much in love with Estonia and I love this so much. I wish there were more videos about Estonia and more and better places to learn Estonian.
An Estonian! Glad you decided to do this video
Glad to see Arvo Pärt get a mention. Also on the theme of Estonian music, I have very fond memories of a concert by Heinavanker.
Yes, I can confirm, Latvians do have 6 toes
As an introvert, I think Estonia is for me. The loneliness speaks so well :D
Arturi inglise keel tho
Ma arvasin et ma olen ainus eestlane kes seda videot vaatab
@@triinvalba8047 Mä ymmärsin koko lauseen!😂🇫🇮
Try to do this with every country, great video!
Great to see you might have a new friend.
this was a great and edutaining video. hopefully you can find more enthusiastic friends to come in and help with video's like this.
perfect timing for this video. i am headed to Tallinn next week
Cool, if you want a tour guide or a drinking buddy, just let me know! :)
i will arrive right at midnight on the 7th. I will stay in tge old town
Holy fuck it’s Artur! Love em’! He’s my favorite UA-camr.
The "emo" thing could of been worded a little better, its clam and relaxing. =p
You can recharge being here, no real metropolitan hustle and everything important in the capital center is just a walk away.
As a Estonian I think the most attractive quality of the whole region of Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia is the clash of eras and cultures. You have a mix of Soviet, Western, medieval, brought in style of Lutheran, Orthodox etc. Basically a whole lot of styles in a small compact area.
I semi-love how entire areas are recycled, like the region of old Soviet factories that were abandoned in Tallinn suddenly propped up as a "hipster heaven" of new mini shopping malls, cafes and living areas being built inside the husks of old factory buildings. Makes it kind of a real life cyberpunk type of situation of "abandoned tech" being used for a new purpose.
Thats so cool that you actually got to meet the guy who you watched a vid of in the Researching video :D So far Estonia seems to be a "romantically melancholic" country in my eyes.
Speaking of the researching stuff, while I really like the concept of these videos I noticed that 2 are already taken down and the Estonia one, as you mentioned, also got a copyright claim. It's probably not the best idea to watch and show random UA-cam videos, although this is the basic concept of React channels.
The language understanding difference is I think because Estonians talk faster than Finns.
And Estonians drop word endings more.
Cool! I can't wait for the Estonia video! :D
emostonia
and Hungary is Hungry and Turkey is a food HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA VERY FUNNY
I love European food. and im Hungary. So i Russia to the fridge to check if there is food. I found Turkey. so i decide to eat Turkey.
+Shafwan Dito in portuguese and spanish Peru means a kind of turkey too.
***** oi tere eestlane
very funny.. I'm from estonia
Hello! I'm Estonian, and that's cool that you made video about him! :D
Tere! Ma olen Eestist pärit ja see on lahe, et sa tegid temast video! :D
Lithuanians joke about estonians that they are very slow people. Something like, they get what u asked only few mins later, etc.
but that's actually a fact. Finns too
The further north you go, the slower people talk and act. It makes sense if you think about it...conservation of energy and all.
True. Greenlandic people talk so slow...
*****
The Russian version goes something like "fast Estonian boys". Saw it on a ad billboard in Estonia, it was in Russian so it could be considered to be offensive. Russians are known to get drunk and stab each other, imagine if an ad read "relaxing drinking buddies" with pics of Russians.
The saying by Russians is "hot Estonian guys".
You should make episodes like this more often :)
I liked this video better than the other one :)
you have to do such a video with bulgarian person ! Please and you also should visit Bulgaria ! :D :)))) Sunny beach baby! lol
Estonia, "It hurts so good." Lol
Great video, it's interesting to know about other nations and their culture.
I love your channel so much. I learned so much and you present everything in a very authentic and interesting way.
Favourite UA-cam Channel
why did you get a copy right claim?
Because UA-cam
no reason. Somebody reported his video and system bot blocked the video. It happens a lot on yt
+Floobs Your pic alone is a good enough reason
how did he resolve the issue?
that was great. Can you do videos like that on every country you cover?
Funny thing: Kama is finnish slang for drugs.
Awesome special episode! ;-D
Whoa he looks different
I watch both of these guys and I never new they met in real life. This is amazing
I had a flatmate from Estonia but she only spoke Russian (and English) she seemed to consider herself more Russian then Estonian.
Almost 40% of population of Estonia are ethnic Russians who have nothing in common with Estonia or Estonian culture. Its a result of Stalin policy. He sent millions of Russians to Baltic states to colonize it.
40%?? cmon dude, it's like 25%. Check your facts
Priit Toomingas there are also Russians without any citizenship. Nobody REALLY knows how many are there because they are unregistered especially in Virumaa area.
we know how many there are, the have the permission to live here and work so we know they are here and are counted
Both incorrect. The people who speak Russian in general hovers around 60% of the population. The actual Russian population (disregarding Ukrainians, Belarusians, and other Russian-speaking people) is around 25-30% registered, and an additional few percentages who have not received citizenship. So around 33%. About half of Riga is Russophone.
I'm a big fan of Artur
Varulven from Metsatöll said "No other countries have such good researchers of traditional culture and folklore than among oppressed peoples".
Is Metsatöll big in Estonia? I've always wondered
metsatöll is well known in estonia
kallutibu Nice. I like them a lot
ifacro
Really?
Metsatöll is a great band! And actually Finland has the biggest folklore archieves in the world. Finns started collecting folklore when we were still under Russian rule and why we actually succeeded to collect so much was because the country was so remote and modernized late (so oral traditions were still alive).
zulieh Yeah, I'm familiar with several pieces of Finnish folklore, I can't name them though , Finnish words are hard (except for Säkkijärven and Ievan polkkas which are the most famous) Polkka/Metal bands like Korpiklaani and Finntroll (even though they sing in Swedish) introduced me to Finnish folklore.
Actually there is a special connection between Finland and Argentina (where I'm from), a lot of Argentinians are interested in Finnish folk metal for some reason and Tarja Turunen even lives here.
Please do a sequel of this video with Life of Boris.
I believe he's Russian not Estonian, right? He might live in Estonia but that doesn't mean he's automatically Estonian.
That´s a country thousands miles different from mine. I´ll keep it that in mind. "Estonia, don´t go, or die of loniless"
Only during the winter though, when the only light you see is artificial street lamps that run 24/7, streets are empty and atmosphere is depressing. Summer is light with 18-24h daylight and an uplifting atmosphere.
I love Estonia, Bhutan, Kasachstan and Austria.
Great Video.
Best regards from Austria.
*Kazakhstan
+scorpioninpink thanks. in german its Kasachstan XD
The saddest thing: Norwegians come to Finland to buy alcohol.
Althought I think mostly some fancy stuff their monopoly prices even more steeply. We have this weird thing going that comparatively fancy liquor doesn't cost that much more than the retgut. This is partly due tax reasons and also different monopoly pricing policy.
Swedish come to Poland by boat to buy loads of alcohol.
Going to Finland from Norway does't seem too practical.
Kosta M.
This has happened in small scale from Northern Norway to Northern Finland, Like Tromsø to Kilpisjärvi.
Tanooki100 That makes sense, since going from Oslo or similar to Helsinki would take forever.
SantomPh the borders are not very strict between nordics, i heard of a family once that got lost and accidentally ended up in sweden.
I lived in estonia but now in finnland and estonia is very small country but very social its a very good country
He speaks of our country as if we were recluses, which is not true at all. Estonians have opened up so much in the last 20 years, we do watch what we say, but most of the youth in our contry are really accepting towards new people. The partying is true amongst millenials and people in mid-life crisis, but it's not that different from other countries. And vodka is not an Estonian national drink, it's Russian.
I am Estonian-Russian myself and it is quite fascinating to see how my small country is mentioned in Internet haha. Though this guy didn't really described the best things about Estonia :( ( it has more than that I mean!)
It is believed that Estonia has the most beautiful women in the world :D
Looking at your picture, they could be right :D
they are because they have harsh competition for men ;)... they all need to be pretty ;)
Artur is adorable. I'm shipping you two as a comedic buddy duo.
*Life of Boris !!*
EpicHD cheeki breeki
He's Russian not Estonian
Polish
Awesome. Mahalo for sharing.
I love both channels
is anyone estonian here?
anyway i am
marie paate Ma olen.
Some words and phrases are actually interchangeable in Estonian and Finnish, they mean exactly the same things. Most famous Estonians would be Johann Urb (played Leon Kennedy in Resident Evil), Mena Suvari (Her father was an Estonian psychiatrist Ando Süvari), supermodel Carmen Kass, former wrc driver Markko Märtin etc.
Yeah but you don't have... KRISTAPS PORZIŅĢIS :D
Estonians sound like the emo's of the world haha I love it
Cool vid guys keep em coming
Tad mums ir lēts alkohols :D
Vaine? Tas gan smieklīgi
I am estonian awesome that someone likes Estonia and makes some videos about this country!
Estonia > Latvia
Lithuania>Estonia
+Edvnas rotMG never been to lithuania before but i would guess not
#MemeLivesMatter i've never been to estonia either but it is better than in latvia
Argentina < Estonia :v
PD: I'm Latin American. xD
+TarksTV Latvia really give the soviet feels tbh, but their beaches are really fricking cool.
The colors of the Estonian flag represent 3 things
Blue for the beautiful sky
Black for the dark history
White for the snow and the pureness of Estonians
Is Estonia a first world country?
yesss of course
yes
Nope, all former Soviet countries are 2nd world.
2nd
Well, to put in real life terms... it might not be fist world but it's a country where a person with average income can easily afford to have an iPhone
I just finished watched Athur react to " Finns reacting to Bears " ! He said that He has to Go to Military - and so He is looking for The Future ! - after serving ! I have Done that - too ! The Fiture after Military ! To Ones that has never been to Estonia or Sweden - You should see when - Steve Jobs in Sweden 1985 - How He came to Europe to tell - How His APPLE is going to Change The History of The Future ! Take a Seat and Enjoy !
I watched the first Estonian video and I thought it was good. Now watching this, WITH ARTUR... I am smiling from ear-to-ear!
Im a Latvian and i Love Estonia. I go there 2-3 times a year its a very cool country.
God bless America and freedom!
Paul you should do a Los Angeles Geography Now I live in LA and I love it VISIT LONG BEACH AND SAN PEDRO
