    Another 50 geography facts:
    ua-cam.com/video/s8v4JTLEJuc/v-deo.html
    Some things i have to clear:
    1) France actually has the most timezones, with 13.
    2) Java island is in Indonesia, not in Malaysia as i said in the video.
    3) Besides Nepal, some other non-rectagle flags are the flag of Switzerland and Vatican City. I should've used non-quadrilateral, but i thought of saying it in an easier way.
    4) Greenland is a part of Denmark.
    This video was made in November. Since November I've improved my geography skills.

    1) The Island of Java is in Indonesia, not in Malaysia.
    2) Greenland is not actually a country, it is an overseas territory of Denmark.
    3) Besides Nepal, the other non-rectangular flags are the flags of Switzerland and Vatican City.
    4) Actually, the Philippines has around 7,640 islands.
    5) Indonesia has a flag that is wider than Monaco's.
    6) You put the dot on Libya, not Tunisia.

    France's longest land border is with Brazil.
    Canada has land borders with 2 countries. USA (which is the longest land border in the world) and Denmark on Hans Island, which is the 3rd shortest land border)
    50% of Canadians live below the 49th parallel (the big long straight land border between Canada and the USA)
    The southernmost point in Canada is Middle Island in Lake Erie. More Americans live north of this point, that people who live in Canada.

    8) The longest plane travel is London, UK to Sydny, Australia!
    9) France actually has the most timezones, with 13!

      1) I like how in 4 ur saying Greenland is not a country but in 5 u say Greenland's a country. No, Copenhagen is not the northernmost capital in the world.
      2) Papua new guinea does have +840 languages, most of them are dialects tho. Give it a google
      3) The 71*C was never confirmed though, if you look on wikipedia there's a 91C claim too... So I just took the most official claim.
      4) London to Sydney doesn't have a direct flight, so New York to Singapore is the biggest direct flight.
      5) The rest are explained in the pinned comment, and idk what you mean with the last 2 facts, i haven't included them in the video..

    You made a mistake at 4:29 . Its a common mistake to think that Death Valley had the highest tempature ever recorded, but it was actually the lut desert, (located in Iran), that had the highest tempature ever recorded.
