"I believe the divide between the South and North has never been bigger"
I don't know man, I could have sworn something happened in 1861 that had a bigger divide between the two
Rn is pretty close to that
He is using rhetoric. However, it is probably true to say that the differences and the divide in the US appears to be greater than at any other time since the Civil War.
He should've said between the right and left politically or between urban and rural geographically.

USA is at a critical point, hope USA sort out internal problem and try best to keep it's power for everyone in the democratic world. UK was the powerful country once now it is not. I am not even an American
USA has faced many internal problems throughout its history, but always manages to bounce back stronger. USA is not just a country, its an idea, an idea of freedom, liberty, prosperity, opportunity and equality. the torch of liberty may fade at times, but it won't burn out, we've come too far to let the dream die.
The US internal problems are just part of its normal politics. None of this is new for the US and because it is exceptional it rides out these periods with ease.
@@CardThrone I fully agree. I used to hate America but now I love it. The country will never fall but will continue to inspire us.
@@riyadougla539 selfing hating Indian...
Riya you just want warships white colonizers.
You hate your Indian parents and society so, You bagging to adopt western white society.
The UK and the US derive their power from different areas. The UK was a colonial power and got a lot of wealth and power with its colonies. The US mostly gets its power from it own economy.
I appreciate the positive tone of this video. The US is so often vilified by other nations as well as its own citizens. One negative comment: why do you refer to Alaska and Hawaii as territories. They have both been states for decades!
So ignore the facts, just talk about how the schools are painted!
China will not overtake the US. China's population has reached their peak and they are losing many of the advantages they had.
I’m remain and hope that US stays the only Superpower. They care humanity. Unlike other countries that are so greedy.
I don't think China is ever going to catch up to the USA as of this moment, as their economic growth has slowed down to a crawl.
Reach their peak population.
Interesting, I have never heard of this country before.
🤣
thanks
Tbh most Americans probably haven’t heard of America
@@jacobhensley8614 Huh?
the usa economy will be the world's largest for a very long time economists said that the china economy will not overtake the usa until 2060, if at all, because there are 3 reasons why the usa is better than the chinese (1) the usa's income is already almost 80,000 thousand per capita and china only 12,000 per capital (2) natural resources the usa has practically all the resources that exist it helps to innovate the economy and china has practically no raw materials (3) the unemployment rate in the usa is 3.00 and in china it is 6.00 percent
USA 🇺🇸 LETS GO
betting against the US is the biggest mistake one can make
This one of the best USA positive videos I have seen in recent years. Thank you very much! And every word accurate.
Good work. I like that you added the isolation near the end. Also, the US has the most and best deep water harbors by far, the more miles of navigable internal waterways than the rest of the world combined (if you count the intercoastal waterway). Tons and some of the best farm land in a temperate climate. Lastly, tons of resources including enough shale oil for 100+ years.
Also, US has some of the highest standards of living. and Most immigration. If you are willing to work hard you can achieve things in 4-10 years that in other countries takes a lifetime to achieve. I am an immigrant from Eastern Europe. I see how those Eastern Europeans come here without a language or even legal documents and jump straight into the action, while some Americans who were born here, don't even understand how lucky they are.
@@timh9278
The vast majority of Americans do not know they are lucky to have what they have it is still easy to take it for granted.
@@timh9278
Except that US has one of the LOWEST social mobility rates meaning that you actually CANNOT achieve more than in other countries unless you win the jackpot...

As an American, I actually would like to see more improvement in our country, especially when it comes to human rights, advancing technologies, diverse industries and leading the Earth in colonizing other planets and moons (even Venus)
As an American I have to disagree about the divide between the South and the North. To the point that it’s almost non existent. Even the political divide is overhyped and really only an issue in the internet. Most people in the real world don’t make it that big of a deal. It’s just that the squeaky wheel gets the grease. 🤷🏼♂️
The greatest country ever born in human history The United States 🇺🇸
It is probably also important to mention that the USA is once again a net energy exporter, and the largest producer of oil & gas on the planet with extraction occurring in an area thankfully devoid of international conflict unlike much of the middle east, being energy independent gives the US immensely more hard and soft power than say Europe or China as these places have to rely on foreign countries to supply them with the lions share of their energy, and this also brings in immense quantities of cash to the US as a bonus.
Most Americans don't appreciate their nation....
Yes the US has made a lot of mistakes and has a ton of domestic issues....at least she doesn't hide her problems..
There has never been a leader so craved on the world stage.
The modern world owes it's wealth and success due to the US.
China wouldn't have rapidly risen if it wasn't for the US efforts to allow China to enter Western institutions and Global institutions.
America's politics is her biggest problem....
I believe it's time for America to have a 3rd political party to balance the nonsense of the GOP and Democrats.
God bless America.
I am an Indian by birth but I support The UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. The only Country that deserves to be a Super Power forever!
Thank you. It is good to hear some positive about the US.
I think that people largely underestimate the presence that the US has. We are the world's military (albeit sometimes in places we shouldn't be, and spending more money on it than most would like). I didn't realize how high the US's standard of living was until I lived in the Philippines for seven months (the Philippines is amazing, though. Kindest and most sweet people I've ever met). If the US were to fall, then surely the world would follow.
However, I don't think that having a large number of billionaires is really any metric on whether or not a country is a super power. All it means is that it's the easiest place to exploit out of with a reasonable comfort of living. When determining the world's superpowers, I think that we should look at things like: global influence of culture, other countries reliance on said superpower, and things similar to that.
The number of billionaires shows how good US commerce is. It is not the only metric but there are a few others that can be used such as median income, retirement income and productivity.
I love your channel and all your videos, but I gotta ask... have you got something against Africa?
As an African, it would be cool to see interesting facts which aren't just majorly Europe, America or Asia. That's what every geography channel seems to be covering

the US also are the entertainment of the world, soft power is American...music, nature.
Americans have also invented semiconductors, allowing us to have modern computers today, supercomputers, AI supercomputer, quantum computer, the best and leader and technologies like drones, robotics and science, theres just too much.
the US leads and Olympic medals and nobel prizes.
not just the GDP, that only measure the flow of an economy of a country, it doesn't measure the stock and total wealth of a nation. the US national wealth right now is 155 trillion dollars! china is second place and its only ~80 trillion dollars, so no china will not catch the US in economy size if your also sizing its total nations national wealth.
The US needs high speed rail
No it does not. Very few countries require such a thing.
Agreed

Great video yet again
Mr. America Economy GDP is $26.1 Trillions USD. Can you redo it now?
You video is excellent points. On the top . Thanks
There isn't a divide between the north and south but the left and right there is a gulf between us
"most nobel prizes, most olympic medals" im 100% confident in saying that this is so only because its much more accessible than it would be in other countries
The US is built on money, thats it, thats all it has
coming from a 3rd world cry baby that is jealous. please dont attack me for that comment!
so why get salty that its rich???? if that helps them get more metals and prizes
Money is not all America has, you seem like a hater
This makes no sense. The US developed a society where this kind of excellence can be cultivated and achieved. If 'accessibility' to this kind of achievement is not possible in other countries, then that's on them, not the US.
Cope harder.

Just asking, why (when talking about universities) did you use the 2020 Rankings rather than the 2022? The top 5 in 2022 are:
1:MIT
2:Oxford
=3:Stanford
=3:Cambridge
5:Harvard
Yes, 3 of these are in the USA, but in your video 4 of the top 5 were in the USA. It is hard to follow data in 2020 as well. This is because of the pandemic affecting results and could therefore be misleading. And if you felt it was because we are not far into 2022, then why not use the 2021 list?
Wether this was intentional or not, it is misleading to viewers to use outdated statistics and information.
Nice video! Most Americans have a good quality of life but USA is capitalistic, meritocric, moralistic, and natural so those who do have a poor quality of life are like criminals lol. Furthermore, natural environment is harsh so Americans go through struggles so we don't become stagnate.

Good video, but may need to add something about quality of life, Healthcare issues to present a fair report. USA is in crisis mode now, like never before. Truth is seeping out. But, yes, still good for money...
ok, but this video was giving the reasons why USA is the King of the world (power). You can be more powerful but have quality of life issues. Also remember that this video is about positive things. Like if a video says "these are the positive things about X country" you can't say they are hiding something when not listing the negative things. If a video said "this is an objective assessment of X country" and hid the negative things, then your complaint would have merit. Also, this video even said that USA has issues
@@AW-zk5qb Good assessment on your part, but "King" implies the top status in all categories, and that is not the case. Someone who doesn't know will be fooled.

I mean, of course the US is THE Superpower of the world in many cases. But for me only because they have the highest valued companies, spend much money on something or are the best on some things like Nobel prize or billionaires (what is in some cases just logical because of the size)
it doesn't makes the best country on earth for me.
Many things stated in this video are things that are good for the country's wallet or the government. But when you look at the quality of life there are things that makes the US a 3rd world country in some aspects.
have you actually been to a 3rd world country? poor people in US live like kings in comparison to their living conditions. i say that as someone who was raised under the poverty level in US
@@CardThrone of course it's actually not like a 3rd world country, but in comparison to mainly EU states it's really bad in SOME aspects (not all)
@@DJST1NG3R its hard to compare living standards in small countries to a large one, as a new set of problems come with managing a large population, a better comparison would be US to all of EU, in which case US doesn't look so bad
@@DJST1NG3R however, yes US is not without its problems, a more inclusive healthcare system would be a good start. id also note the large benefit EU gains from having US as an ally and not having to spend as much on defense as a result
@@CardThrone Its a benefit yeah, but how does this help the US citizen?
The reserve currency, the US Dollar, is not back by gold. It's not backed by anything actually. They keep printing more and more and the value keeps going down. That's where inflation comes from. Not Ukraine.
It is backed by the US economy so stop with the stupid statements.
@@bighands69 what? The economy runs on the dollar but the dollar is backed by the economy? That’s not even close to the truth. The fed prints the dollar and types in their computers and that’s how the dollar is created. They print non stop and that’s where inflation comes from. They just make it out of nothing. In 1971, Nixon took the dollar off the gold standard and now the dollar is fiat backed by nothing but a false promise.

I love my country..God bless the U.S baby
Natural beauty 😍 of USA 🇺🇲
Who cares if we got the richest. You still are not going to benefit from it's. Make your own nm money
I'd argue that counting total Nobel prizes or Olympic medals does nothing to support the idea that USA is _still_ king of the world, as both counts about a century into the past. Taken as-is, they're more indicators of US' glorious past than present.
It would be probably best to just use the most recent decade of Nobel prizes or the most recent Olympics for this purpose.
Who cares when we got them, we have them, and until somebody has more, it's irrelevant, you act like the US is seriously ever going to be #2 at anything, you really dont know do you? the people who make it what it is are here in shinning force, the world only hears the loud mouth bullshit, patriots dont talk, they act, in the past, present, forever.
The USA is still racking up Nobel Prizes and Olympic medals in the 21st Century, i.e., it's not just a 20th Century thing.
fair, but USA has topped the Olympic Medal Table in 6 of the last 7 Olympic Games (1996, 2000, 2004, 2012, 2016 and 2020). The one time in the last 7 that USA didn't win the medal table was in 2008 when China hosted, and USA still finished seconds and won the most overall medals (and I know we rank by gold medals, just showing that USA did pretty well even in its "worst" showing in last 30 years). So USA recently has been pretty dominant
Biden and Harris are hellbent on changing this opinion

@@redeye3448 not america
@@prst99 yeah but think about this. Soccer/football has been the top sport in 90% of the world for over 120 years. Soccer/football is the 4th/5th sport in USA, and before 2010, wasn't even a top 5 sport in USA. USA doesn't have a soccer/football culture like most nations do. Yet even with that, USA is one of only 12 countries in the whole world to make the round of 16 in 3 of the last 4 World Cups (2010, 2014, 2022). USA has gone farther more consistently than about 90% of nations where soccer/football has been the top sport for over 100 years.
I'm an American and my favorite sport is soccer/football, and I WISH soccer/football were always our top sport, because you could imagine USA would at least be among the top nations in the sport if it was. I think USA would historically be at Brazil's level but at minimum would have won at least a few World Cups
India’s box office is number 2 on the world stage because the average ticket price in India is just $2. Compare that to USA’s average of $10 and you know who is the winner here (obviously, India). If the prices were to match the US, then India would be the biggest box office in the world by quite a big margin (which can’t happen because of the low GDP Per Capita).
Yea thats the point fucking idiot, if india was richer that it would be number 1 but it aint so the usa is and no one watches shitty indian movies, and i could also use your argument against you if the us had indias population we would (ObViOuSlY uSa) Be number 1 even more than it is now
Most indians cannot afford the $2 the vast majority of Americans can afford the $10.

Yes, the USA is the greatest country in the world with 1 major problem is that most do not know the Almighty's name in Hebrew, and you cannot translate HIS name into another language then pray to a translated name. You are only BAPTISED IN ALMIGHTY NAME YHVH His only begotten sons name must stay in Hebrew for your forgiveness of your sins using HIS name means that you are sinless. PART OF THE SONS NAME MEANS YOUR SINS ARE FORGIVEN.
If you pray to the Heavenly Father using YHVH pronounced Yud Hey Vav Hey this is only part of the Heavenly Father's name. After a while of prayer and fasting the Almighty will reveal, more of HIS whole name to you. You can use these 4 letters YHVH pronounced out to heal headache's, and other illness thru to healing miracle's. Start slow with prayers, and the power of healing will multiply greatly over time.

@America is Better Than Europe 😂🤣😅 really? Please read this all you'll be interested, and if im mistaken anywhere point it out. You're profile name is what's worse. Its OK to be proud, but be proud in something good. A few problems the usa has are:
Food deserts: this is when a large city has few food dispensaries. So it can take an hour and half from your home to the store and the same again back home approximately.
Infrastructure: various buildings in various major cities are half built, abandoned or dilapidated, this is all residential, commercial and industrial buildings.
Education: from nursery to 11 they're taught obscene things to do with gender and sexaulity. In high schools they're searched and go into shooter lock downs and universities leave 85-90% of students in crippling $100,000 debt or more.
Hospitals: I don't even want to go into the 6-7 figure fee hospitals charge. Or the experimental drugs they issue at a 500%+ mark up!
Police: not all, but I would say something like 25% of the U.S police force is corrupt, and even 0.1% is 0.1% too much.
Homelessness: cities like NYC, L.A, SF, Vegas, Philly, Detroit, St Louie, Sacramento, San Diego, and more all have a major homeless problem.
Food: all the artificial colours, preservatives, flavours, GMOs, genetically modified ingredients, etc
Inequality: at least if everyone was doing alright then the usa would be alright, but it's not, 1% hold 99% of the wealth.
The usa is nowhere near as good Europe, and although the usa makes money it doesn't share said money. So many companies in the usa earn billions of $s and pay nothing in taxes!
You probably haven't even left the continent have you? If you had, you wouldn't have such a stupid user name! Various countries all over the world are far better then the usa! Including Canada, The UK, Japan, France, Germany, Sweden, Norway, The Netherlands, Australia, NZ, Singapore, the list goes on!
Come on dude! When the usa could be portrayed on TV how it wanted to look, the world thought the usa's Street were paved with gold, now people can see what it really is, a façade!

@@GeographyNuts i think this fear is overblown, china has a lot of mouths to feed, in terms of gdp per capita they're still quite poor, their economy will have to grow 6 to 7 times from where it is now to be on the level of US. US has much better food and energy security. US still leads in technology and innovation. they really have quite a long way to go to catch up, longer than the media makes it seem. the upcoming demographic collapse of china will be another hurdle for them to get over, seems unlikely they will open up to immigration to stifle it. if they dare challenge US militarily, then they'll likely face another century of humiliation.
