the greece and turkey meme is the chad understanding of eastern europeans. i live here, i own this. you live there, you own that. if i take it from you, sucks to be you i guess. hello from greece
It's great to see that someone understands how country territories work. It's not about being first there, it's about fighting and winning the land. World borders won't be same in the future. Hello from Turkiye.
@@TheRatOnFire_Surely many people will be mad because losing a land that was a part of your country is a bad thing from their side and who wants to give land from your country to the enemy? But technically you have the right to take someones land if you want. The reason why countries don't do that mostly because of the power of the enemy, alliences and fees of the war.
Both Turks and Greeks have very similar mindsets in this matter. No single party would apologize for a single atrocity. Also the battles for Anatolia and Greece were fair battles. Two similarly developed empires (Seljuk and Ottoman vs Eastern Roman) fought valiant battles. Turks are traditionally better warriors but Greek and other Romans were fierce, patriotic fighters too. Native American case is totally unfair. They were no match to any European nation.
infact when europeans arrived in north america their tech advancements didnt matter but the diseases they brought that killed 70 percent of the natives
They're much more similar than you think. The Byzantine empire was a hotbed of civil war and internal strife, very rarely managing to present a united front against the invading Turks, who they often used as mercenaries in their internal struggles. The various native American tribes were even more disunited, often actively allying themselves with the Europeans against other native Americans. The conquests of both regions were systematic, very gradual and with local assistance.
@@playmsbk I get your point but you can’t really compare Eastern Romans with native Americans. Native Americans learnt horse riding and metal weapons from Europeans. They didn’t have any serious governmental structure in the North and a few antiquity style states in the south. Eastern Romans were an appropriately civilized empire with all the knowledge of their time. Their internal issues may have weakened them but they were far from being a vulnerable indigenous tribe. Turkish conquest took 4 centuries and Turks learnt a lot from them too.
@@kutukteyiz408 I'm just saying that the lack of unity was the deciding factor in both conquests, more so than any technological or military advantage. The fact of the matter is that the Europeans, despite their clear technological advantage, simply lacked the ability to project serious power overseas against entrenched locals until the latest stages of the industrial revolution. 500 guys with horses and matchlocks simply can't conquer and hold an empire with millions of inhabitants.
@@playmsbk That’s the point, 500 guys on horses conquered a land with tens of millions of inhabitants. This is impossible in Anatolia even for a single village you will need more than that. Their lack of unity is also about their backwards civilization. Eastern Romans had conflicts among each other, and many locals supported Turks, still it took hundreds of thousands of fully armed troops of Turks to win every serious battle in Anatolia. These events aren’t same. Can’t be compared. Fall of Eastern Romans to Turks can be compared with the fall of Western Romans to Germanic nations. Not the colonization of Americas.
Fact : Native Americans truely were natives while Greeks were the first colonizers of Anatolia and caused the extinction of its native ethnos via hellenization
Considering that the native Americans were living in America for thousands of years, I think it would be wrong to assume that the ones that survive till this day were the first group of people that settled in their respective homelands. They would have had their own wars, colonizations and massacres throughout history, even if those individual events are lost in time and have no way to verify nowadays.
the Tali mark is actually a word, 正 it can mean correct, right etc. The tally mark we use just follows the exact way you normally write the word which consists of 5 strokes, which if you still can't tell, is perfect for a tally mark
4:25 Other planets that have been taken from us: Ceres, Pallas, Juna, Vesta, Astraea the first five discovered astroids in the Astroid Belt were considered planets until the discovery of Neptune. Also some people believed in a Counterearth or Twinearth. And then there was the planet Phaeton between Mars and Jupiter.
you can also take it from the other point of view, the french cuisine is so much better than the italian one that the italian chefs themselves come to france and abandon the cuisine of their country to make french cuisine.
tbh as a balkan guy I can confirm that we evolved from powder keg to dumpster fire and we're inches away to fulfill our destiny of becoming the literal gates of Hell
Fun fact: Asian tally marks are like that because it’s a Han character (正) that takes exactly 5 strokes to write. Do not question Chinese character stroke conventions.
At 3:00 I interpreted as 'europeans with 3000€ feel poor' vs 'americans with 3000$ feel rich', given the paycheck-to-paycheck attitude of average Americans.. but could be wrong 😅
@user-pf8rb6ze7i 3000$ is not more than what 90% of Americans have. The median wealth is 121700$, so half have more than that, though that includes assets. Either way the meme was comparing Americans to Europeans, so it wouldn't make sense for the Europeans to be richer.
Drew should make these 2 lines of 3 countryballs next: 1. the African one with CAR, Chad, and Botswana someone else in the comments suggested, and 2, a Czechia, Slovakia, and Slovenia.
As a Jurassic Park fan myself I can confirm that is mostly true except the new movie where the "villain" didn't do anything wrong it didn't even oof any people and Jurassic Park 3 didn't even bother to kill the Tyrannosaurus Rex
正 is a 5 stroke character that also has the meaning of ‘correct’ so it’s a reasonably natural choice to have tally marks, and since stroke order is done is a certain way you also know that the stroke is deliberate.
Yeah, but 03:12 doesn't really work because Euro's only ever have TWO decimal spaces. Also the Euro sign goes BEFORE the amount, so this notation is completely wack. This explains why I didn't get the joke.
If anyone's curious, there's a suprising lack of actual French rat animated movies (Ratatouille being an American movie through and through, whereas Flushed Away actually is a British movie). You got birds, dogs, cats, bears, bugs, snakes, dragons, giraffes, sharks, horses, elephants, unicorns, monkeys, maybe a mouse here and there, but no rats. Also as far as rat movies go, Secret of NIMH > the rest.
Some people: "you stole our land" USA: "sorry 😢" - but keeps exploding people everywhere Turkey: "cry" - but don't kill people anymore as far as I know
As a person of Chinese ancestry, the reason why we do tally marks like that is that is how you write the word (正 meaning just as in justice). It's just more convenient for us that way.
Germany: "We take full accountability for the atrocities we committed. We will never allow this to happen again." Turkey: "what no we didn't do anything evil ever 😢 leave us alone omg 😭😭😭"

11:11 Anatolia is not the historical homeland of the Greeks. The Greeks "stole" Anatolia from the Hittites, Phrygians, Lydians etc.
Would that mean people in modern Turkey are genetically Hittites?

The tally mark in China, Japan, and Korea is 正 which means "correct". Chinese and Korean pronunciation: zheng. Japanese pronunciation: tadashii
correction, in Korean it's read "jeong"

In lot of European countries, we use the "," like Americans use the ".".
So, 3,000 =3,00 =3
Which is not a lot.
Americans are richer, so that joke wouldn't really make sense. It's the commas and decimal point use difference that makes more sense.
