Feel free to send me more videos like this to summarize in a few seconds!
U forgot to mention the places that are devoid of human citizen populations cuz they’re mostly government property, like the national park areas and Area 51, or disaster zones like Chernobyl. You and real life lore are both part of my favorite channels list, keep up the good work and I hope you have a good day
Bro just doesn't like Georgia for no reason 💀
mr beat! you should do more of these!
What about Europe
New York City is not the capital that’s Albany
Mr Beat covered 36 hours of Real Life Lore content in 1 minute

I like RLL. Not really those empty videos but the other ones are okay.
@@silverninja5218 reallifelore's videos are almost always clickbait, he tends to exaggerate his topics and overemphasizes half of his sentences. It's one of the most annoying geography channels on UA-cam imao

Basically: If it isn't very populated, it probably because you can't farm very well here
That sums it up the majority of the time for sure.
@@iammrbeatsums up majority of humanity too
But may still be good for ranching.
I live in one of the regions mentioned and we have good farmland in the valleys (but the further north you go the less valleys there are) (it’s the area claimed by Jefferson btw)
Originally I'm from upstate New York..... Lots of good farming land, but yeah..... Lots of issues.... XD
If an area seems underpopulated, the reason is probably:
1. The farming sucks
2. The terrain sucks
3. The climate sucks
4. The weather sucks
Actually the real reason why the south has its population inland just below Appalachian mountains is because while the north transported stuff by ports but the south didn’t have good places for ports so it transported stuff through trade by train tracks but since it was hard to make train tracks in the mountains the major train tracks were made in the shortest route around the Appalachian mountains to the other side which had massive amounts of resources and since that was the the area of trade in the south the population is concentrated inland around the Appalachian mountains.
Hurricanes didn’t influence the population distribution much because they kill vary little people and cause vary little damage. If they did Florida and other densely populated areas that get lots of hurricanes would be pretty much empty. But Florida is still somehow the third most populated state. And the areas in Japan that get the most hurricanes are the most populated.
Neither do the other factors mentioned influence population distribution that much.
5. The ports sucked
@@NotFunctional-ever 6. People suck or sucked.
or a combo/all of the above!
5. Government policy, looking at you potato famine, highland clearances and native genocide
As a southern Georgian, I was absolutely FLABBERGASTED by the information that nobody lives here.
Right? I wish fewer people lived in the south.
You don't live there. You aren't real
By any chance do you happen to live near Tallahasse or Jacksonville?
@@steezy064 5 hours to Tallehasee, 4 to jacksonville.
and the absolute audacity to say there are no major cities on the coast 😵💫😵💫 time to retire the channel name, Geoff
Upstate NY isn't even empty, it has plenty of large metro areas. It's just completely overshadowed by one of the biggest cities in the western hemisphere
Ehh, I live in NYC, but I'm from the Binghamton area, went to college in Albany and have family in Syracuse, Buffalo and Utica... I struggle to call any of those places real cities anymore, they are large towns at best, and they are surrounded by nothing but empty farms lol... My brother in Utica and I argue about this all the time actually, when I regularly tell him he lives in the middle of nowhere. 😂
@@c.w.k.n.5117 Buffalo's pretty big tho. Compare it to Illinois, my state. Chicago is absolutely huge and has suburbs that sprawl for miles and miles. But after that, the next biggest metro area in the state isn't even an illinois city. It's the St. Louis suburbs east of the Mississippi in Madison and St Clair counties lol. Then it's rockford and peoria. Both all much smaller than albany, rochester, and buffalo
@flamethefurry3516 I have a sister in Chicago so I visit there semi often also, although I haven't explored anywhere else in Illinois... Buffalo only has 276 thousand people, I live in the north Bronx and we more people living in just my neighborhood... I think you have to hit at least 500k people to consider yourself a big city.
@c.w.k.n.5117 276k live in Buffalo proper, but 950k live in Erie County
Rochester ny native here. It’s a dead city, crime and corruption, plus the dying industries killed upstate New York. Not to mention how overshadowed we are due to downstate New York. We’re forgotten and our voices aren’t heard on a state level. Any policy change that would align with our beliefs or benefit us up here are considered irrelevant. We’re at the mercy of the lawmakers in NYC. And they don’t care about us or even think about us when they write legislation on a state level. Fun fact, I will be fined a large sum of money if I litter in the ocean. 99% of this state isn’t touching ocean. We must abide by it anyway on a state level. Because nyc says so.
Mr Beat is out here destroying entire UA-camrs livelihood in seconds
😆
And i love him for that, its so annoying seeing those pop up imo.
Thanks you Mr beat
Yeah, what a arrogant scumbag
He is, in a way, acting like Thanos
Bro just singlehandedly killed RealLifeLores UA-cam analytics in less than 60 seconds 😂
Real Life Lore been real quiet since this dropped...
In his defense in the past year his videos have gotten more informative than simply giving stats from Wikipedia. Like he'll go into the history in some detail.
Im surprised there isn’t a “Why Nobody Lives on the Moon” at this point
I’m pretty sure there’s numerous videos already explaining that 😅
the legacy of lunar slavery and the economic downturn of 2105, of course
because it is too cold and hot there, no air and the land is bad for farming.
(;
Because America owns it
Because it’s isolated, very cold, and not very good for farming

"why nobody lives in the pacific ocean" boutta be his next video
i asked it to stop recormmending his videos because they are all the same
@@evanbookoutha I’ve never heard of him but he was in literally every single slide haha
Man his videos are kinda annoying lol. I like his 60 second cities clips but the “nobody lives here” videos have gotten so wack. In his Mexico one he covered a region with several metro areas over 800K lol.
@@chefssaltybawlz georgia and florida kinda annoyed me most. like yeah florida is one of the busiest places but georgia is a powerhouse too. so why are we talking about this lol
MrBeat converted 20hrs of yapping by RLL into something everyone can understand
as someone who lives in upstate NY i can confidently say it is nowhere near unpopulated here. does anyone even remember the existence of Buffalo? they have two pro sports teams for gods sake!
The Scottish Highlands aren't unpopulated because of the mountains, large parts of the highlands and islands don't have much more than gentle hills and they're actually relatively amenable to farming. They're unpopulated due to the highland clearances of the 18th and 19th centuries.
Tennant farmers living in small farms known as "crofts" were evicted from their ancestral homes so that their landlords could pursue more profitable industrial scale farming. As resettled communities of highlanders became overcrowded and their industries untenable, mass famines broke out that drove many to migrate south to industrial cities like Glasgow, or abroad to Canada and the US. The population of the scottish highlands was actually higher in 1851 than it is today. Similar circumstances led to the great famine and mass emigration from Ireland from which its population still hasn't recovered. The UK was industrialising very rapidly at the time and the prevailing laissez-faire economic theory gave little regard to the welfare of rural communities.
Don't forget how many of them went to NZ

Mr Beat saving me watching a 45 minute real life lore video
Time is precious
@@iammrbeat I also have time for the precocious using desert - cold and hot! When vegans tell me the world could abandon meat consumption, I tell them to imagine all the lands of the world that are uninhabitable deserts, and that surrounding them is a similarly sized really, very, marginal land for food production that nomadic tribes can only survive with really efficient conversion of plant proteins to meat proteins using lightweight mobile sheep and goats, and that population on our steppes, plateaus, and tundras, would ALL be required to relocate if we entertained their concept at a wholesale scale. Loved this video - thank you.
One of the thumbnails for the Great Plains includes nearly the entire state of Texas with almost 30 million people
Texas is mostly empty outside of the eastern third.
Outside of the DFW area, Houston, San Antonio, Austin, El Paso, and a few smaller cities/town in the eastern part of the state, it's practically empty.
I recently visited eastern oregon and saw a lot of farms and it’s such a beautiful area. Didnt see many crops but saw a lot of horses, cows, and llamas/alpacas
I'm from Eastern Washington, and I think he conflated farmland being low pop to their being no farmland. It's dry out here, but there's a bunch of rivers.
"Oil!" Famous last words
Any resource of value! The ancient towns of Sodom and Gomorrah were located in the 1990s and were discovered to be bitumen mining settlements on the Dead sea, boats would lash and haul large bergs oozing frfom the lake bed, from on the water, and process on land for it's sealant qualities. It was arid, isolated and dangerous geologically, but it was valuable - so it attracted only men, and women that could. ah-hem, charge them by the hour, and some men, well just made do with each other. Even water was carted and sold. Reversing the description of the fire and brimstone and salt pillars, we can model a faultline earthquake and flaming bitumen, and liquifaction of the sands. Without this knowledge we instead got "vilification of perversity" for two millenia.
@@bend3rbotany recommendations where I can read more on this? sounds really interesting
RealLifeLore punching air rn
Bro literally gives 40 minutes of a question that could literally be answered in 15 minutes max, and he somehow connects Namibia’s sparse population density to Ukraine or Taiwan
Or North Korea for some goddamn reason
Or Scotland leaving NATO leading to the fall of the west
Wait, he actually did? Damn, that parody was right
And don't forget a Nebula + CuriosityStream subscription ad at the end
I used to love watching RealLifeLore, now I see it as a content farm with cool effects.
"It's dry and horrible land for farming" *immediately shows the area that produces most of the US's wheat, potatoes, apples, beans, etc.*
As someone form Central Washington. This guy is an idiot.
I mean technocally that is dry land farming west of a certain point.
"Why does nobody live here?" Me staring at the big red circle around the part of Montana my sizeable town is in.😐
I got a few of these, and just never clicked on them because I already knew the answer.
Thank god I never saw the one for Scotland cause I'd have smacked my head into the wall if I was recommended to watch that
The Australia one is way too obvious I think most people can figure that out, especially if they live there
That “1% live here” thumbnail that includes all of Texas 💀💀💀 yep it’s only 30 million of us here, sooooo empty.
Yeah 30 million people divided between Huston,San Antonio, Dallas/Fort Worth and Austin. The rest is either oil or rural depression.
@@mkvenner2it’s a lot of churches+armories out there.
No seriously, I once saw a place that was both a church and armory combined. Only in rural Texas. 💀💀
@@mkvenner2 …that’s still more than 1% of the population bro. Texas makes up 9% of the US population. Reading comprehension is key
@@mkvenner2 Nah, Texas has decently-sized cities in the most ungoldly of places outside the Triangle. El Paso and Armarillo are two of them.
@@therealspeedwagon1451that’s….AWESOME!
this man is reallifelores opp
Thank you for this video, I feel like average youtubers are just putting out the most basic content now and floods all the actually interesting/in depth stuff because youtube recommendeds it all the same
As an upstate New Yorker, I can confirm, there are no deserts. So that certainly isn’t the cause
No you just have 5 or 6 months of winter.
@@letitiajeavons6333 So glad winter is probably over (Not trying to jynx it)
@@bonclay-chan5819hope you have a very pleasant summer. God I’d love to have a summer that only dips above 90 degrees for a week.
@@therealspeedwagon1451 Temperature isn't the culprit. Humidity is. I live in SoCal, but grew up in Western NY. A summer of 80s in NY feels hotter than a summer in SoCal in the 100s.
good, we've narrowed it down, now what about farmland?
To tell if anybody lives somewhere, ask the questions: 1. Is there water? 2. If so, then is that water cold? 3. If not, is it arid/rocky or is there too much water?
If so, people do not live there. If they do, then the reason is 100% economic (either oil, mining, gas, oil, trade, and probably oil)
A very solid rule of thumb
7/10, Too much water.
10/10 not enough water when reading Dune
Sums up North Dakota.
Maricopa county though thrrr USED to be water there but they drinkted it all
"Too many mountains" man has never seen Colombia.
Now we need a sequel talking about the "WHY DO PEOPLE LIVE HERE" videos that are slightly less common.
Mr. Beat should be teaching AP Human Geography with skills like this
This 60 second clip effectively summed up and was more interesting than all of those video combined 💀
Thank you Mr Beat, i was originally planning to watch all of these but now i dont have to!
THANK YOU!!! If you’ve seen one of these types of videos, you’ve seen them all.
I remember doing one of those early "place the pin on the map where the NFL team plays" and that teaching me that big cities aren't just smack in the center of the state.
You just put real life lore out of business
The last one is also because of the types of farmland. Everything is about farmland.
How come no one lives at the bottom of the ocean or on the moon?
because it’s isolated, and not very good for farming or human habitation
Because humans have a skill issue.
Hopefully it gets patched in the next update.
Nobody knows.
moon is because desert, plenty of stuff lives in the water
@@shroomlord682oceans are deserts too. There are massive parts of the oceans that are sparsely populated by animals. Not even fish want to live out in Point Nemo.
Thank you mr beat for saving us time
Heck yeah
I'm still gonna watch them though. "Why nobody lives here" videos are my favorite ways to learn about geography now.
The way you did this video was so funny thank you mate
The claim that New Zealand's South Island is less inhabited because it has earthquakes falls apart when you consider places like Indonesia, Japan and the USA's West Coast.
and also the south island doesn't even have higher earthquake rates to begin with, the south island had about 3700 in the past year and the north island got about 15800,* this doesn't mean that the south island has a low seismicity, far from it, it's just that the north island's is even higher

Mr. Beat: Speedruner (04/15/24)
Mr. Beat just saved me like 5 hours! Thanks!
Eastern Washington is sparsely populated because the majority of the land IS used for farming
While I can confirm eastern Washington is very dry, it's hardly horrible land for farming. Farming is practically what is holding the economy together over here. Apples and cherries in particular are huge crops in particular over here and the soil is actually pretty good
I absolutely love that you shredded these videos, which are mostly just clickbait put out by lazy content farms.
I do have one possible quibble, though:
With respect to your bit about the area around the 100th meridian/Great Plains in the U.S.: when you say "horrible land for farming," do you mean it can't support a wide variety of crops? Otherwise, I'm somewhat confused because a fairly large proportion of American wheat crops are grown in this belt. In fact, when I saw that video recommended in my feed, my first thought was, "nobody lives there because it's highly rural since so much of the land is dedicated to agriculture - duh!"
Historically it wasn't, until steel plows got good enough. By the time the steel plow came along, there was no longer an incentive to live in small cities because commuting was now possible. The only cities that were under 100k in 1920 or so that are currently over a million are resort cities like Phoenix, Tampa, and (especially) Orlando and Las Vegas. Probably some I left out. Certainly no new cities entered the major club after about 1955 or so; pretty much all the new growth came from existing metros growing out through suburbanization, industrial metros that had diversified economies.
@@mobilityproject3485 Makes sense - thank you!
Eastern WA/Western Idaho actually has very fertile soils for agriculture
It's incredibly dry there, though
@@iammrbeat Further away from the rain shadow I mean. Just google the Palouse
@@DiamondKingStudios ""his soil""
Just look up the Palouse in Washington/Idaho. The fine grained loess soil makes it one of the most productive sites in the region
@@iammrbeatso ? Ita dry in Phoenix too isn't it ? I think there may be more to elaborate on than its dry

I grew up in northern Michigan, it is very cold and snowy.
I now live in southern Michigan, it is still very cold
Yeah lol the answer for upstate NY and parts of the Midwest like Michigan (UP) is the snow, the lake effect snow. Cold sure, but mostly snowy.
The only 30 minute videos worth watching are Mr. Beat’s videos 🔥
I always watch these types of videos. I have always found geography and population statistics very interesting
Dats why we are friends mrbeat I appreciate u😭💀
I'm so glad this was recommended after I spent two hours watching a video ramble about exactly what you said in 60 seconds clear and simple.
Mr. Beat is in the business of saving you time and increasing your knowledge. Love this.
This man singlehandedly destroyed the livelihood of several UA-cam channels.
I did not get recommended a single one of these but I did enjoy the video.
I love how it says “1% live here” and circles almost all of Texas, the 2nd most populous state
Mr. Beat out here giving Joe Caine a run for his money
Oh, years of my life has been saved, Mr. Beat, Ta!
Heck yeah
Scottish Highlands aren't unpopulated due to the landscape, they're the biggest man made wasteland on the planet after the population was cleared in the 18th-19th centuries.
that's when my distant ancestor left for Georgia, USA as a debtor prisoner.
No way bro called the Texas panhandle not good for farming😂
Man just saved us a lot of time
Mr Beat could you make a video on the New York topic I feel like there’s a lot more to be said and that was the only one that intruiged me
I never thought in my life that the geography/socio-economic niche on YT would become oversaturated, but here we are
Probably one of the funniest ways to summarize so many videos in a couple of seconds. Instantly liked!
Needed this, Thank you
This was really cool, awesome, and helpful. Thank you!
RealLifeLore really took a hit here
I really wonder if people click these videos assuming the reason is gonna be like “in the central US the clouds can form hands and grab you” and not “there is nothing there worth living there for”
The reason next there are so few people living in the highlands of Scotland is not because there are to many mountains, it’s because 1) the people who lived there were forced to move during the highland clearances 2) there are better jobs in the lowland. If there was demand for people to live there they could, the Scottish terrain is mountainous, but it’s rolling mountains and valleys, not steep cliffs and sharp pointy mountains, it’s just there is a lack of demand and job so people don’t move.
Empty? Yes, upstate is "empty" because it seems that at least 33% of the world thinks the city is the only part of this state
“And why there isn’t a major city on the coast”
Savannah: Let me introduce myself
every geopolitical geography documentary channels hit lists top priority is here
Saved me a lot.. I love that farm land is a key piece. You’d think with how much transportation and shit they’d be fine places to live
Thank you. A single google search could possibly yield more knowledge than a 12 minute video, or like 128 of them
Real life lore videos are like 90% water
I learned a lot, this was the best short in a long time!
"It occured to us that there wouldn't be world hunger if you people were lived where the FOOD IS!! YOU LIVED IN THE DESERT!!" - Sam Kinison
And the people making these videos STILL find a way to stretch the video length to 10 min+
Boy, did you ever save me a lot of time! Thanks
Congratulations, Mr. Beat, you got 1 million subscribers. Your history content is great for everyone. Keep up with the videos and achieve more milestones.
Thank you!
"Why nobody lives here" Literally has an arrow pointed at my house.
“Why does no one live here?” A better question is why would they?
Sir you just saved my 24 hours worth of watching random vids at 3 am thank you so much
Never gor recomended this type of video but i just know you just hexed my recommendations forever
People who’ve watched these videos: how accurate a summary do you think they are?
as someone who lives in Upstate NY, why do people think it's untouched wilderness up here? it's de-industrialized urban centers, apple orchards, and dairy farms
I remember when I lived in Alaska getting to see a 300 pound pumpkin that won that years giant pumpkin contest at the state fair. All the produce from the mat-su valley is great.
Why do the general population not live in the more difficult places to live. What a mystery
As a Scottish person, it's mountains but also the historical legacy of the Highland Clearances where landlords forced tenant farmers from their historical lands (plus there were also better conditions in cities/the colonies abroad so many highlanders moved away but a good number were violently displaced)
Crazy how much we still rely on closeby farming, when we can literally order anything on amazon now.
"Speedrunning shorts"
Oh wait wrong video 😅
One of the other geography bits I love is when people try to claim that housing price differences between California cities and, say, Texas cities are entirely down to differences in zoning regulations.
San Francisco is surrounded by water on three sides and has hills and mountains to it's immediate south.
San Jose is in a valley and is surrounded by hills and mountains.
Los Angeles is in a valley and is, you guessed it, surrounded by hills and mountains. In fact, in the same land area where Houston goes up about three hundred feet, Los Angeles goes up about a mile.
Lotta people need to find out what a topographical map is.
Thank you! I look at the thumbnails of those videos and right away see the answer, glad I'm not the only one. Lol
He’s saying exactly what all us geography nerds were thinking
The first time I felt like I didn’t waste me time watching a short ever
I think that it’s funny that in these thumbnails we see that literally no one lives in 3/4 of Oregon
