    8:17 I think the main reason is because San Marino has waaay lower taxes for cars, so a lot of Italians near the region buy and register their cars there. You should see the amount of cars with SM license plates in Rimini (nearby Italian city)

    We are one of the most underrated states in the USA, considering Basketball was invented here, the first ever car race was held here, and the first MLB game was also held here! Considering this video speaks of our good economy, and living here is cheap, it's kind of crazy how we fly so under the radar. Did I mention we also have one of the best medical schools in the world? (IU Health)

      It did not! It started before 1900, around 1824. By 1940, the German diaspora in Brazil was around a million people already. Just for information, tge 1940’s had the lowest german immigration to Brasil recorded at the time (6,807) - the highest being in the 1920’s (75,801)

    I'm surprised you didn't include the Panama Canal. Most people assume the canal extends east from the Caribbean to a western end on the Pacific, but because of the bend of the Isthmus of Panama it actually extends north-west from the Caribbean to south-east on the Pacific!

    Amapá (a Northern Brazilian state) cannot be accessed by land from any other Brazilian territory. You can only get there by boat/barge. The only bridge connecting it to other territories is a bridge to French Guyana. But French Guyana’s only land connection is to Amapá, since it doesn’t have a bridge to Suriname either

      You might be surprised. There are about 50 English-language television stations in the Philippines and the government operates mostly using English. Have you met many Filipinos? I bet many speak a more grammatically correct English than 50% of 'native' speakers.
