Shanghai isn’t even the most populated city in China. China has resident permit system , only holders of the permits are included in official population statistics but in reality many more millions of non resident holders live full time in these cities.
The permits are called hukou in Chinese . They tie the person to the area they are registered. If you carry a resident permit for that area you can access local facilities like education for your children and health care . In the bigger more wealthy cities like Beijing and Shanghai they also give you the right to purchase property and a buy car . People who move to a city that they do not carry a permit for are at a distinct disadvantage. Poor people from the countryside will often just work in big cities but they will not bring their children as they will not be allowed to attend school in a city the do not carry a resident permit. It essentially controls the movement of people and gives advantage to people who have lived in an area for generations. Of course if you are wealthy or have attractive skill set with high education you can obtain resident permit for areas which you move to but for average Chinese it is very difficult to gain a residency permit for a economically rich area .

Keifeng was not belonged to Song Dynasty since 1127, as the city was ruled by Jin Dynasty(established by Jurchenese) from 1127 to 1234 and Mongol(Yuen Dynasty) since 1234. Beijing was never part of Song Dynasty, and it was under Mongol rule since 1218 and became capital of Yuen Dynasty since 1271.
Between 1127 - 1279 AD, Northern China was no longer part of Song. It was invaded by Jin (Manchu?) so I think Beijing and Kaifeng should not have the Song flag but the Jin flag.

Existem muitas especulações do motivo da mudança de capital, uma delas é de se urbanizar essa região do Brasil, onde hoje e Brasília, uma desculpa claramente esfarrapada, rsrsrsrs... poeque essas áreas seriam popularizadas de acordo com o crescimento do Brasil, como aconteceu nos Estados Unidos e outros países, argumento comum esse, porém tão fraco quanto, e para piorar a situação dos brasileiros, na qual reflete até os dias atuais sobre os brasileiros, como toda a lambanças que JK fez, como ter abandonado as entregas de cargas por trens, em vez de moderniza-las, fez mudar essas entregas pelo Brasil, por caminhões, que possuem uma capacidade de carga visivelmente inferior ao dos três, além de se gastar mais, devido ao combustíveis, deixando os alimentos e tudo para os brasileiros, bem menos em conta, isso é... bem mais caro, e não acaba aí, Brasília foi construida numa área completamente inapropriada para construções urbanas, por isso não é incomum, pessoas terem sangues saindo de suas narinas, principalmente em determinadas épocas do ano, por isso, um clima que já era seco com vegetação, se tornou ainda pior com a urbanização nessa área completamente inapropriada para urbanização, a pergunta que faço é... qual moral o Brasil tem para falar em pró do meio ambiente para outros países, se sua capital é o maior simbolo de desmatamento ambiental? É sinônimo mundial de desmatamento ambiental ilegal que o dinheiro no bolso dos políticos fez se transformar em desmatamento ambiental "legal". Em Paris você sente a França, em Londres você sente a Inglaterra e também o Reino Unido, em Moscou, a Rússia, Tóquio, você sente o Japão, e outros países com capitais que possuem a alma do povo através da cultura e História, como Itália, Estados Unidos da América, na qual Washington possui isso, e assim como Recife, Salvador, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro e qualquer outra capital brasileira de norte a sul tem mais Brasil do que Brasília, porém entre cultura por misturas de brasileiros de diversas regiões do Brasil ( única coisa que Brasília tem), mistura entre povos de migrantes de outros países que migraram para o Brasil, natureza com azul do mar e verde das matas e montanhas, mpstrando ao mundo a natureza brasileira, fica visível que o Rio de Janeiro é a cidade com maior ligação com todo Brasil , é se colocarmos um duelo de qual cidade tem mais Brasil na alma, (cultura, História, natureza...) Rio de Janeiro vs Brasília, o Rio de Janeiro ganha de lavada de Brasília, a pergunta é... porque Brasília continua sendo capital do Brasil? Depois os brasileiros reclamam que alguns estrangeiros dizem que a capital do Brasil é Buono Aires, não temos que reclamar de nada, a culpa é nossa, nós é que aceitamos isso, acreditando em diversos papos furados que se escuta do porque da causa de se mudar a capital do Brasil, se o Brasil tivesse feito o que fez a Coreia do Sul, estaríamos muito melhores hoje, não com apenas 2 grandes cidades, S Paulo e Rio de Janeiro, teríamos muitas cidades grandes, como acontesse nos Estados Unidos, Nova York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston, Philadelfia, Atlanta etc... mas temos apenas 2, e no caso do Rio de Janeiro, devido a mudança de capital federal para Brasília, com tal abandono, se criou a primeira facção criminosa do Brasil, o Comando Vermelho, que serviu de mal exemplo para criminosos espalhados pelo Brasil, fundarem outras facções criminosas, que é o caso do PCC em São Paulo, a semelhança da fundação dessa facção criminosa com a do CV, não é mera coincidência. Está vendo como foi "bom" a fundação de Brasília? Rio de Janeiro, Recife, Salvador, Porto Alegre etc... cidades que possuem muito mais Brasil do que Brasília, Rio de Janeiro é uma cidade de artistas de diversos meios, tem muito mais Brasil, até o compositor do hino nacional brasileiro é carioca, escrevi para você o que crianças brasileiras não costumam aprender nas escolas sobre o enorme prejuízo por causa da mudança de capital para o Brasil, essa verdade, escondem das crianças nas escolas por todo Brasil, é óbvio, serão os próximos adultos, provavelmente também não se fala abertamente isso no próprio Rio de Janeiro, o Rio de Janeiro como Paris, Londres, Moscou, Tóquio, tem muito mais a alma da população de seu país,do que Brasília, qualquer brasileiro de bom senso nota que a mudança de capital federal do Rio de Janeiro para Brasília, foi um dos... se não o maior... dos erros que já se teve no Brasil em toda sua História, causando sequelas por toda parte, não apenas na cidade e estado do Rio, como você disse, mas em todo Brasil, incluindo na imagem do Brasil no exterior, já que o Rio é é sempre foi, a imagem do Brasil para o mundo, por isso JK jamais deve ser tratado como um herói brasileiro ao lado de por exemplo, Alberto Santos Dumont.
you’d be surprised if you knew the population in tokyo is only around 16 million. that 37 sth is a whole region including different prefectures and large cities like yokohama/kanagawa, chiba, ibaraki and so on.
It didn't exactly show superpowers, it was an indicator amongst others yes but it didn't really gave an accurate measure by itself. Some relatively weak states were more urbanized. It was mostly about social organization and population.
In my opinion, developed countries have infrastructure and order that extends to rural areas, undeveloping countries have them only in some areas such as capital cities, etc., which leads to population concentration

At the middle of the XVIII century almost all the cities are eastern asian. That's crazy. I always thought at this time Europe was absolutely dominant in every sphere
Europe was politically, economically and militarily dominant in the middle 1700s (probably dating back to the 1600s); but geographically europe is tiny and cannot support a massive population. The interesting fact is it was the spanish discovery of the new world which would leepfrog europe from international backwater to world power player. And it wasn't for reasons you might be thinking. at about the same time europe was discovering the new world, China was changing it's tax laws, forbidding "bartering goods" as a means of taxation, requiring all taxes to be paid in currency. the problem was china didnt have enough silver to mint enough coins to allow it's massive population to actually pay it's taxes, so it started a world wide purchase of silver, which drove silver prices up to near or even exceeding the price of gold. This was tremendous good fortune for spain, because the new world was filled with silver. silver out of it's butt. This made silver more valuable then gold in the spanish eyes. this allowed spain to jumpstart their economy out of the post black death malaise, and incidentally it also dragged most of europe out of it as well, as spain, flushed with gold through their trading with china, then spent their gold like drunken sailors in europe. this in turn allowed europe to massively industrialize as it now had the assets necessary to do so. and the rest was history.
Im not a history buff so I have no clue but how in the world did cities with 300k+ population just vaporize? Where in the world did the almost 800k people in Kaifeng go?????
I think some of the "vaporizing" is the way the chart represented the change in official dynasty/empire many of the cities experienced. They would quickly drop out of nowhere and then pop back up as a different dynasty. Also, the scaling change throughout the video with all of the other cities rising quickly contributed to that effect. But there were a couple of instances where cities did drop off the map because there was a noticeable decrease in total population--I think those cities would make for a fascinating historical case study.
Chicago had a good one century run from 1880-1980. It’s interesting how for all human history the greatest economic centers were the biggest cities until about 1990, then you get the massive slum cities.
The most populus city at the beginning of the video had less than the city I live in, Tampa! And now we have almost 40 million for the top! Imagine if Tampa existed in the 11th century.
As a municipality, Tokyo has a population of about 14 million on January 1, 2024.The last 37 million people in this video are a staggering population around Tokyo, but I think it's ambiguous how far you consider Tokyo.
@@千賀-f4b Thanks for explaining the definition of the Tokyo metropolitan area. However, I'm a bit puzzled as to why Ibaraki prefecture, which is within the commuting area via the Tsukuba Express, isn't included. On the other hand, I also feel uncomfortable that Gunma prefecture is included in the Tokyo metropolitan area, and if they've expanded it that much, I think they should also include neighboring Tochigi prefecture. In short, I don't think there is a definition of the Tokyo metropolitan area that everyone can agree on.

Existem muitas especulações do motivo da mudança de capital, uma delas é de se urbanizar essa região do Brasil, onde hoje e Brasília, uma desculpa claramente esfarrapada, rsrsrsrs... poeque essas áreas seriam popularizadas de acordo com o crescimento do Brasil, como aconteceu nos Estados Unidos e outros países, argumento comum esse, porém tão fraco quanto, e para piorar a situação dos brasileiros, na qual reflete até os dias atuais sobre os brasileiros, como toda a lambanças que JK fez, como ter abandonado as entregas de cargas por trens, em vez de moderniza-las, fez mudar essas entregas pelo Brasil, por caminhões, que possuem uma capacidade de carga visivelmente inferior ao dos três, além de se gastar mais, devido ao combustíveis, deixando os alimentos e tudo para os brasileiros, bem menos em conta, isso é... bem mais caro, e não acaba aí, Brasília foi construida numa área completamente inapropriada para construções urbanas, por isso não é incomum, pessoas terem sangues saindo de suas narinas, principalmente em determinadas épocas do ano, por isso, um clima que já era seco com vegetação, se tornou ainda pior com a urbanização nessa área completamente inapropriada para urbanização, a pergunta que faço é... qual moral o Brasil tem para falar em pró do meio ambiente para outros países, se sua capital é o maior simbolo de desmatamento ambiental? É sinônimo mundial de desmatamento ambiental ilegal que o dinheiro no bolso dos políticos fez se transformar em desmatamento ambiental "legal". Em Paris você sente a França, em Londres você sente a Inglaterra e também o Reino Unido, em Moscou, a Rússia, Tóquio, você sente o Japão, e outros países com capitais que possuem a alma do povo através da cultura e História, como Itália, Estados Unidos da América, na qual Washington possui isso, e assim como Recife, Salvador, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro e qualquer outra capital brasileira de norte a sul tem mais Brasil do que Brasília, porém entre cultura por misturas de brasileiros de diversas regiões do Brasil ( única coisa que Brasília tem), mistura entre povos de migrantes de outros países que migraram para o Brasil, natureza com azul do mar e verde das matas e montanhas, mpstrando ao mundo a natureza brasileira, fica visível que o Rio de Janeiro é a cidade com maior ligação com todo Brasil , é se colocarmos um duelo de qual cidade tem mais Brasil na alma, (cultura, História, natureza...) Rio de Janeiro vs Brasília, o Rio de Janeiro ganha de lavada de Brasília, a pergunta é... porque Brasília continua sendo capital do Brasil? Depois os brasileiros reclamam que alguns estrangeiros dizem que a capital do Brasil é Buono Aires, não temos que reclamar de nada, a culpa é nossa, nós é que aceitamos isso, acreditando em diversos papos furados que se escuta do porque da causa de se mudar a capital do Brasil, se o Brasil tivesse feito o que fez a Coreia do Sul, estaríamos muito melhores hoje, não com apenas 2 grandes cidades, S Paulo e Rio de Janeiro, teríamos muitas cidades grandes, como acontesse nos Estados Unidos, Nova York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston, Philadelfia, Atlanta etc... mas temos apenas 2, e no caso do Rio de Janeiro, devido a mudança de capital federal para Brasília, com tal abandono, se criou a primeira facção criminosa do Brasil, o Comando Vermelho, que serviu de mal exemplo para criminosos espalhados pelo Brasil, fundarem outras facções criminosas, que é o caso do PCC em São Paulo, a semelhança da fundação dessa facção criminosa com a do CV, não é mera coincidência. Está vendo como foi "bom" a fundação de Brasília? Rio de Janeiro, Recife, Salvador, Porto Alegre etc... cidades que possuem muito mais Brasil do que Brasília, Rio de Janeiro é uma cidade de artistas de diversos meios, tem muito mais Brasil, até o compositor do hino nacional brasileiro é carioca, escrevi para você o que crianças brasileiras não costumam aprender nas escolas sobre o enorme prejuízo por causa da mudança de capital para o Brasil, essa verdade, escondem das crianças nas escolas por todo Brasil, é óbvio, serão os próximos adultos, provavelmente também não se fala abertamente isso no próprio Rio de Janeiro, o Rio de Janeiro como Paris, Londres, Moscou, Tóquio, tem muito mais a alma da população de seu país,do que Brasília, qualquer brasileiro de bom senso nota que a mudança de capital federal do Rio de Janeiro para Brasília, foi um dos... se não o maior... dos erros que já se teve no Brasil em toda sua História, causando sequelas por toda parte, não apenas na cidade e estado do Rio, como você disse, mas em todo Brasil, incluindo na imagem do Brasil no exterior, já que o Rio é é sempre foi, a imagem do Brasil para o mundo, por isso JK jamais deve ser tratado como um herói brasileiro ao lado de por exemplo, Alberto Santos Dumont.

Hello,Kaifeng is Song Dynasty before 1127,but it is Jin Dynasty after 1127.
I had NO idea about Tokyo!
very impressiv how many people can live in one city
Uncomfortable
you’d be surprised if you knew the population in tokyo is only around 16 million. that 37 sth is a whole region including different prefectures and large cities like yokohama/kanagawa, chiba, ibaraki and so on.
"only"
To be fair, those are all basically part of one large city. If you look at a map of Tokyo there is pretty much no distinction between prefectures

I love Tokyo！
Edo is the previous name of Tokyo.
Around 1200 it’s no longer Song that governs Beijing but Jin金. This regime has captured northern China.

While the largest cities used to represent the world's superpowers, today they represent underdeveloped countries (except for the first 3 countries).
Which is sad news
Hence all the confusion in the world
It didn't exactly show superpowers, it was an indicator amongst others yes but it didn't really gave an accurate measure by itself. Some relatively weak states were more urbanized. It was mostly about social organization and population.
India is still underdeveloped alright. Hopefully that will change in 10-20 years
@@GeneratedElectricity there's only so much a city can build if there's too many people
In my opinion, developed countries have infrastructure and order that extends to rural areas, undeveloping countries have them only in some areas such as capital cities, etc., which leads to population concentration

The stats of Chinese cities are definitely questionable. Chongqing is the most populated city in China today, not Shanghai. This is so inaccurate.

I’d really love to see the spreadsheet for 1632. I have a germ of a story idea, but I don’t know the world of the time outside of Europe well enough.
In other words I’m looking for a place to set the story.
Depends on what kind of place you need for your story

@@waynesworldofsci-tech hmmm I havent heard of Eric Flint unfortunately and large cities in africa around the 17th century werent really a thing.
If you really need a big one I guess Cairo-Egypt should be a great idea and south of sahara there was Tombouctou-Mali which was a thriving city around the XVth century.
@@waynesworldofsci-tech Theres also Kano-Nigeria which was a very big city in early 7th century
@@waynesworldofsci-tech in the time period 10th century - 16th century there were 3 large empires in sub-saharan africa: Mali (capital Timbuktu), Ghana (not present day Ghana though, capital Koumbi Sale) and the Songhai empire (capital Gao). They relied on trade, resources, gold, etcetera with the outside world, mainly the Arabs.
Hope this helps somewhat, you can do some more research if needed 🙏
I didn’t ever think my home city Manchester will be there 😂
My city, Hangzhou, became the largest 700years ago! Couldn't image how prosperous she is🎉
At the middle of the XVIII century almost all the cities are eastern asian. That's crazy. I always thought at this time Europe was absolutely dominant in every sphere
Europe was politically, economically and militarily dominant in the middle 1700s (probably dating back to the 1600s); but geographically europe is tiny and cannot support a massive population.
The interesting fact is it was the spanish discovery of the new world which would leepfrog europe from international backwater to world power player. And it wasn't for reasons you might be thinking. at about the same time europe was discovering the new world, China was changing it's tax laws, forbidding "bartering goods" as a means of taxation, requiring all taxes to be paid in currency. the problem was china didnt have enough silver to mint enough coins to allow it's massive population to actually pay it's taxes, so it started a world wide purchase of silver, which drove silver prices up to near or even exceeding the price of gold.
This was tremendous good fortune for spain, because the new world was filled with silver. silver out of it's butt. This made silver more valuable then gold in the spanish eyes. this allowed spain to jumpstart their economy out of the post black death malaise, and incidentally it also dragged most of europe out of it as well, as spain, flushed with gold through their trading with china, then spent their gold like drunken sailors in europe.
this in turn allowed europe to massively industrialize as it now had the assets necessary to do so. and the rest was history.
What would be the source for these data?
Im not a history buff so I have no clue but how in the world did cities with 300k+ population just vaporize? Where in the world did the almost 800k people in Kaifeng go?????
I think some of the "vaporizing" is the way the chart represented the change in official dynasty/empire many of the cities experienced. They would quickly drop out of nowhere and then pop back up as a different dynasty. Also, the scaling change throughout the video with all of the other cities rising quickly contributed to that effect. But there were a couple of instances where cities did drop off the map because there was a noticeable decrease in total population--I think those cities would make for a fascinating historical case study.
Fun graph - but taken with a huge pinch of salt. Just one obvious inaccuracy: Kaifeng was controlled by the Jin dynasty from 1127 to about 1233
Like how he casually repeated measures 13-24 to make the song the right length
Where is Jakarta?? Is the world's second largest city nowadays..
Chicago had a good one century run from 1880-1980. It’s interesting how for all human history the greatest economic centers were the biggest cities until about 1990, then you get the massive slum cities.
the corrupt politicians get a nice solid footing and ruin it
What happened at Kaifeng in 1280 AD?
The most populus city at the beginning of the video had less than the city I live in, Tampa! And now we have almost 40 million for the top! Imagine if Tampa existed in the 11th century.

However, I'm a bit puzzled as to why Ibaraki prefecture, which is within the commuting area via the Tsukuba Express, isn't included.
On the other hand, I also feel uncomfortable that Gunma prefecture is included in the Tokyo metropolitan area, and if they've expanded it that much, I think they should also include neighboring Tochigi prefecture.
In short, I don't think there is a definition of the Tokyo metropolitan area that everyone can agree on.
