- sounds impossible, but it is factually true that Denmark covers more area than India

As a Maltese, this way of rank countries by size is brilliant news. According to this list Malta is larger than Poland and just behind Germany.
Malta supremacy 💪🇲🇹
Wait you are a Malteser? I'm a Twix!!!

What language is spoken in Malta?
We Swedes always joke about Scania (Skåne), particularly that the locals are actually East-Danish, conquered by Swedes in the 16th century, and we should give it back to Denmark since we don't understand the language so great anyways 😆
Even Swedes agree
@@usefulhumvn not scanians
Well how about a unified Nordics? We share a history and culture, no matter what you might think from knowing about the last 1000 years
I'm a Minnesotan with ancestors from Skåne. Visited in the fall and it was great. Was surprised to learn about their dialect's similarity to Danish when I went there.
And if they give scania to Denmark swedens population would be similar to Denmark population
When Brits discuss Indian borders, it never goes well.
And you talked about interesting Islands around the Malacca strait but skipped Andaman.
Or pretty much any border they discuss
Oh jolly straight line look good on map doesn't it France .

Let’s go, little brother Denmark, you are officialy my big brother now!
We always have been
But you hate Denmark
@@lessthan1446 No, we hate Sweden (and I’m also 25% danish)
Norway is basically Denmarks and Sweden’s demonic child, not older brother that doesn’t make sense at all historically
@@blackchrysler This Madlad saying this under a comment by a norwegian.
As an Italian myself, I can tell that from what I learned the government decoded not to build a bridge between continental Italy and Sicily for 4 major reasons:
1 there would be no roads to connect the bridge to the rest of the railroad system
2 even if that gap is very small, the water is very deep
3 there is a fault right in between the Mediterranean that passes between the Messina canal so there would be a risk for earthquakes.
4 we really suck at building bridges
Why don’t they just do huge zip lines? Sounds great, is fun
Also isn't good chunk, if not majority, of construction industry in Southern Italy controlled by mafia?
What about floating bridges? Wouldn't that be an option?
@@fjellyo3261 That would go against his fourth point
@@fjellyo3261 floating bridge 4-6 kilometers long LMAO
In defense of Canada, they’re fairly successful in the fact that they have a near two trillion dollar economy with a tiny thirty something million population
I'm pretty sure California is beating Canada in these metrics so I don't know if you can call Canada successful in that metric... Russia is just under like 300 sanctions
how canada compares to australia and UK? Id guess also beat those
Also Canadian standard of living is much more comparable to the United States and Europe than it is Russia or China. Higher GDP per capita, median wages, etc
@@pjstach134 0%
@@pjstach134 You got to remember that Cali is home to businesses like apple and google in silicon valley and has Hollywood so money is flooding in from business like those.
Toycat: "What laws can Russia enforce over Bolshevik Island?"
Vladimir Putin *watching video in his underwear at 2AM* "Well, let's see..."
"What does the US have-What does Russia have-What does China have that Canada doesn't?"
Me: Nukes
"The answer is waterways."
Me: Oh
Canada also has the 9th largest GDP in the world of ~$2 Trillion so I’d hardly imply it’s an unsuccessful nation
Specially considering it's population.
Canada and Australia perform really well.
Yeah mate, Canada is super successful no sarcasm, even though Tokyo alone has a bigger population then them they got a gigantic GDP
@@dominusvolpus8031Tokyo has a GDP of $ 3 trillion....
Actually, Canada has a great riverine network that allowed the Hudson Bay Company to establish a trading empire. Is it efficient to portage vast quantities of exports across the country? No, but there are still the Great Lakes and the St. Laurence Waterway.
Bonus to the other major rivers in Canada that with further development could be as impactful as the major US rivers (especially the Mackenzie River)

As someone NOT from denmark or india, i CAN confirm
im a simple indian. i see india in title, i click.
And Indians are sensitive to criticism against them bepcz of Western propoganda
@@isukdik believe it or not Western media does actual propaganda to India in bad sight
@@sickboi2615 yeah like seriously we literally grew GDP by around 1200% in last 28 year but people don't talk about it
The video is bad it just explained for like 7 min and then ignored it for the rest of video without a single convincing explanation

@STALIN why are you gae
I think the sizes of Kiribati and Micronesia’s EEZs are more interesting than Denmark’s as they have so little land mass while even placing above Denmark
Sorry to ruin your point, but you were looking at a ranking of the size of the EEZ, not the total area. If you include land area, India is 10th on the list, while Denmark is all the way down at 13th.
Shhhh… don’t take away our new cool thing!
thats what he meant???
If it’s just EEZ, China is at 33rd place on the list. That’s why China is creating to new islands in the South China Sea to expand its EEZ.
The point isn’t ruined at all, cuz Literally the whole point of the video -especially the first section on Russia- was that the video very deliberately wasn’t focusing on the land-area rankings, so there’s no ruining occurring if you’re saying stuff that’s focused on the land-area rankings
not really "all the way down" when they're only 3 ranks apart. It's still crazy to think about, and denmark even rose 2 ranks it seems
as a danish person, i can confirm this
zamn
as an Indian person, i can confirm this
nah, most danes get triggered on behalf of Greenland and claim theyre independent.
The video is disgrace
I just found out that through the st. Lawrence river , the great lakes , rainy river , lake of the woods , winnepeg river, lake winnepeg , nelson river and related waterways you can go from the atlantic ocean to the rocky mountains with only a 1/4 mile portage.
And there's a teensy little creek in Wyoming that drains into both Atlantic and Pacific watersheds (Two Ocean Creek). Shame it never turned out to be navigable, but imagine if it was dug way deeper into an actual land canal.
@@tylerphuoc2653 But… wouldn’t that turn northern North America into a massive island?
@@deleetiusproductions3497 Very technically it already is, since the Two Ocean Creek is contiguous. You'd just be deepening the ship draught that it could carry
Oil is very important. Sunflower oil is great for frying and olive oil is good for salad seasoning. But there are many other tasty oils.
Motor Oil 😋
Murica
F*CK yeah
sunflower oil is actually poisonous as with most seed oils, lard is actually way better as with butter, if you are vegan you ca use coconut oil instead
@@NeostormXLMAX it is not poisonous
@@NeostormXLMAX Coconuts are also seeds.
You also have to remember that Canada is small because they stumped out a lot of immigration while under control of the British
Country starts mining oil:
“MURICA FUCK YEAH!”
Paraguary: Oh shit…
No no, Paraguay is Brazil's backyard and no one else.
There is actually a street in Milford, Pennsylvania called "Crimea River Lane" lol
"Crimea River" should be in every Crimea souvenir shop printed in mugs, tshirts, and stuff; I'd buy one.
"The British didn't invade their neighbours" Ahhhhhh, actually, The British (English at the time) were one of the first to invade their neighbour 'Ireland' and they still occupy part of their neighbour's territory today.
Still an island
I think that following the Good Friday Agreement, which explicitly mandates that Ireland can reunify at any time and without needing Britain's permission, it's a stretch to still call NI an occupied territory. The thing that has kept NI part of the UK is the will of the people of NI. (And by the way, that will is visibly weakening - there's a Stormont election in May, and Sinn Fein are currently leading in the polls, so that border poll might not be too far away...)
dont forget about Scotland
@@oddmerlin9797 Scotland joined the union by mutual consent. Scotland has never been a colony.

fun fact: you can fit china into albania 10 times over
and even after that there's still 99% space left
With plenty of room for the country of Africa as well.
Fun fact you can fit the ROC into the PROC exactly 0 times
edit: so far...
So does China have 1 tenth of 0 square kilometres? They must be small if you can fit them into a country which is 0 square kilometers.

Good knowledge! Thanks for the video
Canada has waterways. The St Lawrence, and the great lakes works for that.
It's more about how much farmable land there is.

Love your videos and your personality keep making good videos :)
Denmark does not technically own Greenland and the Faroe Islands, but Greenland and the Faroe Islands are part of the Kingdom of Denmark '
So Denmark decides on their defense and security policy. But the two countries themselves decide how they spend their money.
So like how Scotland is not part of England but both are part of UK ?
@@shivanshna7618 Yes, it's a lot like Scotland. And Denmark does not have the right to sell Greenland either, without Greenland it also says yes. 🙂
Im from Denmark my selves, so i know a lot of Danish History. 😅

@The Dark Knight yeah i have heard about it. 🙂
Great video! You should make a video about the Valeriepieris circle 👌

The only Mercator projection I've seen is at the Equator. I wonder how things would look with the point of interest at the center (North not necessarily being up). Have you been in websites that could do that?
The border between the Netherlands and Belgium is pretty whacky as well. I believe Baarle-Nassau is a famous place for showing that
Yes the border goes through buildings
10:50 i think i have a good idea of how this would be... Like i've it was already a reality... (Talking about Ceuta, Melilla and some other little Islands and peninsulas on Northern African Coast being integral parte of Spain)
I wonder how many of his statements would change if Greenland were to hypothetically become an independent country, thus no longer being Denmark?
rivers were important for transportation, they are not anymore, rivers are still a factor but thats because without fresh water humans die. As for Russia within 20-30 years because of global warming there will be a permanent sea route around the north of Russia it will also become the most valuable trade route in the world
Off topic: is Google Maps always accurate with borders? For example, I see the border between Panama and Costa Rica which seems to go through homes and cross roads south of the Pan-Am Highway. Also, in parts of west Africa, the border goes through villages without closed roads between two countries. For example, check the city between Benin and Nigeria on the Atlantic Ocean.
Congratz on 200k
You are assuming a flat map doesn't have distortions. Which all 2D (Flat) maps DO.
You always have to do something to be able to fit a map of a sphere onto a flat surface.

Canada likes lakes more than rivers
1:30 All the neighbouring countries of india except China in the South Asian continenent is called as Indian Sub-continent because Brits (not you, you're a good British) were the reason india divided into many smaller countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan Myanmar, and also sri lanka (Bangladesh and Pakistan were a part of India before Brits leave India in 1947 and these are all Parts of Indian sub-continent, also the Indian ocean with Arabian sea and Bay of Bengal sea is very big with 2 island groups in it, and it's the first ocean to be named by a country. Also India's size is almost equal to the Brazil's size which makes a major part of South American continent
What if india claims the whole indian ocean like china? o_O
Yep and dont forget indonesia literally means
" indian islands" :)
I mean we would become even bigger assholes than China
Then all of Indian subcontinent Indian Ocean Indonesia and west Indies should be part of India.
I think the Bay of Bengal belongs to the Cincinnati Bengals
What if they claim the state of Indiana?
As a Crimean, the sarcasm in this video killed me. Good job, love your vids

Canada has the st Lawrence river and Great Lakes which serves the Quebec City - Windsor corridor, highest density corridor in Canada.
Thank you for mentioning my country of Tuvalu. Even though Tuvalu is a small country we are very patriotic. Every Tuvaluan loves our Monarchy. God bless Her Majesty the Queen and HRH the Prince of Wales. I would love it if you could do a video about Tuvalu as we don't really have a voice.
Omg! I Tuvalu person in the wild!

That got me off-guard. Hahahaha thanks for the laughs mate!
I found out that you can fit India in India 🧐😳😳😳
im patiently waiting for toycat to randomly zoom in on a place that i know
17:42 Speaking of Crimea River. Putin just needs to build a bridge so he can just get over it.
But Toycat have you read 'The Yellow River' by I.P. Daley?
just correcting you here Britain did go for Europe including claiming France and going in a war but were not successful so did not really have any colonies or take over Europe
They did have "colonies" (depending on your definition) in Europe though like Malta and Cyprus (as mentioned in the video).
Also, England did maintain territories of France: the islands of Jersey and Guernsey.
And technically the queen does hold the title "Duke of Normandy" because of those islands.
Hey! you should look into african hydrology and the congo river, its actually a huge river but Africa is a Mesa so the rivers rush a lot faster and it leads to a lot of stunts in growth for African countries. Sending love from Georgia (USA)!

China "discovers" islands while also helping "thawing" islands in Nordic countries and Canada.
In the nordic countrys i feel like Norway is the little brother, Sweden the middle child, Denmark the oldest brother and Finland an far away cousin. Btw im from Sweden
How does Canada not have waterways? It has the most islands in the world. They have most of the Great Lakes?
Yeah... We have gulf and river of St. Lawrence to great lakes, Hudson Bay and its rivers. West coast is not as well off but we have Columbia river through usa and fraser. Arctic ocean (NW passage) will become more valuable as ice melts too...
Canada doesn't have most of the great lakes, they have like 40% of them.
@@joplin8433 4/5 lakes are in both Canada and the US so that is probably what they meant
@@Henry-qt3py
Yeah, you're probably right.
Yeah, those great lakes sure are incredibly important for trading with the singular country attached to them that are literally a stones throw away
lmao you could put any title and i would be like "no... maybe?"
start lying to us for fun for like a year then reveal at the end ill pay you like 10 bucks
Will you do another video about the Darien Gap? Thank you
Might
One place you missed that is incredibly well placed is Oman. But not because of their territory south of the UAE it's what's north of it. Oman controls a plot of water called The Strait of Hormuz. What makes it important is that it is the gate to like 90% of the world's energy. Whoever controls The Strait of Hormuz controls the oil and by extension the world.
Of course Andorra is not a Singapore, but actually for Spanish people its becoming like some kind of Monaco, many youtubers and wealthy people settle down there, as the taxes are much smaller than in Spain, but they would still be very close to all the main cities in Spain
I would argue that is there were no Gibraltar straight, we would have dug a gibraltar canal as well as the suez canal
Does that list of EEZ areas include land area or only ocean area of EEZs?
