    I have a theory about the religion map. The reason why Europe is so much lower is not only that we are less religious, but also that we are more "skeptical" in general. So we are less likely to say we are CERTAIN of anything.

    Ankara is the capital of Turkey!!! 😮
    3:08 What are you talking about? The mean distance between the earth and the sun is about 12,000 times the earth's own diameter.
    Do you really think the equator being this teeny bit closer to the sun than the poles has any influence on the weather whatsoever? 😂
    No, it's just because of the earth's rotation axis and therefore the different amounts of exposure to the sunlight or let's say the sun's radiation:
    The equatorial regions face towards the sun every day around the year whereas, due to the tilt, the north pole faces even slightly away during the northern hemisphere's winter and the south pole during the southern hemisphere's winter. 🙂

    • @bastian6625
      @bastian6625 Месяц назад +4

      True thing. I would maybe add that at the equator it's not just the exposure time, but also the angle of the radiation/light. Closer to the poles the light is arriving less direct and therefore spreads the same amount of energy over a much bigger surface.

    I don’t personally know any people that I would call religious.
    I’ve met a few along the way, but they’re definitely the exception, rather than the norm in the UK, and the only times I’ve ever ventured into a church has been to attend Weddings, Christenings or Funerals.

    The "living at home" thing has a lot to do with culture. In south EU it is not uncommon that 3 or 4 generations live under the same roof. Land and house are passed down the heritage line and there is not so much moving around involved. While from my understanding, in the USA it's almost a must to leave home when you hit 18 years old and start your own life, which often does not involve the own family.

      Here in Czechia, it's not culture, everyone wants to leave as soon as possible and get rid of their annoying boomer agressive alcoholic parents, but becuase of our crazy housing crisis, it's pretty much impossible for young people under 30 to live alone, you always need at least some friends who live with you, you not at least 2, but more likely 3 salaries to pay rent of apartment and save some money.

    I once asked my dad why we don't seem to have the religious fanatics in Europe, that the US has. His answer? "Those are the people who left to America, as fact we should remember to thank the Brits always." 😂 So yeah, religious freedom works here. We don't have the problem with the "christian love".

      What is even "religious fanatics" ... Anyways tell your dad he got things wrong.
      1 they left for America/the new world for more opportunity but also because thier countries wanted them to repopulate those vast places. Not because they were "prosecuted" because of thier faith. Sure it happened but it wasn't the main reason.
      2 living in Europe (most countries in it) is definitely better then any American state and you cant deny it. The golden age of the usa is lowkey GONE...

    The US is more or less still in the middle-ages when it comes to religion, and i still have problems to understand how a country, from that i thought for long time, is quite good educated, can still believe that these ancient fantasy stories are real.
    In the end religion is just another concept for those in charge, to make the masses do what they want you to do, and thats mostly work for them/be their slaves, give them everything you have and of course also fight for them in their wars.
    Which also is a thing i can't get, i mean how dumb must people be when they believe that they have "god on their side" on both sides of the war and so fighting the right fight ? If that god really exists he just must be an absolute asshole who has fun in seeing people torture and kill each other, or he just doesn't give a shit at all.

    In many of these comparisons, it's not clear if they compare whole Europe, or just EU countries, it's also complicated to put Russia somewhere since they occupy 2 continents and it's generally complicated to compare because Europe doesn't have any 100% borders that eveyone would acknowledge. We mostly agree that Europe ends somewhere in Ural mountains in Russia, but you can sometimes see that even countries like Georgia, Azerbaijan and Armenia are sometimes considered Europe, sometimes even part of Turkey is considered Europe, so it's complicated.
    Europe as an actual continent doesn't exist, Europe is just a cultural thing.
    BTW, driving age...I think they should increase it to 21, because I see how young people are getting totally useless and stupid because of using cars too soon and also they are fat because of that, they don't even know how to open door in train or how to get somewhere without car, people should start using cars already 100% adult and with some life experiences. The same with alcohol and smoking. I know everyone is buying it younger, there is always way how to get it, but 21 is a good age, when you start younger, you will get addicted more easily. In 21, you can be sure that the vast majority of people are already adult, while in 18, a lot of people are still more like kids.
    And here - 9:51 - they have wrong map, there is written GPD per capita, but map shows GDP nominal obviously. When they count even countries like Russia, then ofcourse, European GDP per capita is doing down because it's 150 milion people with very low GDP per capita.

    Ankara is the capital city of Turkey ,the day length is more complicated because the Earth's axis has a tilt of 23 degrees this is a factor in the day length , in the UK at the moment the sun rises around 4 am and sets around 10 pm , sounds good doesn't it ,but down side is in winter the sun rises around 8 am and sets around 4pm ,not so good,the,❤❤.

      Yeah... but day length is totally linked to latitude and nothing else... and on average the day lasts 12 hours everywhere on the globe, lack of daytime during winter being exactly compensated during summer. This map is about weather : how much time isn't there a cloud between direct sunlight and the ground.

    regarding the military..
    the US spend 17.3% of GDP on healthcare in 2022
    the OECD average was 9.2% of GDP in 2022
    the US spends 3.5% of GDP on the military.
    if you got control of your healthcare costs and got them inline with the OECD average you would save 8.1% of GDP.
    this means that you could expand the military with 200% and still have money over.
    I think you need to get the politics under control and start working on making things better on the things you can agree is a problem, but yeah bit tricky to make that happen.

      The problem is not that the US healthcare system is bad because it is underfunded. It is that it is bad and expensive. No country in the world allows itself to be exploited by pharmaceutical companies like this. In Europe, a dose of insulin costs 15 dollars, in the US it can cost up to 1000 dollars, and production costs are just a few cents. In most cases, both are produced in India, where a dose of insulin costs 1 dollar. There is only one industrialized country in the world where diabetics die. And that is the USA.

    I find it problematic that he uses non European countries and not tell they are not European. Azerbaijan is definitely Asian not European !!! The furthest outline border is Istanbul Turkiye, where the city is actually split in a European part and an Asian part. (Azerbaijan is east of Turkiye, thus not European. Georgia and Armenia are also to the East and are thus Asian. This youtuber needs to check his geographical facts.)
    It depends on how you define religious. If it is simply based on believing in God, versus acting on that believe or as is more common in the US, we believe in God so long as we can do whatever the heck we want. The latter is the definition used by this youtuber, and is not a valid representation of the way Europe belives as that would be the former. And than numbers gets still screwed up, because Rome, uses a disfunctional method of calculating the numbers of people who are "Catholics". (I once lived in a predomiinantly Roman Catholic area, and was told that simply living in the area meant you were seen as being Catholic, which by any and all definitions I am extremely certainly NOT.)
