*It's all Ohio.*
Also a lot of people have pointed out, and they are right, that there *are* some inaccuracies with the Europe Energy Map (9:53). It seems to be off on some values, doesn't include other sources of clean energy, and seems just wrong on a few cases. Sorry about that!
It also missed that Lithuania is second place
I might not be the only one to say this but the wind and solar generation map of 2019 it showed that the second one was Lithuania with 39% not Ireland with 30%.
Yeah about France, it might not have wind or solar energy but have nuclear energy that make it better than Denmark in CO2 consumption ^^ see : www.electricitymap.org/map
It clearly says "Wind and SOLAR generation" on the map
You are definitely portuguese
Venice isnt even an Island, It was just a bog that some people had the bright Idea of putting WOOD pile-ons into. Great video as always!
Lol true
No Venice is Patrick needing water.
I denounce Venice!
Supersum Creations nice door monster reference

9:50 the reason why Norway has such a small percentage of energy coming from wind or solar power is because they have a lot of waterpower
Same counts for Switzerland and Austria. Both also use alot of waterpower.
😂😂😂 WATERPOWER.
@@engchia Sorry, Hydroelectric Power. Mr. Dr. Dr. Professor.
And Iceland gets just about all their power from geothermal plants. This, of course, makes perfect sense since it’s sitting right on top of a volcanically active region, and will continue to be this way indefinitely.
No it's because Norway is lying and gets most of its power from nuclear/Russian oil
🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🐵🐵🤡🤡🤡🤡
The solar and wind maps is iffy as it only includes solar and wind while not including hydropower or nuclear. Example of the Energy in Switzerland wiki "hydroelectricity (59.6%) and nuclear power (31.7%) in electricity production" which brings in to question there 4% figure and France is 70% nuclear alone. It also ignores what kinds of fossil are used, cause natural gas pollution is way lower than coal.
Yea the lack of Nuclear kind of annoyed me, relative to nat. gas or coal it is totally clean energy. I’m normally not a fan of France, but their utilization of nuclear really gets my respect.
Yeah I was also going to point out that France is mostly nuclear.
It is also a bit misleading because it only shows the production of energy. Countries like Norway buys and stores danish wind and solar power when they are producing more power than they need, meaning even if Norway doesn't produce a lot of solar and wind power by their own they still are powered by it.
Yeah totally agree, Iceland generated almost 100% of its electricity through volcanic activity which is considered to be clean, so that map doesn't justify
Nuclear is not clean and indirectly peroduces huge amounts of CO2.

It's bad theology, but as a fellow American I appreciate the sentiment.
@@Visorak16 Well mark twain was critical of Religion, something I don't agree with him with because I am religious, but mostly because edgy Athiests quote him whenever they can
@@Visorak16 A fellow man of culture, I see, going by your username. But yeah, that's a major roast on us Americans.
Visorak16 Bad theology, but good satire.
Most people learn geography because of an interest in military history though, at least in my estimation.
Romania and switzerland: super internet
Gamers: *Pack ur bags We are movin*
True😂
Switzerland also has a huge glass fiber network for data transmission.
You got me
Frandy's Weather Channel *Jelly has left America*
@@koantao8321 Same in Romania. There is a huge circle of fiber that encircle Romania.
You made an error at 9:53 you claimed that Denmark was the only country to get over 50% of the electricity from clean sources but Iceland gets 99% of the electricity from clean sources.
Same goes for Norway, but the map only focuses on wind and solar power. Not thermal or water as Iceland and Norway utilizes.
@@Tobiz0rZ also doesn't show nuclear which is also a clean energy even if it has other problems
@@Tobiz0rZ but he said clean energy which is false
Same would apply for Quebec if we would've won the referendum in 95...
Well, yes. But if you look at the map itself, it says wind and solar energy. And in those spesific terms both Iceland and Norway are out of the equation. So I think we both agree that he should have done better research/phrased himself better regarding the subject.

Give the internet to your people you miser
I think the low value for France on the energy map is a little misleading, as they get about 75% of their energy from nuclear power, so all together thats about 83% clean energy, which is excellent, but since the map only shows wind and solar it reflects poorly on them.
It also leaves out hydroelectricity which is a little strange
It is strange, because hydro and nuclear are more self sustaining and cleaner than solar and wind
The same goes for Czechia, Slovakia, Hungary, and other countries, that look bad on that map, even though for instance Slovakia is 60% nuclear.
@@SleepyJoeFlorida nuclear is self sustaining?
@@drbritishdude it produces less co2
@@SleepyJoeFlorida except for the nuclear waste....
In finland we dont have good internet, we just have it everywhere
Kind of same for us in Estonia. Thos specific internet map has been around for a bit, remember seeing it on reddit too. Romania has fast internet but lower % of people with access to this internet, its closer to those other "green" countries on the map now but still behind in that. Theres also internet freedom, prices etc. What do you even do past some points of speed? Im content with what I have rn, could easily downgrade to half that.
10:32 They use Nuclear Energy, and if managed well, it can be much better for the environment.
The problem with nuclear power, at least until we get fusion power, is the waste. We don't know how to properly get rid of it.
The thumbnail be like:
"Wait it's all Ohio?"

Happy Pennsylvanian noises

@@thealt8038 shhh we don't talk about our bigger sister state
Pennsylvania is really like the bigger brother that got in the club before us and was a original member
9:54, i feel this map is a little unfair to Iceland. They get most of their energy from renewables that aren’t wind or solar, mainly geothermic. Just an observation.
same for france with a whoping 80% nuclear (0 emission) while germany seems to have a good score but is still running charcoal power generation
@@Martel_Clips norway be like 96% hydro 3%wind 1%coal
but then again the geothermal dynamics of the Icelandic underground aren't exactly environmentally sound, though not a man made problem
@@FenceThis yeah, but just blame Mother Nature for that. A volcano will erupt whenever it wants, regardless of whatever humans do.

Yakob Turkey can invade and conquer all of Greece in a single night lol
Th electricity map while interesting doesn't cover everything as good as it could. While water energy is renewable and mostly green it is not shown. Otherwise Switzerland would be at about 65%. This way also can show a how maps can give a false idea. French is so low because they have about 80% nuclear energy.
Same with Austria while 13% seems about right for wind and solar - it ignores the fact that 60% of the total electricity produced comes from hydroelectric power stations like from rivers
Hydropower is a big deal in all mountainous countries. But Latvia also gets a very large part of electricity from hydropower stations. We have three big ones while both Lithuania and Estonia only have one big hydropower dam each. The Estonian one is what causes that "weird" part of border with Russia -- the border apparently just follows the old riverbed.
Don’t forget geothermal power as well. No need to use solar or wind when you can get all your energy from the ground.
5:15 *plays Preußens Gloria in the background*
British, Dutch and Portuguese: *nervous sweating*
Most of France's energy comes from nuclear power, which, if well managed, is cleaner than both regular coal power and other green alternatives
9:55
For those who don't understand the number for France, we use nuclear power plants
Germans use coal (60%)
So ....
But to defend Germany they are phasing out coal
@@haydenprewer8388 But only because gas got cheaper so coal is no longer economically viable. That’s why they’re building second pipeline from Russia. And the reason the gas got so cheap, is because it’s waste product during fracking for oil in America. So as Americans are drilling for oil as crazy, and finding all this natural gas as waste product, they are frantically trying to sell it everywhere, because you can’t store gas easily like oil or coal, and that is lowering global price of gas.
So on paper, Germany is getting less CO2 emissions. But in reality, there is only one atmosphere, borders don’t matter for CO2 emissions. And those go up because more of oil is consumed globally.
And in regards to solar, this is map of solar radiation:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_irradiance#/media/File:Global_Map_of_Global_Horizontal_Radiation.png
Solar panels make sense in red and orange areas. It doesn’t make economic sense in yellow areas. And it doesn’t make ecological sense in green and blue areas.
Again, on paper Germany will have less CO2 emissions, but once again, only one atmosphere. They released more CO2 in China in creation of those, and then in transport and then in recycling (if there ever will be recycling) than what Germany saves.
People often forgot how in the north Europe actually is. Look at 45 parallel line on that map. All major economies like US, China, India, Japan are largely bellow it, while Germany is north of it.
German energy policy is the opposite of ecologic. They should copy more France. Instead they are pretending to live in subtropic region with a lot of sun.
@@stafer3 thanks (you look well-informed 😉)
Strange how France is one of the only nations hitting the goals for CO2 emissions time and again, that it predominately uses nuclear power, and yet somehow America can't figure out how we could possibly arrive at our CO2 goals. Hey liberals, can we fucking have nuclear power already?! How much global warming is it going to take? Do we literally have to be on fire?
@@haydenprewer8388 - They're "phasing out coal" by replacing them with natural gas. What they actually did was phase out _nuclear_ and replace _that_ previously clean load with more fossil fuel generation because their massive increase in solar and wind couldn't make a dent in the lost production.
Cutting nuclear was a massive, _massive_ mistake for Germany.
Norway gets line 90% og its power from Dams so whe dont really need solar or wind power wich i think is very cool.
I love maps; historical, fictional, predictive any of them!
The eastern US does have Native American reservations. They are not as big in land area but they are there. I live in Georgia and there are a few here. I'm orginally from New York and there are several Native American reservations in that state as well. But again they aren't large like the Navajo Nation that you see in Arizona and parts of New Mexico.
In Sydney tower they credit the Portuguese as the most likely western people to arrive in Australia. Even some of the aboriginal languages in the north have words very similar to Portuguese, to which they believe it was due some Portuguese castaways who stayed with the natives and influenced their ways. For some odd reason the Portuguese didn’t claim Australia, but it would be interesting to hear some theories about that :)
The Portuguese didn't find Australia's most fertile land, along the eastern and southern coasts.
Norway’s energy is a 100% green. The main energy source is hydroelectric damms. In fact the least green country in Scandinavia is Denmark since they still use a lot of coal.
9:45 I think that map would look a lot different if you included hydroelectric power.
France is mostly nuclear, so not fossil fuels either.
Iceland does a lot of geothermal.
3:06 That's a class 465 "networker" in a South Eastern Trains livery. They perform commuter services in Kent and south-east London, especially on the Southeastern Metro
I really love your videos man! They’re really fascinating and entertaining. Keep up the good work. PS. Entertaining podcast the other day :)
Thank you!
9:54: You miss out Lithuania which comes in second with 39%. And for Denmark it is easy: the Belts and Sounds offer a lot of shallow water area for offshore windparks near the coast. In the North Sea these areas are on the Dogger Bank which is quite a bit more off shore and therefore more difficult to maintain. But that's where Britain and Germany get their wind power from. And France has only 8% because other than other countries they stick to nuclear power rather than to invest into regenerative energies.
General Knowledge: (Puts a map on the thumbnail, then puts it in the begining of the video)
Me: You're a good man, thank you.
Well, even tho Spain has less railroads it has the most km of highspeed ones after China and RENFE, the train company is one of the best in the world
Well, Spain has lots of high-speed railways but no one goes on them, so they are white elephants.
I'm actually surprised Japan isn't higher
"Malgash" is French for the Malagasy, the people of Madagascar.
Oui
The railway map should really be looked upon in combination with population density and geographic aspects like mountain ranges etc. For Scandinavia, Sweden is the third largest country in the EU when looking at the area of the country (France and Spain are larger) but the population is only about 10 million people. Along the border with Norway there is a mountain range, which explains the few railway lines there. Speaking of Norway, one must realize that that country is very much covered by mountains, making railway (and road) construction much more difficult that in for instance Sweden or Germany.
Moving over to the energy source map the exclusion of hydropower also struck me. In Sweden last year 39 % was hydropower and the same percentage nuclear, so solar, wind and hydropower together is 52 % and depending on how you deem nuclear 91 % is renewable or at least not CO2-emission generating electric power.
4:00 In fact, the "United States of Africa" are more or less a carbon copy of the "French Community", a Gaullist project inspired by the structure of the British Commonwealth, meant to keep the new independant ex-French colonies strongly linked to the French Republic. As for the "Malgache Republic" it is just the translation of the French "République malgache" - since in French, the inhabitants of the isle are Malgache people.
That project inspired the West Africa Union it’s Similar to the Africa union but with military alliances too
All maps are interesting and different and have it’s interesting stuff and lore related to them
In real life we call “lore” history lmao
I watch your videos since a long time and always appreciated them, but in this one, you were quite imprecise with the two Europe maps:
- the first map shows only the internet speed via fixed line, but some countries concentrate more on mobile internet. In my country that shows bad speed in the graph has actually very good speed. Providers use often routers that combine the fixed line with the mobile network.
- the second graph only shows wind and solar, but not hydropower. So there is no reason for being upset with certain countries. My country Austria produces over 60% hydropower, but has for geographical reasons less wind or solar energy.
That’s not his fault, he didn’t make these maps. Its the responsibility of the map-makers.
@@MerkhVision You are wrong. The maps are fine and precise, but he wasn't careful enough when analyzing them. And I have to say that I really enjoy his videos. So it is not a hate comment at all, I just wanted to give additional information.
About the internet i want to add that most familys choose a basic speed just to stay connected so 25Mbps is really good speed even for 1080p video streaming.
Energy graph.
Clean energy is not for every country. For example the balkan states have a vast network of rivers and most of the territory are mountains plus the region gets hit regularly by earthquakes so windmill is not a good choice.
10:19 This is so because some countries don't have much sun/wind and Switzerland focused on Energie made with rivers and lakes
The reason that France has such a low % Of there energy from renewables is down to the fact they get so much of their energy from Nuclear energy (around 75%)
The green energy map is unfair to france as france primarily relies on nuclear energy. (Something like 70% of their power is nuclear). Some environmentalism groups have been very biased against nuclear power even though its proven effective.
The railways are practically reflections of population density. Actually Spain has TOO much rail way per capita.
Well it doesn't reflect population density at all in spain.
@@jwolternova1051 spain has a population of 46M and france around 67M and germany 80M the length of railroad per capita isn't really proportional
one big thing to consider though is how many trains are on thoose railroads and i can't really comment on that
@@Martel_Clips Yes but I'm refering to different population densities through Spain.
I think the railways are actually reflections of what cities are massive transit/trade hubs.
Interesting stuff! Keep those videos coming!
For the map about renewable France doesn't push it because it already produces alot of it energy using nuclear so instead of putting energy into changing the makeup of its power production its putting taht effort into reinforcing electric cars etc
The thumbnail: wait it's all Ohio?

I like how Florida has a small strip of land along the southern coast lmao
It’s called the Florida Panhandle. It is basically Alabama and everything south of it is like a Latin American country
It’s Florida’s keys, dumbass, not a strip of land.
Edit: Are you talking about the NORTHERN strip of land, or...?
Joseph Stalin i think he was referring to the panhandle and meant southern coast of the US
@@DiegoVio yes I think they're talking about the first map on how a small piece of Florida extends extremely West
Love your videos! Keep the great work up!
The train lines in the UK are in urban regions. There are fewer in Scotland and North Wales because those regions are mostly rural.
I saw the thumbnail and insta tly thought
"In a world, where you can fit roughly 18 Texas' inside of Ohio"
No you always could and always will
10:02 first you say "Wind and Solar Energy" as displayed. But then you say Denmark is the only with more then half of it's energy beeing clean. This is false, because waterpower is clean too. And Switzerland gets around 60% if its energy by Water, and most likely other mountainous countrys too, but I have no numbers of other coutries
Really cool! Thanks for sharing these!

I'm from Upstate New York, I grew up in the city of Watervliet and my family has been in the Albany area s ince the Dutch ruled in the 1600s. I would be interested in seeing maps of old New Netherlands, the Beverwijck and Fort Orange in particular. I have an ancestor named Anneke Jan's whose husband was the minister at the first First Church of Christ and whose farm was in what is now downtown Albany New York, right on the Hudson River. I love the local history, it really fascinates me. I would love to see anything you can find from before British rule in upstate New York.
Anneke Jan's? That is the most dutch name ever!😂 In modern dutch, her name would be Anneke Jans. Anneke is a diminutive of the name Anna.(little Anna)Jan's seems to be an old school abbreviation of Jansen. In english her full name would be Annie Johnson.
Portuguese may have discovered Australia, the Dutch are the first europeans that definitely landed there.

10:33 I think this is due to France's reliance on nuclear power.
France actually emits way less CO2 per capita than Germany and many other European countries even though she is a little bit far behind when it comes to renewable energy, but thanks to its usage of nuclear energy, it consumes way less coal and oil than her neighbors making it overall pollute less than Germany.
Your videos are really cool. Will you ever do one about the various pirate flags used over history, and their meaning and history?
France doesnt rely on renewables because it makes most of its energy with nuclear, that can be cleaner than wind and solar
Apart from the nasty nuclear waste that cant be destroyed and kills anyone and everything if it gets into the environment. You know, the stuff that solar panels and offshore windfarms dont produce.
seth bennett Producing solar panels is highly poluting, also you cant recicle windmills or panels so, instead, they are buried in the countryside, very ecologic.
Nuclear plants produce virtually no waste, the amount of energy a gram of uranium produces 80-200 million jules, thousand more that what killograms of others produce.
I dont know what you mean about killing everything but nuclear plants are way safer than coal and gas. Dont be an ignoran and read more, we need nuclear energy if we want clean energy (combination of renewables and nuclear)
France is the country in EU that emits the less CO2.
@@gabriel-qz9ps they do produce waste, granted its a low amount but its still highly radioactive. France doesnt have a safe longterm way of storing it. Note also that you cant recycle a nuclear plant either. I dont know why you would want to recycle any of these things, just leave them where they are. Yes france emits the least CO2 but it stands proudly in 1st when it comes to highly radioactive nuclear waste (physical as in its a solid, not a gas). The path to renewable energy is power generation suited to region. Solar panels in regions of extreme sun, onshore windfarms in land regions with high wind, offshore windfarms in sea areas with high wind, tidal power in areas of water that experience high movement like maelstroms. Nuclear power is clean on the surface, but if in 100 years or so we are having issues concerning the storage of nuclear waste.
seth bennett Solar is great! But if you are so worried on waste, why aren’t you taking the toxic elements found in retired solar panels?
@@peneficial1643 they can be contained easily and disposed of. nuclear waste is really hard to contain and has a ridiculously long half life
Understanding of the Native American reservation map was clarified by Supreme Court last week. Eastern half of Oklahoma is actually Native American reservation.
The Caribbean is included because that was the area Columbus "discovered" (the Bahamas and Hispaniola more specifically), not North or South America. So the map would be placed in the time between "discoveries".
The thing about power in France is that a significant portion of their power is produced through nuclear energy.
Did you get triggerd that whater turbines and thermal power was not included in green power
Yes, please more videos regarding maps.

Great maps, loved it!
so proud of earing more of Portugal
Congrats! Great video!
Interesting video! 🙂 Please make a few more!
Maps are really coo- SUBSCRIBED
Interesting video. The energy map should have included the hydroelectric power.
Anyway, great presentation, always interesting and well explained.
(The music at ~4:00 is Preussen Gloria, btw, if someone is interested.)
The reason Norway has so low solar and wind power% is because we primeraly use hydropower, which is also a clean energy source.
Can you dive into the Spanish/Portuguese Australia a bit more?? That was cool
The map with the Railways in Europe is very interesting, because there you see most of the big citys, like London, Paris, Milano,... with their Urban Area as circles, but in Switzerland its just a dark shade from Lake Konstanz in the North East to Lake Geneva in the South west between the Jura Mountains and the Alps
Have you done, or considered doing, episodes on a single battle in a war, giving the strategic situation before and after the battle, while also showing troop movements and actions significant in the battle?

I appreciate you going directly to the thumbnail
I just wanted to comment to say thank you for putting the one in the thumbnail first!
7:05 part of Oklahoma was re-added a few weeks ago, so this needs and update
Only around three minutes in did I realize I was hearing Preussens Gloria but when I did, I was simply overjoyed.
Why are you playing preussen Gloria in the background on the Africa map? I mean great song just why?
On the African map:
Djibouti and Somalia were 1 country back then, just like Namibia and other regions being part of South Africa
On the European solar/wind power map:
France gets a ridiculous part of energy from nuclear power, which also is somewhat 'green'.
Sweden has a lot of hydropower. Looking at that map, a weird image of green energy in Europe is given in my opinion.
Ty, very informative
10:25 Norway does actually very well, however it's in hydropower and Norway can't really put up a lot of windmills since there is little space and risk for damage in rural areas
I love the Preußens gloria music in the background
Can you please post a link to the "Americas don't exist" map from 8:30? I'd like to look at it more closely.
Though Latvian Wind and Solar energy production is very low, about 75% of Latvias energy comes from hydroelectric power plants.
Is the made-up map of colonization of the Americas available online? Where can I view it?
I saw some others comenting this, but I just wanna emphasise that wind and solar isn't the only source of 'clean' energy.
The indian-america map was really interesting, do you know if it's possible to get that somewhere?
The map of that town looked very cozy...😌
What program did you use to make this?
So what I'm hearing is that places with more railroads also have better internet. More often than not
The Antarctica map by Piri Reis comes to mind. Map projection is also an interesting topic. 😊
.".... Oh it also looks like Patrick, from Sponge Bob...." Saved the best for last.
The railways one is a bit misleading, as many countries have rail systems that aren't technically considered railways, and the map leaves them off. For example, in Dublin, we have the Luas system, which is pretty far reaching up and down the surrounding coast, but is technically a tram/streetcar rather than a train since at some points it shares the road with cars.
And further, most 1900s railways in Ireland were, due to low population density, narrow gauge (or single nain line track with passing loops) and other than tourist ones left, all narrow gauges have all gone. Also partition in Ireland in 1920 meant a large no of cross border lines were closed (esp due to the then anti- rail attitude of the old NI Stormont regime). Note on the Ireland map, the lack of lines in the North West, mainly due to that Stormont pro-road bias. But both rail cos there now, IE (Iarnrod Eireann/Irish Rail) and NIR (Translink NI Railways) have a much better attitude..
Its interesting, that the author of the map, that shows the production of natural energies, completely left out the use of water as an energy supply. Lots of Countries like Swizerland or Norway have a lot of Watermills which are producing electric energy....
In this and other worlds,this is an extremely so fantastic map information in our respective lives and every generations that we would be born,good friends!!!:-D
Basically, in Serbia, we can't have that many or any windmills in our most windy area because of the endangered species of birds.
Regarding last european map and wind/solar power - France is relying on nuclear power, Norway, Sweden and Finland mostly hydropower.
Never thought that Romania would have one of the highest internet speed in Europe. Interesting
