Celebrating a fictional character, it's like having a holiday for Goku
@@biomuseum6645 Are you implying that we should have a holiday centered around Goku? Because I am 100% on-board with this proposition.
@@biomuseum6645If ur saying Jesus is fictional, you need to get ur brain checked
Christmas is only celebrated ONE way. The Christian way. it is a Christian holiday. Merry Christmas > “happy holidays”
Merry Christmas from Italy!!!
🇮🇹❤️🇦🇷
🎅🎄
Here in Mexico we also usually prepare turkey for dinner, as well as pork leg, bacalao, romeritos, etcetera. And for dessert we usually prepare fritters with chocolate. In fact, the turkey was introduced to the rest of the world thanks to Mexico, after the arrival of the Spanish in what is now Mexico.
PLEASE do give this man a fuckin´coldass beer! he is goddamn right! viva Mexico cabrones! :)
Ensalada de manzana
Whitexican
Also a hot fruit punch called ponche is served and a card game called La Lotería is played among family and even neighbors.
In Iran, we have two Christmases.
1. The birth of Jesus, which obviously due to islamism, is not celebrated by everyone.
2. The fortieth night or Mithrazayesh, which is an ancient celebration only days before the international Christmas.
It basically celebrates the birth of Mithra, a zoroastrian deity that represents light, and the light is good.🤔
Merry Christmas, everyone, and a happy new year
Im impressed that despite the islamism,you guys still celebrate zoroastrian holidays
@A_Guy_with_Ribbon well, ever since the islamic revolution, it was kind of a taboo for the government.
But they messed up so bad in governing and use of brute force to stop opposition that they only allow people to celebrate to pretend they care for our national values.
In the provinces of Qom and Khorasan, the conservatism is so abhorrent that they don't even celebrate the national new year (Nowruz).
Glad you keep local traditions alive instead of falling for fashionable foreign stuff
Speaking as a Korean, there is no particular traditional food to eat on Christmas in Korea. There is a culture of donating money to a charity pot in the downtown area called the Salvation Army.
Yes, my father is living in South Korea and I often go there during breaks, in the last winter I experienced Christmas. It was a big change from the religious American christmas, when I turned on the TV I saw people with bells walking around Seoul (I wasnt in Seoul). Also it was a pretty normal day outside of that, but many people were shopping and the mall played christmas music. Just a lot of snow
На рождество в России идут на ночную службу в церковь и после возвращения утром домой едят оливье, запеченую курицу, холодец и идут спать
В рождество у нас все отдыхают и приходят в себя после празднования нового года.
@@Darendddd ну, это люди которые не отмечают рождество, а мы сейчас о том, как его отмечают
@@decide9266будем честны, подавляющее число празднующих Рождество Христово не посещают церковную службу. Впрочем это касается всех православных праздников.
@@moony7144 и моё мнение остаётся таким же: те кто не празднуют не могут отвечать на вопрос как празднуется Рождество или говорить, что праздник никак не отмечается; можно сказать что многие не празднуют, но если говорить о способе празднования теми, кто празднует Рождество, то именно таким образом как я описала выше. Во всех храмах на Рождество не протолкнуться. Так отмечает и моя семья. Вместо того, чтобы говорить, что я говорю неправду, лучше опишите как празднует Рождество ваша семья и пожалуйста отдельным комментарием.
Philippines, Spain and Mexico be like:
Feliz Navidad, Amigos. 😉😉😉
In Turkiye, Christmas is celebrated among the 1-2% minority Christian population, including Christian-Turks, Greeks, Armenians, and Assyrian Christians. Christian-Turks, Greeks, and Armenians, being Orthodox, celebrate it on January 6th, while Assyrians celebrate on December 25th. Additionally, half of the country celebrates New Year's Eve on December 31st. The other half, the conservative Muslim segment, does not celebrate in any way. As an irreligious Turk, I must say that Christian holidays seem more beautiful to me than Muslim holidays. I wish everyone a Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas from Australia. Hope you all have a great time.
It's already Christmas in Australia, mate? (I ask 'cause that time zone stuff :p)
I'm Italian and La Befana comes on the 6th of January to bring small gifts and sweets to the good children. On Christmas we still have Santa, known as Babbo Natale (Father Christmas).
Merry Christmas from Italy! ❤🇮🇹
Right. The gifts on Christmas are brought by either Santa or Baby Jesus (especially in the South). In some northern cities (namely Bergamo or Brescia) the “bringer of presents” is Saint Lucia on the 13th of December. While the Befana is her own thing.
Another fun little tidbit. In all of Scandinavia (Norway, Sweden, Iceland and more) they celebrate Christmas on the 24th insted of the 25th in more western countries like the U.S or Canada (im from canada) so they get their presents early. They also do the "Santa swim," where people dress themselves in Santa hats and jump into the ocean or river. Marry Christmas 🎄
Germany celebrates at the 24th too :)
@notnaanton630 oh cool I actually forgot about that one. Opps 😅
@@unicatsrdabest Merry Christmas🎅
@notnaanton630 Merry Christmas to you, too
I don't want to marry on christmas, thanks
In Russia borsch is not Christmas dishes. The most important and stereotipic food on russian table are olivie (salad), "herring under a fur coat"(also salad), holidez (cold dishes from meat and shampagne.
Also, Christmas celebrating just by religios families at 7 January. And the mist important holiday is The New Year
Merry Christmas, Hyvää Joulua and С Рождеством❤
I need to say it to someone: I'm Russian and I hate russian Christmas dishes!😱 Slimy, ugly-looking salads and alcohol - great holiday meal, is'nt it? No fried meat, no desserts... I hope finnish Christmas cuisine is better
This is a pretty good description of French Christmas.
P. S. : In Spain, this nougat is called « turron ».
in venezuela we go to the "9 misas de gallo" too, but depending on where you are, it may be called "misas de aguinaldo" at 5-6am the 9 days before Christmas, and the rollerskating thing is mostly in one region of venezuela called zulia, that music is gaitas zulianas and you can hear it all year long in the zulia but sice november to december you will hear that music all over the country since is like the Christmas music of choice. i love when my mother tell me how she used to go rollerskating on Christmas all over the town with a bunch of people, friends and familly
I love how the song for Mexico is sung by a Puerto Rican
Yep, it's Jose Feliciano
Bit of a correction:
In Italy, gifts are brought by Santa. The Befana festivity happends on the 6th of January, where it is believed that the witch brings sweets and candy to children during the night
Before Santa came in Italy, kids believe gifts are brought by Baby Jesus. Moreover in some parts of Italy is celebrated Saint Lucy (eg Southern and Eastern Lombardy) that she bring gift to kids. Therefore some Italian children have three time presents during Xmas Time lol :)
Here in Mexico (or at least in my family) we eat a meat called "lomo", romeritos, bacalao, caldo de camarón and a semi- dessert called ensalada de manzana, it's not exactly a salad, but we call it that way.
Merry Christmas everyone!
Dunno how many countries do it. But in Colombia we often celebrate ahead of the 24th with 9 days called "las novenas" which just means " the nine days". Its as i understand from a boring catholic tradition, but in colombia its nine days where you gather with family and friends, sing one of several songs, and if want, play with some instruments (tutaima, ven a bellen, etc.) Then recite some prairs. After thats we play villancicos and eat food, usually consiting of Natilla and Buñuelos. Simple, but fun tradition. Christmas day we celebrate on the 24th and if we open presents itll be on the 25th ij the morning. But most people will juat doo that the 24th at midnight since for many, the 25th we just dont celebrate as Christmas.
Merry Christmas from Hellas 🇬🇷
Thank you, I'm from France and u confirm that you are right about Christmas in France, I just want to say that the bûche can be a cake but it's also can be ice cream that we call " bûche glacée"
Subbed because you actually explained how it is instead of just putting the images and music. Merry Christmas from Wisconsin
Here in Estonia, we celebrate on 24th and before that every day throught the advent time elves or drwarves bring candy to children's stockings EVERY night and we eat blood sausage, sült, sauerkraut and potatoes. People go to the cemetery and put candles on the graves of their loved ones so it's really beautiful in the dark in the graveyard on Christmas eve.
Merry Christmas from America to the whole world! God bless!
ケンタッキーフライドチキンを用意しなきゃ！
メリークリスマス！
Spains older brother, Portugal 🇵🇹, celebrates Christmas by decorating the pine tree with the gifts and with a nativity scene, then we have codfish "bacalhau" and have many sweets made for the event, like filhoses, rabanadas, sonhos, letria, leite de creme, and we acompany them with port wine and national spirit drinks like aguardente, bagaço, moscatel, favaios, etc
As an Austrian, I'm happy we're explicitly featured here
great spin on the usual vids, love the channel
Poland Christmas is the best, as a foreigner i absolutely loved it! 🇵🇱❤️
I always like seeing quaint international decorations. And the Palermo city tree floating down the street.
Rockefeller Center *used* to get trees exclusively from my state (*grumble grumble*)
I truly love your channel so much!
I am from Italy. "Befana" brings gift only the 6 January. On 25 December we have Santa Claus, in Italy called "Babbo Natale".
Feliz navidad 🎉❤🥂🎅
Merry Christmas from Canada!! 🇨🇦😁
🎅🤶🧑🎄🎄🎁
On christmas eve (24.12) we in poland usualy go visint eldest living person (unless there're some circumstances) such as in my case maternal grandma apartment and we eat 12 dishes, which include: breaded carp, other breaded fish (this one brought from my home), cabbage with peas, dumplings(pierogi) with mushroom and cabbage, cabbage rolls with groats, other cold served dishes with fishes or mushroms or salad with mayonaise and sweets. On christmas (25.12) it's usualy going to church at certain hour and going to cemetary and on second day of christmas, dubed st.Stephen day (26.12) we got a visit from remaing relatives or other relatives visits us again (in case of former those were a paternal relatives and on the second one it's my sister with her husband and my niece), eating breaded fish, sweets and that's how it goes.
In Brazil we eat turkey, cod, Chester ( a genetic modified chicken Is big like a turkey) and panettone. We drink champagne, wine or cider during Xmas and New year. Also eat fruits is common especially Damascus and dried grapes. Santa claus in Brazil is not from Laponia but from Greenland.
Best of luck for christmas from Ireland
Merry Christmas to you! I go to a ROCOR and live in America, so I kind of get double Christmas :)
Welcome back!!
In Korea, if you don't have a lover on Christmas, it's called a solo Christmas. Christmas is the most lonely day for some people. I've been lonely for 25 years.
Philippines pretty much said "one day is not enough"
Feliz navidad 👋🎄
„Szczodry wieczór” is soo weird, never heard about it, where did you take the info about this celebration? On January 6, there is „Three Kings Day” and it’s a free day from work and school and indeed there are parades in cities to celebrate three kings. „Szczodry wieczór” has never been a well-known tradition in Poland.
muy buen vídeo, bueno acá en Chile tenemos el licor navideño "cola de mono" (ni idea del origen del nombre, pero es un café con leche con especias dulces y licor), en la siempre siempre estan las papas duquesas (casi siempre son compradas, son bolitas de papa cocida molida con huevo, mantequilla y harina, que luego son fritas, pero como dije, casi siempre son compradas).
Pero son compradas o no? No me termina de quedar claro :/
@@osasunaitor compradas por lo general, es una lata tener que hacerlas.
Y te faltó decir que le decimos "Viejito Pascuero" a Santa
@@samvel_mmiii también, aunque cuando no da regalos es el viejo ql jajajajajaa.
Feliz Navidad from Spain
In Germany, potato salad with wieners is also a traditional Christmas food.
Awesome. Also, germany does the krampus thing as well.
Joyeux Noel ! from France
England should have used Slade! Christmas for me only starts the moment I hear it randomly on the radio.
I don't want to be the "Uhm Acthually" guy but, La Befana brings gifts on the 5/6 of January, we believe in Santa and he brings gifts on christmas, we also have the Advent tradition too
I know, but as you may have noticed, it's extremely complicated to provide more information than it already has, and since Santa is too globalized, it is more worth mentioning something more characteristic of the country
@@giorgiobuscaglione5393 a based story that no one knows is about St. Lucy, during the 13 of december, in northern italy we believe that if you leave some hay outside of your house, st. Lucy will come to bring you some candies and her donkey will eat the hay , but if you don't leave the hay or you try to look into St. Lucy's eyes , she will rip your eyeballs out off your head and make you blind
And people say that Krampus is the scariest christmas legend
メリークリスマス ❤🎄
Merry christmas from finland🇫🇮🎅🤶
Actually Befana brings sweets (not presents) on January 6th, the day of the Epiphany (the name Befana comes from Italian Epifania)
Waited the whole vid to see Peru…
Here we celebrate from 24th night to 25th early morning. Most commonly people prepare a whole turkey with a special fill por 24th's dinner, but I know that some people make a pork dish or even just order food. We also make hot chocolate (even though it's summer) and there's also the “Reyes magos” thing.
In Argentina the archetypical dish is Asado, usually served with some kind of salad and is prepared for the dinner of Christmas Eve, the next day, the 25th, people usually eat the leftovers and no one cooks. Other typical dishes are vitel tone, bondiola or arrollado, empanadas are not that typical of that day neither are breadcrumbs sandwiches. The typical dessert is fruit salad or pionono. At midnight adults toast with crider and eat panettone while children open their presents. As it is Summer here many people dinner outside on the backyard.
Merry Christams!! 🎉
Feliz navidad consumista jorgio.
Merry christmas and a happy new year
I think most people in America typically eat something else other than Turkey for Christmas Dinner, since we usually have that a month earlier for our Thanksgiving. Of course there are many people that still do Turkey but other common mains for Christmas dinner can include seafood, ham (what my family usually does) and beef prime rib is popular too. Some people traditionally do goose here too. And many Italian American families eat several different seafood dishes. Whatever your dinner traditions are, I hope you had a Merry Christmas!
🇮🇹: the Befana is an ancient roman legend and mostly gives sweets on the night of the Epiphany (January 6th) and if you have been naughty she brings you fake and sugary coal. Santa Claus brings gifts on Christmas Eve.
Every Christmas, I try to convince my family to eat Panettone. I find it so delicious
As a Japanese, the depiction of Japan is appropriate.
Merry Xmas Georgio Buscaglione!
Merry Christmas everyone
Correction on Italy: La Befana comes on epiphany (Jan 6th) bringing sweets for good kids and carbon for bad kids + we don't eat meat on the 24th and 25th but instead yeah pasta but more than anything we eat fish! Good video btw ❤️
Merry Christmas Bro
Tamales, pozole, pan dulce y abuelita during the holiday season 🇲🇽😎
Haha. England is 100% true and awesome. I live in England and I just had this Christmas day. It's amazing.
Buon Natale 😊
0:44 really like this mod kinda geezer. Love that special touch
In Italy we don't eat pasta in Christmas 🎄 we eat meat like Pheasant or rabbit (i trasleted the two things cause i don't know how to say it in English😂) and yes we eat Many sweets like padoro , panettone and torrone even a lot of chocolateb and la befana Is on January
I love the fact Australia and New Zealand always have a Boxing Day test 🏏
oh, the german and austrian traditions are very similar to the croatian ones! we also have krampus, christmas markets, advents and pretty much the same christmas meals :)
Romanians celebrate Christmas by eating sarmales, Mici, meatballs, snitzel, periwinkle soup, and for dessert Papanași some traditional Romanian goodies And we also have customs to sing carols about the birth of the Lord Jesus And since the new year in Romania there is a tradition Sorcova. It is a Romanian tradition in which children sing the Sorcova song to their family members and receive the money And from the New Year, Romanian television stations are counting down to the new year And of course the famous firecrackers, only that people started setting them off before Christmas at night and many Romanians are disturbed every year ♥️🇹🇩🇹🇩
About Orthodox Christians, they are in two branches :
Old Style Orthodox- Julian Cendar
New Style Orthodox- Gregorian Calendar
The similarity is at Easer, but still exist religious problems....
En México igual es tradición pelearse por los terrenos de los abuelos. 🤑🎉
Tradicion latinoamericana la verdad
Mientras están los cadetes de linares en la bocina xddd
Im irish but ive never went christmas swimming before, and id dint even know it was a tradition untill i saw this.

Whats funny is that in the UK, the shops start selling Christmas items in Early November, or even in OCTOBER in some cases.
Eating Turkey at Christmas here isn't that common like it is in the USA. We usually eat other meat instead, like Chicken and Ganon. (Ganon is a type of meat we eat here.)
The BBC (our broadcaster) is well known for their "Christmas Idents" in December. On the day itself the BBC put on a lot of Children's programmes, movies and performances of such.. also the English monarch (usually, if not, always) makes a speech every Christmas.
Shops in our country sell a lot of "advent calendars." where you open little doors each day, to reveal some sort of suprise. majority of the time, it will be milk chocolate.
And a merry Wojak Christmas to you too
I already know who Krampus is he is the devil version of Santa Claus.
Nope, actually dishes like borsch or pancakes are not Christmas dishes. Usually it's something like crab salad (made with crab sticks containing no real crab meat, to be honest...) or Olivier, sometimes even called Russian, salad.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, everybody! 🎉🖖
an interesting video, good job)
You wrong about what we eat. I mean Kutia is kinda ok but it's not that usual. It's Olivier salad, Tangerines, herring under "fur coat" and chicken roll. And new year is bigger and mor important than Christmas. Probably because of Soviet times.
I can confirm we in Albania don't celebrate Christmas despite we had Christmas trees all over Tirana.
merry christmas
Merry Christmas
In Atlantic Canada we do the same as Ireland! Even the same music!
Merry Christmas everybody.
or what ever you celebrate.
I have just a little correction for italy. "La befana" arrives typically the 6th of january (that day is said "epifania" and celebrate the arrival of the 3 "magi" kings at Bethlehem). We have Santa Claus the 25th of december, called "Babbo Natale ".
Amazing video though
Have a Merry Christmas to all and all have a good New Year.
It's funny how the songs are in up to 10 different languages but according to the subtitles they are all in English
You make good Videos
La gaita marabina es lo mejor de la navidad en Venezuela :) eso sí, el resto de venezolanos no nos quieren en todo el año, pero en navidad nos aman JSJSJAJ
Portugal should have been mentioned due to the fact that we eat cod fish in the cristhmas eve
You should have played Sheila's 'Los Reyes Magos', the Spanish-language version of 'Les Rois Mages', in the bit about Christmas in Spain.
Should have used "Christmas in our Hearts" for the Philippines. It's become a meme here
Danke 🤙🤙
Northen Mexico is very cold. But of the rest is warm.
In Spain you have more days of Holiday 🗿
Im greek and we decorate Christmas trees too.
Actually in italy the gift are brought by santa claus on 25 december and by the befana on 6 january
