Who's gonna tell Drew there is a mountain nation between France and Spain called Andorra
The thing is, he knows about Andorra. Idk how he forgot about it.
He is aware of Andorra, he wants a nation to cover the entire mountain range between France and Spain, that's what he was referring to.
Who’s gonna tell drew that that was Portugal
@@buivars euskal herria (?
@@colefrench5105 yes
Drew: i always wanted a little mountain nation between spain and France
Andorra: am i a joke to you
not to mention he was just looking at Portugal there
The Universal stegosaurus lol
Andorra is basically a valley
He also gets Georgia wrong a lot. He will see the name Georgia in the middle of Eastern Europe and think about the state, not realising Georgia is a country itself.

Legit Communism
Indiana =Hoosier
Drew=indianaanan empire
Hoosiers? More like yooper.
Sometimes the most interesting thing in this game is watching the population drop after long wars
Drew: I like this mountain nation in between Spain and France, why no one has done that
Andorra: seriously?
he was talking about one that covers the whole mountain range
As a Mexican historian, I can say that the Aztec empire is bigger than in the past, not only for the Mayans, but because of their control of regions that were the property of the Tarascan, the Tlaxcaltecan or the Arahuacan (a culture that controled actual Cuba). But let´s be honest, the Aztec empire was the most glorious one, so I can live with this
Age of Civilizations II begs to ask the important questions, such as
"What if a Paradox game was more like a fever dream?"
Lets go Hoosiers. Indiana finally placed in the top 5.

"Aztecs"(Mexica) aren't really ancient, should have been Teotihuacan who controlled all of that
Also no they didn't play with heads lmao, they were rubber balls and it was more of a maya thing
Even in an archeological context "Ancient Mexico" is often used to refer to all of Prehispanic America, even the states in the Latepostclassic like the Aztec Empire (and on that note, Aztec does not nessscarily mean Mexica, it can also mean rthe broader Nahua culture/civilization, the Mexica nahua subgroup in Tenochtitlan speffically, or the "Aztec Empire", which is an alliance between the cities of Tenochtitlan, Texcoco, and Tlacopan, plus all their subject tributaries/vassals; some of which were not Nahua and some Nahuas were not inside the empire), Tlaxcala, the Purepecha Empire, etc. Teotihuacan is also after 0AD for the most part, only really growing from a moderately sized town into the massive metropolis (seriously, Teotihuacan got BIGGER THEN ROME in physical area, with most of it still being a dense planned urban grid of stone structures) around 100-200 AD and having it's apex around 500AD.
Teotihuacan absolutely deserves more cred and attention though As I said, it ended up covering an absolutely enormous amount of space, 37 square kilometers, and 22 of those was all a dense grid of stone palaces, temples, residential complexes (notably all of which were large and well furnished, with dozens of rooms, courtyards, rich painted frescos, etc: Virtually the entire 150,000 sized population was living in what was the equivalent of roman villas), had a running water ins some of it;s buildings with toilets and a large plumbing/drainage network which connected with resvoirs, agricultural canals, etc (large interconnected water mangement systems are a pretty common trait of large Mesoamerican cities), with one of it's Plazas's being able to be flooded like the Roman Colosseum.
That being said, while it did have an impressive amount of political reach, conquering Maya city-states around 1000 kilometers away, and cultural influence, establishing archtectural, artistic, and religious norms across the region; it's really hard to say how much area it actually had political control over, due to the lack of written records surviving from the city (unlike Maya cities, there's only a few stellas with writing intact). And even the Aztec Empire didn't directly govern all of the cities and towns it conquered, direct imperial style control is pretty rare in Mesoamerica due to the logistical hurdles no draft animals causes for long distance power projection.
And if your team loses, you lose your head.
@@youtubecensorpolice9112 nop, it was the winner or so it's thought, we have no idea how it went
@@Chactemal We actually don't know for sure if ANYbody was sacrificed with the ball games: Most of the evidence from it is simply iconographic depictions of decapitations in murals and the like at Ball Courts, which could be a purely symbolic art motif, with the ball game being associated with myths involving mythical decpitations of gods/demi gods in various Mesoamerican civilizations. We haven't found any actual sacricial burials we can say for sure come from a ballcourt sacrifice. Even if they did happen, it probably wasn;t a player who got sacrificed, considering that there was a considerable socio-political and economic interest in keeping playuers alive: Nobles would sponsor teams and teams would also represent specific cities or even schools like modern NFL and varisity leagues, and being a ball player was a professional occupation with pay, and they couldn't marry due to them needing to be training constantly. It doesn't make much sense that they'd be sacrificed coinstantly for winning or losing given the work that went into them.
Olmeda are ancient sooo it like the same boy better now about our Mexican history LOl

Japan is really bringing back the Soviet stuff

I was so exited when Indiana was doing well for once. They got top 5, im happy now.
Go Hoosiers!
Yes
same it was so fun to see indiana my state in the top five number four
Me when Mississippi, Texas, Indiana, and Connecticut are the only states that survived-
Out of all the states those 3 survive with Texas. Well I mean Hawaii also survived but it’s Hawaii
When did the Aztecs ever control Cuba?
1266 AD war of the star and the quetzal. Please learn your history it's not all about crusades and war of the Roses the rest of the world existed too.
@@ElComandanteR7 I searched for the war of the star and the quetzal, and there is literally nothing about it
Can you provide a link or a source. It sounds really interesting
Aneesh Sahu i too want to read up on it
@@ElComandanteR7 he just asked a question man
They didn’t, the Taino peoples controlled Cuba and the Aztecs were focused on Mexico and not Cuba, although it’s likely they traded

or nepal, or bhutan, maybe chile and norway if you can stretch the definition far enough
What africa doesnt have many mountains

They are not, The prime minister makes laws and runs the country but the queen os the figurehead and has SOME power.

@@noot8880 officially the queen is the head of state of Canada, so it's a monarchy

In the start Finland was dominating the nordics. Drew looks up there literally a second after finland's gone. GREAT

@Super Winnie Wili the Queen is still technically head of state, and Canada is a constitutional monarchy.

No, they didn't play the game with severed heads, but there was an Aztec legend about a time when a load of gods played each other and the losing team got decapitated.
Nam looking scary as hell to what they normaly do in these video.
I am from Indiana and i never saw them get top 5 ever
Drew: I’ve always dreamed of having like a little mountain nation right here
Andorra: am I a joke to you
They wouldn't use you for labor, you would be sacrificed Drew

I laughed way too hard about Mississippi.
They captured some of the Midwest states before moving north to Capture Canada, and even tried to invade Northeast Europe at one point.
Drew you should put WW2 factions in modern day age of civ 2

Edit: 7:40 Don't worry drew. They used balls made of rubber. Not heads. But they did sacrifice the losers of the game. so... It still barbaric.
What you expect too much in geography or history from an american.
Not to mention the Aztec aren't even an Ancient Civilization. Not even the Maya really were.
@@noahsmith170 I know it's like everything before 1500ad is considered ancient history now
@Skeppy No. They controlled part of México, all of Guatemala, Eastern El Salvador and Eastern Honduras. The Lenca where the ones living in Nicaragua.
The most accepted theory is that the WINNERS were the sacrificed ones, but even then we don't even know if they did it
