  • In this interesting ASMR video I go through several countries and territories in the world, one continent at a time, that are perceived as disputed and not fully recognised, as I know this is a very highly searched fact on Google. I don't proclaim to know everything, so please add any facts and corrections in the comments section! I hope you enjoy the video!
    DESCRIPTION
    The video is calming and relaxing, hopefully helping you with sleep problems and insomnia. I am speaking in a male deep voice with a Welsh accent and switch between soft spoken and whisper voice.
    FEATURES

    Hey, i gotta say it’s brave of you to make this video! As an Indian, Kashmir has always been a taboo point of discussion. Your explanation of it is basically correct tho. The King of Kashmir turned to India for help, but it was too late by the time Pakistan had some form of control. In fact, the map in your book shows all of Kashmir as part of Pakistan, which isn’t the case. Of course, today, neither country is innocent. Pakistan has kicked out all Hindus from there side of Kashmir and India limits Islam on their side. It’s a sad situation 😔
    Anyways, great video as always :)

      Abkhazia as any other region of Georgia has been a seperate kingdom or duchy at some point in history. In 8th-9th century all of the territories have been unified in one state.. After that in various centuries they would break apart due to several empire invasions, like Mongols, Persians, Ottomans, Russians and etc.

    I believe that Bavaria is close to becoming disputed. Bavaria is the home of Nationalism and have the direct right to a lot of Nazi books. Bavaria also has the highest German percentage of people and have a very large different to most states in Germany. I could see a split of Baden snd Württemberg as the two have before due to some difference. Württemberg could apart of Bavaria rather than being their own state. I believe Bavaria should be independent as they have a rich economy, strong nationalism and will be a great use to Bavarians in Austria and Sud Tyrol.

      It's not exactly disputed (there is no country recognising Québec as an independent state, and the government of Québec itself doesn't make that claim either).
      However, there were two referenda about Québec independence in the past, both ended narrowly with people deciding against independence. The Québec independence movement still exists and Québec is acknowledged by the govt of Canada as a "nation within a nation" due to its distinct culture and language.
      Maybe one day Québec will be an independent nation (I hope so because I love Québec :D) but for now it is part of Canada.

    In the USA Hawaii is a disputed territory. The USA overthrew their monarchy and it was annexed as a colony, where local people and immigrants worked in essentially feudal conditions for the profit of companies like Dole. Indigenous Hawaiians to a large part don’t identify with the colonial occupiers and believe it should be independent. It ended up being important for Americas military in WW2. So of course war and colonialism go hand in hand.
