Another 50 geography facts: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWnZZX2Kgap9q8U Some things i have to clear: 1) France actually has the most timezones, with 13. 2) Java island is in Indonesia, not in Malaysia as i said in the video. 3) Besides Nepal, some other non-rectagle flags are the flag of Switzerland and Vatican City. I should've used non-quadrilateral, but i thought of saying it in an easier way. 4) Greenland is a part of Denmark. This video was made in November. Since November I've improved my geography skills.

[@gabrielalmeida6917]

One thing I found, France has the most timezones with their overseas territories.

[@Based_Geography]

a square is a rectangle but a rectangle is not a square, so you are still correct :)

[@chotch8977]

It’s a common misconception to think Death Valley had the highest tempature, when it was actually the lut desert in Iran, with around 70 degrees Celsius

[@aaaruiddppin]

pink is the rarest color with it being only on flag of Spain

[@biff1019]

azores archipeligo is Actually in Europe NOT north america meaning portugal is only in 2 Continents

[@somerandomdudefromsomewhere]

1) The Island of Java is in Indonesia, not in Malaysia. 2) Greenland is not actually a country, it is an overseas territory of Denmark. 3) Besides Nepal, the other non-rectangular flags are the flags of Switzerland and Vatican City. 4) Actually, the Philippines has around 7,640 islands. 5) Indonesia has a flag that is wider than Monaco's. 6) You put the dot on Libya, not Tunisia.

[@babvi2009]

There is no one there to take readings is there? A weather observatory is supposedly located at only one point. The ice drifts around.

[@Nooben2550]

6:00 my way of seeing which flag is which is this, in poland it snows so snow is on top since it falls down, indonesia and monaco is by the coast and has alot of foam from water rushing in so white at the bottom, then i just see the size of the flag to determine which is indonesia and which one is monaco

[@CristiGeography]

🧠

[@MrPizzaeeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

I tell indonesia and monaco apart by looking at which ones darker. Monaco is slighty darker.

In Nigeria the life expectancy is 53years but my grandfather lived for 104years

[@Amogus-qw5ph]

@@ugwuanyicollins6136 the reason is because so many children die before age 5 in Nigeria so it drags the life expectancy down.

Grand Grandmother?

[@richardhudson4649]

My favourite: France's longest land border is with Brazil. Canada has land borders with 2 countries. USA (which is the longest land border in the world) and Denmark on Hans Island, which is the 3rd shortest land border) 50% of Canadians live below the 49th parallel (the big long straight land border between Canada and the USA) The southernmost point in Canada is Middle Island in Lake Erie. More Americans live north of this point, that people who live in Canada.

Nepal isn’t the only flag that isn’t rectangular. Switzerland is a square.

[@sebastiansgalaxy4810]

Mistakes: 1) Nepal is not the only country that does not have a square flag. Switzerland and Vatican City also have non rectangular shaped flags! 2) Azores is part of Europe! 3) Java island is in Indonesia, not Malaysia! 4) Greenland is not a country, it is owned by denmark! 5) Northen most capital is nuuk, the capital of greenland! 6) Papa new guinea has 823 languages, not 840! 7) The highest tempreture on earth was 71ºC not 57! 8) The longest plane travel is London, UK to Sydny, Australia! 9) France actually has the most timezones, with 13! 10) Wales flag has a dragon arm because there is a dragon in it's flag! 11) The oldest person was 119 not 96!

[@CristiGeography]

1) I like how in 4 ur saying Greenland is not a country but in 5 u say Greenland's a country. No, Copenhagen is not the northernmost capital in the world. 2) Papua new guinea does have +840 languages, most of them are dialects tho. Give it a google 3) The 71*C was never confirmed though, if you look on wikipedia there's a 91C claim too... So I just took the most official claim. 4) London to Sydney doesn't have a direct flight, so New York to Singapore is the biggest direct flight. 5) The rest are explained in the pinned comment, and idk what you mean with the last 2 facts, i haven't included them in the video..

Yes, California has a larger population than Canada, which is more than 20 times larger in area. Japan's land area is ~10% smaller than California. yet has more than 3 times the population of California or Canada. However, most of Canada's land area is VERY cold. Over 80% of Canadian's live in metropolitan areas near its southern border with the United States.
