3:10 You've made a major historical mistake. Finland was never a part of USSR (which is important for us in Finland), since Finland became independent in 1917, and Soviet Union was founded in 1922. The October Revolution was slightly before Finland declared independence, but the state called "USSR" wasn't found before 1922. Before that there was a Soviet Russia, which in the beginning struggled of the sovereignity with Russian Provisional Government, which had come into power in the February Revolution. Also, the borders were different back then, you are using the post WW II borders before they existed. Also the borders or Kalmar Union are anachronistic.

This is slightly pedantic - but it is true that Finland was never part of the USSR, but rather of the Tsarist Russian Empire as was. This may also explain (I'm not sure) why Finland is the only Scandinavian country to be a republic not a kingdom.

@@markgourley910 It is not pedantic, for us it is very important, that we have never been part of Soviet Union. It is also the truth. Finland is not Scandinavian, but it is Nordic. Iceland, also a Noric country, is alsoa republic. As for why Finland isn't a kingdom, when it became independent, it didn't have a king. Monarchists and Republicans competed as should it become a monarchy or a republic, and with a temporary majority in the parliament, the monarchists chose Friedrich Karl of Hesse-Kassel from Germany to be the king, but as the First World War soon ended to the loss of the Central Powers, Friedrich Karl abdicated before he was installed, at request, and so Finland became a republic.

Literally every subdivision of Spain is called an "Autonomous Region" (or "Autonomous Community") according to the Spanish Constitution. There are 16 of these Autonomous Communities plus the "Chartered Community" of Navarre and the two "Autonomous Cities" of Ceuta and Melilla. In addition to this, the Spanish Constitution recognises the following nationalities: Andalusian, Aragonese, Balearic, Basque, Canarian, Catalan, Galician and Valencian.

6:47 The thing about Denmark-Norway is that Norway was a separate kingdom in a personal union with Denmark (same king, different goverments, laws, succession laws etc) for most of its history, the Faero islands etc was a part of the *Norwegian* kingdom. As for those wars... There was more then one war, but the way I remember it Denmark-Norway didn't truly join till the UK violated Denmark-Norways neutrality and attacked Caupenhagen, stealing most of the dual kingdoms navy... So it wasn't really Sweden that declared war on us, but rather they took advantage of the situation to start a new war with their arch nemesis the Danes on the same side as the quite powerfull Brits... Then there was Bernadotte...

For example Faroese team does that in UEFA, but Åland doesn't. Their players represent team Finland. The best club team in Åland is IFK Mariehamn, which plays in Finnish top tier league Veikkausliiga. In 2016 they won and became champions.

That was not the reason for the joining of the crowns and the formation of the united kingdom. Scotland was bankrupted after trying to build what is now known as the Panama canal. The Lords of Scotland were offered money, land and titles to sign the Act of Union, which they did, betraying both the Lowland Scots and Highland Scots. Most clans refused to sign, it was mostly only the Lords located around Fife that signed over Scotlands independence. Thankfully Scotland will be independent soon enough, as will Wales.

I don't think you're using the words conservative and liberal correctly... Liberalism is what the Soviet Union was against. You know, the cold war. I think you're using the late 20th century American definitions of the words, and even then not correctly. Liberalism across all countries and times, whatever the slant they put on it, and including in America, shares democracy as the common and core concept. The Soviet Union was not fighting for democracy in Finland. Plus, with conservative, the Finnish Whites were not really that. A revolution is kind of counter to what the word conservatism means. The very word comes from Edmund Burke who was a british guy open to the idea of liberal reforms but felt the french revolution was not worth the cost, so conservatism basically has being anti-revolution as its founding inspiration. It was really a war between the Swedish/German backed liberals and the Soviet backed Communists. So ya, not to be a snarky douche saying "actually" in the KZbin comments but idk, thought I'd point that out.

If I remember my history class right Napoleon had blockade on Britain and wanted Sweden to join it but Sweden was ally with Britain and wasn't going to team up with him so he made a pact with Russia where it would attack Sweden and in that result got Finland.

Not only does Mount Athos disallow women, but females of all species, barring a few exceptions. The best part: it is considered holy because the Virgin Mary thought it beautiful when she walked there.

Wow another americanised westerner who knows nothing about our culture and thinks we are stupid sexist animals The exact same thing is done at female monasteries around the country as they dont let men in This isnt sexist its a part of monasticism as it more or less requires one to cease contact with the opposite gender both for men and women Also the story about the virgin mary is just folklore thats not actually believed Please dont go around judging religions and cultures you dont understand

Scotland and Wales are not "regions" - they are nations. The United Kingdom is not a "nation" - it's a union. It makes as much sense to describe the UK as a country and its parts as regions as it would to describe the EU as a country and France and Germany "regions".

The fact that UK governments act as though the United Kingdom is a country in it's own right doesn't change it either.

No, Washington DC & Puerto Rico are two different issues . There is a push by the current U.S. House of Representatives to make the federal capital (Washington DC) the 51st state. Puerto Rico is not included. But at the same time the political party supporting statehood for Puerto Rico are actively seeking the island to become a state.

England was and is Britain and to this day more than 50% Celtic genetically. The UK is today majority Celtic. Kernoweg, Cymraeg and Gailidh all remain alive. The English royal family remain part Scottish (Stuarts) and part Welsh (Twdwrs) but mostly German (Batternbergs renamed Windsor).
