Wow, a very nice video sir and as a NC native myself, it appears you nailed down many of the differences very well. If I could make a very small suggestion. The text overlay would have been a little easier to fully read and enjoy if they hadn't changed over so fast on some of the longer sentence phrases, maybe an extra second for the longer ones might have made it a little easier to absorb both the text and the very great sights. Otherwise, it is an absolute great video as all of your videos seem to be very well done!
