Disputed Territories of the World: An explanation 🌎🌍 [ASMR Maps]

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
I hope you like this ASMR Geography video! It contains whispers and some soft spoken parts with a Welsh accent.

My parents also used Timbuktu as an expression to say something was a long way away. Such as, “It’s as far as from here to Timbuktu”.

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 :)

[@WelshASMR82Maps]

I'm glad that I understood it correctly at least! Thank you for clarifying ☺️

[@12SPASTIC12]

> India limits Islam on their side More like Kashmiri Muslims in India committed ethnic cleansing against their Hindu neighbours in the early 1990s. But sure, "we limit Islam" in Indian Kashmir. Let's go with that so we can pretend there are faults on both sides etc. etc

Belize does speak Spanish widely. It’s the native language of most of the country’s population (and most of the others speak Creole or Indigenous languages). English as an official language was because it was colonized by the British; a lot of people there speak it as a second or third language.

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 heard that Quebec is disputed territory of Canada

[@WelshASMR82Maps]

I don't think it is disputed, but I remember there being a referendum to leave when I was younger

[@wasserruebenvergilbungsvirus]

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.

American territories were never spanish colonies, they were recognised as provinces, known as viceroyalties, with the same rights as if they were Madrid, Andalucía or whatever territory on the peninsula, with the same representation in our Courts

Thank you for clarifying!

Morocco doesn’t control all the Western Sahara.

[@radidoussama9844]

@@valeok8357 no it does bro there are cities like laayoun and dakhla and a lot its 100% controled by morocco but the search engines in your country will show you the opposite, when i search the map from morocco's internet it shows me the whole map.

@@radidoussama9844 Yes, Morocco controls the most part of Western Sahara, but it doesn’t control all of it.

@@radidoussama9844 If you’re from Morocco is obvios that if you search for your country’s map is going to show you with all the Sahara region, it is like searching Russia in Russia with all the occupied territories from Ukraine, but the reality is that Morocco doesn’t control all the Western Sahara.
