[@DontFeedTheTrolls]

Conflict of Nations is the most dangerously addictive, life-ruining game i have ever played! The game never sleeps so if you have to go to work or go to sleep, you may wake up to find someone has destroyed all your units! THE ONLY way to win is to play constantly - day and night for weeks at a time, sometimes months! If you allow push notifications, you will receive several notification every hour, 24 hours a day, non-stop!

In case anyone else was also confused by Simon's stating that the Kamil Crater was in SW Egypt, but his map shows a pin nearer the Red Sea, his map pin is actually the marker for Egypt. The lat/long that will paste into Google Earth is 22.0183058,26.0876547 for the crater, or just search on the name.

Hasn't been discovered by Europeans. As pointed out with regards to the rain forest, the local people were well aware of the forest, and I'm sure there were people in Greenland aware of the rivers, etc.

[@N37L]

To whoever inserts your video clips... "heavily mined" at 9:23 refers to ordinance, not mining operations!

Google earth has some curious gaps. You can actually use it to get a street view of parts of Pitcairn Island - one of the most remote inhabited islands on Earth - but *not* Islesboro; a considerably larger and more heavily populated island that is only a few miles off the coast of Maine and has actual paved roads.

@@KaimasterXD True. I have been fascinated by the place and its history (having read the Bounty Trilogy many times, starting from when I was a kid) and it's cool to see what it looks like today. Thing is, the other place I mentioned is where I spent many summer vacations growing up because much of my extended family lived there, and it kind of bugs me that I can't see *it* on Google Maps street view *at all* despite being far more accessible (just a twenty-minute ferry ride from the mainland dozen round strips a day as opposed to a several day voyage anywhere a mere handful of times in an entire year).

Do you get paid for doing work for them that they should have done but for some reason didn't?

[@kitefan1]

@@michaelhendricks9462 This is way late, sorry! I'm completely convinced that they were told they need background sound so they put some in. Thoughty2 was awful for a while but hasn't been annoying me lately. It also seems to depend on what device your are listening on. I've listened to KZbin videos where the background sound overwhelmed the narrator and no one complained in comments and vice-versa. I find using a mono output sometimes helps. I think Simon fronts a large team and I think they get paid for all of his channels (12?, I lose count.)

As always, Simon is such a great narrator. And i was wondering how commercial logging works? Companies can just go & cut down anywhere they want like that? Who do they even pay??

[@australien6611]

They pay off the landowner which is often the government

[@laynedoe3455]

And no, there are more strict laws on where people can log. Lots of places you have to replant the trees.

[@sleeeto]

Very strict laws. IKEA is getting sued for going into Romania and cutting down forests for their furniture

[@pakde8002]

Depends where the logging is being carried out. Commercial logging just means logging as part of a business venture. It can be large scale or very small scale. There are restrictions on logging in nearly all countries but in developing countries those restrictions are pretty much ineffective due to lack of resources to enforce restrictions and corruption.

[@bartellemy9955]

In Mozambique (I live in central Mozambique) the government "owns" all the land, you buy leases for areas and have to declare the intended use to local administration. Theoretically loggers are supposed to reforest what they cut down and only cut by schedule (size and species), but that rarely happens.

[@aalhard]

Editor missed the mark on the "mines" in Mozambique....💥

[@sonuvabitch]

I'd like to think that their lack of knowledge about landmines is a good thing for humanity's sake. They're a scourge on populations far beyond any conflict cessation.

[@shawnvofficial]

Clever, advertising a map based game on a video about Google Earth. I ended up watching half the ad because I couldn't tell where the ad ended and the video began

[@bwielgus]

Interesting video but what's going on with the stock footage usage?? Talking about Greenland and you show a map of Poland and then you talk about the impact of heavy mining near the rainforest but show minnig using blasting rather than landmines, which is what I assume was actually the issue? Is this stock footage by AI?
