Re Ukraine: Many people wondering if Map Men are legitimising the Russian annexation of Crimea at 2:39. We are not. We had intended to make Crimea a different colour, as a way of saying 'look, sticky outy bit that's also currently disputed', but we just forgot to do it. We are sorry. This KZbin account is not, actually, a Kremlin propaganda bot.

Amazing video! My 13yo is totally obsessed by this -- enough so that he's dragged me down the hole. I ended up writing a program to calculate the squareness of countries, and according to my metric Egypt is indeed the winner at 89.5% square, followed by (North) Sudan and Cote D'Ivoire both at just over 83%. Interestingly (to me at least), these seem to be the only countries that score higher than a circle, which scores exactly 2*sqrt(2)-2, or roughly 0.828, on my metric. So rejecting countries for being "too round" may not be valid, at least not if you're interested in finding square-ish countries beyond the top 3.

Lyrics of The Squareness of the Countries (I made that up to be a name to the song): Someone's emailed us asking which country's shape is most like a square. What a stupid question. Totally pointless. Slovakia? ~ no. Georgia? No. Bangladesh. No, Bangladesh looks like a wizard. You think everything looks like a wizard. Ghana. Too long. North Macedonia. Too round. Liberia? No. Malaysia. Jay, Malaysia is not a square. But there must be one somewhere. Not in Oman or the U.A.E., and Yemen's more of a rectangle. Yes, I can see. Russia's nothing like a square. Too long as I'm aware. Mali starts off strongly, but right here is goes to pot. Burkina Faso is irregular, four-sides is not. Hmm... Italy's a boot. So is Papua New Guinea. What about Benin and Togo? No, they're both far too skinny. What about these little countries, Costa Rica, Lebanon? There's no square in Singapore, Brunei, Mauritius or Gabon. *Quick deep breath* Kuwait looks like a little thumb, Madagscar looks quite lean. Burundi looks quite like a heart, Qatar looks like a bean. India's a diamond and Slovenia's a splot. cuba is very long and thin and both Koreas are short and squat. Mozambique has got too many sides, Uzbekistan as well. Little Paraguay's no paradigm, Mauritania' an L. And Malawi's like a seahorse, Guinea-Bissau's a weathered rock. And Nauru's nearly a circle and Somalia's a sock. France is famously a hexagon, that fact is quite well known. But it's not the only one, it's joined by Sierra Leone. What about these landlocked countries, like Nepal or South Sudan? They're not square and nor are Denmark, Finland, China, or Iran. Luxembourgers are all squares which their borders don't reflect. And Australia's a cat dog, and Japan's we must reject. Quatemala has two squarish sides in this bit in the north. But it won't meet our criteria 'cause it needs a needs a third and fourth. - Timor-Leste? - Doesn't pass the test. - Moldova? Guinea? - Don't be silly. - Little Rwanda? - Doesn't stand a hope in h---. - Nor does Israel. - Are we seriously going to go through every country? - Yes, I think it's important. Both the U.S.A . and Canada have squares in large amounts. But we are only counting countries and states don't count. Poland would look square if it invaded to the south. Kazakhstan looks like a turtle with a leaf stuck in its mouth. Despite a square's efficiency, Germans don't come close. And Peru is like a resting dog, and Guyana's like a ghost. Ethiopia and Swizerland look like potato wedges. Norway, Sweden and New Zealand all have far too crinkly edges. If have a lot of coastline then your sides will not be straight. So the squareness of Philippines, Greece and Ireland won't be great. Tajikistan's quit funky, as is elephant shaped Thailand. There's no square in Indonesia's 18,000 tiny islands. If your country's made of islands then a square you'll never be. There are loads of island nations that are mostly empty sea: *Quick breath* Trinidad and Tobago, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, the Solomon Island, the Seychelles, the Maldives, Micronesia, Fiji, the Marshall Islands, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Sao Tome and Principe, the Bahamas, Cape Verdi, Tonga, Vanuatu. The Netherlands is flat, although its edges do not fit. And the following are countries with a sticky outy bit: There's Afghanistan, Namibia, the D.R.C.'s got two. There's Ukraine, Venezuela, Eritrea, Cyprus and Kosovoo! - Is Morocco square? - No, it's more a stair. - Kiribati? - Not square alas. - Senegal? - Not square at all. - San Marino? - San Mari-no The C.A.R. so near, so far, Botswana's like a flounder. Chad looks like Jay Leno, Eswatini couldn't be rounder. Mongolia looks like a bat, the Congo's looking kind of foxy. Myanmar's like a genie and not slightly boxy. Belize has one edge here that's straight, but this bit's rather lumpy. Algeria and Kenya are pentagons, Honduras is too bumpy. Sri Lanka's like a raindrop, Kyrgyzstan's a bird in flight. While Iraq and Jordan's lines are straight, the angles aren't just right. Colombia's kind of squarish though its borders are quite rough. And Iberia would pass, but Spain's alone's not square enough. If Bolivia expanded, then a square it just might be. Nicaragua would look square if you viewed it in 3-D. Little Liechtenstein and the Argentines are not square in the least. The Dominican Republic, that just tapers to the east. Lesotho's sort of squarish, but the angle's on a wonk. Cameroon is like a chicken with a huge badonkadonk. Mexico? No no no no. Portugal. Too thin, too tall. The Saudis? Too much on a slant. The Vatican? The Vati-can't. Listing every country by its shape is not an easy job, when inevitably loads of them only look like a blob. So to make things go more efficient, as I'm sure you've got the gist. Here are all the blobby countries in a quick compiled list: *DEEP BREATH* Andorra, Antigua and Barbuda, Austria, Barbados, Belgium, Belarus, Bhutan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Cambodia, Czechia, Djibouti, Dominica, Estonia, Granada, Hungary, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, Romania, Serbia, Saint Lucia, Tanzania, Uruguay, Zimbabwe. Samoa's like a butterfly whose wings have been removed, But add Ecuator and Bahrain, and it's massively improved. Little Monaco's so tiny you can see the piers within. Chile's very very very very very long and thin. Uganda cannot be a square, because all of the lakes. The Gambia, Vietnam, and Panama all look like snakes. Haiti, Croatia, and Zambia all have shapes that wrap them around. Syria's just a bit too slopey, and El Salvador's too long. That doesn't rhyme. Palau looks like a jellyfish, Pakistan looks like a duck. Azerbaijan looks like a bird that's been run over by a truck. This monkey is Armenian, this shooting star's Laotian. Jamaica, Malta, and Niger are creatures from the ocean. Greenland's not a real country, even though it's really big. The U.K. looks like an old witch sitting sideways on a pig. Comoros would if it were glued. Some parts of Tuvalu look rude. Turkmenistan looks like something ot another. Tunisia and Albania look like each other. SOUTH AFRICA'S TOO WOBBLY, BULGARIA'S TOO NOBLY. BRAZIL IS TOO TRIANGULAR, TURKEY IS TOO RECTANGULAR. Now the only countries left are ones whose squareness are the best. If you know which ones are coming we're incredibly impressed. Little Montenegro's square if you rotate it some degrees. South Sudan has left behind a very square North Sudanese. The angles in Angola mean it's nearly good to go. And Nigeria comes close, although it bulges down below. Libya is nearly a square, it's more a parallelogram. And Cote d'Ivoire and Suriname do well in our exam. Equatorial Guinea's very square, but unfortunately. Since its capital's on an island, then the squarest it can't be. So the winner of our contest! Fitting all our tight prediscriptions. It's the squarest of the squarest! The nation of the Pharaohs! The land of Cleopatra! The country where the Sphinx is! It's the land of the Egyptiaaaaaaaans!! Pah! Any more interesting emails come in? There's one email asking for every capital city of the world. D'oh, that would have made a much better song.

map men being translated as "男性の地図” (dansei no chizu) in japanese is so funny to me, it's literally "men's map" or "a man's map". took me a while to realise it was supposed to be map men lol. a more accurate way to say it would be 地図の男性 (chizu no dansei), lit. "map's men" the whole thing translates as "dear volunteer, can you translate this sentence? thank you! men's map" EDIT: i just put into google translate basically what i wrote above except with "thanks a lot" and "map men" and it came out with the exact phrasing in the video which honestly makes the whole thing even funnier
Oh yeah, I remember that the "no" possessive being the other way around from the Indo-European languages I was used to was really confusing to me when I was learning a bit of Japanese! I guess they fell into the same trap.

@trickster18333 жыл бұрын
Came here to post the translation, the "dear" here is dear as in "deep affection", notably not a letter opening(which would be more like "ボランティアへ" (To volunteer,). 男性の地図(dansei no chizu) could also be translated as "map of men", as in a map showing where men are; 地図の男性 (chizu no dansei) is still more correct with this interpretation, meaning men of map, or men of the map(s)

It's so fucking incredible to me that you nail the expression for anger in Paraguay, because contrary of what everyone must asume we won't react in spanish in that situation. Let me explain: the expression "nde" it's in guaraní (the native lenguage of the country still speak till this day alongside spanish) and it's so crazy because if you try to translate it it's literally "You", so you have to have so inside knowlege to know that's also used like the expression "hey! 😡" 3:14

If it weren't for the Sinai Peninsula, then Egypt would be more like a trapezoid. In this case, having an extra bit sticking out improves the country's squareness.

Hey Jay, which was more difficult, getting the lyrics right or not laughing? I tried but it was actually very funny

We used autocue and a backing track for the majority of this song. Apart from the spoken intro, which took several excruciating takes and was no laughing matter.
