Yakatutsk 💀 btw the thing with Sakha is that even though it has the coldest winters anywhere on Earth outside Antarctica, it also has warm to hot summers with temperatures hovering around 30 degrees Celsius regularly in July and August and that's a big game changer compared to places like Nunavut and Greenland where the temperature virtually never rises above 10C.

Because sakha is quite far away from any large water body. This allows the change in temprature to be much more drastic. Whereas the temprature in nunavut remains sort of constant throughout the year.

I don't think anyone outside of the US would ever think Texas is big. My province in Canada, Ontario, is nearly 40% bigger. Texas is 695,000 (roughly) KM^2. Ontario is 1,076,000 (also roughly) KM^2. Keep in mind, most Canadian provinces are bigger than, if not comparable in size to Texas 😂💁🏼‍♂️

The Australian Antarctic Territory is 5,896,500 km2 (2,276,700 sq mi), technically making it the largest territorial claim in the entire planet, although perhaps not the largest country subdivision. The population estimate is less than 1000 people 🤯

@@greatpyramid4348 but russia actually have control, population etc there, whereas Antarctica is just ice desert with international scientific stations

[@nickhiscock8948]

All of those claims in Antarctica pre date the Antarctic Treaty and when the Treaty expires in 2050? It will revert back to that state unless a new Treaty is signed.

You make cool videos. But saying "some" before every single measurement is making some of our heads explode. Other than that, thanks for the videos!
