EUROPE • 50 dances in 5 minutes! (Vasilis Dance)

The subcontinent of Eurasia (Europe) is mostly considered a continent in its own right because of its great physical size and the weight of its history and traditions. Europe is commonly considered to be separated from Asia by the watershed of the Ural Mountains, the Caspian Sea, the Caucasus Mountains, the Black Sea and the waterways of the Bosphorus Strait. European culture is the root of Western civilisation, which traces its lineage back to ancient Greece and ancient Rome. The fall of the Roman Empire and the subsequent Migration Period marked the end of Europe's ancient history, and the beginning of the Middle Ages. Renaissance humanism, exploration, art, and science led then to the modern era we all are currently.

Republic of Kosovo is not a fully recognized sovereign state, claimed by Serbia. Cyprus and Armenia are completely in Asia, but based of culture and history are considered part of Europe. Turkey, Russia, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan and Georgia are transcontinental countries, having lands in both Europe and Asia. Ιceland is half in Europe and half in America, but it is considered Europe.

Hi from Ireland, thank you very much for including us! There are two distinct styles of solo traditional Irish dancing - step dancing which is virtuosic but more formal, and sean nós dancing, which is more relaxed and semi-improvised. Within sean nós dancing, there are many different approaches. There are also many variations between Céilí & set dancing in groups. I applaud your efforts & look forward to seeing more!

Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan are not connected to European culture. Not geographically, not ethnically, not genetically, not culturally and not even in linguistics. Turkey is sharing some of Europes culture due to the geographical location and the assimilation of dozens of neighbouring and conquered nations. But not ethnically, not in linguistics.

I didn't realise just how many different places these kinds of dances came from! I'm from Australia and a lot of the time i see dances like these irl it turns out it's often a mixture of four or five countries styles. Which is a very Australia thing, mixing cultures like that, although it does make for some nice surprises when you find out just where particular dance moves or styles come from. ❤ Keep dancing everyone

You are not in Europe, not even connected to Europe, your roots are in Altay . You dont share nothing in common with Europe, not the language roots, not ethnicity, not geography, not culture, NOTHING. Just the oil you provide .. So dont include and self welcome yourself into the European community.

[@Sulepuru]

@@VasilisDance I watched :) Thank you! I still like the most this "Suu laulab, süda muretseb" (this tach my heart in some special way). I like your dances very much, my favorites so far are: Norvegian dance (you seems to dance this with so much understanding and respect and soul), Georgian dance (these hands! As far as I know, it is very hard to do right Georgian dance hands and for my eyes you did it) and Egyptian dances (I have feeling, that you had lot of fun with Egyptian music and steps and these suited you very well). Keep dancing :)

[@a_martynovich]

Wow, that was a pretty accurate and aesthetic depiction of those nations' cultures. I should mention though that Kazakhstani dances that I saw when living close to its border were very different to those in the video, but that's probably because I was in the Asian part.

[@spiritofthewinds9089]

3:07 min - I never ever before have been proud of my country. I've always been fascinated by slavic(especially Ukrainian, Czech (Odzemek etc), Slovak), Romanian and Hungarian dances... But now I realize that my own country is not so boring after all! I'm from northern Germany, never been to Bavaria and always hated Schlager and all that typical "German" stuff so I never took a closer look. But this dance has quite some similarities to some of the dances I mentioned! It's not boring at all and very rhythmic, I like it! So thanks very much for this video! Now I finally can be proud a bit of my own heritage :) Also: can anyone tell me what is the song that's played for the Finnish dance?!? :D It's gorgeous!! and somehow sounds familiar, but I can't remember! at 3:32 min

[@helgaioannidis9365]

I'm so glad you liked our dance. Often people from the northern parts of Germany dismiss Bavarian culture as backwards, dumb or fake and unfortunately "Volksmusik" is confused with "volkstümliche Musik". We have a rich culture in Bavaria and we try to preserve it, which makes us often look like we're stuck in older times. But we're just like the people in many other countries that try to connect their traditions with modern life and keep their roots alive.

The Iceland one is haunting😳😂

[@ProcrastinatingPoet]

Welsh country dancing is similar to what is shown for french, France has lots of regional styles, English has clogging and sword dancing (perhaps similar stepping to what was shown for Romania), medieval square dance similar to french, and use of handkerchiefs too. I think Scottish dancing should probably have been shown with a separate flag ;) as it's so different to Welsh/English styles and more similar to the Irish style.

[@VasilisDance]

I totally agree :) But since Scotland is part of the UK, I wanted to represent the UK with this dance, since it's a personal favorite as well :D
