Sucre is named after Antonio Jose de Sucre, who led the independence movement in Bolivia. Sugar in Spanish is "azúcar"
Meefantic RK "sucre" means sugar in french
Sorry. But Antonio Jose de Sucre was not a Spaniard. He was born in Venezuela in the city of Cumana. He had belgian ancestry but he was born in Venezuela!
Meefantic RK Gracias por diciendo esto!
Ojo con el mariscal Sucre.
Really because I was watching this and was like "wait really Sucre means Sugar like I always said azucar" hahahaha encima que hablo español y me pregunto eso soy tonta jajajajaj
I feel like this country is very underrated.
It is
@@takefrancotak9881 put real Madrid or Barcelona tô play in lá paz they Will loose bar for local uknown players
Also underrated by us bolivians, we have tons of cool stuff to offer but most of the time we don't do any of it justice
Very much so
Poor countries often are. I'd definately say this is the case for most of the Subsaharan African countries
So in short, Bolivia has :
1. World's highest Capital - *La Paz*
2. World's highest Lake - *Titicaca Lake*
3. World's Largest Mirror - *Salar De Uyuni in Winters*
4. World's most dangerous road - *The Death Road* (debatable)
5. World's largest salt flat - *Salar De Uyuni in Summer*
6. World's driest desert - *Atacoma Desert*
Jesus, what an underrated country.
Facts. I’m proud to be part Bolivian myself 🇧🇴
Atacama Desert is in Chile not in Bolivia :)
Mati Apellido it’s on the border actually
@@matiu7715 i think its shared by both and what is the problem if both share it technically to become longer snake you took their only ocean acess even israel gave back sinnai peninsula to egypt.
Atacama desert is in Chile and Bolivia so there just 5 points xd.
Un-bolivi-able
I’m first not funny
IN-Acre-ditável the Acre dinosaur war
Bo-living it up in Bolivia, baby! Bo-leev it! 👍🏼
I like Pan-African Flag (ADWA) wow Un-bolivi-able Bolivia
GD JAZTY Stfu 😂
So Bolivia is the only place in the world where you can find Inca and Guarani speaking hebrew. GLOBALIZATION.
+rafagd LOL do you even hear about PARAGUAY?
assassinseeveehood
lol, you're right
Zionisation.

Bolivia is the only place on earth
I had a friend who passed when his bus fell of that death road 😢
They should do something about it 😭
Ohh sorry for you. Have you traveled on it? I saw the Top Gear special on Bolivia and it was cool.
Deportivo La Coruña I haven't. I live in Argentina and I'm quite close to Bolivia, I could go some day. But I think maybe I'd prefer to stay away from that road. It would make me sad.
I'm sure it looks cool on TV but it is still quite a deadly road to take.
Lupe Jelena ohh I thought you lived in Bolivia, sorry. Argentina is cool too, my sister's been to Buenos Aires a few times.
I'm sorry to hear about your friend. God Bless & RIP.
JTN Thanks man

Made me laugh too......despite how true it is.....

*Independencia o Muerte!*
I am from Bolivia and you got it 100% right on the history and culture!! Good Job!! Its soo hard for people to understand this country, I am so happy that you enjoyed your visit!
Cami-a thank god the only Bolivian watching this video, greetings from California
Cami-a
All we know is they hate on America a lot.
Like I get that most of them don't like us including Argentina or Honduras but Bolivia and Venezuela are obsessed with it.
+AugustanFinn no we don't!
That's an stereotype, we don't hate Americans at all. Usually foreigners are treated really good here (obviously there are exceptions) but even then Bolivians are known for being welcoming towards foreigners in general.
Most of the country don't share the same political views as the U.S. But that comes from a background...
emanuel osuna hey I'm from California too.
Bolivian People dont hate America , its just a propaganda from the government
My mother is from Cochabamba. I've been to Bolivia so many times and love it more and more every time I go there. Proud to be half Bolivian 😍😍
Bro im the exact same
Same!!
same
Even though Sucre does mean sugar in french. The city of Sucre was named after el Gran Mariscal de Ayacucho Antonio Jose de Sucre (Great Marshal of Ayacucho Antonio Jose de Sucre). A Venezuelan who fought throughout South America for independence from Spain and was the second President of Bolivia. Also Bolivia was named after Simon Bolivar (first president), another Venezuelan responsible for the independence of Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela and even Panama which was part of Colombia those days...
Hipelao, Panama became independent in 1903 long after bolivar died, you are right it was part of Colombia of which Venezuela was part of as well since after independence it was known as republica de la gran Colombia.
Gran Colombia also owned Ecuador and part of what's now Peru. Also Panama is the result of the US under Roosevelt invading Colombia.
Bolivia looks like a great destination to spend vacation
Carlitox b Típico boliviano anti imperialista
John Smith yo no soy boliviano pero visitar ese salar es un sueño para mi... Que tienes contra ellos?
Yeah of course, I was in Salar de Uyuni and were many tourists, it's really amazing for summer break there (January to March)
Carlitox b i am from Tarija, Bolivia , and it is definitely a beautiful place with lots of events all day and night, just be carful at night because it might get a little dangerous
Chile is better
I thought you were going to make a pun on 'believe'!
Inkyminkyzizwoz Meh, saved it for the instagrams.
I don't Boliva
He did it on Belize.
+Inkyminkyzizwoz Belize n' Bolivia, two huge a** flags
+Tina Allen Technically, if he hadn't mentioned that other flag he wouldn't have beaten Belize!
2:51
You made a big mistake. The town of Sucre doesn't take its name from the french word for sugar. It was named in honor of Antonio José de Sucre, one of the heroes of the independence of Bolivia and also its second President.
Azúcar is sugar in spanish
Sugar is sugar in English.
I'm from Bolivia and I had never heard the word "chorita" :(
x2
Cholita maybe
I have never heard of the world chorita as well
Same
When you reach Denmark talk about the Bandi civil wars to gain independence from Denmark
Bandi as in Bandiaterra if you couldn't tell
Emilos Gregoriou that thing was really messed up
Emilos Gregoriou At first I was like huh? Then I was like OOOOOHHHH YOUUUUUUU!!!! HAHAHA
Geography Now 'was like'? What's wrong with 'said' or 'thought'?
bandiaterra was for the april fools thing

lololololol
very funny actually
Because of the triangular house?
Love to Bolivia 🇧🇴 from Belgium 🇧🇪
And from Bolivia I love Belgium! 🇧🇪 been there in early 2020
Salad de Uyuni looks so fascinating from the images, would love to see it personally someday!
Sending lots of love to Bolivia from China! 🇨🇳❤️🇧🇴
Paraguay has a navy as well lol
Ya
+Itz evil Where do they operate? Paraguay river?
G. ShadowBroker Yeah they have river boats
luuchoo G :/ Me no from Paraguay. Thanks for feeling sympathy for them though. Is it that poor?
luuchoo G Damn. Are you bolivian? Because I remember that parguay took a big chunk of bolivia in the 20s...
I fear for the comments section next video.
***** yeah....serbs are going to get pissed :(
xxilluminati xx Maybe, maybe not. Well see ;)
Or Kosovo, Tibet and many of the other debated countries
Miladin Ercegovcevic
I don't hate Serbia but some Serbs comment and leave hate on Albanian or Bosnian videos.I don't know why tho...
xxilluminati xx Yeah, but trust me, it goes both ways. It is now at that point that any video concerning any Balkan nation is filled with people from opposing nations just bitching and fighting over everything. To tell you the truth, it's best to just pretend that comment section doesn't exist and move on.
As a bolivian, I can say you made a great video, well done
What!!!! The information is not all correct! SUCRE does not mean sugar! Then the indigenous flag does not only represent the Mayan people!! Please learn I formation that is correct!!
@jackie-ir3ht ok ok Sucre doesn't mean sugar but it´s a 11:31 minute video one mistake is not that bad, still great video. Referring to your second point, the flag "Wiphala" does represent mostly the Aymara people, sometimes used by the Quechua people but indigenous people from the east use other flags. I didn't hear anyone mention the Mayan people.
@@diegoromero9433 no it does not represent mostly Mayan people it represents 36 original languages
Also SUCRE Was an important part of Bolivar’s liberators. Antonio Jose de Sucre . Google it.
I am a teacher and if you want to help others learn history give the correct information.
Nope , not great video
im bolivian and i just love hearing people talk about my country its so underrated!!!
OMG one of the funniest videos yet!
6:09 "farther north closer to La Paz you can reach Lake Titicaca... hehe ...'Lake'..." LOL!!!!!
Marva2552 I thought he'd say "Lake Titicaca... hehe... 'Caca'"
In Hebrew and arabic (and probably some other languages too), caca means Shit!
שגיא קרמן well the fact that he said "hehe...lake" instead of a more obvious "hehe...caca" was the funny part for me! lol
in spanish caca also means shit but in a fancy way like "poop".
No!!! Caca means poop! Shit means Mierda!!
שגיא קרמן In Romanian too! Just saying... Any other languages?
ChemicalFun27 Close enough :D
Did anybody else see Top Gear's (UK) show in Bolivia where they were on the Calle De Muerte?
Chris Seven Calle de LA muerte
Martin Hites I am not sure if it is "Calle de La muerte" or "calle Del muerto". Could you tell me which one is the right one?
Yes I saw it
Hedley Quintana Both are right grammatically, but it is called "Calle de la muerte" :)
- I'm from the btw, not Bolivia in case you wondered.
Martin Hites I know both of them are correct! I am a native Spanish speaker...
However, it is nice to know that it's "Calle de la muerte". We have a street where I come from (Panama City, Panama) called "Tumba Muerto".
Hoy es 6 de agosto. Felicidades Bolivia!! Esperemos q se vayan los q no te aman
Calle del muerte? JAJAJAJAJA R.I.P spanish!
asi se dice no lo dijo mal
Andres Flores Pero que dices?? Lo correcto es "carretera de la muerte"
Si pero el creyo que se pronuncio mal calle
+Andres Flores No hay como rescatarlo, es una traducción sin sentido pero, como mencionas a lo mejor es lo que se acordó Barby de su viaje.
Calle de la muerte = Street of death
Dead's Road = carretera del muerto. PD. me falta googlear Yungas
David el camino de la muerte
Anyone else noticing how the videos on landlocked countries are his best ones? 9.8/10 can't complain/learned heaps, would be cool if you could have a world map with the countries that you've already done filled in.
That's a really nice idea!
HeeftGedaan HD Een andere Groninger???
Jazeker :)
***** Groningen!
Oh d'r zijn ook nog Nederlanders hier ;p. Duurt wel een poos voor hij ooit bij ons landje aan komt.
9:13 LOL IM CRYING
minute 5:50
It's exactly the opposite, summers here are rainy and winters are dry. So Uyuni is an amazing mirror in January and February...
I’ve visited Salar de Uyuni, it was amazing!
Paul speaking Spanish and wearing a dress. Thanks Bolivia. Thanks.
I was looking for a video to show my friends about my country for soooo long! You definitely nailed it. The only thing missing is beautiful Cochabamba with its almost perfect weather and best cuisine overall.
I am a Saudi Arabian and love Bolivia and its culture and its people! I would really love to come and visit this wonderful country one day. But i guess i'll have to learn some spanish first.
I enjoyed the way you talked about my beautiful country! I'm from Santa Cruz Bolivia
Good job! :)
Viva Santa Cruz bella tierra de mi corazón....
Paul made a joke about feminists and Bolivia having no sea at all
13378/10
Indeed
Amazing!!! I'm bolivian! And I loved your video it was great! So much info and interesting (true) facts 👍 good job! :)
Natalia Freitas i am coming to ur country please guide me littlebit.. hazratumar5008@gmail.com
Natalia Freitas I want you.
I’m from Bolivia too, long live Evo Morales! Saved our country lots of times
Pay you 9000$ for you being my private local guide
Cool 🥰
I live in Bolivia and you did amazing your video explaining basically all. Good job!! I will stay tune
09:47 no Acre war . Brazil never had armed border conflicts with any of its 10 neighbours. All border conflicts were solved peacefully (diplomatically ) during 19 and early 20 century either by border treaty or arbitration. In the case with Bolivia ("Acre war") the Petrópolis treaty of 1903 finally ended the border conflict with Bolivia. Bolivia yielded part of its territory to Brazil in change for some money + railway construction between Madeira and Mamoré river ( the Percival Farquhar affair) allowing ocean acces to Bolivia (since the end of war of the Pacific ,in 1883, Bolivia lost acces to ocean) helping both Bolivia and Brazil flow off the rubber to the world (Henri ford 's need for tires).
Need any help with the Canada vid yet?!?!?
Ticktock139 Talk about it here: GeographyLater@gmail.com
CANADA FUCK EH! :]
Ticktock139 Lucky Canadians, us 'Muricans will have to wait forever.
Ticktock139 I wouldnt be shocked if there are literally hundreds of canadians who just cant wait to help paul with the canada video
I Sir Laughsalot Usa will come in a year possibly two, hell there is a chance he will cancel the series in the middle of it
The name Sucre comes from Antonio Jose de Sucre, the Venezuelan general that basically created the country when it was still part of Peru after they broke from the Spanish Empire. BTW the name Bolivia comes from Simon Bolivar, the Venezuelan leader that lead the independence of Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia.
Thank you for clarifying
I dated a girl in college from Bolivia, from the USA myself. She was terribly lovely and we only split because she moved for grad school. But this video lacked the food section. But my ex, she introduced me to yucca fritas. Y'all probably love French fries, but you haven't lived until you've tasted fried yucca. It's just very difficult to prepare.
I met an online friend from Bolivia a few months ago. She has told me many interesting things about her country and made me interested in learning more about it. This country has some very beautiful and astounding nature.
You forgot to mention that Bolivia is the only country in the world with not one single MacDonalds
North Korea? Bolivia is the only one on the Western Hemisphere.
*****
Oops. Which countries have or have no McDonald's is not something I pay attention to. In hindsight I can see all but Jamaica. I'm not saying you're wrong, it's just that surprises me.
Trash food
There's no McDonald's in either Iceland or Belize.
No Mcdonalds in Syria either
this is my beautiful country :) but Toro Toro is nice place to talk too
You guys are amazing! Like a geographer student, I had good times seeing your videos! Keep it up!
I'm from Bolivia and i really like your video!! there`s more stuff to show from my country but everything you showed here is correct! you got us figured out lol! hope you had a nice time here!
You look bolivian actually :D
He looks more like a a chileno i am Chilean and most of us have that color skin
Giorno Giovanna his mum is Korean, his father a white American
Lots of racey stuff going on in this section. Who cares what is his or what he looks like. He is here for Geography. Not Physical Anthropology
Yes he does lol and that’s why I watched this because he was very informative
YouKnow 😂
I 💟 BOLIVIA
Excellent series, everyone funny and informative; I am on my way through the entire series >>> good going Paul B.
You’re channel is so great. I’m a geography nutjob. It’s hard for me sometimes to translate my intense fascination for it onto others. I get lost in the minutia. But your enthusiasm for it is infectious and I think you’re probably able to compel both children and adults to learn and like geography more. What could be more important in these times?!
My hat is truly off to you. Thanks for such great work!
What I'm wondering is why hasn't he done geography for Peru
As an American-Bolivian, I really enjoyed this video you made about Bolivia. Has to be one of the most detailed video recently made about Bolivia on CZcams. Looking forward to the next vid about Bosnia. Cheers Paul!
Amazing video! It was very accurate and well made. Congrats Dude. Hope you can come to Bolivia again!
Bolivia is pissed because Chile to Litoria. Now Bolivia cannot into sea, like Poland cannot into space.
Sorry, there is something called /r/polandball. Heard of it? No. So don't judge people. Smartass.
Vincent Yap sorry!talking about serious matters not kiddy games
Ok then. Ethiopia has the 5th largest Gross Domestic Product increase from 2015. Industrialization is expected to accelerate.
Vincent Yap good for Ethiopia!!and I mean it!!! it's about time see some success in economics provided the US doesn't interfere directly or not
Poland just went into space LOL
Your videos are top notch! I especially enjoyed your episode on Colombia. So looking forward to your video on Peru (I used to live there). Cheers and keep up the FANTASTIC work!!!
I just binge watched all of Geography Now's videos and it's safe to say that I couldn't have spent my time better.
Watching wrestling Cholitas or the WWE? Hmm ...
this is your best video, great job! you got me to memorize everything that i saw and i want to go there so badly! i never knew it is such a cool country!
Well edited, love the quick pace. Very interesting. Thankyou you are very skilled in what you do.
"Estoy Yesca" lmao!!!
Hey Barbie, great job with the videos! Big fan! Just to clarify that although Sucre is translated "sugar" the name actually is in honor of General Sucre who fought in the wars of independence. Keep on the great work.
Your videos are short but productive. Love learning that way without wasting time.
I’m here right now on holiday and I absolutely love it! I’m staying in Cochabamba. This video is very accurate.
*SUCRE* as in Antonio Jose de Sucre, a general in Simon Bolivar's army and his good friend.
Otherwise: Awesome job! These videos are the best in their genre. Kudos!
Best video yet.
fantastic job.

well done man! great informative and fun video to watch. cant wait to go back!
About Che Gevara for people who don't want to look up:
He was basically executed for trying to spark a revolt in...Bolivia.
By the CIA.!!!! Not the Bolivian army.
In Bolivia there are many very large reserves, which could include a country like Uruguay. You can not just grow anywhere, that's why only the land is used for cultivation. And I personally see it better like that, more green better: V
I found your channel and I've been watching all your videos. I get on these kicks where I like to learn a lot about one thing for awhile. Thanks to you randomly popping up on my feed one day I'm on a geography kick 😅
Dude, you just got yourself a new subscriber... I'm from Bolivia and this video is by far the most accurate one I've ever found on youtube... Thanks for the video!
For people who loves nature , Bolivia is truly a world wonder , landscape that will stay with you for your whole life
I am Bolivian living in Belgium.
You are spot on!
Well done. That's very accurate
As half Bolivian and having visited many times and heard stories from my mom and grandma, it’s such a beautiful country that has so much for people to see and so cheap but not many people know about it. Definitely go visit Bolivia if you have the chance, so much culture and beautiful sites. On top of the places in the video, there’s even Torotoro national park which is like Jurassic park’s landscape with dinosaur fossils and footprints
Fascinating, fantastic video. Great footage too. Interesting facts as well.
Thank you for speak about my country, thanks a lot!
Love the video I'm from Bolivia and I can't wait for the Bosnia video because I'm also part Croatia!! Love the videos, nice to see different videos on here. The more popular CZcamsrs are boring and unoriginal. Keep up the good work :) !
Thanks for the video man. Your information really helped me with my school project on Bolivia! Love your videos!
Kajetan Podgorski where are you from? I can help you if you want more information cause im from bolivia
Guys, that`s huge what you do!I just adore the idea and style!
God bless you! I wishing all best things in your lifes!Succied on it all the way!
Some day, hope to see your show about Peru.
Love you!
The thing that U said about Bolivia & Peru being best friends is very true. And that their common enemy is Chile. Both literally hate Chile. Good work Barby!
Yep you are right .. but you forgot argentina :v
Every country in South America hates Argentina
Nah every country including Argentina hates Chile
Everyone hates Chile, Why? because Chile is Best South American country, followed by Argentina
Well I know us peruvians hate Chile because of our history... I think I explained it a little in another comment, but basically after the war between us ended, they were supposed to give us a piece of territory back but they never did, plus they keep stealing peruvian stuff and saying it's theirs, like ceviche and pisco... ¬¬
I'm suprised by how many people in the comments still don't know he does these alphabeticaly
I love your videos about geography. I hope you would finish the remaining of the countries. So we can learn more in short time. Thank you very much.
gracias por mostrar un poco de mi hermoso país y su cultura!!!
Bolivia is such an interesting country, I will visit one day
Geography Now Awesome vídeo, very funny and entertaining! Keep up the good work! :D
I love your videos. I like it when the countries turn into people.
This was great! you answered some questions about Bolivia that I was originally looking for...
I love your videos Geography Now!!! After all of the countries you should do territories and autonomous regions and municipalities
Yeah I agree with you
Wayne Ryan Halim Hey handsome
Travis Rosado well, later, first let him do countries : we're still at the letter B
4:25 it's not the Calle de la muerte, it is the carretera de la muerte "The death road"
Ok so they forgot the “the” wow im going to die hsssss
Oof
After watching this I honestly want to visit this place a lot more then before
I absolutely loved your video. First of many videos I've flipped through.... until I found yours. I subscribed. As for everyone else whom have negative comments... make your own video👍I was born and raised in Paraguay and live in the U.S. I'd love to travel throughout S.A. and experience the vibes. Please make more entertaining videos🤗
"That little dude knows how to fight" 😂 #true . Waiting for the Paraguay video!!!
thx from a haft Bolivian.

2:18 I am from Paraguay, and it is true XD
Not mentioned fact: Bolivia with Paraguay are the only two countries in South America that are landlocked.
Tip for the next video: disable the comments section, cause if not there will be a comment war!!! :)
I am a bolivian white spanish descendant and have sooome indigenous descendants and EVERYONE in Bolivia had even 200 years ago at least 1 indigenous family member and yes just I know like 7 croatian families that are upper class (no bosnians, serbians, or any other balkan slav... lol)
