- Sorry I took a week off, it was my birthday and I wasn't really feeling the birthday work.
This is somewhat of an update to that old Laos introductory video idea. I had so much footage of Artigas I kind of had to. Hopefully this helps set the scene for future episodes.

Uruguay carajo! Im proud of being uruguayan
I'm just a Spanish teen living in Uruguay, and not gonna lie, after 7 years living here, i felt a bit offended with the title, but after i listened to the video.. i smiled and felt proud of this little country, which is now my home 💕🥺

I am an Indian working here in Montevideo. I am delighted to be here amidst good people and pleasant surrounding. This is my second home. Anything for Uruguay
Argentine province or a Brazilian state? hahahaha, argentines and brazilians allowed uruguay to exist only to disturb each other in football, sometimes beats argentinos, sometimes beats brazilians, geopolitics of football, hahahaha
Working in a Uruguayan 7/11 or Taxi 🤣
@Bhargav rs I'm happy to know you are doing well in Uruguay!! May I ask you how you got interested in it? Where did you first find out about our country?
🇺🇾🤍🇮🇳
Are you still in Uruguay?
I’m so glad you’re having a good time there. I’m Uruguayan living in the US. I just got back for a visit and saw many people from India, because there’s an Indian company there in charge of internet regulation for the whole continent. We didn’t use to have many immigrants when I grew up there, so I was pleasantly surprised. Montevideo feels very alive again. Mi casa es tu casa.
Them: “Uruguay shouldn’t exist”
Me: -Hold on my cow for a second... wtf did you just say?
Hahahaha right?
I love uruguay, the 28º brazilian state!
doce de leite, capivaras, italians, churrasco... C'MON! its just a Minas Gerais down south! kkkk
Provincia rebelde
Y acá vemos a un Brazuca estupido que cree que somos su estado (Ya quisieran) y a un Argento que es un caso peor todavía, ya que además de idiota, es ignorante. Al menos los Brazucas tienen algo de derecho al llamarnos provincia, ya que si fuimos parte de su territorio (Algo en duda, ya que la provincia cisplatina era parte del IMPERIO de Brasil, no del actual Brasil), pero el Argento no tiene idea de que Uruguay NUNCA fue provincia.
Dios mío, la ignorancia que hay en estos países vecinos.
@@LucasTheUltimate Don't take it so seriously man, chillax. They're just joking.
They chilled so hard that everyone became ok with their existence
We chilled ourselves into existence
And from nothing... *C H I L L*
As an Argentinian I tip my hat to Artigas. If he hadn't done what he did, the Banda Oriental would be part of the shitstorm that is my country. Cheers, bros and learn from our mistakes.
As a south American i can say this comment is 100% accurate.
Luis Suarez has been chill... Most of the time...
I went to Uruguay last year. BEST country on earth. I Will live there any time soon

I went to Uruguay, drove through 15 of the 19 departments on a self-guided tour. It is a very impressive country to me. Had amazing interactions with various people there. Would like to return on another visit there. I really like the culture, met the man that is in the Guiness World Record book for his pencil collection. Like how educated they are, and how they cherish their independence, and freedom, in a relaxed manner.
You made a very accurate description of our people
We just LOVE when foreigners talk about Uruguay.
Confirmo.
Nothing wrong about it.😀
We do, it makes us feel special
@@agusrodriguezz I think it makes us feel valid, like we're constantly arguing with people who says we're a part of Argentina or Brazil, and it makes me really upset because we didn't go through all our history for that.

Greetings from TEXAS in the United States. I lived in Colombia for a few years. I traveled throughout South America, including Uruguay. I had a very pleasant and memorable visit. I would like to see Uruguay again...maybe one day. My best wishes to the people of Uruguay!
Gracias hermano. Serás bienvenido!!
I'm brazilian. During our whole formal education we hear this same history talked over and over again, portugal and spain. And yet, somehow, even though we know what happen, we also know almost nothin about, nothing about how people felt, about how the rest of the world was dealing with Napolean, there is no context, it's pure fact spilling. Thank you rare earth, for explaining to me the history and the legacy of my country, whithout even trying to, something my nation couldn't do for even though it tried for 40 years.
True, it's crazy to think that Uruguay could've still been part of Brazil if it weren't for the treaty. I'm surprised the Portuguese language didn't survive in Uruguay. Did the original Portuguese settlers move to Brazil or they stayed in Uruguay. Alot more Spanish settlers eventually out number the Portuguese I guess.
Lol, I remember learning it very well in my history classes about the Napoleon, the court fleeing to Rio, the Colônia do Sacramento being traded with Spain for the Missões Orientais that became the west of Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul, about the platine wars between Brazil and Argentina. Did you really pay attention to history classes? Hahahaha
@@tblue303 From what i've seen, there is some portuguese speaking areas but the official language is just spanish so they go with that
Uruguay: Exists
Rare Earth: "Why are Uruguay?"
Who says I'm gay?
U r Guay
"Are You gay"... Homer Simpson.
🇺🇾🇺🇾
This is the only version of the joke that actually made me laugh
@@CXWTFKR the real word was you are a gay or "u r a gay"
As a Brazilian I may say Uruguay is one of the countries around America we look up to the most. Every World Cup Brazil loses I switch to Uruguay. It may be small, it may have only 3 million people, but Uruguayans always make themselves distinct, their country is unique and their politics and public services are light years ahead of our own. Grande abraço, Uruguai 🇺🇾 continuem dando o exemplo de identidade, desenvolvimento e sociedade que vocês sempre deram para nós e pra América Latina.
Gracias hermano

Essa pode ser tua opinião e se respeita, mas te conto algo que não se fala muito por ai do Uruguay e o tal Matriarcado. Voce não deve ter a menor ideia da dificuldade que é para um pai exigir do Estado o simples direito de ter contato com seu filho(a), ou de um filho(a) ter contato com seu pai, uma vez que a Mae decide não querer. Sabe que aqui é considerado "normal" a criança não ter contato com o pai até depois de 6 anos de idade? Sabe a quantidade de transtornos e traumas que sofrem essas crianças quando impedem o vinculo da criança com o pai? Meu filho e eu vivemos esse mesmo problema que outras 90.000 familias daqui vivem (aprox. 360,000 pessoas) afectadas directamente. Eu, como brasileiro, pai de uma criança uruguaya, te digo uma coisinha mais com muito respeito. Um país que não pode pode cumprir nem com os direitos básicos das crianças, não pode ser visto como exemplo de identidade, desenvolvimento e sociedade. Abraço.
@@natureshore discúlpeme Marlon, pero vivo en Uruguay y puedo afirmar que si la justicia no te permite ver a tu hija...por algo será. No hay un "matriarcado". Lo que sí se defiende los derechos de la madre al igual que los del padre. Por supuesto como en todo habrá errores y tal vez es tu caso. Pero estás dando información errónea si decís que vivimos un matriarcado.
Muito obrigada 🥰
Sending much love from Latin brothers in Romania to Uruguay. Much respect to you, guys!

I am Brazilian and trully respect Uruguay. They won the 1950 World Cup Final in Maracanã against Brazil and people here say it was a sad, depressive day. That was Uruguay's second World Cup title in soccer, Brazil had none at the time. 4 Years layer Brazil would beat Sweden at their home with a certain 16 years old black young man scoring one of the most iconic goals of all time against Sweden. But God yeah, Uruguay is huge and made us cry, I mean, really cry. Until today Brazilian broadcast talk about that event. Respect to my brothers from Uruguay, you guys bare awesome!

I like how everyone is like "wow this is the first time someone actualyy notices Uruguay and recognizes it existence and accomplishments" and I´m like "No one remembers Luis Suárez: The Vampire?"
I'm uruguayan and our history has many more tales worth knowing, the charrúa genocide as implied, and the political turmoil between blancos and colorados, the mercerbary forces of Garibaldi, etc. Great to see my little country featured on your videos.
I have a bunch of questions, but I don't wants to use the comment section. Would you be so nice as to contact me on this throw-away email account l88999403@gmail.com. I know it's weird, and thank you for your time.

@@oldworldblu3s305 You know what? It actually would.
I volunteer at a museum dedicated to Garibaldi in New York. He's an incredibly interesting guy! Like a combination of George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Bono lol.
Italian here. Rare Earth should make a biography on that guy. In every city there's at least a couple of streets named after Garibaldi, and yet, (especially in recent years), he's a quite controversial figure.

Uruguay, my beautiful country
My school took me to almost all the places that you showed, to teach me things and I realized that my country is really fun, almost all the people are really kind but now that I am in high school I have noticed that times have changed and there is a lot distrust among all.
I can't explain why, it's just something I've noticed over the years.
You're right, I also feel that in my country as I grew up, I'm also sure it happens to all for us.
Distrust exist, and it will continue to exist for whatever reasons to cause distrust, but please don't forget that kindness still exist.
Don't forget that even for people in the same country, we still have inequalities that may affect our views on life.
Whatever you do to be kind will never be perfect,in fact, any action isn't perfect. If you want people to see how honest you feel, be a bit more expressive without going too far.
This is just my humble opinion and developed views in life.
I hope it may contribute even if just a bit
@@wellmakeitworth1316 wow thank you for taking the time to write this uplifting comment. I have learned something here; that is to be a more humble person during difficult times. Thank you again.
Thanks so much. I wanted to go there for years, I have no idea why. I really knew little about it. I went there and fell in love. With Uruguay, con su gente. Totalmente. I call it el País de los historias interminables. The land of never-ending stories. Many thanks. More please.

Much love to Uruguay from Puerto Rico! We're all Latinos!
I loved the way you told all these important details! I am Uruguayan, but living in Sweden since the 80s. Since 1996 I have returned to visit family and friends every single year. This year, due to the pandemic, that will not be possible and I will miss visiting enormously! =( So I will have to manage with memories from my own pictures and lovely videos like yours! Keep up the good job! =)
In Argentina we joke around that they are just a rebel province, but the truth is, we look up to them. They are managing to pull of all the things we dream about, a stable economy in one of those things.
Same joke in Brazil, they are forever our Cisplatina.
Well keep dreaming, with that president i don't know if Argentina will emerge form it's economic crisis. I hope Argentina will rise up and advance in this poor continent with us! From a friendly Uruguayan brother :)
Asado for everyone!
American Republicans view Canada poorly and brand us as Socialists but it's really resentment because Canada is everything the U.S. aspires to be but never makes the cut.

I was lucky to be born in this beautiful country. Although my parents and I migrated to Australia in 1975 (some 45 years ago)... I still hold a very special place in my heart for my home, my people, my history... You see, we are not huge by size, or by natural wonders, by number of people, gold, oil, or armed strength.. we are huge by HEART. We are simple, humble, loving and trustworthy. I guess I'm doubly lucky to also call Australia home.. by definition we have it all here in OZ.. so I split my heart in two. Cannot deny that when I hear the word Uruguay, I get a shiver down my spine, and a little voice inside my head says... "That's my home" The so called rivalry between our neighbors is purely on the soccer pitch.. we are brothers to Brazilians, as much as Argentinians.. and it is possibly the heart that's left on that soccer pitch when we play against each other that makes us so much alike. Thank you for your video, and I appreciate the comments too. Uruguay viejo y peludo noma!!
📌 Thank you for making this video, it’s so hard for me sometime as uruguayan living in North America I have to explain many times that Uruguay is not Paraguay, not part of Argentina and not part of Brazil hahaha good job 👍🏼
Most people: where is Uruguay?
Rare Earth: why is Uruguay?
i saw what you did here
Uruguayan here!
It's pretty rare to see foreigners talking about our country in their videos. I've seen some people who do, but no one has the passion you have at explaining these stuff. In most videos there are also many huge mistakes, but I couldn't find any in your video (apart from your Spanish pronunciation hahaha).
I gotta say I'm surprised, didn't expect such a high quality video of my little Uruguay. Excellent information and excellent footage, all I gotta say is THIS is the video I'm gonna show to my English-speaking friends when they ask about my country.

When my Great Grandfather and his sister and younger brother decided to leave Russia and come to the US at the turn of the 20th century, but they had a problem. The younger brother could not come due to quotas at the time...so he instead went to Uruguay. There is a whole branch of my family that is still there, whose last name didnt get changed (I'm glad ours was since I cant even pronounce theirs...which I guess is mine). I've always wanted to go there and meet them.
You might be referring to this place:
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Javier,_Uruguay
Hey, if they came here, they are probably in San Javier. If you need to contact someone from there, let me know. I have many friends from there with Russian descent. Greetings!
Something similar happened to my Dad's side of the family. They left Alsace Lorraine in a hurry (they were sheep thieves; it was either leave Europe or be hanged). One part of the family took a boat that took them to the US. The other part took a boat to the Río de la Plata. No one knows where they docked, or whatever happened to them.
Curiously, I moved from Ohio to Argentina 2 decades ago and I wonder sometimes if I have very distant family here, somewhere.

How is the relationship with Argentina these days? How do you guys fare with Brazil? I mean those were historically the oppressors, have they come clean and started to tear down the borders, or is the diplomatic relationship still riddled with old conflict?
@@GermanTopGameTV We all get along mostly okay now. i believe the last 'notable' foreign policy clash happened between argentina and uruguay when uruguay wanted to build a wooden pulp mill on the river both countries share, but nothing happened really
How do you exist? ;-)
@@GermanTopGameTV Between 1811 and 1828 the people of what is now Uruguay fought several oppressors, the Spanish, The Portuguese, Buenos Aires, the Empire of Brazil and even Britain. Uruguay has been independent for almost 2 centuries and we definitely do not see neither Argentines nor Brazilians as oppressors. There might be some obscure diplomatic plot in 19th century Brazil to regain Uruguay. But the balance of power was always held tight by Britain and later the US. It could be catastrophic for Brazil or Argentina to go to war over Uruguay. There are some minor rivalries over soccer but that;s about it. Uruguayans and Argentines don't see each other as foreign at all. Our relationship with the Brazilian people is not that close but it is very good. Brazil is a much bigger country than Argentina and also they speak a different language and historically Brazilians have always being more into their own culture.

Hi daph, it's me your uncle haha
I'm not nationalist at all, and usually while living in the country you tend to focus on all the flaws it has, but something about seeing my tiny and humble country through someone else's eyes brought me pride. Thank you!
I’m Brazilian and I’m delighted to see a video about Uruguay. Their country have such a rich history. Uruguay, Brazil and Argentina are pacific neighbors. They have been for more than a hundred years. I hope you do a video about Argentina and Brazil, too. If you come to Brazil, I hope you talk about Marielle Franco. And if you come to Brasília, I will be glad to help you find your story. The opinion of Brazilians about Brasília is very negative. But it happens because they mix politics with the city. My generation is the grandchildren of the pioneers that constructed this city, and their stories are very beautiful. Maybe you are the one who will tell their stories. Congratulations for this wonderful channel
I would add that Banda Oriental and Uruguay are not the same territory, the first one was almost twice bigger. Also Artigas didn't really fight for Uruguay's independence, he actually wanted to create the Liga Federal (Banda Oriental + some other Argentinian provinces, with a federal government).
Uruguay became a nation when Buenos Aires and Brazil signed a peace treaty, with England acting as a mediator in 1828.
Anyway, it's great to watch this video about my country, thanks for sharing it 💙
it's very wrong to say "Artigas didn't really fight for Uruguay's independence" yes he did, because all of Uruguay's current territory was part of the Banda Oriental, he fought for more territory but he lost it over the time
I had no idea Banda Oriental was that big, if Uruguay was that size almost 20 million Brazilians would be Uruguayans instead
@@212-3 Yes, as you say, he fought for the territory that is Uruguay today. But at that time, Uruguay didn't even exist as an idea, no one wanted to create it as an independent country simply because no one felt Uruguayan, there was no national identity at all.
So you can say Artigas fought for this territory, but never for Uruguay.
In addition to Artigas wanting establish a bigger federal entity closer to modern day Argentina than to either Uruguay nor the centralist Argentina of his own times, it is worth noting that the "33 Orientales" didn't fight for an independent Uruguay either.
On August 25, 1825, a date that is now celebrated as Independence Day in Uruguay, the 33 Orientales met in the small town of Florida, a few hours north of Montevideo and they signed three laws (or rather, proclaimed them). The first one was the Law of Independence, which clearly stated that the 'Banda Oriental' was independent from Brazil, Spain and 'any other foreign power'. But then, the second law was the Law of Union, establishing that the territory was to join Argentina (which was clearly not seen as a foreign power by the 33 Orientales). The third law had to do with a flag for the territory, which is now one of three official national flags, but it's not the main flag (though you'll often find the three flags flown together in modern Uruguay).
Although the expedition of the 33 Orientales, along with the parallel struggles of creole warlord Rivera (which will, no doubt, feature prominently in following videos), are often portrayed as the 'Uruguayan war of independence' (and it is often presented as such in the Uruguayan educational system), it was more of an offshoot of a bigger Argentine-Brazilian war, with both powers tugging over the 'Cisplatine/Eastern Band' territory. That is not to say that there weren't locals who yearned for their own voice to be heard, separate from those of Buenos Aires and Rio de Janeiro. After all, many of those people had followed Artigas (some had actually physically followed him as he marched north), and Artigas had found bitter enemies both in the Portuguese and in the Buenos Aires elites that led Argentina. But those voices weren't as loud in the roar of war and their ideals were for certain not the ones that the 33 Orientales carried as they proclaimed the Union with their neighbours in the west and fought those in the north.
When the end of the war came in the form of a treaty, it was Argentinians and Brazilians who sat on the table along the British negotiators, but Uruguayans were not a party in that treaty. Actually, that is not quite right: some of the peoples who came from Banda Oriental were represented, but as part of Argentina, the nation the 33 Orientales fought for. But the territory that until then had been the Brazilian "Provincia Cisplatina" was not a negotiating subject in that treaty: it was the negotiated object instead. And it was out of that treaty that the neutral state which would eventually name itself Uruguay came to be, getting an independence that was yearned by many but not fought as diligently as the narrative of an 'Uruguayan war of independence' would lead you to believe. Though it should also be said that most prominent of the 33 Orientales who had fought in the name of Argentina were more than happy to establish a sovereign state they would themselves lead, as was Rivera, a man who I could only say had fought for himself more than for any power anywhere. It is no wonder Rivera and former 33 Orientales leaders such as Oribe would be among the first Uruguayans to seize power in their newly independent nation and that the rivalry between Rivera's Colorados and Oribe's Blancos would set the scene for two centuries of political division (and many a civil war) that defined 19th century Uruguay and strongly influenced 20th century Uruguay (though it would be a different Colorado, Battle y Ordóñez, who really set the stage for the country as we know it).
@@KevinDuarte63 You got that wrong. Artigas didn't want a Federal League. He wanted a Confederacy like in USA. He never managed to fulfil his dream because Buenos Aires ripped the League apart and allowed Brazil to invade the Oriental Province.
So basically, UruguWHY?

I simply love Uruguay, an amazing country with passionate people!
You really understated the role Argentina (then the United Provinces) played in the 1825-1828 war as well as Britain's role in the independance of Uruguay. The war was mainly a Brazilian-Argentine affair and peace was settled by the British, creating a buffer state between the two South American powers.
All the independent processes is a little bit mixed here. And Artigas lived until 1850 and he didn't participate in the creation of the Uruguayan state because he was in favor of "LA liga Federal". The "wonderful" work of Lord Ponsonby in "La Convención Preeliminar de Paz" in 1828 is not mentioned. Well, this gentleman participated in the "creation" of Uruguay and Belgium, small states among giants are alive and well today.
@@LuciaRPerez the guy had a thing for buffers
most people dont like the idea of Ponsonby because they (wrongfully) believe Artigas wanted independence, and too because they dont like the idea that our country was actually made because of international interest and not “patriotism”
The United Provinces isn’t the same as “Argentina” was a union of several provinces at the time, even Paraguay
@@guruxara7994 what do you mean Paraguay? We were independent before Argentina itself. 1811. And isolated from the rest of south america under José Gaspar Rodríguez de Francia.

Great video! Although as a uruguayan I'd like to make a few sidenotes.
In 1825 "independence" was declared only form Brazil, the document established re-anexation with the United Provinces (nowadays Argentina). Obviously after that Brazil wouldn't stay arms crossed, so it started a war between between Argentina and Brazil, both forces were so even that it lasted for many years. Here is where Britain comes into play, with interests in region the British proposed for the first time the idea of an independent state, seen as the only solution to the conflict a treaty of peace was signed in 1828 and Uruguay was left on its own to write their own constitution, finally proclaimed in 1830.
All thanks to our real national hero Lord John Ponsomby.
buen comentario, se olvidaron de hablar de la guerra entre las Provincias Unidas del Rio de la Plata y el Brasil.
This video forgot to talk about the war between "the Provincias Unidas del Rio de la Plata"(Argentina) against Brasil, wich resulted in the uruguayan independence
Why does Uruguay exist? Thank to the British! Of course, we can´t teach that to our kids so we chose a smuggler as our hero and make it look like the best person that ever existed. Yeah, that would teach good values to our kids. Well, except honesty, I guess.
You can't talk about Uruguay independence leaving aside the British and it's economics interests being the ruling empire of that time. I can't blame the channel, it's not easy to find that info but it's the reason why Artigas failed in his plans to form the Liga Federal.
What about the war between Brazil and Uruguay? Who are the heirs of the blancos and the colorados?
That was very interesting.

I've always had great respect for Uruguay. It's no secret that corruption has plagued many Latin American nations. However, at this point, Uruguay is one of the least corrupt nations in the world with little poverty(compared to other Latin American nations) and solid human rights policies. Plus they have won two World Cups despite currently having a population of less than the state of Connecticut
In fact we have 4 world cups. we won 2 :1924 and 1928. but Fifa didnt existed then. When Fifa was established they declared those pre-fifa world cups to be recognized as Legitimate Fifa world cups. If you pay atention Our Shirt has 4 stars over the Badge.
Alejandro Mechina Una simple corrección, los juegos olímpicos de 1924 y 1928 fueron hechos bajo el reglamento de la FIFA pero no organizados del todo por ella.
La FIFA ya existía desde antes, sólo que no podían ofrecerse el lujo de organizar un campeonato mundial de fútbol por sí sólos sino hasta 1930.
Es por esto que esas dos medallas de oro cuentan como copas del mundo y ningún otro juego olímpico cuenta como copa del mundo, sólo esos dos.
Literalmente, fueron copas del mundo sólo con la diferencia de que los nombres eran "Juegos olímpicos" no "copa del mundo", aún así, los artículos y noticias de esa época sí los consideraban campeonatos del mundo como tal.
🌟🌟🌟🌟
@@alejandromechina5959Exactly. The olimpic games were the most important tournament at the time, so it´s pretty fair to say Uruguay has 4 world cups. Thinking about it, it amazes me that Uruguay had won 4 major championships way before Brazil had won its first...

Greetings from Singapore.
It has intrigued me why my Mexican teacher once said that Uruguay was virtually an Argentine "province".
He compared it to, in his words: "Uruguay is like Argentina's Hong Kong".
He even translated and added subtitles to a lecture by an uruguayan professor Guillermo Vazquez Franco.
I have a friend who travelled to South America. She said Uruguay was extremely similar to how Argentina is outside of the big cities, like more of a town vibe. More slow paced, safer, but less vibrant and fun.
No sé si entiendas español prro igualmente voy a comentar.
Uruguay es muy parecido a argentina ya que en un pasado pertenecio a este, más específicamente a "las provincias unidas del rio de la plata"
El lugar en donde esta ubicado uruguay se llama la "banda oriental" la cúal una vez se independizó argentina y brasil estos reclamaban la banda oriental, iniciaron una guerra en la cúal ambos bandos reclamaron la victoria y como no llegaron a nada por ese mismo hecho "reino unido" intervino y hizo que la rupublica del uruguay apareciera, en un principio independizaron a uruguay como un "estado colchon" y con más territorio que el que tiene actualmente, a partir de unos tratados uruguay sedio a brasil territorio y argentina y brasil volvieron a tener frontera directa.
We aren't like Hong Kong, but we are similar cuture-wise to most Argentinian provinces, with the biggest exception being their capital city. We both had the same background, being mostly all immigrants from Spain, Italy, and Portugal. However we usually don't like to be compared to Argentina because it's most known for its capital city, where the culture developed a little differently in a way we don't like (arrogance). We are more akin to the small town folk, as even our capital city is still small, keeping that sense of community alive (even more so in smaller towns)
I would love to go visit Uruguay! Seems like an exceptional corner of the world. It’s people even more so.
Actually, the history the independence of Uruguay is more complex, but it is a good shortened version,anyway great informative video, greetings from Uruguay!
