Deep in tropical jungles lie floating kingdoms ruled by beautiful and deadly masters: They are sort of the high elves of the ant kingdoms: Talented architects that create castles and city states. But they are also fierce and expansionist warriors and their kingdoms are ensnared in a never ending war for survival. Oecophylla weaver ants.

Why has no one made an RTS game of this? Imagine playing as a colony of Weaver Ants in a rainforest, and trying to compete with other ant & insect colonies to survive the longest. Maybe one day we'll get a "Total War: Weaver Ants"...

You’d think they’d be the nature-loving, treehugging hippies of the ants. But nope, turns out all ants are frankly horrifying.
The insect kingdom itself is horrifying. Everyone eats each other!

Like all other life, weaver ants evolved in a crucible where they were pitted against other species in a fight for survival. The universe kind of sucks, but that's not the ants' fault.
They are the nature-loving, treehugging hippies of the ant world. Which tells you a lot about the others. Ants are relentlessly vicious.

It's so hard to grasp that insects as little as ants can have an entire kingdom by working together.

The ants themselves aren't actually that intelligent. They act smart together through emergence which kurzgesagt has a good video on

For those that seek everlasting life, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior today. Pray to The Lord and ask Him to come into your heart, accept Him as Your Lord and Savior. Believe that Jesus Christ died for your sins, was buried, and then resurrected on the 3rd day. 📕(1 Corinthians 15:1-4) "Moreover, brethren, I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received and in which you stand, 2 by which also you are saved, if you hold fast that word which I preached to you--unless you believed in vain. 3 For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures" 💬By accepting Him as Your Savior in prayer and believing in His gospel, you are saved (John 3:16). But if you reject Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, the wrath of God abides on you (John 3:36). No religion nor false gods can grant you everlasting life, Jesus is the only way to salvation. (John 14:6) "Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me"

True facts about the weaver ant.
@@FMHikari a baby glue gun using their spit.
To understand this, imagine a collaboration between Zefrank and Kurzgesagt.
These ants are so cute and have a lot of personality! I love this video kurzgezagt!
After watching this video i now think that if humans were to go extinct, weaver ants would be the first non-primate or mammal to develop intelligence similar to our own.
Every dystopia: "Humans will kill each other with countless wars and chemical weapons."
Weaver Ants: "First time?"
@@fathfez7991 Formic acid is a chemical weapon.
actually, there are dystopias based on lack of enemies and stagnation aka behavioral sink
and most of dystopias are based on totalitarism, because humans are no ants
@@fathfez7991 "to slow down the advance of the attackers, the defending majors squirt formic acid over the battlefield to chemically burn their targets"

Who else is waiting for ant video 4?
This is insane how well organized they are. Imagine if humans were this devoted to their communities. We'd be building crazy stuff.
Well, we wouldn't like to work all day without being paid. For ants, they work for all, and all for one, but for us humans, we want to be paid.
This has to be the cutest yet the most terrifying video Kurzgesagt has ever made.
I know, right?
Why the hell did they make those Emerald Weaver Ants so damn cute?
I kinda want a plushie or something.
What about that video that gave everyone an existential crisis?
Oh wait
AntsAustralia did a similar one. Except IRL.
@Keahi Duarte no?
I find it more fascinating than terrifying
Ants: Make an Empire
The British: Write that down, write that down!
It’s rather the English.
sooooooo war was formed by ants they say
when british empire fails:
ants: fail that, fail that, fail that!
@@thedolphin602 When the British Empire rebuilds:
Ants: Write that down, write that down, write that down!!!
Ants: uses child labour
Industrial Revolution Britain: Write that down!

I think weaver ants are now my favourite ants cause they live in trees which is really cool and how their nests are made out of leaves is fasinating!! Keep up the good work!
