      @@jj3a1 Because Ayer's Rock is the first unified name for it that everybody agrees on. Aboriginals probably had hundreds of different names for it. Why grant supremacy to just one tribe? There's a mountain in Queensland that had an English name that the local aboriginals had no problem with, and then there was a huge controversy when the Australian government forcibly changed the name to an indigenous word that did not come from their language, all in the name of being politically correct. So it goes both ways

    You pronounced Kiribati right (Kiribas) but Kiritimati is also pronounced Kirismas as "ti" is just an "s".
    Kiribas actually stands for "Gilberts" (the colonial name for the islands) and Kirismas, quite obvious, for Christmas.

    Some of those pronunciations were just horrific. If you're going to do a video like this, please at the very least just copy the native names for these places into Google Translate and listen to how the automated voice pronounces it. You won't get obscure languages like Tetum or Gilbertese, but that pronunciation of Zhangjiajie, when Chinese is so thoroughly supported online, is just unforgivable.
    Although I've got to give you props on Kiribati. Most people would just read that phonetically and never consider to look up how it's actually pronounced, but you nailed it.

    Personally, for Cameroon, I would have went with Lake Nyos because its such an interesting lake and was the site of one of the only couple of limnic eruptions on record. For Chile I would have went for either the marble caves in Patagonia because it looks so amazing and its such a cool geological feature or the Atacama desert because its the driest desert on Earth but when it does rain there is a massive floral bloom that looks so beautiful and impressive. For Georgia I would have gone for Veryovkina cave because it is the deepest cave in the world. Just my personal opinions, all the features mentioned in this video are so beautiful

    I stg this must be engagement farming and it works, just from reading the comments, doing azerbaijan dirty by just showing the map, saying ayers rock instead of uluru, not specifying which congo you are referring to, reusing geographical features, then using the government name of the DPRK, while saying north korea in the voiceover, and actually including it in the Ds rather than the Ns, but not doing so for the congos, which would help distinguish the two.

    Very Interesting video! and while I loved to see so many geographical wonders I had yet to learn, I was still a bit disappointed in some other countries left as an afterthought. For example, Let's talk about the Amazon rainforest. While as a whole is one of the biggest ecosystems on earth the size makes that it has so many to offer and to just... name it for three different countries leaves a bit of a bad taste in terms of actually pointing their unique features.
    Let's take Colombia, for example. While yes, it does have a big chunk of the Amazon region it also has some pretty stellar geographical places like caño cristales or raudal de Maipures. And even in Brazil, which is also a big part of the Amazon, it also has stuff like the famous island of Queimada Grande which is full of numerous species of venomous snakes, or the Island fernando de noronha where it's incredibly stunning.
    I would say this video still took a lot of research but even still, as some of the countries just had a google maps screenshot... as a
    geography fan I woul've loved to see your own edits into the geographical feature itself.

      @Siansonea Před 16 dny +1

      Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan are right on the cusp of what is considered "Europe". But as far as I'm concerned, Eurasia is one continent anyway, and it always struck me as odd that we broke that landmass into two continents for non-geographic reasons. I would go even further though, I would argue that Afro-Eurasia is a single continent with multiple megaregions. If the Ural Mountains and Caucasus Mountains are significant enough to separate Europe from Asia, why aren't the Himalayas, the Tian Shan, and others that are just as much a barrier between ecosystems and human societies? Always felt arbitrary to me. I think it's all one contiguous mass, and therefore one continent.
