You idiot, India's national animal is only Tiger. Not Royal Bengal.
Btw the bear is not realy most favorite Russian animal. In Bylinas, the old epic poems, which existed among peasants (so its not some educated monk invention), Russian heroes usually were compared with birds of prey mostly with falcons. Also many people think that symbol of Rurikid dynasty is a schematic representation of hunting bird of prey/falcon. Also surname Sokolov ("sokol" = "falcon" in Russian) is one of the most common Russian surname, its in the first ten. The second most common "animal" surname is Volkov ("volk" = "wolf"), its in the second ten. And the surname Medvedev ("medved" = "bear") is on the 50th place or something. So the bear was not very popular, people not so often got such nicknames/future surnames.
5:30 Swans are gentle? Nah, theyre so aggressive that they could have ended the Viking Age single-handedly
They are beauty, they are grace, they will hit you in the face
Well, the Vikings had really handsome men and beautiful women so it fits

Swans are beautiful but definately not gentle. They are bad tempered and sometimes aggressive.
Yeah, a lot of stories of them attacking and driving other animals and humans off. And the sound they make when angry is more a kind to a snake hissing.
I was thinking the exact same thing.
I was introduced to an aggressive swan up close and personal, I had to firmly let him know no.

@@Grungeuncle He's talking about the Germans of the time that they began considering the black eagle as their symbol; obviously there have been Germans that have been to the Himalayas in more recent times.
@@TheOneGuy1111 National animals dont necessarily have to be local animals; medieval coat of arms symbol of Iceland was firery red lion, and Iceland is last place for a lion to exist. Way before Nazi era, the Saxons, Pomeranians and surely Prussians considered Black Eagle to be their national animal. Not only for Germans but also for many other Indo-Europeans eagles are national and ancestoral animals.

7:35 You should mention that the jaguar is also very popular in Brazilian folklore and popular sayings , for exemple:
Jaguar's Friend= Fake friend.
You should not poke a jaguar with a short stick= do not provoke others.
jaguar's breath= very bad breath.
time for the jaguar to drink water= a decisive and dangerous moment.
That person became a jaguar= that person got really mad.

@@TheZapan99 The french disowned their own soldiers who fought in 1940 and view them as failures, there's only memorials for the free (african) french soldiers not the actual french that fought and died in 1940..
@@delta2372 Utter globalist lie. Where did you hear that nonsense? There is a war monument in every village of the country, where you can see that even the smallest hamlet paid a heavy tribute by losing several brothers in the same family. Their memory is honored every November the 11th. The colonial forces only played a marginal role in the conflict, with 17 000 casualties on the total of 58 839 death in the French army, and most of them were violent mutineers that were executed or flu-related deaths. Don't believe the lies of revisionists films like Indigènes (Days of Glory) they come from muslim marxists sponsored by the Socalist Party.

I like the irony that half of Europe and the US has adopted the eagle because they took inspiration from the Roman Empire, while Italy chose the animal that is actually linked with the birth of Rome (and therefore started everything).
Don't forget the USA bald eagle
You know, we tend to forget it but back in the past nearly every aspect of the "institutional life" of an European country (or countries that were strong-linked with them) came from the Roman Empire. Even in the case of countries that had never seen a Roman Legion on their land. The Roman Empire has left such a lot of things to Europe and Mediterranean area that everyone wanted to have something in common with them.
Just some quick example:
In medieval times the "Roman Law" (let me use this incorrect term) was adopted even in "old" Poland and Scandinavia and Germany.
The Russian word "Tzar" and the German "Kaiser" (emperor) came from Ceasar, because Roman Emperors where generically called in this way.
When Franks occupied the ancient Gaul (now France), their Kings tried to demonstrate that the common ancestor of the entire Frankish people were a Trojan named Francione (I don't know is name in English). And this was due to the fact that the Romans called another Trojan warrior (Enea) as their ancestor.
When Carl the Great was crowned by the Pope, he was called "Emperor of the Romans".
Sorry for bad English
The eagle was important because the romans copied the greek god Zeus, who is associated with eagles. So while the wolf is arguable a more original symbol of Rome, the eagle was appropriated from the greek culture (as most of the gods and other cultural aspects).
So ultimately Germany and the States have the eagle as a symbol because SOMEBODY had to pick up that liver every day.

Eagles and Lions: *exists*
Countries: "Its' free real estate"
And its strange it's not the national animal of many African countries knowing lions came from Africa
Zoinks Scoob Mexico saw itself as a continuation of the Aztecs as the native people existed in the 1800s as they still do today. So they took the name the Aztecs called themselves, which was Mexica and translated it into Spanish Mexicanos and took the pictograph name of Tenochtitlan (eagle, snake on a cactus), which was renamed Mexico City during the Spanish conquest. The eagle has a legendary history in Mexico I don’t know what you mean when you say its not original.
@Zoinks Scoob before the European arrival the Aztecs classified their military commanders as jaguar warrior or eagle warrior, so the symbol was there way before the existence of such thing as a national animal
@@supersmashbrosevil I've heard the lion was actually the most successful animal on Earth before the homo sapiens. There used to be lions even in Europe
@Zoinks Scoob Nothing says "prestige" quite like calling yourself the Fourth Rome :p
Spain: its most recognized tradition is to have the animal representation of the country tortured to death.
Me, an Spaniard: Yeah, that pretty much represents us.
;-;
It's kind of ironic that Spain has its national animal tortured to death. I think that the bull would be more fitting as the national animal of Sweden. I say this because, when you think of Sweden, you think of Vikings. When you think of Viking the first thing the usually comes to mind are big strong men with bull horns on their helmets.

@Ho Lee Shi Roman Empire: ...
1:09 I think what makes the Mexican eagle unique compared to all other national eagle emblems, is the insignia was created 100% independently from the Roman eagle, in which almost all other nations are based off of.
Yeah, well, It comes from a Legend
Although that’s true. During the Mexican empire era, the eagle resembled those of European nation, to allude the Roman Empire eagle. Thankfully it didn’t last. The contemporary design is more respectful to traditional depictions in Aztec codex
Poland's eagle also doesn't refer to the roman eagle
It was even the symbol of the Aztec Empire, the triple allianca
The national animal of Mexico 🇲🇽 is the golden eagle that is present in the national shield, and its origin dates back to the Aztec Empire.
(The Mexican Eagle 🦅 is older than the symbol of the United States).
The god Huitzilopochtli, in an oracle, had ordered the Aztecs to establish their capital city in a place where they saw an eagle on a prickly pear devouring a snake.
They did so.
The history of the eagle and the serpent dates back to the founding of Mexico-Tenochtitlan (present-day Mexico City) around 1325.

Actually, Italy's national animal is the calf/cow, as the ancient pre Roman settlers were worshippers of that animal. In fact their name, Vitali, comes from the Italian word "vitello" (calf). The venetian Republic also used the lion as a symbol, which is still present in Veneto's flag
@aghori sadhu the entire world worshipped cows or some other domestic cattle. In fact it was so common, the Greek name for earth - gaia actually means cow. Europa was a cow who was well.. smooched by zeus in the form of a bull. And that's where the word europe comes from. You know, god of heaven smooching with mother earth to make human babies which makes humans images of god?
Are you referring to modern cattle (bos taurus) or to the extinct aurochs (bos primigenius)?
actually, if you do some research, you will see that the national animal is the apennine wolf

We have a beaver on our nickel (5 cent coin), a sailboat on or dime (10 cent coin) and a caribou on our quarter (25 cent coin).
Sweden have an moose as our national animal:)🇸🇪💪🏻
It's eh. Not ay. And we don't say aboot.
There have been some suggestions that Canada should adopt the polar bear in addition to the beaver, with the beaver reflecting our history and industry while the polar bear represents strength and our embracing our cold climate. It's never really gone beyond people floating the idea though. The polar bear, common loon, caribou and beaver are all on our coinage (along with a historical sailing vessel on one coin).
@Mr. Al While that's a wild oversimplification (the mix of nationalities you describe was accurate around 200 years ago - most Canadians today have more diverse roots), we do tend to be quite open to the Nordic approach to doing things but it has been a parallel development of similar values for the most part (something about the quirks of our colonial experience). Quebecers in particular have been prone to looking at Scandinavian ideas since we swung left and irreligious in the past 60 years (300-400 years of cold weather and two centuries of the Brits rubbing off on us gave us a different temperament than the French - we're more keep calm and enjoy life, less pitchfork and guillotine). 😆
At the end of the day, we're fond of the Nordic countries. For most of us, it isn't due to any deep knowledge of Nordic culture but more that your countries seem very sensible to a Canadian mindset (more than our British, French and American cousins). From our perspective, you guys are the Europeans with the most "Canadian" approach to life. 😉. The British and French are too dramatic, even if they are the colonial powers from our past. As for our neighbours down south, they're nothing but drama these days. We like quiet and calm.
5:56 Fun fact: The moose has the nickname "King of the forest" in Swedish because their antlers are like a crown.
Makes more sense than a lion being king of all animals.

Same with a stag here in Germany

This video is fire.
I always thought the Mexican Flag looked pretty cool with the Eagle eating the snake. I always got a "willingness to fight" vibe from it. They really struck gold designing it.

@Finn Spooner Antarctica doesn't have any country for a national animal. But if did, we all know what it would be. The mighty Emperor Penguin.
thanks for saving me my time
Don't underestimate swans. They're like a bigger and stronger version of a goose
In Greek mythology dolphins were originally made by Dionysus the god of wine and growing things. He made them from pirates that kidnapped him🐋🐳🍷
I can't watch this seriously with the Sam O' Nella music constantly playing in the background
"Hey kids, did you know that some countries have some really weird and fancy animals as their national symbols?"
Ok, that put a strong image onto my mind and I won’t be able to get rid of it for a while.
Thanks
Australia:- my national bird is an emu and it’s a pest....
Also BLOODY delicious!
And the drumsticks are HUGE! 😂
Don't eat my babbies
YoYo Mowafak I’ve had Kangaroo but never Emu. I’ll keep that in mind. Thanks!
Dude...... Uncool
Savage!!!
Such info ill sub roght now
The best thing is watching this at 3 am
I don’t even care that he said Australia doesn’t exist, it’s the fact that he pronounced emu wrong that really grinds my gears
Nobody mispronounces the word emu..
Intermission .1 are you even Australian?
Mitch Chapman yeah that was a joke
Intermission .1 fair enough man XD
Reeee
9:54 The emu war.
Australia: Emus suck!
Australia: never mind let’s use it as our mascot!
I think national animal status was a condition of the peace treaty that ended the Emu War.
How do you explain upon meeting powerful empire's, my national animal is a bird... we went to war with... and lost.
@@tomo-gq2tq If you can't beat them, join them?
They lost to a bird… that’s worse then france
@@vosskambassador7733 nothing in Australia is natural!
In México the eagle is known as the Royal Eagle
Fun fact about the hornero, the national bird of argentina, instead of building nests out of small branches they make like little huts out of mud
Finland has several national animals:
Brown bear (national animal)
Whooper swan (national bird)
Holly blue (national butterfly)
European perch (national fish)
Seven-spot ladybird (national insect)
Bears are mammels.. everythong else u said are animals as well...
Spurdo as national meme :DDDDDDDD FUGG EBIN
Every other country: **makes their national animal an eagle to claim a connection with the Roman Empire**
The country where the Roman Empire actually was: **make it a wolf or something lmao**
I mean, the wolf was literally the reason Rome had a chance to begin with according to legend, so kinda symbolic there
And the eagle is considered too a national animal, even if the wolf is more known
The wolf was the symbol of Rome, the eagle was only the symbol of the legions, but all wannabe romans don't know it and keep making eagles their national animals.
Well as he explained germany kinda has a connection
@Legio XXI Rapax depends i mean the holy roman empire lasted til 1806 and that was basically mainly Germany. Depends if you don't think this is a connection to rome i understand as it is not ROME but still
Interesting!👍
The youtuber: Australia doesn't exist. Me who lives there: yes it does
Flat earthers: What did you say to me you little shit?
You can only have real animals as a national symbol.
Scotland: haha Unicorn go Reeeeeeeee
China and Wales: Haha dragon go Raaaawwwwrr.
Unicorns do exist in Scotland. It's just unfortunate that there's no virgins here so we can't get near them 😂
"link to the gods"
Me: Dionyous?
"Poseiden-"
Me: Oh...
It always gives me age of mythology flashbacks
The hornero here in Argentina is known as "el hornerito trabajador" (the hard working little hornero). It is thought to be a noble and working bird.
It also appears on the ARG$1000 bill
Magnificent
Italians like a pack of wolves are strong together, they might bite echother sometimes, but they Will Always rise as One.
I'm so proud of being Italian. Even tho Is difficult this days

Greetings from Turkey which has same national animal
I laughed for a good 30seconds when North Korea was included
You missed the interesting part about the ovenbird (hornero in Spanish).
It builds its little round house with mud and clay and it looks a lot like a mud oven, hence its name. If you ever come to Argentina look around the city in windows or light poles, you'll see their nests everywhere.
