    I recognize that final map, the nope/10! That's from the 1984 "the Transformers" cartoon, season 2, the episode where the Autobots are supposed to protect this snooty racer and his supercar in a transcontinental race from the Decepticons who want the supercar's engine for some reason; the episode is called "Trans-European Express." The second I saw the map, I paused my TV and I sat there in awe trying to wrap my head around it.

    2:12 It would be wrong to give it a 6/10. What do they think happened in World War II if Japan was that close? And where do they think North Korea? Or do they think it should be West and East Korea? 0/10. Literal jaw-dropping.

    I'd like to point out that for the map at 5:53, Bulgaria briefly held that part of the Balkans down to Constantinople. Those were the borders for ~3 months between the First Balkan war and the Second Balkan war. Clearly they found a map for that period and colored it.

    It looks like the map with the T.V. on it is from a CZcams channel called Theinfographicsshow. I have no clue what video this map is from, but you can tell it is that channel because of the icon of the channel on the bottom right corner. Good video as always.
