      Teacher: Name a continent
      Girl: Hawaii
      T: No a continent, Hawaii is a state
      G: ...Hawaii
      T: No turn around

    Out of all the videos that detail joining countries into one = this one would make so much sense for Africa. IMO the darn rulers of a lot of the countries are brutal and keep the people from being able to rise up. I can imagine combining the natural resources and if they can figure out a free and open government society they would be mighty. Africa (the continent) is amazing.

    Africa is simply too big and diverse in many ways to be united. I would like to think that Africa could unite and solve its problems together, but the nature of how the continent works is such that ethnic tensions and warfare are common, meaning that it would be almost impossible for everyone to agree enough of the time for this theorised state to actually function.

    Grass is a ubiquitous plant that covers vast expanses of land. It is an important source of food for many grazing animals and plays a crucial role in the ecological balance of terrestrial ecosystems. Grass also has numerous practical applications, such as in the production of hay, turf for sports fields, and as a renewable energy source through the process of biomass conversion. Additionally, grass has aesthetic value, with its lush green color and soft texture often used in landscaping and gardening. Despite its many benefits, grass can also pose challenges, such as invasive species and the need for frequent maintenance. Overall, grass is a remarkable plant that has shaped the natural world and continues to provide valuable resources to humans and other organisms.

      @Auto Mvsick due to their different customs and cultures. Africa is considered the most diverse place on the planet culturally. The only place which closely resembles this is India which is a country btw not a continent so yeah

      Diamonds are also intrinsically worthless. Besides industrial diamond applications, but those can be synthetic. So I should say "pretty diamonds" are intrinsically worthless, but I guess humans haven't fully evolved past their "oooh shiny things" phase yet.

      Max Hill disagree. Europe and North America could beat asia, expecially since asain russia has not even 50% if the Russian population while European Russia holds the most population including Moscow. Asia would be very strong (stronger than the US) but would it last?? Not sure every nation in Asia would like to obey China and India as they would likely be the head rulers
