Azerbaijan and Armenia actually went to war with each other in the 1910s. The winner was the Soviets who took the opportunity to invade and annex both.
@@89Schultz yep they still love to invade other countries
Yes but in the past armenia and Azerbaijan were friends right?

I think a video on "surprising friendships between countries" might also be interesting. For example, it's obvious that Czech Republic is really good friends with Slovakia, nothing surprising about that, but it can be surprising to many that Czech Republic and Israel are also very good friends...
Probably one of the most bewildering friendships I've seen is with Israel and India. They're two COMPLETELY different cultures and faiths, vastly different in size and in different world regions, yet they have developed extremely close and warm ties since each got their independence in the late 1940s.

@@thunderbird1921 Both have similar religious issues at hand; primarily conflict with Islam. India, however, was much more anti-Israel until Modi took over.
Surprisingly you didnt include greece and Turkey which have been in disputes for 100s of years
I can include it in a part 2!
To be fair, Greece is blatantly in the right. The turks kicked Greeks out of Anatolia, conquered Greece, and genocided them. And even to this day Turkey is still fucking with Greece by intentionally sending migrants to the Greek border
100 hundred? since 1071
Not to mention that it's funny to see that almost all the coastal islands just a few kilometers from Turkey belong to Greece.
I've only got one thing to say about that particular historical rivalry...
Poor Cyprus... :/
In the Vietnam- Cambodia section, the video kind of missed out an important part of the war in 1979- Vietnam intervened to kick out Pol Pot and put and end to the genocide that was starting to spill over their borders. Which then led to the odd situation where during the 80s the US, the UK and China, were all supporting Pol Pot and his former government, against Vietnam and the USSR who were supporting the Anti-KR government.
He should add more detail in that part. For like more reason why Cambodian hate Vietnam, here:
-Anti-Vietnamese sentiment made by Cambodian pro-US politician (Sam Rainsy)
-The lost of the Khmer Krom (Southern Vietnam)
-The Vietnamization of Cambodia during 17-20 Century. (The reason why Pol Pot attacked Vietnam)
-The support of Khmer rouge during Vietnam war
Thanks for the extra information! I had a difficult time finding facts about this
@@General.Knowledge Glad to help! Thanks for the reply.
I agree, the Vietnamese should be eternally thanked for ending Pol Pot’s regime in Cambodia. Over 1m civilians were victims of that mad tyrants genocide. Without Vietnam, more would have died.
Vietnam and Cambodia have always had a checkered history. People often point to the 20th century, but the reality is that Cambodia has traditionally viewed Vietnam as "the hereditary enemy", with the Vietnamese as an expansionist people who have annexed eastern Cambodia. Historically speaking, Vietnam viewed the Khmers as uncivilized barbarians. This difference is all the more evident if you consider how Vietnam's culture has Sinosphere roots, while Cambodia, like Laos and Thailand, is culturally more indianized.
This was very good - and a Part 2 would be most welcome. :-)
As a Chilean I can say we have a lot more problems with Bolivia rather than Peru, for some context we don't even have embassy's with Bolivia. Chile and Peru have some differences but we have almost resolved them, the last one was resolved in 2014 in The Hague.
Oh wow! No embassy is a big sign
You don’t have the Pisco origin problem solved yet.
Wn, acuérdate del pisco
Pleae give Bolivia's coastline back. They deserve it. That war was like 140 years ago.
Yes, because Chile annexed the Bolivian coastline. That's why Bolivia still has a navy.

Argentina and the UK actually do have some common history, the beginning of the Argentine independence movement was when residents of Buenos Aires revolted against a British occupation of the city.
And britain was trying to fight the spanish king whp was a puppet for nipoleons france
but thats the bad what about the good
When america declared the monroe doctrine it had no navy to uphold it rusia, germany and austria had plans to come to america snd forcfuly reunitenthe soanish empire to get a new ally
It was britain who stood up and lended america its royal navy to enforce monroe declaring if anyone breaks the monroe docrine and tried to retake the spanish colonies britain would go to war with them in aid of america
Also the british were involved a lot with invesments, oil, and they were the ones who installed the first railways I think

As a Brit living in Argentina, I'm always bemused by the fact that Argentine TV weather always give the forecast for Las Malvinas, despite the fact that no Argentines live there, and nobody there watches Argentine TV.

@@travelleryu because Britain had no control over India and Pakistans wishes, unlike the Falklands. Look up the cabinet mission plan 1946 before running around complaining that anything positive to do with Britain = jingoism.
It will always be funny how ppl accuse Britishers of not teaching their history and then proceed to not even know their own history properly. You know just as much as Britain apparently… nothing 😐
The context as to why Romania anexed it, is because after winning in WW1, while the Austro-Hungarian empire was split in pieces, Transylvania always had and still has as the biggest ethnic group, what we call today Romanians and unification off all the Romanian speaking lands being an idea, since at least the late 16th century.
romanians only became an undisputable majority in the 18th century.
"Simply switch the territories and migrate the people" has never ever gone wrong before.
Population transfers were surprisingly effective post-WW2 at preventing European ethnic conflict. Although the UN considers forced transfer of population a genocide (and its also what Stalin is famous for...) so it ain't politically viable in general despite its actual effectiveness - at least in Europe.
We indians and pakistans are siblings separated by hateful power play of politics🙂. Like if u agree. We can see indian and pakistani soldiers confronting at wagah border parade but at the same tike behind the stadium we can see them relaxing across the fence and talking happily. 🙂 this is just a disillusion that we hate each other.

Another region that is rarely discussed: Central Asia.
I’m partially Uzbek and Tajik from my mother’s side. Growing up I’ve always been told that Uzbeks are culturally closer to Tajiks than Kazakhs and Kyrgyz people, despite Uzbekistan being a Turkic nation and Tajikistan being Iranic/Persian. Both Uzbekistan and Tajikistan have each other’s ethnic people living as minority groups - probably due to former borders, empires and history. Tajiks still claim Uzbek land (cities of Samarkand and Bukhara) to be theirs while Uzbeks say they have lost a piece of their land (Sughd region (with cities of Khujand and Istaravshan) to Tajikistan. I know it sounds very complex. Also, when it comes to clothing pattern and cuisine, these two countries fight over where the national dish Plov and Adras/Ikat pattern originate from. Personally, I believe they all originate from Uzbekistan, while Chakan pattern being Tajik. I may get a lot heat for saying this, but that’s how the rest of the world know it too 😅
Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan don’t have the best ties either, but gladly the Central Asian countries have not been in war with each other and don’t seem to hold grudge the same way as the countries described in this video.
as a Romanian, I actually never met a Hungarian person in Romania because I used to live so far away from the region of Transylvania.
my hometown is by the Black Sea.
but these days I live and work in Germany and have met many Hungarian people. very friendly people. we never had an issue.
I consider the Hungarians in Romania as citizens and just normal people. hatred is in the hearths and minds of some people, I guess.
at least we aren't like Pakistan/India, Greece/Turkey or Russia/Ukriane.
It's mostly a governmental rivalry not really a a rivalry on a human level. I think.
Most hatred is ingrained; especially hatred based on origin.
Once you get to know somebody, where they come from stops to matter. Unless they harbor some extremist points of view; then you run.
Greek and Turkish people have a lot in common, but the governments hate each other and direct unconscious people to the direction they want: to hatred and ethnicism.
@@user-bm5kj8qo3t well, as a Romanian, Turkey being part of NATO is already a big no go zone for me.
and some even wanted Turkey(a Asian and Islamic country) to join EU.
No thanks!
we already have plenty of problems with Islam in Europe. Erdogan is a disgusting human being. almost a dictator.
but at least out of convenience, Turkey and Russia aren't on good terms anymore.
the "help" Ukriane gets from Turkey is definitely not for free. something happened. something has to be paid in return. cheaper deals, advantages, trade deals, favours, etc.
the hatred between Romania and Hungary is for historical and territorial reasons, but you are European and democratic countries that will never make war with each other. A little like Italy and France, many Italians hate the French, but still many love them

*In 1603 James VI of Scotland succeeded Elizabeth I as King James I - he was king of two independent monarchies.
In 1707 The Act of Union united England and Scotland to form the United Kingdom of Great Britain.
The American colonists rebelled against the King of Great Britain in 1775 and the USA declared war on the Kingdom of Great Britain & Ireland in 1812.

Fun Fact: The rivalry between Pakistanis (British Indian Muslims) and Indians(British Indian Hindus) started way back in the 1800's when Muslims and Hindus revolted against the British. The Hindus switched sides , blaming the Muslims and subsequently betraying the Muslims.

The political status quo is not stopping people from all singing while holding hands under the stars, it's stopping us from killing each other.

Argentina's hatred towards the UK goes back to 1806, when they tried to invade Buenos Aires during the Napoleonic Wars. They tried again in 1807 (also invading Montevideo), being unsuccessful both times. This actually strongly helped to create the Creoles patriotism that would declare independence in 1810, as the Creole militias repelled both invasions with little to no help from the Spanish Army.
If every nation that fought that long ago still hated each other the would would be a nasty place. The truth is the falklands are the provokotive subject.

It doesn’t really feel accurate to call Armenia and Azerbaijan rivals. For Armenians, this conflict isn’t just about the territory. It’s part of a century-long struggle for us to preserve the Armenian culture, which has been in danger of being wiped out by Turkic peoples. That’s all I’ve got to say.

to add to the Peru-Chile one; Chile kept a brutal occupation of the Peruvian coast further than Lima for a few years after the war pillaging many riches and cultural treasures and abusing the population.
Rivalry goes back further though an earlier war had Chile and Argentina break up a union of Peru and Bolivia, but it really goes back to the beginning when Spain got here Pizarro had the claim of the land to the Spanish crown and Almagro that partnered in the expedition went behind his back to get a rival claim further south generating a conflict about the limits
The war against the Peru-Bolivia confederation was won thanks to Peruvian help. I don't know if you know very well the context of the time, but a lot of Peru didn't want that confederation. In regards of the occupation, Peru secretly allied Bolivia and we had no choice but to fight both of you. Lima was occupied as a mean to achieve the conditions we demanded that were initially rejected by Peru.
@@Thewolfans that defensive treaty with Bolivia was a big mistake they were pretty much useless and ran away to the mountains first chance, who knows if Chile would have stopped at Bolivia though.
For the other part in the region there is always some faction or group that cares more about opposing their national enemies than the war in both wars there were some leaders that halted provisions for one commander or other in the Pacific war there was even a president that ran away with a boatload of money to supposedly buy weapons and never came back
Read about the Khmer Rouge their Genesis and why Vietnam ultimately invaded to stop them. Super fascinating.
I know this is just a quick overview video, but I'd say that you tend to misattribute and oversimplify the starts of conflicts, e.g. for India-Pakistan, the main source of the dispute was originally a religious one (hence why the huge population exchange), with Kashmir being a symptom of that, not the other way around. As for Armenia-Azerbaijan, even though the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict in its modern form began in 1988, ethnic tensions have been around since the mid-19th century with rising nationalism + discovery of oil in Baku and subsequent social inequality.
true with the India-Pakistan conflict there is a lot of things that caused the conflict. Basically initially Kashmir was an independant princely state following independence however, from what i understand Pakistan later tried to annex the country and Kashmir to India for help and India agreed on the basis that Kashmir would join India. India did help yet, they only were able to gain what became Jammu and Kashmir. Pakistan claims the area based on religion as the area has a muslim majority population wheras India claims it based on the agreement made, personally i would prefer either Kashmiri independance or it joining India over Pakistan based on this agreement as i do realise that the agreement itself could be identified by some as invalid based on the circumstances.
@@paintingdreams290 The Raja of Jammu & Kashmir had already signed an agreement with Pakistan to either remain neutral (not joining any of the country) or later join Pakistan with some later agreed terms & conditions. The Dogra Maharaja of Jammu & Kashmir violated that agreement by signing an instrument of accession with India. Secondly, Pakistan didn't invade the state of Jammu & Kashmir! A full-on invasion means one sovereign nation-state invading another sovereign nation state with its national army, like Russia invaded Ukraine with its national army in 2022.
What Indians call "Pakistani invasion" was not the official invasion of the state of Jammu & Kashmir by the Pakistani government, rather it was the Pashtun & Tanoli tribesmen from the erstwhile FATA region also known as "Tribal Areas", who went into the state passing through Swat & Amb, which were other 'semi-independent' princely states just like Jammu & Kashmir, bordering J&K and FATA, to assist the local rebels who succeeded their territories from the Maharaja. Pakistani government, in 1948, didn't declare any war on Jammu & Kashmir. Not a single Pakistani soldier set foot in the state before 22 October, 1948.
Pakistan invaded the state after Maharaja signed the instrument with the Indian government, which was the clear violation of an agreement that he already made with the Pakistani government before, to remain neutral until the further negotiation to join Pakistan comes to any conclusion. As Pakistan saw this as a violation of the agreement by the Maharaja, Pakistan invaded the state and boosted its support to Muslim separatists in the state who were demanding to end the minority-led monarchy in the state and later join Pakistan.
Jammu & Kashmir was one of the 567 princely states of the British colonial India. They were in a subsidiary alliance with the British government under which the individual states will have internal autonomy within their states but the Viceroy of India (representative of the British monarch in India) will be responsible for the foreign affairs of all those princely states. Princely states were 'semi-independent' as they had autonomy to rule their states whatever the way they wanted but all of their foreign affairs will be the responsibility of the British government.
More than 78% population of the state of Jammu & Kashmir was Muslim while 15% was Hindu. So, it was a Muslim majority state in 1947 but it was ruled by a Hindu Dogra Maharaja. From 1846-1948, an Apartheid system was established in the state by the Maharaja just like an apartheid system in South Africa where minority was ruling the country through oppressing the majority. In the state of Jammu & Kashmir, the ruling dynasty was a Hindu Brahmin from the Dogra-Punjabi ethnicity. So, the royal family ruling the state was a minority within a minority in the state.
To understand the politics of the state you need to understand that Jammu & Kashmir was (and still is) one of the most ethnically, linguistically and religiously diverse states in the Indian subcontinent. Despite being 78% Muslim majority state, it also had a very strong non-Muslim and non-Kashmiri minorities i.e. Hindus (15%), Buddhists (4%), Sikhs and others (3%). On the ethnolinguistic/racial side, the population was divided into Dardic (Kashmiris, Shins, Kohistanis, etc.) with 43%, Punjabis (Pahari-Pothwari, Pahari-Dogri, Hindkowans, Gurjars, etc.) with 31%, Western Tibetans (Ladakhi-Baltis) with 12% and others (Pamiris, Brusho, Pashtuns, etc.) with nearly 14% population. Overwhelming majority of Hindus in the state belonged to the upper castes like Punjabi-Dogra Brahmins and Kashmiri Pandits. There were many discriminatory laws against Muslims in the state such as Muslims were completely banned from purchasing weapons while Hindus and Sikhs were allowed to own firearms, Muslims had to pay more taxes than Hindus and Sikhs, there were more limits on Muslims of the state to purchase property than Hindus. Over 100% police of the state was composed of Hindus and Sikhs. Not a single Muslim was allowed to join the police. Muslims (from all backgrounds) of the state had been protesting against these discriminatory laws and oppression and were trying to overthrow the monarchy through an armed rebellion since the early 1930's.
Their struggle against the Maharaja was much older than the Pakistan movement though it was heavily influenced by the Pakistan movement of 1930's & 40's and the Two-Nation Theory which asserted the notion that the Muslims of the British India were a separate nation (civilisation) than Hindus. To make a balance in India and to save it from a Civil war after the British withdrawal, two states must be created from the British Indian territories (provinces, states and agencies): one a Muslim majority state/dominion (Pakistan) and the other a Hindu majority state/dominion (Hindustan). Many Muslims supported this movement as they believed that in order to safeguard their interests and to protect their identity & culture, they must have a separate homeland where they were in a numerical majority. This principle is essential for the right of self-determination of any nation. Many Hindu nationalists also believed that in order to protect their Hindu identity, culture and national interests, Hindus must be in a numerical majority (Hindutva).
Many Muslims from the state of Jammu & Kashmir started supporting the Pakistan movement and demanded that the whole state must join Pakistan. Maharaja knew the ground reality of his state. That's why he made an agreement with the Pakistani government to 'remain neutral until further negotiations to join the Pakistani Dominion comes to any conclusion'. With unnecessary delays by the Maharaja, most of the Muslim population rebelled against his rule. They were extremely successful in defeating the forces of the state and annexing them with the Dominion of Pakistan. Almost 36% territory of the state of Jammu & Kashmir joined Pakistan this way. Many British officers, who were stationed there, also supported this rebellion. After losing several districts and agencies of the state, the Maharaja called it as 'interference from Pakistan in his state' and called India for help. Later India, annexed the territory by signing an instrument of accession with the Maharaja of Jammu & Kashmir, which Pakistan to this day considers 'illegal'. Even Kargil and Leh were also liberated by the Muslim freedom fighters of the state but were later occupied by India while some other parts like Kotli and Poonch were later occupied by Pakistan after the war started b/w India & Pakistan.
Later, Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru went to the UN and called for the ceasefire and demanded the UN to solve the Kashmir issue. It was the Indian government that brought Kashmir issue to the United Nations in 1949, and then in Jan 1949, UN called a ceasefire and created the famous Line of Control (LoC) b/w India and Pakistan. India and China went to a war in 1962, which resulted in Indian defeat and China occupying a large chunk of the Indian occupied territory of the state. China also have some overlapping claims in that region (Shaksgham valley, Fukche valley and Aksai Chin). Since then, 55% of the state is occupied by India, 30% by Pakistan and almost 15% by China.
@@Lyallpuriya thx for explaining that
The Indians and Pakistanis are of one origin. The so-called (Pakistan) separated from India, because of the Islamic religion, which forbids and criminalizes living with others.
And the name (Pakistan) means the land of the pure, as opposed to the country of the filthy who separated from it, and the policy of (divide and rule) the British colonialism played a role in igniting that.
@@alannala4501 We are not same!
6:00 In 2008(i think) Kosovo only declared independence , but Serbia deemed "illegal"(Backed by Russia). Illegal as in Serbia believed that Kosovo did not and would not have the right authorization to declare independence, even though the UN saw it as a legit signing. It comes down to, not enough countries recognize Kosovo to be deemed a country by UN standards. Their independence comes down the country that you are in, USA recognizes along with most of the UN. While Russia, Serbia, and some others don't. Please correct me if I am wrong on this, this is just what I know on the subject though some studies along with Yugoslavia and what not
Its de facto independent meaning it has full autonomy in its internal affairs like legislation executive and jurisdiction but 100% approval from the world.
Although its pretty much a sovereign country since half of the world recognizes it and those 50% are mostly developed countries which are vital for trade and diplomacy for improving such a young country
@@soul8938 So i was right to a certain degree, thanks for clearing that up a bit
not Serbia being against smthn and Russia backing it thats how we ended up with World War 1
Kosovo is an independent state whatever Serbia imagines! There are 4 conditons which a make state to be called a state: 1) Defined territory 2) Goverment 3) Population and 4) soverignity and Kosovo meets all these conditions, that's what makes Kosovo a state, Serbia just doesn't like and still claims Kosovo!
Barttle of Kosovo was an battle who took part all balkans (albanians, serbians, bosnians and bulgarians) in 1389 against Ottoman Empire! Kosovo in this time is meantioned just as, battlefield, field of Kosovo, which today is a city in Kosovo called Kosovo Field! Kosovo as a semidependent country has been found in 1877 from Ottoman Empire and not from Serbia! Ottoman Empire during the end of 19th century made reforms and divied the occupied lands into vilayets (province) and albanian lands under Ottoman Empire, in this time have been organized in 4 vilayets: Vilayet of Kosovo, Vilayet of Scodra, Vilayet of Manastir and Vilayet of Janina [you can see them where they were located in google too]!
Kosovo in 1877 has just started being torn apart from Serbia but the full invasion of Kosovo happened in 1912 after the First Balkan War! And it was invaded from Yugoslavia/Serbia untill 1999 but the independece happened in 2008!
I am from Kosovo🇽🇰🇦🇱 btw
I think the most interesting set of rivalries are the ones that are so bad, that FIFA cannot allow the countries to play in the same group stage.
Soccer is a joke
@@Trajan2401 didn't ask, bro.
The pronunciation of some of the country's names is hilarious!!🤣🤣
That was quite good to have other rivalries in South America being covered apart from the ones of which I am already aware, between Peru and Chile and, by extension, Chile and Bolivia, in counterpoint to Peru and Ecuador and Bolivia and Paraguay, as evidenced by the Peruvian-Ecuadorian War of 1941 and the Chaco War of 1932 - 1935, which perhaps get overlooked in Europe. I'll never forget reading the words 'Peruvian Blitzkrieg' looking into the Peruvian-Ecuadorian War, two words which I never expected to see next to each other!
I run the Fan Blog ('Bananas For Breakfast') to Valérie Čižmárová - who, incidentally, recorded a tribute song ('Huascarán') to fifteen mountaineers from Czechoslovakia who perished in the Ancash Earthquake of 31st May 1970 in Peru - who was a Hungarian-Slovak, despite performing virtually all of her recorded repertoire in Czech in Prague, so perhaps you could look at Hungarian-Slovak rivalries to go with Hungarian-Romanian ones sometime, which themselves led to another largely forgotten war of the 1930s/1940s in the spring of 1939, which was strange to see between two notional allies of Hitler's Germany.
Wow, as a Peruvian I didn't know about the mountaineers from the earthquake. Pretty interesting information!
@@mauricioruiz522 I'm glad I could fill you in on that historical background. I hadn't been aware of that disaster all that much until I had stumbled across Valérie Čižmárová on the Web back in 2015, so that was quite an education to me. I don't know if it's anything to do with being one of the key countries of origin of bananas but I have a regular Blog follower in Peru's opponents in that mini-war, Ecuador, checking up on the Blog statistics.
Strangely, in a way, Valérie Čižmárová's path crossed with another disaster of the Seventies on the South American continent, by commencing the recording of the one-and-only studio album of her recording career on 1st February 1974 - the day of the Joelma office block fire in São Paulo.
Argie here, we keep claiming the islands out of respect for the conscripts that fought for it but I can say with confidence that today there is no real animosity towards the british people, peace to both countries
As a brit. I can confirm that u r right. brits r more annoyed pissed about the hand of god than the war.

@@fjeletrol4904 As a Brit, I have no idea what 'the hand of god' is
@@Daniel-gs9eh its not anything historical its football. its a English thing really. basically at the World Cup in 1986 England was doing well was in the semi final (idk if you watch football) meaning if they won that match and the one after that they would of been in the finals. anyways the captain and one of the worlds most famous players Diego Maradona Hand balled the ball in the net from the goalkeeper causing Argentina to score and go on to win the match 2-1 and later the World Cup. knocking England out of the tournament. if that goal hadn't had counted, Argentina wouldn't of won the match. And England "could of" scored again and went on. Fifa later admitted that he had cheated but like most incidents like this Fifa let it slide. like every other football fan that thinks or has been wronged (most of the time it is thought) they have never let it go

It’s a real shame since both countries are so beautiful and have extremely similar cultures
It makes sense strategically, Greece and Turkey block each other, this was a problem in the past but I see no reason why we should fight it out in the 21st century -_- ultra-nationalists can have their wet dreams during night time.

Any educated Hungarian knows that Transilvania was a separate state inside the empire when the Austria-Hungary was an empire. They got their independence and joined the other states.
Szekely in Romania are not "ze-kel-lae" its C.K., as in Louis C.K.
”Romania celebrating the annexation” wtf
Romania celebrates the union with Transylvania, which was the final part of the Great Union, on December 1st, which is the National Day of Romania.
yeah, this video makes it sound as if Romania illegally stole some land from another country. It was hungarians who were illegally ocupying what was romanian territory since the roman times with the vast majority of its population being romanians. The unification was a natural occurence where a long lasting wrong was done right. It's not an annexation. Its taking back romanian territory that had no business being part of hungary
I appreciate you called them both Falklands and Malvinas instead of going for just one of them. Going neutral and being objective is something very few people do, especially in the english speaking side of the web, when touching that topic.
their isnt really a neutural tho argentinas claim is based on the bullshit pope line that no country recognises anymore spain never even owned the island they tried to but briatian stoped them
Actual time line
The falklands was never truly spains anyway
France and britain originaly created first settlemnts their when it was literaly uninhabitable not even native americans lived their just penguins
The pope said some shit about land belonging to spain and portugal in the new world spain said britain france get off my island the pope says its mine
France left and britain kicked spain back off the island and kept its claim
so the idianthey could inheret it from spain purely comes from the bullshit pope argument that no country has recognised in hundreds of years
the islands inhabitants are british pilgrims who set up shop , some spanish that came from a group of spanish cowboysnthat stayed under britains rule and few imigrants its tiny population is majority white british and all have britosh citizenship
The solution I always propose for the Falklands: The 3000 humans who live there should retain their British citizenship, but the 500,000 sheep should be given Argentine citizenship.

7:33 that is the map of French Indochina during colonial times around the 18th century; PRK existed as a communist state and was supported by Vietnamese too, but its borders were almost the same as they are the ones of the actual country of Cambodia.
Both Artsakh/Nagorno-Karabakh and Nakhichevan were part of Soviet Armenia and transferred to Soviet Azerbaijan by the USSR to appease Atatürk and the newly established Republic of Turkey. Tensions stayed relatively low as both nations were part of the USSR but in the late 80s there were Anti Armenian pogroms in Azerbaijan as the unraveling of the USSR meant ethnic tensions could surface
