CHINESE POLITICS EXPLAINED SIMPLY || WHY IS CHINA IMPORTANT? @LondonCityGirl

LondonCityGirl Hi Everyone, I’m creating a series on world politics and this is the first instalment where I’ve chosen to focus on China.

Why Vine failed? || What happened to Vine?

LondonCityGirl 2023-05-14 | Vine was a social media platform where users could create 6-second looping videos. Launched in 2013 it became the most used video sharing application in the market within a matter of months.

However, despite its initial success, Vine faced several challenges which led to its parent company, Twitter, shutting it down in late 2016, early 2017.

Vine was out competed by other social platforms, such as Instagram and Snapchat, launching similar short form video features.

Vine was also unable to effectively monetise content and it struggled with moderation issues, facing criticism for allowing inappropriate content to be shared.

TikTok, owned by Chinese tech giant ByteDance shares a very similar concept to Vine but has proved to have more staying power owing to better management and faster adaptation in response to user demands.

What happened to the ozone hole?

LondonCityGirl 2023-04-28 | The ozone layer is a region in the Earth's stratosphere that absorbs most of the Sun's ultraviolet radiation and it contains a high concentration of ozone (O3) in relation to other parts of the atmosphere.

In the 1970s and 80s scientists discovered that the ozone layer was thinning. The cause was found to be the release of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and other man-made chemicals into the atmosphere.

A thinning Ozone layer meant more UV radiation was able to reach the Earth's surface which can cause harmful effects such as increased rates of skin cancer and cataracts.

In response to this discovery, the international community came together in 1987 to sign an agreement to phase-out CFCs and other ozone-depleting substances.

This has led to a slowing of the rate of ozone depletion and the eventual healing of the ozone layer is projected to occur over the next several decades.

5 weird facts about North Korea || Government approved hairstyles?!

LondonCityGirl 2023-03-28 | There are a lot of odd things about North Korea, the country under such strict authoritarian rule that people aren't able to travel freely in and out and communication with the outside world is rigorously controlled.

Today we list 5 weird facts about North Korea we do know.

1). North Korea has a unique calendar system that starts from the birth year of its founder, Kim Il-sung (1912).

2). North Koreans are required to wear lapel pins bearing the image of one of the country's leaders at all times.

3). The country has a strict dress code, with government-approved hairstyles for men and women.

4). North Korea has its own version of the Internet, known as Kwangmyong, which is only available to a select group of people and is heavily censored.

5).The country has a social class system which is based on family background and loyalty to the regime. The system determines access to education, job opportunities, and other state-provided goods and services.

What is the Illuminati? || The secret society that runs the world?

LondonCityGirl 2023-03-21 | Is there a secret society trying to establish a New World Order? We look at the rumoured Illuminai organisation and explain what it is.

The Illuminati historically refers to the Bavarian Illuminati, a secret society that operated for only a decade or so, from 1776 to 1785. The society's goals were to oppose superstition, corruption, religious influence over public life and abuses of state power.

After the group disbanded conspiracy theories about the Illuminati have persisted to the present day.

In contemporary usage, the term "Illuminati" refers to a supposed shadowy organisation, made up of powerful groups and individuals that control world events through their influence on governments, financial systems, and other institutions.

Some suggest that the Illuminati are working to create a New World Order.

Many experts have debunked the idea of the Illuminati, pointing out that many of the supposed "proofs" of the Illuminati's existence are based on misinformation, misinterpretation and even outright fabrications.

What happened to Concorde? || The plane that could fly faster than the speed of sound!

LondonCityGirl 2023-03-07 | What happened to the supersonic airliner, the Concorde? Why was it retired from service after so much fanfare?

Concorde was able to fly across the Atlantic Ocean in a little less than 3.5 hours whereas other airplanes took about 8 hours.

However the fleet was eventually retired due to a combination of factors, including high operating costs, declining passenger numbers, and environmental concerns related to its high fuel consumption and noise pollution.

The 2000 crash of an Air France Concorde flight, which resulted in 113 deaths, dealt a significant blow to the reputation of the aircraft and hastened its retirement which came in 2003.

DARK MATTER & DARK ENERGY EXPLAINED SIMPLY

LondonCityGirl 2020-01-31 | This video explains dark matter and dark energy in less than 4 minutes.

Dark matter makes up about 27% of the known Universe, and dark energy makes up the other 68%. We know very little about dark matter and dark energy - hence the word ‘dark’ being used to describe both.

Dark matter is a form of matter that does not interact with light and so it is invisible to us. This video explains how we know it’s there and what we think makes up dark matter.

Dark energy was discovered after experimental evidence showed that the expansion of the Universe was accelerating, rather than decelerating.

What was causing this acceleration was dubbed dark energy.

Dark energy, can be thought of as a property intrinsic to space and it’s behind the expanding Universe.

WORLD WAR 1 EXPLAINED SIMPLY - what the heck happened?

LondonCityGirl 2019-11-12 | Hi Everyone,

World War I can be a confusing one to understand owing to the number of interweaving alliances and agreements between the great European powers which meant countries from all over the world were drawn into the conflict.

The war resulted in the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian, German, Russian and Ottoman empires as well as the death of millions.

The aftermath of the war would sow the seeds for the rise of the Nazis in Germany which would result in another global war being fought just two decades later - World War II.

Today I’m going to try and explain what led up to World War 1 and to try and make sense of what happened during the four year period during which the war raged on.

TRIANGLE (2009) - ILLUSTRATED EXPLANATION

LondonCityGirl 2019-07-05 | Hi Everyone, today I’m sharing with you my illustrated explanation of the mind bending British-Australian film Triangle.

The film that centers on a single mum, trapped in two intersecting time loops, trying desperately to get back to her son. The video will work through the time loops first and then it will go into why our protagonist is trapped in her time loop.

As always I hope you enjoy this video and thank you to all my subscribers for your ongoing support :)

WHY WE CRAVE A LIFE WE CAN’T AFFORD? || KEEPING UP WITH THE KARDASHIANS

LondonCityGirl 2019-06-25 | Hi Guys,
Late last year I got into minimalism and thinking about my spending habits. I’m pretty frugal by nature and it’s been a great fit. (You can actually follow my journey on my vlog channel - tinyurl.com/yxjnx6oh).

My foray into minimalism and my interest in personal finance made me start wondering why we have the urge to spend on things we don’t need. And why is it that it seems like we are never satisfied?

So I created this video! I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it :)

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE OTHER TYPES OF HUMANS?

It’s incredible to think that we were not the only type of human species in the world … in fact there were at least six more species that existed here on Earth.

Today we explore what happened to the other types of human species, why they became extinct and why we homo sapiens continue to exist.

Illustrations of the different human species based on the following works:

ALL OF HUMAN HISTORY IN 6 MINS

LondonCityGirl 2018-10-28 | Hi Everyone,

Earlier this year I uploaded a History of Mankind video which lasted for over 20 minutes and I felt that it didn’t reach as many people as I had hoped. I suspect it may have been something to do with the length so I’ve done some heavy duty editing and created this video here.

I know that I’ve titled this video ALL of human history but let’s be real, it’s obviously impossible to include ALL of human history in one video. I’ve tried to include the key moments in our collective history and the rule of thumb was, if an event impacted or continues to impact a significant proportion of the world’s global population then it made the video.

Also not every single large empire has been included; instead I’ve attempted to keep the largest and most well known ones in.
