Almost everywhere you go, you'll run into densely packed towns and cities. But one region is surprisingly empty: the Baltic countries of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. Less than 1% of Europe's population lives in these three countries. And even Finland, far more north and far colder, has as many people are all three Baltics countries combined. So why do so few people live in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania?In this video, we'll cover the extensive geography of all three countries, the deep and shockingly dark history of how each became the countries they are today, and, finally, why so few people live there today despite each being modern and fairly wealthy countries within the European Union.--Stock footage and music acquired from www.envato.com, www.storyblocks.com and videvo.net.

And those that lived there at the time, sought to create a brand new state in North Carolina's absence.

This leaves the deep northeast as one of the least densely populated parts of the country, but with the odd distinction of being within the most densely populated region of the country.

While the country is often defined as a single entity, the reality is that there are actually closer than 12 nations united under a single flag. Within the United States today, there are different cultural nations that each have their own values, priorities and preferences. And each of these nations compete and cooperate with each other depending on the issues. Oh, and the most important bit? These nations do NOT fall along state borders.In this video, we'll cover what the 12 Nations of America are, how they formed historically and what they look like geographically, what it means for a single country to actually have 12 different nations within it, and what each nation would look like IF they were ever independent.**BIG STRONG NOTE HERE** This is not intended to be a "the US is going to break up and these will be the nations that come out of it" video. The US is a single country today and will continue to be a single country. This is a video that outlines what cultural nations exist TODAY within the single country and how that impacts the US at large. --Stock footage and music acquired from www.envato.com, www.storyblocks.com and videvo.net.

Why Guyana, Suriname And French Guiana Arent South American Geography By Geoff 2025-04-22 | 🌆 Vietnam's modern metropolis is BOOMING: youtu.be/VDJIf0G0B5g?si=ZjJRAAHVMQHTgu0T --📝 Get more geography here: geographicgeoff.substack.com--🌳 Find me elsewhere: https://linktr.ee/geoffgibson🗺️ Map store: geoffxmuirway.comSouth America is a large continent comprised of the very large and prominent countries of Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Colombia and many more. But there's three countries on the same land mass as the rest of South America - Guyana, Surinam, and French Guiana - that don't feel much like South America at all! In fact, they're often left out of all conversations, organizations, and references when South America is thought of as a single unit. So why are the Guianas not considered to be South American?In this video, we'll cover the unique geography of the three countries and how they're geologically isolated from the rest of South America, the history of each and why they speak English, Dutch and French, and why, ultimately, the Guianas have more in common the with the Caribbean than they do with their Spanish and Brazilian-speaking neighbors.--Stock footage and music acquired from www.envato.com, www.storyblocks.com and videvo.net.

By nearly every metric the country is outperforming its Southeast Asia neighbors, particularly as companies aim to shift manufacturing away from China due to global economic concerns. Because of this, the country has a growing middle class, educated population, and prominence on the world stage. In fact, in many ways, Vietnam could outpace Japan over the next few decades. But this doesn't mean Vietnam is without its own challenges.In this video, we'll cover the physical geography of Vietnam, the history of the country and how it became the Vietnam we know today, and why Vietnam is poised to become the Southeast Asia power that has never truly existed, perhaps even rivaling Japan in the near future.--Stock footage and music acquired from www.envato.com, www.storyblocks.com and videvo.net.

Despite this, one Carolina (North Carolina) has become the DOMINANT Carolina, leaving the other (South Carolina) as a relatively forgotten state. But while this might make sense today, it wasn't all that long ago that South Carolina was actually the wealthier, larger and more important Carolina. So what happened and why does North Carolina have so many more people than South Carolina?In this video, we'll cover the similar but still different physical geographies of the two states, the history of how the states began as a single colony before breaking apart, and why North Carolina surged ahead in the 1800s despite South Carolina being far wealthier in the 1700s. --Stock footage and music acquired from www.envato.com, www.storyblocks.com and videvo.net.

Despite this, over 3,700 people have opted to make their home and life here. And from everything we can gather, those 3,700 people are pretty happy! So if it's such an inhospitable place to live for climate, then why does anyone want to live there in the first place. And more to that point, why can't anyone move in, even if they're British citizens?In this video, we'll cover the unique and barren physical geography of the Falklands, the unique colonial history of between France, Britain, Spain and Argentina, and why so many people (relatively) have chosen to make their life in the Falklands (and why even other British citizens can't).--Stock footage and music acquired from www.envato.com, www.storyblocks.com and videvo.net.
