Hey, they are Europe's last colonial empire so they have that over other west European nations.

To be fair the largest colonial empire that still exists in landmass is that of Denmark.

France ain't even second place anymore though. At this point France is the world's fifth-leading military power or so, and that's AFTER downgrading Russia to like 20th place.

I find it crazy how many people think that BRICS is an anti-american alliance, as if you could get India and China in the same alliance, plus South Africa adds nothing. Someone showed me a TikTok where a guy broke down possible invasion plans for BRICS like..... what are you guys talking about?

I agree. I'm pretty sure the only people who actually take BRICS seriously are the propaganda pigs on social media and random people around the third world that hate the US. I mean most of the countries in BRICS are probably gonna collapse in one way or another in the next 13 months - 50 years and that doesnt even consider all the unaligned geopolitical objectives that will be tearing them apart in the immediate future. I will also agree that it's unbearably cringe watching all these dôrks, essentially slobbering over BRICS like it changes anything.

Brics is like a bunch of investors who put money inro something and forgot to invest it turning the exchange into worthless money traded in from air and not actually purchasing anything meaningful to become income backed by anything. A quick buck of paper for paper without financial worth.

As I read the news coming out of India, "Oh my; if it isn't exactly what I said would happen. We're all getting together to replace the dollar. The Rupee will be the new fiat, no wait, here comes the Yuan, no wait, here comes the Peso....."

Wait does this represent civilizations or when their governments were created? If the former then Greece should be in white if the latter then Poland should be red?

Finland should be red on this map as it was declared independent from Russia in 1917. Infact, why is Russia not red? If the UK is 1707 Act of Union, modern Russia should be red too no?

My medieval America map is one of the things I'm most proud of, it was really fun to make.

I guess the linguistic border in northern Mali would do good to add the tuaregs as well, now it seems like Azawad is Arab

We originally designed this for short video, of course that didn't hold up for too long 😅. If you make it fullscreen you should see playback controls, and we're designing an update to handle this

Who agrees that Canada will fall to the US, and if you disagree what's your reasoning?

I think that America would have to be seen as a good country on the International stage for Canada to be integrated

19 Comments

Your video on the subject doesn't even really agree with the thesis. You put up a scenario where Canada becomes just Ontario (which is already >50% of anglo Canada), but not one where Canada ceases to exist.

Canada as the anti-America might become a shadow of its former self, but it will always exist, and ultimately it NEEDS to exist. People who dislike the American project need somewhere to go so they don't disturb it.

Canada is simply not integrated with itself. It is practically already a part of the U.S.

I got in an argument with my uncle about this last year at our collective birthday party lol (we have the same birthday).

I basically made the point that the lack of an electoral college takes away virtually all power from the middle of the country and makes it so that only the coasts have power in the country, while appeasing Quebec. As you can tell I took a few points from WAH's video.
