  • The answer to "How many countries are there" is "Depends on who's gun I'm staring down the barrel of".
  • walks into UN HQ's General Assembly starts counting gets arrested
  • This is the thing I love about CGP Grey. His videos are so high quality that you cannot say if the video was from 2013 or 2020...
  • Fun fact, work in an immigration-related field and in my job interview they asked me this very question. And because I watched this video, I was able to give them an impressively comprehensive answer. Thanks Grey!
  • @Tony.H03
    Can we just take a minute to appreciate how CGP calls every country 'she', except Vatican City, 'given his demographics'. Well played, CGP, well played.
  • "Easy, just grab a map and start counting" Yakko Warner comes in and starts dancing.
  • We need a definition of a country that implicitely recognizes Sealand as a country.
  • 4:13 I would pay significant money to watch some Cardinals play in the olympics. Special medals for "most broken hips".
  • @maxis2k
    "Okay, no more politics!" That's literally the only thing that defines countries.
  • Vatican city needs to hold the olympics. Just imagine. Professional Latin reading or Preaching.
  • @lwfawn
    The fact that Kazakhstan was #4 in the beginning is nice. A usually overlooked country got to shine here.
  • Watching this video 9 years later, knowing what happened recently in Tansnistria, Karabakh and Ossetia is weird.
  • @Baiken_3D
    “Hong Kong: makes no claims to independence” That didn’t age well.
  • @KB65YT
    Me searching in google: Is Taiwan a country? China wants to know your location
  • @879PC
    Man, I'm sad to know CGP Grey doesn't support my plans to make a small island nation off the coast of Canada :(
  • Another consideration is whether the UK is one country or four. It is one unitary sovereign state and often counted as one in these lists. But the comprising nations are definitely thought of as countries (as opposed to states or prefectures) with their own national identities, culture, languages and sports teams.
  • So is Skyrim considered a country or still part of the Empire?
  • @DraakMD
    Giving Vatican city's demographics, divine intervention would be required to take home a gold.. HAHAHA
  • It took me the entire video to realize that this is 9 years old. This aged remarkably well
  • The bit about Taiwan makes me so happy, I’m sometimes afraid of telling mainland Chinese that I’m taiwanese just in case they get really mad and start calling me weird names like traitor and stuff, but honestly Taiwan in all consideration, should be a country, it has everything to be a country but it’s just mainland China wouldn’t let go of this island
