I Asked 300 Minecraft Players to Build A New Central America 

Make sure that you watch this video in yellow for the authentic Mexico experience according to Breaking Bad Thanks everyone for taking part in this build! For rules and connection info for the server give the description a look

The plot twist is that RT is not a streamer and he does not have an audience. He has been building all of this by himself.

A taco in the middle of nowhere for no apparent reason really shows the embodiment of this series and I love it

As the one who made the clickbait arrows, I am proud of how it turned out. Also I now have PTSD of red arrows.

It is fairly accurate to have an oxxo everywhere because sometimes they are only two blocks away from each other

Im mexican american and this has been so hilarious to watch. The pronunciation of the elote and jarrito made me spit out my soda lol You're a gift dan. Everyones builds were so nice as well.

Can't believe RT hasn't ever had a tall cold glass of Conk

I like how this new Central America keeps the Insanity of IRL Central America without any of the gun violence

I don't blame him for the butchering of some spanish words and names But I still died inside lmao

The end title card is nice and wholesome as it usually is, but what those on the actual Minecraft server heard were the sounds of hundreds of goat horns constantly blaring, almost like an air-raid siren. Not even those in the stream heard the misery that everyone was letting out.

It'a great to see some ancient mesoamerican builds. By far my favorite piece of history in Central America with the Mayans, -Incans,- and Aztecs. Edit: and Olmecs too!

The meteor impact site was actually really educational, I’m a bit shocked by the sheer scale of those numbers

Fun fact, at the stream’s end RT was asking mods to teleport him back to spawn bc he couldn’t find it, but then found it a second later due to all the clickbait arrows

Tbh his pronunciation of Huitzilopochtli, provided it was the first time he had ever come across that word, was pretty good. 9 out of 10 Mexicans struggle with that word the first time they read it, according to me, one of those 9 mexicans

Fun fact: My history teacher's grandpa actually helped with the creation of Panama after the war of independence, he discussed the terms of independence and separation from Colombia.

Fun fact for anyone interested!! The red/scarlet macaw (y'know, the big colorful bird in the thumbnail [which hasn't been threfor a while so rip]) is actually Honduras' national bird! It has been since 1993, and it's represented in the new 200 Lemp bill that came out last year. It can be found in the more forested areas of the country, like Gracias a Dios (Spanish for Thank God), Atlántida and Colón, all of which are departments and have beautiful tourist spots. We call it "Guacamaya Roja" or "Guara Roja" here in case you wanted to know. That aside, I'm really happy you made this video RT! I know these builds are of the whole world, so of course there will be a Central America build, but as a Honduran myself, i rarely see stuff about Central America that isn't related to bad news about drugs or the like. I've waited a while to see this, and I'm glad it's finally here. Gracias RT 🙌

Watching Dan butcher Spanish terms and names is funny but his appreciation for the more serious and historical builds here is heartwarming as always

YES, FINALLY, *IT'S FUCKING Ñ TIME* People may think that "oh México got represented by tacos, that's so stereotypical" but like, they _are_ pretty important to us, and a big part of our culture. I'm also happy to see a lot of prehispanic ruins, as they were really cool builds with a lot of meaning to us! I'm also happy to see hell on earth, AKA Oxxo, represented in the server. I have no access to the server, but could someone who does please do me a favor and set one on fire? It would be incredibly cathartic after working in one, thanks in advance

Don't worry about pronunciation of gods, it's pretty hard even for some people in Mexico but saying pollo like polo makes me feel dead inside.

Listening to RT trying to pronounce 'El Chavo del Ocho' and Chespirito's other works made my ears bleed. 10/10, this is the quality content I'm here for.

I would love to see a stream where it's purely RT trying to pronounce difficult words

I have a blue light filter that's constantly on, on my phone, so everything has a slight yellow tint, and I've had it for so long that removing the filter makes everything feel too bright and saturated. It's like walking outside after secluding yourself in a dim lit room for a day

just played omori for the first time recently and i got such a huge smile on my face when i saw someone built Something. mad respect to whoever did that build

As a Mexican viewer, I've been waiting for the day that Latin America would get represented, since RT had yet to butcher my language. Needless to say, I am extremely disappointed and got my turn to cringe at the mad lad. Thanks for all the smiles, love you Drift King. ❤

Fun fact about the meteor that took out the dinosaurs, RT; there is actually a global marker of the impact shown by a layer or iridium in the rock record often called the K/T Boundary (Kretaceous/Tertiary Boundary). The iridium from the meteorite was shot into the atmosphere and scattered as dust around the world.

came round over the past few months and i have a shitty timezone so i miss most streams but today i learnt that other aussie people managed to convince you that drop bears exist? man i love my country

As someone who lives only like, a mile or so from the border to Mexico, I kinda feel bad that the most I've actually learned about central America is from a video about a Minecraft building server.

The eagle and snake on the Mexican flag is from the aztec story of receiving a divine message to build their capital city where they saw the eagle eating a snake on a prickly pear cactus. They saw it in the middle of a lake, forming Tenochtitlan, now modern day Mexico City.

it is almost time... YOU ALL SHALL COME TO BRASIL! love this series and dont want to see it end, so we should go to Mars

Dan pronouncing Jarrito as jar-ito hurt so much 🤣 they're very good sodas and I highly recommend them Also, the eagle eating the snake on the Mexican flag is based off a foundational myth. Scientists had found evidence at the Chicxulub crater illustrating how devastating the impact was: the meteor crashed through the atmosphere so unbelievably fast and - because of its size - superheated the air between it and the earth, boiling water and melting sand. They found fish fossils with glass in their lungs - meaning they were still alive when they breathed in molten glass.

Fun Fact: "Mexican Coke" actually refers to the tall glass bottles of Coca Cola that are made from pure cane sugar.

I love how quickly it switches from "How cool, it's a fun cultural lesson" to laughing hysterically when Dan is disappointed by the relentless memes. It's genuinely cool because as an american and minority, a lot of this I learned from friends who visit their families in mexico and it's interesting seeing other people in other countries learn stuff too. The internet is kinda cool.

The funny thing is his pronunciation of Huitzilopochtli wasn’t even that far off

Half of my family lives in Mexico, So I can’t express enough just how funny it was to see the Oxxo (i have fond memories of walking over to the one closest to my cousin’s house when we were little), wondering how many other references I would get, thinking to myself if I’d see a reference to El Chavo, and then being ABSOLUTELY BLOWN THE FUCK AWAY BY 8:57. GAMALICUS WEY DIOS TE BENDIGA 🥺

as someone who actually knows spanish i now feel the pain of all the other languages RT has pronounced throughout this whole series lmfao

As somebody who grew up hiking a historic local canal during my childhood, I appreciate the lock they were messing around with on the Panama Canal.

im honestly so happy that at least a bit of Costa Rica was made with our national bird hehe, we dont really have much to our name, but we do have some round stone balls, legit nowhere else in the world are stone balls as smooth and round as the ones we have, but if you find one somewhere else in the planet remember, they stole them from us XD

As a mexican seeing the ofrenda made my heart melt (´∀`);also since i couldnt join the stream due to reasons ill be putting some mexican food facts around here: 1.- taco's can be filled with a lot of things there isnt rules when it comes to make one the only rule is that it has to have a "tortilla" and not a hard shell 2.- even tho taco bell is famous for their food there isnt one im mexico due to their food being expensive and not even a smidge close to actual mexican food (its from texas), so much that when they tried to bring taco bell to mexico it Failed in less than a month (twice!) 3.- (this ones a bit nasty but interesting) since there wasnt any pigs or cows in mexico before the spanish, the tacos and other food where made of guajolote(wild turkey), fish, boars or prisioners of war, acording to aztecs you were able to bring anyone you killed during a war and eat it, this was such a common practice that when Hernan Cortes arrived they trew a party with suspitious meat in it 4.- one of the most famous foods in mexico is "Pozole" a "soup" that contains lettuce, onion, pig, radish and chickpea you can aslo add pepper, lemon juice and orégano its one of the taistest foods ever and very great 4.5 (Fact by: @Renata Laritza ) original pozole was also made of humans and was reseved for special ocations it was replaced by the spanish with pork since its flavor was the closest 5.- "tamales" are also important cuisine they are cooked corn dough filled with meat or corn wraped around in a banana's tree leaf they are tasty, chonky (sometimes spicy) and over all a great dinner, even if it makes you fat :p Any ways thats all i remember for now, if i got any spelling mistakes please tell me and ill try to correct that, Byes ( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ

Coming off of the whole Tacos in Norway thing, I always find it interesting how cuisine spreads and changes from culture to culture. There's so many ways that different places prepare similar meals that's so fascinating. Not to mention it can help to trace history and how various cultures have crossed paths throughout history.

Jarrito is pronounced "Harrito" and is incredibly delicious.

Can't wait for the Caribbean! I wonder what they'll build for Jamaica

mexican coke is indeed a real thing. Made with real cane sugar as opposed to artificial sweeteners

I like how he just glossed over the parrot fact about the red arrow lmao

Viva Mexico Cabrones! Sorry couldn't resist now that RT opened it up Edit: People building the barrel for El Chavo De Ocho made me tear up ngl. Made my childhood that. Glad to see that along the history being talked about in the build. Another Edit: Vicente Fernandez, maaaan my heart is being tugged so hard from these builds ;-;

As a Guatemalan this is pretty cool:) glad Guatemala got recognized.

Hello! I want to say thank you so much for including my cactus garden. I'm glad you enjoyed it! You are right though that it was very hard to depict the different types of cactus but I tried my best! Seeing this make the highlights made my day ♥️

I missed this build :( I wanted to make a monument to the patricks, the irish soldiers that helped us in the war against the US. I also wanted to make a Poinsettia (the red flower people usually use for christmas) because the flower is native to southern Mexico and Central America

I'm from Costa Rica and I approve of this (I haven't even watched it yet but I'm sure it's going to be great)

Someone please give him a pronunciation guide for each region

13:15 somebody needs to head to the Canada part of this minecraft world, add some meteor fragments somewhere

4:36 the comedy of him pronouncing it actually perfectly correct

5:20 The armored popemobile in Cars also proves the existence of assassination attempts on that same pope.

The way RT just pronounced Elote, completely butchering it unknowingly. It just killed me

Espero que tenha brasileiros o suficiente pra representar o Brasil xD ~Tão daora ver Chaves sendo representado, provavelmente vai ter ainda mais quando chegar a vez do Brasil...

I cant fucking believe i would live to see the day that "Un millón de primaveras" would be adapted un Minecraft, im so happy

I love all the Mayan culture in this video. The Mayans live on, and the enthusiasm seen here is proof of that.

Hi RT! (and the rest of the community), here's a couple fun facts about Mexico based on what I saw on the video (which may or may not have been mentioned during the stream): -Huitzilopochtli (it was written wrong in that sign and it's pronounced "wi + t + zi + lo + po + ch + tli") is the aztec god that, among other things, represented war and most sacrifices were performed in his name. -Quetzalcoatl (also written wrong, pronounced "ke + t + zal + koa + tl") is the aztec god related to wind and light among other things. Contrary to popular belief, he is not the main deity in the aztec pantheon (that title belongs to huitzilopochtli). Furthermore, there is a pretty similar deity to him in the Mayan pantheon known as "Kukulkán". -Oxxos are SO common in Mexico that you can even find them in some "traditional" towns which mantain the architecture from decades (if not centuries) ago. Because of this, they adapted themselves to resemble said "old" designs and, as a result, you can often find Oxxos that look as if they were mere houses from the outside. If you're curios about this you can search "oxxos en pueblos magicos" in google. -There isn't a single Taco-centered food chain that spans across the entire country. Of course, there are local Taco food chains which are extremely popular in their respective states, but there isn't something like, for example, Mc donalds' burgers in the US. -Saying "El chavo del 8" is a famous program that entertained hundreds is a HUGE underestimation. It is, without a doubt, the most popular and influential TV program in Mexico and also one of the biggest (if not THE biggest) programs in all of latin america (curiously enough, it seems like Brazil is the second biggest fan of said character, and I say curious because they watched it translated to portuguese). About 300 million people watched it every week during its prime (the 70s) and it has been dubbed to over 50 languages across the entire world (though it never caught enough attention outside of latin america). It's a program I would HIGHLY recommend since, despite being almost 50 years old, it still manages to perfectly represent Mexican culture (without the drug stuff) and what it is to grow as an "average kid" in here. However, be warned: a lot of jokes MAY be lost in translation if you watch it in any other language other than latin spanish. -The "Chapulin Colorado" ("chapulin" means "grasshopper" and "colorado", though it literally means "colorful", in this instance is used as "red", so basically "red grasshopper") is perhaps the second most popular character in Mexico and, indeed, he's been present in some bizarre places like fortnite. -The symbol of the eagle eating a snake on a nopal cactus is said to reference, according to legends, the imagery that the aztec founders saw when they first arrived at the place that would later become Tenochtitlán, their capital (and what is now Mexico City, our capital). -I love nopal cactus!!!, though a lot people here do not because of its weird texture (it's very slimy and chewy, like a gummy bear, but softer). If you wanna imagine more or less how it would taste, imagine a tomato but with tons of lime (nopal cactus is pretty sour). I would personally recommend to eat it mixed with scrambled eggs. -I also LOVE tuna fruits (the fruit of a nopal cactus). I don't know how common or popular they are in other parts of the world, but I would 100% recommend them. They are SO sweet and refreshing. They do have a TON of seeds, but they're really small and you can swallow them without any issue. -Small side note on spanish: whenever you see a "ch" in a word, it is always pronounced like the "ch" in "chair". Whenever you see a "ll" in a word, it is always pronounced like the "j" in "Jason" or the "y" in "you". Finally, and unlike english, our vocals are ALWAYS pronounced in ONE way: the "a" is pronounced like the "a" in "apple", the "e" is pronounced like the "e" in "Ema", the "i" is pronounced like the first "i" in "indigo", the "o" is pronounced like the first "o" in "Ohio", and for the "u" I cannot think of an specific example, sorry :p -About the "altar de muertos" or "ofrenda", the one represented in Coco is by no means innacurate, but it's definetely the simplest design you can get (photos coupled with some candles and food). If you're interested, I would recommend you look into the BIGGER "ofrendas" which look like stairs. Each step of said stairs has an actual meaning (even if it varies from place to place) and each object present also carries a heavy symbolism. Overal, the stair shape represents the path "the death" have to follow in order to reach heaven, the candles (and often times salt) is there to guide them, and the food is for their journey. It's really worth checking out if you have the time!!! -Lastly (and even though it has nothing to do with the video), a small fact about tequila: there is an alcoholic beverage known as "mezcal" which is made all around the country from the destilation of the agave plant. The thing is, "mezcal" and "tequila" are practically the same! (as in, they're made exactly the same way and from the same plant). The only difference is that the tequila is ONLY made in the city of Tequila, Jalisco, and that's why it's rather expensive. My personal recommendation: try a mix of tequila (or mezcal) and some grapefruit soda, the taste is godlike. That's it, if you find any error in what I've said or you just have a question about our culture, feel free to let me know. Love from Mexico!!!

I expect boat gang is gona have a field day in the Caribbean. Give em some screen time during that region tour RT. They've been in the background a lot but I don't think they've ever had a build proper featured in your build tours yet.

I love the meteor and Panama canal so much. Hands down one of my favourite build plots

Fun fact: The eagle eating a snake that is seen in the Mexican Flag comes from a Legend that the Aztecs followed. They were to build the greatest city in the world at the place they found an Eagle, eating a snake, while standing on a nopal(Or well, a cactus.) They eventually found this exact scene, at a lake of all places! Which eventually became Tenochtitlan, capital of the Aztecs. And many years down the line(And a few invasions from part of Spain) it became Mexico City.

Every since this series started this is what Ive been waiting to see, havent hit play but I am excited to see what they got in my home land of panama

As a mexican, felt very excited to see RT's server take on Mexico. Saw the OXXO store in the first few minutes and I knew things would go cursed, as it is the usual flavor of the server, and right!

The way he pronounced El Chavo and Chapulin Colorado is killing me. Literally, blood is not supposed to boil, send help.

I can finally experience Dan’s unique way of pronouncing things first hand

Yay my elote store is in the video! Sorry for the meaty flaps Dan, I was rewatching the Plate Up video before the build!

Wait you fell for the Dropbears? Lol I gotta rewatch the Australia episode.

It’s so funny to hear RT butcher “Jarrito” and “Elote”.

"He sleeps in a barrel" "Thats pretty cool, yeah" LOL

I miss oxxo. Visiting my grandparents they used to let me go over there since it was very close by to buy whatever I wanted. Unfortunately the only candy I really like is chocolate so I spent the money on kinder eggs which were then illegal in the US.

🇵🇦 VIVA PANAMÁ 🇵🇦 I'm so happy to see my country represented 🥰

Very excited to see this since I am from Central America myself!

I really like this series because half of the builds make me cackle like a hag and the other half helps me learn a new historical fact because RT's fanbase is so big and from all around the world that I get to have a peak into a culture that i would never expected to get a peak into. The duality is fantastic

Despite being Jamaican at birth, my ancestors are from all over. For example, my grandfather's are from Panama. So as part Panamanian I'm happy to see all of this! P.S: As Jamaican, I can't wait to see the Caribbean build next. We don't get enough rep, so this'll be good! Lol P.P.S: I hope there are enough Caribbean folk here lol.

Do notice the persona 5 background music. We have claimed him.

When the Caribbean becomes available I expect at least 5 ironmouse statues, it would also be cool if someone built the torre de Leon from far cry 6 but that’s pretty obscure

Nachos were Invented in 1943 by a man from Chihuahua who was working as a chef at a military base near the Texan border.

Patiently waiting for RT to go to Brazil

Reminder that most of Mexico is still north america, the lowest part of Mexico is part of central america with that huge part below Mexico being central and south america. Also for non Spanish speakers here are some quick Spanish lessons: Double L is pronounced as a y like "Talla" is pronounced as "Taya". The Ñ sound is made by doing the N but moving your tongue a bit to the back. When reading most things in spanish the U in most things with Q is silent such as Queso being pronounced "Keso" and Quiropráctico being pronounced "Kiropractico".

I'm a computer engineering major and I've been doing stuff with my computers my whole life. And sometimes I forget not everyone knows how binary works or how to go back and forth between any base to base 10 (decimal). Cool seeing people learning it from time to time though

11:30 - RT has nostalgia for "fleshy interior", not weird at all

Loving the background persona tracks. They go very well as just background music as stuff goes on.

Thats north America and center america. Its the same way of videogames not separating Ireland from the British

19:17 apparently dan is a female bird because everyone's definitely trying to attract him with red arrows

hey, costa rican here, isla nublar is in fact where jurassic park was filmed, but i have to say i got a bit confused since here in costa rica we call it "Isla del Coco" or Coco Island, and i didnt know it was also called isla nublar so that fact was even new to me!

I really hope when this is finished a world download is available

I take it RT hasn't played Omori, but I can't imagine a worse game to play on stream. Chat would spoil it *immediately* and ruin the whole experience

going back to these “older” videos and hearing rt actually curse instead of saying youtube is like reuniting with your friend from school after summer break

Watching this in the car as I’m driven to my finals, parrot inspires me to do my very best.

I was very excited to see this episode pop up on my feed cuz im obsessed with ancient ruins and pyramids and stuff

I love the sheer amount of birds! It really makes me curious what type of birds they are.

I'm disappointed that the clay-colored thrush wasn't actually built using clay.

I've always wanted to join one of these build streams! The new earth is coming along nicely, there's so much detail (and horror) packed into it. 10:49 There's my Mexican eagle having a snakey snack.

Someone should've made Clipperton Island off the southwestern edge and relayed the nightmare story that was that whole ordeal.

11:09 I get the feeling someone really wants RT to play Omori.

17:15 He truly doesn't discriminate in mis-pronunciation. I didn't expect him to butcher Spanish thought

I love how all these videos include actual cultural information from the places featured

I have not watched yet, but I will be disappointed if I don’t see Panama represented. 🇵🇦 Edit:glad to see thee flag 2:20 in!

I'm Mexican and i thought that Mexico would be memed with the yellow gradiant through the video but i realized how well done it was depicted Although some things were missing it was amazing!

7:22 They immediately go back and build the cigar again

I love these videos. its so comfy and just feels good to watch. There's no conflict or sad, just people creating and having fun
