New Zealand Girl Reacts to AUSTRALIA VS UNITED STATES | WHO WOULD WIN? - A Military Comparison 

And unlike a certain other ally, they don't pick fights with other people; generally speaking.

lmao you aint lyin

@Gabriel Torres lol

I was gunna say comedy😅😅😅

Funny, the US feels about the same way about the Ozzies. One of the few nations that supports us in nearly everything we do. They were with us in Korea, they were with us in Nam, they were with us in Afghanistan, they were with us in Iraq. Australia like Canada is among our firmest and friendliest allies.

Indeed. I could never back an attack on such an awesome people.

Why would we even think about an Invasion against our greatest ally: Beer

@@elharvey5032 This ex-GI will take a Beer with my Brothers in Arms.

This is about the short and skinny of it. America has no interest (let alone a reason) fighting such an awesome group of people. But if ya ever need us, we're there!

57,000 per capita ? as i live Homeless and jobless out of my car in america... I'll be lucky if I make 10,000 a year ...you're far better off in Australia dont believe anything you hear .. Only one person I know makes 60,000 a year and that's one of my sisters ,,out of all of my 60 different family members.. That's why there's so many rich people in the United States because there's alot of poor and middle class...

Yes we do. And New Zealand

this

Yeah, as much as everyone says they don't like the song here, if you wanna see americans get turnt up, blast Land Down Under by Men at Work.

how the fuck do you know

@@drobichaud1000 because australians use the word cunt a lot, and can give just as good as they get when it comes to a good roasting. And americans appreciate that.

Carriers were, by far, the most important asset in WWII.

We also have the largest air force and the the navy has the second largest lmao

@@trentonpinkston6282 We don't just have the largest military, but the most technologically advanced military with the biggest budget. But If America just had to rely on only our military, we could be defeated. If China teamed up with Russia and India... and every other military on the planet, they still couldn't invade the US, because they know that just our American Hunters (15 Million) outnumber all the armies of the world combine. Then consider that there are over 200+ Million American gun owners, with an average of 8 guns each. Now factor in our entire economy producing the latest and greatest weapons, ammo and explosives. No contest. “You cannot invade the mainland United States. There would be a rifle behind every blade of grass.” -Attributed to Admiral Yamamoto of the Japanese Navy during WWII

@@DJ8017 wait till merge with does Canadians Australians and new Zealanders were gonna take over the world

@@DJ8017 India wouldn't attack us mostly the most are the Communist are basically the only ones it's mostly china and Russia we have to fight

Actually, I think the mere thought of an armed US aircraft carrier headed their way would be more than enough to defeat all of Australia. Lol.

@@kelvinnkat good joke.

I love your joke👍

@@kelvinnkat Ok, that might be pushing it a bit.

@@kennandunn7533 Only a bit, that's the whole joke

I had Liberty in five different port cities in Oz when I was in the US Navy . Best Mates ever . I believe a US / Australia war would go over like the scene in the film Braveheart when the Scots faced the Irish .

I feel like this is pretty common. They are the badasses down south.

I went to New Zealand's North Island last year. Just kinda rented a car and drove around... It was amazing and I hope to do the South Island soon.

@@rickyism1576 Did you meet any Hobbits ? Samwise Gamgee is my favorite , and the true hero of the LOTR trilogy .

I would like to visit, but only if I can stay inside away from all the venomous animals. I say that as someone who used to have pet snakes, spiders, and other animals which are threatening by American standards. Nonetheless, I do love my Aussie and Kiwi cousins.

Not much of a fight there. Americans would be wasted before Aussies even warmed up. Lol

As a proud American, I must admit, that is one fight we would lose. Americans don't hold our liquor very well. Darn 21 drinking age. Oh, you are old enough to fight and die for your country, but not old enough to drink.

@@pete6099 nah Americans would put up a fight but Aussies would win still

Well, at the rate the commie Democrats are going, the U.S. will wave the "red" flag and be a territory of China. We will need Australia to invade the U.S. to save it.

Wouldn’t be fighting the Australians though would we in that scenario. We would be fighting something else which goes against the concept of the video. The video is just a comparison of military capability between the U.S.A and Australia. We will never fight Australia, because we have no reason to and these are some reasons why: 1.They are our allies. 2. They haven’t shown any kind of a expansionist ideology in the government or the general populace, that would suggest we need to protect our other allies in the region from possible invasion. 3. They are still a democracy and seem to be functioning just fine. So we don’t need to liberate the country from some kind authoritarian regime. 4. They don’t have some kind of special resource the US government would be willing to invade over and likely we would just come to a trade agreement for the resource instead of through conflict. 5. We don’t need the whole country to have a presence in the region. We have other allies and which allow us to house bases in their countries and therefore subsequently provide a fairly similar strategic advantage in the region. We have a fair positive relationship with Australia which means they have allowed us to have some bases in the country. Even if our relationship with Australia deteriorated and they asked us to leave or in slightly more extreme action, expelled us from the country. I doubt we would go to war. Likely this situation would be solved diplomatically, as great many European powers would be perplexed at Australia kicking us out. We provide the most funding to NATO and those nations would likely pressure Australia to allow the US back in because our importance to the alliance. I’m not saying Australia should be pressured in that situation, the crisis would likely be very complex and hopefully cooler heads would prevail. So couldn’t I comment on situation even if I wanted to cause it doesn’t exist. So I’m not saying any of these reasons will happen or any of the possible solutions I said would be taken. I’m just saying the likelihood of conflict is very low and this just a scenario video.

@@bp_jlfan2020 you used a lot of sentences, paragraphs even, to say nothing. Australia is a friend, they are seeing the cancer of the CCP in their own country, surely they can see it in ours, too.

As an American I am not sure I want to send our men and women to die fighting Emus. Might just have to cut ties with Australia and let the Emu's rule.

@Billy Hndrsn I agree, Australia is a friend and I definitely think they understand the threat that China purposes and that would likely be a point of agreement between the US and Australia, further solidifying the bond between the countries. I would say China likely threatens our allies in Asia more than us directly. If China did do an aggressive action or invaded, it would likely be on one of our allies. That would likely drag us into conflict with China. I would say war directly on the US and on our soil is pretty unlikely and we would probably be defending an Allie from a Chinese takeover if conflict did happen.

Hey um we still have the second ammendment lol

As much as America loves Australia I sure wouldnt wont to be the damned fool whom would invade Australia .....That would truly piss off my fellow americans .......And rest assured you could tell those fools hells coming with out mercy .LOL......That would definitely get our attention .

That was a close run thing in WW2. The US was at the tips of its fingers in the battles near Australia that prevented the Japanese from landing. It's far away and in a bad neighborhood being close to Japan previously, and China presently. (Importance changed, not locations. lol) That's why the Aussies know they need some decent capability, and have more interoperability with the US than any other nation, even the UK. They even generally opt to buy American equipment, as we spend the money to develop it, develop upgrades after our own hard use en masse, and generally make the best equipment in the world. Recently announced... Australia has basically given up on their Tiger Eurocopters as being ineffective, and announced they are buying Apache attack helicopters now.

@@kevinbolin7665 America would never invade australia they're great buds

@@HO-os8ry I'm noticing that. Seems the liberal voters are getting what they voted for, not dissimilar from here in America

The people yes, their government not so much

My neighborhood has a lot of armed veterans in it. Don't know about Australia, but we are equal to lots of threats.

Lol so true

My *state* can beat up Australia. Our state national guard is bigger than Australia's military.

American hunters outnumber the 5 largest armed forces in the world (China, US, Russia, North Korea and India), combined, by more than 2:1.

~ Behind every blade of grass is a DROPBEAR~ Nobody is dumb enough to try landing troops in a place where every creature that walks flys or swims CAN KILL A MAN. In contrast, America has ~20mil civilian AR-15 RMDs (rifle of mass destruction) , ~8mil of those are in Texas. Nobody wants to try invading that

*But if they found oil......*

@@katieanzueto478 Lol no, US doesn't steal oil from majority white nations...

@@quattrocity9620 the vast majority of our oil comes from within our borders. We import mainly from Canada and Mexico. Only a few percent from any other nation. The US is a net exporter of oil. 1000 years of easy to reach oil under the US. The oil war myth is propaganda

@@lawrenceshdow Well I'm not speaking on the intentions of the wars (that would be speculation), just the results. But to the point there would be many reasons to still exploit other countries for oil. It would still be cheaper to exploit existing crude oil deposits and infrastructure where labor (and land for that matter) is less than 10% of cost in US. Also, the power that comes from controlling a larger stake of any global industry (especially in other countries) is greater than being confined to domestic competition. We still import crude oil to refine in US (even though what we do now has little to do with our intentions 3 presidents ago.). The nature of capitalism would indicate any number of reasons for an oil war but I suspect it is more geopolitical and the greater boon to the US would be weakening OPEC. Anyway there is motive, but that alone doesn't necessarily mean the wars were over oil and I never said that's what they were about. Only that we have taken control of oil in other countries as a result.

@@quattrocity9620 thats a lot better reasoning than the first statements... 😆 you have a better understanding than I figured just based on the (the US only steals oil from brown nations) concept.

If they sent us drop bears?

Other than bar fights, yup…

I wouldn't say it's not fair to compare the two militaries but many people don't take that aspect into account.

I mean if you think about it the US is one of the few countries that really fought for Independence. Canada and AU were granted theirs nearly a century afterwards. It’s just a philosophy we’ve been brought up on ever since our early colonial days

@@Jprager We have not really needed our own military, always had the USA to back us if we really needed lol. However we are starting to spend alot more, including orbital weapons systems and orbital defenses apparently according to our latest budget

I think the point is more of "how does (____) stack up against the largest superpower ". Its a very worst case scenario.

@@malachi3749 now that some countries might be trying to counter AU policies investments in its military might start to sound like a good idea especially if you’ve got the likes of China on the other end

AU and US actually worked together during WW2. And during many of the Pacific wars Americans were actually based in AU

@@Jprager My grandfather used to tell me stories about the time he spent in Australia during WW2. He always loved it and wanted to revisit it one day, but he never got a chance to :(

Im sure the country feels better now that you have made that announcement, mr american

She's from New Zealand. Hold my beer.

They declared it and fought a war to prove their independence, Britain not recognizing it until 1783 does not mean we weren't independent

it was actually July 2nd

And America still doesn't have an official language. 😅

@@nightwingaven69 it came into to effect on July 4th

Aka.... America was Independent on July 4th, 1776... and it took Britain another 7 years to finally admit it.

Just an entertaining exercise

@@serpentisma wait really? I’m ashamed that I’ve never heard of this

@@jackthedragonkiller5097 Yup. In fact, here on RU-vid, there's a video edition of the podcast, "The Dollop", which is hosted by David Anthony and Gareth Reynolds. The podcast is setup as such: David Anthony reads a not-so-well-known history lesson to his friend, Gareth, who has no idea what the subject matter is until it's told to him. Look up The War On Squirrels | The Dollop #386, and they go into detail about it. It's a little lengthy, about an hour and a half. But it's very funny, entertaining, and pretty informational, and if you have the time, I promise it's well worth listening to if you're interested in learning more about it. Cheers, sir!

There's no reason to invade any country really. It would just be recognized as an illegal war and cause too much chaos.

@@luciusbrave9805 China would just walk in and murder us tbh. Although if war did break out, because of current treaty's we dont have much of a choice

@@luciusbrave9805 If you actually know our military and government, we are not a threat. China is not worrying about us at all, if anything they are instigating shit against us right now.

@@GyorBox That's what Canada's for ;)

Texas is better armed than Australia.

Australians are just British Texans.

Correct - I think it took until 1783 for the UK to officially recognize that independence..... After they tried to stop that from happening ;)

It could be argued that we did not truly gain independence from England until we won the War of 1812 in Feb. 1815. Until that time, England thought that they had the right to impress American sailors into the Royal Navy as if the Revolutionary War had not happened. After the Treaty of Ghent was signed, the British finally gave up on the idea that they still owned the American Colonies.

It could be argued that the U.S. won fuck all and the only reason that Britain left was because the war was so unpopular and expensive that the Brits lost interest. Basically it was the Vietnam of the 18th century, sure the major power could have won but it would be expensive in every way and it was easier and more popular to just say “fuck it” and leave.

@@codieomeallain6635 It could also be argued that war with Napoleon had serious and grave adverse effects on both GB's appetite and ability to wage war.

@@hayleagair3177 yeah, true, but that’s more the War of 1812 than the American Revolution which is mostly what I was talking about and comparing to Vietnam. As to the War of 1812 I definitely agree that the appetite for war (or lack thereof) among the British was a large factor, but I also see that as relating to the popularity or unpopularity of the War in a way.

its the first best though.....BOOM

It's like sibling rivalry, we all take the piss out of each other but when it comes to it we are all just one huge force. Love to US and Australia from UK ❤

Fantastic story.

It will be ...I heard USA ,Australia and Great Britain are joining its NAVYS to counter Chinas navy

@@TheOnlyOneStanding8079 Those countries have been close allies and training and operating together for decades.

@@bantumwt Yes but now we are going to share our technology secrets with them which will help them and us to protect our interests. Like the south China sea and to fight against the Chinese and Russian....WW3 baby say your last rights to your catholic priest

@@TheOnlyOneStanding8079 Much of our military technology has been shared with these allies at least since Vietnam where they all operated together.

Most countries in the world, a vast majority, could not survive without the USA and our funding/aid we send to every nation on the planet.

Couldn't have said it any better. They don't necessarily "need" to rely on us, militarily, as much as they do. They just choose to, and choose to relocate the funds that they should spend on military to their socialized governmental programs. But you've already pointed that out. And then we get criticized, by both foreign and domestic, for not having the same/similar socialized governmental programs that allied countries have.

That’s changing in the South Pacific as China has been increasingly aggressive. Australia, Japan, SK, Indonesia, Taiwan are all increasing military spending and two of those nation have top ten Navis with SK being one of the most advanced technologically.

@Spicyleaves my own kind? Humans? I doubt that is the stupidest things said by humans.

@Spicyleaves Government funded healthcare is apart of socialism no ones saying you cant be a capitalist and support it but its not a capitalist leaning policy. Many countries have economic programs like that the worlds filled with mixed economies not Pure capitalist or Pure socialist economies anymore except a few exceptions. Also its true that if Americas allies had to pay for their own defense your taxes would eathier go up 10% or your government healthcare is going down the gutter. Most countries budgets have healthcare at #1-#3 on their budget spending cost.

there is no premise, it's just an evaluation of each country's military

I was thinking the same thing. Though American interests span the globe I wasn't sure I would call either countries actions since WW2 being for "world dominance"

Yeah I caught that bull too

basically for show.

Average everyday Americans are not interested in world domination, nor is every American Donald Trump. We want to live free, and we want the rest of the world to be able to do the same. That's why our fleets ply the seas, why our planes fly the skies. For a person in real trouble, life threatening trouble, the best thing they may hear is United States Marines. Americans, we are far from perfect, but we do try to make the world better, and we have no interest in "domination ".
