@@jd-uz1ln can you buy it in a shop. Are where can you buy it in portugal? Because If there is not a place you can legaly buy you can say it is legal but still buying it. Must be illegal. otherwise you should pay taxes over stuff. Thats how it is in the Netherlands. It's legal to sell in most Dutch "coffee shops" only the coffeeshop have to buy also from a supplier, this is illegal. And buying it from the shop is illegal also. Only its tolerated if it is not more than 5 gram. the advantage is that there is no 21% tax and it is quite affordable. although the construction is super weird but it works, and that's what matters.
Every german out here mentioning that the Alabama in the map is actually Saarland, or that Saarland is our version of Alabama, but nobody is mentioning the joke of Mallorca being named as germany's 17th federal state/Bundesland, because we really love going there for summer vacation.
Man merkt, dass ein Deutscher dieses Meme gemacht hat, weil solche Deutschen Insider hineingeflossen sind. (und weil er DDR statt GDR geschrieben hat.)
what was called Alabama in the map divided by states, is called "Saarland". It is known for people having sexy times with their family, which is why it's called Alabama
I wonder if the stereotype of germans as Bavarians in the states is related to the fact the USA's occupation zone in germany mostly coincided with the state of Bavaria
@@sirlenzelot495 I disagree, if it wasn’t for the upper mentioned reason no one would care about the Oktober fest, like we in NRW don’t care about it even though we are German
@@temistogen Wow, unbelievable. And what did you do? You "peacefully" tried to take our land, killing so many innocent people along the way and you still deny all of that.
Here’s something that will make you more sad. The only reason we know a lot of languages that are considered “extinct languages” is because we’ve documented them. There could be way more out there that went extinct that we don’t know about.
2:58 Actually, in Russian smith is translated as Кузнец (Kuznets), so I think that it could be more true to say that Smith on Russian is Kuznetsov, which is also a very familiar surname, i'd even say it is more wide-spread. For the sake of truth, it is neccessary to say, that Kovalyov comes from the word ковать (to forge).
12:39 When you have never seen a 7-11 in real life: *Ah yes, there are nearly double the amount of 7-11s to McDonalds. I definetly would have known that*
It's because it's ultra popular in Asia. Japan alone has something like 20k stores, S. Korea and Thailand around 10k each, and Taiwan with 5.5k. The US has nearly around 9k, Canada 600 and the UK has 0.
Did Drew realize that pun he made, "why is Spain so high compared to the others?" I laughed out loud. If he did yet kept a straight face like that, wow!
Drew: I don’t know anything about basketball but this is interesting Me: so now do you know anything about basketball. Drew: well yes but technically no.
The story was that each of those places was where the archangel appeared, so in each place they built a monastery, and its apparently a straight line from Ireland to Jerusalem when you connect the monasteries
"Look at the difference between Spain and Portugal. How can neighbours have such a difference" *Me, a Portuguese:* Neighbours?! No, no, no. We're deadly enemies, that's what we are.
@Alex Pokrandt Yes we get along pretty well but each country is proud of its own heritage. The thing about both joining the EU at the same time was because the biggest trading partner of Portugal was Spain so it would not make much sense for them not to join together since they both met the requirements.
Interesting, here in brazil it's a very common dessert but i never realized it had a connection to germany. Here we call it "sonho" or literally "dream" Also, if they are made very big, they are jokingly referred to as "pesadelo" or "nightmare".
Here in Germany it's a big traditional thing to eat those around carnival season, mostly also gettin one filled with mustard as a prank (that's pretty disgusting tho)
fun fact: walmart isn't worldwide bc it doesn't adhere to EU labor laws, so while they have attempted to open locations in germany, they had to shut very quickly due to labor law violations.
It's a running joke among planetary scientists that "you can always go to Mercury and Venus." If you have to choose between a Jupiter and Venus mission, you generally choose the Jupiter one, because if you don't launch it now, you might have to wait a decade or so for your next chance. Counterintuitively, because the inner planets are easier to get to, we send fewer missions to them.
Drew: How can you neighbor that country and it just be such a difference? Me, a Colombian, neighboring Venezuela: *Looks both ways* “Uhm... yeah, about that...”
In Austria the surname written "Schmidt" doesn't really exist, except for Germans who settled to Austria. The Austrian variant is either "Schmied" if it was adjusted to the modern German orthography or more likely "Schmid", as this was the spelling used prior to the rise of modern German. In the older Upper German written language the "long i" was spelled /i/and not with /ie/. /ie/ meant the diphthong, which is nowadays often spelled /ia/.
About "Alabama". This is the "Saarland". In Germany, it's a joke that in Saarland, everyones parents are siblings, so it lovely gets referred to as German Alabama, with people often times chanting "Sweet Home Saarland", too.
Drew, East Asia LIVES on 7-Eleven. In Japan, Taiwan, South Korea ect. there is a 7-Eleven like every 10 blocks and you do everything there. Grab snacks, eat meals, buy clothes, sit and talk ect.
3:08 fun fact about Basque: "arotz(a)" also means "carpenter" apart from "smith". I have seen it more used to refer to carpenters, as we have many other words to refer to smiths: errementari (literally "toolmaker"), burdingile/burdinlari ("burdin" means iron in Basque). Actually, I don't think we have a surname literally being "Arotza", but we do have "Arozena", which comes from Arotz-enea (literally "the house of the smith/carpenter").
The reason why they didn’t score a lot back then is because they had no shot clock, but because the ticket sales were to low, they added the shot clock to spice the game up.
0:37: That isn't Italy's colonial possession, it is a timeline of Italy's occupation of Ethiopia in WWII, which wasn't a colony. Otherwise, France and Poland would've been German colonies at the same time.
@@poke-champ4256 a berlineer a German donut filled with jelly is the explanation of the food translated if he said ich bein berlineer it would be correct because that means I am a Berlin citizen basically the ein makes the sentence change situation
1.20: That’s what the name for that donut is in different regions. Fun fact: Kennedy‘s famous line „Ich bin ein Berliner“ can be translated as „I am a donut“ in some regions of Germany - albeit not in Berlin and it’s perfectly clear from the context. He made a hero, not a fool of himself. Fun fact 2: It wouldn’t have helped to call himself American, since there’s another type of donut called „Amerikaner“

People have biased social milieus, same reason why Trump voters think he won: "I don't know anyone who voted for Biden." People group up in like-minded crowds, and it seems your group is the stoner crowd^^
The drug statistic of Portugal and its vast difference to Spain's is explained very simple: Instead of prosecuting drug users they educated them. They legalized several drugs in Portugal some 20 years ago after having a *major* drug epidemic. "Half" the country was high all the time, police spending skyrocketed, prisons were full but nothing changed. Then they relocated a portion of the money into education and prevention with facts and not scary storys. End of the day: Goverment spending decreased, Police can search for real criminals, Courts can sentence real crininal to prison, thousands of people don't get criminalised for a personal choice, black market has a hard ground, people can live in peace. Funny enough, when people are allowed to and educated (properly without fear) about they tend to use less drugs and they tend to have way more control over their consume choices. Almost like pushing someone into criminal circles for some weed is a bad idea.
To clarify about "Smith" in Scandinavia. Yes, it translates to "smed", but hardly anyone has that for a last name. We don't really use professions as names. We use patronyms, like Andersen, or place names like Teigen (tay-ghen). "Peter Smed" sounds just as silly as "Amy web developer" to us.
5:20 we’ll see drew, as a West Virginian who’s owned about 11 cats in my lifetime, I can say that the reason why we have so many cats is because if you have one person here, you have at least four or five family members here. And at least one of them is gonna have a cat. And most of the time, people here don’t get their cat neutered. And they let them out in the open. Then when their cats come home with babies they just give them to family, then the cycle can continue with friends or other family
