The Australian Aboriginals had a pretty interesting passport and diplomacy dating back 10s of thousands of years. Two nations would each get a new born and perform ceremonies to link the two together, effectively making them brothers in law. When grown up, these two would act as diplomats between nations and were expected to learn each other's languages and cultures etc to be good at their job. They also had passports which were pieces of wood with carvings on them to allow strangers to travel through their nation without being seen as hostile.

@@hestikakala3027 They also built all the cities, all forms of money, all the infrastructure. I mean sure, if you want the white European descendants who were born on the same land as the indigenous and all the Asian, African and American settlers to leave the continent, sure, we'll do that, and we'll take all the stuff we put here too so you can go back to the dark ages. I'm not happy at what the English did to the Indigenous population, but without them, you wouldn't have a country, or democracy, or any form of economy or resources that were dug out of the ground so, pick your poison

I inherited two other red booklet type U.S. passports, one issued by the Territory of the Philippines and another from the mainland. Both were taken up (cancelled) in Los Angeles I945. My own passport expired in 2000.

If you weren't a high-ranking person, though, you could often just sneak into another country, and either claim you'd been there all along, or be protected by the high-ranking person who invited or recruited you to come. This was probably becoming harder by the time period covered in the video, and probably by the 18th century, it was nearly impossible. States try to stop people from leaving, because if too many people get fed up and leave, you become the king/president/high priest/god-emperor of absolutely nothing.

@rachelcookie321 2 года назад

That’s because countries have agreements with other countries to allow travel visa free but you can only stay in those countries for a limited time and usually can’t get a job. If you want to visit another country or you want to get a job then you need a visa. I have permanganate residency in New Zealand so that means I have a visa for New Zealand that will never expire.
