Unclaimed Lands You Can Start Your Own Country In
Learn languages the fun way with Lingopie! 7-day free trial + 55% OFF yearly plan: https://learn.lingopie.com/generalknowledge
In this video I explore several unclaimed territories around the world where it could theoretically be possible to start your own country. These areas, known as "Terra Nullius" or "nobody's land," include places like Bir Tawil, a strip of land between Egypt and Sudan; Marie Byrd Land in Antarctica; and pockets of land along the Danube River between Croatia and Serbia. As well as an ice field in Southern Patagonia. Throughout the video I discuss the unique circumstances that have left these regions unclaimed, such as border disputes and international treaties, and consider the challenges one might face in establishing a new nation in these areas.
