Alright like this comment if you think I should go and make a claim to Bir Tawil. And leave a comment if you'd like to challenge me with your own claim, I dare you!

"Maybe after Jeff Bezos conquers space, he'll come after Bir Tawil and turn it into his personal little kingdom."

Don't give him any ideas.

"...about 1% of Earth's land area remains unclaimed by any country..."

I love the way he connects the topic to the advertisement smoothly in all his videos even if it is a cookware.

While I know that turning even a small portion of the Sahara into a solarpower farm would have a great impact on global weather patterns, I can't help but think about making Bir Tawil into a solar panel nation

Short Answer: It's a small patch of inhospitable desert and there's no oil.

I can't wait for MrBeast to claim Bir Tawil and make it his own country.

It took me two of your videos to sign up for nebula and curiosity love your work !

Another awesome video by RealLifeLore. Fascinating!

It would be hilarious if large quantities of something like gold were suddenly discovered in Bir Tawil.

Nice content as always, thx.

I have a question tho, how are you making these nice shots from the maps? I would really like to get an explanation for that. And I don't mean a sort of tutorial how to do it, but more an explanition of your workflow for doing these clips. Like, do you have a special programm for that, where do you get the maps from (like the .png file or whatever) how do you get this data to be in Video format...

Thank you in advance.

I love how Luxemobourg is your default unit of measurement in basically all of your videos haha

reallifelore: "why nobody wants this land-"

british: "hold my gin and tonic, did someone say conquerable land??"

You have the funniest connection from video to the sponsor of the video I've ever seen

"An American dad from Virginia" sounds about right for Stan lol.

edit: I meant a thick Texan accent, my mistake

Fascinating video! On an unrelated note: where was the picture shown in 0:33 taken? It looks really cool but it cannot be Antarctica because of the trees.

So seamlessly worked in that relevant ad I didn't even notice the video had ended and the ad had started.
