Bro i think your mic is giving up. This and last video seems to have the gain pushed up way too high

[DanatronOne]

Can we hold a referendum on you getting a new mic?

[RealLifeLore]

Yes, at 23:33, I say that James VI of Scotland became John (when it should just be James still) I of England for some reason. I don't know why my brain said that when I recorded this. Please ignore

I'm from CAMEROON. We have a saying here which goes, "if someone explains the situation of cameroon to you and you understand it, it means the person didn't explain it properly" 😅

It's a real testament to the quality of the content that, despite murderously bad audio levels, it still has over 1.2m views.

Bosnia: we want to go to the beach
Croatia: No

You must invest in a new microphone. The content here is top notch but the audio quality is lacking. It's an easy fix and well worth your time and money. Keep kicking ass and living your passion.

I understand why Greenland is hesitant to become independent. They can travel anywhere and study anywhere in Europe under Denmark. Independence would be a mistake for the economy and the people living there

This channel is perfect to watch while eating

As a basque person i can tell you that independence is more impossible than ever. Although the main political parties here are basque nationalists, independence as an objective is hardly even mentioned. Basque people just want higher autonomy and care more about social issues like housing or healthcare

[littlejerryseinfeld]

wow i finally learned where timbuktu was

[foolzcat]

This mic quality is killing me, it's almost physically painful to listen. It sounds like something out of a 1980s soviet broadcast

[thedapperdolphin]

Much of the history with most independence movements are like this..

1. Minority group gets mistreated, so they want independence
2. Majority group cracks down and treats them even worse for wanting to be independent
3. Minority group wants independence even more because of that.

Maybe people wouldn’t want to leave if you didn’t treat them like crap

[pauldaplayfulpanda]

"as history continues evolving with time.." has to be the most ChatGPT sounding opening line to a script...

[warwolffr]

Well the part on New Caledonia is aging interestingly...

[alsiniz]

Whats with the audio this upload? Sounds like the mic levels are clipping or compressed to death.

Next RLL vid be like: Why these 12 countries might cease to exist soon

[Parallax]

By the way, what happened with your audio quality? It's sounds a bit blown out compared to your former work, and has been like this for a few videos now. Honestly it kinda sounds like youre talking over the phone and not into a proper microphone.

[thetylersherman]

Great video, as always. Sounds like your audio track is a little too hot on this one, it's sort of peaking / clipping throughout.
