“Drone strikes are at all-time highs. That’s why it’s important to hide your location and info online. That brings us to today’s sponsor, NordVPN”

5:08 Kim Jong-un in leather is a sight I need to unsee.

The media's the most powerful entity on earth. They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty innocent, and that's power. Because they control the minds of the masses.

missed Ecuador civil war vs gangs/cartel, Western Sahara (+Algeria) vs Morocco, Turkey vs Kurds, you mention Mali with terrorists, but not that it is civil war divided almost in half by the Tuaregs.
Still, a good video.

I wish this was a longer video going a bit more in depth in each war

You cannot determine who is most influential by asking people to vote. They will just pick their favourite candidate, like it was an election.

Point of correction

The southern rebels have joined the new transitional gov

Your map of “North Kivu” actually showed South Kivu

[bababababababa]

I know people likely won’t be bothered by this because most of you sadly aren’t bothered by us in Africa anyway, but at 4:38 you highlighted South Kivu in the DRC, not North Kivu

Hi. I think a clarification over the concept of "war" should be made. I don't think the drug's cartel problem in Mexico should be leveled with an actual war like the one in Ukrain, the first one being a homeland security problem.

The UAE supervises the recruitment of Janjaweed from Chad, Central Africa, Ethiopia and South Sudan and provides them with weapons.

Would love a detailed video on the current situation in Myanmar

[Exilis]

"EVERY" war explained in 10 minutes? I think not.

[TheJMBon]

Something you missed mentioning is that while Russia did make gains in Ukraine in 2024, they were minor territorial gains that came at the cost of 440, 000+ casualties.

[Valeryp]

Thanks for the extensive list; and to think some people believed that "war was over"...

[boringdallas]

War, from what I hear, it never changes.

2:10 Colombia’s president looks like he’s rolled a blunt for breakfast…

[ayyfte]

I fear the world will go even more chaotic.

In Syria it wasn't a civil war, it was a revolution
