@6:55 no, actually, at the point in time that he's talking about (around the genesis of life, something like 3.5-4 billion years ago) nearly all land would have been from volcanic hotspots. The earth hadn't cooled enough for tectonic activity to start moving huge plates; the crust was fractured into tons of tiny plates and the vast majority of the surface was ocean. There are only two remaining chunks of earth left on the surface that are from this time period, one in western Australia and one in southern Africa. It took nearly a billion years from this point for the earth's core to cool enough that large-scale plate tectonics could start happening. The Himalayas are one of the youngest mountain ranges on Earth, only about 100 million years old. (That's why they're so big, they haven't had time to erode down yet.) The Himalayas began forming right around the same time that birds began to evolve from dinosaurs, if that gives you better context.

Actually you're wrong about the soviets not relaxing and that not leading to the collapse. What happened was Gorbachev got into power and introduced new policies (Glasnost and perestroika) which relaxed first soviet economic control and then media control. This didn't fix the economy immediately but it did let people start talking openly about how fucked the economy was and also removed pressure from half a dozen nationalist independence movements in the non russian parts of the USSR. This led to a Coup attempt by soviet hardliners which was put down by Boris Yeltsin who then took the opportunity to dissolve the Union alongside leaders of the other SSRs and take over the now independent Russia. Basically it probably would have collapsed but the actual circumstances were ABSOLUTELY the result of the relaxation of the old soviet policies of control and oppression, they'd been barely holding a lid on things since the 70's but when the lid came off everything boiled over very fast.

The situation in Panama is even worse than you were saying, the biggest problem recently is water. Most of the canal is above sea level, and it depends on water from nearby lakes to operate the locks, but the canal has been using more water than the lakes have been getting, so there's a real danger of the canal becoming useless because they don't have enough water, it's already effecting traffic limits through the canal today. Also, that water is, you know, drinkable. So it could also be useful for keeping people alive and producing food, but because the canal needs it so much and the levels are low, it can't really be used for other purposes (at the moment).

If you wonder why it said "Intermission" at one point when it was about Japan, that is because Bill Wurtz had previously made a 9 minute history of Japan video.

50:30 the Short version. Poland was allowed very minor changes, so Hungary (or Czechoslovakia I forgot but it was one of them) wanted similar changes but the protests made more demands so the Soviets shut it down with an army. The US and British were too busy bullying Egypt for the canal to do anything about it.

50:00 Yes the Soviet Union collapsed because it relaxed. Gorbatschov was an idealist and went. "Hey people, maybe we should actually try to live up to the ideas of communism. So from now on we will be accepting criticism and stop lying on national television." Glasnost and Perestroika. So several of the more central European and balkan nations went. "Our criticism is that this sucks and we want to be our own countries." And the last time they tried the Soviet Union sent tanks, this time they really didn't as much. So suddenly the Soviet Union was collapsing. Though, while it was willingly in the Balkans, Central Europe and the Baltic countries, in Russia proper and Kasaksthan it actually happened against the direkt wishes of the population, as the Soviet Union still retained a small but definite lead. Also, when the Soviet Union fell there asn't a "decent" government in Russia. Life expectancy took a nosedive. Western Advisors essentially created the current Oligarch class, because they were the opinion that selling of state-owned businesses slowly that the Russian people would have a chance to adapt and actually have smaller businesses that could drive forward a democratic processes by giving the people more power was dumb, and would give the people the chance to actually make their voices heard, so instead "Shock Therapy" needed to be implemented. I.E Everything sold of directly to whoever could pay the western advisors the highest bribes.

Kind of like two opposing forces constantly pushing against each other without giving way either way.

I feel a little disappointed that they told so many parts of the history of the whole world and in Mexico they only talked about the Olmecs, Teotihuacan and the Mayans. Why not talk about that the only reason you see this video with colors is because a Mexican guy said, "hey why not tv with colors instead of a boring and blurry monochromatic screen?"

I read a critique of Adolf Hitler's art that put it this way: "Saying that he'd make an ok artist if he got admitted into an art school is like saying someone would've been a great rock musician if they were admitted a conservatory". Great art wasn't being made in mainstream schools anymore: quite the opposite. He was like 50 years behind of what was actually interesting to people, and even stuff he was not awful at had been surpassed 500 years previously (the article compares his dry postcard views to Albrecht Durer's living breathing spaces).

I saw a video a while back talking about the deep sea vents, exploring one of the theories as to how exactly the first building blocks of life could have formed within them from inorganic components. I'm no experts but it sounded like a reasonable theory to me, I remember almost no specifics from it, but iirc (someone correct me please if I'm wrong) it had a lot to do with gradients of material and temperature in the walls of the stacks themselves, as well as fluctuations of the exact minerals flowing through the stack, creating an environment where specific interactions could occur. Could be just one more incorrect hypothesis about something we may never know the exact answer to, but I thought it was a pretty cool explanation of how it may have happened.

10:00 Actually glaciation episodes, especially global ones like snowball earth events are relatively easy to identify. One of the easy tell-tale signs are dropstones. Big rocks dropped into areas of ocean floor far away from any slope of continental shelf that could have delivered them there. How did they get there? - They get dropped on ice (e.g. icebergs) and get carried away as the ice cover on top of the ocean moves. Then you have plenty of other sedimentary features that tell you about glaciation, some of them made they the glaciers themselves (moraines for example - the debris (till) deposited by the solid state flowing of the glacier) or striations (basically scratches from debris within the glacier's ice as it gets dragged over other stones by the glacier's flow), others from the effects they have on the rest of the environmental effects, like glacial lakes (water dammed by glaciers and mostly sustained by them) and the flooding events then glacial barriers to them break. For snowball earth events there are also other effects caused by the ice covers on all (or most) of the ocean surface: gas exchange between the and the air is limited (so for example as counter to the albedo of the white surface on an ice covered earth radiating back more sunlight incoming you have an accumulation of volcanic CO2 over a longer time in the atmosphere [less possible contact with oceans it could acidify) and less light gets through to the water (so less photosynthesis can happen, which changed the ratio of heavy and light carbon isotopes deposited).

Another small correction. The Hellenistic Greeks were not closer to the Moon Landing than they were to the Mycenaeans. Nor was Classical Greece, which I think is what you're actually referring to here. The Mycenaean period spans from 1750 to 1050 BCE, followed by the Greek Dark Ages (1050-800 BCE), then Archaic Greece (800-480 BCE), then the Classical period which is generally dated up to Alexander the Great's death in 323 BC. If you're measuring from the start of the Mycenaeans to the end of the Classical period, that'd be just shy of 1430 years, but you'd normally measure this from the end of the Mycenaeans to the start of the Classical Period, which would be 570 years. For the length to the start of the Hellenistic Period (323-146 BCE) it'd be 727 years. The Hellenistic Period's end and the Moon Landing would be 2107 years, which is significantly longer, and the earlier periods are only even further back. I *think* you're thinking of Cleopatra being closer to the Moon Landing than she was to the construction of the Pyramids of Giza, which is true.

One note, Mycenaean Greece survived up to around 1250 or so BC, and while written records and the palatial complexes ceased, there's a strong chance the more rural areas(at least, the ones that survived/weren't pillaged to death) had a more gradual transition through the greek dark ages. Regardless, even if you take the most conservative estimates and went just by the palatial records, Hellenistic Greece is certainly *much* closer to the Mycenaean era than it is to ours.

22:25 Some portions of Europe north of the mediterran region where pretty well connected. A lot of the people down South (especially Myceneans and Egyptions) where obsessed with amber and the greatest sources of amber where on the coast of the Baltic Sea. So there were trade routes trough what is now Austria, Germany, Poland, the Czech Republic etc. [depending on the exact branch of the route]. We know because not only of Baltic amber that was found in the Bronze Age mediterran region but also from Mycenean artifacts (often bronze) found north of the Alps. And those trade routes did get used again after the Bronze Age Collapse [now often involving the Early Celts of the Hallstatt Culture] and persisted into Roman times. A term coined for that in the late 18h century is the Amber Road (analogous to the Silk Road).

I love how he got so excited over this 😭

One of my favorite things to do from time to time is watch people’s reactions. Yours I think had a lot of breaks from you nerding out. Very unique. Most people are just trying to absorb the info as it comes. I personally believe that “history of the entire world, I guess” is the best yt video of all time.

The Panama Canal has already been widened between 2007 and 2016.

The amount of nerdiness and points about so many things coming out of Airier at every turn is just so overwhelming, I LOVE IT!

Water can also be trapped in rocks. There’s enough inside these rocks to make another worldwide ocean. So you are right about asteroids and stuff. Just adding that it doesn’t have to be liquid water.

On the topic of darkmatter i think what you are thinking about is gravitational lensing, when the gravity is so extreme it 'bends' the rays of light. Also when you are talming about early stars, would you be refering to dark stars? the names a bit of a misnomer but essentially they are 'normal' stars with an incredile amount of dark matter thats actually fueling the entire thing. There is no way i can do the explaination justice but i reccommend checking out Startalk's recent video where Neil Degrasse Tyson interviewed the theoretical physicist that created the idea.

50:00 Yeah, nah, it was just the heads if Soviet Republics deciding that they wanted to be leaders of their own countries instead of having the Union Government boss them around. And pretty much none of the former Soviet Republics had a decent government after the collapse. It was just lots of civil unrest, impotent governments and even more corruption all over the former union. BTW, Poland wasn't part of the USSR, it was merely a part of its zone of influence.

there were many multiple continent formations. Pangea was just the latest which split into the current continents
