I responded to a few comments about this earlier, but the comments keep coming so let me pin an official response. I absolutely agree we should stick with the metric system in all TLDR Global videos. The only reason we made the mistake this time is because the UK uses such a confusing mixture of metric & imperial and I just didn't notice. However, I've messaged the TLDR Global team and everyone's aware that we will be exclusively be using the metric system - Jack

Since when did metric measurement become the measurement of the world? The US dollar is seen as the currency of the world and they use imperial as does the UK (well, we use both quite well but will that change post-Brexit?! 😂).

So we basically have 3 categories of claims: 1. Claims without an official flag 2. Claims with an official flag 3. Claims with an official flag that features a penguin 🐧

"Swatsika" could hardly be reason to demonetise any YT video. "Swastik" or as called in west "Swastika" is highly auspicious symbol used for signifying good luck and warding off evil curses as per Hinduism, Jainism, Buddhism and other Eastern Culture. It is a common misconception that Hitler used the Swastika symbol. But Hitler himself never used the word "Swastika" to refer to his symbol. He called it “Hooked Cross”(“Haken Kreuz”). Hitler first saw the Hooked Cross symbol in a Christian monastery (Lambach Abbey) which he attended as a boy. He later adopted it as an emblem for his party. There is no evidence that he ever heard of the word “Swastika”. Hooked Cross had been a sacred symbol of Christianity since its inception in ancient days and it is very natural to find Hooked Cross symbol in old churches and chapels.

Also the chilean and argentinian claims are way more complex than that, I feel like the time should had been better distributed between the claims (this is supposed to be TLDR Global, not TLDR UK), you didn't mention anything about their own governnng bodies for the territory nor the fundations of their claims as heirs of the spanish empire (who did claim all the lands south to the strait of Magellan).

As an Argentinian, I have to add that we also have our Antarctic claim as a incorporated territory. It's literally a department of one of our provinces and it even sends representatives to its local house.

And how much of it involved penguins.

The legal justification for the Argentine and Chilean claims goes all the way back to the Tordesillas Treaty of 1494. The treaty drew a line that divided undiscovered lands between Spain and Portugal. Basically, both countries say that the land west of that meridian belonged to Spain and was inherited by them when they gained their independence. Which country inherited which section of Antarctica (if any at all) is an unresolved issue, of course, so their claims overlap.

Isn't it that there are at least 3/4 people who are "discoverers" of Antarctica? The first to see it, the first to step on it, the first to explore deeply, and the first to claim it.

Argentinean claim including the Malvinas/ Falklands, also has its own flag and legislation, its considered a province not a territory, province of Tierra del Fuego, Antartida e islas del Atlantico Sur, and southern Argentina it is less than 600 miles of Antartica, not 3200. The chilean claim its also considered a region of the country, the XII Region de Magallanes y Antartica Chilena. Basically, the British claim it set over part of two countries, argentine claim its over chilean territory, and chilean claim over argentine territory, its really complex

2:00 They thought there was a Terra Australis, but they didn't think it was south of Australia because they didn't know about Australia yet

Ah man, for some reason I thought you might go into the Piri Reis map that was made in the 1500s (based on an earlier map) that not only shows that Antarctica was already discovered by a previous civilisation but that it was Ice free (likely pre 4000 BC)

This reminds me of when my mother brought me and all my siblings a PlayStation to share

Boaty McBoatface is epic

Considering the disrespect to the native inhabitants (penguins) I would say that everybody loses their claims if they don't have them in the coin or flag. They Brits can have it all.
