So here are 10 solid minutes of geography facts most people get wrong. In this video we’re looking at more interesting misconceptions people often make when it comes to geography.
Arizona is often believed to be the final state in the contiguous United States to obtain official statehood. While technically this is true, it actually isn’t officially true. Ye that sounds confusing. While Arizona became a state in 1912 just after New Mexico, there is one other state who was later admitted to be an official state; Ohio. Ohio was originally accepted as state in 1803. They however forgot to ratify the state constitution. It wasn't until 150 years later, in 1953, that an Ohio Congressman attempted to fix this blunder by making his state "officially" recognized. And, despite Congress backdated the state constitution to retain Ohio's date of statehood at 1803, its approval in 1953 would place it after Arizona.

Fun fact: you could technically travel in time. In the winters the waters between big and little diomede islands freezes and you can walk between them in a 1hour and you would be jumping a whole day in if you would go from the little diomede to the big diomede, and you would go back in time if you went from little diomede to big diomede

Indonesia is a transcontinental country too technically. New Guinea is actually an island part of the continent of Australia and half of the island belongs to Indonesia. Arguments could also be made for Panama and France with the Panama Canal being the north/South American divide and France with French Guiana

Panama is also on two continets so there is 7 but if you include overseas territories there is also denmark, uk, france, netherlands, spain, usa and chile meaning 13 and if you include antartica clams you add australia, new zealand, norway and argentina meaning 18 And if you include portuguese and italian island near africa than its 20 and a couple of columbian islands in north america so 21 Also some people say that a couple of japanese islands are in australia/oceania so 22

if you include territories then also colombia and chile. colombia has some islands in north america near nicaragua and chile has easter island in oceania

Dubai and other nations around it are NOT in the "middle east" they are in the NEAR EAST. Ya think a video about geography would know its correct geography!

@sgrant9814 Місяць тому
Use your brain If those nations are in the middle east, then where is the near east? In order to have a "middle" you need a "near" and a "far". The far east is indochina, japan, china, etc. the MIDDLE EAST is central asia, iran, afghanistan india, etc. the NEAR EAST encompasses the arabian peninsula and the nations formerly known as being in the levant: palestine, lebanon, syria, iraq, etc (egypt also straddles this designation as it is on two continents) you seem to use the same faulty logic as mcdonalds which offers medium and large drinks only. However if you have only two sizes then one is large and the other small,,no medium exists. @MusicInMyEarsVEVO
