Azerbaijan, although the Afsharid Dynasty is mistaken you be Persian, it was of Azerbaijani ethnicity

Definitely China. Or how about a part 3 of countries that were small, big, then small again like the UK

i propose Romania, because it is bigger now than it was when it got independence from the Ottoman Empire

Lol

Ironically the British were reluctant to expand west and more humanitarian in regards to the Indians. It wasn't till the USA emerged that they really wanted to keep pushing west into the continent.

Just like his father

@Afrodisiac You saying "BS" is irrelevant as we're talking about actual history. Comparing Australia & NZ to North America is stupid as different people and factors were involved. The British actually had to declare a treaty with the maori in NZ. They didn't with the aborigines in Australia.

Lichtenstein is so tiny

Igor Foxly - Germany begs to differ with that assessment.

Lichtenstein actually used to be WAY bigger, and until....2009 iirc, they were still demanding the return of lands from Austria. In the end, Austria got more support, and had the EU on side, so the Lichtensteiner side settled. Austria kept the lands, BUT return half a dozen Royal Palaces to the Crown of Lichtenstein, they are today essentially micro enclaves of the country wholly within Austria.

bruh, don't get angry smh

It wasn't simply handed over. The residents of Newfoundland voted to join Canada, post-war Britain was happy to let them go and Canada was happy to have them. Technically it was a vote between three options (stay a colony, join Canada, independence as a dominion again). Independence got a plurality on the first vote but in the run off between the top two choices, joining Canada won a slim majority - 52.3%.

@RetroGamer not really. Sad fact is that America kill so many native Americans and took they're land. It's conquest, it was never free real estate, they kill people and took the land.

Canada just inherited stuff from Britain

@Scorpio ???? I can't tell if you are joking but the people who founded America is British people. U.S was a colony of British so they help killed native Americans. The blood is on both hands.

@Scorpio America also killed a lot of natives.

@Scorpio also Everyone in the war against u.s and British was all Born in great Britain ( besides the people Spain move to America to help). France also help but not as much.

You only think Newfoundland is part of Canada because that's what the government wants you to think.

Good idea!

Imo all of the micro states have a pretty boring past apart from San Marino, that places backstory is very interesting

They are a relic of a time when the Europe was riddled with small fiefdoms, ducats, principates and such. A good example is Spain: It was several nations before its unification, and still today you can see the difference in the language of Castillian ( the language of Lion and Castille, which is now known as spanish) and Catalan (The language of Catalonia), Another good example is Italy, with it's several italian languages all hailing back from the times of their Maritime Republics

The kingdom was actually only called Sardinia. People call it Sardinia-Piedmont since Piedmont was the main factor for the unification

@@chip1646 Yes, i know. I said Sardinia-Piedmont beacuase the majority of people know that state with this name

I know it as Piedmont-Sardina

@@idek6585 The official name was "Regno di Sardegna", but the capital city was Turin, in Piedmont, and Piedmont was the main part of that kingdom

@Рамис Карама No. Garibaldi was very important for the annexation of Two Sicilies. But Kingdom of Sardinia fought the austrians in 1848-49 and in 1859, they sent troops to the Crimean War to eneter the game of great powers and to look for an alliance with France, UK or Prussia. They organized the referendums in Tuscany, Parma, Lucca and Modena and they invaded the Papal State in 1860. The prime minister of Sardinia, Camillo Benso, count of Cavour; was the head of unification, not Garibaldi. I repeat, Garibaldi was a very importnat figure, in Italy we love him, but also the Kingdom of Sardinia had a main role

A lot of African nations are very large in comparison to Europe, but South Africa does indeed have quite the interesting past compared to most others

Not really. Algeria and Congo (DR) are twice as large. Sudan, Libya, Chad, Niger, and Mali are all larger as well. Europe is just tiny. Even the Canadian territory of Nunavut, which has less than 40,000 people, is twice the size of South Africa.

@Blob Asia has more people, money, resources, and land. North America has more money, resource, and land. Tough argument for Europe.

@Blob Ehh not bad for such a tiny continent. However, North America's GDP per capita is $49,240. Europes is much much lower at $29,410. And that's despite the fact that North America has poor countries like Guatemala, Honduras, Belize, Nicaragua, etc.

The state of the church and after the Vatican are the heirs of the Roman empire

Not even close

@Arthur __ Latin was already bastardized whilst the Roman Empire stood, Vulgar Latin was already a thing and differed in many regions.

Wrong, Italy is pretty much safe and sound

@Arthur __ We can pretty much do that with English. English is being taught in many countries as second language. IIRC it's part of school curricullum (i.e. you must have at least a basic proficiency of English to graduate) in China, Japan, The Netherlands, India, Indonesia, and the Phillipines. Probably in many other countries as well, tho I'm not sure countries like France, Russia, or Italy, which seems to be very proud of their own language, would teach English to their youngsters.

The beginning was slow. This was basically a tiny fortress in the middle of nowhere which was given to the 3rd or 4th son of the grand Duke of Kiev. Since Kiev went into decline due to the Mongol invasion and trade issues with byzantine the city states were much more independent. Moscows main trick was to get the orthodox metropoliit to reside permanently in Moscow. It increased the income and political Influence. It's influence bacame even bigger when byzantine fell and Moscow became the last holder of orthodoxy. Also Moscow had mostly pretty nice relationships with golden horde. The horde gave out the right to certain dukes to collect tax for them so the moscovites were often in the more favorable position . The rulers of Moscow were simply very smart guys.

Which states are Turkic?

Yeah Russia emerged from the ashes of the Golden Horde.

the kievan rus has almost nothing to do with russia the kievan rus is much more related to both belarus and the ukraine but after some wars with the polish commonwealth and mongolia they were wiped off the map then after the fall of the mongols a bunch of new kingdoms come from it and one of them named moskovia formed russia after uniting most of the former mongol lands

@@darth3911 "Nothing to do with Russia",what??? Russia come from principalities that were part of Kievan Rus and everything,from Russian language to culture originate there. Ofc Ukrainians and Belarusians are descendents of it,but not "more" than Russians. Russian ethnicity was completely formed in its own country with language and traditions of Kievan Rus while Ukrainians and Belarusians were formed without their states with big Polish influence and they were seen as ethnic group of Russians for a long time (I don't support that) ,even by many Ukrainians and Belarusians themselves

@@meneither3834 Russia has never been part of Golden Horde,Russian principalities were vassals and "Horde power" most of the time was just paying tribute once a year. Why are you talking about history of country you know nothing about

@@justaslav5179 what I mean is that Russia was created through filling the power vaccum left by the collapse of the Golden Horde. Not that Russians were mongols... And you can leave your demeaning remarks to yourself. Also the Kievan Rus and the Russian aren't the exact same thing.
