Today, we-re going to take a closer look at borders and the stories they tell. When we look at a map, the shapes we-re seeing can seem so permanent, but a map is just a snapshot of the Earth at a particular time, and by looking a countries shape (and how it has changed across time) we can learn so much about how power moves and the ebb and flow of conflict. We-ll talk about the different types of borders, and power dynamics at play in Armenia and Azerbaijan and even look to the oceans as we explore conflict in the South China Sea

Thank you for covering the Armenia - Azerbaijan conflict and how it shaped the borders.
As someone from the region, I would like to let you know that Nakhchivan became an exclave because Zangezur - a territory in between Azerbaijan's Karabakh and Nakhchivan regions was given to Armenia during the USSR. It was done by the USSR to make sure Azerbaijanis - ethnic Turkic people do not share direct border with Turkey.
Regards from Azerbaijan.

I think the map at 6: 18 is quite confusing. I -think- the red is supposed to highlight countries where borders changed after the fall of the Soviet Union. But because there's only one name on the map, it makes it appear like East Germany, Czechoslovakia and even Yugoslavia were part of Soviet Union. I expect better from a series that focuses on maps.

oh damn they mention an example of france as a country with a capital that has easy communication with all its borders but did not mention the piece of land france owns in South America called French Guiana which actually makes it the country with the largest time span due to overseas territories. bet you did not know that

I came here for another installment of Alize's colourful patterned shirts, bit disappointed really! In all seriousness, another top notch series from CC. And Alize's love of the subject transcends the screen too, adding another exciting chapter to the CC canon. Well done Crash Course. And rock on fellow Nerdfighters.

This is a very important topic to tackle, as some of the most important conflicts in the world in South Asia, Africa, and the Middle East arose from colonial powers imposing borders without taking into account real ethnic, religious, or cultural boundaries

China has forcefully occupied parts of so many countries around it! Tibet is the best example of what China has done and will do to any place it is able to forcefully occupy like termites!

Great video and good explanation of the Armenia/Azerbaijan conflict. Disappointed in downplaying the Armenian genocide as Turkey being -antagonistic- though.
