I attempted to map every US Military base, and it was not easy.

hey friends. thanks for being here. As I said in the video, this is an on going project. I want to keep understanding this. I want to hear from you. I want to know if I placed dots in countries where they don't belong so I can keep refining this map to be more accurate. But I really want to know what its like to live hear a military base so please let me know if you have any experience with that!

If there are any errors in the base map I will edit this comment and put them below. fwiw I spent weeks trying to get every dots right. but there are just SO MANY!!
hey, there is one on malta to i belive, near a place called Mdina
Too simplistic a view of the world order. Far more than simple Joe Blow can grasp. Sort of like grasping physics to him.
It shows that our government doesn't trust or lean towards alliances. They have to show domination in order to maintain reputation over ethical relations as if all other nations are animals you could not reason with. Not to mention, many of these points were taken through unjustified wars.
I think this could be a lot more informative if you spent more time on the graphics and less time cutting back to your face…
pretty sad when infrastructure on bases abroad is better than infrastructure at home. lol. usa such a joke of a country
Why were you working for NATO?
No, the US military is not the "largest organization" in world history. Perhaps the most powerful in terms of weapons, but not the largest.
The (current) US Military is being dwarfed by e.g. the size of the Red Army or the 3rd Reich's army in terms of headcounts, but also compared to its own size during WW2.
After WW1, feelings with Britain were mutual but we did not consider ourselves apart of the alliance and had went back into isolation over the death toll which had reminded us why we stopped having anything to do with their affairs to begin with.
Once again we had tried staying uninvolved with other world leaders inquiring about why we’re pretending like the world isn’t at war, but WW2 had taught us a hard lesson about what happens when we sit idly-by, which we had previously done for most our history after gaining independence.
That was a major turning point in our history after Pearl Harbor and Germany declared war on America, away from being isolationist and anti-social to a global moderator of sorts. And with no looking back, we started approaching what people knows it as today.
Actually, there is no Military base in Sri Lanka
What's going on in the out back ???
There's no military base in India … but both countries do have a Logistics Exchange agreement or smth like that whereby US aircrafts can drop by and refuel or Indian Navy vessel can be refueled by an American tanker in Japan
Conquer we must if our cause is just?😂
Considering China is setting up military bases all over the world: yes, it is absolutely good the US does it too
what is the date on this video
all my life i been living near a american base and nothing out of this world.matter fact is very quiet,right now is a base 15 minutes away and another 30 minutes,nice and quiet ,just the noise of the planes once on a while
is a reason why so many bases around the world,johnny explain why is that ,cause many ppl dont know why is that
India only protect his motherland like father protect his family ❤️❤️🥰
If anyone asks me why Russia is paranoid about NATO expanding to its borders, I'll redirect them to this video.
GOOD. Better us than China or Russia 😬
Can us build base in Bucha, Ukraine ? I will be happy 😆
