If you missed it, I just made a video where I hunt for Switzerland's hidden mountain bunkers. Check it out! https://youtu.be/9bPIaHg11mI
A video on How Switzerland became the country it is today (including how it came in to existance in the first place) would be very Interesting, even though i'm Swiss i'm sure you could find some information about that I don't know myself.
Also the Swiss currency the Swiss Franc is abbreviated CHF = Confoederatio Helvetica Franc
Video idea? Guyana-Venezuela Border Dispute?
Still does in Greece👍
You know the video is good, when it starts with "switzerland"
Could u do a video on the rise of people thinking that the 9/11 was created by the government, as a trillion dollars went missing the day before from the pentagon
Schwiiz, not Switzerland.
wait, people call it switzerland?
The Russian version of 4chan is Swiss too then I guess

Helvete is hell in Swedish, and Sweden tends to get mixed up with Switzerland a lot.
Loved? I despise it!
My Helvetica T-Shirt is written in the Comic Sans font!
Elveția.
You bem Helvetia, right? Helvetica is the adjective, not the noun.
We call it Elvetia in romanian and I didn't have any clue why is so different from other languages so far
You’re the best
The documentary film Helvetica went into the history of the Helvetica font name, which was pretty interesting. It was called Neue Hass Grotesk because it was an update to an existing font. Naturally they didn't think the name would do well in the US which was the intended market, so it was changed to Helvetica.
Fun fact:
There's is a part in Indonesia (medan, north sumatra) where there is a district named helvetia since that area was a tabacco plantation owned by swiss entrepreneur
(Also other area have same name as well, polonia, marelan "maryland
Do you like Switzerland or something
OH MY GOD, JOHNNY’S FIRST NICHIJOU ANIME REFERENCE
Excellent use of maps. I too love them, but don't collect them. You're the whole package – brilliant and beautiful.
Maybe a story on the over 17k Russians with billions in assets hiding in Switzerland? Or PO Box corporations registered in Zug…?
Anyone who ever read Asterix would know this.
I saw what you did there. I always wondered why it was CH, cool to know.
Sexy Zwitserland 🇨🇭
Another thing is that Switzerland was the birthplace of the International Typographic Style, aka the Swiss Style, the granddaddy of modern minimalist design. Helvetica's basically its poster boy.
This comment maybe buried and considered off topic. But I would like to see a story on women’s suffrage in Switzerland and how they gained the right to vote in the 1970s, but in the canton of Appenzell it was not granted until 1990.
Switzerland is beautiful
Why the sudden interest in Switzerland? Could if have anything to do with The World Economic Forum and Davos crowd that you're working with now?
prononciation was good and if you want to know more about swiss maps, and fluant in french, try to find a documentary named : les Suisses Guillaume Henri Dufour.
It's about swiss greatest hero, ingenior, maps maker, general and co-founder of red cross
Hi Johnny! I have a beautiful single, fun loving skiing,very young early 50 y.o lady named Beatrice. You single and want a hook up?👍😁. I'm a Kiwi, NEW ZEALAND.
In Romanian we call it Elveția
Love u dude, but it was not the roman empire at Caesar time, the people living there sinply became ally of a repubblic.
If you think Switzerland's name is "Helvetica", then you think the name of the USA is "Americanae" (or "Americani", depending how you translate the word "States"). But maybe in the USA the concept of nouns and adjectives is not taught in schools anymore?
because lots muslims destroyed switzerland.
If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must look outward if you wanna be successful in life.
That's why Helvetic Airways is called that!
I am starting to think this guy has an obsession with Switzerland
Eluveitie is a cool folk metal/melodeath band from Switzerland. Check em out🤘🏽
`~~~~~Helvetica standart~~~`
Artificial Intelligence for world leadership is the only option.
I love that he loves my home country 😂
Please do a video about Henri Dufour: mountaineer (= he made a relief map!), co-founder of the Red Cross and general who ended a civil war within a month (the last military action on swiss soil)
I didn’t know it was possible to simp over a country
in greece it's still called helvetia
It's just a question of time until he moves to switzerland xD
Nice loop 🙂
Is it because of their official national typeface?
