@Jimbob Robob Exactly how would control hundreds of millions of people even the Germans found it near impossible.

@Influence08 Australia never entered Europe other than providing pilots.

Hey, I actually remember noticing that Russian maps of Afghanistan were remarkably better than anything else we had. I always just chalked it up to the fact that they'd been there for 10 years quite a while before we even showed up.

KOSHMAR

Russians didn't win WWII. The Soviet Union fought Nazis after being happy for Hitler to destroy national integrity of countries and helped the Nazis conquer Poland only fighting the nazis after being invaded. I know you must hate hearing it but The USA Turned the tied of war.

Title of the video: "Why does Russia have the best maps of Britain? " Me Russian, who didn't know that Russia have the best maps of Britain: 🗿

Do you do voiceover for adverts on Dave?

Yep!

Try to hard, not to be funny anyway.

So Yandex maps is just following a long tradition I see.

Someone’s doing Russian. It’s just taken them a little longer than others.

Absolutely brilliant like milk

Brilliant!

I love you guys. You are the best source of useless trivia.

The same with Norway, and they even had detail from the most inner fjords in Norway

Illicit cartography? They got it from the Russians, I have a different dealer.

Vodka isnt Russian. Vodka is Polish

@Никита Морозов how's the economy, huh? What's the average GDP? And what about the amount of drunkards on the streets? Where is the intelligent russian youth that were talked about so much in propaganda?

How is Cieszyn Silesia? Still standing, unannexed?

There was one less “men” in the intro and it’s bothering meeee Anyone else

2 week anniversrye?

Well what if they just drank vodca and drew it while drunk...

Answer to the question in the title: So that they know where to plant the Novichok.

Hey guys plz discuss the map of Kolkata , the city is completely designed by the British as per London .

"You're welcome"

Ok

I bet the last US president gave em all the information.

The amount of nukes weren’t enough to nuke the whole world. Green land would still be alive like always

I hope they do a video on the kashmir border and dispute.

Is this fun with flags but with maps ? XD

Pure English humor..and such a finest theme.. oh man, I like it.

"dont watch it now! - watch it later" ... okay you got my full attention back xD sorry

Soviet invasion? Never existed in plans. Plan of Marshall-yes. And this propaganda still goes on. read Uk's newspapers!

These fellows appear hungry &/or sleep-deprived.

They are in fact not wrong right wrong not even close to not being right not wrong about the Gorbachev thing.

Ъ

Russia really have some weird habits lately and map making isn't one of them

There are a lot of Russian names in your patreon list...

"Don't look at it now, look at it later!" Crickey, you made me jump.

Very few people knew very little about? So the rest of us knew all about them?

Just found this completely by accident. This is great. Would suggest you should be writing and appearing on broadcast tv but you are clearly wayyy too good for it in every manner.

Mark ♥

What we take down depends upon the military needs...so...

At one time in history Ireland was the best mapped country in the world ,the British mapped every inch of Ireland to help with the occupation of Ireland

No-one guessing the maps at 5:19, ok New York Manhattan? Portsmouth & Isle of Wight Paris? London (tube) Prague?

Co on powiedział? 0:50

Commys

Понимать надо. Люди работают.

Thank you Youtube algorithm, you have blessed me with another godlike channel. Satan bless the bots

Google maps be like: I still have to learn much.

I like how you acknowledge the Russian achievements and contrbutions that mostly everyone else prefers to deny and ignore...i.e. periodic table and WW2 👍

6:14 what about when the CIA invaded in 1979? Whose maps were used then?? ...also this is absolutely brilliant, I can't believe I'm just finding this show now.

Winning World War 2. Sarcasm, please say that was sarcasm..

@Bence Baracsi You cite Barbarossa. That was the German invasion of Russia in 1941. The Battle of Britain was fought in 1940. The most vital battle of WW2. It denied the Germans the ability to invade the UK. This led to the British mounting continuing bombing raids into Germany so tying up vital arms and manpower. But don't argue with me. Ask Albert Speer. He said the biggest mistake the Germans ever made was not defeating the British. And where were the D Day landings launched from..Learn some REAL history...

@Orwell 1984Here's some history. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Barbarossa?wprov=sfla1 I don't want to insult you in case you're 12 or disabled or something, but please make sure you know what you're saying before you assume others are idiots.

@Bence Baracsi Ever pick up a history book. They were allies at the start of WW2, signed the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact, then carved up Poland between them. Only one country won WW2 and that was the UK...

@Orwell 1984 They... did? Stalin joined the allies after Hitler invaded the USSR

@Bence Baracsi How did Russia win WW2..

Maybe they did invade not physically but culturally. You can't deny how communism is an upwards trend since then.

I'd love to see it

and I genuinely recommend it!) Thank you thank you thank you please! :)

The Siegfried-Maps of my native country Switzerland are still the best!

2:24 Guys, you should have put pencil in there. Missed opportunity.

_"...always within 10,000 miles from a Russian spy"_ - ...or anyone

I'm sure the Soviet military had more detailed maps than the USGS, thats like saying an F1 car has more horsepower than a Prius

Jay Foreman: "Why does Russia have the best maps of Britain?" Russia: "xexexe"

Jay Foreman: "Why does Russia have the best maps of Britain?" Russia: "Why don't you call yourself Hayley Cropper any more?"

I like your new haircut jay :)

This "Polish map" isn't from cold war era, rather it was made for polish pilots during WWII.

Russia didn't even come up with vodka

2:58 diskette.

So if someone would have asked me last week if i liked maps i would have said 'hell no!'. Yet i seem to have binged loads of videos on this channel over the last few days. The comedy mixed with facts and the ad skits are strangely intriguing. I may have become a map facts fan. Good Job with these videos! 😊

MAP MEN MAP MEN MAP MAP MAP MEN WHERE ARE THE OTHER MENSES??

I'm polish No joke

Poland allied during the Cold War? You mean soviet puppet?

6:06 but do not forget, that china, the ccp, is the bigger problem.

There is a great 1970s Russian map of Wellington NZ. It has every building in all the Quarters and the Parliamentary Precinct, all the companies that were in that building, and even little notes on what you could buy from shops at every location. Someone in the Soviet Embassy really really liked maps and spent a lot of time doing it, and updating it.

U are so very good at those adds :)

You know there's a mistake at the start, right? Two, if you consider that you did not mention Dostoievski.

This is by far one of the most interesting you tube video I have watched and that has changed my option on the entire soviet union 10/10.

As a Pole, I felt weird when you suggested that our air force could invade GB. We always liked you, guys! The Soviets wouldn't let us be nice to you :c

Are these Soy Boys gay lovers?

Boooooooooo. You suck.

They don't

They do say the Russians have the best spies in the world. They even managed to get one into extremely high up in the Japanese forces during WW2 who told them they had no intention of invading through China. Freeing up a LOT of specially trained and equipped troops to stall and then drive back the German advance in the middle of the Russian winter

I never thought anyone could make maps fun, well done.

Is this what BeardyMan does in his off time from creating epic tunes? 😂👍

@Jay Foreman well shaft me sideways with a rubber duck, that’s awesome! And also nice to meet you Jay as a very new subscriber to your channel, I apologise for not even being aware BeardyMan had a brother! 🙈

Beardyman (Darren Foreman) is my brother, and he made the Map Men theme music for us.

Its the MAP, it’s the MAP, It’s the MAP, it’s the MAP, ‘tis the phucking map KOmrad

Yo I’ve only just realised the ‘intro song’ is different every episode - pretty epic if u ask me

Wow I thought all the other ones were the same

Кошмар!

i was singing along to the intro only to realise that there is no extra "men" in the end! am i hallucinating or did you remove it? if yes, pls get it back on!!! :(

I never trust English guys who say Russia won the war. Way too beta

@Cian MacGana how? we were stuck on the island for two years until the Americans showed up and the Red Army got to Berlin well before the western front did.

@Cian MacGana =))

@dushas nah Britain won the war

pretty sure that's what you call it, when one side has inflicted 85-90% of casualties of the defeated side.

sweet surname bro

Winning ww2 ? Debatable

English people really should use Polish spelling, it's far easier! (I'm Polish of course)

"Winning WW2" GTFO

Dendi ?

sheldon cooper(s) ... it's funny. But i will continue to hate england for what you done in your history. Don't worry guys one day we will come :))) See you later :)

What a ridiculous thing to say.

They still put planes in our airspace.
