Ghost Countries
Okay: so, what exactly is a ghost country? Well, it's kind of a catch-all term I made for countries that no longer exist, have limited recognition, and/or may exist in the future. They're sort of here, sort of not - like a ghost. But, even if long dead or not officially recognized, a country can still have a lasting impact. Consider ancient Rome, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, or Soviet Union. Of course many smaller, less-well known countries have left their mark too. And, this is true all over the world. From Aceh to Zaire and everything in between, we plan to cover it all! Episodes are uploaded once or twice a month initially, which I hope to make bi-weekly going forward. In addition to our regular videos, we have an ongoing podcast discussing the legacy of various ghost countries, ghost geography, the history behind flags, and other miniseries planned. If you have any suggestions for a country to be covered in a future video, let us know.
