[TejbsPromoter]

visit tejbz for great vids rate and subscribe

[streetskater8811]

Stop arguing about Israel and Palestine. Its irrelevant to the video and everyone just sounds ignorant

[adrastea99]

Video should be titled: "Capital cities in Asia and countries I don't care about"

[kerryoco]

@adrastea99 lame. -1.

[adrastea99]

Hey, screw you, they didn't mention ONE city I care about

Title is misleading

[piemanization]

Bangkok means City of Gods, get your facts straight Good Magazine.

[PersonalPariah]

@piemanization That is the translation of the official Thai name, not Bangkok, which is the Chinese name for it I believe. Get YOUR facts straight before casting stones.

[piemanization]

@PersonalPariah Whoops, sorry, IT is City of plums. Didn't catch that when I was posting the comment, sorry.

[Q8iSky]

Jerusalem is the capital of Palestine not israel.

[Boombox2777]

Why not search your facts first, dipshit?

[Q8iSky]

Well why don't you go and learn when did Palestine Founded and when the Dirty State I mean Israel been founded, then you will know the facts, Dipshit!

[RHWAHL]

I'm sorry, where is Palestine exactly? Who is the president, prime minister or king? What is their currency, over there in Palestine? Oh..thats right. There is no Palestine. There is a bunch of dirty arabs who wish there was a Palestine. Wishing don't make it so, dipshit. Long live Israel.

[CodeLyokoUnited]

@RHWAHL

Well, there was an internationally recognized Palestine...

...until Israel invaded it.

Just because Jews may deserve Israel because it is their homeland doesn't mean that the Palestine's who've lived there for thousands of years don't deserve it either.

And for the record, I can find you Palestine's ruler, location and currency. They do have those.

And just because I can't off the top of my head means nothing. I can't name Israel's currency either.

[RHWAHL]

No, its is Israel. There is no such place as Palestine, dirty arab fuck.

[SlankTV]

@RHWAHL What were you talking about? Israelis are jewish ya mad scone :P!

[christech82]

wish it happens

[slinko01]

love it.

[smile300]

awesome videos thank you GOOD magazine :)

[eventide925]

Minnesota, Appleton translates to "Ghost town candidate full of inbred mouth breathing rednecks...

[AzoreanProud]

cities?

Cancers on Earth (organism (biosphere))

[parvizkasimov]

Am i wrong, or Good is wrong. Jerusalem is not the capital of Israel. As I know Tel-Aviv was the capital. And Jerusalem is separated between Jews and Muslims.

[h3rshel]

When Israel was established in '48, Tel-Aviv was made the capital of Israel. After the Six-Day-War, Israel changed its capital city to Jerusalem, which to this day is considered both the capital cities of Israel and the P.A.

However, many countries place their embassies in Tel-Aviv if they do not recognize Jerusalem as the capital.

[crock703]

Washington, D.C. came from the Capitol's designers wanting to name it after the first President. He rebuffed the idea as an unwarranted tribute, and chose "the District of Columbia (D.C.)"

Washington comes from the Germanic "wascht" or "wood", and the latin "tin" or "tooth." Washington, Wooden teeth.

[Enqueion]

so his meant george "woodtooth" ????

[Enqueion]

i just noticed how old your comment was, sorry, forget i said anything.

[crock703]

I was kidding about the second part. I wish his name was a reference to his wooden teeth...

[Enqueion]

i think that would be hilarious!

[PlanckLimit]

New York, translates to... o_O

[aphexmandelbrot]

"The More Recent York".

[thething111222]

new york is not the capital

[PlanckLimit]

I know. Just parodying the fact that many city names in the United States don't really have any ulterior meaning and are rather two-dimensional in comparison to others.

[herdofthis]

You know before we had oceans, yeah do you think the places we live in now would be called Hills? Didnt people used to live where the sea is.... Atamology? Lon-don LONDis TOn Londis Town LON-AvaLon TON. DON-King? KING of Avalon's town Londonshire. Kings of Leon. Oxford. Ox-Ford Ox - Axe/Cow. Ford - Bridge/river Sheffield - Cooksmeadow FOLKESTONE Hmmm

[LiquidJello090]

random huh

[VideoCre8]

Gods gift really...how can we give it back to him?

[CassidyAiiit]

you shouldnt vote for neo-cons first and trust 9/11 myth. dont cry here now!

[VideoCre8]

WTF are you talking about first of all I didn't vote and second 9/11 really happened I know people that died there you prick it was on my fucking birthday too so go crawl in a hole and die you consperecy fucktard or better yet go back in time and put yourself on the plane so you can see how real it was

[CassidyAiiit]

yes it really happened, but different way medial propaganda shows it. what about WTC7? What about 3-meter hole in Pentagon made by 100 ton aircraft manned by unable terrorist pilots? Did you ever think with your own brain, or can you just swear?

[VideoCre8]

Cassidy Don't play Sherlock Holmes with an American tradgidy kid. If you think their is some sort of goverment/media cover up with 9/11 that's your mental alment. But let me just say thinking with your mind is not hearing unlogical theories by other little kids like yourself and just mimicing them. So go back to your drawing board and try again. Hey maybe you can try to disprove the Holocaust cause you know that didn't happened like they told us either.

[jakt2good4u]

the arabs are teh worlds problems

if study the bible or are a christian you probly would know

abraham was unpatient with God to give him a son so he slept with his maid who gave birth to ishmael

when abrahams wife did have a son he was named isaac

isaac is the father of the jews and ishmael is father of the arabs

the fighting brothers became fighting nations

God even told the mother of ishmael that his desendents would be a powerful people but with many enemies

this is true in todays world

[matthewcdavey]

Oh comon, stop fighting everyone. Just talk about interesting stuff like PumaPumaPride.

[isaacwarsh]

Why did you guys mistake the star of david (Jewish) with a pentagram (Satanist)?

[PumaPumaPride]

You know, its actually a Greece sign that represented the goddess Venus. It only became that after Christianity got their hand son it and attempted to destroy the culture.

[hfoejgejperf]

haha i think they did hey, lol scary

[jakewayd]

This just in: Jerusalem actually translates to Israel is an apartheid state, and the Jews enjoy the genocide of the Palestinian people because they are sociopaths with gross errors in their DNA.

[nevous8]

and you cite that proof please? and i thought being a jew was religious... not a race...i didn't know a religion could alter your DNA...

[hfoejgejperf]

you are a douchebag

[jakewayd]

That's fine by me, at least I don't genocide innocent Arabs like the Israeli Jews. The Israelis are all going to burn in hell.

[hfoejgejperf]

go back to iraq then faggot no one is making you stay in the US you stupid fucking homo, arabs are the worlds problem anyway, i dont like the jewish anyway but they will sure crush the arabs

[jakewayd]

The Arabs wouldn't give a rat's ass about the West if they were sovereign. They react violently to western interventionism and colonialism. The Israelis today are the primary cause of violent death across the whole damned planet. Those cunts can never repudiate their deep lasting assault on the dignity of humanity.

[Leo92112]

new video:

Bratislava, Pozsony, Pressburg, capiatl of Slovakia

[UserNameForYeeTube]

Rangoon - the (now former) capital of Burma, a military dictatorship.

[clarkcolt45]

Stockholm means island made of stocks, lol.. or like stock-island

[greengronirandom]

no it doesnt, it means bay of stocks

[clarkcolt45]

I should know, im swedish. The word "holme" means islet, and the city lies on a group of many islets. Houses made of stocks was very popular about the same time stockholm was founded.

[indyguy101]

in british slang bog means toilet....

in the english language it means a water-logged piece of land or swamp, sorted.

[hamisharn]

ok did we only see 3rd world shitty asian/middle eastern country capital citys? they are not capital cities, but large garbage dumps

[Orikigami]

>:( That's insulting. Some of the most beautiful, talented, hard-working, intelligent people come from those regions.

[sounynoma]

If you are refering to cities with an actual history and culture, yes. US cities dont have them, to bad eh?

[mdmagnotti]

interesting that baghdad means "gods gift". In slavic languages, Bog or Bahg means "god". I wonder how closely they're related.

[hamisharn]

in english bog means shit ahahhaha

[mdmagnotti]

Actually in English "bog" means "swamp", but close enough, right? I don't have a problem with opinions, but you're being kind of a dick. You, my friend, are a large garbage dump.

[haoqh]

Ironic.

[LunacyProductions]

But s'pore and hong kong names do not have deep meanings.

[LunacyProductions]

Singapore is a one city country, so its capital is Singapore. Therefore, it should be in the list as it translates to Lion City (Singapura). Same for Hong Kong, Fragrant Harbor.

[postmodernistme]

In what language? The Thai capital is Krungthep in Thai, not anything like Bangkok; The (first part of the) Thai name means city of angels. So did the GOOD producers of this video just take Bangkok and find the closest Thai words to it to come up with the plum name? Given the Bangkok translation, I don't really trust any of the other ones.

[LunacyProductions]

Burma's Rangoon, in burmese, Yangon, is correctly translated as End of Strife.

[crapo87]

Bangkok's proper name is "Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Yuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Piman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasit" or "The city of angels, the great city, the eternal jewel city, the impregnable city of God Indra, the grand capital of the world endowed with nine precious gems, the happy city, abounding in an enormous Royal Palace that resembles the heavenly abode where reigns the reincarnated..."

[crapo87]

"Bangkok (translating as 'village of wild plums') was the original site for the capital city and was located west of the Chao Phraya river (in modern day Thonburi)."

"Bangkok Yai is one of the 50 districts of Bangkok, Thailand... was also the site of Thon Buri when the capital was set up here during 1767 till 1782."

[Arad747]

Tehran, by far is the best!

[bigmoe93]

....about Baghdad,sucks how there is so much chaos and it is Gods gift to us maybe the reason the End days are so near is because we *ppl in power* are trying to destroy what has been givin to us that is suppose to be cherished

[bigmoe93]

I love this video,its shows basically the meanings of the places where humans started its shows how there was a meaning to everything in the begining......Baghdad-Gods gift

[TheModernConsumerInc]

I love this!

[agentaerick]

chicago translates to land of stinky onions ... or so my 5th grade science teacher says.

i think she is dead now.

[thisgirlangie]

Happy holidays to you too :)

[LordBalto]

And Washington translates to...wait for it...A Load of Laundry! This is lame even for a magazine that donates its laundry, er, profits to charity.

[pilipinoninja]

oh and great music!

[pilipinoninja]

Honolulu means a sheltered bay. I was saddened because Honolulu will never make it onto something like this. Honolulu is the capital of Hawai'i which, was once an independent nation. The UnitedStates overthrew the internationally recognized Hawaiian Kingdom in 1893. Would have been nice to see those and maybe some Native American names for places. I am a new subscriber to your channel. Your work is artful and mazing!!! Thank you for this one.

[pelyas]

[teencritic]

Rangoon is not the capital of Burma anymore. The capital is now Naypyidaw.

[BraveTurtle6]

Heart-warming!!

[MojoPinata]

Dublin means Black Pool

[HeronOfHeaven]

China translates to the center of the world

Japan translates to a country of sunrise

Korea translates to a place of Han Dynasty

Hong Kong translates to a fragrant harbor

Taiwan translates to foreigner in Sirayan

Singapore translates to Lion City

[HeronOfHeaven]

Beijing - Northern capital

Tokyo - Eastern capital

Actually, they are not meaningful

[mtokiwa]

Taipei - in the north part of Taiwan; 'tai' ,short from Taiwan, 'pei' similar to pronouncing of 北(north).

Another meaningless city name. (=_=)

But during Chin Dynasty, 'Taipei' actually meant 'the northern half of Taiwan', not just a city.

[Davidthetree]

you are all masters at finding the perfect music and incorporating it flawlessly.
