In this video, I’m going to be giving one tip for every single country in Europe, specifically for regionguessing. Hope this is helpful for you 🙂

  1. an easy region guess for poland i have as a native (other than mountains/hills) is if you see a really old house on the country side and it's made out of wood (like this https://i.imgur.com/gRTJsW5.png). then it's most likely eastern poland, like warsaw region and further east.
    they also appear down south in the mountains, so beware of that

    in other parts of poland the oldest houses in villages are made out of red brick (https://i.imgur.com/lm73Jwu.jpeg). it's due to poland being split between russia and prussia (germany) in 1795 for ~100 years. there is a map showing that split on modern borders, but don't trust it. central poland even though it was under russia, it has red brick houses/barns

    please correct me if i said something wrong

  2. for Poland there's a "poland A – poland B" distinction with how poor everything looks. there are divisions to this day and memes about "widać zabory" or "the partitions can be seen" – the poorer parts of poland are in the south-east where russia occupied throughout the 19th century. this however has leveled out over the past century

  3. Wrt Baltics, I’ve noticed that on more coastal areas, you get more pines, but more inland you get more deciduous. I expect this is because toward the interior, you may get more summertime rain due to land heating causing convection & thunderstorms, giving an advantage to the fast-growing, more shading deciduous species, while the coastal areas will be somewhat drier and also moderated in shoulder seasons by proximity to ocean, so the conifers can take advantage of intermittent days of warm temperatures in early spring before deciduous leaves are out, and have a competitive advantage there.

  4. 3:34 lots and lots of repeats and missed cuts like this one unfortunately in the video. still great tips but the double cuts make it a bit tedious to watch. i understand you were probably in a rush to leave for sweden but still something to keep an eye out for. have noticed a few double cuts in recent videos. keep going tho, love the content anyways, just wanted to give some feedback 🙂

  5. I'm at the point where i can region guess some countrys (South america and asia) but still can't tell which one i am between SI/HR/SK/CZ and my nemesis India/Bangladesh

  6. "Poland region guess: If the road has patches or serrations. Works 60% of the time."

    Dude, what a tip! Łódź hedge is no more

  7. Poland tip: if the road has patches or serrations going up and down, it is a good road, but it will probably only function about 60% of the time. Don’t ask what happens to the road for the other 40% of the time.

  8. For Luxembourg there are two main tips beside the extra hilliness up North.
    First if you see vinyards, its on the south half of the German border. Pretty much guaranteed.
    Second has a bit more exceptions but if you see industrial, coal, iron smelt type things like old factories or huge chimneys then its extreme South West. This region is also very urban, almost like Netherlands.
    Lastly, I'm still looking into this but if you see snow in Luxembourg you go West of central Lux. Sometimes up North.

    Shame it doesnt really matter though😂😂

  9. Also for Belgium the red brick tip is not a great one as red brick is also used A LOT up to the Luxembourgish border. Now in the towns right on the Lux border, you could probably notice LESS red brick.
    However gray stone houses are the best meta for South Belgium along with hills obviously. They're similar to maybe Brittany in France, just gray stones and generally dark gray roof.
    And the nearer to Lux, the fancier and modern the houses.

  10. So cool to see people know about the galway rock walls
    while rock walls in general are more common in galway, the type you showed is not one that would make me super confident guessing there. there's kind of a specific type of one that is SUPER common especially in connemara (i think)
    you can find them in clare and mayo aswell but not to the same extent
    in galway they basically replace hedges lining the fields, that's how common they are

  11. I’ve found that if I’m in France and it’s somewhat residential that green light posts usually means you’re in the west. I’ve had this not be true maybe only once but is that just a coincidence or is it a genuine tip?
