Hey guys, my name is Leroy Kenton. Thanks for tuning in to another episode of FTD facts
So Germany and Mexico, there are two countries that are in completely different
Ends of the planet and since they're competing against each other in the 2018 FIFA World Cup. I
decided to do a video on Germany or
Mexico and you guys get to decide which country do you think is better?
So let me know your thoughts down below in the comment section. So starting off this video first off
I want to introduce the country of Germany of all the European states
Germany has the highest percentage of immigrants in its population
Over 10 million people living in Germany today were born outside of Germany
That's about 12 percent of the German population
Germany is the second most popular
destination for immigrants in the world after the United States
and its total population is eighty two point two nine million people and Germany's population density is
230 point four four people per square kilometer and it has a land area of 350
7114 square kilometers. Ok, now, let's take a look at Mexico
Mexico is located in North America directly south of the United States and Mexico not only borders the United States
But also shares borders on the east by Guatemala Belize as well as the Gulf of Mexico
With a history that goes back to the Aztecs in ancient Mayans Mexico is a place of endless fascination
And its total population is a hundred and thirty point seven six million people and this makes Mexico the 11th most
populous nation in the entire world
It has a population density of sixty six point five seven people four square kilometers, and it has a land area of 1 million
960
4375 square kilometers. Ok, so since these countries are going up against each other in the FIFA World Cup
I decided to sprinkle a little facts about their FIFA World Cup teams
Now Germany is a reigning FIFA World Cup champion. Now, they've appeared in the World Cup 18 times and out of those 18 times
They won the championship
Four times and that pushes their FIFA ranking to number one in the entire world
Now exa co has appeared in the world cup 15 times and surprisingly they haven't want any FIFA
Championships so far their current ranking in FIFA worldwide is in 16th position. Ok
So now let's move on to looking at the money of these two nations
the currency used in Germany is the euro and one euro equals one point two three US dollars in
Mexico they use the Mexico peso and one peso equals 0.05 three US dollars
Germany is a third largest export economy in the entire world
And Germany is expected to retain its strong influence within the euro area and remains an anchor of the regional stability
Its current GDP is three point four seven trillion dollars and its GDP per capita is forty eight point seven
thousand dollars based on the latest numbers Germany's exports
totaled one point three two trillion dollars and its top exports were cars as well as vehicle parts and other exports that were
Unspecified are all in the top three now looking at Germany's imports
They imported one point zero five trillion dollars and their top
Imports are also cars vehicles and other unspecified
Imports now cyclical should look at the numbers of Mexico. And Mexico is actually the 15th largest
Economy in the entire world its GDP is one point zero five trillion dollars and this GDP per capita is seventeen point nine
thousand dollars
Mexico has exported
373 billion dollars according to the latest numbers and their top
Exports include cars vehicle parts and delivery trucks now their imports were a little bit higher at three hundred and eighty billion dollars
And it stopped imports where vehicle parts are fine petroleum and integrated circuits
Okay, so now let's look at which country would be more expensive or cheaper to live in when we look at the cost of living
In Germany compared to Mexico we see that food is 70% more expensive housing is 102 percent more expensive
Clothing is 54 percent higher
transportation is 128 percent higher personal care in Germany is yep 64 percent higher and entertainment is
67% more expensive. So when you look at the totals the cost of living in Germany is
90% more expensive than in Mexico and finally Germany's national debt is
2.6 one trillion dollars and its debt per citizen is 30
1231 dollars mexico's national debt is a lot lower at
492
Billion dollars and Mexico's debt per citizen is four thousand three hundred and eighty six dollars
