Today we look at two very unique countries that are different by culture and size
But are also separated by a twenty eight hour drive or over
26,000 kilometers from the capitals of Denmark and Turkey
Hey
everybody what's going on and welcome back to
FTD facts the channel where we talk about people cultures and places from all around the world now
I'm Dave Walpole and today
We are gonna look at Turkey
And we're gonna look at Denmark now
Normally here on the channel well first of all here on the channel if you guys are big on learning about
Militaries and learning about cultures and countries you want to subscribe to this channel because that's what we do here
And if you're just like a channel that listens to you guys, and you know gives videos that you guys suggest well
This is also the kind of channel that we do now like I was saying on this channel
We sometimes look at countries that are generally like right beside each other
But for this video these guys are separated so far apart
And we got to find out what is similar and different about these two great nations now with that in mind guys
I want to know what is your favorite thing about?
Your country. Let me know down there in the comment section below
But let's get started shall we so let's first start off looking at Denmark now
It's got a population of five million seven hundred and forty eight thousand seven hundred and sixty nine people approximately
Ranking twelfth in the world with a population density of one hundred and thirty three people point nine
Per square kilometer now as for its land size of Denmark it gets a little complex because there's many different
factors first of all for its main land size
It's about forty two thousand nine hundred and thirty one kilometers square ranking one hundred and sixtieth in the world
but if you incorporate Faroe Island which is one thousand three hundred ninety three point four kilometres square and
Greenland which is two million one hundred and sixty six thousand eighty six kilometers square the total land size of everything that Denmark owns
Equals two million two hundred and ten thousand four hundred and ten point four kilometers square making it one
Huge country it's big, but there's not a lot of people there, so they got a small population density
But moving right along to Turkey if you were to look at it its population is a lot bigger with
82 million eight hundred and thirty five thousand ninety people again, that's just an approximate
But they sit at 16th in the world when it comes to their population size now as for the population density
They have approximately a hundred and two people per square kilometer
Ranking a hundred and the seventh and if you were to put those people on all of its lands
It totals seven hundred and eighty three thousand three hundred and fifty-six kilometers square
Ranking 36 in the world and approximately 1.3 percent of that is water now when we talk about population
I do want to mention that we also do talk about the militaries of these two countries, but for this video
We aren't going to get into that if you guys want to well
I'll put a card right here right now for you guys to click on but
Realistically you should just wait till the end of the video because I'll also give you a link to that as well
Because right now let's talk about economy well in Denmark
They use the Danish Krone and comparing that to the US dollar one US dollar equals six point zero one
DKK now as for Turkey they use the Turkish lira, which one u.s.
Dollar equals three point seven eight T. Are wise now if we were to compare won t ry it would equal one point five nine
DKK and now just because one dollar is stronger than the other it doesn't mean that their economy is better, or worse
There's a lot of things to keep in mind such as GDP now for GDP
We're gonna look at the purchasing power parity because that's the best way to compare nations now the PPP GDP
Of Denmark is two hundred and eighty five point four six eight billion dollars ranking
52nd in the world now its GDP per capita
Equals 49 thousand six hundred and thirteen dollars and to break that down even further. Let's look at imports and exports
What is great about these nations of what they sell and buy for the exports of?
Denmark they sit at eighty two billion dollars being 31st in the world now three point eight percent of that is electronic generating sets
Three point two percent of that is pig meat really and three point two percent of that is also packaged medicaments whatever the heck those
Things are now as for its imports
It sits at eighty three billion being
29th in the world with four point eight percent of that being cars
Two point nine percent being refined petroleum and two point eight percent of that being packaged medicaments as well
But now if we look at turkey their
Imports and exports the gdp is a lot more for example the gdp and turkey is two point two
nine trillion dollars ranking 13th in the world with a GDP per capita of twenty seven thousand six hundred and thirty-four dollars now of the
exports they equal one hundred thirty nine billion dollars ranking 25th
And the top percentages of those are cars at six percent
Gold being five point nine percent and knitted t-shirts being two point one percent, but jumping over to its imports
They equal one hundred and eighty eight billion dollars being
18th in the world
With five point two percent of that being cars five point one percent of that being unspecified in three point nine percent being refined petroleum
So that's great. We've got GDP. We've got economy. We've got a lot of things, but you know what let's keep in mind
Sometimes things are just a little bit different
You know they cost up right in one country is different from the other so let's talk about living expenses of these two amazing
Countries now the cost of living in Turkey from Denmark would mean that food is 59% cheaper
Housing is 65% cheaper clothes are 53 percent cheaper transportation is also
38% cheaper with personal care being 43 and entertainment being 50% cheaper as well in total living in Turkey is
approximately 53%
Cheaper than Denmark now of course you can't have money without looking at debt
Let's take a quick look at that as well now for this. We are going to look at the national debt in u.s.
Dollars to compare the two for the national debt of denmark it equals
123 billion two hundred and eighty seven million three hundred and sixteen thousand dollars
And the total debt per citizen equals roughly twenty one thousand seven hundred and eighty four dollars
And if you were to take that money and put it into single dollar bills and stack them on top of each other it would
Equal point zero for trips to the moon now as for turkey in US dollars
They have two hundred and thirty billion dollars seven hundred and ninety million six hundred and sixty five
thousand dollars in debt however per citizen that equals about two thousand eight hundred and eighty one dollars
which is actually the lowest i've seen out of any of the countries that we've compared other countries to
However in single dollar bills if you were to stack those on top of each other it would equal point zero seven
percent of the trip to the moon
So there you have it guys
That is a look at the two countries turkey and denmark two countries that are very different from each other
