But, undeveloped country ใ ใ ๐ข
Wonderful Greece, very good video.
You missed the island of Milos. You pointed to Bravrona in Attica, with the famous temple of Artemis.

why did someone add E to Bc and Ad so annoying
Ancient Albanian ๐ฆ๐ฑ Gods and Goddess, not โgreekโ! Learn true history. STOP โ๐ป the euro-russian indoctrination and propaganda ๐ฎ! All of the names are in Albanian.
"ฮฮฮฮ ' ฮงฮฮ ฮ ฮฮฮฅฮกฮ ฮ ฮฮคฮกฮ ฮฃฮฮฅ
ฮฮฮ ฮคฮ ฮฮฮกฮ ฮงฮฮกฮคฮฮกฮ." ๐๐๐๐ค๐ค๐ค
What does Thessaloniki mean in โgreekโ?! It means nothing! This is an Ancient Albanian ๐ฆ๐ฑ Name, created from the Albanian Name โThessaloโ (Thessalia Region), + the Albanian verb โniqiโ which means โchaseโ (standard โndiqโ), in order to mean those who chased the Thessalians (people from Thessalia Region)! The name Thessalia is created from two Albanian words, from the word โdhesaโ which means โground levelโ and the verb โriaโ which means โstayโ, in order to give the meaning of โlowland regionโ because Thessaly is the largest lowland in Greece! Also another word which is used in Albanian today is โpรซrdhesรซโ which means ground level one floor building, โon ground levelโ or โflat on the groundโ, from the Albanian words โpรซrโ = โonโ, โdheโ = โsoilโ and โzรซโ = โcaptureโ! Likewise โThessaliaโ was โDhessariaโ = โria + dhessaโ = โplace of stay + low groundโ, in order to mean โlowlands regionโ!
Likewise the region of โZagoriaโ ๐ฆ๐ฑ is Albanian also, from the Albanian verb โzaโ = โcaptureโ and the Albanian word โgorโ = โstoneโ (standard โgurโ), in order to mean a highland, a place where we have captured (are upon) the mountains ๐๏ธ (rocks = โgurโ)! So, โzaguriaโ or โzagoriaโ it means โhighlandโ, with the Albanian ๐ฆ๐ฑ dialectical phonetic shift rule o > u!

Great video for the motherland of our civilization, thank you!
Congratulations for the fantastic work of yours โคโค
Donโt waste your money in ๐ฌ๐ท
Thailand, Philippines or Caribbeans are cheaper and more fun.
Epic Video! Thanks for creating it, from A Greek Guy!
min 0:40 "….where Director Christopher Nolan brought epic back to life….?"
What i heared so far, he probably brought more of a broken back of a mountain to life then epic, but lets see…
