Freedom it is not just an idea
But it is a routine that needs to be practiced amongst its peoples and governments and throughout the late 20th century
to the early 21st century
two countries have risen up in the world to give as much freedom to its peoples as it possibly can to
Amazingly powerful and most importantly respected countries that have allies from all over the world and being liked by many
Hey
Everybody what's going on Dave Wolper here and welcome back to FTD facts the channel where we talk about people cultures and places from all
Around the world and today, we're doing another one of our which country is better video now
Just let you guys know here on the channel
We don't actually have a firm belief of which country is better because here on FTD facts
We have done so many different videos about different countries
For example this video is based off of our Canada videos and our Germany videos
Which you guys should check out as well because we discover
What is so great about each country and we've learned that each country has its own story
But however for the fun of it we do like to look at these countries and see what is different and also what is the?
Same now before you begin this video is brought to you by Graham really calm
I'm gonna explain that a little bit more at the end of this video and before I get in this video
I want to know what is your favorite thing about your country, and if you guys are from this country
Let me know down there in the comment section below for my fellow Canadians out there. Let me know
I want to know where you guys are from me
We're Toronto boys actually Hamilton hoorah
So let's take a look at what both countries are what they stand for and what they do for themselves and for the rest of
The world now Germany it might be a country that is not as big as Canada
But does it really need to be not really
Because the country has a land size of three hundred and fifty-seven thousand one hundred and sixty eight kilometres square
With a population of 82 million one hundred and seventy five thousand seven hundred people
Ranking 16th in the world and when it comes to this population. They have approximately
227 people per kilometre Square and when it comes to Canada's land size it is
Huge it is the second largest land size in the world
For a country coming in with a land size of nine million nine hundred and eighty four thousand
670 square kilometres with a population of 35 million 150
1728 it actually ranks 38th in the world when it comes to population and as for its density of population
It is very small with only three point nine two people per square kilometers. That's right
We're really stretched out and as a matter of fact most people in Canada live near the American border
but now let's take a look at actually the
GDP of these countries how much do these countries actually make well Germany ranks fifth in the world with a total?
of three point nine eight zero
trillion dollars with a per capita of 40
1902 ranking 17th in the world now
Canada however has one point five to nine trillion dollars in GDP ranking
15th in the world and oddly enough its nominal GDP per capita
Which is forty thousand four hundred and nine which ranks 15th in the world, and I don't know how it actually beats Germany
It doesn't really make a lot of sense to me now when it comes to this
GDP the money comes from many different things from jobs to imports and exports and when it comes to Canadian money
It's called C. Ad or Canadian currency and
Actually a single dollar is called a loonie. That's crazy as for Germany
they actually use the euro and it's estimated at the time of this video that one Canadian dollar equals about
0.67 euros
However, just having GDP and population does not really give us a grand scheme of the differences between these two countries
We should probably look at the living costs and expenses
Now according to expat estate comm which compares cities and countries if you moved to Germany from Canada the cost in Canada for
Living would be twelve percent higher than a person in Germany when it comes to food as for housing
It's about 15 percent higher in Canada
Entertainment is about 16 percent higher in the country however
Transportation in Canada is about 8 percent lower than it is in Germany and when it comes to the prices of clothes
It's about 19 percent lower than it is in Germany however that being said personal care in Canada is
25 percent more than in Germany and to give you an idea how this kind of equates when you say go out for dinner in
Germany it'll cost
approximately 11 euros depending on where you go meanwhile in Canada the average amount is about 17 dollars and for the housing in Germany a
900 foot place in a normal area is about
1051 euros but in Canada it's about one thousand six hundred and twenty seven dollars for the same thing
Now keep in mind guys
This is just a ballpark figure because in certain areas of the country there are
Certain cities that it's more expensive to live in and when it comes to these particular
cities in Canada the most expensive places to live are Toronto Vancouver
Mississauga Calgary and Ottawa and in Germany the top five most expensive places are Munich Heidelberg, Frankfurt
Cologne and Dusseldorf which reminds me guys if we have anybody from those cities
Let me know down there in the comments section below because you know I'm curious when people pay for rent in those places right now
We've talked about how much the living cost is
But let's keep in mind a lot of our money is based off of
Sometimes the debt of our countries now according to the world debt clock at the time of releasing this video
Germany has approximately two point one trillion euros in debt making each citizen of Germany Oh
approximately
25,000 euros for the debt and when it comes to interest rates this equals to about 49
billion a year for Germany and for Canada the national debt sits at one point one trillion and each citizen's debt equals about
$30,000 with interest rates equaling 27 billion now to give you guys a good
Visual representation of how much that is if you were to take all that money of each country and put it into single dollar
forms and stack them on top of each other
Canada's national debt would equal
Sixty thousand three hundred and four miles high and would make it one quarter the way to the moon
Whereas Germany would be a hundred and sixty-eight thousand two hundred?
Forty-seven miles high and would make it approximately 70% of the way to the moon
That is probably the craziest visual
representation I've ever heard of in my life that really makes me aware of how much debt is not just in Germany button within my
country yeah now
Let's jump over and talk about the military because Canada has an available
manpower of about 60 million people where Germany has about
37 million and out of these numbers 13 million are fit for service in Canada and
Twenty-nine point five million are fit for service in Germany and currently Canada's active personnel sits roughly around
79 thousand people with Germany equaling a hundred and eighty thousand soldiers
Canada however has more soldiers in reserve equaling about
32,000 and Gemma knee has about thirty thousand as for the defense budget of Canada it sits at fifteen point five billion and
Germany's sits at thirty nine point two billion and surprisingly guys and
Unofficially Canada has four hundred and fourteen aircraft while Germany has six hundred and ninety eight
But however all of this is
Completely useless all these machines that the military has
Would be out of commission if they didn't have oil and when it comes to oil
Canada actually produces three point six billion barrels a single day with a hundred and seventy-one billion barrels in reserve
Germany has forty eight thousand eight hundred and thirty barrels produced a day
With about a hundred billion in reserve and when we're talking about oil. We should probably look at the imports and exports because Canada
exports a lot of crude petroleum
But when we talk about Germany it exports one point three two trillion dollars in goods
being third in exports
but it also ranked third and
imports
equaling one point zero five trillion dollars in goods now eleven percent of that is cars with four point three percent being
Vehicle parts and most of these vehicles are usually delivered a majority to China and the United Kingdom
But also the United States as well now Canada is more of an importing country with three hundred ninety nine million dollars in imports
ranking ninth in the world and exporting
387 billion putting it at 12th in the world now when it comes to their
Exports the biggest amount is actually cars in car parts
but about ten percent of it which is about the second biggest of all their imports is crude petroleum and
98% of crude petroleum goes to the United States now in terms of health care
Canada is considered a
socialized system in which the money for the healthcare is gained from
Taxes from its citizens now Germany works a little bit differently because it has what you like to call sickness funds
They're basically a form of health insurance, but for people who make under fifty thousand euros a year
They are put into a public healthcare system
Where pretty much everyone pays through a joint employer and employee system and when it comes to the budget of these countries
Germany spends about eleven point three percent of its GDP on its health care and Canada spends about ten point three percent of its GDP
However the life expectancy of a Canadian citizen is approximately eighty three point eight years and the life
Expectancy of a German citizen is eighty three point one years now
We're going to talk about education but to give you guys an idea of how they spend their money
We're gonna equate this into US dollars in order for us to see how much they spend on a single student in terms of
Education according to the OECD
Germany spends approximately eight thousand five hundred forty six dollars per student on education with math
Performances coming in at five hundred and fourteen and reading performances being four hundred ninety nine
But Canada in terms of US dollars spends approximately nine thousand two hundred and fifty six dollars per student
with math equating to five hundred and twenty points and
Reading equaling five hundred and fourteen now when it comes to the education system
They have some similarities
But they also have some differences for example in Canada
Everything from high school and before is considered free education that is paid through the taxes
But when you go to university or colleges that is paid out of your own pocket however keep in mind
there is government grants and of course sponsorships that one can earn to help reduce the amount to pay for tuition fees and
unfortunately when it comes to international students sometimes they pay more than a student
That's within the country now going across the pond to Germany believe it or not when it comes to their tuition fees
No matter if they're in like grade school or they're in university
It's all considered free and besides the different aspect of its universities being free compared to Canada when it also comes to its international
Students they get free education as well
So what do you think about Germany and Canada sure there are many things that one country may have
Over the other and there are many
aspects of a country that we might have missed which reminds us if there's anything that we missed in this video that you love about
