Sign up for a FREE TripleTen career consultation with my link: 🐇 Which country is the “land of the rabbits“? 🇩🇪 Why does Germany have so many different names? 🇳🇱 Where do the Dutch actually live? 🇭🇷 What links Croatians and neckties? These curious questions answered and many more as I attempt to explain the origin of every European country's name in English! UPDATE: I have removed the section of this video covering Ukraine, Belarus and Russia.
