South China Sea dispute explained

The South China Sea is one of the most infamous territorial conflicts in the world, involving six governments (China, Vietnam, Malaysia, Brunei, the Philippines & Taiwan), as well as plenty of external actors (United States, India, Japan, Australia, etc.). Focus point of the dispute are the many tiny islands, reefs and rocks which are scattered across the South China Sea, including the Spratlys, Paracels, Pratas & more. These islands are the key to controlling this vital region defined by strategically important trading routes, natural resources like oil and gas, as well as the geopolitical rivalry between the USA and China. In this video we explore what is behind the South China Sea dispute and find answers to the following questions: Why is it important and valuable to all these nations? Who is involved and why? And what does this conflict mean for the future of regional and global peace? ____________________ Consider supporting this channel on Patreon: Patreon:   / politicswithpaint   ____________________ Music: Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 (by Liszt) (YouTube Audio-library) Fur Elise (by Beethoven) (YouTube Audio-library) Opium (by Kevin MacLeod) (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/b...
