Svalbard! A beautiful Arctic Wonderland! It’s absolutely unique in one way, and it’s not the fact that there are probably more polar bears than there are people here. It’s that you don’t need a visa to live there. What? How? Watch this video, sort of documentary to find out, and pack your bags so you can go to Svalbard for your vacations this summer. Maybe. Depends. Conditions apply.

DISCLAIMER : History is complicated, and this video is an oversimplified overview of the complicated history of Svalbard. Take this YouTube video with a pinch of salt. However, I would really appreciate it if you point out the inaccuracies in this video, should they exist, in the comments so that I can also learn where I went wrong.
