-Once upon a time, -the world was one large island. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:56 | |
-It's the truth. | 0:00:56 | 0:00:58 | |
-At one time, all the countries were -squashed together in one big lump. | 0:00:58 | 0:01:04 | |
-There was only one country -on the map. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
-To be honest, it was easy -to draw a picture of it. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:11 | |
-The people who drew maps loved it. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:14 | |
-If you wanted to go sailing, -you'd never get lost. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:18 | |
-All you had to do was sail -towards any land mass... | 0:01:18 | 0:01:22 | |
-..and you'd be home. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:24 | |
-There was no such thing -as discovering new countries. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:30 | |
-Everything was on one island. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:32 | |
-This happened at a time many -people know as once upon a time. | 0:01:47 | 0:01:52 | |
-Now then, once upon a time... | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
-..a lot of people -had a very stupid idea. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:02 | |
-But we'll talk about that later. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:04 | |
-You see, this large island -was a wonderful place. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:17 | |
-There were areas covered in jungle. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
-Everyone called them... -well, jungles. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
-There were areas covered in snow. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:29 | |
-There were areas -where it always rained. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:36 | |
-There were areas -where it never rained. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
-The island had every animal, -bird and insect. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:47 | |
-They could wander -wherever they wanted to go. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:51 | |
-Everywhere was easy to reach. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:56 | |
-All you had to do was walk... | 0:02:56 | 0:02:59 | |
-..or run if you were very fit. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:02 | |
-Soon, you'd reach -your chosen destination. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:05 | |
-You'd think that living here -would make someone happy. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:13 | |
-But it didn't. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:14 | |
-Some people had no idea -how to be happy... | 0:03:15 | 0:03:19 | |
-..even on the happiest day -full of happiness. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:23 | |
-They'd say, "Oh, it's too happy. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:27 | |
-"I'd like happiness -to be less happy." | 0:03:27 | 0:03:32 | |
-The people who lived on this -large island were no different. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:37 | |
-For some, it was too hot. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:47 | |
-For others, it was too cold. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:53 | |
-Some didn't like the areas -that were too wet. | 0:03:57 | 0:04:01 | |
-Others didn't like the areas -that were too dry. | 0:04:02 | 0:04:06 | |
-In some places, -people would say it was too flat. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:13 | |
-Others would say -it was too mountainous. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:18 | |
-Too many mountains. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:23 | |
-Too much snow. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:25 | |
-Too many trees. | 0:04:27 | 0:04:29 | |
-Too much sand. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:32 | |
-This island had many -kings and queens. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:45 | |
-Kings and queens are good -at living in castles... | 0:04:49 | 0:04:53 | |
-..and having lots of money. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:56 | |
-But they're not as good -at being sensible. | 0:04:56 | 0:04:59 | |
-The reason for this -is that everyone does... | 0:04:59 | 0:05:03 | |
-..what kings and queens -ask them to do. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:05 | |
-If a king wants anything, -no matter how silly it is... | 0:05:12 | 0:05:16 | |
-..no-one replies, "Do you know what, -I think that's a bad idea." | 0:05:16 | 0:05:20 | |
-If they did, the king would -throw them down a dungeon forever. | 0:05:21 | 0:05:26 | |
-And so, a king or queen -never think they have a bad idea. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:32 | |
-Well, now then... | 0:05:32 | 0:05:34 | |
-..we're getting close to the part -where lots of people had a bad idea. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:40 | |
-Once a year, all the kings -and queens on the island... | 0:05:45 | 0:05:50 | |
-..would meet for a party. | 0:05:51 | 0:05:53 | |
-They did this -right in the middle of the island. | 0:05:56 | 0:05:59 | |
-They came from all over to eat food -and drink lakes of royal drinks. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:07 | |
-They'd tell each other about -all the great ideas they'd had... | 0:06:07 | 0:06:12 | |
-..how many diamonds -they had in their crowns... | 0:06:12 | 0:06:16 | |
-..and how large their thrones were. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:19 | |
-But this year -was a little bit different. | 0:06:20 | 0:06:23 | |
-You see, -one of the queens wasn't happy... | 0:06:23 | 0:06:27 | |
-..even on the one day of the week -when all the kings and queens... | 0:06:28 | 0:06:32 | |
-..were having their wonderful party -on such a monumental day. | 0:06:32 | 0:06:37 | |
-She was sad and angry. | 0:06:37 | 0:06:40 | |
-"What's wrong with you, Queen?" -asked one of the kings. | 0:06:40 | 0:06:45 | |
-She probably had a name... | 0:06:45 | 0:06:47 | |
-..but kings and queens -never ask people for their names. | 0:06:48 | 0:06:51 | |
-They're too important -and rich to do that. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:56 | |
-"Where I live is too hot," -she complained. | 0:06:56 | 0:07:02 | |
-"I can't go out during the day -and I can't sleep at night. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:06 | |
-"Why couldn't it be colder?" | 0:07:06 | 0:07:08 | |
-"That's nothing," replied the king. | 0:07:09 | 0:07:12 | |
-"Where I live is cold all day. -It's even colder at night. | 0:07:13 | 0:07:17 | |
-"I hate living there. I'd like to -live somewhere that's always hot." | 0:07:17 | 0:07:22 | |
-"You could always move," -said another king. | 0:07:22 | 0:07:26 | |
-He was listening -while waiting for his jelly. | 0:07:26 | 0:07:29 | |
-"Move?" replied the king and queen, -"Never." | 0:07:30 | 0:07:34 | |
-Then they started discussing -why they should never move. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:39 | |
-The weather should move! | 0:07:40 | 0:07:43 | |
-Another king joined -the conversation. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:50 | |
-"I hate mountains." | 0:07:50 | 0:07:52 | |
-Another queen said, "I don't -like animals with long necks." | 0:07:53 | 0:07:58 | |
-Another shouted, "It always rains." | 0:07:59 | 0:08:02 | |
-Soon, everyone was arguing -and complaining. | 0:08:02 | 0:08:07 | |
-If that wasn't enough, -one king thought... | 0:08:07 | 0:08:10 | |
-..this was a great opportunity -for him to have his own way. | 0:08:10 | 0:08:14 | |
-He shouted, "I think it's time -the island had a name. | 0:08:14 | 0:08:19 | |
-"It should be named after me - -King Aneurin Wyn Adal V." | 0:08:20 | 0:08:25 | |
-Well, the place erupted. -What a mess. | 0:08:26 | 0:08:30 | |
-They all wanted the island -named after themselves. | 0:08:30 | 0:08:36 | |
-France, America, Spain, Wales. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:40 | |
-This is when -the silly idea happened. | 0:08:42 | 0:08:45 | |
-The kings and queens decided... | 0:08:46 | 0:08:49 | |
-..that they didn't want -to live on an island... | 0:08:49 | 0:08:53 | |
-..with another king or queen. | 0:08:53 | 0:08:55 | |
-Do you know what they did? | 0:08:55 | 0:08:57 | |
-They sent a royal message -to the people saying... | 0:08:58 | 0:09:02 | |
-.."We're moving. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:04 | |
-"If you want to come, -meet me at the castle at eight." | 0:09:04 | 0:09:09 | |
-"Move? Where to?" asked the people -who lived on the island. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:16 | |
-Everyone who liked hot weather -went to one castle. | 0:09:17 | 0:09:22 | |
-Everyone who liked cold weather -went to another castle. | 0:09:23 | 0:09:26 | |
-Everyone who liked giraffes -and gorillas went to this castle. | 0:09:26 | 0:09:31 | |
-Everyone who liked deserts -went to that castle. | 0:09:31 | 0:09:34 | |
-Soon, all the people were at -the castle they preferred. | 0:09:34 | 0:09:38 | |
-Then, at the request -of the kings and queens... | 0:09:39 | 0:09:42 | |
-..they built a million ships. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:45 | |
-When they were ready, they sawed -the land around the castle... | 0:09:45 | 0:09:51 | |
-..and as they did this, -land broke away from the island. | 0:09:51 | 0:09:55 | |
-When it started breaking, -they threw ropes around the ships. | 0:10:02 | 0:10:08 | |
-The ships pulled the small islands -away from each other. | 0:10:08 | 0:10:12 | |
-The people waved to one another -as the islands were pulled apart. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:23 | |
-But the kings and queens didn't. | 0:10:23 | 0:10:26 | |
-They were still angry -with one another. | 0:10:26 | 0:10:29 | |
-When they were happy -with their position... | 0:10:34 | 0:10:37 | |
-..they cut the ropes -and the islands stopped moving. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:41 | |
-They're still in the same place -to this day. | 0:10:49 | 0:10:52 | |
-You can see them all on a world map. | 0:10:54 | 0:10:56 | |
-That's the thing about silly ideas. | 0:10:57 | 0:11:00 | |
-Sometimes, they work. | 0:11:00 | 0:11:03 | |
