Plot

The Nations is a comedic take on the travelogue, where two comedian hosts travel each of their respective nations, discussing which one is better on a variety of topics. Hosted by Sean Cullen (Canada) and Jarred Christmas (New Zealand), the series looks at strange facts and locations from each country, focusing on food, drinks, politics, etc. The interactive website that accompanies the digital series allows users to vote on the 'winner' of each episode, while also competing against other users by partaking in quizzes, games, and more, culminating in the final decision of which nation is the best. The winning nation has yet to be announced.
