Why it works
A silent 0:00–0:10.7 consequence image sets stakes before the narration widens to a regional map and states the central contrast at 0:33. The map then reveals boundaries, hatching, arrows and labels in sync with successive claims: 143 measured internal visual steps, about 24 picture changes per minute. The automatic two-shot count understates these visible graphic changes.
