    1:08 - seems like a great time to mention that this is where the term "maroon" came from, as in, "Tom Hanks plays the role of a man who gets marooned on a deserted island", or, "Gilligans Island is about a group of people who were marooned on an island while taking a 3 hour tour"

    So literally not a single word on the Scottish slaves/indentured servants sent there, nothing about how 70% + surnames are Scottish to this day, nothing about the St Andrew (the reason for the similarity to the Scotland flag). Nothing about how the Jamaican flag colours are one of the most unique flag colours in the world... I know its supposed to be "quick" but what a "whitewash".
