    No but seriously, wouldn't it be weird if Senegal was still joined with Mali? They'd have a coast again. Oh and I was going to fire ken but realized I needed him to mail out YOUR orders from www.geographynow.com! Thanks for the support guys!

      The Phillipines was conquered by the Spaniards in the 16th century so Spanish is integrated in Tagalog. This is why alot of Filipinos have Spanish last names like Garcia, Santos, Reyes, Bautista and more.

    Hey Barby, just a quick question: Are you gonna do an episode on the Sovereign Military Order of Malta? I know they technically don't really have any land, but they're still recognized by the UN, so that would probably be a super interesting episode if you made it :)

    There is this legend that Mansan Musa, after his pilgrimage to Mecca and when he was coming back he used to give way gold to people throughout the journey. And this give away created a negative effect on the ecomonies that he passed through coz he gave away so much gold that there was surplus and the value of the metal was devalued (similar to what happened when Spanish found the Silver Mines in South America)

    "Address" as a *verb* is pronounced "uh dress" (like "a dress"). As a *noun,* it has *both* pronunciations, but it's pronounced the same as the verb when it refers to a formal public speech, e.g. the Gettysburg Address. ;-)
