So Apparently Jammeh DID finally step down but....you know....not before taking millions of taxpayer money with him before he fled the country. *Shooting star* THE MORE YOU KNOW!!!
Concerning the shape of the Gambia, you should have talked about the fact that many European countries colonizing Africa didn't want to bother with land, because they only wanted gold. And where can we find gold in huge quantity in Africa? Close to rivers. And that's the main reason why the Gambia is shaped this way, because the British empire just wanted gold mines, and a river to carry all that stolen gold to the Atlantic Ocean! ;)
Caligula yes, please stop, stay home! Afrikans will sort out Afrika. At no point in history since colonialism and the great brainwashing, have Europeans allowed that to happen. So literally everything you think that Europeans are fixing, they caused in the first place... including coups, wars, devaluation of currencies, dumbing down of people, training soldiers to kill their own country men since they are militia and not army for patriotism or protection purpose... Europe has always been about themselves, even your NGOs (giving aid which creates dependency), missionaries (exchanging holy books for our minerals)... just stop and please stay home, let’s see how that works out for Europe. FACT: France would be a 3rd world economy within a decade without the wealth it still depends on from West Afrikan nations (Jacques Chirac, Former President of France quoted).
@@altersee7443 Yes it was a vasal state but it totally depended on the Commonwealth. It was something like today's authonomous regions in many coutries.
I subscribed to your channel for sharing geography of The Gambia. Which I love most. To see people talking about The Gambia in such a right useful way. I'm Gambian citizen but I'm currently living in Algeria.
Nice! Finally the video about Gambia. I was asked by our airline company (Travel Service) to fly to Banjul on 19.1. and I really had to search it on Google maps. I enjoyed the view from cockpit during the longest and lowest approach ever flown by me.
NICK Turkey causes drama with Greece because of Constantistanbul Turkey invaded Serbia Bosnia Bulgaria etc... Turkey invaded Cyprus Turkey genocided the Armenians and encourages the Azeri's to fight Turkey shot down a Russian plane 0_0 I can see a pattern
I just had a geography test at school and it involved The Gambia and when I came home I got a notification about this vid 😂 wish I saw it before, you're videos are extremely helpful! keep up the great work x
Was anyone else surprised he hadn't heard of Thomas Cook, an airline run by a global travel agent that has been running in one form or another since 1841?
Love all the way from sweden, but my family are from Senegal, Mali and guinea Bissau but I love gambia, and have huge respect for Gambian. Also all the other countries in Africa. And I hope to visit soon.
I binged watched all videos of Geography Now after you guys where featured on a Chilean news website and now I never miss an episode, especially African countries which I feel I had a very vague, even if above average understanding (like I pretty much knew where everyone is and maybe which colony you where a part of and if I'm lucky I can identify your flag) so these videos have been very helpful in getting to actually know the countries. I'm even planning on a big African trip in the future (it's a huge continent, it needs planning) thanks to all the beautiful scenery you've shown in your videos *anyway, tl;dr: I love geography now videos more than anything on youtube right now* and that's saying a lot
Camila Stefanie Planning and doing research for a big trip in Africa is good, but don't make very detailed or tightly scheduled plans, because travel there can be really unpredictable. From my experience, East and Southern Africa are a relative breeze to travel due to having more visitors (avoid Dar es Salaam though). I like West Africa more, but in some places it is a real headache for backpackers.
jameson44k this is tbh the first time I really do some planning when traveling. I'm more of the figure it out as you go type of traveller. I mean, my last big trip was in Europe and all I actually planned was when I was arriving and leaving and the one summer festival. thanks for the tips though (: I've been told before to steer clear of Dar es Salaam so I guess I will
Camila Stefanie Yeah, for me the main problem with Dar is that for such a crowded city there's very little to see and it really deserves its reputation for crime.
He still has to make many Episodes before he reaches I. Georgia Germany Ghana Greece Grenada Guatemala Guinea Guinea-Bissau Guyana Haiti Honduras Hungary
He mentions it in the Senegal episode, which is almost three times longer than this one. He's really stepped up his game with the work and content he puts into the videos now, looking back they were relatively sparse
@ I've barely, if ever, heard natives say they are from "The Gambia". It's literally always "I'm from Gambia." The "The" is so formal and barely recognized informally.
even so, Jacob Kettler was still a subject of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Also, he was literally the best of all the European colonizers that had ever come to Africa, both for the local population as for the home country
It's "The" Gambia, Not Gambia, "The" Gambia, You gotta put a "The" before Gambia, And it's Gambia, Not Zambia, Not Gambit, Not Get-bia as in Bob SaGet-Bia, Its The Gambia
Respect Gambia from Bangladesh. 🇧🇩 Your National team footballer Nuha Marong now playing in a Bangladeshi club Bashundhara Kings. He is a very good striker
Thomas Cook were a travel agent that specialised in package holidays to Europe who branched out into doing flights themselves. They are fairly common in the uk for flights to the likes of Spain and Greece.
I think it'd be Netherlands=!Nederland (both start with N though - and is it just me or do many Dutch & English phrases seem to come down to the same letters when abbreviated?)
He just gave a brief introduction about the Gambia, if you want to know more about the Gambia. Come for a visit. I am a proud Gambian I love my country 🇬🇲
I learned about The Gambia by watching the Misha Meyers UA-cam videos. He's a German veterinarian who runs a clinic. Very interesting to see his clientele and their issues. especially mangoworms. I love the dogs of The Gambia!
I've been binge watching your Africa videos, and just got to The Gambia, and realized that you don't talk about the flags any more! I kinda miss that feature. But I really, really love your channel.
Yeh, Thomas Cook started out as a travel agents when a Mr Thomas Cook of the city Leicester started organising excursions by rail. It became a huge travel agents and bought it's own airline in order to offer competitive package holidays.

The Gambia, officially the Republic of The Gambia, is a country in West Africa. The Gambia is often referred to as 'The Smiling Coast'. It is the smallest country within mainland Africa, and is surrounded by Senegal, except for its western coast on the Atlantic Ocean. The Gambia is situated on both sides of the lower reaches of the Gambia River, the nation's namesake, which flows through the centre of The Gambia and empties into the Atlantic Ocean. It has an area of 10,689 square kilometres (4,127 sq mi) with a population of 1,857,181 as of the April 2013 census. Banjul is the Gambian capital and the country's largest metropolitan area. The largest cities are Serekunda and Brikama.
Awesome video! As a Gambian-American, I’ve learned so much from this. One thing I would add though is Dawda Jawara (my great uncle btw) was the first president of The Gambia and is largely responsible for gaining independence for The Gambia ☺️
its quite popular name of boy. the most popular male name however is Giorgi. David (short version Dato) is also popular. my name is rare I don't know anybody of my age called Nugzar.
Nah Georgia comes from Gurgen < old kings of georgia were mostly Gurgens which meant wolfman, so Middle easterners started calling them Gurgistan, Wolfland, which later became Gurjistan. and in the west Georgia because name Gurgen turned to George after Christianity.
Egypt: Our river is the lifeline of our country!
The Gambia: Our river IS our country!

The Gambia, officially the Republic of The Gambia, is a country in West Africa. The Gambia is often referred to as 'The Smiling Coast'. It is the smallest country within mainland Africa, and is surrounded by Senegal, except for its western coast on the Atlantic Ocean. The Gambia is situated on both sides of the lower reaches of the Gambia River, the nation's namesake, which flows through the centre of The Gambia and empties into the Atlantic Ocean. It has an area of 10,689 square kilometres (4,127 sq mi) with a population of 1,857,181 as of the April 2013 census. Banjul is the Gambian capital and the country's largest metropolitan area. The largest cities are Serekunda and Brikama.
the new gambian president is a british guy who was a security guard at a hardware store entrance

OK so he had a job to fund his education. Why is that a big deal?
well from being a security guard to president of a country is a big achievement
+Elijah Pisani He went from business man to president. You're implying being a security guard is his only credential.
why are you trying to annoy me?

You probably are right,but I don't think everybody is negative about Russia
+Erivanci And they would be quite correct.
No one thinks that Azerbaijan is good and Armenia is bad, we are neutrald towards both. or I should say we think that they're both good.
Epic Hans, You are wrong Armenia is an ally of Russia, therefore they are our enemy
They are allies but this is a result of complicated political things that is constantly happening. In reality people from all countries get along

I wonder aswell, considering that Germans have a over 2000 years old History
