    I thought you were using Civ VI music in the background and I thought it was a nice touch.
    Then I realized I had Civ VI on in the background and forgot to turn it off. Oops.

      I wouldn't recommend playing that game due to the EULA change:
      ""The information we collect may include personal information such as your first and/or last name, e-mail address, phone number, photo, mailing address, geolocation, or payment information. In addition, we may collect your age, gender, date of birth, zip code, hardware configuration, console ID, software products played, survey data, purchases, IP address and the systems you have played on.

    0:42 Lobola is not practiced only by the Swazi.
    Zulu, Xhosa, Ndebele, Tsonga, Venda, Sotho, Tswana and Pedi people also practice lobola in South Africa .
    It’s also practiced in several African tribes. Basically almost all Bantu people

    • @comfydrives

      Victoria Adeyemi true, it can be paid through pretty much anything these days

    • @apie8
      @apie8 6 років тому

      I came here for this. It is basically agreed by the parents of the people getting married. It also differs from culture to culture. Some Xhosas tribes would "kidnap" the bride, then the parents would negotiate Labola (Some say Labolo) after payment of which they wedding can then take place.
      I put kidnap in "" because it is usually done ceremonially and the bride to be knows that it is going to happen.

    A guy I used to work with was in the military, and he was stationed somewhere in the northern part of South America (can't remember where). He loved hot sauces and spicy foods. A local made him a hot sauce, and he kept it in a plastic container. He didn't use it for a few days, but when he went to get it the sauce WAS EATING THROUGH THE PLASTIC.

      Camel9991 it actually hasn't gone through yet. The crazy dictator dude that runs FYROM rejected it, so they're probably going to be trying to find another solution for the next few decades.

    • @firelifeblizzard8782
      @firelifeblizzard8782 6 років тому +5

      Camel9991 yeah it's kinda crazy. Like it's the only thing left stopping them from joining the EU, and since they're landlocked they seriously need to join the EU. But the crazy dude who runs it is putting his own weird pride over the good of his people. It's messed up, but also so much of the country is on his side for some reason? So I guess they're living their best lives.

    • @varana
      @varana 6 років тому +12

      The language of Swaziland, siSwati, like all Bantu languages, heavily operates with prefixes. For names, the prefix is often written in lower case and only the stem of a proper noun is capitalised. Similarly for instance in the name of the Zulu language, isiZulu, or the official name of South Africa in isiNdebele, "iRiphabliki yeSewula Afrika".

    Thank you for making me aware of just another country I have never heard of before! (And no, I am no "stupid" American, but rather Swedish, so if you want to call me stupid please get my nationality straight). Trinidad and Tongo is quite an interesting country, it seems. I'm going to read the Wikipedia on it now. Just out of interest, do we have any Trinidadians here in the comments?
