I am from Benin, and he actually butchered most of the pronunciation ^^. But hey, it couldn't be helped, the pronunciation is quite difficult sometimes. Overall, it is a pretty good video, I really enjoyed watching it :)

I am Beninese, and I approve of this. I can't imagine the amount of work you put in. Congratulations

I wasn't sure with your style at the beginning but I'm starting to like it more. I definitely see the styles of vlogbrothers, CGP Grey, and wonder why. I'll have times in the video where you say something and I imagine the channel that would say that in their voice. All that being said you bring a lot to the table with genuine personality and just kept up the good work subscribers will come with time. Ps.

Thank you so much for these! The pronunciation, as well as the content, is so helpful. I teach middle school history, and we use these to supplement our geography studies/tests. That way students are learning about the countries whose names they are memorizing.

The channel had grown so much since the Albania vid. Good job!

I was thinking the same thing. And what country would that be?

When you are talking about west african countries (Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, Burkina Faso, Togo, Benin southern part of Nigeria and northern part of Cameroon) you should mention about that tribes are in language very close in these areas. And if you are going to talk about history in some cases you should look in to it as "when muslims concurred modern day "Mali" region some of the people from Ghana empire who refused to change their religion fled and mixed with the people of "forest" Btw sry for English. Not first language.
