Long time fan here. I really love how you explain African matters.
Another strange similarity between CAR and Burkina Faso besides the shapes of the countries is the fact that as of December 2015, both are the only two nations in the African Union with suspended status - both due to internal conflicts.
Great job Barby! I really enjoy watching this channel and I hope you can keep making videos! This is the first time I've heard of geomagnetic anomalies, beforehand I thought they were fake, only covered by pseudoscience journals. So seeing as Chad is next, I'm assuming you're going to cover the whole "what to call it" thing, Chad/Tchad?
Finally! You need a schedule dude! Hope you wont lose anymore footage. :)
Great episode! And great animations :) I also have a small request for thee, Barby, I think it would be nice to include the givernment form in the Political Geography. For countries like China, Germany, or The UAE that might come in handy for some people :) Anyways, have a nice Christmas everyone!
Super vidéo !

Such a good episode you're really finding your host! I hope you continue to make cool show ideas so your channel can continue even when you do run out of countries. But in loving critique when, you put the countries over the larger maps I still honestly get confused sometimes and I spend a lot of time looking at maps I know my geography. I would honestly try to zoom in on the map a little bit (or a lot) more so you still get a cool geographical effect but it's more of a solitary color so you can easily differentiate the countries that are actually to display.

Love your videos, and I thought it might be worthwhile to say, when you do my country (The United Kingdom) It'd probably be best to split and do the 4 countries separately rather than all at once, in that we all kinda don't like to be grouped together as much, and the fact that if you do the UK as a whole, my side of the UK (England) will overshadow the other 3! Looking forward to the next video!

Have you ever heard of Ethiopia's Haile Salassie? He was Ethiopia's last Emperor before the Communist takeover in the 1970s, and despite some controversies was unlike Bokassa a real leader (along with modernizing internal stuff, he sent volunteer troops to help in the Korean War, even though his country had been hit hard by Mussolini in World War II a few years earlier). As a matter of fact, Haile Salassie gained so much respect that in the freakin 1950s he made state visits to Britain and even the United States (President Eisenhower received him at the White House, only the second African leader EVER to get that honor, other than one of Liberia's presidents). One of the most astonishing men I've read about in the 20th Century.

Love the videos, keep them coming! If you don't mind me pointing this out to you, there's a mistake you've made in several videos with the words 'nationalistic/national' and 'militaristic/military'. 'Nationalistic' refers to nationalism, the 'strong belief that the interests of a particular nation-state are of primary importance' (wikipedia). The adjective 'national' however, refers to the nation. So, a country has national borders, but nationalistic movements might be trying to expand these borders at the expense of their neighbours. Same thing with militarism: two countries cooperate militarily, but militaristic movements are putting their peace agreement in jeopardy. Happy holidays, and looking forward to more videos!
