Like cmon I grew up in Fiji, I played on its field, I ate the food that grew from it’s Earth. I am Fijian and forever will be one. And as for your racist comment, you dare to say that Indians made Fiji a better place, have you forgotten that Fiji and India were both under British rule. Indians did not make Fiji a better place they did not stand alone they had the support from its native (not all of them but a majority of them). We Fijians together made Fiji a better place. So stop being so arrogant and have a nice day😁.

@@CellularShenenigans Interesting.. what was the contribution of your ancestors to fiji as indentured labor ? are you more mad at the british and proud of your indian heritage or you glad the british got your ancestors there and glad you don't live in india anymore ? from your comment it feels like you want to be distanced from india and be known as fijian and not indian ? sorry just curious and fascinated by that as i seldom come across communities that want to distance from their ancestoral identity unless its as a result of a abrahamic faith converstion to islam or christinity in which case you are expected to reject your past religion but here it seems like the indians in fiji still practise their indian faith perhaps ? would appreciate if you can throw some light into your identity. thanks.

​@@suerayss Well my ancestors like the ancestors of most other indo-fijians were builders, farmers,and sugar mill workers. And yes I do feel glad that the british got my ancestors out of India, however: yes it wasn't the civil way to do it nor was it fair since the majority of indentured labourers couldn't read of write, and the contracts they signed were written in English. Why am I glad? because I wouldn't have existed if my ancestors from both my maternal and paternal side did not leave india. Not only I but my parents and my grandparents and my great grandparents would have never existed if my ancestors did not leave india. This would be a long as comment( ironically this will definitely be a long comment but I'll try my best to keep it short) if I were to write all the reasons for these circumstances but.... you can find out why on the internet by just learning about the caste system of india( Which a large majority of the indentured labourers would have not cared about after living with people from the different regions of india who had different beliefs). And yes I do want to be known as a Fijian rather than an indian because the culture of the two countries is different. Think of it like a diverging path where the road splits in the end and leads to two very different cities. And while a large majority of the the indo-fijians believe in hinduism that does not change the fact that there is large cultural difference that separates us fijians of indian descent from Indians from india. This is largely due to the fact that after serving their 5 years of paid labour the indians who had been brought to Fiji by the British decided to stay and there were even indians( those from the Gujarat and Punjab region) who came after the indentured labour system had been abolished. The 20th century had a drastic effect on all countries with the advancement of science and technology and of course both the World Wars. The influence of western, pacifica, chinese and indian culture definitely had a drastic effect on the girmitiyas of Fiji and the Native Fijians, from what they ate to how they dressed, to the style of music that they played. I identify myself as a Fijian because of the history of my ancestors. I've grown up in a community of people from different ancestral backgrounds who value Humanity, humility and humbleness over anything else and even though we might not be the richest country I assure you the Fijians have a big heart and are always friendly. Fijians those native and those who came afterwards and those who are yet to be born will always stand united under the noble banner blue.

Certainly money and conditions are a factor, there is also the element of wider service, ie the UK forces deploy quite widely both in theatre of operations and normal postings.

Nice episode once again. It's simply amazing to hear all of this information from countries I know nothing about. Even the episodes from other nearby European countries have included really interesting and little known facts and I was surprised to hear that the episode about Estonia was featured in some piece of online news. And now, the waiting is almost over, we finally get to see the Finland episode, something I've been waiting for a long time!

Ahh nice, love how you chose Fiji to follow Australia. I'm Australian-Fiji/Indian. My dad aussie my mum and her family born in Ba Fiji, but they have Indian traditions.

Dude .. you rock ... very good accurate information of Fiji (my home country). Thanks for sharing.

Awesome video. New Zealand is definitely Fiji's best friend. Going to Fiji for a holiday as a Kiwi is like how Aussies go to Bali in Indonesia.

Barby, about "Tonga". You've pronounced it Tong-ga, and I suppose that's common (wikipedia gives it as an alternative), but the Tongan language doesn't have the hard G sound; the Tongans I know say the "ng" like in English "singing", not like "finger".

Omg, bula from Fiji. As I laughed and enjoyed every bit of this video. Thank you for putting an amazing piece on my homeland. Vinaka Geography Now Team 🇫🇯

very interesting i really enjoyed the way you present it!

4:58 WOW!!! that purple-flowered tree is the same I have in my front door, Lagerstroemia indica, and Im from Argentina.

this is great and I love that you mentioned rotuma a few times it would be amazing if you could do a video on Rotuma by itself, the "Mamanuka" islands are actually the Mamanuca islands which is pronounced Mamanutha just fyi!

Awesome video. Very educational. Great work man.

Fun indeed to watch. Thank You !

The Truman Show, Jim Carrey, I always remember Fiji for that :D

Fiji are too good at Rugby 7’s from a Brit 🇬🇧 What an achievement. Small population but so unbelievably talented, amazing 😍

Very very well researched. I'm impressed.

Great work man, I have to get my kids to watch your channel so they can learn about countries in a fun away. Cheers. 🍻👍

Because Finland is extremely dangerous and may attack at any time, so we must deal with it.

Did u ever tasted it? If no... U r wrong....☺

That was great. Love your style. Really fun and funny.

Visited in March 2020, just before Fiji went into lockdown. The beaches are pure heaven, the people awesome, very similar to beautiful Vanuatu. Tried kava, which is quite mild. Would highly recommend to people who love warm paradises and beaches

Proud to be a Fijian 🇫🇯🇫🇯

Discovered I was part Fijian a few months ago. :)

Have lived in Fiji for 8 years now. Pretty good video! Only critique was the bizarre spelling for the Mananuca's on the image for the island group. Well done, thanks! Now I have a video I can send to my folks back in my country of origin that summarizes things quite nicely.

hello from Fiji islands. we are proud FIJIANS.winning gold medal in Olympics 2020 in rugby 7s again after 2016.

Awesome video! Just FYI Fiji is actually a cross between Melanesia and Polynesia. The Eastern part of Fiji and the outer islands have strong ties with Tonga. Other than that I think you represented my people very well

When I was in FIJI i had 1 litre of Kava in one night......I have never been sicker before in my entire life. Also just a heads up, Kava literally tastes like dirt mixed with dishwater.

Good job on this one Barbz!

Thank you for doing an episode on a melanesian country! Hopefully you can do Papua New Guinea in a future episode of yours!

I'm from Australia and i have noticed a small politcol rivalry between Fiji and Australia... due to the coup and other minor issues... overall i beleive our nations get along well and our peopls get along famously but politics is a differant story. :)

I guess that's why they always say, 'Politics aside', we're all humans because humans invented politics and politicians are humans, lol _____ I am finishing my degree at an Australian University and thanks to your government for offering me and many of my country men scholarships. PEACE

lol, Gao is Gau and Mamanuka is Mamanuca, thanks for sharing Fiji to the world :-)

I love my Fijians! 👍🏾. Do more on the Pacific Islands like mine Tonga 🇹🇴 🙂 thank you for your videos

Bula from Fiji! Just watched this and yes you definitely summed everything up! Awesome video! I’m actually Rotuman 🤗
