I'm Black Canadian, and Sierra-Leone is my first name. My mom named me after Sierra-Leone because it was the first country to repatriate enslaved Africans from the US (1815), which is where our family is originally from in North America. A couple years ago I took a DNA test to find what African ethnic groups I belonged to, and I ended up being part Sierra-Leonean! I had a good happy cry about it; it felt like I had been honoured with my ancestors name this whole time without knowing it.

Paul, I would just like to say thank you for making this episode from the deepest part of my heart. Ever since I found this channel during high school, I have been waiting patiently for the day until you cover the Nigeria and Sierra Leonean Episodes. This current episode about Salone is very deep to me, as it deals with a part of my family history that unfortunately, I have not learned so much about. By making this episode, and now being able to watch it in my Sophmore year of college, I not only feel extreme gratitude but also feel like I know more about my deceased mother's home. I sincerely appreciate it 🇳🇬🇸🇱

Fun fact: when Miss Universe was held in Manila last 2016, Sierra Leone's representative was well loved by everyone. Although she didn't get into any semifinalist post, she eventually became a model. We also heard about the sad story of their representative in the 2018 edition were she arrived late in Bangkok. She was allowed to represent Sierra Leone the following year, and even wore an evening gown made by a Filipino designer. We love them, and we do hope someday their representative will be crowned. P.S. Art is such a gentle giant. I wanna see more Mikael.

Glad to see you mentioned about the tie with Bangladesh. I teach in a Bangladeshi university and find students from Sierra Leone, flying all the way to study in Bangladesh. Bangladeshi NGOs also have operation in Sierra Leone. Just one clarification regarding Bengali and Bangladeshi. Bengali is the ethnicity and Bengalis live predominantly in Bangladesh, of course, but they can be seen in India, arguably Myanmar, and many other countries as expatriates. On the contrary, Bangladeshi is the term used to mean the people from Bangladesh. In your script you said Bengali a couple of times to mean Bangladeshi. Not a very big mistake (some may feel otherwise though), but I thought, it's good to bring to your notice. Cheers.

Most of the black loyalist lived in New York then the revolution happened and the Brits promised freedom if you fought for them. Most moved to Birchtown, Nova Scotia. Some guy, something Peter kept asking for their own land in Africa. British abolishtionist (forgot his name) who was a navy Capitan helps them sail to their colony of Sierra Leone. They established Freetown and were a port city where drunken sailors would go to spend the night. They sold mainly rum and did very well for themselves.
I'm an Indian Bengali. I knew that Sierra Leone made Bengali one of the Official languages in order to give respect to the Bangladeshi peacekeepers, but never knew that a small community of Bengali people actually live in Sierra Leone.

My favorite Geography Now episodes are the ones on small, more obscure countries that no ones talks about.
Awesome 😊, thanks for putting us on the map

I started watching since the Barbados episode and its crazy to think that barbs was the only one running the show back then. look at how far they have gotten together. I am so happy for you mate.
Weren't some the freed black settlers in Sierra Leone actually from Nova Scotia Canada?

Some Black Americans fought for the British during the US revolutionary war so after the US won they were resettled in Nova Scotia by the British. Later a big group of them moved to Sierra Leone because of bad conditions in Nova Scotia. There are still some of of their ancestors living in Nova Scotia.

Yes that’s true! My family are Sierra Leonean, and my dad’s maternal side were from Nova Scotia.
I'm doing a geography project on Sierra Leone and I absolutely NEED this.
What I LOVE about Geography now is they focus on the good things about each country, and makes me so curious to visit those countries.

Bengali is a language of special status in Sierra Leone.... because of the role of Bangladeshi UN peace keepers in that country ❤️🖤

The way they say goodbye "Ta ta" which the same as my aged aunts used in the UK when I was a child. Nice to know it has survived somewhere
Wonderful job explaining the Geography, and those animations always impress me! Can't wait for Singapore!
Hallelujah, finally you moving so fastly & videos are coming fastly. Thanks Barb! ❤👍
As a Sierra Leonean living in the country I found this documentary very educative. A lots of grounds covered in unfolding our history, topography, foods, culture etc. Sierra Leone is a multicultural and diverse society. We do have our challenges as a country but we're mostly defined by our tolerance and love. You're all welcome to Land of Milk and Honey.

This is the most interesting and exciting video I’ve ever watched. You guys made geography sound so cool. Thanks so much for making this video. The facts are so on point . Feel so proud to be a Sierra Leonean!
Hello! I'm Brazilian and I really like the channel. I'm improving my English with your great videos. They are very interesting! Congratulations.👏👏👏
Well crafted episode... actually one of the best episode.
Damn, Idris Elba lookin smooth for his age. What's the secret man?
Thank you very much for this wonderful video

Gary Harlow "dollar store Steve Irwin" 😂😂😂
Think you've got the wrong National Railway Museum there bud. That's definitely the NRM in York, England. It's a fine museum, but it's not the one you were looking for. 😂
Thanks for a very good video, well researched.
This is so on point... well-researched. Thank you from Sierra Leone 🇸🇱
Whenever I watch GN videos, I feel small. Like the world is HUGE and there’s so many people. You only really know the people you come in contact with etc. But holy crap.
Excited for this video, good to see a more jovial Sierra Leone after the Civil War and Blood Diamonds conflict and the devastating Ebola Virus.

it was a thriving country before all the things you mention I was born there and now live in Europe I have travelled to over 50 countries and been to every continent and Sierra Leone is still on the top of my list. The people and the natural beauty you will not get that anywhere else in the world.

Leones***
High we exalt thee, realm of the free; Great is the love we have for thee; Firmly united ever we stand, Singing thy praise, O native land. We raise up our hearts and our voices on high, The hills and the valleys re-echo our cry; Blessing and peace be ever thine own, Land that we love, our Sierra Leone.

I have a nice story with the large butterfly: when I was in elementary school we went to a butterfly house in my city and when I was just standing somewhere to see some of them, one of these gigantic butterfly landed on my shoulder and stayed there for bout 15 min. That thing was bigger than my head, it was really cool.
Really appreciated from Sierra Leone 🇸🇱. Well edited episode 👌💯
I absolutely love these videos 👏 well done do not change a thing.
