OH CRAP!!! I JUST REALIZED THE MISTAKE I MADE AT 2:13!! I accidentally named all the Parishes "St John!!" LOL AHhh that's what I get for not reviewing everything carefully! IF you want to know the names of all the parishes they are (In clockwise order) St. Johns, St George, St. Peter, St Philip, St Paul and St Mary.
PLEASE MAKE MORE OF THESE VIDS FASTER DUDE U TAKE FOREVER LOL!!!
Do you have an upload schedule?
Can you do an video about Vietnam ? Im Vietnamese and I love to see an video about my country ^^
Just wondering, will you be doing territories like Puerto Rico and Hong Kong, and disputed countries like Palestine and Taiwan?
Huỳnh Xuân Việt he makes these videos in alphabetical order
As a native Antiguan, I think you did a really good job. Nice video.
Activar
I think the best video on Antigua and Barbuda was made buy kids learning tube
As an Antiguan I must say that you did a pretty good job, even with the mispronunciation of many many words including our dialect, then again it's not your first language. However, very good nonetheless. Also to my knowledge, though we are the friendliest and most hospitable people in the Caribbean, St. Kitts and Nevis [Nee-Vis] and us are more like' frenemies'. This came about because as you correctly said we went though most of the colonization together, however an incident occured where the Antiguans told the massas that the Kittians were planning to rebel and they didn't really like us after that [who can blame them]...they have since then called us "Garrat" which means 'talk too much"...just some additional knowledge for you. I must say I thoroughly enjoyed your presentation and I will be showing my students when I return to the classroom. I am looking forward to watching more of your videos.
You get an A+.
+Chetisha Jacobs That is something I've heard, but I've never seen the evidence for that claim. Do you have any sources? :D
Actually Grenada has been proclaimed time and time again to have the most friendly and warm people in the Caribbean.
Well... Now you know Antigua has the friendliest ppl ...
fodoronline. com/community/caribbean-islands/what-island-would-you-vote-for-as-the-friendliest-people-and- safest.cfm [self proclaimed maybe but these are people's actual opinions and these aren't Caribbean people... I'm not even seeing A&B more like Anguilla and Nevis in competition with Grenada, I had to space out the link or RUclips won't accept it but you can copy this into the Google engine and it'll bring you to the poll.]
Okay I saw one person mention Antigua as well! I've been there btw but only in transit loo and I've actually been to St.Kitts... not Nevis tho.
The red was not a symbol for the blood of martyrs?! This is madness!
No, THIS IS ANTIGUA AND BARBUDAAAA
Thought of that too.
+Benjamin Espina Hahaha
Caribbean people didn't really fight for independence... We pestered the colonizers until they eventually just gave up.
+Atiba Chike Williams Haitian people fight for their independence
2014 - A
2015 - B
2016 - C
Well isn't this great...
+Awesome Blobfish It took him around 3 months to finish A.
I am viewing from 1969
+FireFleurelle Yeahand he started in late 2014 point invald
It is actually valid. You just fail to see it.
2040-Z
As an Antiguan, I appreciate you taking the time do properly learn about us and our culture and informing others... Lol, a lot of your pronunciations were incorrect though.
did he pronounce antigua and barbuda right
@@MellohiYT no
Hey
Enjoying your channel so far. I've always been looking for a channel that discusses mostly about countries and geography, and I'm really happy that I found your channel
The "U" in Antigua is silent. It is pronounced An-ti-ga, Nevis is pronounced Nee-Vis
I know Yankee always say antigwa. Gets on my nerves.Antigua stupid Yankee!
You beat me to it
So would you pronounce a Antiguan person Antigan?
@@chloeb3987 yes, u got it
Thanks for the info!
So is anyone else rewatching this in 2017 post-Hurricane Irma? I give my condolences and wish you and the surrounding territories a speedy recovery.
what about 2020
@@imaginingmimi4234 I'm now regretting not having had the foresight to word that differently. Yup, 2020 is good too! 😉
Oh wow as an Antiguan, I'm impressed with your presentation. Thank you for this!!
Hello
Hope you're doing well. I have a presentation to give on Antigua and Barbuda. I would like to have some information from Antiguan. Could you help me?
@@MichaëlleJanessaMorisseau sure
Love Antigua from Belgium ❤
I just started binge watching this series, I’m excited for what’s to come!
So glad you've started this channel, man! Been looking for exactly this kinda channel for a loooong time! Thanks!
Hi! I really like your videos. I'm from Vietnam so I realize that I have to wait a long time to see you talking about my country! Keep on your great work!
I know a little about Vietnam. I know you guys have Buddhism status. and you guys make great rice. I love Vietnam and Vietnamese people.
Still waiting?
@@deadhandof9108 yes, I'm still waiting. Just watched Tuvalu, last country with T yesterday. Have enjoyed this journey for so many years!
@@trungduong4040 Is it done yet?
Hey Paul! I'm a super geography nerd (I know where all the countries go on all the continents) and these videos are perfect for me! I subscribed about one minute into the Afghanistan video and I'll definitely stay tuned for Argentina!
Your videos are amazing! I am from Brazil and my family and I decided to live for one year in the West Indies. We are in Antigua right now and our next stop is St Kitts. Your videos are very helpful to us!
I love how you made Barbuda pig-shaped the entire-video with the outlines.
you mean the red doesn't represent the blood of those who died for the country? so disappointed
it actually represents the country of those who died for the blood
Riley Hogan it is the blood of our ancestors who fought for our country; however, it often times gets lost in translation...
Tony Anthony goddammit Antigua and Barbuda! I thought you were special
Riley Hogan *sings* THE BLOOD OF THOSE WHO FOUGHT FOR THE COUNTRY🎵~
Riley Hogan yes it does. I'm Antiguan. jeez
Keep up your great work man! I love these kind of videos!
Thanks Nick HD ! More are coming! Share with any other people you think might enjoy geography, Ha!
Nick HD Mapping™ when is the new video coming
An Antiguan watching this and crying every time he says “Ant-ti-g-u-a”. It’s pronounced “An-ti-ga”. The U is silent.
Whoa your channel just got like 1,000 new subscribers. Looks like this channel is going somewhere…..
Marco Traystand and it did
He will because he's talking about every one's country 😂
I am from 2020. this guy did flourish.
That aged well
My grandmothers home! So glad I found this channel!!!! Thank you!!
I live on the island called Montserrat.
I am going to see if i can help you to pronounce it better.
We say Mon-sir-rat that's how we pronounce it.
Also great video :]
Waiting for the video on Montserrat
Hey there, greetings from El Salvador! I am a new subscriber, and I am thankful for these helpful outlines of the many countries in the world. I'm studying International Relations, so these come in handy. Thanks, once again.
Also, I was wondering if you are or aren't going to cover the overseas dependences ('dependencies'? Sorry, non-native English speaker here!) in your series...?
Congratulations on the amazing effort you are putting in these videos! :D
My mum's parents are from Antigua! It's such a beautiful island and given the amount of relatives I have out there it wouldn't surprise me if one of them was in the video somewhere xD
I just found your videos and I am so happy!! This is just what I was looking for, for my Summer Vacation North American Study. Learning something through videos is just so much easier than reading. THANK you!!
Barby you are so amazing!!! After my mom saw that I am watching videos about geography on my phone,she said that I can use it more often! 😂😂😂 Thank you
PS: You are amazing smart and funny and you always make me smile,laugh and learn new things
Watching your older videos is funny now lol You've taught us so much about geography, but also learned so so much about video production.
I'm American and I love that another country named their mountain Mount Obama
Did you mean Mount Genocide?
David Harrison am from antigua ..and loving it
Facundo carpcerodos No, its not named Mount Bush (George W Bush).
Climaticorus
Do you see any difference between Bush and Obama?
Yes i do, if u don't then ask Fox News.

I love this series its perfect
I'm from Antigua but now live in Canada, it was great to watch this!
Please write your what's up no. As I have a question..
Thanks alot
It's burning me up every time this guys says Anti-Gwa... It's An-Tee- GA... the U is silent ... Erghhhhhhh....
QueenWeezy™ its not u gringo
QueenWeezy™ I feel you
+QueenWeezy™ May I ask were you are from? In my country we pronounce it Anti-Gwa, and spanish is my native language
Alvaro Cerda Antiguans don't pronounce it as it's pronounced in Spanish. We don't speak Spanish. language evolves. It is pronounced An-tee-gah.
Diego Antiguans don't pronounce it as it's pronounced in Spanish. We don't speak Spanish. language evolves. It is pronounced An-tee-gah.
Hey man, i just discovered your channel recently and i really enjoy it! youre a small channel but you do a great job! keep it up!
you are just great keep up the good work
Thanks Muhis Yare ! More coming so stay tuned!
Telling you for when you reach it, Nevis is St.Kitts and Nevis is pronounced knee-vis. :D
you should have mentioned that the amerindian name for the island is Wadadli
YASSSS!!!!!! 👍🏾
It's Waladli, Wadadli is the beer company.
It´s much prettier than the actual name.
It's pronounced An-tee-ga NOT Antee-gwah
and u didnt mention we have 365 beaches :(
But good still lol
+Shanna Challenger watch the full video, he mentions the pronunciation in the end of the video.
+Shanna Challenger really?, they are named for the Spanish words for Ancient and Bearded(Female) which are pronounced An-tee-gwah and Bar-boo-dah, I thought he was saying it pretty accurate, every day we learn something new.
Shanna Challenger stfu we know damn well Antigua don't have 365 beaches I have counted them and yet to reach damn 365 so just calm urself chupzzz
Daniel González Trejos since she and I live there and are from there i guess we know how we pronounce our own country's name. gtfoh
Shanna Challenger you can go to one every day.unless it's leap year
Another awesome video, very entertaining and I keep learning new facts along the way... great work!
It's the last prime minister decided to rename buggy peak mount Obama. Not gonna lie it pissed off a lot of Antiguans.
Lmaoo most of us still call it Boggy Peak to this day
It's been officially changed back to Boggy Peak now hasn't it?
I'd be pissed too ngl
I’m so Glad you’re doing these lesser known places. Cool video
This dialect needs to be updated!😭😭Im crying man
You are the best Paul! Funny, informative videos
“Me nuh tink yuh being serious” 💀😂
I love the whole idea of this channel and the way you present your info!:)
Antigua and Barbuda has a literal translation to spanish
Antigua means Old (in female)
and Barbuda means Bearded (in female too)
So Antigua and Barbuda is an Old woman with a big beard
please... in Europe we call it "progressive"
So it means in portugueses
vc e br papyrus?
love you Antigua and Barbuda from India. will love to visit 1 day
Oh dude , i got so hyped up when you said Armenia
HAHA, Sorry, You'll have to let Argentina go first, THEN ARMENIA!! Thanks for the enthusiasm though!
***** Back at ya!
How much I have laughed with this guy, I'm visiting Antigua and Barbuda now in June and you've oriented me a lot your video thanks

Zoe Cole me too!!
Antigua and Barbuda is an island sovereign state in the West Indies in the Americas, lying between the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. It consists of two major islands, Antigua and Barbuda (separated by 39 miles), and a number of smaller islands (including Great Bird, Green, Guiana, Long, Maiden, Prickly Pear, York Islands and further south, the island of Redonda). The permanent population numbers about 95,900 (2018 est.), with 97% being resident on Antigua. The capital and largest port and city is St. John's on Antigua, with Codrington being the largest town on Barbuda. Lying near each other (the main Barbuda airport is less than 0.5° of latitude, or 56 kilometres (30 nautical miles), north of the main Antigua airport), Antigua and Barbuda are in the middle of the Leeward Islands, part of the Lesser Antilles, roughly at 17°N of the equator.
I am a new subscribed, but have recently watched all your videos. How often do you upload?
Thanks spidth11 ! It takes a lot of work to do one episode, about 20-30 hours a week, I will be taking a small break for Christmas (Also my cameraman is out of town) But I'll be back in 2015 with the next Episode on ARGENTINA!!!
I love Geography now! Great job dude, keep it up!
All the mispronunciations are making my head spin x.x
how is the internet in Antigua?
+yarpen26 I wouldn't know. I don't live there
jenlari how do you know the pronunciation's bad then?
+yarpen26 one, I live in the West Indies, and two, I have family in and from Antigua.
Nevis is "neevis", Grenada is "gre-nay-da", Antigua is "an-tee-ga", and, I believe that Dominica is "dom-in-EEK-a".
go on brother...always with u
0:01 that Is by far one of the worst things I have ever seen.
Dude your channel is awesome! following you on every episode.
I didn't know Christopher Columbus was such a tyrant
An argentinian fan right here... I love your videos, keep on doing them.
THANKS Roberto Grigolatto ! Argentina is going to be the next video!! I hope I do good on it, you can judge me as an Argentine! Haha
I hate that the called it Mt.Obama. It's Boggy Peak, goddammit.
to be honest. But a lot of them don't want to change it smh
it's all it's all our Island and we named anything what we want to name so shut up
@@brownboohenry1106 but to name one of our places after a U.S. president?
So its just a name lol you ppl need to shut up
Fuck you Trump dog
What a brilliant series - well done
3:53 i swear in haiti we have the EXACT SAME food :O
+Charlex Alexandre Omg I thought I was the only one that noticed. Im sure it was a mistake.
Lol most caribbean islands do, we just do it differently and call it different names
Ahhh.. My favourite province map in the world.. St. Johns, St. Johns, St. Johns... So much variety!
Mt Obama? Seriously?
Like this was all I thought in the whole video
it was first named Boggy peak I don't know why they changed it to Mt Obama
Janine Cornelius I wonder if it’s count Mount Trump now
BOGGYYYYY PEAKKKKKKKKK
We changed it in honor of the first black president...barak obama
I'm on a spree of these videos, love them!!
I visited Antigua last year and most people I met want to rename Mt. Obama
Gotta agree with them on that
Hey guys... and the peeps at Geography Now.. just a quick side note... I'm from and currently reside in Antigua... and it's amazing what you did in this video, it's enticingly informative... HOWEVER... The correct pronunciation of the name is Antigua (AN-TI-GAH) . It makes us cringe sometimes, but the more you know guys. Keep up the good work.
RIP barbuda :(
Fear not. Codrington will rise again.
Just come back from Antigua and is now in a fxxking quarantine. It's a really beautiful country and has got very nice people. The taxi driver I met there was so friendly! BTW, I'm just recently recommended these videos and I do love them! Maybe I'll leave my comments after the CN version.
Hurricane Irma anybody?
Love to all Antiguans watching this video. Thanks for the interesting information Paul.
It's pronounced an-it-guh. I'm not Antiguan but being from the Caribbean I don't like hearing it being pronounced incorrectly
An-ti-guh. Stupid auto correct
He said at the end of the video.
great vid!! i'm from Antigua as well!
I'll admit, the first 10 seconds was pretty funny:D Like if you agree! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Brother u r fantastic...proud about u..i live in south west of England..Take care brother..i really appreciate .
Saint Martin? The island so nice they named it thrice?
Really love your videos! Please keep them up!
Yo we don't talk at. We talk English get your facts right
This guys is just too cool. He makes me really enjoy learning.
6:57 Not Armenia
And this is why I like the internet, cuz of videos like these. Waiting for Guatemala and Mexico. Keep up the good work!
5:28 Dafuq?! That can't be English
English creole
Dumbass not every has to be american English and it is English
I think it would be a nice idea to add some sources in the description box :)
But, I love your enthusiasm and quality of video and abundant information! Made me a fan from video no. 1 (I think the first one i watched was on Algeria) :D keep up the great work! I would not be surprised to see this channel become a huge success!
Actually scratch that suggestion. I just realized that you have the sources in the credits at the end of the video... my bad.
when you say British you should use the British flag NOT the English flag,,,,,,,,,, just saying
imarobotking 1632 was before the Kingdom of Great Britain was founded and it was still just the Kingdom of England then. :)
***** True, however he still used British flags while saying England and then vice versa. He also done this in the Afghanistan video when relating the Wakhan Corridor saying England while using a British flag and referring to Britain as a whole since the colonial efforts in the area was well after the Acts of Union.

Woooo excited you're going to cover st maarten more in depth since I lived there for 2 years :)
Will you do Kosovo?
Artison Sokoli No, disputed countries will be done after all recognized countries are finished.
weltarchiv4 okay thanks
Justin Burke Palestine has never been a country so he won't do it.
MuffHam, It actually was a country, since about 2100 years ago till when the British included their territory into modern day Israel. The proper Palestinian country used to be at least 80% of today's territory and almost all of the central part of what is now Israel.
Mark Said There has not been a country called Palestine since biblical times. When the British took over that land it was part of the Ottoman Empire and not a country. Palestine has been a region not a country, two completely different things.
I feel so lucky to have found this series a bit after the Tanzania episode; at least this way I don't have to wait weeks for new episodes, 'cause I still have about 150 left to watch!
Its just Antigua now.
woww...i didn't want to laugh, but I did...
I dont get it
firepower because hurricane irma hit Barbuda and it got destroyed
Yes! Argentina is next! I can't wait.
The flag looks like a girl led on a beach with her legs open facing the rising/setting sun the point of view is from the girl
Dylan 22 it really doesn't
Dude, get a mental check! LOL!!!!
I already knew that
Hoping to visit the beautiful island someday. Many love to Antigua and Barbuda from China 🇨🇳❤️🇦🇬
My grandparents live there!
I am going to watch all videos.
Cant wait to go back.
This channel is like my travel goals list x)
