I haven't watched the video yet, but It's on the east coast of Africa, near the equator, the capital is Nairobi. It's in the same region where humans evolved. I used to be a British colony. There was a rebellion against the British in the 1950s, which was suppressed with extreme brutality. Obama's father came from there, and Richard Dawkins spend a large part of his childhood there. The flag has a shield on it. It has a disproportionate number of world class long distance runners.. It used to be pronounced "Keenya". That's most of what I know about Kenya.
Corruption is evil,one cannot love evil,it only beings misery and poverty at the end in which for one to benefit thousand will incur losses,one cannot get used to it
I have kept written, audio, and video journals since age 15, and i will be 75 in October. I used the recorder apps, RUclips, and Judi Grace StoryCorps. Thank you so much! thank you.

@@dathip you found a country already built you moron, what have you done to make your country first world?! Being rich doesn't mean you're smart either, FYI!
I think its great to know of many different cultures and be informed but, you cant expect someone to know much about kenya. People have different specialties and knowledge in various subjects.
What do Americans know about Kenya!? Absolutely nothing. I have met a few who have been there and know quite a bit but... Most know nothing. Those who travel there though, love it!
One thing that stands out, is it was obviously never a French colony nor invaded by the US. So I would have to surmise that after being part of the British Empire, they chose close ties with the USSR like India.
Rabi Ben Lavi They stayed in the British Empire as it evolved into the British commonwealth and then into the commonwealth of nations, to this day they remain in the commonwealth with close ties to Britain and all the other commonwealth brothers (i think Obama's father served in the British army iirc)
Rabi Ben Lavi Close ties with Russia would mean not being in the commonwealth, which they are.... xD Also mine's bigger... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenya%E2%80%93United_Kingdom_relations
hahah this reminds me of a conversation i had with an American friend and he asked 'I got a friend in lagos(Nigeria) by the name John you know him!?' that was our last coversations cause dude your map is lying lagos was never a street in Nairobi kenya google should be Americans close friends
I'm just an American but I've known Kenyan was nowhere near Nigeria. Nigeria is in West Africa and Kenya is in the east. I have some videos on black and African history.
timotheus nakashona GUARANTEED!!! MCDONALDS AND IPHONES ONLY - I.E. MAJORITY OF THEM. CONSUMERISM HAS EATEN THEIR BRAINS AWAY... THAT'S WHY SO MANY PSYCHIATRISTS AND PSYCHOLOGISTS HAVE SUCH SUCCESSFUL ENTERPRISES!!
I hear you.... More Americans need to get involved in the education of their children and demand an overhaul... Akin to a revolution, There will be consequences in the long run if not. Its a pity that there is no alarm raised yet!!!
Soccer? Hehe, you crack me up. We did have a good rugby team for a while though. Second best only to the all blacks or the Springboks(depends on the year) then we weren't any more.
pwahahaha this video made me laugh so hard and I remembered I was chatting with an Asian guy and he asked where are u from and I said Africa then he told me wow it's a nice country haaaaaaa I was like bitch go study the map and no the difference between continents and countries
😂😂 Why is this in my recommendations years later? The comments though 😅😂 Also, Kenya has very beautiful natural sites. And almost everything, serious or not, is basically turned into a meme 😂 #kenyasihami

Not fair. They are Americans. BBC it’s like us expecting you as The English to know about dentistry or equality of all human beings and not to to be aficionados at empire building and evil imperialism. Just not fair.
Matt Brown JUST SAME REASON YOU FIND AMERICAN AND ALL NATIONALS ALL OVER THE WORLD. EVERYONE IS ON A MISSION TO LIVE SOMEWHERE AND THUS MANY OR FEW DEPENDING ON HOW IT IS LOOKED UPON ARE ALWAYS ON THE MOVE. I SEE AMERICAN IN MIDDLE EAST, SOUTH AMERICA AND PART OF THE WORLD.
Matt Brown Soo many of its people??? We are 40 million plus. How many have left for the US or anywhere else? a few thousands!! (SOOO MANY!!) And why not? We have the right to work anywhere, tour anywhere, see the world and experience different cultures for whatever reason. And that's why probably we are way more exposed, less ignorant and more appreciate of the world than most americans like yourselves will ever be in your ignorance cacoon!!
Kenya Exports Knowledge.!... A Kenyan would stay in US iff and only if he is employed, But an Average American will keep whining over unemployment.! Kenyans also love to experience the world.
Same reason that America is a wonderful place but there are millions of Americans living elsewhere in the world. The reasons do not have to be negative.

Best country in east africa but corruption is too damn high
corruption starts at our homes we are used to it and we love it
Corruption is evil,one cannot love evil,it only beings misery and poverty at the end in which for one to benefit thousand will incur losses,one cannot get used to it
Corruption starts at the moment someone steals your phone
Its part of our culture
Corruption is a career here in Kenya
