Gaborone is the largest and capital city of Botswana. The city is also refered to as the political capital of the Southern African countries because it's where the headquarters of the Southern African Development Community (SADC). The city has a metropolitan population of 270,000 million people that live in it.
The capital city was named after Kgosi Gaborone, leader of the Batlokwa people, who migrated from their ancestral homelands in the Magaliesberg Mountains and in 1881 settled in the Tlokweng area. Gaborone literally means ‘it does not fit badly’ or ‘it is not unbecoming.” The tolerant mind-set of Gaborone derives from the gathering of the many different cultures and the thousands-strong individual minds. The beautification of the edginess inspires, provokes opportunities and creates an intersection where two extremes meet each other and therefore become indefinable. Gaborone lies in a flat valley between Kgale and Oodi Hills, on the Notwane River in southeastern Botswana, about 9 miles (15 kilometers) from the South African border.
Gaborone was founded in 1965, as the capital of Botswana. It is notable that the entire center of the city was constructed within three years. Formerly the British protectorate of Bechuanaland, on September 30, 1966, the country became independent within the Commonwealth of nations. Following its independence, Botswana has maintained one of the world's highest economic growth rates.

Picture on the thumbnail is Nairobi Kenya
My 21 year old son has Down syndrome. He loves countries and he found this video. Thank you so much for teaching us more about Gaborone!!!! We are from Ohio in the USA!
Why is it important in this context that he has down-syndrome?
Does America have Mcdonald's?
I m from Pakistan ❤️ love Botswana nice country ❤️ greetings from Dubai ❣️ appreciate Botswana people 👍 after Morocco this country is one my list for African tourism 😍
stay there, don't come here
I worked in Gabs for two years 1993/4 it’s a beautiful city and the people are very friendly I traveled al over the country and found it both beautiful and exciting with very little trouble I never encountered corruption or violence I have nothing but fond memories of my time in Gaborone Tim Meehan Ireland
You re right,its because it has few people
Botswana can be an incredibly affordable place to live, especially if expats manage their finances well. Gaborone ranks low on Mercer's Cost of Living Survey, and is more affordable than most of the 200 other listed cities. Its favourable exchange rate also attracts people from the US, the UK and Europe.
Couldn’t agree more.
Have you lived in Gaborone before?
Just returned from a missionary trip to Botswana, it's a beautiful country. The people are very welcoming, can't wait to return!! NC/USA
as an asian, I am so impressed. the city is so beautiful
Hi
I agree with the previous post, City is amazing and I to am African American from the USA.
The city is dry but I love the cleanliness. Sending love from the green city of Lusaka Zambia
Because Botswana is a semi desert 🏜️ 🐪
Happy that you used Nairobi's image for your cover🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
Cause if he used a image of Gaborone people would ask where is the city
I only watched the video as I was shocked that the city in the thumbnail was definitely not Gabs 😂 At least now I know that that’s Nairobi
Gaborone is a beautiful city. I am viewing from the USA. I am also African American
It is, great people and really safe. I am Bakalanga myself although born in Zimbabwe. Easy going folks, highly recommend especially if relocating will provide similar conveniences as the US and South Africa is an hour away if you miss big city living.
I am watching this video from Greece , it's very interesting!!
Very well done video. The video editing and narration was very professional. Great to see RUclipsrs putting out such high-quality content --- it can be hard to find!

Glad you enjoyed the video.
Have you been to Gaborone before?
@@TheAfricanScript Yes I have...and the Thumbnail shot is still from Nairobi
@@TheAfricanScript the thumbnail is Nairobi I'm in Nairobi and that white building is city hall
@@TheAfricanScript Yes, we enjoyed the video but you are misleading by using that thumbnail
Gaborone. The city which is a normal day to day city. But you will be shocked when you realize africa is soon gonna be rich
The thumbnail picture is Nairobi City.
I have a best friend who lives here and Id love to go visit her one day!!!!
Beautiful African modern city .
Viewing from America. Is there automatic citizenship for the diaspora? If not it should be. Botswana would be a superpower.
No. I don't want Botswana to be flooded by people who don't share the culture.
@@FictionHubZA True. A lot of people underestimate this cultural factor. You get people who'll come to your country and demand that you as the host country must bend to their culture instead of them adopting the culture of their host country.
And when you don't approve of this nonsense, they'll start calling you names. Yet when you go to their countries, they'll tell you straight to your face if you're stepping out of line in accordance to their country's culture/way of living.
That's why I have so much respect for Arabic and Asian countries. You can call them whatever you want, they don't really care. If you come to live in their countries you are expected to adopt their way of living. You will be frowned upon if you don't because you found them doing their thing and you think your way is better than theirs.
In conservative Arabic states you'll even end up in jail for breaking some cultural rules because they are tied to their religion.
Nurhi from canadian tamil
Looking from Chile!!!
Not enough on the ground research was done for this video, too much reliance on desktop research. So for example in saying Chief Kgosi Gaborone the narrator has just said Chief Chief Gaborone whereas he was simply Kgosi Gaborone, also Uber doesn’t operate in Gaborone, though InDrive does.
How can reach botwasana -gaborone and which procedure to follow so as I can live there
I love this
Glad you enjoyed the video Lucy.
Are you from Gaborone?
It's beautiful but so small
Gaborone
Beautiful Gaborone.
Are you from Gaborone?
Looks really nice. Reminds me of an african Albuquerque, NM. What is your opinion on Maun?
Botswana is like a small village in kenya
Why is the thumbnail Nairobi
Like why is it nairobi?
@@spacemank6070 because i csn see the city hall
@@Eddyke what I meant was why the channel chose nairobi. Im also trying to figure out why false advertising. This is the CBD of nairobi.
This doesn't look like Africa in the media 😁
Ya cause they lie to you
Ok
Why did you use Nairobi's image as the vid cover?
👍👍👍
Thank you Abdo.
Glad to have you here.
Btw, have you been to Botswana before?
@@TheAfricanScript please upload new videos and keep going ok 🇪🇹💝🇧🇼
Thank you
Correction, Botswana is ranked among the least corrupt countries in the WORLD.
The first pic on the thumbnail is actually my city Nairobi Kenya 🇰🇪 not Gaborone 😅
Is windhoek city better because of the extraordinary less population of Namibia and on being the second least populated country in the world after Mongolia?
It's a silent G
Thumbnail is Nairobi Kenya not Botswana
You showcase Gaborone but use Nairobi as its thumbnail? 🤔
Fr bro
0:47 Where are Eswatini and Lesotho?!
Annexed😂
Inside South Africa
Your accent sounds Ugandan
So you are going to use this map that erases Somalia
U map is not right,Somalia is not part of Ethiopia .
نعيس مش مزين
The rest are perfect,but your editing is way below average,how can u use a map that excludes SOMALIA from the African Map,FYI SOMALIA was part and parcel of the freedoms those SADC countries enjoy today,kindly re-do the video minus the fake map.thanks
You are a liar because the map of Africa you presented is not correct, where did you get it from? You have completely removed Somalia, which is the country with the longest coast in Africa, that is proof of your ignorance of geography in general in Africa, especially in the Horn of Africa.
