Afro Fijians Called Tanganyika!!! Pt.1/10 (French Sub/Captioned)

- Blacks in Fiji can trace their roots for thousands of years back to the Lake Tanganyika area in East Africa.
Lake Tanganyika is an African Great Lake. It is the second-oldest freshwater lake in the world, the second-largest by volume, and the second-deepest, in all cases after Lake Baikal in Siberia. It is the world's longest freshwater lake. The lake is shared between four countries-Tanzania, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Burundi, and Zambia, with Tanzania (46%) and DRC (40%) possessing the majority of the lake. It drains into the Congo River system and ultimately into the Atlantic Ocean.

I met a brother from Fiji in London he said the same, because the East African are master seafarer for thousands. African have been sailing round the World for thousands of years before Conquest. 99 percent of South Pacific are Melanated People. I am not surprise about the origin of the Fijian People
As also were the West Africans.
They made it to both South America and North America before Christoper Columbus.
@@janicejames3005 That is absolutely truth, because you can still find typical West African corn in Mexico and many lating American. Olmec Heads, that found in Coastal city of Mexico, are Typical West African Bantu.
Fijians definitely originated from Africa, but they Pacific Island people 🏝 alot of people in the pacific are mixed between Black, Asian and European, But not 99% are melanated I'd say about 40% Melanesian, 40%Polynesian and 20% Micronesian.
@@deebo2932 I love your response.
I might add a little scientific info because of the times that we live in. A certain percentage of the population carry a gene not found in the general African population. The gene originated from Netherlands man- a cousin you might say to homo sapiens. This gene makes you more susceptible to serious illnesses from the virus that has been around the last two years.
@@janicejames3005 Yes, the Netherlands man, this has been scientifically proven. Also ancient Africans invented agriculture, writing and mathematics. Stonehenge was built by black Africans, look into it!
Welcome back to Tanzania our beautiful motherland and the cradle of mankind.
Ooh my God, I want to visit this community, Tanganyika is my former name of my country Tanzania.

Good to have you here brother Jordan!
In Tanzania we have a place called Rufiji, in the Southern part of Tanzania (formerly known as Tanganyika before we joined with Zanzibar to be called Tanzania)
My friends dad told of the Fiji people wing from Rufiji and I thought it was a joke, now from seeing that they're called Tanganyika, it makes a whooole lot of sense now. I'd love to visit Fiji and meet my people
"Fiji" is not an indigenous word but rather 'Viti'. Fiji came about when the europeans used the Tongan word for 'Viti' which is 'Fisi' and converted it to english.
@@justforgiven2438 I'm indigenous Fijian and I know that people came from Tanzania Africa live in Fiji for bloody long time. You only born yesterday and you don't know shit about Fiji. So tell me where the he'll you from?
There's is also a Bantu tribe in Zambia that used to wear stock in their noses like Tonga of Tonga!!!
I know deep down Fiji, Tonga and many others were and still related to us Africans. But Europeans won't allow this to be known.
@@maragolihistory2118What one man can invent another can discover. Such an unfair comparison due to Africa's large land mass and population they are bound to have similarities with other cultures the odds are clearly in there favor. what's with the whole white mens out to get y'all conspiracy. Why would they not want what you claim to be known. What could they hope to gain from an outlandish nonsensical claim. Stop trying to force connections when there are clearly none..
@@justforgiven2438 what is the meaning of fisi?
In swahili is hyena
Welcom home brothers and sisters love from Tanganyika🇹🇿
All of the first melenated people are related. Period. If you are a pink person (neanderthal/"caucasian"), a mongoloid (white skinned Chinese Japanese etc), or anything in between, you are something completely different. The greater melenated genetic pool is vast and diverse.
Soooo true, they don't like to ear this
I'm proud to say that my Ancestors are from Tanganaika Africa although we mixed with other nationalities on our way to Fiji . Peoples DNA are different . Mine may be different from the other but our Ancestors started from Tanganaika. I love it that our food preparation are just about the same like wrapping in banana leaves and fufu although ours are mixed with browned sugar maybe changed by the white people.
WOW!!!
Not true .There is no connection to Tanganyika or Tanzania as you claim.
Fiji’s first settlers arrived from the islands of Melanesia at least 3,500 years ago. They were Cannibals.
I'm from Southern Africa but my ancestors are from Tanganyika also 😊
Typical Fijian mentality, right there. Will believe anything..even if there is NO prove!!! We came through South EastAsia bavulu levu! There is evidence (Lapita pottery) But NO evidence that we came from Africa. You should be banned from breeding!
Can't wait! I'm always excited for your uploads

Yes my friends from Fiji here in New Zealand asked told me bout Tanganyikans in Fiji. I’m from Tanganyika myself.
Wow, they are called Tanganyika just like the old name for the country of Tanzania. They could be ancient Tanzanians.
They are. They crossed the oceans thousands years ago. Originally from lake Tanganyika tho so we need study historical events between them leaving the lake, crossing land to ocean and crossing over to pasific. Such an interesting origins story this.
Exactly...tanganyika is Tanzania...
That is exactly what came to my mind. Caribbean here.

Isn't it lovely to be just welcome in a country? You will also welcomed the same if you are Melanesian and visited any country in Africa. I know because l been there.
Don't just stop in Fiji, continue on to New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Solomon Islands. Papua New Guinea. I would say that are very friendly and loving people. Best Wishes to you Journey through the South Pacific ❤️❤️

They’re indigenous but never forgot where they originated, I love that for them.
@visualpoet1 thank you for sharing this video Brother!!!
Being a grandson of a fijian chief,
our legend state we traveled down the river Rufiji in Africa south of Tanzania. Apparently we were warrior who also worked as gold mines Egypt
Thank you for your 'Oral History' contribution.
I'm trying to piece together the origins and circumstances of 'The Scattering' of Africans at around the time of the 'last days' of Kamet/Ancient Egypt.
My father lives in Burundi which borders Lake Tanganyika, the longest freshwater lake in the world, which can be seen from space.
The outlook and accent is so easy African. 😀thank you for bringing such videos. It gives hope to the African race
Not even close on the accent, totally different
@@Samizouza u can hear traces of bantu languages in it
@@africaine4889 Only in language but not the accent
@@Samizouza a 2nd african who is born in france or italy also loose the african accent so....
@@africaine4889 Let's agree to disagree then, because I only hear the bantu influence in language since our Fijian accent is unique in its own way like the various Caribbean accents despite acknowledging taganiika as our place of origin.
And like any other Fijian beside myself, we only claim to come from Africa but never call ourselves Africans.
Welcome back home to Tanzania / Tanganyika 🇹🇿

Fijian translation . TAQA - basket, NI - of, IIKA - fish. Lake Taqanika literal Fijian translation - “Basket of Fish”. Just some facts for u haters. Lake Taqanika has the most diverse species of freshwater fish in the world and also 17% of the worlds fresh water.
So true 💯♥️
That was nice.
For your information my friend , Fijians don't have roots in Africa. DNA and it's language points to Taiwan. Fijians use the Tagalog vowels when they speak. It's origins trace back to Asia namely Taiwan. This vowels is strongly used in Japan as well. The Tagalog vowels which is also used across the Polynesia archipelago is (A,E,I,O,U) which for a start does not exist in any part of Africa. Secondly , our DNA which is the ultimate proof shows no direct link to Africa but Asia and the South Pacific and in most cases , Amazon. If there was any DNA link , then it would probably be a one off night stand type thing. People in Fiji are not well informed of this issue because they rely on hear say stories over kava or similar type setting and make decisions based on similar vowel sounds as suggested with the "Tanganyika" fib where in our language, it's pronounced " Tagani-ika).Two separate words describing fish in a sack and not one straight word which would have sound Taqanika (Notice the "Q" in this spelling) as oppose to the above from Africa. Our DNA points to Asia where our numbers are so similar to that of Taiwan , Filipinas , down to Indonesia. None of it exist in any part of Africa. Our double decked canoes in the past use to carry more than 3000 men and women. Their features probably changed somewhere between Indonesia and Melanesia. Though Fijians look like Melanesian's,( Dark Skinned ) their culture and language are that of Polynesia.(Lighter Skinned) Melanesians don't have chiefly systems and protocols as those in Polynesia like The Kingdom Tonga for an example. Melanesia just have like some sort of a headman's of its group similar to a chief but that's all there is to it, A chief. Watching this video makes me sad because of the mis information these market vendors are carrying around as if it's true when It's not. That tour guide lady was totally oblivious to the potential damage she could be causing us Fijians to the outside world. Govt needs to put laws in place to control those type's of promotions where an inexperienced individual is involved. I am saying this from a sincere heart who has business interest in Fiji as well. I have shown this video to friends and so far one even responded with disgust and said that lady doesn't even know the Fintel building but she knows how to rot a tourist. On the same token, your video is the first where I've seen someone mention the term 'Black" Fijians. It's usually Melanesians or Polynesians. We weren't slaves in history but fierce warriors who established itself in Fiji some thousand years back and which was called" Fisi" by the Tongans or "Viti" in Fijian. These three countries are related one way or the other, Samoa, Tonga and Fiji. I hope this should shed some light as who we truly we are as Fijians. Have nothing against Africans either but rather not allow people carrying on fib hear say stories where it has become somewhat real to those market vendors. Goodness knows how far those stories have gone. Please stick to the DNA and vowels theory as proof, that's all. Peace.
Here's one DNA proof of many ruclips.net/video/ex603AVm3TE/видео.html

Educate yourself MORE your words are wrong "his vowels is strongly used in Japan as well. The Tagalog vowels which is also used across the Polynesia archipelago is (A,E,I,O,U) which for a start does not exist in any part of Africa. " These vowels are the bases for All Bantu languages these are than 70+ languages used by +500 Million people in Africa If you are getting this wrong then how many parts are you getting wrong ?????? in more than 2o African countries you can not pass grade one without your aeiouS
Every African can not only do AEIOU but can pronounce very Japanese word with almost as good local accent regardless of if they know the meaning or not because the language has same grammar rules as many Bantu languages while at it there is a meeting place in Africa with Asia its called Madagascar where half the people have A LANGUAGE SIMILAR to that of the Malaysia/ Philippines mixed with Bantu language DNA also same as some of the coast of Mozambique right up to the islands in Asia and this was done through ancient travels of ALL people not by slavery.
that is because the original inhabitants of Taiwana, Cambodia, China, Japan were all melanin dominant human. for your information even Japanese, hindu, Chinese and all Asian languages are Bantu/Black people languages. the whole world was once black only.
In Africa, in this Taqanaika region ,
dwelt for a long time warrior group of people called the "Viti " people Africa king them very well

May I ask what is the monthly rental expenses for a small room for 1 people at Fiji please?
Well it really depends on your budget. We have alot of Air B&Bs nows. You can just simply type on Google Fiji Airn B&B or Hotels & they will provide choices according to your preferences.
Also get yourself a 2023 Lonely Planet booklet. I tell you it will be like a local taking you around. Its detailed & has all the places to visit.
For instances some hotels are 180-300FJD a night & some cane be 60 to 100 FJD a night. If your coming from USA than your money is bigger than ours.
Also best to come with a friend. Its more Fun that way. I hope you have a great and Safe time in Fiji. GODBLESS. ❤
They are Fijians the others must distinguish them selves
It fable that about this the powerful chief Lutunasobasoba and his people followed the trade cross the Indian Ocean traveling south east Asia settled Fiji Island pacific
To say black in Fiji is like saying blacks in Africa my dude. When was fiji ever not a black country?..Just like half of the pacific. Are you guys letting other people come and take your countries?. 🤔 like belize?..
Good point brother bc those people are native to Fiji yet calling them Afro Fijians just call them by their own land and then don’t forget there is group of indo Fijians(Indians) immigrants in Fiji who want to control the resources and culture of our brother and sisters in Fiji
@@Shimmye Being in Fiji myself, that is never going to happen in regards of the Indians taken over the landsm, when you visit, you will know what i am talking about. Also the people in Fiji own 80 percent of the land, Fijian people are not dumb, they are a warrior people. Fiji is basically a combination of Melanesia and Polynesia. The people in the East is more Polynesian in the lau group close to Tonga, but at the end of the day, they are all ethnic Fijians.

All i can see here in the comments, some fijian and what to be fijian talk about this and that's and say fijian aren't from Tanzania, we only believe what ours ancestors told our great great grandparents pass down to our grandfather that we came from Taqaniyika that's all ,if your ancestors is not fijian that's why you always argue.

It’s funny because tanganyika is a lake in Congo DR 🇨🇩 and a city in Zambia 🇿🇲
Tanganyika is a name originally from Africa great lakes area specifically Wabembe tribe of Congo... German missionaries named the Tanganyika territory as Tanganyika Deutch East Africa.. which includes Rwanda, Burundi, Current Tanzania (which formerly was known as Tanganyika), Northern Mozambique area and some parts of East Congo along side lake Tanganyika as it's territory.
All in all Arabs who traded slaves, ivories and gold from Tanganyika territory affected generations.. The Sidis of India, Black in Arab Countries, Black in different Islands..
Though remains two concepts..
One as
Generation from Gonduana Land as the world before drifted into continents and Islands
while others
the world generation after slave trade.

Tanganyika/Tanzania was a name given to the now East African country by the British. These Fijians were taught in school by Europeans that they came from Tanganyika. Melanesians came from Africa more than 50 thousand years ago. Maybe Fijians are not Melanesians.

@@razackchrist5096 Of course Fijian ancestors came from Africa more than 50 thousand years ago. The story that Fijians tell about their ancestors came from Tanganyika was taught to them by the first missionaries who went to Fiji because they thought the Fijians look like East Africans. There is no genetic, linguistic and cultural link between Melanesians and Africans. Our ancestors came from Africa tens of thousands of years ago and not as recent as Fijians believe to be.
Fijians are Melanesians , not Polynesians though Eastern Fiji , the Lau Group has a lot of mixing with Tonga due close proximity, so have more Polynesian genes

Get the Facts straight . There's nothing supporting they came from Tanganyika or Tanzania . Indigenous Fijians are believed to have arrived in Fiji from western Melanesia approximately 3,500 years ago, though the exact origins of the Fijian people are unknown. Later they would move onward to other surrounding islands, including Rotuma, as well as blending with other (Polynesian) settlers on Tonga and Samoa. Today and in future they will be embracing Islam as their religion & they will be all Muslims soon.
Hey my friend, keep your lecture to yourself or tell it to someone who is interested, not me.
I am only recording what they are saying,. I did not come up with anything, they are saying it all. I am just a cameran... Let put it THAT WAY.
If you truly know your Koran then you should know that Mouhammed wont be coming back to save you but Jesus, If you truly follow all the verses in the Koran, then follow this ... look in the book of Surah and read it all. Theres a verse there which clearly says, if you're confused about the so called holy koran , go then and ask the people of the book or bible because that is where the koran was mis interpreted from to suit Mohammed's filthy habits because he changed it and forced mostly the poor to follow it by force. So if Mohammed's dead and gone and not coming back , why waste your time on him. Seek the people of the book where I belong and Iam advising you to follow Jesus now who had promised to return one day to save his people or miss the band wagon and end up in hell where Mouhammed is right now as we speak.. I am from the people of the book which the koran has authorized you lot to follow. Do it or realise and know your destiny from today onwards,Peace.
