    9:43 Funny thing about East Timor, is that that is not its official name. It's official name is Timor Leste and apparently it really doesn't like it when people call it East Timor. You already explained the Timor part of the name, and how it leads to the translation of the informal name being "East East". But the word Leste is Portuguese, since the country was under the rule of Portugual. What does the word "Leste" translate into, you ask?
    *East.*

    Just a couple of things I really need to say right off the bat... first off, I'm really sorry for how long it's been since my last video. 2020 was a weird year (for all of us) and there were several factors that contributed to me not uploading. I'm very optimistic for 2021 though, both for my channel and the world as a whole.
    Second, I know that Wendover also did this video. I actually had this idea way back in 2014, and was working on it as a background project until 2016 when Wendover uploaded his videos and so I decided to put away my list, and didn't add to it for several years. Then I figured enough time had passed (and new facts have emerged) that it shouldn't stop me from making a video that I really wanted to make.
    So here it is.

    If you're a regular viewer of the channel, some of the facts may seem a little repetitive (especially if you've seen my flag video), but like I said, I have been collecting these facts for several years, before many of my other videos even existed.

    As mentioned at the end of the video, I finally decided to start a Patreon after 7 years on RUclips. It's not that I will give up on doing sponsored content, but I think not having to rely on sponsorship money to allow me to do this full-time will give me more creative freedom. I could tackle bigger, more ambitious projects, and maybe even do some videos that aren't very "advertiser-friendly". So if you would like to help me out, I would greatly appreciate any support! www.patreon.com/wonderwhy

    Finally, for 2021, I also would like to engage more with my audience, so I have decided to start a Discord server. So come join us at discord.gg/eshPYMhMTw
    (shoutout to High Peak Mapping for helping me set it up)
    Thanks for the patience during my absence, it's great to be back! Looking forward to lots of new projects for 2021. Be sure to come back for Part 2, where I will require some audience participation. More on that later

    I think you need to explain more about East Timor (9:43). The word Timor refers to the name of the island where the country located. And yes, the name of the island "Timor" comes from the word "east" in Malay. However, it is "East Timor" because the country has the eastern part of the Timor Island and the western part belongs to Indonesia.

    The Bukina Faso story is quite a complex one. One filled with tears and suffering.
    After colonisation ended, Thomas Sankara set out to rebuild the country back up with equality and justice in mind.
    Without the help of the western world and of course they managed to kill him through his friend. Basically neo-colonialism.
    He'd influenced the name to remind his people of the values they were to hold as a society.
    RIP Sankara.

      What would you know about Sankara anyways? Don't wanna guess your nationality but the West sure have shit on your brain buddy. "Dictator" lol.
      He never had any animosity towards any opposition. He never harmed anybody and was the most humble human that country had ever seen. Have you seen the car he rode versus what the "opposition" rode. Pretty stupid to assume every Visionary African leader is bent on being a dictator.
      "He would have been a dictator" why did the West never let him be then? Why did they kill him before he became one? They let other dictator be why not him? You're Asian and you've had your fair share of dictators why not care about those and stop worrying about those that "could've been"?
      Was the arsehole they put in power not the dictator? Plunging his country into dept and corruption? Increasing the wealth gap and continuing to oppress his own people like the colonisers did?
      Plus I don't see how a dictator could have the values he did.
      He was a dictator to his killers and you siding with them? Nah think twice. That's disgusting.

    For those wondering, the reason Australia has so many national parks is because much of our land is made up of former Aboriginal tribeland, what we call The Rightful Owners. These lands are protected and regarded as very culturally significant, especially those containing Aboriginal paintings (which are very beautiful and you should check out). If you come to visit please be as respectful as possible and don't touch significant things, as sadly most Aboriginal history is lost, and preserving as much as possible is difficult enough. Take only pictures, leave only footprints - sincerely Australian with a love of her country (not the government though that thing sucks lmao)

      @@justalex3828 The thing is, there's a certain party that others don't want to cooperate with. Called Vlaams Belang, others view them as too extreme whilst the only thing they want is security in our own country which apparently seems taboo for the rest of the parties. Lately Vlaams Belang has been getting more and more votes than ever, overtaking anyone else. The current left wing parties barely get 10% of the votes each but found a loophole to counter a majority vote. If they all work together in a coalition, they can outnumber VB and still remain in power. But to do that, they need the other bigger parties with a big portion of votes. Most often those parties refuse to work together with left wing parties as they tend to swing money to themselves whenever they can on costs of the state and taxpayers. Literally, the left wing parties here just increased their own budget with millions for no reason... Anyway, there needs to be a majority among votes with the combination of parties that they'd like (At least 51% of votes counted together). If they don't reach that majority, they can't pass as a government and no government will start. It happened twice already where that occured. The coalition of parties didn't reach the majority of votes to become ruling parties. But due to Covid pandemic, the party with about the least amount of votes abused their current power to put some dumb Walloonian politician in power to "lead" (Basically leave Belgium and its citizens to fend for themselves).
      So basically, TLDR: If there's no majority of votes with the coalition they choose. No government will be installed, even if for the sake of having a governmen.
      Because fuck Open-VLD and the Walloonian parties dishing around Flemish money.

      @@cowcolalover420 It depends on what you're more interested in!
      You can have scuba diving, calm beaches and wonderful chill hotels with mountainous nature on the Red Sea in cities like "Sharm El-Shiek" or "Hurgada" from there you can also go on trips to "Dahab" or "Saint Catherine" for hiking, camping, crazy hippie parties and water sports.
      You can spent a couple of Days to explore the capital Cairo, see the pyramids in Giza, the Egyptian museum, go on a boat trip in the Nile, walk around downtown area, eat street food, enjoy nightlife and local foods, you can also visit Islamic and Roman Cairo and the city walls and citadel .. you will be surprised but warning it is extremely chaotic and crowdy. 3 days there is enough.
      If you're more into ancient Egypt you visit the capital of Ancient Egypt down south: "Thebes" currently "Luxor" .. you'll find all the ancient Temples, tombs and palaces, also visit "Aswan" with Nile islands, crocodiles, colorful villages and more ancient Egyptian stuff.
      Then there's also the magical oases in the Western desert, you can visit "Siwa", a paradise in the middle of the desert with the largest number of palm trees in the world, which has the temple of divination in which Alexander the great was crowned king of Egypt .. it has an awesome fully preserved medieval stone old city and walls. Healing white sands, salt lakes in which you can never drown because they're too salty they'll always bring you back on top. From there you can go on a Safari journey between the dunes of the Sahara desert.
      It is not advised to visit in summer because of the heat.
      Travel safe and i hope you enjoy your trip in Egypt ❤️🇪🇬
