Hi Axel, as a European interested in languages, but not a lot exposure to African names, I must ask, does Ntwari have 2 or 3 syllables?

Hey, Paul Barby, I have a suggestion. You should have a separate section for culture: food, celebrations, music, etc.
And yes, I agree you have to do lots of research already as it is. Just saying it would be nice. I would gladly watch a video 2 or 3 minutes longer than that.
Congratulations man, I really love your channel =)
I think you may have made history with this suggestion
Fantastic video! I meet someone from Burundi yesterday and wanted some info from where she came from. Your video went above and beyond what I was looking for, thank you sir.
The reason why the river border is like that is because rivers move, but borders don't. Those "creeks" that you talked about are actually oxbow lakes, remnants of the old river path.
I’m a Burundian and your video taught me more about my country than I ever knew 😅 so thank you!
I have just realised that at the current release rate, it would take 7 years to finish all 195 countries. That's a long time to wait until Zambia Zaire and Zimbabwe.

Hutu's and Tutsi's are ethnicities, not tribes. Get it right when you get to RWANDA :)
And nowadays making hutu/tutsi distinction is not allowed unless you are referring to the past.
Great production man keep up the good work. Happy new subscriber right here.
theoisback And dont forget the Twa
I'm not even African and I can pretty comfortably assign most of the people in the video to one of the two groups. If the person looks like they might be from Nigeria then they're Hutu and if they look like they might be from Ethiopia then they're Tutsi. There is a wikipedia article called "Origins of Hutu, Tutsi and Twa" that goes into detail especially on genetic evidence.
Cameron H. you would be wrong to base your judgement only on physical caracreristics. a tustsi can look like he might be from nigeria but being in fact tustsi because his/her father's ethnic group. that's more than physical appearance.
Rwanda forever
theoisback don’t forget twa idiot try to be smart remember first person in Rwanda was twa Nd hutu tuts from Somalia Ethiopia get it right
This video is well done. The narrator has an excellent grasp of his material and covers a wide range of subjects in ways understandable to those of us watching him. Props for a job well done. Did I see the majestic Watusis in "King Solomon's Mines," starring Steward Granger years and years ago?

This was AMAZING!!! If only I would have watched this BEFORE I wandered into Burundi like a knucklehead!!! Definitely have a crazy time in Burundi, and had no idea of the conflict. (To my defense, I DID hire a guide, but he was worthless).
This lesson was fantastic and explained so much. Can't wait to see the rest...what a great series!!!
Just a note, Tanganyika wasn't the former name of Tanzania, Tanzania was a union between Zanzibar and Tanganyika.
True...
"The name "Tanzania" was created as a clipped compound of the names of the two states that unified to create the country: Tanganyika and Zanzibar."-Wikipedia
This whole time I didn't realize that you were doing this series alphabetically. Damn I feel stupid.

You answered your own question
Burundi, officially the Republic of Burundi, is a landlocked country in the Great Rift Valley where the African Great Lakes region and East Africa converge. It is bordered by Rwanda to the north, Tanzania to the east and southeast, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the west; Lake Tanganyika lies along its southwestern border. The capital cities are Gitega and Bujumbura.
Thank you for these videos I personally appreciate it a whole heap
I've been watching the episodes starting from Afghanistan and everything such as the quality of the content has improved. Nice work!
I left my Country Burundi 🇧🇮 when I was 9 years old and I’m 32 years old now. Missed my beautiful Country so bad.
Sorry you had to leave. I hope you can help getting Burundi back on its feet as the Burundians I met (like most Africans) are very kind people.
Love your videos.
Paul, you're honestly so amazing, and you deserve many more subscribers!
Only just discovered your channel. Best channel ever by far!
This is my beautiful country🇧🇮
Hey, this is a great video, but there is an issue with the ending. Burundi and president Nkurunzinza have currently very strained relations with Rwanda, accusing president Kagame of backing the 2015 mutinies, and having a hand in the assassinaton of several high-ranking Burundian officers. Furthermore, Bujumbura has accused Kigali of acting as a safe-haven for anti-Nkurunziza forces. So I'd say that at the moment, Rwanda is the current government's worst nightmare, absolutly not close friend.
What!?!? I was just looking for the Cambodia video only to find that it's not yet uploaded. I reached the end so quickly... this channel is addictive man.
Thanks for this video! Just met a really kind person from Burundi and needed to get more information!! ❤️
I can help You
You can ask me every You would like to know
Well well!
This is was a lot information about Burundi.
And I must say that I'm impressed at how informed you were about Burundi especially on classes and tribes of the citizens rather than ethnic groups as most do think of it.
We all know that what matters is peace and development for all 😊
Anyways Burundi is actually a beautiful country with good food, weather and full of many people with potentials !
● We call our country the heart of Africa ❤ 🌍
"Cambodia is coming up next!"
Here's a great tip: AVOID THE LAND MINES!
amazing video, so well researched, chemestry, hutus, tutsies, ruanda, so much fun info!!!
Hi how are you
You have got an awesome series here...Cheers!
The "problem" with the river borders with Tanzania are because these semilunar lakes were part of the river. The water some times brakes through and the river is strait again. So these are old river borders. It's "something like" the Croatian and Serbian borders, not the same but close enough.
Those 'nearby creeks' are oxbows, which are former bits of the river. Don't know, but they might mark the river at a time when a border was drawn.
This is honestly one of the most fascinating country videos Paul has ever done (high praise indeed), and I can't believe I haven't watched it until today.
Hi looking good
Love the vids, keep up the great work

You are awesome as always man! I wish you could make a video everyday :))
The river borders Tanzania claims are not "creeks" but are oxbow lakes, a former area of a meandering stream that has been cut off as the river's direction changes. The Mississippi River has many oxbow lakes.Tanzania likely made the border claim in the past when the river ran along that path, which is now different today due to the stream's meandering.
Love to Burundi 🇧🇮 from Belgium 🇧🇪
We love Belgium too
But Belgium colonized burundi
I really like your channel. I just want to clarify, that the reason the border between Burundi and Tanzania has those enclaves on either side f the existing river is because the course of the river has changed since the border was established in the 1920's. The border jumps to oxbow lakes that are left over depressions along the old river route. The same thing happened between the border between Illinois and Missouri along the Mississippi River. One good example of this is at 37°54'7.70"N; 89°55'12.38"W.

Marcos Lebron I will send you witchcraft...
He didn't mention one of the few things I associate with Burundi. Drummers. Their mass drumming inspired the double drumming of Bow Wow Wow and Adam and the Ants. It's not really geography but I just thought I'd mention it.
I was also half expecting that! It also inspired Stomp; the percussion group back in the late 90's, early 2000's
Bro. Your content is gold. When we make money we will definitely contribute to your patreon.
true! I've been to that lake shore, it's definitely a great getaway spot!
This 2:10 borders look like that because they were created alongside the "meanders" and later the river got straightened by erosion. :D You might see same thing in Croatian border with Serbia (it has made a border conflict between them)
+Hoodiecrow I live in Croatia and I think we consider the border to change as the river changes, and Serbia thinks the border should stay the same as it was when negotiated. Or vice versa, I'm not sure. This has created a kind of no man's land thing (to Serbia it is no man's land, to us it is serbian territory)
And that shithole liberland happened.
+Hoodiecrow those are not "meanders", they are called "oxbows"
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxbow_lake
and if you look up the border of Wisconsin and Minnesota, you will see border disputes based on historical annotation of where the river ran, with land lost due to oxbows. The "meandering" is the movement of the river itself.
rarelibra I've never said they are meanders. I said that they were created by them by "straightening the river" (or by process of side erosion (which takes places in meanders) which cuts off parts of the river - saying correctly)
Hoodiecrow sorry for the misunderstanding. We're both on the same page, it seems.
+rarelibra Yeah :D but it's nice to see other people interested in things like that here
Just revisiting this to say: THANK YOU, BURUNDI!
Judging from the picture i think the boarder at 2:10 used to run along the river, but due to erosion the river now runs along a differnt path. I love your work btw, keep it up :)
Great video, glad you were recommended to me.

"Each province has roughly the same number of people."
Wait, a situation in which provinces/countries/states/whatevers are partitioned in such a way so as to have equal populations ACTUALLY HAPPENED?!! Alright, who else has seen the map of the US in which all 50 states have been redrawn so's to have the same number of people in each state and also the map of Europe in which all of the countries have been redrawn in the same fashion? Because otherwise this statement's gonna be bewildering otherwise.
Also, it's time to learn some chemistry-- LATER!!

Paul, I have a suggestion. Maybe you should talk about some of the countries' military too, like recent conflicts in the past 50 years, have they been invaded, how strong is their military, etc. Its just a suggestion that could bring more views and could help people who are mainly interested in topics about conflict. Just a though!

Me to
I saw it in sixth grade. Taking ap human geo next year (10th)
I saw it in religious studies we learned about evil and suffering
Hotel Rwanda contains a lot of inaccuracies though...
Oliver Anderson Europeans destroyed cultures of Asia and Africa
This was a very good !!! I liked it! However you mix burundi's history with rwandan history and it's understandable!!we are soo similar!! rwanda was a confederation of small kingdoms and chieftains with hutu and tusti kings , Burundi however wasn't a tusti kingdom but a kingdom ruled by ganwas, who are still considered a etnic group of their own. And after the colonizers left the president who did a coup d'état to dethrone the king (ndayizeye the son of mwabutsa, i think) was Micombero a "hima" another ethinc group who had been marginalized during the kingdom era. I sincerely hope tho that this labels (hutu , tutsi, twa, hima and ganwa) are becoming more and more irrelevant!!! And by the way this where indeed ethnic groups and not social classes but ethnic groups that had mixed and blended over centuries to the point of having one language and one culture, in Burundi what mattered was your clan ( big family) not ethinc group.
And also part the Burundian kingdom was put into the tanzanian territory 😊
@@Chilbuli_Baby the name was Ndizeye not ndayizeye and Burundian kingdom was never put in Tanzanian territory stop your nonsense. Very big part or big territory of Tanzania in western Tanzania was belonging to Burundi like kigoma province of Tanzania was founded in Burundi long ago before Tanzania conquered it. And all you have to know is that in Burundi we have 3 tribes only the Tutsis and hutus and twa and the Ganwa and Bahima were just clans of Tutsis not tribes stop lying people the only thing is that the Ganwa were the first class of Tutsis to rule Burundian kingdom they had power and they were so rich than others clans but all you should know is that the Baganwa or Ganwa was not a tribe but just a clan of Tutsis and these are the good and real Tutsis not even mixed with other tribes
Love this episode.
You should also do Rwanda
About border rivers: those creeks and lakes are former riverbeds (of the main/larger river). It is possible that border originally followed the river, but the river has since changed it's course. It would be easier to keep the old border, because of land ownership.
