When I'm going from Harties(near pretoria) to Durban or Port Elizibeth(Qbergha) it's fenominal seeing how the mountains and plantlife changes. It's the coolest thing.
SA's people are equally as diverse as it's climate, geography, biodiversity and mineral resources! We are a rainbow of people, very difficult to keep everyone happy. Never a dull moment, but the beauty of the country lifts our spirits.

Tell the truth you saw blacks in confined in "locations" while all of the land is owned by whites 50 million south african 20 million in one province what do you think
South African here. Extremely well researched, I thank you. Don't worry about pronunciation, we have so many different accents and languages (all of us are at least bilingual, but some - mostly black South Africans - speak as many as 9 languages) that pronunciation is a moot point. Subscribed!
Agreed, I was also impressed with the research behind it. Especially when Mafadi was actually visible in the picture they used when talking about it. A few minor errors, but nothing serious.
I don’t know a single black person who can speak 9 languages. I work in courts everyday and not even the interpreters who are authorised by judiciary to work in the court can speak 9 languages. You have the Whites who speak Afrikaans and English. A lot speak the ruling language from where they grew up (Jhb you have Zulu speaking/understanding whites, Pta you have sotho whites). Then the blacks speak their tribal language or a version thereof which mixes words from the dominant languages in the area, like “Pretorian” which includes Afrikaans (for the days for example saying Ke a boya Maandag) Sotho for the rest, and Zulu for words neither of the other language commonly use. Long story short, out of the 80 million people here, no more than 10000 probably speak more than 4 languages.
@@TinyFord1 Well, I'm bilingual, as are most people I know. And the Black people I know usually speak even more than 2. So they're definitely ahead of us.
So much love from South Africa❤. I actually in a place called Qwa-Qwa, every morning i get to see the Drakenberg moutains. when i was growing up we used to head our livestock there😊. and during the holiday's we would cross the mountain to go to lesotho, Free of charge. there is a big dam called "Fika Patso" which gets most of its water from Lesotho. Not only is this place beautiful but it has alot of history, during Apartheid most black people were forced to stay there. it has a rich black history. I apologize for this long comment😂, i just got so happy seeing my country being talked about❤❤❤❤.
I’m from Elliot, a farming town sitting on the Drakenberg mountains. Our weather is so dramatic. Mornings are very foggy, towards the afternoon it becomes sunny and windy, later in the day it’s crisp cold and we can get rain/ snow depending if it’s summer or winter. You can wear 3-4 different types of outfits in 1 day. We are Xhosa people but the blanket is a must and a sun hat too 😂😂. My village consists of both Sotho and Xhosa people .
Back in the 90s we drove through Lesotho to go see the building of Katse Dam. We got a little bit lost in the mountains and ran out of road then ran out of track. Put a plank over the edge of a ravine to cross over 😱 in the 4x4 bakkie we were in. We came upon a small village of about 30 people, some of whom had not seen white people before. They had prayed for someone to come take a sick gogo to Thaba Tetse clinic. So we were welcomed as from their God.
@@wianprinsloo2817If you have a positive and pragmatic mindset, South Africa is also a wonderful country to live in. The people are friendly, our climate is mild, the landscapes are varied and beautiful and our fresh produce is among the best in the world. Our entire coastline is a tourist attraction too. And we have a diversity of plants and animals. Most of South Africa’s developed areas look and feel like Australia. Same-sex marriage is legal, weed is legal, we don’t have a despot government. It is also a big country (there are many amazing small country towns in South Africa where property is still affordable for middle-class South Africans). There are MANY positive things about this country!!! I work as a teacher in Johannesburg and plan to retire in Knysna/Plettenburg Bay in the Garden Route.
A big problem in S. A. is the present govt . Afta the recent elections, a GNU or Govt of National Unity , has bin proposed. One can only hope that it'll somehow work out.

@@MariGrace22he used plural for people collectively refering to khoi San and strandloopers specifically the khoi is definitely wrong but strandloopers have a much smaller range then the San so more chances for a genetic bottleneck to make them more distinct while the San has more chances to interact with other civilizations

You should do Zimbabwe. Seriously, some parts look like the Serengeti plains, others like the Scottish Highlands and incredibly varied micro- climates.
I'm so grateful for bring born in this country, and being able to stay year despite its turbulent politics. Back in the nationalist era, they called South Africa the most beautiful country in the world, and I thought that was just bias talking. But the older I get the more I realize how beautifully diverse our country really is.
Dude. That "the older I get" part is real. Not just regarding beauty. But putting aside our issues with the crimerate, there's a lot of things we take for granted here.
@@theonaude7023 You provide quite limited information so its hard to give advice. I am in Pretoria working in IT, and has never experienced a scarcity of work. But ofcause, that depend on your profession. Our market is much smaller than other places in the world, so more specialised niche fields might be a problem. And ofcause any position that is heavily targetted by BEE. I think your best bet would be to wait for the elections this month. It promises to be _very_ interesting. And yeah, we'll end up with a turbulent and inefficient coalition government, but that is a _good thing._ The best government for South Africa is one that gets out of the way of ordinary people trying to fix what they broke, so, yeah, I actually expect oppertunities to grow after the elections.
I've read much about the British Empire and its wars in South Africa. Often the geography and less often the climate are mentioned but usually only in passing. This video helps round out my learning of this subject. As always it was comprehensive and educational. Thank you
I live in Cape Town an I am so fortunate to be surrounded by our beautiful fynbos, the protea that is South Africa national flowers growing wild here. It is amazing. I loved you vidoe. Thanks!
I was born and raised in Cape Town (I'm still living here) and there's never a moment when I get bored of our environment. Even seeing Table Mountain every day is just always a blessing.
Thanks; this was very interesting. I live in Pretoria and will be going down to the lowveld in a few days. I always find it fascinating to watch the change in the landscape as you travel through the different biomes that the N4 cuts through.

It made me feel emotional to learn about all of these different places I have been. Thanks and keep up the good work.

I thoroughly enjoyed this video and was consistently impressed with the accuracy and quality of this information - perfectly presented with really sweet graphics showing really well mapped diagrams of all these different regions and areas. This was a pleasure to watch. Thank you!
Im South African and live in Gqeberha aka Port Elizabeth. Beautiful place. Right now it's 17h05 in the afternoon and around 31 degrees in temperature. It's Autumn but it's not unusual to have that kind of weather here. Differs not only from day to day but hour to hour sometimes. Could be hot now, windy later, then rain and thunder and 5 min later, something else. The biggest misconception I think people have of this country other than the level of crime, is the whole thing about wild animals roaming the streets. To a certain extent only (no more than in other countries), there is some truth in that. If you study at Nelson Mandela University and you leave your sorm open, there is a possibility of monkeys getting into your room. Reside tally speaking though, other than the occasional hyrax moving into your yard or cows eating grass in parks or on the side of the road, nothing too out of the ordinary. Beautiful country.
@@kitsin326 😂 I have yet to hear anyone call it that in person tbh. No disrespect intended but I think if they're going to change the name, change it to something that has collective and sentimental value to everyone. Madiba Bay would actually have been really pretty. I've never been anywhere near the western cape. Hope to travel there at some point.
I live in SA and I have been lucky enough to go to the Drakensburg (or just "The Burg" as we call it") and I will never forget it! The Burg has to be one of my favourite places on the planet. Well worth a visit!
When I drove back from the Eastern Cape to Cape Town, the change in scenery is amazing. The weather as well, we experienced a thunderstorm and scorching heat in the span of an hour.
Thanks for the video. In my great grandfather’s diary he wrote going to sleep in the Karoo while masses of springboks migrate past them - waking up the next morning with the herd still coming past.
Great video! Loved it! The meterology of South Africa is absolutely fascinating. The high pressures off the coasts and the interior low pressure create some extraordinary weather. Thanks for the great video!
Woah you included bontepark park in your map of nature reserves!! I lived right near it in Swellendam. I didn’t think it would be brought up in a video like this but thats awesome
I love your videos. They are amazing. Can i ask you if you intend to do review on the geography of the caucasus? I would be incredibly interested in learning geographical details about the region where i grew up!
As a South African, I can say most, if not all, are immensely proud and boastful about our wonderful and beautiful country. It is a deep shame that it has been ruined by our corrupt, selfish and arrogant criminal government the ANC. But please, continue to visit our country, we are accommodating, friendly and we honestly need your investment to keep us going. Rant over!
I accidentally landed onto your channel, and I am impressed and glad to get a source for my Environmental Interpretation and Education programme. Thank you.
Wow! This is beautiful, taking me back to my Geography and History classes at school. Now that I am old, I appreciate the nature, and the beauty of my country even more. Thank you or this beautiful video.
I am immensely privileged to have travelled widely across this beautiful country. You have done a great job at explaining the geographical diversity. This is truly “a world in one country” 😊
One of my favourite parts of living in South Africa is the food. The Cape Town area is very similar to some parts of Italy, giving us world famous wine and olive oil, and within an hour of eating at an fancy Italian restaurant, you can find some Indian food, or Malaysian food, or native African food, or all three of those mixed together in one meal
Again ,let's not forget the poor , e.g. the Cape ' coloureds' who subsist on one meal per day . For those earning well, the country is a ' ( ltd ) paradise ' .
I'm a South African environment scientist and I don't know some of the stuff you've mentioned here. Where did you get all this information? This is interesting.
One of my favourite things is the fact we have the Drakensberg…which translates to Dragon’s Mountain. And let me tell you, the lighting that happens in those mountains is like clockwork. Late afternoon everyday in summer, the “dragons” come out.
Very interesting video.! I have subscribe to your channel just now, for this is the content I enjoy and finding interesting especially for I am from South Africa! Thank you for a most educational video! 😊
Fun fact - the famous Cape Fynbos does appear in one other place in the world too: on top of Mariepskop in the north of South Africa, on the edge of the Highveld/Lowveld.
Lesotho is geographically distinct, a border drawn conveniently around a unique and strange geography. This border magically makes people ignore its strangeness. I’m glad you explained it though I don’t feel the explanation fits the strangeness when I look on Google earth.
@@Jackrabfanyo "Once rich" is not the issue lol. We just need honest, hard-working people in government. So, unfortunately, neither the ANC (corrupt), MK (even more so), EFF (Julius is sus) or DA ( Ziionist and American puppts) would work well. But I suppose you have to pick your poison.
Thank you so much for this show I enjoyed it, we currently have a drought 8n the Griqualand West area with today's temp at 45degrees centigrade, and it should cool down to around 35 in a month or two, but the lamb and beef from here is the best there is we border the karoo.
The partial map you have displayed is spanned over quite a large area. Table Mountain is the bit closer to the top. The southernmost point is Cape Point Mountain. The whole bit spans over 52 km (32 miles) as the crow flies. If you want to drive from the City (The top side of Table Mountain) to the southern point, it will be a 73 km trip that will take 1 and a half hours.

One of my favourite things of living in South Africa is seeing how drastically the nature around you can change while driving around.

Looking forward to doing a coast to coast drive 🚗

I'm a South African environment scientist and I don't know some of the stuff you've mentioned here. Where did you get all this information? This is interesting.
South Africans Represent!!
Absolutely brilliant video 🇿🇦❤
Exceptional video💯. More on South Africa please.
One of my favourite things is the fact we have the Drakensberg…which translates to Dragon’s Mountain. And let me tell you, the lighting that happens in those mountains is like clockwork. Late afternoon everyday in summer, the “dragons” come out.
This was soo informative thanks.
Very interesting video.! I have subscribe to your channel just now, for this is the content I enjoy and finding interesting especially for I am from South Africa! Thank you for a most educational video! 😊
I love South Africa! I am planning to go there soon, thanks for the video.
Please visit us. Don't stay here
Excellent maps, info.
Thanks
I love how beautiful South Africa is.
Definitely wanted you to mention the Greenstone Belt!
Some of the most seamless transitions into an advertisement I've ever experienced on RUclips.
Fun fact - the famous Cape Fynbos does appear in one other place in the world too: on top of Mariepskop in the north of South Africa, on the edge of the Highveld/Lowveld.
The photo used at 2:45 is not of the fynbos region or cape floral kingdom, and rather of the Drakensberg
Lesotho is geographically distinct, a border drawn conveniently around a unique and strange geography. This border magically makes people ignore its strangeness. I’m glad you explained it though I don’t feel the explanation fits the strangeness when I look on Google earth.
I really want to visit every corner of my country!🙌🏾❤️
Thanks so much for the tutorial, I loved it
I'm a South African and I learned so much from this video!
Now we just need to get the zoo in charge ( ANC) to learn a thing or two aswell before they ruin this once rich place for good
@@Jackrabfanyo "Once rich" is not the issue lol. We just need honest, hard-working people in government. So, unfortunately, neither the ANC (corrupt), MK (even more so), EFF (Julius is sus) or DA ( Ziionist and American puppts) would work well. But I suppose you have to pick your poison.
Thank you so much for this show I enjoyed it, we currently have a drought 8n the Griqualand West area with today's temp at 45degrees centigrade, and it should cool down to around 35 in a month or two, but the lamb and beef from here is the best there is we border the karoo.
The partial map you have displayed is spanned over quite a large area. Table Mountain is the bit closer to the top. The southernmost point is Cape Point Mountain. The whole bit spans over 52 km (32 miles) as the crow flies. If you want to drive from the City (The top side of Table Mountain) to the southern point, it will be a 73 km trip that will take 1 and a half hours.
Outstanding channel! I love all of your brilliant videos.
Would love videos like these for all countries in the world
Love your efforts and details. Could you make a video con the Peruvian Altiplano Geography?
Great video Man! What software do you use for editing?
great video thanks man
I live in CapeTown. Love the mountain.
Very informal video , thank you !!
you missed the kaapvaal craton. It's really fascinating
Every South African needs to watch this video
We get these things called ‘burgwinds’ which are so nice
