    Fun facts about this episode!
    1. That Nigerian prince skit was kind of based on a real email I got like 8 years ago.
    2. Yes, as a part time job I do hit jobs for the Duolingo bird when he's on his days off.
    Thanks to all you Nigerian geograpeeps for helping out in this video, and especially Benjamin and Claudia for being IN the video! You guys rock!

    As a Ghanaian, my biggest wish is for Nigeria to do well. Nigeria is like a rising tide that will lift all boats (countries) in west Africa and on the continent. Despite their challenges, I always defend them and wish them well. A few changes have to be done but we will get there. Salute

    One thing I’ve noticed about Nigerians. They are usually very good at what they do, either good or bad. There is no ground for mediocrity. They are either evil geniuses who will sell their own children to get rich or excellent over zealous and ambitious bunch. They never want to be left behind. They just never give up, they just keep trying. They are also very confident people who may be perceived as arrogant bunch by other non Nigerians, but the reality is they love everybody. They can be friends with literally everybody once you get past the bravado. They can also be the life of the party or that annoying boisterous uncle at your birthday party. In all, they are generally nice and warm hearted people who will also push you to succeed. Just observations coming from a Jamaican who’s always had the fortunes of being around Nigerians from a young age. Well my step father is Nigerian. Married my mom when I was ten.

      A diverse world or an urban world are the best maps for playing the entire world. Of course there's no China or North Korea, and India only has like New Delhi. I think you can get Hong Kong though, and there's often Taiwan. You can pick the country yourself or city.
      When you play you use the compass and click on the flag to return to your original spot. Full 5000 points if you're less than 30 meters from your original location.
      Currently there's an annoying glitch on the game -__-

      These areas and many more truly belongs to India and some parts of the areas are illegally occupied by Pakistan and China

      OK lemme make it clear, Nigeria is into two major Regions that's the South and North. The southerners are the Insurgency free areas, whom are lively, those u meet mainly on Internet's and predominantly Christians, while the Northerners are the Ruling Regions predominantly Muslims, insurgency areas, Conservative and with meagre Human development. Don't see Nigeria as a well mixed Country where a few people can be used to explain Lot's of us.

      Absolutely. I'm Puerto Rican, but I lived in Katsina until I was 12.
      When I came back back, I noticed how much of what my family considered to be "our culture" felt a little like knock-off Nigerian.
      Don't get me wrong, I love Puerto Rico. The Taino and Arawak elements will forever have my heart, but it's very clear there a lot of the influences came from and it's not Spain.

      Can remember My Heritage made a mistake with their DNA tests about twelve years ago and a lot of people in the UK and Ireland were getting DNA test results saying they were 98.5% British/Irish/European and 1.5% Nigerian. It was some sort of glitch in the reporting but it took them years to work it out. I was one of those folks who had grown quite proud of my tiny, yet surprising Nigerian heritage. Now they've taken it away again, I kinda resented losing it LOL.

    The first time I heard of Nigeria and met a person from there was when I was 10 and my P.E teacher happened to be from there. He was the best P.E teacher I've ever had. He encouraged us and taught us well, and of course, whenever we had any football class he got really excited, and sometimes even joined the match. I'm happy to know more about the country he is from.
    Cheers everyone!
