Welcome to the little prince of the chocolate islands riding a razor sharp toothed amphibian with a magic unicorn-horn powered by the center of the earth (You'll understand all of that if you watch this video) and KEITH WEARS A HAT!! HOLY CRAP!!! YOU CAN'T MISS IT! Enjoy this next episode #SaoTomeAndPrincipe!
Surprisingly russian and portugese languages sound pretty similar to those who speak one of those languages. It's like you hear something in the distance and you guess it's your language but you can't hear the separate words
Man finally I see some people mentioning this. I once sat in an airplane to Lissabon and when the security announcement came I genuinely thought they were speaking Russian. It sounds so similar. Although, every time I mention this to a Portuguese or Russian speaking person, they laugh their asses off.
@@Lopro94 As a portuguese, I notice it every time I see a Brazilian trying to speak with a Portuguese accent, they seem like a slavic person that happens to know some words in portuguese. The languages are completely different but i can see that can sound pretty similar. it has happened to me several times to hear someone talking, oh it's portuguese, only to find out a second later that i couldn't understand a single word.
Definitely a country with a special place in my heart! I've been to São Tomé in 2018, without a doubt my favorite country on earth, much love from Portugal "Leve Leve" 🇸🇹

Anybody else think it’s cool Geography Now did 4 different continents for the last 4 countries? North America- Saint Vincent 🇻🇨 Australia/ Oceania- Samoa 🇼🇸 Europe- San Marino 🇸🇲 Africa- São Tomé 🇸🇹 (now) Asía next Saudí Arabia 🇸🇦
I was fortunate enough to visit STP last year, as the last country in my quest to visit all counties with an "&" in their name. First things first: the people are some of the friendliest I've ever met. Everyone smiles and I felt very safe, day and night. I loved the food. These people know how to grill a fish! I don't speak Portuguese, but my Spanish is bad enough that it can pass as Portuguese, so I got by with Spanish and French. The nature and landscapes are stunning. It is definitely a place I'd like to return to.
Hey Barbs, Brazilians know about this country too.. I'm impressed about the food is close to ours in someway. Other things your Portuguese accent is nice and to say the ã is close to French. Thanks for the great episode
Eu acho que nós sabemos quem eles são, mas não temos o mínimo contado (sendo bem sincero, nós brasileiros deveríamos nos aproximar mais da cultura dos outros países lusofonicos)
@@felipec.cesarini6447 Bom, não sabemos nada aprofundado e também acho que seria muito bom ter essa aproximação. Mas pelo menos a maioria sabe que existe/já ouviu falar.. a julgar pelo tamho do país e o conhecimento sobre ele pelo mundo..

Plus, I think there are stated plans to go back and redo early episodes once they finish up the Original list.... Personally I think the need to Republic of China before the renovations, but that's just me.

7:48 - You actually had the right pronunciation (the “cão” part)! The drunk-russian-speaking-spanish trick never fails. Also, I never realized that Almada Negreiros was actually born in São Tomé. That’s great! About the relationship between STP and Portugal, one of the reasons it is so close is because, although there was an independence movement, it operated in Gabon, and there was never a serious armed conflict. And it is true that Portugal sends a lot of expertise to São Tomé, not only military. If I can recall, my Geography teacher told us that her husband, who worked on the Merchant Navy, was sent there to instruct and help them develop their own shipping activity. And we in Portugal also love São Tomé - it’s like Cabo Verde, but Tropical.
Portugal só errou em aceitar o Ultimato britânico. Hoje deveria apoiar uma Federação de Angola, Zâmbia e Moçambique e formar um grande país africano de Língua Portuguesa
@@RhodianColossus Agh then there is hope ! Actually, I only wish this channel never ceases, imagine a future where each country will have had 10+ episodes already O_o Let's make it happen!!!
So many similarities with my home island of Réunion. Got discovered by the Portuguese (but they didn't stay so the French took over), volcanic, a lot of mixed ancestry people, microclimates and so on and on. But Réunion decided to stay French (no independence movement). While kinda "comfortable" (the island is well developed), it's also very unknown.

Sao Tome is one of the countries that had diplomatic relations with Taiwan, received years of financial, technological, agricultural, and medical aids from Taiwan, but was bribed away by China with a single stroke of a pen. Nothing against the people, but the government is despicable.
The same bs happened to my country Dominican Republic, the corrupt only see their own gains, not the improvement of the people they are meant to serve, the government abandon a fellow democracy for a totalitarian regime known for their disdain for even the most basic human rights, being pathological liers, having a big propaganda machine to nearly the point of brainwashing and undermining every country they touch overtime with their debt traps, all just for money 😔😔😔.
Such a lovely video about Sao Tome, and you focus on a 5 second excerpt about their relations with Taiwan. China essentially did the same thing as Taiwan, paying for support through investments. Except China is much wealthier so it can offer more.
@@stefanking98 at least Taiwan don't forcefully make their own citizens disappear forever just because of some "problematic" comments on internet or deny the existence of the Covid-19 until it was far too late to control.
@@chingizzhylkybayev8575 I would rather make business with a micronation such as San Marino than see my country being seized of its ports and natural resources thx to a Chinese debt traps buddy
My country (Australia) is so heavily influenced by China its sad, I’m glad our prime minister is finally standing up but it’ll likely wreck our economy
I’m Sao Tomean and that’s very good ! I’m proud and thankful ! Btw the Portuguese said that the islands were inhabited, but we found proof that there were commercial trades with several African countries including Ghana before all the colonization
5:22 In Portuguese, "r" is always guttural at the beginning of words; "rr" is how we write this sound when it happens between vowels - e.g. "Guitarra" ([electric] guitar) would be pronounced roughly as "ghee-tah-hah". Your pronunciation is quite spot-on here.
Just some feedback: Keith has to do a better job of pretending to know what he's saying, instead of lazily reading his script with his eyes fixated nowhere near the audience. He sometimes sound uninterested which also makes me uninterested in what he's saying. Barb and Noah for me are the best presenters. Clear in what they're saying with excellent rapport with the audience.
I agree, that whole "not giving a fuck" attitude is not that funny. I still like Keith, but the best episodes for me are the ones where there's only one native guest in the episode, which have a bit more serious tone, like Russia was.
Aw thanks Denis. If you want to see more of me Art and I got our own channel going here if you want to join us on this channel. 🙂 Rock on dude 🤟🏻 -Keith
Mix mean you have white and black parents. Do you have white parents? If you don’t have it you not mix ( mulato ) you just black maybe with light skin.
Thank you for this video! Been fascinated with São Tomé é Príncipe for years and have learned Portuguese for when I can visit someday - It is my biggest dream to go there! 🤩🇸🇹
I stumbled upon this channel and am now hooked. I consider myself well-traveled, but had no idea about most of the content here. I loved the humor, the category of topics to understand the place, and the large amount of pictures and video.
One of the funniest episodes in recent memory I have to say. Especially at 4:52 with nerd Barbs. My only criticism of the video is that at 18:40 with Keith showcasing Bulawê music it would have been the greatest opportunity ever to say "Bulawê will... blow you away!" (hint: it rhymes). C'mon Keith it would have been so great!!!
Me Neither they should after they have completed all the countries remake the A and B countries also on Instagram barbs announced that once he had finished the latest country he will remake the “ Afghanistan “ episode

Quick introduction to the Portuguese R:
If it starts a word or if there are two RR together, then it sounds like the French R
(e.g Roçais and Forró have the same sound)
If it is by itself in the middle of a word, then it sounds like the Spanish R
Foro (forum) ≠ forró (race)
And if it finishes a word then it sounds like the American English R
(most verb endings)
Of course, it varies greatly with different accents, but that's a quick and generic overview
@@3dsaulgoodman43 Like if you are doing a K, but you vibrate instead of doing a stop.
Gabriel Gomes Freire
Fascinating, thanks!
Just a correction: the second case is only when between vowels, otherwise the first rule applies (ex: Honra)
Worth noting that in Brazil it sounds different, still French r but much closer to just h
For English speakers, treat RR as an h. This is Brazilian but is basically the main accent
Portugal episode : 19:45
São tomé e principe episode : 22:35
And Brazil : 12:19 minutes...
Seaker It has to do with the change in the show format. Back in the Brazil episode, there were no guests or cohosts, meaning it went by faster, as well as new segments being added like the animal segment and the music segment.
Plus, I think there are stated plans to go back and redo early episodes once they finish up the Original list.... Personally I think the need to Republic of China before the renovations, but that's just me.
Why Brazil so short?

@@stefanking98 at least Taiwan don't forcefully make their own citizens disappear forever just because of some "problematic" comments on internet or deny the existence of the Covid-19 until it was far too late to control.
@@chingizzhylkybayev8575 I would rather make business with a micronation such as San Marino than see my country being seized of its ports and natural resources thx to a Chinese debt traps buddy
My country (Australia) is so heavily influenced by China its sad, I’m glad our prime minister is finally standing up but it’ll likely wreck our economy
I love Geography Now, Greetings from The Philippines 😀👊
We love you too dude. Thanks for being here🤟🏻 - Keith and Art
I’m Sao Tomean and that’s very good ! I’m proud and thankful ! Btw the Portuguese said that the islands were inhabited, but we found proof that there were commercial trades with several African countries including Ghana before all the colonization
5:22 In Portuguese, "r" is always guttural at the beginning of words; "rr" is how we write this sound when it happens between vowels - e.g. "Guitarra" ([electric] guitar) would be pronounced roughly as "ghee-tah-hah". Your pronunciation is quite spot-on here.
Ilhés das Rolas, São Tomé e Príncipe 🇸🇹:
having equator monument.
Pontianak, Indonesia 🇮🇩:
"Hmm... We should hang out sometimes"
May Macapá (Brazil) enjoy the party too?
C'mon ... we even have a football pitch divided by the equator line.
@@3dsaulgoodman43 Boy, I'm myself an Indonesian and tbh I just know about this.
@@Rogerioapsandrade Well, it's great tho. But c'mon, I'm talking about equator monument and I think Brazil have one too.
WOOOOOO!
@@3dsaulgoodman43 Nah pontianak is a malay word, we called it here Kuntilanak
I did actually know sao tome and principe even if I am not Portuguese
Me too im Czech
This was my favorite episode so far. This is hilarious
Noah gave the best pronunciation of the Portuguese words. By far. Congratulations.
yesssss!!!! m so glad I found this video, my family is from Sao Tome and no-one ever knows where is it
So happy to see São Tomé e Príncipe here!
Thank you!
Barbs: You gotta take a ferry to get there
Also barbs: shows Art on a wooden kayak
Thanks for the mention Brady! :) You should join Keith and I on our new channel when you have a minute! -Art
ACTION REACTION! You can bet that I'm gonna watch it! You two are great companions to Barbs on this channel, I hope your other channel does well! :)
Nigel Marvin That’s true. 🤷🏻♂️😂
Paul: Saudi arabia is next.
Me: *Finally, after 5000 years!*
as someone from uk count yourself lucky

I mean, they already have enough oil. The largest, just saying. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Lol. Nah, you're more likely to have your country in the original studio, + more popularity.
Just in time for Eid!
Just some feedback: Keith has to do a better job of pretending to know what he's saying, instead of lazily reading his script with his eyes fixated nowhere near the audience. He sometimes sound uninterested which also makes me uninterested in what he's saying. Barb and Noah for me are the best presenters. Clear in what they're saying with excellent rapport with the audience.
I agree, that whole "not giving a fuck" attitude is not that funny. I still like Keith, but the best episodes for me are the ones where there's only one native guest in the episode, which have a bit more serious tone, like Russia was.
I agree. He seemed more passionate about this at the beginning, and more genuine also. I think your feedback is important for the series.
That’s why he’s so funny.
Keith is just gold at 17:41 and 18:02
São Tomé is where a hermit crab bit the hell out of my hand :(
Lool
Frances Atty oof
Barby: ”...it’s absolutely breathtaking.”
*No, you’re breathtaking*
No, you’r breathtaking
"You are all breathtaking! "
*you're
He is a gorgeous man.
Jeremy Siple
Indeed he is
We need more of Keith, love him
Aw thanks Denis. If you want to see more of me Art and I got our own channel going here if you want to join us on this channel. 🙂 Rock on dude 🤟🏻 -Keith
I am going on tourism to São Tomé e Príncipe and enjoyed your video. Thanks!
The quality jumped with Noah's setup, nice camera
When you are so early, every message is "first"
ALIEN BSG underrated comment
I like how whenever the next episode has a larger country Barbs always says “the big guy”
I’m intrigued by the possibility of living in the city of São Tomé, on the island of São Tomé, in the country of São Tomé and Principe
Love everything about this video🙌🏼 I'm mixed and live in São Tomé, good job of describing the country💚
Your country looks awesome 🙀 been wanting to visit for years - hopefully someday!
Mix mean you have white and black parents. Do you have white parents? If you don’t have it you not mix ( mulato ) you just black maybe with light skin.
@@kellyhope children of two biracials i don't know a name for that
Thank you for this video! Been fascinated with São Tomé é Príncipe for years and have learned Portuguese for when I can visit someday - It is my biggest dream to go there! 🤩🇸🇹
Sad but true... I learn of Príncipe from Assassin's Creed: Black Flag. lol
Me too also i like portuguese colonizators the most because they have beatiful ships and blue uniforms lol
Me too
Keith is always more baked than a batch of brownies 😂
can't stand the guy
@@FarfettilLejl i always skip his segment
Noah was the only one who said the "ão" correct.
I’ve never heard of this country in my life! Thank you for this channel ♥️
I stumbled upon this channel and am now hooked. I consider myself well-traveled, but had no idea about most of the content here.
I loved the humor, the category of topics to understand the place, and the large amount of pictures and video.
One of the funniest episodes in recent memory I have to say. Especially at 4:52 with nerd Barbs.
My only criticism of the video is that at 18:40 with Keith showcasing Bulawê music it would have been the greatest opportunity ever to say "Bulawê will... blow you away!" (hint: it rhymes). C'mon Keith it would have been so great!!!
Me as a portuguese that in summer vacations went to São Tomé and Príncipe and loved
Afghanistan episode :- 7 mins
Sao Tome & Principle :- 22 mins
*yeah that's equality*
I'd hazard a guess that Barby will probably go back and redo some of those early episodes once the core series is finished up.
I have never. Ever. EVER. Subscribed to a channel after just one video. Until now.
Great video! Definitely a country I knew nothing about before the episode 👍
Fiquei impressionado com esse país! Saudações brasileiras a todos os Santomenses!
22 minutes on a microstate ?
Remember when even large countries barely got 10 minutes ?
Me Neither the Vatican City episode will probably be an 1 hour long
@@smaviation9171 he seriously needs to remake the A&B.
The first actual quality Episode came with China, everything before that was very subpar.
Probably because Keith reads so slowly. Seriously, does he need eyeglasses?
Me Neither they should after they have completed all the countries remake the A and B countries also on Instagram barbs announced that once he had finished the latest country he will remake the “ Afghanistan “ episode
I think it's a fair trade-off for having to wait years to get an episode about your country.
Olá, sou de São Tomé & Príncipe e gostei do vídeo...
Saint Kitts & Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and The Grenadines, Samoa, San Marino, Sao Tome and Principe. What a streak of great videos about very small countries.
Love the graphics! The continuous improvement is remarkable! 👏 👏
