      @Bobby Knuckles I don't know why you had to write a bunch of stuff when what he clearly stated in the first time is that GEOGRAPHICALLY Guyana is not a Caribbean nation
      It's like saying we Mexicans aren't latinos because we are in North America, when clearly we do have a Latin American CULTURE
      Also History does """ change""" geography, take a look at Panama, historically belonged to the Viceroyalty of New Granada, and then to the Gran Colombia, so HISTORICALLY Panama is more of a "South American" country than a Central American one
      I don't get how you can't understand that, by using your logic we can also say North African people have more to do with sub Saharan African people than with middle Easterners, or that those middle Easterners should all have some sort of Chinese culture because they are in Asia or something

      Guyana (pronounced /ɡaɪˈɑːnə/ or /ɡaɪˈænə/), officially the Co-operative Republic of Guyana, is a country on the northern mainland of South America. It is, however, often considered part of the Caribbean region because of its strong cultural, historical, and political ties with other Anglo-Caribbean countries and the Caribbean Community (CARICOM).

    2:21. It is kind of weird to be watching this bit in 2023, 6 years later, with the news that Venezuela has declared they're going to annex this very region to their country by force. And all of it, of course, because huge oil reserves have been discovered right off the coast, apparently bigger than the ones Venezuela currently has, which is literally one of the largest in the world.

    At one point you say something like "most people don't even have ancestry from the continent" like it was unusual. But tons of nations have this. Australia, New Zealand, Canada, USA, etc

      Yeah, the overwhelming majority of even the United States have ancestors from not-America. It's not that special.
      The main difference for Guyana is that there are more _Indians_ (from actual India, I mean) than elsewhere in the Americas (percentage-wise).

    I see lots of people debating on whether Guyana is a part of the Caribbean or not.Guyana, officially the Co-operative Republic of Guyana, previously the colony of British Guiana, is a sovereign state on the northern coast of South America that is culturally part of the Anglophone Caribbean.I do not mean to offend anyone pls no hate bruh.
