I don't see it happening soon because of Congo which is currently in de facto civil war state without fully integrated administrative regions. But without Congo it is possible
Hi toycat. Kenyan living in America here, the corruption in some of the countries in the proposed EAF will prevent it from existing until they get it cleaned up. DRC, South Sudan, Kenya also has corruption issues and there are a lot of people in east africa still living in villages and not paved roads and cities.
Don't listen to that waffler I'm also a Kenyan American and been to Kenya 4 times the wealth inequality is definitely real and corruption is very bad but Kenya has potential I'd say
Kenya used to have a dispute with Uganda over Migingo! Migingo is just 2,000 square meters and back in 2009, 131 people lived there, making it one of the most extremely densely populated islands anywhere! As the island is right by the Kenya-Uganda border, there was a dispute starting in June 2004 when Ugandan marine police pitched a tent on the island and raised the Ugandan flag and that of their police department. A diplomatic row arose in February 2009, when Kenyans living on Migingo were required to purchase special permits from the Ugandan government. Then in March 2009, Kenyan and Ugandan government officials went to the island to listen to the residents with the Ugandans still refusing to lower their flag. In May 2009, the Ugandan government agreed to lower the flag and changed their position that while the island was Kenyan, they were still concerned about Kenyan fishermen illegally fishing in Ugandan waters. In July 2009, a survey team went there and found that the island is 510 meters (1,670 feet) east of the Kenya-Uganda border within the lake, confirming that the island is indeed Kenyan.
Uganda has over 90 islands, so why were they fighting over migingo Island as if Kenyans are telling them to leave.Some of the major islands in uganda are sese, Musambwa,Ngamba,Bugala,bukasa,bunyonyi,Kalangala
Kenyan flag lore: The flag is based on that of Kenya African National Union (formerly just the Kenya African Union), the political party that led the fight for the independence of Kenya, which in turn their flag was inspired by the Pan-African flag. Upon independence in 1963, the white fimbriation and the shield were added. The color black represents the people of Kenya, red for the bloodshed during the fight for independence, and green for the country's landscape and natural wealth. The white fimbriation was added later to symbolize peace, honesty, purity, and innocence. The shield is a traditional Maasai shield and both it and the spears represent the defense of the values mentioned. In the Olympics, Kenya is known for having incredible long-distance runners and this is because most Kenyan elite runners hail from the same ethnic groups known as the Kalenjins and the Nandis. They make up ten percent of the nation but bring in a majority of the nation's marathon medals. Most of the Kenyan runners who dominate marathons worldwide train and live in the high-altitude Rift Valley. Iten for example, sits nearly 8,000 feet above sea level in western Kenya. Training at high altitudes contributes to a running dominance that makes running at lower elevation child’s play. They have a simple diet, good terrain with dirt roads and rolling hills, and the runners of course motivate kids to do it too.
i think the EAF is a good idea overall, but the union should be created with the og members that are more stable (in africa) and have more things in common (Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi) and they should left out the newest members that would bring a lot of problems and instability to the union like South Sudan (newest country in the world and very unstable) and DR congo (too big and constantly in armed conflict)
As Kenyan I think everyone should be allowed to join as long as they have the same spirit (union for betterment) and intention those who are not ready should also be allowed later along with those who might consider us later. humanity is a brotherhood and sisterhood for all, the only question is are we building or tearing each other apart?
I really love how Mombasa looks. It's got the waterways of Montreal and the seaside industry of Nagoya, all in a tropical, low-cost package. I would love to visit Mombasa one day. 🏝🐠🐚
@@t.g.2777 I am talking about a EU-like model in the current modern state, it is preatty much to be expected that the EAF will just be an African EU, slow political integration and in the meanwhile economic and social integration.
7:00 Mombasa Island is an island again, the colonial railway causeway is being removed as I write this, road and rail bridges are now complete. Hopefully, the waters wont be as disgusting in the future.
Also: Never mention to a coastal Kenyan that Mombasa is a second tier city. It is not. It has a metro pop of over 3 million. Only about a million less than Nairobi. It is just more industrial and less accessible to outsiders than Nairobi.
@@charliekahn4205 I wouldn't go that far, but Mombasa is a critical logistics hub as it is the only major port for Kenya as well as South Sudan and Uganda. However, Nairobi has a large Government and Tech based industry (it houses the East African headquarters to virtually all multinationals in the region) as well a large manufacturing sector, so its rather more of an interdependence.
@@unilajamuha91 The expressway was very stupid to build and is laughably expensive (about 3 USD one way). Hella convenient tho for those that can afford it. It has been subject to riot-induced shutdowns a couple times now.
One of the coolest places in Kenya is the ASI base near Malindi. Italy used it to lauch rockets to space in the 80's using a floating platform, and nowadays they use the ground base to track various equatorial satellites, especially when they get lauched from the ESA base in French Guyana (like the JWST... You might have seen the images of the deployment coming from Malindi 😉)
As someone who has lived in Kenya: Respectfully hell nah, that federation will not happen anytime soon. Maybe a EU style thing kinda. Youre drinking EAC cool aid there.
with the border not following the river perfectly, there are two things to consider. 1 - google doesn't define the borders *THAT* precisely, especially in sparsely populated areas, and also im pretty sure google simply doesnt do curved borders, as a technical limitation on the website 2 - borders sometimes follow the river but dont change when the river changes. the river can change its shape, but depending on the treaty, the border might stay behind in the shape that the river was when the border was made.
You always gave me a weird feeling of deja vu about minecraft everytime i watched your geography videos which had nothing to do with minecraft. until i realised you do both but ive only now noticed 😂
South Sudan doesn't have a (official) government outside of the capital, surrounding regions and some other territories, the country has been in a perpetual civil war since its birth, that's why the border hasn't been fixed, both countries have more important matters to attend to then some line across the sand where nomads live.
"Fast Tracked" for a merger of states in current year means decades, it's not as easy as "ok today we are one country" there's a lot of steps that must be taken. Take the EU for example. The main 6 members (Benelux, Germany, Italy and France) have been wanting closer ties since forever and an eventual (con)federation but that still is yet to happen.
There are some people that want to do a full merger, but it's super unlikely to happen. One reason, you Can have a common currency and a Schengen type zone and free trade agreements and major infrastructure cooperation while maintaining separate countries. So they're gradually working on bringing all of those things into place, and they don't Need the full merger. Reason number two, when you maintain separate countries it's easier to carve out exceptions for different areas and people groups so they don't all need to be in exactly the same place and situation, plus it's much easier to continue adding new members. It seems like they do want to add quite a lot of new members, they're going for something like the EU, and you just can't get there if you're eliminating countries and borders all the time.
There already was an East African Community with a common currency. It broke up in the 1970's. Would this be the first time such a bloc has broken up and then tried to reform?
0:15 Guyana isn't going to not exist. Venezuela doesn't want the entirety of Guyana. Worst case is Guyana loses a bit over half of its land, mostly dense forest.

No Somali wants to join you lot anyway, it is only hassan mahmoud pushing this agenda. We the Somali people want ZERO association with you jareers. Who voted for HSM? We never did, he was elected via tribal confederation. We want NO PART of this EAC nonsense and having jareers in our country.
As a eurofederalist, I love the EAF as an idea as well but damn, they've been shooting themselves in the foot lately. From 2007 to 2016, it was just Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda and Burundi. Had they federated with those borders, they would've already been one of subsaharan Africa's most stable and powerful states. But what they did instead was mindlessly seek enlargement by asking anyone around them to join, ie essentially scraping the bottom of the toilet bowl as the only ones who were interested were the failed states who were desperately looking for partners who had their shit together. First came South Sudan, looking to turn away from the Arab world after independence, then the DRC, and now Somalia, the textbook failed state. And in what seems to be an act of too much generosity, the EAC just admitted them with minimal formalities, essentially the opposite of the current EU, though maybe not so different from the EU following the fall of communism. Perhaps they were also hoping to expand their influence over the governments of these places, but seeing how unstable South Sudan still is after 7 years, I'm pretty sure we can say they failed their bet. They should've just stuck to the first 5.
3:25 Rivers change over time but river borders tend to be surveyed and drawn out and *that* becomes the actual border, not changing with the river. Though there do seem to be some straight lines there, I wonder how those happened. It would be really interesting to have a river border that actually changes with the river.
You mention population centers being cut by a border several times. Have you actually checked into the development of those cities/towns? Cities do grow up at border crossings, at least in countries I'm more familiar with. The US/Mexico border has 5-6 pairs of cities facing each other across the border. But the border doesn't really "cut" through them - it was there first, and people moved in after. Point being simply that it's hard to criticize establishing a border in a certain place just because there's development on both sides. It's a matter of which came first to a large extent.
Technicalities…. Isn’t Turkey mostly in Asia and looking to be in the *European* Union? Names are just a suggestion like how “people’s republic” hints at actually being a republic run by more than a few people.
Seriously? The border carelessly cuts through the towns, or is it that towns develop along borders as points of trade and economic activity? Confusing cause and effect much?
the EAF only has any real chance if it's between the original proposed members, and only the original proposed members. DRC and South Sudan are failed states that doom any project they are a part of. Cooperation with them is fine, but integration would be disastrous
They're really trying to make the EAF too big. If they'd stuck with just Kenya, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania, and Uganda, they'd probably already have a functional nation put together. Trying to bring in Democratic Republic of the Congo, South Sudan, and Somalia is seriously premature. That should've been left for after the EAF was already established. Because frankly, none of those basketcases are going to be ready for integration into a larger federation for decades.
There are a lot of south asians in kenya. Usually they are the very rich ones not on the streets like the kenyans. They do not even speak Swahili well.
Check out the 10 economic zones. This is a breakdown of all the nations into ten zones. So far most of the world has molded themselves to these areas. This looks like what is happening to Kenya and their neighbors.
1. North America, 2. Europe, 3. North Africa+Middle East, 4. China, 5. Japan, 6. Australia, 7. India, 8. Central+South Africa (one map has SA with Australia), 9. Russia, 10. South America+Central America.
Kenya is a beautiful country. Worth visiting on a Photo Safari. I wish them good luck uniting with their neighbors. Probably not as easy as it sounds. But it would make trade and travel much easier, both for locals and for tourists in my view.
The future of East African Federation will depend on Kenya , if Kenya takes the responsibility to initiate development projects that put the region in the world ma, it will be easier to bring others on board. For example the abolition of Tarrifs and Visas for east Africans was initiated by President Uhuru ......
5:00 The picture doesnt match the article. Lamu is a beautiful archipelago near the Somali border and nowhere near the disputed Ilemi triangle. That source is shit.

I have a few questions.
1: Why put these countries in order of what is objectively the worst alphabet?
2: Why does c dictate the placement of i and e?
3: Where is Old Zealand?
why are you typing in "worst alphabet "?
3. the netherlands
@@ivy_47 Because I only speak one language, and nobody would understand it if I typed in Cyrillic.
Old Zealand is in the Netherlands.
2. It doesn’t. While it happens to be true in a lot of words, the opposite occurs often as well to the point that it’s a pretty useless guide
