Barbs, please pin this.
Omg best joke of the year lol
Ooh wa-ooh ooh wa-ooh

*claps*
I have waited 3 years for my home country to be featured. 3 YEARS!!!! FINALLY!!!
aet! same here.
Wow, You are from Marshall islands?
Congrats, guys. Also, your flag is cool.
Congrats for Marshall Islands!! I also wait for this episode. Cool flag and I respect President Heine as well 😁 Love from Indonesia hehehehe
Hi there!! What Marshallese artists/musicians should be known by foreigners like me?
I am a Marshall island person🇲🇭🇲🇭
Love ur country
Is it cool
Its very cool there, but i had to move to hawaii, hawaii is cool too.
I suggest to your country to have its own military or even police forces
I hope someday.
I will visit to your country.
I’m really interested in your country since i was 12.
-from Philippines/Japan ❤️
I am surprised that Kathy Kijiner was not mentioned (she is a Marshallese poet and climate change activist that spoke at the UN Climate Summit back in 2014).
But other than that, I just want to say thank you for acknowledging my little island country.
Komol tata (thank you very much)
Dang its pretty cool to see a Marshallese person
❤
that's my boyfriend's cousin 😂

- "So what kind of islands are the Marshall Islands made up of?"
- "Have you been paying attention ATOLL?!"
Aljaž Glaser **punch to the face**
LOL
Did anybody noticed the wierd subtitles? Like 2:56
Aljaž Glaser, I SWEAR!
Lol
I actually find episodes about less known countries more interesting than episodes about big countries
Am I the only one?
No Mr. Marchetti, you are not the only one.
I definitely agree!
i’m waiting for my countries tonga and niue!! but they upload a oceania episode once a year😭
Me too my friend, me too
Yes, but not the island ones
I love how Barb is developing everyone around him and not hogging the limelight. It appears very amateurish but very very endearing. I think that is this channel's edge.

@@guitarguy7847 why it's "THE" Netherlands? 🤔
DAZZ because Netherlands doesn’t work in English. Is English not your first language?
DAZZ btw that wasn’t meant to be racist it was a whole hearted question
@@guitarguy7847 nope it's not my first and I thought it's similar to "The Gambia" and "Zambia" thing 🤔 they added "The" to differentiate themselves from Zambia (similarly pronounced)
Crazy thing about that atomic bomb my grandma still remembers white dust like snow falling from the sky and people playing with it. The worst part is radiation poisioning is causing long term health issues in my country. Birth defects, thyroid cancer, etc... Until today there are certain fish in the outer islands of Marshall your not allowed to eat due to this. People lost their homes, their identies and were moved to other islands that were smaller and more crowded.
Feel very sorry for Marshall Islands people. :/
I wish he would have talked about Ebeye. That place is full of the descendents of displaced ri-Majel who can't go home. Ebeye has no trees, hardly any fresh water, and it is SO crowded. Meanwhile the Americans have golf courses and luxury housing just a short boat ride away.
tstodgell demand their islands then.
blah01168, my grandpa was from there. My mom would always say if those tests didn’t happen we’d be out there. Nice white sand, fishing.

I’m from Springdale, Arkansas! I have a documentary on my page about Mayday, which is the Marshallese Independence Day filmed here in Springdale
Hey, do you hear the Marshallese language being spoken in Springdale? Have the community opened any restaurants there?
John Kad there aren’t any restaurants that I know of, but they do have a pretty close knit community and most that I know speak their language. They have a few churches around town and they all seem to know each other (or know of each other) I’m not sure why Springdale Arkansas has such a large population but I remember a history teacher I had asking one of the students why their family chose to live in Springdale, the student shrugged and just said “most of our family lives here”
Black Dragon yeah bc we have a big family
John Kad there’s so many in Springdale (where I live) because a preacher went to the islands, and after converting many people, brought them back here. Now even more people continue to immigrate here because their families are here. They have a huge community, and are a big part of Springdale culture :) I consider myself honored to be so well acquainted with a country a lot of the US knows nothing about

Awesome job guys! Thanks for including us in your video. Just hit the subscribe button
Did i.. did I win?
Omg! Thank you so much for teaching people about my home! Every time “someone tells me where you from?” “Hawaii?” I would say “no am from Marshall island. They would not know where and what is Marshall island and it kind upsets me that no one from where I live don’t know where is Marshall island. I feel like our school should teach everyone about Marshall island.
The Marshall Islands are so cool! I feel so horrible about the testing and the lack of justice you have been able to get in several areas. Really wish you got more attention...
Is it okay if I ask what your personal opinion on the relations of the Marshall Islands and the United States is?
1 year old comment but yeah I had people ask me what a Marshallese is.
Don't be upset if they do not know where the Marshall Islands' location on the globe. You see, After more than ten years of their testing, their own government decided to eliminate these two school learning subjects of geography and history from their own educational curriculum to hide their lies and destruction set upon the innocent people, their land, and the ocean. The history of the nuclear bomb has two sides to the same story and if they know the one side by the bomb dropped on Hiroshima and Nakasaki, while they don't have any clue about the Marshall Islands, that is obvious.
This is my home
I have stayed in Ebeye for a week, on Kwajalein for a day, and Majuro for a few hours. The Marshallies are lovely people.
Can we get the full marshall island Song?
Please no
no because copyright
marshall islands kinda looks like armenia
Should be sung by Keith
Marshall islands Bikini atoll is spongebob
My hometown in western Nebraska had a large number of Marshallese families. I always thought it was odd that they choose to live here. But it was cool to see another ethnic group in town
Everyone would like to live somewhere in United States.
@@vic3451 I wouldn't
Unless you live at another highly developed country like Finland or Switzerland, of course. Otherwise, everyone wants to go to United States.
@@vic3451 exactly
@@vic3451 I would disagree. At one point i wanted to live in the US. But after travelling there a few times I just wouldn't want to live there anymore. I would rather live in europe, canada, australia or new zealand. Since I don't get reminded every single time how inferior i am compared to them and how their country is just the best because america, like a lot of americans do. I know it's not all of you but damn that bappened a lot. And no, i don't live in a developed nation.
The craziest fact here was that Springsdale, Arkansas is home to 5000 from Marshall Islands! Interesting, I wish there was more backstory on that.
tyson chicken. Some marshallese dude went to college in america, decided he hated it, found a job in the chicken plant. He told his family, they told their friends, etc, etc, until all marshallese knew the money was good. I know this cuz Ilived there for a long while
Springdale, AR has the largest population of Marshallese outside of the country itself because of Tyson. The poultry plants recruit very heavily from the Marshall Islands. When I lived outside Springdale and worked in the county court system, I learned there were only four certified Marshallese court interpreters in the US. One in Los Angeles...three in Springdale.
Their art is called Marshall Arts.
I thought of that too!
Do they do karate in the Marshall Islands?
yes
maybe
hi i'm from the marshall island , also (live in marshall islands rn) and no we do not do karate
Can we get a keith bass solo?
Yeeessss!!!
I live in southern Indiana, and the high school I teach at actually has a pretty big Marshallese population, which is crazy considering that there are fewer than 100,000 Marshallese people on the planet, so it’s really exciting to have the opportunity to work with them!
Lmao I remember my teacher always hesitating to say "bikini" in geography class back in high school 😂
Ken is wearing a "Still not fired" shirt. 😂😂😂😂
Countries in late episode are kinda lucky.
They get better graphics, better video quality, and the newest presentation style to offer.
Anyways, thumbs up, barbs!
True, I wish my country didn't start with a B
It's great to learn more about our friends as we hardly learn it from classes in Taiwan!
We're very much related to the aboriginal Taiwanese there.Our forebears came from that place thousands of years ago during the great Austronesian migration.
My favorite part is when Barby plays the Marshall Islands opening theme in style of the SpongeBob intro song.
0:08 RUclips Proudly Present : Best Song of All Time
Probably some people have noticed it before me, but Barbs always wears shirt which colour is on episode's country flag :o
Amazing video as always guys, and congratulations Keith for your first hosting segment! It would be really interesting to see a series of traditional music for some countries hosted by Keith!
Hello everyone, very much enjoyed this video. i was TDY, from Hawaii in 1978. i was in the army and was a part of the radiation clean up. This was on Enewetak Atoll. Please don't be mad at me. I had nothing to do with the atomic bombs, most were before i was even born. i just wanna say that i love the islands. I snorkeled almost every day and the water was amazing. when the tide went out it had to be the most wonderful tide pooling in the world. anyway thanks the video and i loved the Enewetak Atoll. I would love to go back and visit sometime.
You forgot to mention that Marasall Islands is the only country in the world that does not have a football(soccer) national team
WERDER BREMEN FAN ß I’m sure The Vatican City doesn’t have one

Aye brody I seen your Micronesia episode too. I appreciate you shedding some light on our issues brody! Can’t wait for that Palau episode 🤙🏽
I’m Marshallese...born and raised in the Marshall Islands but Right now I’m here in Arizona, USA just came here for Better education. Much love to y’all!!
Do you actually come from the Marshall Islands or did your family just move to the Marshall Islands and then you were born there?
@@EyeInsideEyeSocket i'm pure marshallese...family been here for generation. Now i'm back home here in the Marshall islands.
@@tatamijrlometo5674 wow your rare
Love when your videos are posted during the evening here in Japan!! Thanks!! 😊😊
Hey this new promotion means ken CAN help out in the Philippines episode
YAAAS
Great video Barbs, I can't wait for your video on the Netherlands as I hope to travel there as my first excursion outside the US next year!
Haha love this video! Teaching other people about Marshall island! Love to see it❤️
The Marshallese people are some of the kindest most forgiving human beings on the planet.
I had never even heard of the Marshall Islands before this video, always nice to learn something new.
It is really great that you slowed down during local traditions and history part. Makes it more enjoyable.
My dad is from Fayetteville AR and I remember him telling me about the large Marshallese population in northwest Arkansas
i love all the episodes
This channel is unique so I subscribed
I’m impressed. Y’all did a pretty good job on the history part and everything else
this is legit. i watch all thru the end. accurate info and history. Great research. were you guys spent times in the marshalls because all info is so accurate.

Great vid, as usual! Just a little correction regarding atolls, because they're awesome and you should totally talk about this in a later video (there's got to be some atoll nations left). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atoll#Formation
Most atolls aren't un-breached volcano rims, but coral structures that formed around the perimeter of a volcano which did breach the surface and form a rocky island. The volcano is riding on oceanic crust, which moves like a conveyor belt away from mid-ocean rifts, and as that crust ages it cools, contracts, and sinks deeper below the ocean surface, taking the volcano down with it. While the volcano is growing, it easily outgrows this sinking, but when it becomes extinct it returns below the water. The coral reef continues to grow during this process, however, and eventually a ring of coral and some sand is all that remains at the surface! For more on this topic, I recommend the documentary South Pacific, episode 4: Ocean of Volcanoes; it's on Netflix now!
What a masterpiece video!!!
0:09 better than the original
I love ken presenting. He has pleasant intonation instead of being monotonous
Simply put, one of the most enjoyable shows on the RUclipss
1979, my mom was born the day we got independence. Awesome! Great video, I also find it interesting that not many people know the origin of those nuclear tests even though they’re used a whole lot in memes and whatnot. Either way, my grandparents were from bikini. My mom tells us if those test didn’t happen we’d go there on vacation. My love for the sea would’ve been over the roof. Beautiful white sand, would’ve been nice.
Lovely!
That wasn't explorer John Marshall, but U.S. Supreme Court Justice John Marshall.
Zandandido was looking for this comment

Yup noticed that too.
Marshall M. Marshall, Field Marshal of the Marshall Islands.
Longest serving SCOTUS judge, Marbury v Madison, AND the Marshall Islands? What a guy!!
Always well produced content.
I approve.
Thank you for making thoses video. They are interresting, informative and on top of that, Barby is really cute ;)
Great video, guys! I loved living in the Marshall Islands for 5 years - beautiful place and wonderful people.
are you serious you lived in marshall islands
@@fearless_dark9692 You bet
@@AdventuresinAviators man, this is great, I would like to see these islands, but they are too far away
@@fearless_dark9692 They are not close to anything and expensive to reach. We have some videos on our channel from our time there if you are curious.
I love your videos it gives me some facts that I didn't know about the country... Thanks Barby for creating this channel..
XOXO,
BRENT DY.(geography fan since 6)
An impressive and a wonderful way of presentation. Job well done 🎉
Springdale, Arkansas....would not have been my first guess as to the largest Marshall Island expat community...
caesarmatty it’s because a preacher from our area went over and converted many people! It sort of snowballed from there and now we have a huge Marshallese community
@@emilysargent8247 I see! Thanks for the reply.
Wtf?! My sister is watching spongebob and the geography now version sync very well
Best.Intro.To.A.Georgraphy.Now.Episode.Ever!
Keith and Noah are definitely my favorite bois so I'm happy he got his own segment.
Woohoo! 1.1 million subs and counting! You rock Geography Now
I need that intro song as my ring tone
Me too
Fun fact a majority of Marshall Islanders are living in Arkansas. They are relocated to the Arkansas because of the radiation from the US testing. So Arkansas has a huge Vietnamese population from refugees from the Vietnam War and Marshall Islanders because of radiation.
Ellis was in the New Zealand episode to the departures and did a scuba diving show with them after
Great job on all infos
Mixed Marshallese, is that what MMA fighters speak?
Did anyone notice the fact that whenever the map of the USA is brought up in the Friend Zone, Alaska is left behind? Poor Alaska
Psh, you believe in Alaska? Alaska's nothing more than a made-up conspiracy. Wake up sheeple! 😋😁

I love your channel, I have been with you since you made the Bahrain episode. You’re awesome , I miss the old times when it was just you, I learned a lot better and easier I miss those days. No offense to the others but I just miss the old times.
I’m from the Marshall Islands and aside from a few butchered pronunciations I gotta say u hit the nail right on the spot well done with your research.. gonna follow your videos from now on kommol tata(thank you very much)
The beginning of every episode makes me laugh especially this one
4:21 USSR:hihi that's cute
Would love to visit this country one day! I've tried one of their recipes called Marshallese chukuchuk. It turned out pretty good
Great episode guys.
Very interesting episode especially the cool rai stones discussed and other information as well keep it up Marshallese citizens because you are really lucky to travel any place you want to😅🇲🇭🇲🇭🇲🇭
AYO SPRINGDALE GOT SOME MENTION!!! Northwest Arkansas represent
I work in The Marshalls mostly in Bikini Atoll, it is not actually closed to tourism. We operate a dive liveaboard that runs trips from May to October from Kwajalein to Bikini Atoll to dive the nuclear fleet.
We love you Keith, keep playing Bass!
Dare I say, this is possibly the best intro you guys have ever done lmao

Can not wait to see the episode on Norway and The Netherlands and Sweden!!
Nice job Keith. Liking the geogracrew!

Appreciate you introducing our islands, you are amazing man.
I love this episode
Lots of best wishes to the Marshall Islands from Germany :)
The German ship Prinz Eugen is sunk inside Kwajelein lagoon. The Americans nuked it and it was too hot to recycle, so they towed it ovet to Kwaj where it sank.
@@tstodgell Hi we adopt the German language like word like MARK, the numeric #7 with the cross etc, name like Frederic, Heinrich, Luther lots of them etc. the island/atoll of Likieb have a community mixed descendant of German Marshallese that is driving.

The trailer was awesome for masrshal islands...
The opening did not disappoint... I paused at 40 seconds just to take it all in before continuing with the rest of the video. Sublime.
LOL the beginning is the best. Nice work!
