Yes. Art's mom will be guest starring in the Fan Friday episode. You will love her. She's a national treasure. ENJOY #SEYCHELLES!
Can't wait to meet her😊
This game was very fun to get there was so quickly the first game was a good thing and the first game that I’ve got the best game I’ve seen you in every way or more than the one ☝🏾 I love 💕 it’s not that it’s like that you are now
The small island countries are always just as interesting as the big powers.

It's like she was possessed by the spirit of an airport employee.

The oldest tortoise in the world, Jonathan, is also born in Seychelles although he resides in Saint Helena. Just some added fact.
That's a hell of a swim!
Was he looking for a (bigger) tax heaven? Or maybe he just retired there?
He is born within 1832
@@amadoubah9296 Perhaps he tried to conquer nearby islands and they had to isolate him?
@@celestialdiscord2716 He predates Queen Victoria's reign (began 1837), the California Gold Rush (started 1849), Canada (united into one country in 1867), and Germany (united into one country in 1871). It's one thing to see a tree older than all those things, but quite another to see an animal.

“Mostly black but everyone has some white or Indian” West Indies is that you?
@@drexordkv7159 he are talking about the Caribbean nations, sometimes it's called West Indies And most of the population are black just like Seychelles
The West Indies has nothing do with India. Columbus when he arrived in the Caribbean though he arrived in India.
Later on, when they realized that the place they had landed was not India, they started referring to it as the 'West Indies' - in the meaning 'Indies to the west of Europe' - to differentiate it from the east Indies, i.e. the Indies that lay to the east of Europe, the actual Indies.

What bugged me is that they said that the islands was unhabited but they call it a former colony!
@@gostavoadolfos2023 That makes no sense. A colony doesn't have to have a native population to be called a colony
@Jang-geum Seo Canada isn't Canada without Quebec
@Jang-geum Seo Well, last time I checked Quebec didn't go independent, so...
In the Seychelles the people aren't obsessed with labels such as race and ethnicity. That's why everyone gets along so well.
You're absolutely right.
So true
Eeeh, kinda yes and kinda not. Every case is different
Hopefully it remains that way,, with the Internet certain ideologies can make their way into ppls consciousness

It is inhabited - often only remotely tho - by our shady oligarchs, so we have something common about Seychelles.

14:54 omg Seychelles already was my favorite country and now that you've compared it to my own country, I started to love Seychelles 🇸🇨 🇧🇷
Fun fact: the current president of Cyprus, Nicos Anastasiades, also went to the Seychelles in vacation recently.
How extraordinary that someone spends a vacation at a vacation spot 🙃
sushi777300 it’s rather extraordinary that someone ditches his country to go on a lavish vacation funded by a wealthy sponsor who HAPPENS to receive a Cypriot passport a few days later. As you can see it’s a bit more complicated than that.

Or as a Seychellois person lemme pull up the factoids...It's basically just everything we saw around us at the time. Blue for the ocean and skies. Yellow for the sun. Red for patriotism and country. White for the sandy beaches everywhere and Green for the greenery. Sorry to burst any bubbles. have a nice day

OneWater4189580 it’s the texture not color
Right? lmao. I mean yes, technically you can gain hair like that without much if any black ancestry, but, it's very, very rare.
Michael Vandi your hair texture isn’t genetic
I swear the Seychelles head of state looks like hide the pain Harold.

That's actually the Indian prime minister. But I get your point lol
That's the Indian PM

@@user-fb7dm9ff8s ty mr. big brain
Hi, several mentions here, Im Seychellois first of all, appreciate that you've done a documentary video about my home. With regards to the best beaches, we know who has the most beautiful beaches, Anse Source D'Argent on La Digue, Best beaches Beau Vallon beach or Anse Royale Beach on Mahe are popular picks. There's also another reserve on La Digue that was not mentioned and that is Veuve Reserve where you can find another unique bird, The Veuve, There's also the question of rivalry ummm... we call people on Praslin, Pralinois or zans Pralen(Creole language) or people from La Digue Island Diguoise or Zans La Digue(Creole language) and other activities like Hiking or island hoping is also available. Aside from those mentions Spot on👍👍. All that is left now is for you guys to experience Seychelles for yourselves, With regards to ethnicity you got that right, we use another word to describe this that I will coin from the Seychelles Tourism Board, "We are a melting pot of culture". Thank you.
I'm part seselwa, pleasure to meet you.
Hello, I'm planning on visiting Seychelles in a couple of months....I just had a couple of doubts. Is it safe regarding crime ?? How's the pirate situation??
@@shahabazz With regards to crime, It is relatively safer than South Africa, i'm not saying that we do not have crime, Personal security is similar to like anywhere else, What I can say you can go to events at night, Dinner at a restaurent, Have a good time at Disco, but it is not advisable to walk late at night all night as you can in places like Dubai. This is the time when crime can occur, but generally in the daytime, its generally safe, The Pirate Situation has gone relatively quiet no new activity so far and we were getting aid from other countries.
@@gpierre90 hey.thanks for the reply. Looking forward to visiting:)
@@shahabazz Your Welcome, Happy to help and we look forward to having you here.

No one:

@Collin Champagne How did you know? Are you native Barbian?
Loved this. As a proud Seychelloise I can attest that this was really impressively accurate 👌🏼👏🏼 though I think our rhum deserved a mention 😅
Just curious, but do you speak Seychellois Creloe well?
@@zjzr08 yes I do 😊
@@marialefevre3285 are seychelloise trilingual?
@@marialefevre3285 yes we do... we have three official languages and we can speak all of them fluently... Sometimes we speak all three in the same sentence...
Imagine if your country is not a island and has very large land,then Seychelles will get more recognition😅
The angry Nigerians and South Africans saying that Seychelles isn't the most developed country in Africa 😂😂😂
@@styxdragoncharon4003 at least in quality of life and education it's the best
The Nigerians are mad because some find it difficult to get into the country. Seychelles accepts only Honest Nigerians whose intentions are noble and pure and will NOT exploit this country for their own selfish motives or needs. More information check Seychelles Immigration website.
Aren't Mauritius, Botswana, and Namibia almost just as rich?
@@gabrielpalacio6710 Angola as well.
@@gabrielpalacio6710 Mauritius is very close, but Botswana and Namibia don't have a good life expectancy, both countries are among the top countries in the world by HIV infections though
china, the most populated country in the world: 20 minutes
seychelles, cool island country: 25 minutes
Plus Geography Now has a bigger crew, better editing software and a higher budget which allows their videos to be longer and better quality.
Plus if they got too deep into China's history or culture the video would be like three hours long.
People already know quite a lot about big and important countries like that. Whereas these small interesting countries come with a lot of never-heard-before fun facts
Kinda hope once all the regular episodes are done, the Geography Now team will revisit some of the older episodes and be able to do them justice.
I think they had said at one point that they would like to one revisit some of those video’s to give greater detail then before, though only after all the countries are done, so that might be a while.

A tropical island archipelago called Seyshelles, populated by African, English, French and Indian people, who speak French-English creole and somehow have an obesity problem in Africa. Not to mention they have giant tortoises, which up until this point I thought only exited on Galapagos. So yeah I thought this was a prank

Not an airlines. Just a single aeroplane, given probably by Australia.
"well glad we don't do a long complex episode with lots of backstory anymore"
*Proceeds to a 26-minute episode*
Their flag literally looks like the Romanian and Hungarian ones smashed together.
Which is ironic seeing that these two pretty much hate each other.
Fun fact:

*I dont like that*
Chad not Romania
@@PinkGoldPeach23105 boo
If Hungary or Romania ever happened to invade Seychelles they'd rip the flag into two parts and send the respective part to their rival as a message.

Sending love from Mauritius 🇲🇺💙🇸🇨
The flag of Seychelles looks like the romanian and hungarian flags combined...🇷🇴 + 🇭🇺 =🇸🇨 or like Chad and Tadjikistan combined....
Chad and Tajikistan are different but unlike Romania and Hungary (both Eastern European Culture best pairings with Poland other than Germany and Russia) but Chad and Tajikistan’s culture both are Muslim country through Middle Eastern and Arab Countries all 4 Chad is similar to Seychelles because both are located in Africa
I went to Seychelles for a couple days while in the military. Absolutely the most beautiful place I've ever been!
The Languages of Seychelles 🇸🇨 is English, French and Seselwa.
Ses
i thought it would be *romanian* and *hungarian*
good. thing, they spoke English cuz I can't understand French or seselwa.
It's creole not seychellois, seychellois is our nationality. Quite a few other countries speak different dialects of Creole like Mauritius and Haiti
Our language is call creole💀💀 whn you saying seselwa it sounds like I'm saying ppls from America speaks American💀💀
Lots of love❤ to Seychelles🇸🇨 from India🇮🇳
The Seychellois people in this episode did a great job. I absolutely love their accent.
Agreed ❤
Can't wait for the South Sudan episode.
Its going to be dark but ok
Fawzan Fawzi It’s literally the youngest fully sovereign nation in the world. Not much history of its own but pretty dark as it was part of Sudan (especially just before their independence).
A failed state and a human dump.
Fun fact: The Druze actually use the flag of the Seychelles in text to describe their people because it looks like their star symbol 🇸🇨.

As a Finn, the name ”Kantole” (especially in the context of music) really reminds me of Kantele, our national instrument, similar to the Russian Gusli that you mentioned in the Russia-episode.

Hi Barbs! Love your channel and have been following it for years now. A minor suggestion I have for when you guys do those cute cutaways to countries talking/arguing with each other, could you also include the name of the country below the flag? I think many of us would appreciate having that extra bit of trivia without needing to take the extra step of taking a photo and image-searching it :)
