    Interesting video and i definitely learned a few things. However I have two points to make...
    Mauritania shared the color exclusivity until 2017 when they added two red stripes to their flag. At that time we really became unique.
    Also, as far as I know Tanganyikais pronounced tang·guh-nyee-kuh. But this is the usual English pronunciation and am willing to be educated if they say it different in Africa.

    The Jamaican flag is missing something - a small guitar or drum to represent Jamaica's contribution to world music by creating Reggae. Reggae music is something very iconic of Jamaica, and for that reason I think some kind of representation on the flag seems called for. A little guitar or drum (or even a musical note glyph) can be placed in the left triangle similar to the placement of the nutmeg on the Grenadian flag.

    • @NativeNomad10
      @NativeNomad10 29 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Why would Jamaica want to have a flag like Grenada? Let Grenada be the only flag with its nutmeg. Reggae is not even the only contribution jamaica has made to the world, and if it was to add all its accomplishments, there wouldn't be any space on the flag.

    • @caribbeanman3379
      @caribbeanman3379 29 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@NativeNomad10 Well that's a dumb response!
      1. Jamaica _already_ has a similar flag design to Grenada even without the nutmeg - though it would be more accurate to say that Grenada has a similar flag design to Jamaica because Jamaica's is older than Grenada's.
      2. It's rather stupid to suggest that putting a musical instrument would mean that's Jamaica's only contribution. Do you think the colors and symbols on any flag capture the totality of any countries contributions and characteristics? So why are you making it an issue here? The fact is, Reggae is Jamaica's most iconic and widely recognized contribution, even if it's not their _only_ contribution.
