I am a Nigerian but what I've learnt about Sengsl is quite interesting and pleasant , especially when they become the 2nd African country to reach the world cup quarter final. I falling love with the country .GOD bless Senegal .
I’m watching from the U.S. State of Wyoming I’m a black person born in America and I knew little about my ancestral homeland growing up as a child. I appreciate your channel and I’m happy to learn about the different countries of the continent. I’m posting what I learn on my Facebook page so that my family and friends can learn too. Thank you again.
I am based in the UK and I visited Senegal for 2 weeks. I fell in love with Senegal and plan to return in April 2022 having learned some Wolof, Jola (Cassa) and French languages. ❤ My favourite about your video is the People & Culture section. I liked the entire video.
Glad you enjoyed the video. You must be a very fast learner to grasp almost 3 languages in just a period of 2 weeks. Definitely Senegal has a very diverse culture. One of the most beautiful countries on the continent. Did you visit the city of Douala?
@@TheAfricanScript Ha ha. I learned very basic words and sentences while I was in Senegal and I continue to learn in the UK. Yes. Senegal and its people touched my spirit in a positive sense. I will visit as much places as possible on my return to Senegal 🙏🏽 God willing. I stayed in Dakar for the 2 weeks and visited Ngor Island only.
Good day I am from Trinidad and Tobago a twin island nation in the Caribbean situated next to Venezuela. I was pleasantly surprised to see how developed Senegal 🇸🇳 is and have grown over the years. It is a very beautiful nation.
SIR I KNEW A VERY GOOD FRIEND NAMED BASSAMBA HE WAS FROM YOUR OWN ISLAND TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO AS WELL.HE PRETTY MUCH LIKE LUCIANO REGGAE SINGER.TOO BAD HE PASSED AWAY FEW YEARS AGO.. ACTUALLY, HE GAVE ME BACK IN 1996 A BASKETBALL AS GIFT.I MISS HIM A LOT MAY HE REST IN PEACE.
I loved what i learned about Senegal! My curiosity is fueled by many concerts I saw as a child here in the USA where the Senegalese Dance troop came through. The many beautiful unique musical instruments, beautiful voices, and graceful dancing

@@TheAfricanScript Yes. I visited Nairobi and Arusha once regarding a tender for tyre valves from a tyre company. Egypt, 3 times and again to sell tyre valves. I have however met people from Sudan in Oman and Dubai. Very fine people and spoke excellent English.
My upstair neighbors are from Senegal they cooked a chicken and beef dish with jollof rice it was soooooo delicious 😋 peace love to my african people ❤
I did a Ancestry and found out I'm 6% Senegal. I hope I can go and see it. I had Friends always tell me Tina you a Sister. I never knew what they meant. Then I did the DNA and I inboxed them. They all laughed and said We knew it. I remember as a Kid crying cz my Hair wasn't like my 2 best friends. I would try to do the twist a bow at the end. Never worked. My Mom finally said We are all alike but not not our Hair. But now that I know I really would love to just see it. I think it's pretty Cool.
Thank you for the content, this is serious i'm a single guy planning to move to Dakar from Lebanon to start a new life hopefully a better one even though i have no idea what's waiting for me, i am open minded and open for other's cultures so i won't have problems collaborating and communicating especially that i understand french very well. Please any advice from anyone who reads my message!? Thank you in advance, much respect.
Dakar's skyline is impressive. What I liked is the economic diversification. Which some African nations have long resisted. People tend to overlook the fact that part of Senegal was incorporated into the Moroccan empire.
@@diawaraoussey9091 Eastern Senegal was incorporated into the Ghana Empire. The Ghana Empire fell to the Almovarids who were based in what is called Morocco today.
@@oceejekwam6829 Ghana empire was located part of Mauritanie and part of Mali and it's a maybe a small part of Senegal. The almoravide invided one part of Ghana empire once the empire was weak and finishing. In the soninke oral griot history, they talk about the drought and the desert taking over the north part of the empire, populations started migrating to the south like today you will find soninke populations in south Mauritanie, mali,North and east of Senegal. Once again, the almoravide never ruled over the Senegal. I know the history of the region for speaking different languages and listening the griots singing the histories.
Love your videos. Very well done and informative. Visited nearby Liberia and Nigeria, with a stopover in Ghana for several hours at the home of Baha'is.
Hello, viewer from Texas here. I did a genealogy test, and the results were rooted in Senegal. Now if only I knew the tribe. I feel robbed of my heritage. Thank you for this vid.
Decided to watch because I took an ancestry test that showed I was 2% "Senegambian". Also another random 2% of other African countires. I'm Mexican and learned that most Mexicans and other central American people have at least 1% African decent.
Wow your country is beautiful! I’m interested in coming to visit you. I had a Uber driver from there tell me it’s a wonderful place to live and maybe start a family. Please share some info with me.
They don't call our soccer team "THE LIONS OF TERANGA " for no reason. It literally translates into THE LIONS OF HOSPITALITY. Not an intimidating name for a sports team but we'd rather be known for our kindness than our ferocity. Visit if you ever get the chance. You'll make 17 million friends. ❤
Why is it that the Irish, the Scottish, the Flemish etc are not refered to as tribes? I mean they are no different than the different groups in Africa that are so described
@@sankofaha7557 I am not contending that "Tribes" is not an appropriate terminology to identify human demographic groupings. My point is the selectivity in which it is used, and thus the negative connotation applied to it.
@@keithwilliams5398 I agree with you. Even the most annoying thing is using skin colour to identify humans. If people are of European origin they are European or Caucasian and therefore people of African origin must be called Africans period.
Spend time there and you'll understand. Tribe trumps even nationality in most of Africa. It makes sense because border lines in Africa are a western construct.
@@jamessquare Sigh! How many times have I stated this? I do not consider "Tribe" as a human demographic group description to be degrading. I am pointing out the W/S double standards. My ancestors were from Ghana. I am proud of that. Why is it that intellectual points made to illustrate W/S become ladders for inverse proportional ethnic ego flaunting

Good, atleast we feel confident

Tourism is the way to go, Senegal. You've got that swimmable coast you can put beaches and resorts on.
The original jolof rice. It is the best!
3:55 1958 independence for Senegal. Cool
Thank you.
Am 6 percent Senegal also
As a European Christian I would have liked to see why you call it the most hospitable country in West Africa. Maybe you did and I missed it.
Senegal is a flat country that lies in the depression known as the Senegal-Mauritanian Basin.
I found out am 3 percent senegal so now am here.
