Sorry, but get the facts right. Mt Kirinyaga does not, did not and will never mean Mountain of whiteness. It meant Mountain of god or gods resting place - Mwene Nyaga means god. I think Kilimanjaro had the white thing. I know because I am one of those indigenous people from the region where the mountain is
Kenya is famous for marathon runners too!
This video doesn't have much views because you took so long to actually start talking about Kenya. I almost clicked off myself

Kenya 🇰🇪 is the first country in the world to have mobile transfers. Money from mobile to mobile _ not surprised that you did not say that Lmao

I wonder why though
Are you related to a Nancy Maina? She used to live in Nairobi and Mombasa.
@@flexiblestrategist9922 no, I don't think so. Maina is a very popular Kenyan name. We may not be directly related but the ancestry is definitely from one tribe. Just that

Fact #11 Kenya is home to Lake Turkana the world’s permanent desert lake and largest alkaline lake.
Correction in Fact 10 Kenya comes from the Kamba language Kinyaa after the snow capped mountain.
But mount Kenya is actually called Mount Kirinyaga by Kenyans and was changed to mount Kenya because the British settlers couldn't pronounce Kirinyaga.
i lived in kenya my whole life and i never knew this

I thought they were 47 lol
@kim knightly Kenyans who care about their country and it's history 🇰🇪
@kim knightly hardly. Civilisations in Morocco aren't the same culture as those in South Africa, aren't the same as those in Egypt, aren't the same as those in Congo, ect. The differences in culture predates colonialism. We should unit as a continent, unite at the borders, unite before outsiders but to claim that there aren't differences between us is just intentionally disingenuous. Kenyan history and culture is very different to Nigeria, so why shouldn't we learn our history... It's like saying that there isn't a different between the Spanish and the Russians, Turkey and Germans, India and China. I'm not a tribalist for the simple fact that I don't care where you come from and I don't believe that anyone is any better or worse for where they are from. I only care about my own ancestral history and that shouldn't stop you from uniting with me or learning about your own. We don't have the proper leadership but we haven't had enough time to find what works best for Africa, its only been 60years since the first independence when places like UK have had 600years to reach what they have now. I personally don't think that a one democracy or dictatorship can work for Africa - just look at America, China and Russia for examples of how that leadership works for the people, it's not good and we're bigger! Better regional leadership, eliminating corruption and taking back control of our resources is what we need first - don't you agree?
Ngl. Before this, I hardly knew anything about Gaddafi or Saddam, so thank you for including that, I have a lot of reading to catch up on cos these two people are actually really interesting
the different communities have different sub groups..
In my opinion ...Mt Kenya was reffered to as Kirinyaga because the communities around the mountain region believed that was God's roaming place and also i guess coz of the whiteness coz why wouldn't they just call it mwenenyaga which basically means one with spots bt called it KIRInyaga...I specifically think there is a deeper reason as to why they called it Kirinyaga and not mwenenyaga and maybe it had to do with the fact they believed it was God's roaming place and they wanted a word to complement both characteristics of the mountain
( If you know more you can correct me🙂)
Joy Esther I hope you know Nyaga means ostrich, Mweneyaga is God or the owner of the ostriches( and all beings), Kerinyaga is because of the likeness to the ostrich white(snowcap) and black. So its right or al least part true
@@kinyanjuigichuki1046 yeah i know Nyaga means Ostrich it's also used as a male name in the Kikuyu community like other animals...and yeah i guess you're right..i think kirinyaga maybe was a combination of it being reffered to God's roaming place and the whiteness coz if it was just the whiteness why didn't they refer to it as mwenenyaga which basically means one with spots
Kirinyaga literally (translates) kiri- has,while nyaga-ostrich.. snow created at the top resembled parts of the ostrich while its magnificence brought the thought of (mwenenyaga) which could probably mean the Creator (GodHimself)or the owner of the Ostrich(direct translation) used to reside there as well..All in all we can only keep guessing the actual meaning since just like a huge chunk of african history,sadly-was never documented rather passed on to generations through mouth(stories) and that fact withstanding, significant-substantial facts have been lost while others have been modified by the story "Tellers" to fit 'thier' narrative or for some happy ending..
@@kinyanjuigichuki1046 It's not partly true but all of it! Nyaga also means a crown of light or spots of whiteness too. That's why there is Nyagathanga, a bird that has a white crown at the top of its head.
@@Kagogo2025 isn't the direction translation of has Kina bt not Kiri?
And yeah that's what i was saying that i also ASSUME since that information isn't documented in depth
I really miss my country kenya... all the way from rongai
Thanks you guys for loving our diverse country Kenya😍😍😘
You guys from all over the world are welcomed😌😌
Yea its called victoria but its not like we really like the name. We'd rather you call it by its indigenous name Lake Sango
No..its called Nam lolwe
or nyasa
or rukanga
or any African name
@Jane Kitenye there are many different tribes surrounding the lake thats why,common sense
Ma second country Kenya 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪

I really adore people for thirst of knowledge.
Actually Kirinyaga means the Seat of the God- So the people believed that, the mountain was the the Seat of God

May Allah bless you esp for what u are doing for us
From Kenya(Kisumu shore of L.Victoria): You got your facts right, mostly. Yet there`s always a part of Kenya(and by extension Africa) that is hard for foreigners to grasp or even understand; the tiny little smiles on the faces of the other %s. You probably need to come to connect in order to get it, as opposed to coming as another tourist
nice
Kenya & Tanzania are awesome
iam watching from Kenya,Kericho one of the coldest places in Kenya

He didn't sign he only agree as always what the society wants and not everyone Muslims only who did it.
Just a point of correction, Barrack Obama only visit as a sitting president of the United States was in 2015, and as for the reason for visit... It was a Global entrepreneurship summit, focusing on IT and innovation for the youth in Kenya and around Africa. 2018 was the 3rd visit, and he wasn't in office by then..
