This video is about Tanzania country of East Africa.
A land of shockingly scenic nature, vibrant modern cities, melodious language, beautiful weather, a home to the Bantu, Nilotes, Cushites, and strangely, the Khoisan. Welcome to Tanzania.
Tanzania, the largest country in East Africa with an impressive 945,000 square kilometers of land area, is situated right by the majestic Indian Ocean. It boasts many neighbors, such as Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, the DRC Congo, Zambia, Malawi, and Mozambique. Did you know it has two capital cities? You heard right. The beautiful seaside modern city of Dar es Salam is its administrative capital, while Dodoma, located inland, is its legislative capital.
The women of Tanzania are very beautiful. But that’s not all; they are very intelligent and politically active ladies, with women holding nearly 40% of the seats in the Tanzanian parliament, one of the highest rates in Africa.
As per the latest census, Tanzania has a population of nearly 62 million, making it the most populous country located entirely south of the equator. The population distribution in Tanzania is significantly uneven.
With over 120 tribes, Tanzania is the most ethnically diverse country in the world. It is the only African country home to all major ethnolinguistic groups, which include the Bantu, the Nilotes, the Cushites, and the Khoisan. I am particularly fascinated by the Hadzabe, a protected hunter-gatherer indigenous ethnic group who speak a Khoisan language full of clicks. They are one of the few African tribes that still survive exclusively based on the traditional means of foraging. The Sandawe are another Khoisan tribe. Also, you will find the Maasai, a Nilotic tribe that is also found in Kenya. They are apparently the most popular tribe in Tanzania because of their rich and diverse culture. Tanzania is home to the southernmost Cushitic tribes, such as the Iraqis, who currently number about 1000,000. There are also many Afro-Arabs, typically grouped with the Swahili natives, who occupy the coastal region and the island of Zanzibar. Despite so many ethnic groups, tribalism is extremely rare in Tanzania. And among the founding laws of Tanzania since independence is that there should be no ethnic domination. Tanzania has managed to suppress tribal differences through the promotion of Kiswahili as the national language.
Approximately 63% of the Tanzanian population is affiliated with Christianity, while Muslims constitute the second largest religious group, accounting for approximately 34% of the Tanzanian population, followed by a small percentage of other religions.
Tanzania is considered the most politically stable and safe country in Africa. Internal strife is unheard of, and rarely do demonstrations turn ugly. Kenya, are you listening?
Tanzanians make the most beautiful music you will ever hear. The rhythmic and poetic nature of Swahili adds a musical quality to the language itself. This depth of storytelling adds emotional resonance to the music, making it more meaningful to listeners. Artists like Diamond Platnumz, Ali Kiba, and Vanessa Mdee have achieved global success, bringing Tanzanian music to new heights of popularity and acclaim.
Did you know that in Tanzania, it is culturally normal for a woman to marry another woman? Among the Kuria tribe, the practice allows women to marry each other to preserve their livelihoods in the absence of husbands. Among the tribe, couples make up 10 to 15 percent of all households. Its main purpose is to enable widows to keep their property.
Tanzania has one of the highest rates of albinism in the world, with estimates suggesting that 1 in 1,400 Tanzanians is born with albinism, compared to 1 in 20,000 globally. Remember Freddie Mercury? Who doesn’t?! The lead vocalist of the English band ‘Queen’ is a Tanzanian by birth and was born in the archipelago of Zanzibar, in Stone Town. And, by the way, his real name is Farrokh Bulsara! Freddie Mercury was born in Tanzania. The Queen frontman was born to Parsi-Indian parents in Zanzibar and fled to Middlesex, UK, in 1964 during the Zanzibar Revolution.
Let's talk about Tanzanian cuisine, shall we? Important foods in Tanzania are rice, bananas, and ugali. Rice is the staple of much of the coastal area and is often cooked with a variety of spices (including cloves, curry, cinnamon, cumin, and hot peppers). Cooked bananas are a starch staple in much of northern Tanzania (and in the southwest). Other popular fruits include mangoes, guavas, pineapples, jackfruit, breadfruit, and oranges. Chicken, goat, and lamb are often served as nyama choma (roasted meat). Kitumbua and sugarcane are popular snacks.
