- Life in Liberia - City of Monrovia, history, people, lifestyle, traditions and music. Liberia was established in 1822 as a haven for freed slaves from the Americas. Originally named Christopolis, the settlement was later renamed Monrovia in honor of American President James Monroe. Over time, Liberia developed from a colony into a commonwealth and gained independence in 1847. The colony was formally known as Liberia, meaning "the free land" in Latin. Liberia is the only Black state in Africa that was never subjected to colonial rule and is Africa's oldest republic. Liberia is located along the coast of West Africa. It is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the southwest, Sierra Leone to the west, Guinea to the north, and Cote d'Ivoire to the east. Liberia is made up of fifteen political sub-divisions called counties. It has a population of around 5 million and covers an area of 43,000 square miles or 111,369 kilometers square. Monrovia the capital city of Liberia, is located on Cape Mesurado on the Atlantic coast and as of the 2023 census had 1,678,000 residents, home to 32% of Liberia’s total population.

You describe yourself as African-American. Do you use the same pattern for people from other places like Asian-American, or European-American, or Australian-American? Technically there are no Americans but the Indians.

Ex Slaves from America contributed to the lingo and culture of Liberia. One of the most influential population of Liberia.

Thanks for watching 💖😻
“Home Sweet Home” ❤❤❤❤
I wonder if any of my ancestors migrated to Liberia.
Great content.
Thanks for watching 💝😘👌
@@rakghana You are welcome.
I would like to tour Liberia and the tour project would be dubbed Africa my biginning because it was never colonised.Lastly George was my favourite player .Still good on and off the field ❤
Ethiopia was also never colonized. Liberia is very poor, usually on the bottom 10 list of economical developed countries in Africa.
Liberia is the OLDEST REPUBLIC, ETHIOPIA is the oldest NON COLONIZED nation.
Is Liberia save to travel like renting a car and drive around?
Yes.
Liberia all the way our mother's land ❤
“Liberia was the only Black state in Africa that was never subjected to colonial rule.”
No, that would be Ethiopia. My ancestors unfortunately did colonize Liberia, and exploited the indigenous population. We ruled with an iron fist for over 100 years before being rightly deposed in the Liberian civil war.
Liberia was literally founded by an organization called the American Colonization Society. It was colonized, but now it is free. I hope it can live up to its name going forward - a place of liberty and opportunity for ALL people. 🇱🇷 💕✊🏽
One day I will visit Liberia
I really need a liberia friend
Planning to visit soon
@@benjahjebye9782 hi can I be your friend from Liberia
Liberia 🇱🇷 must rise
my moms kpelle and i dont wanna hate but they say it like pele instead of kpelle
Kpelle (“Peh - Leh”)
You are wrong
@@rustynail_7535 yeah thats what i mean
correction liberia was not the only part of Africa not colonized, also ethiopia
Home sweet home 🏡
Ethiopia was not colonised by the imperialist, I stand to be corrected.
Yes, you are right, Ethiopia was never colonised but Ethiopia was a Kingdom which later became a Republic whiles Liberia started as a Republic. So technically speaking Liberia is the first Republic in Africa
Italy pre ww2
Ethiopia was a kingdom and become a Republic later which makes Liberia the first Republic in Africa
Liberia was Not founded by Afro-Americans.
It was started by a white methodist church group that bought Afro-American men & a few women with them. The white people were looking for opportunities through their use of the Afro-American men as their proxy. They encourage the men to quickly take local women for their wives. Just look at the currency it had white men's faces. The first president was a white man.
@@MrRoyck10 But still poor and always at WAR
We Liberians are very different, but most of our traits are from the US.
I am from the Kru tribe, but right now I am in Sierra Leone.
I think it should also be explained that the United States when ending slavery sent some freed slaves who wanted to return to Africa there after buying up a bunch of land and basically giving it to them to let them form Liberia.
That's a very important part of the history of Liberia. Thanks for your comments, it is highly appreciated. 💖😍🙌🏽👌🏽
Liberia was before slavery ended not afterwards.😂
What a lie. It’s Sierra Leone that the British government bought land in. Liberia was invaded by the returned slaves, they met the Krahn people there who are indigenous to the land.
Before making such a bold statement, do your research first. The disease of Liberian man is that, they know it all and won’t allow themselves to learn.
Muito interessante !!!
Completed 23 and me ancestory and found that I have montsterrado blood within me 🎉
Liberia is being portrayed as a prosperous country but their continued cival, political and ethnic wars have ravaged many of its prosperous towns and cities
😂😂😂 sounds about white
Plus.. trash problem does not add to beauty
Does Monrovia have skyscrapers and flyovers and superhighways?
That is a futuristic impression about a green city of Monrovia with sustainable carbon emissions as envisaged by the government of Liberia. 💖🙌🏽👌🏽
Nope
❤ home, sweet home!
Ethiopia was also not colonial by the European,they fought them off.
That's right, the African Continental.They should of stick together,but they were not.Ethiopia
Were the only one who was living up to God's words.And that's why they fought the European off.Amen🙏
Ethiopia was a kingdom and become a Republic later which makes Liberia the first Republic in Africa

🇹🇹🖤😌
Pls what’s the music name? I really need it
Now I can comment on this video, for once you said the truth about Liberia🇱🇷 not like others saying 🇱🇷 was founded or created by freed slaves , they gained independence from the US or was colonized by US kinda sh**
At 00:31 "Liberia was a colony" and at 00:41 "Liberia is the only African state not to be colonized". Have you forgotten about Ethiopia?
May tata nzambi protect liberia and Alkablan means Africa
I am sorry but u have to know that Ethiopia is also independent (colonized)country in Africa.
Ethiopia like Liberia has never been colonised
You are right 💖👌🏽
Ethiopia was a kingdom and become a Republic later which makes Liberia the first Republic in Africa
ETHIOPIA IS NOT A REPUBLIC... LIBERIA IS THE OLDEST REPUBLIC OF AFRICA
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Members of the senate be having terms that last 9 years, africans must rally get up and raise their voices againts such stuff
The American Colonization Society
A reallb🎉❤
Wish this was share with the tik tok community 😊
Ethopia was never colinized also.
Like video, tourist, well should be a good thing other than the predators that if they think they can make a buck will try to corrupt everything so that they can make their buck. Bible people taking on others beliefs and culture not a good thing why the world is a mess. But maybe I will get a chance to visit one day
😢😢
Man, I only visit a country for women and you didn't talk about the women.
Liberian women are very warm and lovely ...sorry we missed that 💖😍💖
@@rakghana
Thank you.
Correct spelling is "Bassa" not Basa. That's my tribe
Ethiopia resisted colonization.
Ethiopia was a kingdom and become a Republic later which makes Liberia the first Republic in Africa
Ethiopia was not colonised.
Yes, you are right, Ethiopia was never colonised but Ethiopia was a Kingdom which later became a Republic whiles Liberia started as a Republic. So technically speaking Liberia is the first Republic in Africa
Why is Liberia 🇱🇷 not rich?
The USA is your answer because we would use it to liberate Africa as we done before 😂😂😂
Bad leadership. Years of civil
war, but praise God Liberia is gradually coming along🙏🏿🙏🏿
First 🥇
Thanks for watching 💝👌
Me i want marry Liberia old lady, she can put me through
Where are the cannibals and murder?
In America and Europe😊
1 Mark 13:35: "... watch therefore, for ye do not know when the master of the house comes: evening, or midnight, or cock-crow, or Morning ". This goes in the same sense as Ezekiel 1:19-21...
2 And although perfection is not man’s business and that he is not ready, he wants to hear that "the rapture is for such a year ..." There has been a multitude of false dates but he wants more. But unfortunately, he wants it from everywhere and from anyone. And yet throughout the Bible, it is only the Spirit of Daniel who has the notion of times. Check that from Genesis to Revelation. No prophet except for Daniel. And it is Daniel who made use of the expressions of time first: "a time and times and a half time", and Daniel 7:12 says:"... a season and a time" andnot "some time" as Louis Segond says. Similarly: "2300 evenings [and]mornings" not 2300 days and nights, but evenings and mornings as we see it in Esther. "70 weeks, 1260 days, 1290 days, 1335 days ..." thus, in Daniel 7:12, it is question of: "for a season and a time" and not "for some time".
3 And if God permits, I will devote a preaching to that, and to the characters in the book of Daniel! ... I do say, "If God permits" because He alone knows if it will not be subject to different interpretations from false brothers.
4 Have you seen the imprint of all the Spirits of God in the book of Revelation? That's it! But today I want to indicate the rapture in a general sense. According to the Bible, is it in the evening, at midnight, at the cock-crow or in the morning? And yet, the evening time has passed and the morning which Mark 13:35 talks about is the time of the visitation of Asia and the Arab nations.
5 First, Matthew 25:6 says that there was a Message then the virgins arise ... Then they trim their torches ...Then in the long run, the foolish grow heavy while the wise are still awake and boiling. Then the foolish say to the wise virgins: Lay your hands on us so that we may be given to walk on water, to disappear and to also perform these miracles of which you bear witness...
And got destroyed by America ...
How?
in this video nothing to see except dance .....
81 The skin all over her body was numb, with sores as if she had received a general anaesthetic. And all the examinations of the hospital having revealed that she was fine, she started to explain the Message around her and even to her parents and to come to the assembly with her sister. But the Brethren were suspicious of her because they saw that she was pretending. She said, "Oh, this Message is the whole truth! Kacou Philippe is the only true prophet! Thank you Lord! I believe entirely! I am ready for everything, including baptism." But the Brothers did not baptise her. And after a while, she stopped coming to the assembly. She was not healed, but she also did not die. And I was glad that at least this one did not die.
are you kidding. i lived there 3 years. this is a ridiculous video
The mark of the beast today is, it is the holy spirit that acts in those Catholic, Protestant, evangelical and Branhamist churches.
33 From generation to generation, the Truth has always been with only one living prophet messenger on the earth. He is the one who has the keys of the Kingdom; he is the one who is the way, the truth and the life in his time. And when you open the Bible, you see Isaiah, Jeremiah, Amos, Ezekiel, and so on. They are names of prophets. The truth, it is with a living prophet messenger, and not in a church. But what are you doing therefore with the Bible which is in your hands? If not, is it really for Salvation that you go to church? And yet, if God saves a Baptist, a Pentecostal, a revival church member or assembly of gods, how can He condemn the Pharisees, Judas and Cain? [Kc.5v27] [Kc.108v14] [Kc.130v23] [Kc.131v35]
1 … We know that there are two seeds on the earth! A seed of God through Adam then Abel and a seed of the devil through the serpent then Cain, and that's what I want to talk about this evening. But to begin with, I would like to say that if a sister insults or says an offensive word to her child, you must call her out to order on the fact that the Message prohibits that! If she persists, the elders must hear her! It is an act of insubordination!
2 Now bear in mind that when God decides to send a prophet on the earth, it’s because there is no more truth on the earth. A prophet of God descends on the earth when the whole world and all the churches become respectively Sodom and Egypt. And this prophet comes as the Kingdom of God and the only source of Salvation in his generation. [Ed: The congregation says, "Amen"].

2 And this sublime doctrine is unavoidable even for very minor sins, that is to say, involuntary or by mistake. For example, if someone asks you for some money and you give it to him without any question and he goes to play lottery, buy cigarettes, buy some alcoholic drink ... or if you murmur or sing a pagan song by mistake... you are guilty. If you associate, even for one second, with a person of these Catholic, Protestant, evangelical and Branhamist churches, including Islam and Judaism or those missions and ministries to pray, you are guilty, just like the one who consults a diviner or fetish priest. If you are somewhere without a Bible and there is a Louis Segond or Scofield or Thompson or King James version, you shall look on that as a trap of Satan.
Fake news.
7 Later, in verse 8, a second angel came out, not of a seminary or pastoral school but of Heaven. To announce some theology? No! To announce a forty-year-old or a hundred-year-old sermon? No! To go and reveal the Word to the teachers and trainers in pastoral schools? No! To go and give his vision about what someone said forty years ago? No! ... BUT THE TIME HAD COME TO PREACH THE GOSPEL OF ANOTHER RANGE! [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]. To preach the condemnation of Babylon, the Catholic church because she had fought, killed the saints and corrupted every way of Salvation. And this is made clear in Revelation 17. It was in the 15th and 16th centuries with the Reformation. And that led to the Protestantism.
18 But what these great rabbis could not do, a pagan had done it. You see? King Herod had done it but with an evil intention. He had asked the magi to tell him since when the star appeared and all these things. But the scribes and the Pharisees and all those ones did not know anything of it. You see? These great pastors, these reverends, these bishops had not had this idea because of their pride. And that is what is still happening today on the earth while God has brought back again the living star which moves for the Salvation of humanity. [Ed: The congregation says, "Amen!"].
