[gialt]

Peru is the native land of potatoes, quinoa, maca, quiwicha and all the super food fashionable nowadays lol as well the birth country of Pedro Paulet, who in 1895 was the first person to build a liquid-propellant rocket engine and, in 1900, the first person to build a modern rocket propulsion system. Interesting facts not a lot of people knows about.

[ArdyIRL]

Nice! Finally a flag with blood of those that died for the freedom!!!

[yilmanbabilonia]

I wish I was born in Perú. Such a fascinating country. I love Colombia but Perú has a special place in my heart

[HammerBro]

I'm surprised Inca Kola wasn't mentioned. It's unique flavor comes from lemon verbena, which might be comparable to bubble gum.

[ejaaz]

I just loved the story of the Peruvians who attended the FIFA WC 2018.
Absolute class.

[Inkyminkyzizwoz]

Peru is home to the youngest mother in recorded history - Lina Medina, who gave birth to a baby boy by caesarian section when she was just five years old. The father was never indentified

[leonardogongora]

Vicuña are not as well known, but they are special. They are rare and have finer fibbers (better quality), vicuña wool is super expensive, that’s why the vicuña is the national animal. Also Peru has the most vicuñas

[pandabear]

Anyone mentioned"Inca Cola"?

[paultan]

You had a missed opportunity to start with “Hope you gave the video a stamp of a-PERU-val”

[stocksoul]

I'm from Mexico and I honestly didn't know much about Peru until I watched this week's videos. Super interesting country, so full of culture and beauty. I wish to visit one day.

[adameaton]

I’m a proud Peruvian and think there are so many hidden secrets

[PolarKantele]

- Hey, Patrick. Guess who I am.
- Wolf?
- No, I'm Poland.
- What's the difference?

[tarunchavali]

[drewmalihan]

BLOOD OF THOSE WHO FIGHT FOR THE FREEDUUUHM!


PS. Ah yeah. good luck on the keyboard warriors for the PH episode especially on the 1965-1986 time span.

[Kat-trig]

In the Andes there are four kinds of camels: llamas, vicuñas, alpacas and guanacos. Llamas and alpacas are domesticated, vicuñas and guanacos are wild. Llamas are also bigger and heavier out of the four, while vicuñas are smaller and lighter. That is all. Have a nice day, and greetings from Argentina!

[AlbertBoris]

Peru, the most interesting country in the world in my opinion. Incas, llamas, andes, etc. Been waiting so long for this episode and it turned out juts as expected. Good job!


Also that voicecrack at 3:58

[andrespalacios]

In the coat of arms, on the left side there are 2 broken leaves representing the 2 lost departments during the war of the Pacific (Arica and Tarapacá)

[kenethcrispin]

This episode was as long as the main episode, but was pretty smooth and connective with lots of anecdotes. And ya, so it makes Peru the 5th country with a flag within it's flag.
Finally Philippines is arriving next, expecting it to be epic.
