When I was in high school we were given an assignment to do a report on a country. I was assigned Upper Volta. No, not Germany, not Sweden, or Germany or Mexico. All I could find out about it was population and land area. This was pre-Internet.

Congratulations to Burkina Faso's Diébédo Francis Kéré, who won the 2022 Pritzker Prize, architecture's "Nobel Prize".

Isn't this where all of our electronic waste goes to be burned down or scrap metals? Or was that another country nearby?

The fact this is only 2 minutes is annoying... even the other ones are like 8 min

Whatever the French touch turns into shit.

Well it's my country. Our biggest problem right now is terrorism in the countryside.
On a side note, the last comment of your video on president Kabore didn't age well, we got another coup this year.
