Welcome to the land of Mud, Gold and Cotton. From masks to mosques, sand and salt, rivers and revolutions. This is Mali. Later today Ken and I will ship out your orders from Geographynow.com! Thanks for the support guys! In the meantime Enjoy this episode!
Did you know Mansa Musa sort of crashed the economy when he did his pilgrimage, he spent so much gold on souvenires and all in egypt, he dropped the worth of gold for a decade or so.
I thank everyone for the love for my country Mali , we love everyone wherever you come from. And the people in Mali are very polite and respectful, please go visit we have great histories and cultural. Bless up!
I figured out my dna has a little bit of Mali in it so I’ve been eager to learn more, I consider myself to be white but it’s just cool and I’m proud of all my ethnicities
“Mali The place where the hippopotamus lives - no wait, The place where the hippopotamus king - no still wrong, The king lives in the hippopotamus - No, The hippopotamus lives in the king - NO, The king is a hippopotamus - AAAHHH!!!!”.
Well, he explained it in a video once. I think he said the end theme song was composed by Ken...? I don't know, but it was either Ken or someone else. But then again, maybe it wasn't him. For some reason, I'm thinking of a name that starts with "K". Keith does play bass, but I don't think it was him. But anyway, Barbs said it was composed by his roommate. (or at least, i think it was his roommate... He played the ukulele and whistled a melody over it, and that became the ending theme! :D I don't remember exactly who it was, but that's one cool thing about this channel. So many channels just use royalty free stock music for their intros and outros and whatever, so it's a breath of fresh air to see the people of this channel compose songs for it and be original! ^-^
I really love Mali music! It's my favorite music! You should know Rokia Traore, Ali Farka Toure, Toumani Diabate, Omou Sangare, Salif Keita, and a lot of musicians more! ❤️ 🎶
I watched this episode because one of our national volleyball players is half Malian. And he did so well in every match he played. So, I'd always been interested and wanted to know about where he was from. Now I know and I'm glad that he lives here where I live since his life is much better here. I hope Mali and its people catch up with other countries and get a better future soon.
Great episode! Crazy that noone knows Mansa Musa Please note that the Yassa (Yassa poulet/ Yassa Dieune, with fish/ Yassa Yap with meat, etc) is a dish from Casamance, South of Senegal ! Malian people are really close to Senegalese people too (I'm from Senegal but my great grandmother was from Mali and I have many cousins who are married to Maliain guys 😊) In 1960, Mali and Senegal were even forming one and only country named Federation of Mali
For notable people, you forgot the Tuareg band Tinariwen (they also spent some of their formative years in Libya and Algeria, but you didn't mention them there either! ;) ) They're really interesting. Check 'em out Barbs
For you historians interested Salif Keita one of the notable people mentioned is a direct descent of the Mali Empire Royal family line such as Sundiata Keita the founder and his famous grandson Mansa Musa
Djinn Thought He invested in the Education of Timbuktu and Djenne making them strong institutions of learning. It’s not like 100% of his spending was wasted
@@sjappiyah4071 "Djinn Thought" was just expressing that there's better leader's of the Mali empire that should be praised as much or more than Mansa Musa.
I'm surprised Souleymane Cisse, a prolific Malian film director, didn't get mentioned in the famous Malians section. That's like doing the Italy episode and not mentioning Federico Fellini.
@@sepulcher8263 federico fellini is one of the most influential italian directors in the 50s to the 70s his most famous films are 8 1/2 and la dolce vitta but hes not very know in the us outside the interested in art house cinema, but he is a really great director go check him out
Yep. It's hard to keep track of all the various African Empires that existed throughout time in that region. Ghana, Songhai, Jolof (or Jollof), Timbuktu, Mali itself... and I believe there was a few more in there too. Wild history for them for sure.
mali has a lot of history with india. many indians don't know that once mansa musa( richest man in history) sent some of its messengers to explore and those people came to south india( some texts even said that mansa musa himself came here) and they found a lot of knowledgable people in the kerala and tamil nadu state and that time emperor sent some people there to learn and teach things in mali. and in return mansa mussa gave a lot of gold. thats why you will see that in the temples of south india huge amounts of gold ornaments and sculptures are kept( only one temple shri padmanabha swamy temple has gold ornaments and assets of over rupees 1.2 trillion.
We Germans make often jokes about going to Timbuktu when we are actually going to a place in nowhere. I didnt even know this place exists. Thank you Paul, greetings from you-know-where.
In India we have a song whose lyrics say “My village is Jhumri Talaiya, yours might be Timbuktu”. Jhumri Talaiya is a town in India but I never knew Timbuktu is a real place
Glad you're excited for my country episode. Very proud to be Maltese and have tried my best to contribute to the episode by emailing geography now a couple of times with helpful information.

@@YourLocalMairaaboo yeah a king of a kingdom of Egypt called him to visit when he came back from Mecca and he threw so much gold the economy of that kingdom crashed
Also, as researching, filming, and editing those unrecognised countries takes basically the same amount of work as regular countries, there's not much filler about them.
Mashed like so hard on this. On twitter he posted a picture of various unrecognized states in Africa, though many were historical and this isn't a history channel it'd be cool if he'd do videos on 'em anyway because they can be very controversial but he did such a great job with Israel, he could pull it off
In the section where you listed the names of the famous or notable peoples from Mali or of Malian descent, you forgot to include or mention that Malian immigrant who scaled a building in Paris France to rescue a 4 year old toddler hanging from the edge of a balcony.
Can't wait till you guys get 5o Zimbabwe. It's an amazing place with wonderfull peoples, if i don't say so myself.

It just north of South Africa and boarders Botwana, Zambia, Mozambique and Namibia. That last one I learnt thanks to you guys. Great series you bloody legends.
Great music from Mali! Regarding the poverty despite great natural resources: many greedy corporations are happy to pay for private armies and dictators so they can get cheap gold, etc.
Because the Morroco episode is coming up I'd like to bring up something you missed in the Algeria episode and that is the fact that you said morrocans and Algerians don't get along which is false we're like brothers sharing the same history, language and culture it's just the government who has issues with each other. The people love each other (same goes for Tunisia). And I'd like you talk a bit more about the berber/amazigh population in North Africa seeing as it's often something many people don't know about and therefore just assumes everyone in North Africa is Arab which is completely not the case.
Sami.B. hey I'm Algerian and I fully agree . nous sommes un seul peuple divisé par des gouvernements haineux, stéréotypés comme arabes alors que nous sommes juste arabisés de langue ,nuance . nous sommes génétiquement amazigh et formons un seul peuple . love from Algeria .
One Lazy Boi the ones who are trying to storm the fences of Melilla and Ceuta aren't really morrocans for the most part but rather west Africans (from countries such as Mali and Niger) who usually travel through Morroco to get to Europe. And btw it's kind of an unnecessary fact to point out seeing as it isn't really related to my comment nor anything that geography now usually talk about in their videos.
Gennaro Savastano shhh let them believe the lies I'd rather not have an argument under my comment with angry people screaming at me for saying I'm Amazigh and telling me that we (North Africans) are all Arabs.

@soryxl I was there playing with a Rockabilly group, entertaining the UN-Troops. In Gao particularly it was tense-ish. The general atmosphere was cool and friendly, but with undeniable sious undertone. Edgy, of sorts. Within a week after we left there was a minor attack on Camp Castor. We left for Koulikoro then, which was just great!
@soryxl oh of course I do, but thank you for being so thoughtful! I also love me some Songhoy Blues & habib Koite too. It was a shame we werent allowed to leave the military bases since especially Koulikoro there was lots of music coming the houses. I so dig the drony desert blues, and Ali Farka reigns supreme.

Geography Now good but one thing why mali here is not considered a whole country because is a desert
Kind of sad how Mali went from one of the richest countries in the world to one of the poorest in the world
richest man*
Having a rich king doesn't make the country rich, at that time pretty much everyone everywhere was poor
Clerisvaldo Nogueira no the people of Mali when the king was rich were rich, they all had slot of gold
Colonialism.
colonialism, obsolete sahara trade, and islam fundamentalist ruin the country
Senegal should really be in the friend zone! We share many aspect of our culture, moderate Islam and languages!

Thank you for the geography lesson of Mali. I had my ancestry test done and the DNA test states that I am 16% from Mali.
Hey Barbs,
Just wanted to say that y'all rock and geography is tight lol
Also just wanted to say hey to Kenny, Noah and keith, also Kenny you are too cute and Noah has very kind eyes ok that's all lol

Hey Barbs, I would like to submit you an idea, I think it would be a good idea to create a Geography Now discord server where we could interact with you, and share our knowledges about the world and futhermore why not help you with your reasearch. I hope this comment will be seen ^^ much respects from France.
Mansa Musa owned 400 bln. worth gold.
I’m looking forward to the Episode about Switzerland. Should be on the 9th October 2019
No :c
I really love that whistling song at the end good job GN
Little fun fact: In my language "Mali" means wrong
Salvador Laurente Jr of course, I am
Supreme 0964 yes
I think you are Filipino.
Isn't it.
I'm from India
In my language it means small
Because I think every flag look exactly the same color and and same meaning, but the difference is the design of a color flag that different from the other
Love MALI from MALI :)
me too
Love from the United States of America to Mali! 🇺🇸❤️🇲🇱
Can't wait for the Malta episode!
How are you still at 1m subs? So underrated
Haha, he said goa.. But it's actually gao. Goa is in India damn it!!
@soryxl I am glad to have visited Gao 2yrs ago
@soryxl I was there playing with a Rockabilly group, entertaining the UN-Troops. In Gao particularly it was tense-ish. The general atmosphere was cool and friendly, but with undeniable sious undertone. Edgy, of sorts. Within a week after we left there was a minor attack on Camp Castor. We left for Koulikoro then, which was just great!
@soryxl oh of course I do, but thank you for being so thoughtful! I also love me some Songhoy Blues & habib Koite too. It was a shame we werent allowed to leave the military bases since especially Koulikoro there was lots of music coming the houses. I so dig the drony desert blues, and Ali Farka reigns supreme. Love from Cologne / Germany
@soryxl cheers man, if I ever have the chance to go back I'll keep you posted 🙌 feel free to send pics
I was going to point out his mistake before I saw your comment.
And amadou and mariam ?
Le dimanche à Bamako, c'est le jour de mariage
