A Guiné-Bissau, oficialmente a República da Guiné-Bissau, é um país da África Ocidental que cobre 36.125 quilômetros quadrados (13.948 milhas quadradas) com uma população estimada em 1.604.528. Faz fronteira com o Senegal ao norte e a Guiné ao sudeste.

[@ndjiburyreece6199]

so uma correção a minha amada pátria Guiné-Bissau não é um país muçulmano mais sim laico onde tudos são livres de praticar a sua religião e a única parte do país onde encontrarás uma mistura de todos os grupos étnicos vivendo basicamente juntos é a capital Bissau E as oito região que compõe a Guiné-Bissau cada região tem o seu grupo étnico tendo como a capital da região onde podes encontrar alguns pertencentes de outras etnias na qual o foram ali por questão de negócios mas não são dali o que implica que sempre voltam para a sua cidade de origem. Concluo que o único lugar é que encontrará a religião muçulmana em abundância é a província leste( região de Gabu e Bafata) e algumas zonas no sul do país tornando assim a província norte( região de Biombo, Cacheu e Oio)e província sul(Bolama Tombali, Quinara) são regiões meramente animista tendo os seus régulos e seguem as normas das suas etnias

[@bimbowithadegree420]

Concordo, mas acho que o que ele queria dizer é que a Guiné Bissau é um país de maioria muçulmana, ao invés de um país dominado pela fé muçulmana.

[@danatopereira]

those islands are unique, in many terms. especially in terms of african countries and their territory/geography. owning an archipelago, sized about 15% of your landmass, is quite rare for a guinea-bissau sized nation...! greetings from finland!

Guinea-Bissau shares a history of liberation against the Portuguese with Cabo Verde. Amilcar Cabral is a national heroe in both countries. In Cabo Verde he made ways for the Creole language to gain recognition in the goverment. he was a warrior and a scholar. There is also a statue to Amilcar Cabral in Cabo Verde.

[@JvS1711]

That presidential palace was renovated back in 2013-2014 and is now inhabited. The Fulani of GB are generally "black" fulani (integrated/remnants of enslaved tribes) and also don't follow the customs you mention at 7:10.

[@Happymali10]

6:26 Uhm...Luis Cabral has served 7 years, so he HAS served a full 5-year-term. Same (with even more years) goes for Joano Bernardo Vieira.

Hey, love your videos. Just a friendly tip: referencing memes puts quite a heavy timestamp on your videos, which can be unfortunate given that these probably will be watched for years and years to come. Your humor is of course a big part of the show, but given how quickly memes, in particular, get dated, they are probably not the smartest to reference. :)

Guinea-Bissau, officially the Republic of Guinea-Bissau (Portuguese: República da Guiné-Bissau), is a sovereign state in West Africa. It covers 36,125 square kilometres (13,948 sq mi) with an estimated population of 1,815,698. Guinea-Bissau was once part of the kingdom of Gabu, as well as part of the Mali Empire. Parts of this kingdom persisted until the 18th century, while a few others were under some rule by the Portuguese Empire since the 16th century. In the 19th century, it was colonized as Portuguese Guinea. Upon independence, declared in 1973 and recognised in 1974, the name of its capital, Bissau, was added to the country's name to prevent confusion with Guinea (formerly French Guinea). Guinea-Bissau has a history of political instability since independence, and no elected president has successfully served a full five-year term. Only 14% of the population speaks non-creolized Portuguese, established as both the official and national language. Portuguese exists in creole continuum with Crioulo, a Portuguese creole spoken by half the population (44%) and an even larger number speaks it as second tongue; the remainder speak a variety of native African languages. The country's per-capita gross domestic product is one of the lowest in the world. Guinea-Bissau is a member of the United Nations, African Union, Economic Community of West African States, Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, Community of Portuguese Language Countries, La Francophonie and the South Atlantic Peace and Cooperation Zone, and was a member of the now-defunct Latin Union.
