Seems like just the right amount of diversity.

Im glad to have a cart for my hay bales. Cant image ne carrying on my back!
I keep seeing things and looking up jobs in them. They no longer exist
Singapore was not a swampy fishing village.
I think they forgot to teach sustainability to their people. All of this could still be here if they were taught how to manage, and take care of it. & possibly thought of their future generations. As long as the NR are available there’s still time to change!

Love Puerto Rico, brings tears to my eyes , I'm from Dominican Republic living in L.A. California but when living with my parents used to go there every year for a month staying with close relatives , remember going Caribe Hilton to the beach for an entire day and getting very sun burned .
1st century cushites from Ethiopia settle in Tanganyika 10th century AD about this time the fable of fijian from Tanganyika ( Chronological History man in Tanganyika)
In Africa, in this Taqanaika region, dwelt for a long time warrior group of people called the ' Viti ' people Africa king them very well
Being a grandson of a fijian chief, our legend state we traveled down the river Rufiji in Africa south of Tanzania, Apparently we were warrior who also worked as gold mines Egypt
Why do Fijian circumcision No doubt the fijian brought the custom with them in remote times, and it's origin is probably the same in their case as in that of the Nacua of Central America, the Egyptian and Bantu race
DNA test blood Fijian originally 65% Melanesian 35% Melanesian came European slave trade
Samoa is not cannibal people
That true cuz 'Viti ' in Africa refers to warrior tribe of cannibal that dominated parts of Tanzania ancient times %? Lived along the Rufiji river. Some of their descendants still today called fiji people
Still plenty of land to develop. Top of Mauna Kea is perfect. Views forever. 🤑🤑🤑
Este video. Fue más arriba del 26. Pues si aprecian ya el Capitolio estaba que aunque no estaba supuestamente terminado se inaguro en el 29. 👌🇵🇷
I still remember at the age of 5 in 1970 Myself, my Mom and her Mom went went from Los Angelous to Wisconsin to visit family on a Sante Fe F7 Warbonet passenger train. We actually had to speed way up for about 20 min. to avoid a tornado in Iowa corn country that was going to cross our route. We just missed it as we could see it cross behind up about 2 miles away from the dome car. 😊
Trouble is we attracted so many people to California from other states we became overcrowded. Then those people who found it too hard to live in California turned around and bad mouthed this great state ! Don't like it ? LEAVE ! You don't belong here anyway. As a NATIVE, i feel I can say that !
Europeans don't know what they're talking about - this video is FULL of errors, misrepresentations, and falsehoods.
rare to see to many white ppl in 1 European country. this was before left wing parties went for Open-boarder, replace the European ppl etc. crazy to think what Arbeiderpartiet and SV has done to Norway.
before multiculturalism, so weird to see. different place, now people are killing each other in Oslo because of mass immigration
To the content creator of this video I’m making a short 3 min song video n woukd like to use a small clip of your video here , about 15 seconds ! Need your permission and thank you will give you credit
Lost to the liberals 😂😂
You should make a new video ! 💯!
'Jungle Warriors'? Is that what you call them? They made a sport and pass-time of killing fauna and pillaging in remote wilderlands of innocent, vulnerable coloured people.
3:34 nasan na Kaya Yung matanda ngayon
This was back in the better days. I grew up in Edmonds 1960's-1980's.. moved to Lake Stevens in 1993 and currently still reside here. Time has ruined our cities and this State, Homeless people everywhere, crime is out of control, drug usage, and traffic is nuts.
You mean the communist socialists ruined our nation and our state? Yea they really did.
This is all I have. I was born in 1998, and I have always felt out of place. Thanks for uploading.
The caucasians did tremendous harm to this city?
Sad but reality kaya lang nmn maganda ang pinas that era dahil lamg dim nmn sa espanya at america...simula.ng ilipat ang control sa mga pinoy nasira na.. minsan parang mganda pa n gang ngaun kolonya tayo ng america baka maganda pa buhay natin.. realtalk lang
Bin in den 60ern in Frankfurt aufgewachsen und lebe immer noch hier. Herrlich, meine alten Spielplätze rund um die Alte Oper zu sehen. Leider ist der Film etwas zusammenhanglos geschnitten und kommentiert, trotzdem eine Freude!
That so many commentors admire their perceived benefits of having oppressed underclasses comes as no surprise to the majority of earthlings. Today they lament the loss of apartheid, minority rule & racial discrimination. Pointing fingers at a fledgling democracy no longer under such crimes against humanity, whitewashing the social evils & economic exploitation of those of a different skin color & praising how nice everything was back then. Yes, this comes as no surprise to humans.
Dulu kami suku dayak pulau Kalimantan/Borneo island di bodohi penjajah sekarang jika dibodohi seperti dulu akan kami balas dengan perang,salam dari dayak ngaju
Golden age of Sri Lanka was under British. Sri langkans don't know how to rule even today Sri Lanka is a hellhole.
This is the year 2024 nothing looks like that anymore. Most of the farms are gone many moons ago. Most malls are GONE. Sun city not the same.
2:7min gentelmen nice writers legends
Where are all the trolleys?
The coming of the white man? More than the invasion of the white man.
