Whilst we look at the flags and the capitals of each country I’m going to read out about four or five little factoids about the places we’re looking at sound fun I hope it’s informative relaxing enjoyable okay you’re ready let’s do this let’s start with Pakistan this is the flag here of Pakistan
It doesn’t shop great on camera but this part is white over here on the left and we’ve got the Islamic crescent moon and star in white eye dark green background and I keep forgetting but the capital is Islamabad okay some quick facts about Pakistan then so it’s the oldest civilization in the world

The world as well it’s Pakistan okay where next okay where next let’s look at Jamaica I love the flag of Jamaica capital is Kingston Kingston okay some facts Jamaica is the third largest island in the Caribbean I’m guessing the Cuba is the first and the island of
Oh I can’t remember what it is but the one that Dominican Republic in Haiti is on is probably the second Jamaica is home to four major mountain ranges the island is part of the Greater Antilles archipelago with five other Island States this one’s amazing Jamaica actually sit on top of a large
Underwater Mountain it’s incredible and one third of all Jamaicans live in the capital of Kingston okay let’s do it now let’s do South Africa is that your Cape Town here’s the capital but I think there are three capitals on there another flag I love the yellow there
With the black the white the green the red the blue South Africa is the largest producer of macadamia nuts in the world macadamia nut tea transplant in the world took place in 1967 there there are more than 2 000 shipwrecks in and around the South Africa Coast
Last fact on fact on South Africa it is the second largest fruit producer in the world I was aware that strawberries are grown in the winter months our winter their summer and flown into Britain so yeah that doesn’t Shock Me let’s go from the bottom to the top
I wanted to do one on Australia so Australia Canberra is the capital Australia is a continent and country the capital of Australia is Canberra kangaroos only exist exists in Australia nowhere else in the world as well as many other species uh the Great Barrier Reef in Australia
Is the biggest reef system in the world Australia is split into eight states really massive it’s not really given what your status as being large but it is huge and Australia is home to some dangerous animals that’s an understatement particularly in okay I want to look at Iraq next
I believe is one of the only flags in the world to have actual writing on it it says God is great the capital city is I know that this writing on the Brazilian flag and on the Saudi Arabian flag but there are comparatively very few with writing on them
Okay some facts about Iraq Iraqis this is ironic Iraq is home to the world’s oldest civilization but we had that about Iraq means fertile the two rivers run the Euphrates is it one of them I think run through Iraq so yeah it was a very fertile plane drought has uncovered a
3 400 year old city in Iraq superstition about cats could have originated in Iraq and the world’s old EST writing came into exist Ence is that something like of the mayor Sumerian or maybe Syrian shall we do it on England then the vast majority of my subscribers do come from England actually
Capital London I was there last weekend love London England includes over 100 Islands the name England comes from the angles tribe as in the ankles Saxons and jutes that invaded Britain England is divided into 48 counties Queen Elizabeth was the longest reigning monarch who is the longest ringing monarch
A bush is passed away still hold the record for the longest amount of time imposed the BBC is the oldest broadcaster in the world and the next one’s quite funny it says English people are obsessed with tea as if as a fact I think it’s more of a stereotype
As a Welshman I am pretty obsessed with tea to be honest with you but it’s not a cultural thing why next okay let’s go to Namibia next and maybe if you’re not sure it’s in Africa and it’s just here just north of South Africa Namibia has the world’s tallest sand dune
The fish River Canyon is second only second to the Grand Canyon more cheaters live here than anywhere else in the world and Namibia is home to the oldest desert in the world the capital is windhook as we did England let’s do Scotland next our Celtic neighbors to the north Capital Edinburgh
It’s home to one of Europe’s oldest trees oldest trees golf was invented in Scotland the national animal of Scotland is a unicorn have you heard this before so I’m pretty sure that is true over 90 percent of Scottish residents live in less than five percent of the country’s area
And I said there were a Hundred Islands in England there are over 900 Islands in Scotland according to the Scottish Parliament I think Wales has about five not 500 just five next Jordan Capital Amman if you don’t know where Jordan is just here next to Saudi Arabia Iraq Syria Israel Lebanon and Egypt
And of course Palestine there are over 100 000 archaeological sites in Jordan and we said ecological side only 15 percent of Petra has been explored Petra is one of the areas where there’s a lot of excavation and old buildings from thousands and thousands of years ago
The lowest point on Earth is in Jordan I thought that would have been in the Netherlands many famous movies were filmed in Jordan yeah I think most of like the mummy films and stuff were filmed there aren’t they I think they actually go to Egypt Indiana Jones I think may have been done
There as well The planet and the Dead Sea that’s the one that’s so salty you float to the top when you bathe in it the Dead Sea is a natural Spa but it is drying up okay let’s look at Ghana next the black star in the middle which I think is the nickname of the
Football team the black stars capital Akana was the first sub-Saharan African country to gain independence from Colonial rule the name Ghana means King in the soninke language is known for its Rich cultural traditions including music dance and all Ghana is located in the west coast of Africa should take a look
