Most facts were correct except that they were independent from Britain before mugabe started his reign of terror in 1980, the country used to be named the Republic of Rhodesia, back when it was still the bread basket of africa…
Thanks for the comments! We’ve been on hiatus due to our move to San Francisco. New videos should start pumping out next week… so stay tuned.
In ref. ‘WHAT SHOULD YOU KNOW’, what should you know about zimbabwe, although I Agree with most of what you said, I disagree about Zimbabwean ’s life expectancy of 37 and 34 years.
You are miss-informed. I am a Zimbabwean, and I am 40 years old, and I have 8 siblings, some who are in their 50’s.
My parents are still alive, and they in their early 80’s.
You should get the facts right before, you publish wrong information around the world.
@Mary I completely agree that we should get our facts right before publishing. In this case we found an abundance of source material which stated the life expectancy currently in Zimbabwe for woman is around 34 and for men is around 37; some of these sources are posted below.
