German East Africa (1885-1919) Lied "Heia Safari/Wie oft sind wir Geschritten" 

"From Cape to Alexandria?"

@@lucaslevinsky8802 The british had important colonies in Eygpt and South africa and wanted to have them connected by land.

The british didnt lay any claims on the land though, something Bismarck asked them about before having them as officail colonies

Also with Portugal...

@@hyperion3145 yeah portugual , tho it wasn't very official , portugual wanted to link mozambique and angola trough rhodesia (eithern northern or southern i dont remember) wich they occupied for a bit but then the british where like : stop occupying this land or we will kick you by force so the portuguese retired

I love his version of Sudwest

Patriotic Brit Gé Korsten Südwest is best Südwest

this is better

Ok but what does that translates to?

@@waterwatereverywhere3574 It is an interjection. There is no exact translation. You could translate it with "Hey!" or maybe "Hooray!"

@@walthermichelbrink4195 thanks man, I hope your having a great day

There are other Swahili words rooted from German language such as: Zahanati (hospital) derived from german Zahnarzt (dentist). Other words of german origin are: shule (school), Sekunde (time), etc..

@@amenemhurt8817 That's interesting, I never knew that.

Heia!

Ok. Epic.

I saw that flag on Amazon

Type proposed German East African flag and could be there in Wikipedia or anywhere else.

upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/36/Flag_of_Deutsch-Ostafrika.svg/1200px-Flag_of_Deutsch-Ostafrika.svg.png its here

You won't find it anywhere, because it is only a proposal of what the flag of German East Africa, or today's Tanzania, could look like, but due to the outbreak of the First World War, the defeat and demise of the German Empire and the loss of all colonies, it was never realized.

@@handlesarecringe957 Dude was a badass, holding much more numerous British colonial troops at bay with only a handful of native African and German troops, limited supplies and sheer size of his (and his men's) balls.

Ancient Egypt, the Malian Empire, Rhodesia, and Green Libya = probably the best African countries in history

Steffen Moore Botswana, Cape Verde, Libya (until 2011), And Equatorial Guinea are doing fine. Angola’s sending financial aid to Portugal at this point. New African colonization is unrealistic at this point, European decline in Africa happened after they were humiliated in the Suez, and now that Europeans have Africans modern weapons like guns, another conquest of the African continent would meet heavy resistance

The Zulu Kingdom= best Africa

European ottoman is best Europe

@@isyraf9989 nope

Patriotic Brit Well, it was not aquired by conquering, like most of the Europeans got their colonies, but rather bought by private investors like Adolf Lüderitz and later taken over by the state as Schutzgebiete, or protective areas. Colonial settlements were established and much more land was bought of the Africans. There were at one point hostilities between the Germans and the Herero (an indigenous people). One of the starting factors was that some Africans didn‘t want to pay off their loans, because they didn‘t understand the concept of loans and thought the money was gifted to them (I don‘t spontaneously remember all the causes, would have to look it up again). Either way, the Herero started to rebell and killed (mostly male) German settlers and cut off body parts of soldiers. Leutwein, the commander of Deutsch-Süd-West-Afrika, wanted to settle this diplomatically, which was considered outrageous in Germany, because of what the Herero did and he was replaced with Lothar von Trotha, a man known for his ability to act decided. He fought the Herero with his small amount of troops, which was later reinforced. In the battle at the Waterberg he defeted the enemy, but was unable to eliminate their forces. These rebelling troops then fled towards a steppe, behind German territory, roughly of the size of Switzerland. He then said, that the Herero would no longer be considered vassals of Germany and no male prisoners would be taken. In the first part of his infamous order he ordered his troops to shoot "at" women and children as well. The second part of this order is often not mentioned, that is why it‘s so infamous, because here he explained, that he means shooting over the heads of women and children, so that they would flee and that he is sure that the German soldier will act according to his good reputation and will self explainingly not shoot women or children. The Herero would go to some water fountains near the steppe but were always chased away after a short amount of time so that they wouldn‘t settle there. Some people say, that the Germans were guarding all of these waterspots permenantly, which wouldn‘t even have been possible, because they were so few men there. Also some people say, that the steppe was a completely dry desert, which it was not. A few Hereros fled to English territories, some fled somewhere else (I don‘t know where exactly anymore) and 14,000 who weren‘t involved in crimes against Germans came back. You‘ll often see many people claiming that there were 100,000 Hereros alive before this, or something along those lines and that this was a genocide against multiple tens of thousands of Hereros, while it is the simple truth, that nobody knows, how many Hereros actually lived there, because nobody counted them (except the 14,000 who came back). Could have as well been 20,000 or 25,000 or whatever number above 14,000 that comes to your mind. Considering they were able to get water and didn‘t flee to a real desert, their chances to survive wouldn‘t have been so bad. Different topic: In this wonderful song here, they sing about living in German African colonies and being acompanied by Askari. Askari is the Arabic word for soldiers and German forces in Africa were largely made up of these Askari. There were also regular German Protestants/Catholics in these armies. The Askari were North African, Arabic and Sudanese Muslims and indigenous African pagans and sometimes Christians. As far as I know, Christians and Muslims lived peacefully alongside each other until the late German colonial age, when Islam rose its consiousness. For the most part religious conflicts occured between the monotheists and pagans, although not being open fights. In battle during WW1, they showed great discipline and loyalty, unlike the African soldiers of England and France and had a reputation of being invincible. That‘s all I know spontaneously, hope it helps. (Any editing of the comment is of pure grammatical nature)

Thank you for the response Samaritan!

Thank you for taking the time to write this comment. Very insightful!

@Neon Dawn Ahem, mind your manners, degenerate.

@@thorstenbohms4206 In today's version of denying a Genocide...

Smart man. And apparently, he was the only person to tell Hitler to go F@#k himself, and get away with it!

Well, having beaten the Commies would have been worthwhile....

The prosperity of a colony increases proportionally with the number or natives with their hands chopped off

The German Colonies have been lost after WW1 and in WW1 Göhring was just a Fighter Pilot.

Are you serious?

Just search for kaiserreich in google and you will see

My bad. I thought you were under the impression that Mittelafrika existed.

What?

is this a joke?

@@mrman9977 Yes, it was. But in the 21st century, the N-Word should not exist (except maybe for the harmless version "nigga").

It's not even the n-word lol.

These times were long before the Nazi party.

Ah yes, everyone who doesn't hold my opinion is a Nazi. Search for other buzzwords my bro.
