Maybe you've heard about inflation in Argentina or Venezuela, or 1920s Germany if you're old school. Yeah, those countries had a crazy situation, but none of them come close to Zimbabwe, a country that really puts the hyper in hyperinflation. The largest bill they ever printed, which is also the largest in history, was 100 trillion dollars, which at it's peak was worth $0.80. Nowadays it goes for much more as a collector's item.
This was all I had ever heard about Zimbabwe. But that was more the result of one man's poor economic policies. What were the people of Zimbabwe like? What does the country look like in 2024? How is the food and matakos? Due to the turbulent history the country had with race, I was a little nervous flying in. But there was only one way to find out..

We have one last stop ahead on this newest tour of Africa--and it's a big one. Hope you're enjoying the journey. Also fun fact I forgot to mention: the former dictator of Ethiopia, Mengistu, actually fled to Zimbabwe and is still in exile there today. Didn't think there'd be a connection between the two places but there you go!

Thanks for visiting this southern African nation once the breadbasket of SADC, in a few words independent 1980, liberated by two factions the ruling ZANLA-ZANU PF the majority Shona speaking , ZIPRA-PF-ZAPU predominantly the minority Ndebele people who suffered purges post independence in a horrific genocide called “ Gukurahundi “ ZANU PF has ruled the nation by an iron fist, intimidation, disappearances/ Imprisonment of political opponents, farming and mining were the biggest sectors of the economy. When the opposition emerged in the late 90’s Dictator Mugabe under pressure to prop up his power base used his rural war veteran base to take farms in probably was the biggest mistake he made, although other people will beg to differ, add the Second Congo war intervention by Zimbabwe defence forces drained the economy. The disputed elections in 2008 which upon discovering that they ZANU PF had lost, unleashed a wave of violence killing, maiming opposition supporters to the point SADC the regional body intervened to end the madness, in a nutshell the illegitimate Emerson Mnangagwa spearheaded the reign of terror as he’d done during the infamous “Gukurahundi”s To add salt to the unhealed wounds he won another disputed election but this time he unleashed the once professional Army who embarrassingly lost all honour by shooting innocent civilians on the streets with videos that still circulate of the soldier kneeling shooting whilst his section commander or platoon sergeant berates him to stop. So all the mess in the nation is a product of a circle of greedy men and women who defend themselves by use of Defence Forces, Police and a crooked judiciary, to loot, rule with impunity using the narrative that we liberated the country but it’s already 44 years this year so it’s greed and entitlement. Thanks again, we pray Zimbabweans may have real liberation one day from tyranny.❤❤❤❤❤

Zimbabwe has changed a lot since the 1970s and 80s. It's a completely different country now, and the country is actually worse off today economically and developmentally than it was forty years ago. Now they use the USD there and manufacture and produce very little so most everything besides fruit, vegetables etc. are imported and even then they still import foodstuffs. Everything is overpriced there, even with a western salary so Imagine how locals feel. No bargains to be had anywhere. $10-20 dollars just to have lunch and nothing special but for backpackers and long term travelers eating out three meals a day you can imagine how expensive and annoying that must be.

It is more developed because it's a former colonial country. Back when it was known as Rhodesia, it was a first world nation and had one of the highest rates of GDP relative to population size of any nation on earth, I think it might have actually been number 1. I wouldn't expect the economic woes to be solved any time soon, just like South Africa it will continue to decline as inflation and corruption grow...you can be certain of this, the fact that they would rather let the traffic lights remain in a non-operational state than fix them says everything.

@SabbaticalTommy thanks for sharing your experience of Zimbabwe. From my perspective the country has a lot of personality and beauty, But it also has a lot of problems like you said. I know most people don’t understand how strong the United States Dollar is globally. That is why we are always fighting to keep it that way. But from my point of view whenever a 3rd world country decide to use the US Currency it’s for one of 2 reasons. Reason number 1 is because their currency has crashed and burned. Reason number 2 is because the dollar can be used all on over the world. Which is an amazing thing but what they don’t understand is that using US Currency can be super challenging, especially for the economy. And we just seen that first hand, $15(USD) for a meal and two sodas is pretty expensive compared to other countries in Africa. For example if you were going to spend $15(USD) in Kenya or Nigeria you would be able to eat Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner! Everything is 2-3x the price is Zimbabwe. So that takes a huge toll on everyone and that’s why the Uber driver said “Either you’re RICH or you’re POOR” there is no in between. I really hope that one day the government decides to actually take care of its people and starts putting money back into its economy instead of its own pockets. But once again thanks again Tommy for the great video and I’m glad you enjoyed yourself! Can’t wait to see where you go next. Bless up

I just read that what happened is that the west imposed severe sanctions on Zimbabwe for the farm evictions, somewhat similar to what they are trying to do to Russia now. But Russia is big and sanction-proof so they remain unaffected while Zimbabwe is too small to survive such an onslaught, that's why their economy collapsed.

@@misstinafz My suffering is not of a financial kind. I'm doing fairly well in that regard. It is of a different kind. Let me expatiate. In my home city, Pretoria, there are many beggars at the main intersections. Most are women who stand in the sun with a child or two asking for money from motorists. Many are Zimbabwean women (yes, I asked, and they said so -- and spoke Shona or Ndebele to prove it). I used to give them something, but I have since stopped. I once asked one of them where the father of the child was. She said he was in prison, having been arrested for illegal mining in South Africa. Seeing such suffering pains me; hence I described myself as "longsuffering". On a different note: I agree that in SA (just like in any country) there are lazy people. But please understand that a large proportion of black South Africans do not have special skills. So they count on menial jobs to make ends meet. So when they find themselves having to compete with (admittedly better-trained) foreigners, in their country of birth, no less, they get frustrated and resentful towards foreigners. That is why I wish Zim could be a successful nation. But I suppose you will need good leadership for that to come to fruition.

Of course Zim is beautiful. Always has been. Amazing how people are miss the irony in this video. I"m told Zim wanted to get their stolen land back. Free. From the colonialists who had forcefully taken it. Sanctions were applied, by guess who? Western countries, including the one this UTuber comes from! But here he is, blaming the victim for having a ruined economy. The irony!
