@@sandraubochi9388 The Americo Liberians are not considered part of the indigenous ethnic group or the tribes of Liberia. The Americo Liberians in Liberia is referred to as thr Congur people who left America and settled in Liberia 🇱🇷. The 16 tribes are the people the settlers met when they arrived.
@@MaggieNip americo Liberians are also made up of Caribbeans and freed enslaved ppl from Congo! There were about 11K free & enslaved from America, 3200 free/enslaved from Barbados and over 5000 ppl from Congo that were on ships and the English caught the ship and turned it around to Liberia and became known as Americo or Congo/congur ppl
There are many tribes that was left out. The Gio, mano, grebo Krahn, and the Sarpo people you can find the gio and mano in east northern Liberia including the ivory coast. The grebo, Krahn, and sarpo are also in the south Eastern region of Liberia.
He doesn't have full historical knowledge of the 16 tribes in Liberia. Dey is not a 'major tribe' in Liberia. An extension of the Lorma, just like the Sarpo, a 'subset' of the khran they grew fast during the early 80s. I stand corrected. Major: Bassa Kpessi, Gio, Mende, Grand, Gola, Mano, Kru, Grebo, Vai, Mandingo, Americo-Liberia, kissi and Lorma, the two tungdo chopper.
@@milady7394 The sixteen tribes that are counted are: Dey, Gbandi, Grebo, Kpelleh, Bassa, Lorma, Mano, Belleh, Mende, Krahn, Kissi, Gola, Kru, Gio, Kru, Gio, Mandingo, and Vau. They all have tribal mask and most, if not all live through out West Africa

This is just about half of the story of the ethnic groups in Liberia. Please get it in full before publishing it. A half info is a false information. And it’s misleading. Thanks
If you don't know about a country, do proper research, you left lots of tribes out and your history is not on point, go back and do more research. I'm a Liberian and KRU
I just recieve my African Ancestry Paternal DNA resultson March 21 2022 and it came back as the Kru People living in Liberia if you could reach out to me and give me more history on the KRU people i would really appreciated. My Marternal results came back as the Temne people living in Sierra Leone
@@keith2181 wow, I shared the two countries, my maternal side is from Sierra Leone. You can find the kru in both countries, 🇱🇷 and Sierra Leone 🇸🇱 . The kru people are travelers and best know back than as fishermen, they love sea. They settled in Liberia 🇱🇷, Sierra Leone 🇸🇱 and Ivory Coast..
@@MaggieNip that's amazing because my grand father all he did was fish he was also a bishop. I have never visit Sierra 🇸🇱 or Liberia 🇱🇷 but I do plan on in the near future. Have you visit any of them yet?
@@keith2181 I grew up in Liberia 🇱🇷 and I used to visit my grandmother in Sierra Leone, In fact I might go both countries before the year ends. The Kru live closer to where sea are back than. They are the most educated people in Liberia. Very smart people. Their love for the sea and education is remarkable. I plan this year to go back to Sierra Leone to visit my grandmother grave and have a memorial in her honor. Most kru are Catholics and Episcopalian. I'm a Catholic
@@MaggieNip o wow that's very interesting to know I'm sorry to hear about your grand mother may her soul rest in power. Do you know any good books or website I can read more on the Kru People. It's interesting to know that they love the sea because every since I was a little kid I would always wonder why I'm so attach to the ocean still till this day as a grown man lol
U forgot about mande speaking people which are mende, mandingos, vai etc.good history. U have mande speaking people all over west depending on how they called them in different countries .that another influence of richest, biggest and one of most influence empire in history of Africa.
If that's the poorest country in Africa I can tell you it looks a whole lot better than some of the poor areas in the United States. I'm American I live in the U.S.
What Tribes is Monrovia Liberia? What kinda question is that so you are asking? Well you already know Monrovia is the Capital City for Liberia. And Liberia is a Country in West Coast of Africa. Thanks now you know Liberia is a beautiful Country and Monrovia is the Capital City for Liberia. Good luck it's very good to learn your own Nation history Liberia Monrovia past, present, and future, History. THANKS!
Why dont you diligently list the tribes missing as the producer requested instead of simply complaining and telling the world about your feelings. No one benefits from that. At least the maker of the video did something good. You should do your part.
I’m sorry if this is an offensive slur but I watched a movie and they kept referring to a group of people as “doggo” is it a tribe which is not mentioned.
I'm sorry, but nobody worships ghostface. The images could stand to be altered. The "ancestral worship," among other parts, features an image of someone in the mask from the Scream movies.
