When I played clash of clans several years ago, I noticed some of the clans we faced had Chinese names but were based in Djibouti. I learnt they must be bored Chinese soldiers stationed in Djibouti.

Imagine being in a country as a soldier deployed overseas and end up seeing Russians,Chinese,Americans,French. Must be a weird sight to behold

Everyone wants a piece of that Djibouti

0:00: 🌍 Djibouti's strategic location makes it a sought after place for military bases. 3:21: 💣 The US built a military base in Djibouti, strategically located next to Somalia and Yemen, to combat terrorism and secure trade routes in the region. 7:16: 📺 The video discusses the presence of various countries in Djibouti and the expansion of the Lumineer facility. 10:30: 🌍 Djibouti benefits from hosting foreign military bases and maintains an independent negotiating strategy with large estates. 13:06: 💰 China's infrastructure investments in Africa are driven by economic interests, particularly in accessing oil and growing trade. Recap by Tammy AI

Wildest place to be for the first five minutes of ww3 while the non NATO bases still exist.

The New York Times said that we will not going to last for two weeks in 1977. 45 years later we are still here. As a Djiboutian i am proud of my nation.

3:56 you might want to check your map of Somalia.

As a Djiboutian Since our independence on 27 June 1977 the Horn of Africa was already in turbulence due to the conflict that was happening like the Eritrean War of Independence (1961-1991), Ogaden War (1977-78), Ethiopian Civil War (1974-1991), Somali Civil War (1978-now), Eritrean-Ethiopian War (1998-2000) and our own Civil War (1991-1994) and also other battles/wars happening now. Djibouti accommodated migrants and refugees with the help of UN and WFP because of wars and famine. The French Forces remained present in Djibouti do to a provisional protocol of June 1977 laying down the conditions for the stationing of French forces, constituting a defense agreement because of the unstability of the region. There are two main linguistic and ethnic groups are the Somalis and Afars. Although most Djiboutians are Somali-speaking, national identity is fairly cohesive, being rooted in a common historical background.

Djibouti is so small and tight - how do they fit all those bases in there?

I'm convinced the local population will become multiracial supersoldiers over time 😂

I have never seen a better place for world of tanks for sponsorship 😂

The skies above Djibouti sound like they could be tense

The other countries all have a waiting list because France has 3 bases. Just let someone else have one.

China also uses the Belt and Road initiative (e.g. Harbour and railline) as a way to get more leverege in countries. When payments can't be made for the expensive construction work, China often get's to lease them for several decades which gives the easy access to strategic infastructure and a monopoly on trade within a different country to project their own interests

it truely is the pre-game lobby of superpowers and countries in general

It’s self protection not puzzle. If you have a foothold of 10 nations in one place the status quo will forever be maintained.

Love your videos!

Good video only thing you missed I feel is a weird cut at 2:35. It’s just a bit off by the sound.

“I might need to see Djibouti.”

Imagine that if a country wanted to invade Djibouti, it would usher in the United States, China, France, Germany, Japan resisting together 😂😂😄

That's the new Casablanca. "Here's Looking At You, Kid "

200 million for all those bases doesn’t sound a lot tho

Imagine another country tries to invade Djibouti

They all want some of Djibooty

3:56 you used the borders of somaliland not somalia

0:56 Babel man deeb 😂😂😂

Me and my friend's favorite country we found on the globe

In 3:26 you highlighted Somaliland, an autonomous region within the country of Somalia (which both border the Ethiopian Somali Region to add more confusion)

Landing on the moon vs base in djibouti

How come one nation has welcomed so many military bases while other nations thoroughly dislike them?

Fun fact: When China built its military base here, America complained. Can you imagine if Russia got a base too.

0:51 uhh You have Somaliland on that map not Somalia.

i want that djibouti

2:05 that is the kenyan president

Modern Peking? Maybe a 55 days at djibout sequel can happen.

"One of the most strategic locations on the planet" What does this mean? Do you mean strategically valuable, or useful, or contested, or widely important?

Because it looks good and everyone wants a piece of that cake ahahahah😂

I’m actually from Spain, Grenada but lived here in southern cali since I was like 5 I didn’t even know spain was such a big geopolitical role tf😂😂

wtf is up with the audio?!

These Nations are doing Miniscule amount of trolling

Everybody wants a piece of *Djibouti* ....sorry had to do that

People just heard “Booty” and wanted it bad.

3:57 thats somaliland tho, a breakaway state of somalia, not the whole country of somalia

AYO OBF WHAT YOU MEAN BY THAT 🤨

So.. whenever WW3 breaks out will they just have a chill moment or would they try to attack the Chinese base and the potential Russian base? As it's just too small to even bother with IMO

Because everyone wants Jabooty..... Ok, I'll see myself out.

Everyone want to get into that Djibouti 😂

I already knew you were talking about dabooty before I clicked

Why? Protection. From whom?. well son grab a chair.

Wow

At 3:55 you show the country Somaliland wich is not internationally recognized. The country Somalia has the full horn.

Within 2 days!

I was deployed to the US Military Base there in 2021 and am going back this November (2024). I guess you could say that I can’t stay out of Djibouti😁

Djibouti doesn’t even belong to the nationals anymore lol.

George W Bush is not a “junior”. Interestingly though, Obama is a “junior”.

Sheikh Djibouti

SO I guess Djibouti need to thank Somalia pirates

But if a major conflict were to break out between these countries they're going to be fucked.

🎉

Shake shake Djibouti

You higlighted Somaliland and said it was Somalia at 3:26

To correct you Djibouti isn't fully stable it is led by a dictator who is of Somali Ethnicty and his regime marginalizes the afari ethnic ppl in Djibouti who are 30%+ and they are in insurgency but until now the regime lasted because France supports it against all opposing movements be it political or insurgents.

Why is Somalia only highlighted as Somaliland? And they're unstable???? I thought Somaliland is just the "good part" of the Horn of Africa compares to Somalia itself

More like a cheeseboard.

WHAT IS THIS TITLE

Djibouti it says it in the name

FIRST! - love your work! keep it going!

by somalia... you mean somaliland ? this area of somalia is named somaliland

What if the horn of Africa was turned into a NO-MAN LANDS ZONE for every country to excersise their military might, and Djibouti was the starting point.

USA is in a pay per people crisis(not a bad,though)...

hmm ok

Djibouti Is a Small county But Everyone still want a piece of Djibouti

Djibouti To Addis Abeba Belong People Living In Djibouti

😂why is he not mentioning Djibouti is somali french country

Adal Sultanate Galla Shewa Gura Sultanate Is Belong Djibouti

Hey Africa, I love Djbouti 😂😂😂

Yourboot-

When did globalism start? Let's get some thoughts!

57,394th viewer of this video!

Djibouti is pronounced Ja' Booty

One day these colonial borders will be erased and that tiny french historic remnant will be devided to Anfar and Somali nations.

Djibouti is getting played. They should be making 2 Billion minimum from the rent. And make every country build one mega project each.

dj

Djibouti Is Colonies Italian French British Russia Germani Holland Belgium Rome Portuguese Greek Spain They Are Colonies Djibouti Ethiopia Is One Country Back To History

This sounds like it should be good for Djibouti, but i rather doubt that it really is. Where is all that foreign money going when it arrives? Is it being used to develop infrastructure, the economy, health, nutrition? Or, is it simply corrupting the government.

2:50 George Bush Junior? Really?! George Bush JUNIOR!? Yeah, this instantly made me turn off the video. A history and information channel that can't get a former US President's name right is a no-no. It's George W. Bush. And if you're wondering, he was kind of a meh President.

You lost all credibility, that’s not even the map of Somalia 😂 Google the map moran Somalia is the entire coast

Trick question: What's the capitol of Djibouti??? ..... Djibouti!!!!!! (Nice video btw. I was in high school so interested in Djibouti, and other small countries like it. So, so cool you made a vi about this country most people don't care about - or even know exists)

why did you show somaliland as somalia? We are not the same nation

Listening Djibouti Beling Ethiopia People Battle Adwa Is Somalis Issas Eritrea Belong Djibouti Back To History

3:22 the country that is highlighted is somaliland and it is safe much safer than somalia and djbouti since djbouti has conflict between issa and afar tribes

That’s Somalis oil for the world, buy a peace

U.S, France, Italy and Japan gave Djibouti money and got military bases, China was the only country willing to invest in the country and build it grounds up, this is why many African countries are drifting towards China and abandoning the west

Stop Lying You Don’t Now Nothing

People Eritrea Amhara Tiger They Are From Jamaica Ok Oromo Danakilo From. Americaaa 😮Caribbean

Djibouti was part of the Ethiopian empire.

That title hahahahaha
