Hey everybody, welcome back to flag fan Friday. Hope you like the eSwatini episode we're gonna put my liners back in
-
Yeah, you know 20 because the name is swathi knee is actually not a new name
-
It's literally what the people of the country have been calling the country ever since day one the eponymous with the former king and Swati
-
The second but I wasn't until recently that they decided to change the official English
-
name into is martini one reason why is because it was the fiftieth anniversary of their
-
Independence and it was kind of a unilateral decision from the king and the Queen but yeah
-
It's gonna take a while for our brains to get accustomed to it
-
Anyway, there's also the part where I cover some of the small stuff that didn't make it into the episode for one
-
I wanted to talk about the rail network
-
It actually trans sex the country both north and south going into both South Africa and Mozambique
-
I also wanted to talk about the lobola or
-
bridewealth which is kind of like the Swazi equivalent to a
-
Dowry, usually it's paid in cattle towards the bride's family when she gets married Nelson
-
Mandela was actually paid lobola
-
When his daughter married his Swasey Prince and there's a few other things I coulda mentioned but we got to keep this gravy train rolling
-
So without further ado
-
I
-
Swat tini for the first time we broke the alphabetical rule
-
I figured it would probably happen at some point before we finished all the episodes but enough on that the flag the flag is a
-
banner featuring a
-
horizontal tricolour of two blue bands on top and bottom to thinner yellow bands bordering the blue ones and a big red band in the
-
Center in the center of the flag lies the traditional black and white Moony shield covering two Spears and a staff
-
decorated with feather tassels called enjoyable the blue stands for peace and stability the yellow stands for the mineral resources and the red stands for
-
The struggles of the nation and that definition is a little vague
-
I don't want to misinterpret it and say it stands for the blood of those before the country like so many other Flags so sorry
-
No animation this week the shield plays a reminder to the population of their nation's military
-
traditions and protection from the nation's enemies
-
It is called black and white not just because of the colors of the oxide that the shields are made of but also to symbolize
-
The unity of the black and white people that live peacefully in the country
-
Keep in mind the country also has a royal standard flag, but they use for the royal family. It features the lion way back
-
Yeehaw they used another flag with the shield and they also under the British as a protectorate. Yeah
-
So anyway, the coat-of-arms the coat-of-arms is pretty self-explanatory
-
The image depicts the same Muni shield and weaponry as the flag on a blue shield
-
Adorned with a crown of feathers typically worn at the in koala ceremony on the sides are the lion and elephant
-
Representing the king or mon yama and the queen elephant mother or that Indo?
-
Vacati at the bottom on a banner lies the model te kapa which means we are the fortress
-
I think I pronounced that right si acaba. Is that
-
It's kind of similar to Zulu right your cues make the clicking sound by the way
-
If that word when Yama sounds a little similar to you
-
That's because it is very similar to the Zulu word for Lion in one yama which is song like a billion times in the Lion
-
King song come on, you know the song sing with me
-
Anyway, so yeah that is just about that. So, you know what time it is
