Howdy Madlads! After a weeklong hiatus (and another two weeks to make this video) I am finally back with a video all about South Africa and its 11 official languages! Today you will learn how South Africa got to this stage, what these languages are, and what challenges appear as a result.

I'm planning on doing several videos on Africa in the near future. I've kinda burnt out on European topics now, and Africa is often overlooked on channels similar to this, so I want to fill this gap of knowledge on the internet.

There were some great sources I used for this video, I highly recommend you check them out!
