Nina - Namibia

Episode Summary

This week, we head to the Atlantic coastline of South-West Africa as Fin talks to Nina about one of her beloved home nations, Namibia. How did World War I complicate the country's existence as a German colony? How does a national identity form in a country with no majority ethnic group and nine official languages? How might a booming economy not necessarily be good news for a country's citizens? This episode contains a surprising number of cow-based anecdotes and references!
