Actually Venezuelans are closer culturally to Dominican republic, as Colombians actually come from Galicia and the Basque county instead of The Canaries. Also Before the consolidation of the modern states some could say that the colombian llano was closer to venezuela than Nueva granada itself. The andes mountains seperating venezuela from the most of the colombian population made us pretty distinct. This is why the Arepa was introduced to colombia throught the llanos, as a large part of the colombian llanos used to be venezuelan territory. The language of the Cumangoto tribes people which named the arepa are concentrated in modern day venezuela And the Llano border in colombia

The Simon Bolivar Youth Orchestra under Gustavo Dudamel and José Antonio Abreu was one of the best in the world before they changed it to be an actual symphony orchestra, and I know that they tried to replicate this kind of system in various European countries. Musicians from the formal SBYO now play in some of the best orchestras in the world (like for example Edicson Ruiz who's been a member of the Berlin Philharmonic for over 15 years). A lot of the young musicians also participated in the anti government protests in 2017, where at least one of them got killed and quite a few were imprisoned.

As a Colombian, Venezuela is a country that is just so insanely close and familiar to us, its kind of hard to imagine life without them. Obviously, people can get pretty mean on both sides a lot of the time, but I would argue that Venezuela is so fundamental to Colombian culture (and vice versa) that our national identities wouldn't even exist as we know them without each other. We're two of the culturally closest countries in the world, if we're being honest.

Bars and restaurants filed with Russian, Chinese and Turkish tourist, going to $100 ticket baseball games and parting like crazy So weird than during the same time murder and violence skyrocketed in so many other latam countries.

I’ve been following this channel from the very beginning when episodes were just 10 min packed with info and finally the day has come where I get to watch my home country…I had the hope that by the time this episode was to be aired the Venezuelan dictatorship was going to be part of recent history but sadly it’s still part of our reality! I hope very soon barbs makes an update on this episode explaining the fall of the regime and the wonderful things a free Venezuela can offer to the rest of the world

A major point that was missed in the discussion on El Essequibo is the fact that the largest oil reserve in the world was recently discovered off of its coast. This has ignited territorial claims over who gets to own the oil fields.
@xMUNECAx3 ай бұрын
Which in my opinion is a ridiculously greedy and disgusting claim on Venezuela’s end. They don’t even know how to manage the copious amounts they already have and are greedy and corrupt. Attempting to take more than half of Guyana’s land and its oil won’t fix ANY of Venezuela’s problems and I’m very happy Guyana has the support of Brazil and USA to keep Venezuela in check. Side note: the PEOPLE of Venezuela don’t care about this issue, they are more focused on social and economic issues, not many people voted to take the land and the results of their referendum were exaggerated and falsified.

Actually Venezuelans are closer culturally to Dominican republic, as Colombians actually come from Galicia and the Basque county instead of The Canaries. Also Before the consolidation of the modern states some could say that the colombian llano was closer to venezuela than Nueva granada itself. The andes mountains seperating venezuela from the most of the colombian population made us pretty distinct. This is why the Arepa was introduced to colombia throught the llanos, as a large part of the colombian llanos used to be venezuelan territory. The language of the Cumangoto tribes people which named the arepa are concentrated in modern day venezuela And the Llano border in colombia
@jorgeeduardodussanvillanue466 ай бұрын
Yeah the origin of the name is from the Cumanagoto language but it's widely accepted that the arepa was consumed by a lot of amerindian tribes long before the Conquista (with little differences from tribe to tribe). It wasn't introduced from Venezuela to Colombia, it was already there before the countries even existed.

We had a lot of colombians moving over to Venezuela because of FARC, they returned with a new found love for arepas and now are claiming it for themselves, we invented it, and Polar commercialized the first industrial corn flour to make them, before that is was a whole ordeal, and it tasted different, the colombians have Arepa de Choclo, that is the Same as a "Cachapa", and that's the original arepa.
@andres_see6 ай бұрын
Both countries didn't exist when they were first prepared in what today is Colombia (3,000 years ago) and Venezuela (2,800 years ago). That's why I've always thought that arepa wars are useless.
@roymarron76226 ай бұрын
@andres_see No because what the indigenous people of the area made didn't resemble the consistency or flavor of the modern arepa, this is a Venezuelan invention by Empresas Polar, the first company to commercially sell processed corn flour reducing the ridiculous amount of time it took before to make them, this changed the flavor profile of the dish completely. Try Cachapa and that's the old arepa.
@otashigo4 ай бұрын
That's so wrong on so many levels, I'm Colombian and my grandmother used to make arepas by grinding the corn kernels way before polar was even founded and cachapas are not the original arepas, they are made with sweet corn, look up arepa santandereana, that's what original arepas are supossed to look like.

Looking at your profile picture I can assure your grandma wans't even born before 1954, when arina pan was patented. So think what you want, that doesn't change fact.

I'm Spanish and I confirm that the relationship between Canary Islands and Venezuela is *strong* . A Venezuelan came once for the first time to El Hierro (the South-Westest island) and local people asked her _who are you related to?_ Yes: having relatives in the other side of the Atlantic is not that unusual there. Not at all. And I ate Canarian arepas, and I love the _tequeños_ I bought in the supermarket in El Hierro 😋 I guess you get the idea 👈
