The United States weren't real and instead it was all a land called "Spanish French-Guinea".
Everyone spoke Mandarin, for some reason.

“One-girl chorus line. Amazing what a mirror can do for one girl... Showing off her finery is Kouvate Kankow of the African Ballet; which opens at the Royal Alexandra tonight. Dancers come from the republic of Guinea; most of them speak French.”
Photographed by Douglas Glynn.
The Toronto Star. 07 September 1965.

Please reblog for a bigger sample size!
If you have any fun fact about Guinea, please tell us and I'll reblog it!
Be respectful in your comments. You can criticize a government without offending its people.
*Despite the name, Guinea Pigs have no relation to Guinea, the country or the region, as they originate from South America.

Each morning as the little ones scuttle out of the tree hole and off to school, she stands on the tree, waving a happy claw and promising to be there upon their return home.
Tree Hole Crab (Globonautes macropus)
Liberia, Guinea, Sierra Leone
Status: Endangered
Threats: Deforestation, habitat loss
-----
This smiling and waving crab just seemed like a page from a children’s book. I don’t actually know what baby Globonautes do in real life, but I suppose in this picture book they scuttle home happily to their tree hole home after an exciting day in the West African rainforest.

AEW Has A Major Platform For Me To Express Myself And Show People My Culture
Tumblr media
Queen Aminata is proud to be the first African born woman to be signed to a big wrestling promotion.
After working a plethora of matches for the promotion over the years, Queen Aminata officially inked a deal with AEW in February 2024. Aminata has capitalized on the momentum quickly, as she is set to face Billie Starkz in a match for the new ROH Women's World TV Championship at ROH Supercard Of Honor in April.
Speaking to the AEW Unrestricted podcast for a new interview, Aminata reflected on being the first African-born woman to ever sign a contract with a major wrestling promotion.
"Coming from Guinea, I wouldn’t say there’s nothing special about it but there’s so much more because people from here don’t know Guinea. They know Africa, but it’s like, Africa, you know what I mean? I just wanted to give them something that they don’t know, tell them a story without talking to them that is showing them, hey this is where I’m from, but this is what you get. Especially with being signed, this is a bigger company that has a major platform for me, so what better way for me to just express myself and show people my culture, my accent, and how proud I am to walk in there with my cape. It’s funny sometimes because some fans will be like, ‘Oh my god, that’s just a fake accent, are you really from Africa?’ I’m like, ‘Yes honey, I was born and raised in Africa. I still go back.’ I just had bigger dreams than I could realize in Africa, so I just took a chance on myself and I gave it my all. I feel like I have two homes now, I have the USA and I have Africa. I’m happy to be here, at the same time I miss home. I’m so thankful for everything I’m building here and I know there is many more to come."
