Kameruun - E Ngel Laawol

Winner of the week: 🥇2

Cameroon is a country in Central Africa. It borders Nigeria, Chad, the Central African Republic, the Republic of Congo, Gabon, and Equatorial Guinea. The country has a coastline on the Atlantic Ocean in the southwest. The largest cities are the capital, Yaoundé, and the port city of Douala.

Cameroon is governed by an authoritarian regime, and freedom of expression is severely restricted. Corruption and human rights violations are widespread, with torture and arbitrary arrests occurring regularly.

On January 1, 1960, French Cameroon gained independence following a referendum and the expiration of the UN mandate and renamed itself the Republic of Cameroon. In December 1960, the 15th United Nations General Assembly decided that the trust territories should also be granted independence. This could be achieved through full independence, free association with an already independent state, or integration into an independent state. The British trustees denied their trust territories the first option—full independence. The north of the British Mandate trust territory therefore voted in a referendum to join Nigeria, while the southern part opted for federation with the Republic of Cameroon. Independence and simultaneous annexation took place on October 1, 1961. The state thus formed was called the Federative Republic of Cameroon. This is the reason why two official languages, French and English, are now recognized in Cameroon.

The United States of America is a democratic, federal republic in North America and, with some islands, in Oceania. It consists of 50 states, the capital Washington, D.C., which is its own federal district, as well as five major territories and nine island territories.

The 48 contiguous states, the so-called Lower 48, together with Alaska, from which they are separated by Canadian territory, form the Continental United States. The state of Hawaii and some smaller outlying areas are located in the Pacific and Caribbean. The country has a very high geographical and climatic diversity with a large variety of animal and plant species.

The United States of America is the third largest country in the world both in terms of area and population. Its area of ​​9.83 million square kilometers is exceeded only by Russia and Canada and its population of more than 334 million inhabitants is exceeded only by India and China. The most populous city in the USA is New York City, a global metropolis and one of the most important cultural, media, economic, trade and financial centers in the world. Important metropolitan areas are Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Philadelphia, Washington, Miami, Atlanta, Boston and San Francisco, each with over 5 million inhabitants. The degree of urbanization is 83 percent. A well-known national myth is that the United States is one of the most multicultural countries in the world; However, empirical studies show that the United States performs only averagely in global comparisons of ethnic and cultural diversity.

On July 4, 1776, delegates from the 13 colonies adopted the Declaration of Independence of the United States and thus the founding of the USA. The American War of Independence, which ended with the recognition of independence in the Peace of Paris (1783), was the first successful war of independence against a European colonial power. The current constitution was adopted on September 17, 1787. 27 additional articles were added. The first ten amendments, collectively called the Bill of Rights, were ratified in 1791 and guarantee a variety of unalienable rights.

Driven by the doctrine of Manifest Destiny, the United States expanded its territory from the Atlantic to the Pacific throughout the 19th century. This included the violent expulsion of indigenous Indian tribes, the acquisition of new territories, etc. in the Mexican-American War and the founding of new states. The American Civil War led to the end of slavery in the United States in 1865 and to the fact that it finally embarked on the path to becoming an industrial state. By the end of the 19th century, the United States was the preeminent power in the Americas, and its economy had become the largest of the time.

Россия (Rossiya) - Мы на пути (My Na Puti)

Winner of the month: 🏆Aug'25
Winner of the week: 🥇13

Russia is a federal state in Eastern Europe and Northern Asia, with the exclave of Kaliningrad in Central Europe. In terms of area, Russia is the largest country in the world at around 17 million square kilometers and covers around a ninth of the earth's land mass. With 144.5 million inhabitants (2019), it is the ninth most populous country and is also one of the least populated.

The European part of the national territory is significantly more densely populated than the Asian part, which is over three times as large: around 77% of the population (110 million inhabitants) lives west of the Urals. The capital Moscow is one of the largest cities and metropolitan regions in the world. The second most important center is Saint Petersburg, which was the capital from 1712 to 1918 and is now primarily an important cultural center. The next largest cities with millions of inhabitants are Novosibirsk, Yekaterinburg, Kazan and Nizhny Novgorod. In total, there are 15 megacities and almost 70 agglomerations with over 500,000 inhabitants in Russia.

The federal structure of Russia consists of eight federal districts and 83 federal subjects. Russia is a multi-ethnic country with over 100 ethnic groups, with ethnic Russians making up almost 80% of the population. Russia is now an emerging country in the upper middle income sector. After recovering from the post-communist transformation crisis of the 1990s, the country became what is now the eleventh largest economy in the world and fourth largest in terms of purchasing power parity, just ahead of Germany. Its raw material reserves are probably the largest in the world at around 20 to 30%, with significant deposits of primary energy sources - especially natural gas. Russia has been subject to a steady decline in economic, demographic and military performance since the mid-1980s, when it was still part of the Soviet Union. According to the SIPRI Institute, it has the largest number of nuclear warheads of any country at 4,489, of which only 1,674 are ready for use while the rest are in storage.

Russia has been a permanent member of the UN Security Council since 1946 and is also a member of the WTO, OSCE, APEC and the SCO, as well as a leading member of the regional organizations CIS, CSTO and EAEU.

The Russian Federation is the “continuor state” of the Soviet Union in international organizations. The Soviet federal state was preceded by the Russian Empire, the Tsardom of Russia and originally the Grand Duchy of Moscow, a sub-principality of the former East Slavic Empire of Kievan Rus. The Cold War ended around 1990, and Russia became a little more democratic and moved slightly closer to the West. The constitution at the time envisaged a semi-presidential democracy for Russia, but according to democracy indices, the constitutional reality today corresponds to that of an autocracy, or a “super-presidential rule” or post-democracy. Corruption and human rights violations are widespread.

Russia's share of global gross domestic product has fallen from 4 to 2.85% (2022) since the sanctions began in 2014 as a result of the annexation of Crimea and intensified with the attack on Ukraine in 2022. Especially since the attack on the neighboring country, economic and political relations with the West have been very strained.

Russia is predominantly viewed as an autocracy. In political science and Eastern European studies there is a debate as to whether it is now an increasingly totalitarian dictatorship or whether it is already a fascist regime due to domestic political tightening and the attack on Ukraine (fascism discussion).

The People's Republic of China is a state in East Asia. With more than 1.4 billion inhabitants (2020), China is the second most populous country in the world after India and the third largest country in terms of total area. According to its socialist constitution, the People's Republic of China is "under the democratic dictatorship of the people", but has been from the beginning Governed throughout by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in an authoritarian to totalitarian manner. To this day she is accused of serious human rights violations.

Since 2016, the World Bank has classified the country as one of the states with an income level in the upper middle range. On average, China's economic power grew by 8.9% annually from 2000 to 2019. In addition to the doubling of China's share of world trade, the gross domestic product increased sixfold during this time, so that by the end of that period China had grown into the second largest economy in the world. However, according to observers, since the "Outstanding Leader" Xi Jinping came to power in 2012, the People's Republic has again taken steps backwards in social and economic freedom and has become increasingly ideologically and internationally aggressive.

The People's Republic of China is the world's largest exporter, the second largest importer, the country with the largest industrial production, the second highest spending on research and development, the second largest total national wealth, the largest standing army and the second largest defense budget and, depending on the source, is considered an emerging or already established country Superpower of the 21st century alongside the United States.

The People's Republic of China is one of the official nuclear powers and, as one of the five official victors of the Second World War, is a permanent member of the World Security Council and a member of the World Trade Organization, World Bank, APEC, BRICS, UNESCO, Interpol and G20, among others.

República Argentina - Vamos Caminando

Winner of the month: 🏆Jun'25
Winner of the week: 🥇38

Argentina is a republic in southern South America. It borders Chile to the south and west, Bolivia to the north, Paraguay and Brazil to the northeast, Uruguay to the east, and the Atlantic Ocean to the southeast.

The country's name is derived from the Latin word for silver – argentum – and dates back to the Spanish colonial period, when people hoped to find precious metals there. Until its independence in 1816, it was part of the Spanish colonial empire. Politically, Argentina is a presidential federal republic in which the individual provinces have extensive powers. According to the Argentine Constitution, in addition to República Argentina, Provincias Unidas del Río de la Plata and Confederación Argentina are considered official names for Argentina.

With an area of ​​almost 2.8 million km², Argentina is the eighth-largest country in the world and the second-largest in South America and the fourth-largest in the Americas. Due to its large north-south extension, the country is located in several climate and vegetation zones. In terms of population, with approximately 45 million inhabitants, it is the third-largest in South America (after Brazil and Colombia) and the fifth-largest in the Americas. About a third of the population is concentrated in the metropolitan area of ​​the capital, Buenos Aires, which is considered an important cultural center of the Americas and where, among other things, Argentine tango originated. Other urban centers are the cities of Córdoba, Rosario, Mar del Plata, and Mendoza. Large parts of the dry and cold south, in contrast, are very sparsely populated.

Until around 1950, Argentina was one of the richest countries in the world. Traditionally, agriculture, livestock farming and raw material extraction played a major role in the economy, although today the service sector accounts for the largest share of GDP at around 60%.

Politically and culturally, the country was strongly influenced by immigration from Europe, especially Italy and Spain, until the mid-20th century. The most important stages since then have been Peronism (1946–1955; 1973–1976), several military dictatorships (particularly from 1976 to 1983), redemocratization (after 1983), and neoliberalism (1990s), up to the Argentine crisis (2001–2005) and the subsequent consolidation.

Република Србија (Republika Srbija) - Хајдемо заједно (Zajedno Idemo)

Serbia is a landlocked country in Southeastern and Central Europe. Serbia is located in the center of the Balkan Peninsula and borders Hungary to the north, Romania and Bulgaria to the east, North Macedonia and Albania and Kosovo to the south, Montenegro to the southwest, and Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia to the west.

With a population of just over 6.7 million, Serbia ranks 22nd among European countries. The country's capital and metropolis is Belgrade; other major cities are Novi Sad, Niš, Kragujevac, and Subotica. Over 80 percent of the population are Serbs, with larger groups of Magyars, Roma, and Bosniaks also living there.

Serbia's recent history is shaped by its role as the largest constituent state of Yugoslavia. Since the final breakup of Yugoslavia in 2006, it has also been the "sole legal successor" to the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, founded in 1992 (2003–2006 as the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro).

Serbia is a member of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation (BSEC) and the Central European Free Trade Agreement (CEFTA), and maintains other free trade agreements. The country's economic performance declined sharply as a result of the Yugoslav Wars; it recovered somewhat between 2003 and 2008.[9] After achieving important short-term successes in the EU accession process (including the entry into force of an interim agreement for trade facilitation with the EU and the abolition of visa requirements for Serbian citizens), Serbia submitted its candidacy for membership of the European Union on December 22, 2009, and was granted candidate country status on March 1, 2012.

الجمهورية اليمنية (al-Dschumhūriyya al-Yamaniyya) - نبتسم (Nahn Namdi Ma'an)

Yemen is a country in the Middle East, in the south of the Arabian Peninsula. Yemen borders Saudi Arabia to the north, Oman to the east, the Gulf of Aden and the Arabian Sea to the south, and the Red Sea to the west. The states of Djibouti and Eritrea are located across the Red Sea, about 20 and 30 kilometers apart, respectively. Yemen also includes the Socotra archipelago and numerous smaller islands in the Bab al-Mandab in the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea. However, the state of Yemen has collapsed due to the civil war; several de facto states currently exist on the former territory described above.

In 1990, the two former states, the Yemeni Arab Republic (JAR, "North Yemen"; capital: Sanaa) and the People's Democratic Republic of Yemen (DPJ, "South Yemen", capital: Aden), united to form the current state. A civil war has raged since 2013. In this conflict, the Houthi militias succeeded in capturing the capital, Sanaa, and large parts of the country. On March 25, 2015, Saudi Arabia, with the military cooperation of eight other states (the Islamic Military Coalition), launched a military intervention called Operation Decisive Storm to support the central government under President Hadi and Prime Minister Khalid Bahah. This massively escalated the conflict and is considered a proxy war between Saudi Arabia and the Islamic Republic of Iran. As of April 1, 2022, 4.3 million people are internally displaced due to the war in the country. Seventy percent of the population depends on international aid for survival.

The Netherlands are one of the four autonomous countries of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. The country, which lies largely in northern Western Europe, is bordered by the North Sea to the north and west, Belgium to the south and Germany to the east. The European part of the Netherlands covers 41,543 square kilometers and has 17,947,684 inhabitants (January 1, 2024). The capital of the Netherlands is Amsterdam, the seat of government and parliament is The Hague. The official national color is orange.

In addition to the twelve provinces of the European part, the territory of the Netherlands includes the Caribbean islands of Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba (including their respective subsidiary islands), which are special municipalities of the country. Other Dutch Caribbean territories are not part of the country of the Netherlands, but are autonomous countries in the Kingdom of the Netherlands. These are the countries of Aruba, Curaçao and Sint Maarten.

After belonging to the Middle Kingdom, Eastern Francia and the Holy Roman Empire, the year 1581 with the Plakkaat van Verlatinghe is considered the birth of the United Netherlands, which was finally recognized in 1648 with the Peace of Münster. The Netherlands became a trading, colonial and maritime power. The 17th century is described as the Golden Age. During this period, the Netherlands was the “laboratory of capitalism” and developed institutions and technologies such as joint stock companies, stock exchange trading and cashless payments. “The Dutch can claim, more than most other nations, to have invented globalization” (Christoph Driessen). The constitution of the Netherlands dates back to the time of the Congress of Vienna in 1814/1815.

Together with Belgium and Luxembourg, the Netherlands forms the Benelux Union. The Netherlands is a founding member of the Montanunion in 1951, from which several successors and the European Union (EU) developed in 1992.

Saudi Arabia is an absolute monarchy in the Near East. It is located on the Arabian Peninsula and borders on its neighboring states (see “National Border” section below), the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf. The country has existed within its current borders since 1932. The country's capital and largest city is Riyadh, the second largest is the port city of Jeddah.

Two of Islam's three holiest sites, the Kaaba in Mecca and the Prophet's Mosque in Medina, are in Saudi Arabia. Islam of the Hanbali school of law in the special form of Wahhabism is the state religion in Saudi Arabia. The public image of religion in the country is fundamentalist and there is a conservative interpretation of Islamic law. Saudi Arabia supports and finances the spread of Islamist neo-fundamentalism. The views of the terrorist organization Islamic State were strongly influenced by the Saudi Arabian interpretation of Islam, of which they are a particularly violent continuation.

In 1992, absolutism was enshrined as a form of government in the basic order. To this day, the country is governed by authoritarian rule and there is no freedom of expression. Serious human rights violations occur every day in Saudi Arabia; Punishments such as amputation, stoning, flogging and the death penalty are regularly carried out, the latter also for homosexuality (see also: Homosexuality in Saudi Arabia). Although social restrictions have been somewhat reduced since Mohammed bin Salman took over the reins of government, the country is still one of the lowest places in the world when it comes to women's rights, according to the Global Gender Gap Report.

Through its army, Saudi Arabia is the largest military power in the Middle East. Its military intervention in Yemen since 2015 is considered destabilizing and a contributing factor to the humanitarian catastrophe there. Despite the various criticisms of domestic and foreign policy, most governments in the Western world maintain good relations with Saudi Arabia because their countries are dependent on its oil. Saudi Arabia is one of the richest countries in the world thanks to its oil exports; In terms of gross domestic product per capita (adjusted for purchasing power), it was ranked 29th worldwide in 2021. The United Nations Development Program ranks Saudi Arabia as one of the countries with very high levels of human development.

France is a democratic, intercontinental unitary state in Western Europe with overseas territories. Its territory is located on all continents except Asia.

Metropolitan France, i.e. the European part of the national territory, extends from the Mediterranean to the English Channel and the North Sea and from the Rhine to the Atlantic Ocean. Its mainland is called a hexagon because of its shape. France is the largest country in terms of area and the second largest country in terms of population (behind Germany) in the European Union. It comprises the third largest territory in Europe (after Russia and Ukraine). Paris is the capital and, as an agglomeration with the municipal association Métropole du Grand Paris and the surrounding areas of the Île-de-France region, the largest metropolitan area in the country, ahead of Lyon, Marseille-Aix-en-Provence, Lille and Toulouse.

Emerging from the western part of the Frankish Empire, France expanded its cultural and military influence in Europe during the Middle Ages, mostly in rivalry with the Kingdom of England and the Holy Roman Empire, until France finally achieved a European leadership role in the 17th and 18th centuries held supremacy.

The political and cultural impact was significant: the court of Louis Development towards democracy interrupted by setbacks.

France twice built a colonial empire overseas. The first included, among other things: large parts of North America and was largely lost in the Seven Years' War in the mid-18th century; the second, centered in Africa, was the second largest in the world in the 19th and early 20th centuries. In the 21st century, France and Germany are seen as the driving force of European integration.

The French Republic is declared in its constitution to be indivisible, secular, democratic and social. Its principle is: “Government of the people, by the people and for the people.” The United Nations Development Program ranks France among the countries with very high levels of human development. In terms of nominal gross domestic product, it is the seventh largest economy in the world. The standard of living, level of education and life expectancy are considered high. As the most visited country in the world, France receives around 83 million foreign tourists per year.

The French armed forces are among the seven strongest in the world and were the third strongest in NATO in 2023, and the fifth strongest in 2024 after the USA, Great Britain, Turkey and Italy. The country is the only nuclear power in the European Union, one of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council and in 2010 had the third highest number of nuclear weapons in the world. It is a founding member of the European Union and the United Nations, a member of the Francophonie, the G7, the G20 , NATO, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the Latin Union.

Africa is one of Earth's continents. Its area of ​​30.2 million km² corresponds to approximately 20% of the planet's total land area, and it has a population of approximately 1.4 billion people (2022). This makes it the second-largest continent after Asia, both in terms of area and population. Almost all African states are members of the United Nations and the African Union. The continent is predominantly rural and characterized by high birth rates, which are declining due to modernization. Due to the sharp increase in urbanization since around 1950, more and more Africans live in urban areas. Some African cities are among the world's largest metropolitan areas, including Cairo, Lagos, Kinshasa, Johannesburg, Luanda, and Alexandria.

According to the "Out of Africa Theory," Africa is considered the "cradle of humanity," where the development into anatomically modern humans (Homo sapiens) took place through hominization. One of humanity's earliest advanced civilizations developed in ancient Egypt. Over the millennia, various "great empires" emerged on the continent, such as the Abyssinian Empire. The slave trade with the African empires from the 16th century onwards and the subsequent colonization by European states ("Scramble for Africa") led to a somewhat sketchy territorial division. This was adopted by many newly formed African states during the decolonization process from the mid-20th century onwards. The heterogeneous peoples of Africa have traditionally had different settlement areas, which contributes to various conflicts and wars over territorial claims, raw materials, and power.

While most African countries were long governed by autocracy, democratic movements became more common from the late 20th century onward, with Africa performing the worst since democracy measurements began. Poverty, famine, child mortality, and health problems have been significantly reduced in recent decades through advances in education, economics, medicine, and infrastructure. The importance of African countries in the global economy in terms of GDP remains low, with a few exceptions such as South Africa, Nigeria, Egypt, Algeria, Angola, and Morocco. However, several African countries have been among the world's fastest-growing economies since the beginning of the 21st century. The continent's raw materials and arable land are of increasing importance to African countries, as well as to the industrialized and emerging economies that trade with them.

Africa's geography and nature are diverse, with a large number of protected national parks. Africa's UNESCO World Heritage sites are extensive.

Even as a small child I wanted to learn a musical instrument...

...since there was a music school in our small town where I grew up, but it was limited to the activities of the local musicians' band, the choice was rather limited... because piano, guitar or saxophone were not offered and that's why I decided me for the trumpet, which was not used for cast-technical reasons, so the FLÜGELHORN became my instrument...
In my youth I turned my back on music and was active in sports towards the end of my teenage years...
