No Nambia either. And where's the Democratic Republic of the Covfefe?
Hamberder Leone gets forgotten yet again 😔
Yeah, aren't they our trade partners any more? Who pissed off T'Challa?
Of course not, the white house has no clue what Wakanda is. Those movies have black people in them.

Ghana and half of Togo.
