Episode synopsis
Waldemar and his team visit the largest Western-established Kakuma refugee camp in Northern Kenya. From Kenya we travel into green, hilly Ethiopia, where the team ends up in the middle of the grand religious Timkat Festival. Ethiopia is the only country in Africa that has never been colonized. Is it very different here than in the rest of the continent? We see many companies from Europe and China lured by tax breaks. We end in Sudan, where Waldemar is told that the Nubian empire along the Nile must have been at least as large as that of the Egyptians, with pyramids and tombs.
