World Politics/Global Affairs Documentaries Thread

[bailey_187]

So i like watching documentaties about politics around the world, global affairs and all that. Hopefully you guys like to aswell. In this fred, we list them. If we get enough maybe we can divide them up to regions? (btw, i wont embed youtube videos because most posted will be like 40+mins)

Also, one leaning our direction politicaly are obviously going to be better, but dont limit. The BBC maybe biased in someways but they can still make some good docs.

So yeah, most your own, try keep them as uptodate and relevent to current global affairs and politics today. leggo!
