Zanzibar is a totally KICK ASS name (as opposed to Turkey-yea, or however they now spell it).

Zanzibar...one of the lesser-known popular revolutions of the decolonization era. The only film of it known to exist is from the documentary “Africa Addio”, where members of the minority-but-dominant Arab/Asian population were being led off to execution.
