I’m not sure what the map is trying to say, it makes sense. Vaush is a large youtuber and most of the nations in Blue are English speaking or have large English as a second language populations. The US also does not teach very indepth about African politics (they’d have to mention Liberia, among many many other inconvenient things for the education system) and absolutely wouldn’t teach enough about politics to even mention Sankara outside of specialized classes in universities explicitly about Africa.
It makes sense Sankara would be a popular figure in Africa and nations that face colonialism or were formerly benefactors of a socialist education system that would make mention of him, though I should say searches does not necessarily mean positive. I doubt, for example, France has a very positive opinion of him.
Also, why are Mexico, Argentina, Germany, Ukraine, and Brasil a different shade of red from every other nation?

It’s just under the search terms, “Colour intensity represents percentage of searches”
