It&#8217;s true! It was called the Dominion of Newfoundland and due to a series of unfortunate events, it had to relinquish its independence. In today&#8217;s video, we cover the vast geography of the province, it&#8217;s very old history (including Vikings!) and how the country managed to lose its independence when it managed to survive on its own for decades. Oh &#8230; and we&#8217;ll also talk about why Labrador got included in the name upon confederating with Canada.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n<p>Stock footage and music is acquired from www.storyblocks.com and videvo.net.
