Things every Jamaican should know

I was talking to a person recently who referred to themself as Jamaican. However I was appalled that the did not know the basics about the island; like how many heroes there are and what is the name of the National anthem. They had the accent so i did not doubt that they were native tot he island. But surely they lacked patriotism. How can you call your self Jamaican and not know the national emblems? I think such a person should not call themself Jamaica, what do you think? As it relates to the title I beleive that the every Jamaican should know these things. If you think I have missed a few items, please feel free to jot in the commnets section below. Every Jamaican should know: Some history about the island (not necessarily aout the Carib Idians but some history) What are the national emblems What are the National Colors What is the name of the Prime Minister of the island The name of the Chief of Police How many parishes are in the island What is a bulla How to speak the Language
