The list witout benin empire

Very funny people.

1169 AD to 1897 AD is how long? 728 years. And that's just till restoration of 1914 and exists till date.

That 728 years doesn't even include the Ogiso/Igodomigodo period.

Ogiso/kings period (pre-1169) had over 35 kings.

My friend, before u post any topic please check your English. There is nothing like the most longest. This is tautological. The correct grammar is "the longest empire" not the most longest. I hope correction is taken.

No doubt, these kingdoms mentioned are noteworthy, but the Bini Kingdom essentially became an empire in the mid 1400's under the reign of Oba Ewuare, and declined in the late 1800's with British invasion.
