Black people in Africa mostly marry people from their tribe some times from their region or village and some can't even date people from other tribes, even for oyinbo land blacks there rare ly date people from other race or marry them, what's the reason for this behaviour

Well,


There is parental influence



Tribalism/ethnic differences





Culture disparity



Religion




Taste


These are a few of d factors that causes this

because the devil u know is better than the Angel u don't know.

But this behavior is mainly known to black people is not a thing in other race

most tyms, just to save urself d stress and drama from family.. to avoid d 'we warned u about them' part

You are generalising when you say why do black people in africa. Not all black people in africa are tribalistic. For example in south african we see all blacks as equal and hence it won't be hard finding a zulu married to a sotho, pedi etc. I have noticed that its more common with nigerians the tribe issue.

African tribes used to fight each other for land, water, cows, etc. Most of them. So there is a mistrust. But people of a village are relatives, unless it's a mixed people, which is rare. Marriage within tribes for my people usually is allowed between clans and sub tribes and also other tribes. It depends on individual families.
