Give us testimony of your so called greatness... don't you have great explorers that visit you?? I gave you Leo Africans view of hausaland and Timbuktu almaghili etc tell me yours... you ducking cowards that invite the British to conquer you guys.. stupid slaves
Why are you so fixated on explorers? You people are really born to be morons. .. with all ur knowledge of history you haven't realized that geography plays a key role in what kind of explorers visit ur land.
While more north African explorers would talk more about places like kano, Europeans would talk about Lagos, Benin, and not kano or any village desert

Portuguese explorer Rui de Sequeira, in 1472 wrote about Lagos
Dahomeans had used Portuguese men as Ambassadors to Oyo as early as the 17th century

Go get some sense pls, you just displaying the stupidity known to be synonymous with the name "hausa"

lool! the fulanis were aided by hausas dumb a.ss! there are various hausas states, most of them have hausa leaders, it doesnt matter if the fulanis are emirs, they speak hausa, i doubt any of them speaks a word of fulfulde, they dress like hausa, they are hausa? what is hausa? hausa is not a single ethnicity dweeb, read up on history!


oooh sod off! after we sacked illorin, oyo fell! because you are indeed cowards! and we enslaved you, sold you and kept you for our amusement.


jibber jaber. berbers, dutch, and portugese never had any contact with hausas idiott! you on the other hand, youre saying exactly what happened to you, there is no state that didnt enslave the yoruba people, go to every continent! you are world reknowned slaves, even in your country! the songhai empire ended when they tried to mess with hausa states. the yorubas.... well we did have contact with them, pilaged their villages and sold them off as we pleased, it was easy.

grin grin grin he say aided. Aided to displace your dynasties. .all over hausaland. I've never known a more enslaved and proud people than hausas. .

Yes basically everybody enslaved you....
Read about hausa slaves in the Americas.....
Where are the descendants of pygmies in the new world or Arab world.... what is the average height of their offspring...lol.... stupied person.

Read for yourself, Silly thing....


The slaves sold by Oyo were from four different sources: 1) native criminals, who were not so numerous, 2) war captives, who were the majority 3) slaves given in tribute by vassal states, such as Dahomey, who were not so many, and 4) slaves bought from Nupe, Borgu and even the Hausa states and Borno, especially in the late 18th century. Adams (1786-1800) refers to the large numbers of Hausa slaves for sale at Porto Novo


http://www.dhspriory.org/kenny/NWAfr/a14.htm

LOL, Hausas are just a pathetic race in general.... contributing nothing to both modern and ancient huanity.

The objectives of her conquests were twofold: extension of her nation beyond its primary borders and reducing the conquered cities to a vassal status. Sultan Muhammad Bello of Sokoto stated that, "She made war upon these countries and overcame them entirely so that the people of Katsina paid tribute to her and the men of Kano and... also made war on cities of Bauchi till her kingdom reached to the sea in the south and the west." Likewise, she led her armies as far as Kwararafa and Nupe and, according to the Kano Chronicle, "The Sarkin Nupe sent her (i.e. the princess) 40 eunuchs and 10,000 kola nuts.... haha these were the yoruba slaves caught by nupee and given to queen amina as tribute who would later sell their brothers to them fir shipment to the americas

Oyo had grown into a formidable inland power by the end of the 14th century. For over a century, the Yoruba state had expanded at the expense of its neighbors. During the reign of Onigbogi, Oyo suffered military defeats at the hands of the Nupe led by Tsoede. Sometime around 1535, the Nupe occupied Oyo and forced its ruling dynasty to take refuge in the kingdom of Borgu. The Nupe sacked the capital, destroying Oyo as a regional power until the early 17th century
