dustydee:It's just sad. I don't know if it's our education system. The return of artefacts stolen from the palace of the king of Dahomey by a French general has been in the news since yesterday. |

HartIse:don't waste your time on that fool, he seems to have dedicated his life to trolling Edo on social media. Although, France like almost all european countries have artworks from Oba palace looted in 1897, the british sold many of those to other european countries and to america. |

Just to inform the miseducated fools running their mouths. Benin Kingdom is a large precolonial African country ruled by a King, Omo n'Oba n'Edo. The capital of that Kingdom is called Benin City. The name of the people of the kingdom is Edo and their language is also called Edo. The french colony formerly called dahomey changed its name after independence (the 70's) and chose the name Benin from Benin Kingdom. Benin Kingdom also gave its name to the bight of Benin several hundred years ago. This piece of education is given to you for free, now some trolls will go to their graves with a nonempty brain. |

Some people here are confused. It's Benin "Republic, the country. . .not Benin "Edo " the state. The British took our own Artwork cause they were our colonial masters. . .while the French took Benin Republic's artwork because they were the colonial masters there. .hence the French speaking. |
Re: President Emmanuel Macron To Return Benin Artworks 'Stolen' From Benin Republic by Nobody: 4:14pm On Nov 24, 2018 |
Ashley86400:what kind if silly education makes you say the expression "colonial masters" ? Sometimes you guys have to question your expressions. The british were invadors who invaded our kingdom, they were never our masters ! For your info, Benin Kingdom was also a country. |

prolog2: 1-I used the word "colonial masters" so everyone could understand what I was saying. . .calm down. We all know they were invadeea looters and pillagers. 2- For who's info? Every student who studied history knows an Empire is basically a ruled kingdom. .just as the Benin Empire was, so why ate you for your info-ing me? 3- Don't play dumb, if you're smart as you feel, it shouldn't be hard for you to know that France would be returning stolen arts to a couple they they once ruled. .and since the Benin Empire had problems with the British (not France), therefore losing thousands of Artworks. . so which other Benin would it be in west Africa, if not your country's neighbour? Don't bother replying. |
