See The African Map Of Provinces & Kingdoms Before The Invasion Of The Europeans by Editorialtimes: 6:33pm On Nov 16, 2019 |
Editorial Times | Archive The above is a map of Africa and its kingdoms before the invasion of Europeans. According journals on notes on tribes and provinces, there were many great kingdoms and territories before the invasion of Europeans and Asians. There were the great kingdoms like the Ife of the Yorubas that extended up to parts of the present day Edo state. There was the NOK province. The Nok culture is an early Iron Age population whose material remains are named after the Ham village of Nok in Kaduna State of Nigeria, where their famous terracotta sculptures were first discovered in 1928. The great Igala kingdom lost the Kwararafa people after much agitation for independence. The Igala stood and fought off the Jukuns and the Binis in what were fierce territorial wars. Disagreement led to the Igala kingdom losing both the Nupes in the present day Niger state, the Egbiras and Idomas in the present day Benue state. The great Hausa kingdom according to Temple C. stood tall and was almost indomitable until the Fulani invasion. The Igbo kingdom were largely peacemakers and had stayed centuries without engaging in major wars until the kingdom was colonize by the Europeans. Eri, the god-like founder of Nri, is believed to have settled the region around 948 with other related Igbo cultures following after in the 13th century. The first Eze Nri (King of Nri) Ìfikuánim followed directly after him. According to Igbo oral tradition, his reign started in 1043. THERE HAS BEEN MUCH SPECULATION ABOUT THE ORIGINS OF THE IGBO PEOPLE, AS IT IS UNKNOWN HOW EXACTLY THE GROUP CAME TO FROM.---- WIKIPEDIA Other notable mention are: - The Kush Province - The Punt Kingdom - The Nzambi Kingdom - Teheni Kingdom and many others.
