How old are you? These are stuff that excite secondary school students and jambite.
A proper learned adult knows it's YouTube nonsense

You are a school dropout with no brain.

Get lost from here because this is way above your level.

That video had over 12,000 likes from all over the world, so your village dropout ''I feel too inferior to have amounted to anything'' opinion is worthless in the larger scheme of things.

We know your problem - inferiority complex. WHAT ELSE CAN IT BE?

''My ancestors were in the bush naked, and white man civilised me.''

ISN'T THAT ALL YOU KNOW?

Empty head.

Most of you Nigerian youths are a disgrace. The worst are your type who revel in your ignorance and self-loathing.

More facts:

Edo was a village that became the capital of Japan in 1603 when a military commander Tokugawa Ieyasu established the Tokugawa Shogunate.

Edo grew into a huge city with a population of over a million by the mid-eighteenth century.

The name was changed to Tokyo in 1868 when the Tokugawa Shogunate ended and the new emperor, Meiji, moved his residence there..

- The title of the Benin kingdom's top military commander was the IYASE.

- A 'Shogunate' is a district managed by an 'Ogun officer' of the type that manned Benin's regions.

The Japanese and the Edo people have a similar form of greeting which is Domo.

Domo in Edo means 'Greetings'.

Domo in Japanese is a way of greeting, and it can work as a 'thank you' in the Japanese world.

It's also interesting that in Modern day Nigeria it's only the Bini monarchy and monarchy's that descended from the Bini monarchy like Warri and Agbor, that have the tradition of the first son being the heir to the throne. Practically all the other monarchs in Nigeria are selected by king makers. First son heir to the throne is the same as Japan.

There are also clear similarities between traditional Japanese and Edo attires.

We must remember our historical knowledge is quite limited and anything before the 1700's is more or less a blackhole. The similarities between Edo and Japan's culture are too striking to be dismissed. At the very least, it seems there was some form historical interactions between the 2 cultures with one influencing the other.

You are a BRAINWASHED little Nigerian that knows NOTHING about African history or the MOORS.

You can't even spell the word properly.

It's THE MOORS.

There is no 'E'.

The MOORS were BLACK AFRICANS.

If you go on Google Images and type in ''MOORISH CRESTS'', you will see THOUSANDS of images of medieval European aristocratic family crests and coats-of-arms, with their BLACK AFRICAN progenitors.

You will see NO Arabs, because the Moors were BLACK AFRICANS.

The MOORS ruled large parts of Europe, particularly Spain and Portugal, for over 800 years up till the 1600s.

Their statues are all over Europe, and they are depicted as BLACKS.

They even hold annual FESTIVALS in Europe where the whites wear BLACKFACE in celebration of the Moorish era.

You have to wonder what would make people resistant to the fact that their African ancestors were intelligent people.

Even refusing to examine the evidence.

It just shows you the type of human beings we have around us today.

Completely useless set of people.

What war?

The Moorish invasion of Spain was carried out by black African Moors who captured Andalusia in the year 711.

The term MOOR means ‘Maurus’, meaning BLACK.

The Moors are depicted in ALL European art and artefacts as BLACKS.

donno. And dommo re diff. Besides donno means lord in feudal Japan

The black African Moorish army was led by a black African Muslim general named Tarik Ibn Ziyad.

That people in Morocco portray him as an Arab, is of the same school of LIES, DECEIT, and THEFT, as the Arabs in Egypt claiming they were the ancient Egyptians, when in fact they are descended from 7th century jihadist invaders of Egypt.

Stop believing the European/Arab WHITEWASHING of African history.

They are born LIARS and THIEVES.

THERE IS NOT A SINGLE ARAB MOORISH STATUE OR PAINTING IN EUROPE. THE MOORS ARE PORTRAYED AS BLACKS.

Go to Egypt and see how they have knocked off the noses from the pharaoh statues, to disguise their African broad noses.

It’s an entire industry, the whitewashing.

They have no real history of their own, so they steal black history and present it as theirs.

How could Edo have conquered Japan around the 17th century when they were not known to have had a seafaring tradition or a standing army capable of performing such a feat? Does it sound plausible that they had the capacity to travel all the way to Japan and conquer territory, yet a little over two centuries later they were easily overwhelmed and caved in to the invasion and sacking of their empire by just a handful of British invaders?

I think it would be more helpful and educationally enriching to have a discussion on why in the 17th to 19th centuries a empire as large, influential and as old as the Benin empire of the time didn’t have the knowledge, foresight and capability to build a army capable of defending its territory? Even the mighty Roman empire, the Mongol empire of Ghengis and Kublai Khan and ancient Egypt that existed centuries or thousands of years before the Benin empire knew the importance of having a powerful army and keeping abreast with all the latest military innovations, so what happened with the Binis?

I’m sure some of you watched the documentary on AriseTV over the weekend on the stolen artefacts of the Benin empire as well as the ancient civilisations that produced the Ife and Igbo-Ukwu bronzes. I was left wondering how the British colonial gov’t found it so easy to overrun Benin, depose their King and send him into exile while plundering his palace of all it valuables! I was left embarrassed as well as angry after watching it!

Keep fooling yourself

Do Benin have the capacity to conquer Igala or minority tribes in Nigeria talk more of invading oversea. Which ship did they used to sail to japan?

The op that dropped this rubbish don't even know the distance between Nigeria and japan

From Nigeria to japan will take you 18 hours with modern air craft. You know howmany months it will take you to sail to japan using ship as earoplane was not common then and Benin are not even known as sailors.

Can Benin conquer fulani?. They have to first conquer their fellow negro tribes before going oversea

Keep posting rubbish

Spewing nonsense with confidence?😂
“Moors” was actually a catch-all used by medieval Europeans to describe Muslims from North Africa, the Iberian Peninsula, and beyond that. It wasn’t even an ethnic monolith.
The Moors was like a combo of Berbers (indigenous North Africans), Arabs(who conquered North Africa in the 7th century), and even converted Iberians. How can you say they were only blacks?🤷🏼
Saying “Moors were Black Africans” is like saying “Europeans are Vikings.” lol
Now, if the Moors were only Black Africans, why do medieval Arab chroniclers like Ibn Khaldun describe them as Berbers and Arabs?

Some European heraldry depicts Moors as Black figures, but this is actually symbolism, not a census. Common Sense.
The mediaval Europeans would use “Moor” as a shorthand for “exotic” or “non-Christian,” which led to depicting them from Black Africans to turbaned Arabs.
The same Europeans who painted Black Moors also painted St. Maurice as a Black knight, despite him being Egyptian. .

Again, nonsense. The Moors ruled parts of Iberia (modern Spain and Portugal), not “Europe,”
Just in case you aren't aware, the Umayyad Caliphate, which conquered Iberia, was an Arab dynasty. The Berber Almoravids and Almohads later ruled parts of Iberia, but they weren’t completely Black Africans either.

The modern festivals are cultural reenactments, not historical documentaries.
These festivals emerged centuries after the Reconquista and reflect local folklore, not accurate depictions of Moors.
The Moors themselves left statues and art (e.g,the Alhambra) that depict themselves as Arab and Berber, not Black African. You seem to know better than them.

Again, and again, the Umayyad Caliphate, which launched the Iberian conquest was an Arab dynasty.
Tariq ibn Ziyad, the general who led the invasion, was Berber, but his army included Arabs and was part of an Arab-led empire. Do you understand?
