Majority of those war was based on land grabbing

Burgcudi:
Where is Benin (present day Edo) ?

chiagozien:
The same oya soldiers that dehomey women defeated or another one?



How come they lost kwara to fulanis?

BOOZELEE:
Rubbish list

Oyo did not fight any strong opponent..Infact when they finally fought against a strong organized opponent fulanis they were thoroughly defeated.

Kebbi empire should be on the list becos they defeated the dreaded almighty shongai empire and held there ground against kanem bornu.
Queen Amina of zaria,Bornu empire,Benin empire, even fulani conquerors should be a better replacement.

Where did you get your own version of bigoted history? The Fulani invaders that the Oyo Calvary wiped out completely at Osogbo in the early 19th century, thus ending the Fulani forage into Yoruba lands forever.

Helinuse:
We must not lie just because we want to join others in a story.

There is nothing like the Oyo Calvary.

We only know of the Oyo Empire.

Oyo calvary was sucking breast where Ekumeku warriors dey.

Most of Igbo societies did not have king. Ancient Igbo rely on Nri kingdom as their spiritual guider.

Even Nri kingdom is not land grabber as old Oyo empire was. NRI kingdom rules over all Igboland and beyond without grabbing land.

Do you that Igbo front Nri kingdom for Benin kingdom later Benin formed oduduwa kingdom before the greediness led them to form Oyo empire or Oyo land grabbing

galantjoe:
Igbo do not believe in kingship and empire. They live in communities without king. But did organize themselves whenever there was a common threat to various community. That was how Ekumeku warriors was formed to fight British imperialism in Igbo land. That was why igboland was nation that was colonized in Nigeria colonisation history

In Osogbo the Oyo used infantry to defeat Ilorin calvary. By the time Ibadan became the Oyo headquarters Oyo was no longer a calvary power. Ibadan relied on infantry as calvary was not effective in the forest. The Oyo empire before the rise of Ibadan relied on Calvary and the Calvary was well feared. I remember reading they stationed over 300k calvary close to Kanem Borno at one point.

Then people defeated in Osogbo were Yoruba Muslims. The Fulani never crossed Bariba land to fight Ibadan. The leader of that particular expedition was Ali the Hausa Balogun of Ilorin whose descendants are now the Emir
