You are a stark illiterate! Apart from English language being a tool of communication among the numerous ethnic groups, and a colonial legacy - where is the correlation between the two?

Heck, the system of government in Nigeria is entirely different. And the Brits left the ethnic system they met intact, save for the Igbos who never developed a central system. The Yoruba system was left intact. Ditto the Caliphate, Bini etc..

And where is the answer to my question, you panda IQ having village illiterate?

I reiterate: what is the Nigerian culture/tradition?

shymexx:
If you don't understand that, just leave it.

British history is definitely something you can't debate with me. Like I said earlier, read his post carefully and you will see what he was alluding to.

ElFenomeno1:
Kicking off right here yo

shymexx:
Lol, you are a village stark illiterate and rabid dog who just bark around with limited lexicon. I will my foot in ya ar.se today, and make you run offline for a few days, like you always do after I give you a beat down. And this time, I might come to ya shared room apartment in Camberwell, drag ya midget bald headed ar.se out - and give you another ar.se whooping there.

I see ya lexicon has improved a tad bit of late, after stealing smithereens, utter tosh, and God complex from my post. But it seems you didn't learn from the past, and a year on meds, and knowing who ya boss is, still hasn't stopped ya lunacy. I shall tear you a new ar.sehole today.


The nucleus of every empire is built on language, culture, system, and tradition. I already drew the correlation between Roman and British empire - and cited an academic proof. I will cite gazillion of academic proofs as we proceed. But before that: can you please tell me the correlation between Nigeria and the British empire in terms of culture, tradition, and system?

shymexx:
@sagamite

If you still don't get it, I can't help you. We just have to agree to disagree. Not in the mood for circus argument today, unless you are hell bent on increasing your 6-0 deficit in our duels to 7.


Anyway, can you explain what Nigerian culture and tradition is? That is one aspect of Nigeria, I still understand. I know about Yoruba culture and tradition, the Caliphate with Fulani and Hausa, the Edos, the Igbos etc.. But I still don't know what the Nigerian one is.

sukkot:
bros you make absolutely no points and your parallels failed from the start. first off nigeria is a sovereign nation that got invaded and colonized. then the colonizers left. in the case of the roman empire, there were no colonizers, the empire simply splintered into the eurozone. how is that the same with the nigerian situation ?

shymexx:
- Is there a real Nigerian identity apart from the one that exist only on paper? Language like the whole England speaks on English? What's the correlation between all the numerous Nigerian cultures and traditions vis a vis the English?

- Is the Nigerian system of government not a bad copy of the American one? So where is British correlation there?

- Did the Brits start any cities and towns in Nigeria, like the Romans did - thus eroding the old system and creating a new system entirely - which all the subsequent invaders left intact with a continuation?

- Did other invaders invade Nigeria, and subsequently wiped out the indigenous people gradually to create a new unique identity in a legacy that the Romans built, with a language that is predominantly of Roman/Latin origin? Etc..

Heck, I just gave you a research paper on how the British Empire builders also had to study the Roman Empire, and mastered everything it did before going on a sojourn to conquer the world. That is just self-explanatory.

Like I told you, I'm not the type you can troll. You know our scores from the past. So, if you are bored - go troll someone else.

sukkot:
i think we owe it to humanity and civilization to destroy that coconut headed nigga Sagamite in this thread. we cant let him continue to regurgitate the contents of his empty head on this forum unchallenged while strutting around like a peacock, like he the king tut around here. what say you shymexx ?

sukkot:
we did that already. backtrack a few posts. now lets see your documents

shymexx:
What is the correlation between Nigeria, and UK in terms of culture, and tradition - which are the two nucleus of an empire?

I can draw parallels on how Kingdom of Kush birthed Aksum. How Ghana Kingdom birthed Songhay etc..

Anyway, I'm not the type to troll and you should know better. Just leave it and move on, if you still don't get it. You can continue trolling buzugee.

shymexx:
Let me help break down everything Buzugee was alluding to in clearer terms. The guy has a weird way of putting his message across because of his Black Hebrew Israelite thing - but he does know his stuff.

- The Romans invaded and conquered Britain. And the legacy, culture, and structures (in terms of how the ruled is ruled and how they united all the tribes) they left behind were never eroded by the subsequent invaders. From the Saxons, to the Normans, to the Jutes, to the Angles (commonly called Vandals/barbarians).

- Even after they "left" most of the tribal elites embraced the Roman culture. And the romanisation of Britain is till evident in the way the country is set up, and most of the cities/towns were founded by the Romans.

- When you also look at the fact that the rise of Constantine started in York. And he subsequently started Roman Catholic drive through the Council of Nicea, that made religion part of the state - and what was to become the blueprint for all imperial European empires. In which the British empire became the pinnacle of. Hence Buzugee citing Roman Empire as metamorphosing into the British Empire. Furthermore, the United States, which is also modeled like a pseudo-British Empire looks more like a copy of republican Rome. Heck, the builders of the British Empire also saw themselves as a continuation of a tradition, culture, and legacy built by Rome.

Also, the English language is a bastard language - which might be labelled as "Anglo-Saxon" but it's more or less predominantly latin. Then you've to look at how the father of modern English language and literature, Shakespeare, also based most of his writings on Julius Caesar, Anthony and Cleopatra, and Coriolanus.

From the brief explanation I made...once you look at the architecture, language, art, western system of government etc.. You will definitely see a continuity from what the Romans built, to how it transcended into the British Empire - and a continuation of that legacy in America and today's western world. And I believe that was what Buzugee was alluding to - not the simplistic understanding these airheads are giving to it.

If you're a history buff, you should be able to sift through all the extras in his posts - and get a clearer picture of what he's saying. Also, historians allude to this all the time. It was built in Rome. Expanded by the British Empire. And America continued the legacy. That's classical history right there for you.

The messenger added the racial dimension and his own bias to it, but the parallels between the two empires are taught in classical history. And that is something the simpletons who run around this forum like a pikey will never know because of the lack of knowledge, and the simplistic way in which they translate everything.

sukkot:
you did see all the documents we ( myself and shymexx ) pulled out right ? to support all our points. notice how you have not pulled up one single document. all you are doing is regurgitating like a ruminant the contents of your coconut head. coconut head a-s-s nigga

sukkot:
not assertions. facts. get it right Sagamite * sigh *

sukkot:

sukkot:
i think Sagamite has had one too many shots of that cheap african vodka called ogogoro this morning. he would do well to take your advice. leave it alone Sagamite. you are swimming in shallow waters against two deep water sharks

sukkot:
you aint exactly ask an intelligent question bruh

sukkot:
nah it was reading your posts. i lost a couple of brain cells when reading your posts. this is what destroyed my life

shymexx:
He drew a parallel between the Roman Empire and British Empire, and called the British Empire an indirect continuation of Roman Empire.
And I basically broke it down for you, also citing the summary of a journal from Stanford University on how the British Empire was the heir to the Roman Empire, and how the British Empire builders modelled everything after Rome. If you don't understand that, just leave it.
British history is definitely something you can't debate with me. Like I said earlier, read his post carefully and you will see what he was alluding to.

While the 15m$ was with the south Africans, was it hidden under Jacob Zuma's bed? They held the money illegally for about two months. They should remit every kobo that accrued on it while it was in their bank.

akinsadeez:
I never said it was my money, I said it is our money. The 15m$ belongs to Nigeria and Nigeria is an amorphous entity. We, the people are the ones who make up Nigeria. The money is therefore our money.

akinsadeez:
Imagine the huge amount of interest that 15m$ would have earned in the bank. These south africans are thieves. They must return our money with all accrued interest

shymexx:
I think the guy you quoted is buzugee, and he knows more about history than all the other clowns combined.

And yes, the Romans invaded and conquered Britain. And that was where the name "Britannia" meaning Roman Britain came from. The Roman legacy is still evident all over the UK. And there are a lot folks with Roman ancestry. When you see any ethnic Brit with an extremely big nose - you should be able to deduce that the person might be of Roman ancestry.

Anyway, the guy was closer to the truth than the resident clowns, but they twisted and took his words out of context.

sukkot:
its like this, there are four beasts. its the history of the world allegorically written. the first beast is the babylonian empire. the second beast is the medopersian empire. the third beast is the greek empire and the fourth beast is the roman empire. we are currently under the rulership of the fourth beast which is the caucasian empire aka roman empire. you think it is mere coincidence that the white man is ruling the world ? its his turn. he is the fourth beast. empires come and empires go. they are called beasts.

sukkot:
the roman empire did not fall. it proliferated into the eurozone and usa. these are all the roman empire. this is why all the buildings in these countries are built like the ancient roman buildings and why their sports arenas are built like the romans coliseums and why they use the roman numeral. they are the roman empire but are calling themselves different names now. are you saying all the humans from the roman empire disappeared from the earth ? try to get some understanding. its like how kwara state broke into kogi and whatever state it broke into ( am not familiar with nigerian states )

sukkot:
you need to read some more. the roman empire is very much around. they have been through different phases. first off around 193 AD a black general from the interiors of africa came with his army and conquered them. his name is septemius severus. this ushered in what is known as the holy roman empire. during this era the empire was dominated by black men. some call it the dark ages or the second temple or byzantine. then the fall of the holy roman empire came around 1300 or so and the caucasians took power again in what is known as the european rennaisance. it was during this period that they started exploring the world and disovered america and added it to their empire. so the roman empire did not go anywhere. it is called the eurozone and usa today. the empire itself proliferated into several european nations and three of these nations annexed america ( french spain and britain )

akinsadeez:
That's how people like you fail exams. You will see something written expressly yet go ahead, interpret something else in your brain and then spew rubbish. Where did you see anything about likes in my post? I wrote it there clearly that I was happy some people ''understand'' the angle from which I was arguing. How in the world 'understand' changed to 'Nairaland likes' in your own brain I will never know. Have you thought that someone might understand my point without actually pressing the like button. I am not a kid like you that hunts for likes on Nairaland.

I have been arguing constructively with people on this thread, which is how it should be. Don't bring your ill-thought, ill-digested mundane issues into this. If you can't address the issues like someone educated, then stay out of the debate. Maybe you can learn from Sagamite.
This is the last time I will be quoting or replying you

Exemplary judgement that HOPEFULLY manifests the growing INDEPENDENCE of our federal judiciary. Unfortunately one cannot say the same of the state judiciaries that are corruptly tied to the governors.

We ALL need to learn to do things properly in line with established LAWS just as the oyinbos do and we are running there to be voluntary SLAVES to them.
