SmoothCrim: Why are all of you so obsessed with African imperialism in Europe??To reiterate!!! |
| Culture › Re: The Great Songhai Empire by SmoothCrim: 10:56pm On Jul 23, 2012 |
Why are all of you so obsessed with African imperialism in Europe?? It makes it seem like you are desperate to counter European colonialism in Africa by focusing on African imperialism in Europe. This is the wrong premise. The correct premise is the simple fact that Colonialism, Imperialism and other similar ills are BARBARIC, USELESS and embarrassing history which belongs in the dustbin. Why would anyone apart from a very sick person want to relive that barbarian era  It is embarrassing history, shameful history when a group of Barbarians overrun a place and call it an empire! In the end, learn from history rather than finding joy in others misfortune. |

Well since no one is smart enough to debate it thank me later. I just gave you the context to study Ancient West Africa and African cultures. |

shymmex: They ruled Europe during the dark ages before the renaissance, and that was way before 1591..Can you focus the debate on empirical facts so as to not take it down a dangerous route which will skew history to embarrassing things  I have a very holistic understanding of African history so, I am not like the kids who just throw big things out there without understanding it. |

https://0.tqn.com/d/africanhistory/1/0/q/1/timbuktutrade.jpg Gold and Kola nuts are Modern day Ghana-Ivory Coast-Mali... Ivory-Wood-Slaves are modern Nigeria and Cameroon. When Europeans arrived it changed this dynamic and today that area of Africa is very poor, always suffering from drought etc!!But, Mali is the 3rd largest gold producer in Africa behind South Africa and Ghana. So, they are still living off that GOLD GOLD GOLD!!!! |

If we are taking about the Mali Empire by the time the so called Moroccans had overran, it was long past its peak and was dying or dead!!! Many will argue that the Moroccans destroyed it but, that is FALSE FALSE FALSE!!! What destroyed the last remnants of empire was the arrival of Europeans. With European arrival that area no longer was the heart of trade in West Africa, the coastal areas were. Thus, those who may have initially sent their goods through the Trans-Saharan route started to use the Atlantic. This increased the gap in wealth between Coastal West Africa and those further up North! A gap that still exists today. |

Since no one answered my question, Nubia means GOLD! GOLD!!!!! Ancient Africans generally loved Gold!!! These Ancient African cultures are dead in Africa though even though Ghana(the only country I believe) still has a lot of it.

You can't talk about ancient west Africa without talking about GOLD GOLD GOLD!!! In this region without gold you were generally considered a JOKE!! I tried to make that point on another thread but, the trolls over ran it! I love these types of debates!! Lets talk about West African history, ancient West African culture etc etc. |

shymmex: ^^^^Both Nubia and Cush extended into Sudan/Ethiopia.Prove your claims you dumb BOKO!!! I read history objectively. I find it funny that a region that has produced so many empires(second to only North Africa maybe and that is debatable) will have some IDIOTS trying to remove them from the area |

shymmex: ^^^^How did they forget it?FALSE YOU dumb BOKO!!!!!!!! There is no evidence of that. They may have interacted with each other. And there is evidence of that but, it was not a whole scale migration! That is unprovable!!! Don't put Empires in the heart of West Africa in other regions!! |

Ah! That old West Afrikan empire!!! This is the kind of stuff I expect to discuss on here! By the way Cush is Sudan not Ethiopia you dumb Boko! http://wysinger.homestead.com/kush.html The Sudanese have a lot of history but, seem to have forgotten all of it much like most Africans. |
