Who built the cool castle in Zimbabwe?

Because we destrpyed them, like Benin.
Sorry about that lads.

When did sub-saharan africans begin with agriculture?
Are there any impressive sub-saharan architectural works?
Did africans practice slavery?
Are you blood or crip?

The shona built the stone ruins throughout Zimbabwe and bostwana they decided to settle down during the middle ages apartheid officials tried to claim that it wasn't built by blacks saying shit like it was ancient persians or jews or a lost tribe of Europeans

Apparently is wasn't cheep considering the looting but hey move forward not backwards

Do you acknowledge that Egyptians were black-skinned and woolly-haired?

>For it is plain to see that Colchians are Egyptians; and this that I say I myself noted before I heard it from others. When I began to think on this matter, I inquired of both peoples; and the Colchians remembered the Egyptians better than the Egyptians remembered the Colchians; the Egyptians said that they held the Colchians to be part of Sesostris' army. I myself guessed it to be so, partly because they are and

Herodotus

Agriculture was developed in west Africa between 5000 and 4000 B.C. they farmed rice millet sourghum yams kola nuts bottle gourds pigs goats genuian Fowls and Raffia palms

In the east they adopted agriculture from the Egyptians though Ethiopians domesticated coffee

Slavery was practiced but is was more akin to feudalism and was not permanent your child weren't born into it you could reach high social positions marry for example Mansa Sakura was a slave who fought under Mali's first emperor

you a crip or a blood cuz?

Well egyptians had brown but weren't black also i think they're referencing nubians A group seperate from Egyptians who at one point conqured them but so did every one who lived near them at some point

Neither

If it was possible, would it be better to dismantle African countries and redraw the borders from scratch (obviously Africans would choose)? Among ethnic or cultural lines? Or is it far too late?

How did the Bantu end up spread all over the continent?

Probably you'd end up with micro nations
They adopted agriculture and metallurgy from groups like the igbo then started migrating south

Why south? Better farming opportunities?

Population growth, less competition ,and better grazing for cattle

Then why was it so easy for Euros to colonize Africa? Its a massive continent with vast jungles, hostile climate, and plenty of inhabitants that practiced agriculture and had an advanced metallurgy industry

Since we are black, do you consider us honorary Africans?

where does the "ancient Egyptians were black" come from? do they teach black people that at school? or is it just because Egypt is in Africa so black people think it must be black because Africa is mostly black?

One said had muskets spears and swords other side had maxim guns repeating rifle though more europeans died colonizing africa than in india and south east asia

People in the U.S.A. think africa is a country plus that Nubia themed Michael Jackson video people confuse for Egypt
