45:25 In most African Cultures, there is something of a unified God that is of a higher class of being as other supernatural beings but that God is quite distant and doesn't interfare.
43:50 Okay, this, I don't get at all. Cuz its not like according to ur maps Africa is unique in this(also that Red area would extended further) Much of Asia(Siberia, the Steppe, etc), the Americas, Aborigonies, S.E.A and Nusantara also lacked states so why would only Africa be having this style of organization linked to lack of states?.
46:30 I mean, I have worked there and read an early colonial book that touched on that. Its more that your workers have to respect you first and won't just follow u due to an abstract ideal that they should follow their bosses. In Other words, those people probably don't do the culture shift in working with different cultures, the Chinese and Koreans setting up manufactores in USA seem be be ware that yeah, you need to have a culture shift.
46:34 I also dispute this. My knowledge on this is mostly the Kwa Speaking Guinea sub-region but Women there more commonly had a more local level control over the markets and in some had official women's councils as the institution of the micro-state/tribe, whatever you want to call it. Such official recognition of power is a fact of respect not condensation.
46:48 No, reject modernity. And tribes cool. Much of the world is still tribe and clan based from Korea and China to Qatar and Arabia, I see no reason for a force move to "nation level".
