@datoda3593 Literally everyone is in the tribal phase. Literally anything can replace a “tribe” I honestly think it’s pretty dumb to call ethnic groups in Africa tribes when they can number in the millions of people and can be considered their own countries.

「 Deadpoppin 」 Yeah China is one of the poster child of stability lmaoo. They literally break up every once in a while and millions die.

@henryp9671 That literally can happen in any country what the fuck is your point?

@henryp9671 any fucking evidence? Dont cite states that have subcultures as second class citizens or slaves.

@TheRealGigachad1848 USA? Rome? Persia?

「 Deadpoppin 」 But different groups also fight each other as well. Regional differences in China is a very real thing. Han Chinese shouldn’t even be a real ethnic group its an extreme over generalization. Plus the other 50 ethnicities there. The same thing applies to Japan, India etc etc.

That isn’t the fate at all economic growth rates, pre colonization, and already existing examples like Botswana prove that isn’t the case.

@PsilentMusicUK He was assassinated.

@PsilentMusicUK I believe the leader of Ghana was one as well and he put the country on a good track it is one if the most stable democracies in Africa.

@andrewlove3686 Lol The Dutch caused bushmen populations to plummet with disease, conflict, and enslavement. The Bantus simply had a higher population due to them being farmers and the san Hunter gatherers. Of course there were conflicts but most of the time it was just mixing. The 90 to 10 percent makes sense given how much of a difference in population sizes there were. God you are fucking stupid. If the human species were dogs we would be one breed.

@Reactionary_Harkonnen Ummmm when you say culture and politics of the modern world people descended from Africa dont play a role lmaooo? Rock and roll? Jazz? Rnb? Reggae? Hiphop? Blues? You got to be shitting me. The civil rights movement literally changed so much about the western world. Played an important role in the reasons for the world wars? The Atlantic slave trade? Trans Saharan slave trade, and Indian Ocean trade? I honestly dont think that anyone continent’s peoples are more responsible for how the world has turned it can be literally looked at in millions of types of ways. The modern world is shaped by us all lmaooo what a dumb take.

@Reactionary_Harkonnen Ok? The republic , Businesses ownership, land ownership, democracy, the scientific method, Modern homes(?????), and making maps are all much older. Civli rights? Yeah thats why things like ethnic cleansing, and inquisitions killed millions of people in Europe since forever.

Egypt did not colonize Africa what the fuck? How the fuck is Egypt conquering their neighbor colonization? They are both African nations. You can make a case for the Omanis but even then the relationship wasn’t colonialism.

@Adsper2000 Did Germany colonize France during world war 2?
2
@Adsper2000 Why does period of time play a role in wether something is colonization or just taking over a country? Colonialism isn’t imperialism. From what I understand Egypt did not settle Sudan, the relationship was not one of a colonizer and the colonized, and the Egyptians themselves were under the control of Britain. Really dont see how that is colonization.

「 Deadpoppin 」 An example

@gabrielthompson7581 I dont like the predictions at all.

@andrewlove3686 The bantu expansion wasn’t United movement under a state. Much of West Africa have been united various times. The horn and the north part of the nile have also been united a few times. The things is An empire conquering a single region like West Africa would most likely be impossible given the diversity and shifts in terrain.

@pteranodon6612 It happened i.e Sehalian empires

Dont know I can forgive him that Africa civilization map from a while back. HE CALLED SOMALIAS ILLITERATE GOAT HERDERS AND LEFT OUT THE SWAHILI COAST.

Timber, gold, diamonds, metals etc etc.

The Kushites is literally one of the most underrated African civilizations.
2
For most of human history Africa was on par it wasn’t until 18th and 19th century then they really fell behind. Local African gunsmiths could recreate muskets but with evolution of the breach loaded rife Africans couldn’t copy since they needed industrial steel.

@YaBoiDREX They could take the bred horses in Africa that can withstand the fly.

@JKTProductionzIncNCo you are just straight making stuff up. Did you just say India, Bangladesh, and Burma are homogeneous? India has like hundreds of ethnicities and Burma and Bangladesh have like 50 each. Does monoculture to you just mean having the same skin color or something? Are do you just think that most Asian people are the same? What do you define as diversity? Literally most countries on earth or diverse except for countries like North Korea for example.

@ihavenojawandimustscream4681 It depends on which region and pretty sure that instability was quite common. In the medieval and ancient world. More than 200 years of peace and stability without rebellion and wars of expansion was rarely ever seen.

@matthiuskoenig3378 Bullshit. They spent it on building infrastructure to extract resources. I dont even think we have a number on all the wealth in resources and labor they took. The greatest example is Leopold’s Congo.

@elhefe8570 What the fuck do you mean by always. Its so upsetting how people are so dumb. The Sehalian empires literally formed by taxing merchants trading in salt and gold and consolidating the states along the northern Niger river and keeping the separate gold producing kingdoms of the forest mining and the tuareg and other groups in the north quarrying salt. The Swahili City and Somalia states capitalized on being in the middle of two in demand markets the gold and ivory of inland Africa and the spices and silks of Asia. The items reached as far as China

@elhefe8570 Didn’t colonization end like 50 years ago? Do you have evidence that their economies aren’t growing, more people are getting educated? Culture? Hip Hop, Rock, blues, jazz, reggae, etc etc. Are you high? Intelligence. It would make much sense if you were a race realist. Only you guys and a few other groups of people are able to spew such garbage.

The AU is already a thing as well. Also there exists unions for all the regions in Africa.

@alezar2035 Like the EAF as well?

@rossevanricamara4169 You don’t even know your history lmaoo. The bantu migration wasn’t some united push. It was series of migrations and that lasted thousands of years. Of course there were conflicts but most of the time it was simply that the farming Bantus had a larger population than the San so most of them intermixed. Which is why almost all San and Bantu peoples in South Africa have each others DNA it is also why click consonants are found within Nguni languages. The tutsi and hutus problems were caused mostly by colonialists who divided them on bullshit racial science and let the Tutsi rule and treat the Hutus horribly. “When African themselves became more oppressive than whites?” Became?? What in the ever fucking hell do you mean by that?

@rossevanricamara4169 Rhodesia was a shit country and the ruling class brought it on themselves lmaoo. How dumb do you have to be to think that would be sustainable?
