  1. ​ @neddyseagoon9601  It's not like Britians or other Europeans invented the written word. Using symbols to convey ideas, concepts, or specific things likely originates in the following areas. The Fertile Crescent, the Yangtze or Yellow River valleys and Mesoamerica. I think there is some question whether Egypt developed the idea completely independently. But use of the written word is an entirely different matter. I remember seeing a statistic concerning the publishing industry from around 2003. Just Spain alone saw more published in that year than the area from Morocco to Pakistan. Granted a large percentage of the books published in Spain might have been trashy fiction. If the supposedly literate swath from Morocco to Pakistan saw that little what does it say about Sub Saharan Africa.
