YOU ARE TALKING UTTER RUBBISH.

I WILL SCHOOL YOU IN WORLD HISTORY.

LEAVE ASIDE AFRICANS CIVILIZING THE WORLD THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO, WHICH IS UNDISPUTED.

RECENT EUROPEAN HISTORY OF DEVELOPMENT WAS DUE TO THE WORK OF BLACK AFRICANS WHO RULED EUROPE FROM 711 TO THE 1500S AND BROUGHT THEM OUT OF THEIR DARK AGES WHICH WAS CHARACTERISED BY MASS ILLITERACY, IGNORANCE AND POVERTY.

It was BLACK AFRICANS who led Europe into its Renaissance, which was the springboard for the Industrial Revolution.



You are very funny....
The influence of the various moorish states and arab caliphate on the iberian peninsula did not directly cause the industrial revolution, the dark ages referred to the period after the collapse of the western Roman empire which led to a power vacuum, leading to instability... saying that Europeans were savages and poor is very stupid....the Eastern roman empire still existed for a long time till the ottomans conquered Constantinople...
While there would have been transfer of knowledge to the Europeans during moorish/arab rule, it doesn't mean that it directly led to European industrial revolution....
If the berbers were so intelligent, why did they not develop their land.....
Educate yourself with facts....
At the time of the dawn of the western European expansion, the ottoman empire (turks) were the dominant world power, and parts of africa were vassals of Istanbul

Look around you, tell me one thing in your house that was invented by a black man .
Nigerian is the most populous black nation on earth and the state of the country reflects the state of the average black man.

Lastly, Egyptians do not consider themselves to be Africans, they identify as Middle Eastern.
Egyptians are not black, they are not negro race.

By arrogating egyptian history to your black self, you confirm that indeed there is nothing in your life that you can point to that was made by a black man.
While u have a point, it is important to note that Egypt has undergone several demographic changes over the ages, the real ancient Egyptians are black people, like the berbers of North Africa, they will share similar features with ethiopian, somali...
Due to conquest and Egypt been a major economic hub, lots of migration occured and altered the demography..

More than welcome.

These people are so depressingly ignorant of their African contribution to civilization, it is tragic.

The country needs massive reorientation to teach them their African history. Their heads are totally empty. All they see is the modern world, and ''white people'' as the creators of 'civilization'.

Their ignorance stinks to high heavens.

TILL TODAY Europeans celebrate annual festivals where the commemorate their independence from the black African MOORS who ruled Europe from 711 to the 1500s, nearly 800 years.

They wear black face to celebrate.



The moors occupied the Iberian peninsula, present day Spain and Portugal...
So, stop making it look like they occupied the whole of Europe...while the moors consolidated power in Europe, u cannot ignore the Arabs who were the overlords of the moors...so it wasn't just the berbers who ruled, the arabs under certain caliphate were overlords of the moors...

NUBIAN PYRAMIDS OF SUDAN.

There are more pyramids in SUDAN than in Egypt. These were the world's first SKYSCRAPERS built thousands of years ago by black Africans with advanced mathematics when white people were illiterate savages in the caves of the Caucasus mountains of Russia (hence the term 'Caucasian')


What is your point, the same black people who built the pyramids were conquered by the Europeans ,the greeks, the Romans, who occupied Egypt..the arabs as well...what we are stating is very simple, ur inferiority complex will not allow u to comprehend simple fact, that the White people have been superior since the dawn of Western European expansion...
During the height of ancient Egypt, the Egyptians were the most powerful...times have changed.. accept simple facts and move on...
It doesn't demean u..we can only learn and build ourselves...
At some point, the arabs were very powerful , the had some of the biggest Empire the world had ever seen... innovations in mathematics and science flowed all over the Abbasid caliphate...
The pendulum swung to the Europeans and they have held it and pushed humanity to greater heights....now other races are catching up ,
If u like quote how black people started civilization , the truth be say, black people today are no match for the Europeans, we can only learn and build our civilization to greater heights...every knowledge we will need to build, we will learn from other races and adapt to our own unique thought process, that is how civilizations grow

Gun powder came from China , yes, but it is the Europeans that modernized the technology of using firearms, invention can come from a place and another people will copy it and innovate it to superiority...
The same China was defeated by the british in the opium wars...

Hating someone that is superior to you can never help you to progress.


Go to most Asian countries, including China, South Korea, etc, they cherish Americans and Europeans a lot. They almost worship anything American or European because they admire their superiority and creativity and truly desire to be like them.


But you black South Africans think the way to outdo or outshine white race is by diminishing anything white race and by verbally exalting your lazy asses without putting in any rare work.



Have you ever wondered at the technology involved in spaceflight? have you ever wondered?


The white man drew the world map and told you where you belong to yet you lazy blacks think its a joke.



The whiteman told you that you have gold, diamond, crude oil, gas buried beneath your soil, you blacks couldn't have figured it out yet you don't respect such race, isn't that pure madness?
You are very correct, admitting superiority doesn't make us inferior, the whites have propelled human civilization to great heights....
We can only learn and cooperate with all races so we can build our continent...

I laugh at those that are talking about development in Angola. Develo wat? One of the most naturally endowed country in Africa and in the world yet amongst the poorest. Apart from Luanda the country capital the rest provinces and villages are crap. A very poor country with very poor citizens yet the capital city is the most expensive city to live in in the world. I even heard one of their citizens bragging in the video that their capital city is the most expensive city in the world, as if that's something to be happy about. A country where it's citizens are very poor now bragging about been the most expensive place in the world to live? The wealth of that country is in the hands of the few ruling families, the rest of the citizens are wallowing in abject poverty.
Well said

Boondocxs:
Anybody who thinks this is about banditry or Islamic extremism is wrong
It’s always about the natural resources, anybody who knows how the working of the north knows this
The north is blessed with abundant natural resources more then the south, but the media won’t tell you that, they’re all fixated on the oil and gas in the south.
States like zamfara,kaduna,plateau,niger,benue and soon Bauchi and Gombe these estates have so much natural resources in the ground being mined by the state government, western and Asian governments/individuals
These culprits mentioned fund terrorism to keep the people busy then they deploy their machines and machinery to plunder our resources and this resources do not reflect on the government book
Many people don’t know this but there’s a huge connection within banditry/terrorism and state resources
That’s a reason why states that fall victim to these menace are very well blessed with gold,lithium,diamond,copper,iron and other mineral resources
Theses resources are then taken out of the country through the back door with the know of the military
Smuggled and sold outside the country, monies made don’t reflect on the government books

The plan is simple really
Keep the people busy with the killing while I plunder their minerals
This is the reason why banditry has refused to stop because they have fundings and backing from government and powerful individuals
You have hit the nail on the head....
The most important thing u said is Western/Asian....so that everybody will Know that the problem facing us is a multi-faceted one, enabled by selfish interest of Nigerian elites

PaulOtl:

Granted, you said it doesn't make sense to you how we came to have different races of humans, as migration should not have given rise to the several races. I agree with you that such a phenomenon would not make sense to almost everyone alive. But there's a reason for everything, because He is an ' intentional ' Creator, God.
Sometimes when this issue comes to my mind I find myself pondering on how we came to have a caucasian, a latino, an asian, an african, light-skin person, dark-skin person , and so on. But He said, as time goes on, the Holy Spirit will teach you all things. It's still a continuous process. It is still in motion.

Here is what i came to understand (disputable, though). I tried to reflect on the story of the tower of Babel, when God caused the people, plenty of them, to start speaking different languages, in a bid to stop them from depending solely on their human capabilities. They had pride in their hearts, and felt they were their own God.
Just indulge me... I'm driving at something.
So, when he gave them different languages to communicate with, it is possible that at that time the people of Babylon were already of different physical traits, such as skin color and appearance.
Then you may now come to ask, but how come this is so, if it is believed that Adam and Eve where both of the same ethnicity and race ? Surely, they had to have looked alike in terms of skin color and the rest (with exceptions to male-female attributes, of course).
To which I'm tempted to answer, NO. No to mean that Adam and Eve may not have been created in the same hue or race. Sounds absurd, right? Not really. He is a God of design and varieties. Check out the species of fish, dogs and all of the rest (apart from the dog variants that humans crossbred, oh). Aren't they distinctive/different (colours, appearances) yet, still similar in functionality ( hunting patterns, their organs, body parts, are situated in similar positions as those of other species categorized with them) E.g, tiger lion, jaguar, puma, and so on.
They all dont look identical, but however, bear great similarities in both appearance and ways of functioning (stalking prey, pouncing on it, chewing with one side of their mouths whilst feeding, e.t.c) You get the point now? I do hope you do.

Continuing...God was the architect of all of this. Do you think all the angels in heaven look exactly the same? Nope.
Or have the same build, or carriage, or abilities? Absolutely not. It is even recorded in scriptures how some angels were described or detailed (although not revealing that much ).
We do know that some of the angels that appeared to certain individuals, as recorded in scriptures didn't have wings according to their accounts of these visitations, whilst some scripture passages depicte some angels with wings, even carrying swords. Like the Angel Michael. So, this tells us that there is a variance in the appearance of angels, but that they largely have the same figure. ( Same angels, minor difference...Lol..BBN, see what you're causing grin). But i hope this is understandable?

Moving on...It is the same God who created them that way. He likes variety. He wants all to get along together, teaching them love and unity. But people don't seem to get this mystery. God created this mystery to teach humans, and even the hosts of heaven- the angels, the elders, a deep, wise lesson. To showcase his power to create variations of the same living being, yet putting them all on a level-playing field, to showcase equality. After the fall of Adam and Eve, that was when the spirit (the knowledge of evil) of inequality and discord came to the world to corrupt mankind to see one race of people as better looking, more desirous, this and that, than the other race. It was not in the original plan of God for this mindset to be amongst humans. Sin brought it in.
Let me end it here by saying this, and I stand to be corrected by anyone who feels they have a better explanation to this subject, that GOD DIDN'T CREATE ADAM AND EVE OF THE SAME RACE AND EVEN SKIN TONE. He is a master of twists and turns. He is intentional. It is not climate or temperature variations, as claimed by some, that made some people to have a different skin than others. This would have been true if the black Hebrew Africans of the ancient world had always been inhabiting the continent of Africa from the beginning. But we know, according to historians that Africans migrated down to this continent filled with milk and honey (or plentiful natural resources, enough to be envied by the rest of the other citizens of other continents) after they were led to this continent by one of their forefathers called Abraham. Bible historians make this claim, which is plausible if you do some research on it.
No race of people previously inhabited Africa before our earliest ancestors came down here to inhabit it. It was a reserved (intentionally by the creator). God did this mystery. So I'm ruling out climatic factors from being a determinant of the different skin colors we see today. How come some animals that originally started off in Africa (or those only found here ) don't all have black furs or bodies? ) See that? That's God's design. Use the same logic to rationalize what i said. God created Adam and Eve too look different, and so did he create other races too, as time went on (as the descendants kept on bearing children) Im sire even they were also shocked, but they embraced the child thatay have had a different look than they (the parents). God was teaching them something. And also slowly populating the world with the different races, in line with his mysterious grand plan.
Nothing is by accident.

I'm done.
PS: before writing out all these things, I prayed quickly to the Holy Spirit to help give me understanding, so as not to mislead you with my own understanding. You and anyone else thag would take their time ti read through. So, i just believe God to an extent inspired all of the things i have written up there.
Like i said, i stand to be corrected if anyone thinks i am overly wrong in my claims. Also come with your reasons so we may learn better.



You should understand that at the time of the tower of babel, civilizations were already existing during that time, a whole lot of civilizations pre- date biblical records

The earliest Africans were black. These are the Africans that migrated out of Africa. The later Africans that includes the amazigh are mixed breed that resulted from homo sapiens interbreeding with neanderthals. grin
Again, this is very plausible, it makes more sense than to say that climatic condition is the sole reason why we have different races...
With your theory,,. It is noteworthy that the neanderthals will also have diversity amongs them, and also the denisovans would have also been involved in this inter-breeding....
Thereby , leading to a large variety of DNA, the diversity we have today... very plausible
