*Mombasa survived* - the Portuguese were kicked out after a two-year siege on Fort Jesus from 1696 to 1698 by the Omani Arabs, led by Saif bin Sultan. The capture of the fort marked the end of Portuguese presence on the Kenyan coast...
Thanks for this video. I am a Kongo from DRC and I speak kikongo. I watched the video with a mix of joy and sadness. Ah Kongo! Was it a mistake for Kongo to welcome Portuguese? I think yes. The decline of Kongo began with its encounter with Portugal. Portugal learned constitutional democracy from Kongo. But Kongo learned greed and as a whole the art of chaos from Portugal.
Delusional African... You were primitive and incredibly undeveloped. Europeans conquired Africa, because you couldn't face their military and technology advancements.
But the Muscovite lands had nothing to do with Rus land until they bought Kiev from the Poles and later, thanks to Khmelnytsky, they took control of most of Rus. There was even an idea king to move, and thus the capital, to Kiev. Moscow became very stronger thanks to Rus, and a certain Cossack even won the Siberian Khanate for Moscow. True?
This was a slave state, made rich on the selling of slaves to the Muslim Caliphates of North Africa and the Middle East. Later to the Atlantic slave trade. The Ashanti were one of the states destroyed by the British during their campaigns to stamp out the African Slave Trade in the late 1800s.
The Almoravids where more than just a Berber empire, they started in the south of the Atlas mountains, and their territory extended well into Subsaharan West Africa, They basicaly controled the Gold trade in this part of the world. their West African endevours and history is often overlooked despite it being their primary power and ultimately their fall when the Almohads cut the link between the subsaharan and Moroccan sides
Ones you will check DNA map of Europe then you will get Slavs where they were 6000 years ago. Germania was the name for the tribes living above Roman Empire and has nothing to the Germans as mordern nation. Only Italy and England call Germany - Germany. Why ? Because there were no tribes called like Germans . There also were not like Polans tribe , this is artificial name for Lechs or Lędzianie. Just check the name of Poland in Iranian , Turkish , Armenian or Hungarian and read about tribe Lendzenoi which was known across entire Europe in IX century.
The Ashanti took the Golden Stool from Ntim Gyakere(the King Denkyira) during the battle of Feyiase of which the Asantes won.Therefore the original and current stool was from Denkyira.
It sucks. Even if you were to go back in time to warn them, I'm not sure how they could've avoided their fate. The divide and conqueror technique is just too effective against Africa.
It took the British 100 years so subdued Ashants It took then another 100 years before they can set their feet in Kumasi, which was the ASHANTI ancient capital It wasn’t 70 years
Just watched the video on swahili city states and then moved to this video. Only then I realized how mismatched the relation between the quality of your videos is compared to your number of subscribers. Looking forward to watch your other videos and watch your channel and community grow. You make amazing content about topics with way too less publicity. Keep it up

Rossia, which has nothing to do with Rus', and received its name at best in the 18th century, nevertheless, brazenly lays claim to the historical heritage of Rus', created 800 years earlier. However, Muscovy history is sewn to the history of Rus' with white threads and is completely falsified. In the bloody swamp of Muscovy slavery, and not in the harsh glory of the Norman era, stands the cradle of Rossia. Changing the names and dates, we see that the policies of Ivan III and the policies of the modern Moscow Empire are not just similar, but identical... Rossia was born and brought up in the disgusting and humiliated school of Mongol slavery. She became strong only because she was unsurpassed in the skill of slavery. Even when Rossia became independent, it continued to remain a country of slaves. Rossia's policy is unchanged. Rossian methods and tactics have changed and will change, but the main goal of Rossian policy - to conquer the world and rule in it - is and will remain unchanged. Moscow pan-Slavism is just one form of conquest. Ps, check out your knowledge please! Rusyn, any of several East Slavic peoples (modern-day Belarusians, Ukrainians, and Carpatho-Rusyns) and their languages. The name Rusyn is derived from Rus (Ruthenia), the name of the territory that they inhabited. The name Ruthenian derives from the Latin Ruthenus (singular), a term found in medieval sources to describe the Slavic inhabitants of Eastern Christian religion (Orthodox and Greek Catholics) living in the grand duchy of Lithuania and, after 1569, in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Rusyn-inhabited territories in those states had from the 10th to the 14th century belonged to several principalities referred to collectively as Kievan Rus. The Latin term Ruthenus (plural Rutheni) is the equivalent of the Slavic Rusyn (plural Rusyny), meaning “an inhabitant of the land of Rus.”
Good video but wrong 😂 Wrong information.

Considering the territory of the Kingdom was mostly located in current day Angola I think it's a little bit weird you mention the Belgian Congo twice. I know the atrocities are famous but still. I think it would be better to describe this history as part of Angolan history. The territory of the Kongo kingdom just comes short of scratching the area where Kinshasa was going to be founded later as the capital of the Belgian Congo.
No it’s covered only NORTHERN Angola! Not the whole modern borders (which came about after the Scramble) KONGO was Northern Angola, Western DRC, all of R. of Congo and Southern Gabon
@@yusefnegao You’re confusing the KK’s borders with their sphere of influence. The Mbundu and other adjacent ethnic groups were a vassal state with their own monarchs so if we only count proper Bakongos, they’re not even the majority in N. Angola
yep, first war on record, mountain folk vs. lowland folk, happens again and again thru time, even songs about it such as One Tin Soldier in 60s ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AAe4oyRkLdY.htmlsi=11rcKWDNGglep7HE
I find it likely, or at least more than possible that while the Mycenaeans were involved in siege and plunder in other lands their slaves back home rose up and over threw their rulers, hince the Dorians were already there etc. Is a very good theory for at that time there was much raiding around the coasts etc. giving sufficient time for such an uprising, with most or part of the fighting men of Mycenae being gone at the time.
Why do most of the ancient pharaonic names bear remarkable semblance to names of kings of Akan royals in Ghana, West Africa? I taught ancient egyptian were magical flying White Greeks who came into africa (egypt) to build pyramids rather than building them in their own land (weirdly there is no pyramids in arabia or Greece, but in Nubia(Sudan there is 255 pyramids which is more than the 118 pyramids in Egypt). Hmm something is fishy 🤔 1.Pharaoh Khufu =Akuffu or Kufuor (both presidents of Ghana from the Akan tribe) 2. Pharaoh Tutankhamun= Tutu Ankamah (royal Akan name) ( as in Osei Tutu) 3. Pharaoh Akhenaten = Akhenten (royal Akan name) (as in Oti Akhenten) 4. Ankh Ra= Ankhra (Ankra) (typical Akan name as in Twumasi Ankra) The list is endless. Ancestors of the Akans say they migrated from Egypt to present day Ghana through Timbuktu. their kings have been saying this since time immemorial. Sankhara(Mentuhotep III ) looks like Thomas Sanakra Name who was a African.
Didn’t they themselves I.e. the chiefs and the kings, sold their people into slavery? Selling people became more profitable to them. They traded war prisoners with the Portuguese, really? those people were sold into slavery. Interestingly they too owned slaves. They sold slaves into Jamaica. Half of the Jamaican slaves were from Akan/Ashanti tribe. I am not impressed although I have Akan/Ashanti in my DNA. Hmmm! Wickedness. They are some of the people that cause blacks to be hated all over the world.
Lech- Lenkija ;) (Lenkai yra Liaxai = Poland) learn old Lithuanian and you will know more ;) by the way RUS - is Ruthenian (Dnepr basin) and what you call Rus+sian it is finougric tribes , modern day talking in slavic language and thats all. Real RUS, is half of Belarus, and Ukraine + small part of modern Russia. Sorry, but it is true, in reality, big part of russians is northen Finic and Uralic people. Know your roots!
