    Akan is not only Asante twi.
    The kromanti language sounds more of Fante (mfantse) than any of the akan language. But I do get everyone, Asante twi and fante, are more or less like the same language spoken with different accent.
    But again, in kromanti you hear a mixture of twi, Fante, Bono which all makes up the akan as a language.
    ... and oh, there's a town in present day Ghana (Cape-Coast) called kormantse

    Coromantee or Kromanti is derived from the name of the Ghanaian slave Fort Courmantyne built by the British between 1635 and 1645 in the Central Region of Ghana. Coromantee is also the English name originally given to Ashanti slaves in Jamaica.

My paternal grandfather was from Me Kore Na Mantse Etsifi just like Asowa Antsefo became Asuantsefo - and pronounced Ashanti by the British. Kormantse was not named by the British because of the fort built by them. The small fishing town was named after an event that happened between the asoantsefo and the mfantsefo. Please research the story and know the truth. I am a typical Ekumfinyi ba and our ancestral stories must be told properly please.

    Interesting origin story as it sounds very similar to that of the Kalabari of Nigeria of the Izon family both have the killing of an elephant by their founding father. Also there is Kru/ama/ town in Kalabari land. Kru and Kro is perhaps only a phonetic differentiation. I have always believed that the coasts of West Africa are one family, fisher men are often semi nomadic and follow the fish or the water the same way a shepherd follows the pasture. The matrilineal element is also a factor, though Kalabari follow both matrilineal or patrilineal descent dependent on the level of marriage like the Akan there is a strong matrilineal culture in the Izon in general!!!!

    The Europeans banned ALL Ashanti or any Akans from going to the Caribbean or Central America in 1800's.
    1. They were replace by Igbo women/Nigeria ( milder & agreeable tribe ;"will never kill their babies to win a war" #damn).
    2. Indians & Chinese to do the slave labor.
    3.Germans & Irish as white human shield ( whites were killed on site)
    = The Ashanti were a nightmare; BUT THE WON. France became broke, sold the Louisiana purchase to their friends the USA, after they lost the war in Haiti; most Europeans fled the Caribbean & their profits dried up. which why slavery ended. = nothing to do with humanity! The massacre of 1804 also sent shock waves because THEY also order mulattoes to die.#war
    MILITARY
    they setup 2 military camps. Suriname + Jamaica: Orders were given out only from those 2 places because they were "secured" from spies (Twi coded) or informants.
    Some of the Orders were : 0 birthrate, sabotage the crops, kill the European farmers, overthrow the European military.
    A. Military camouflage = was also introduced to the Europeans, British solider often complain Africans dress like trees & bushes |and would suffer heavy losses (it aint the Marines or brigade)
    B. They also used Vodoo was use as a propaganda (using fake informers) tool scare white solider not to fight ✮ #lol ( they are still scared of it today)
    C: the British blame the Ashanti for the PROLONGING slavery because they order a zero birth rates, cut profits, and want to enslave whites (LOL)
    ⬛️⬛️⬛️⬛️✨👑The BADDEST👑✨⬛️⬛️⬛️⬛️
    FYI: there is tons of information on Akans Europe. there was no such thing as "dark Africa" continent. The Europeans knew what each tribe is capable of, their temperament. their class structure, average pop. size. it took them a while to plan & rob the gold 👑✨ ... the last war THE BRITISH came in with the 1st " machine gun" just to fight the imperial class."they also came back to get the golden stool" but failed.. SO THEY burn down the palace, burnt the wood carvings centuries old and JUST TORCHED THE entire kingdom out of spite. #realbeastofahuman

    Fort Koromanti is an English Slave Fort built in Ghana in the 17th century. Coramantee is spelt so many different ways but its a mixture of languages Twi Fante Bono. Maybe just one or two Maroons left in Ja. speak or should i say know a few words. The language is now distorted in Maroon town over the years pronounciation and words are changed. Its sad this was not handed down. Cudjoe and his siblings spoke Koromanti when the overseer is listing his 'enslaved' he would write - eg. Koromantee beside Africans who came from that port. Its not an ethnicity the English mixed up everything. Do a DNA to find out where your foreparents are from i am 41% Nigerian all along i thought i was mostly Ghanian i am only 8%.

    Dog je moet nog veel leren, in die tijd waren der geen immigranten in Ghana toen waren er alleen Ashanti's en Fanti's (AakanNdyuka) roots. Er waren ook terug gestuurde slaven van brazilie komaf naar Ghana verscheept, vandaar dat je in ghana veel braziliaanse vlaggen tegenkomt.

    Weet je hoeveel echte Ghanezen (Ashanti's) er zijn weggevoerd meer dan 40 miljoen en dat alleen met Fort Amsterdam. We hebben ongeveer 57 forten in Ghana staan Fort Elmina is daar een van

      Real Ghanaian you say?? Who is a real Ghanaian?? Cut the crap man !! Ashantis just like every tribe in Ghana today came from somewhere across the Motherland, none of us came from out the soils, okay?? The earliest group of people known to arrive in Ghana by Ghanaian historians are the Gonjas people ........... Go and learn your history again Mr Asante man !!!

    Ben het deels met je eens. Alleen denk ik niet dat mijn roots in Ghana liggen. Wel hebben mijn voorouders in Ghana geleefd, net als dat we nu in Amerika, of Europa leven. Dit wil niet zeggen dat we daar van origine vandaan komen.
    Check mijn andere comments onder deel 2 van deze video om te zien waarom ik dit zeg. Peace.

    This is a microcosmic view of a really large socio-cultural matter! That town near Cape Coast called Kormanten is just a nickname. A pseudonym. Kormantin has a significance that is linked to the Ashanti state. Disclosing the details is tantamount to treason. So anyone who wants to know the real meaning of Kormanten and what it means can inbox me.
