It is crazy to me that African Americans refuse to accept this ancestry! This is beautiful! This is excellence. Instead, they'd claim to be Israelites and native American
Strongly Agreed!! As an Afro Carribean Latino I want underrated African civilizations like The Malian and Songhai Empires, the various kingdoms and Empires of Ethiopia and Nubia (Aksum, Meroe, Kush, Ethiopia), the many Sultanates and city-states of the Kenya-Tanzania-Somalia area to get the love and attention they deserve and need.
They seriously need to make more movies and shows about them.A part of the African Americans doing that stems from those African civilizations being largely unknown in western media.
Please don't mistake those fools for all African-Americans, such as myself. They are a very, VERY, *VERY* small group of people who do not speak for the majority.
@@Malaika924 my comment was directed towards that particular group. Not the entire African American population…
@@Raccon_Detective. I completely agree.
Not all what a huge generalization I embrace my African ancestry
If only history books were this interesting
it's not real and not even interesting lol. Wanna know true history look at actual empires that EXIST AHAHAHAH
@@domtom9594 That is peak level recency bias.
You don't go to school to learn 😂 you go to government schools to be indoctrinated
He was so rich it's unimaginably, Blessed Be.
Thank you for sharing this with us
Many thanks for sharing.
I have some Malian DNA and wanted to just indulge in this beautiful history 🥹🥰 although my dominates are Cameroon, Nigerian and ivory coast
Seriously, more movies need to take place in Ethiopia, Mali, Kongo, Kush, etc. So many examples of great African civilizations to show how much Africans contribute to history with empires that could/did challenge the might of empires, including Rome with Nubia/Kush
No sorry, no African countries challenged the might of Rome. Carthage did but they looked middle eastern skin complexion not African & they were part of the meditative trade system. As well as Egypt.
Thank Sir
I just found that I have some Malian dna… 18% so I’m doing some research on this beautiful country ❤️❤️❤️
As do I , my grandmother was 15% Mali,, 40% Nigerian. Did you have Nigerian?
@@paperclip6993 Yes! 12%
Fun fact: the foundation of the Malian Empire by Sundjata Keita (Mansa Musa's great uncle) serves as the basis for the Lion King's plot.

Lots of trolls in this one, haters.
To this day you have people who don’t know anything about africas history. They think they were all in huts and never learned.
That's intentional. Race and racism were created just several centuries ago to facilitate exploitation of certain groups of people (including people who are niw widely regarded as being "white"). Bigotry has not only been an effective tool for facilitating the exploitation of "non-white" people, it's been an effective tool for getting people who are "granted whiteness" to accept lower qualities of life in exchange for illusory conceptions of white supremacy.
That is true. I’m from Brazil but lived in many countries.. yet, I know nothing about the Africa’s history :(
Racism has always been a system of power through propagated racial stereotypes.
To be fair the majority of Africans WERE living in primitive societies and clearly even more modern African societies weren't anywhere near advanced enough to stop the world from invading and conquering them.
THIS IS NICELY MADE. MAY I USE A FEW SECONDS OFF YOUR VIDEO TO COMPLETE A SHORT PROJECT AM WORKING ON? I WILL CREDIT YOU. THANKS!
Thank this opportunity
I wish they taught this kind of stuff in American schools
But, dont many Americans complain about how much history you already have to learn?
As a historian im all for more education but sometimes more, exspecaly whats not for your own country, is sometimes not good for students
What for? Teach it in Africa.
@@PerceptionVsReality333because teaching only European history leads to people thinking that that civilization is the only one worth praising or appreciating. All civilizations have contributed to where we are today. It also expands children’s minds
@@theromanorderI disagree, the more history we learn, the better. We also just go over the same things over and over in history classes. It would be far more interesting if history classes really taught world history instead of just European history.
@@theromanorder- I'm a Gen Xer, and my public school history curriculum was geared toward promoting white (specifically Anglo) superiority and American Exceptionalism. Of course "everything" can't be presented in K-12, but let's not pretend that curricula cannot be, and haven't been, structured to promote certain ideals and to intentionally exclude others.

That will be so aoemmee
wow that's was very interesting this history Africa Empire but i like it yup absolutely yes i love your history my dear brother father.

Très bonne vidéo, merci ! Je voudrais aussi avoir des informations sur la dame du lac, peut-être un épilogue : c'est une elfe, les elfes sylvains ont-ils donc, aidé à créer le royaume de Bretonnie afin qu'il soit mené par des hommes non corrompus grâce à l'eau du graal, et qui effectuent la volonté de la dame, par leur religion et la couronne suspecte, donné par la dame. Cela m'intéresse vraiment beaucoup. Parce que sinon c'est juste chaque roi suivant fait moins que celui précédent, et on arrive aux end times, sans parler des relations de la bretonnie avec toutes les autres factions, genre elfe sylvains, empire, une ville indépendante entre l'empire et bretonnie, comment cela se passe.... Et blablabla lol.
Merci beaucoup pour cette bonne vidéo, d'un possesseur de ta carte de l'Empire
Jealous
truly believe they got jealous of the rich history of that region so in order to try to rewrite the lavish image all they do is show you hunger kids from that area, but what's hidden must come to light.
There's literally a Portuguese map with Musa in the middle of it showing his important in the gold route
A lavish history of enslaving their fellow Africans and exploiting/selling them for profit.
@@xanderoptik
Yep.
I don't think that the starving children images are from what was the main part of the Mali Empire. Also, some people really did want help the starving children (in many cases not carrying anout the children in need in the U.S., which i have a lot to say about). But these were private organizations that helped and/or scammed people. The commercials and news segments didn't come from eurocentric governments.
Governments like the U.S. states just typically didn't teach much of any, or any, African history. And it wasn't a matter of jealousy- the curricula have been used to promote ongoing exploitation of "non-white" AND "white" people.
Well said
Does any ask how he got so rich.
Selling salt.
First to watch the video
Can't wait to see how angry this makes "certain" people LOOOOOOOOL
You know it will
Which is interesting because they never get upset when certain groups are represented by their worst stereotypes of minority. Whatever. Their empire is falling.
Personally, I'm tired of them and their poor sense of self (which they try to address by associating with group identities and considering themselves superior to other groups).
Wowowowooww so true i HATE when people don’t appreciate Wakanda. +10 Reddit Karma for you sir!😎

More powerful than Rome i bet
In what universe?
@@temistogena fake one
Since there are no roman writing, swords shields or even a helmet , just ruins. No scrolls, have you seen them , no you haven't. There are sculptures made in the 1400s by the Catholic Church. That moved from turkey to Rome Vatican was built in the 1400s note old Rome. Timbuktu has all its manuscripts.
Nah, not europes strongest.

You can cry if you want, we can even give you a bucket to pour your tears in if its too much.
Musa wasn’t black
Yes he was....
Why this is a video about History of Mali... with Fantasy imagery... They didn't look like that at all. This is African Lord of the Rings
That's how all of their videos look.
Not everything is fantasy in the video.
Yes it did, rements of these structures can still be found to today. Some these builds still stand after all this time e.g the mosques and other structures.
I don't know where you got the idea that Mali didn't look like that. I think your comment is a good example of poor education in the West or maybe it might just be because our history is very eurocentric.
I am an archaeology major and I think it is very poor that I had to do foreign history discipline at a tertiary level of education just to get any basic knowledge of non- Western history; With the exception of the biggest and most consequential non-european Civilizations and empires we don't hear anything about African civilisations, Middle Eastern civilisations, south Asian civilisations or even south American civilisations. we hear a bit about the East Asian Civilizations but still not a lot.
There are still historical buildings there you can go take a look at.
Mali was never this advanced.The entire story of the king gained popularity thru the eyes and publications of the writers in islamist countries of the time.
We have nothing else on this guy.
Prove it
@@dreamingradical show me any advanced structure or city in that area.
@@temistogenAnd what do you call "advanced" ?
He literally destroyed Egypt's economy during his pilgrimage.
Mail is a country my guy. The ancient mail empire cover so many countries in west Africa and that’s why they were advanced and had so many gold and diamonds.
