I thought I would be long passed on into the afterlife, before I would get a chance to see or witness this much truth being revealed!!! I can't appreciate it enough!!!❤❤❤ I'm so grateful!!!

As a Zulu I am so PROUD of my People and our History.King Shaka Revolutionised the Military Strategy in the 19th Century.He introduced the ox-horn formation in military attack.Using this Strategy the Zulus inflicted the Brits' only Defeat in their Colonial history in Afrika.This was the Battle of Isandlwana in 1879.
The ox-horn military offensive was employed by the Germans during WW2 when they attacked Russia.Mind you, this was MORE than One HUNDRED Years after King Shaka introduced it!

I AM a proud, devout, and astute Pan-Africanist, born and raised in the the African Diaspora, in the states. I love ALL OF AFRICAN PEOPLES AND OUR CULTURES, BOTH ANCIENT AND PRESENT. There are a lot of cultures and nations of African People that will not be touched on or covered on these YouTube channels. It would take us at least 2X the amount of time our True History has been covered in darkness (at least) just to bring it all into the light. And with our present-day mindset, most of us globally COULD NOT HANDLE IT.
But it pleases me greatly to see the blessings of so many of us awakened enough to be viewing these video pieces and commenting on the subject matter as we've seen!
Thank You All!
Ngiyawabonga kakhulu yote!

You didn't mention the Queendom of Queen Nzinga of Manapatapa, who fought against the arab and european slave trade. She declared Her Queendom freedom for all Afrikans who came there. A movie should be made about her.

There is one reoccurring factor which African countries should bear in mind. Every time they decide to interact with Europeans it leads to detrimental consequences!!!

It is so sad how people have erased the majority of this history from the minds of recent generations

Africa is richly blessed and it’s historical stories needs to be told

[alvinbingham]

Thank you for this rich history of Africa. It would be nice to have the stolen artifacts returned to the people.

[marinaoosthuizen]

To me Africa is the most wonderful continent. No matter what who tries to break this continent.

[Nomerci]

When you let your enemy tell and continue to tell your story you will stay over looked

[gracegibson]

Quite interesting and informative. We never knew that our ancestors, were taken out of suc h powerful and historic backgrounds. Makes me feel so proud, being an African descendant.

[iternityhuman]

We need to create
major movies & bring this rich African history to the surface.

[wallej]

Africa and her children has been through a lot, and it’s Africa time and her children to rise Again.

[robertholmes]

This is what should be taught in schools. We of African race have done many contributions to this world and should be acknowledged !!!

[misterjuro]

Wow, I had no idea about the fascinating history of Oyo in West Africa! It's incredible to learn how a seemingly 'weak' state in the early 1500s evolved into such a powerful empire by the 1550s. The cooperation between the Alafin and the Oyo Mesi, along with their expansion into the Atlantic trade system, is truly remarkable. History is full of incredible stories, and this is one of them!
