With so much history, I wonder why all of this is totally non-existent in mainstream curricula. Thank you again for all of this information.
It's our pleasure
I've been saying this for years. History curriculum in African schools, especially Nigeria, needs a massive overhaul and update. We also need to start teaching African history to our children from a non Euro-centric, white washed perspective.
Part of neo-colonialism. African historians should start writing children's versions of the stories.
this is the most amazing channel ever... thnx
Glad you enjoy it!
Great history. At Kanem Press, we hope to amplify the news in and around Kanem region and beyond.
Great video about great history thanks.
The information in the video is true

You're welcome!
Can we also learn about the origins of the Fulanis and how they were able to conquer a lot of kingdoms
Watch our episode on the Sokoto Caliphate
Thank you Dr. Bunmi. Where there any African kingdoms that operated on indigenous belief systems such as: Nyame, Amma and others?
It's far past the time when the peoples of the world should learn and respect the place of the African peoples in history

Hello. Can someone shed light on how Africa got her name? I'm hearing different stories. Came from Romans, named after Leo Africanus, Phoenician name. Is there something I can read to answer this from a good source other than Wikipedia?
Hi friend, watched to the end!
Thank you so much!
Hi, great content! Just one important correction. Idris b. Ali Alawma ruled from 1564 to 1596, and not later. See the work of Dierk Lange, John E. Lavers, Hamidu Bobboyi, Hadrien Collet, and Rémi Dewière.
Us African cannot claim any Islamic kingdom in Africa! That would be a insult to our ancestors and shame upon us.
I don't get why Islam is in here in Africa
Proud to be Muslim
@@itsbeyondme5560 Do some digging. Im not mad at present day Muslims except in Mauritania who do modern day slavery. The answer is raids, force conversation, and building empire on selling slaves.
@@mache2784 No . get out troll.
@@itsbeyondme5560 it doesn't hurt me to be mean hearted only you, my friend. Those are the roots of Islam in Africa from my research. Why do you think I came to this video? In no way did I say that is how Islam is spreading today, because it still is. If you want to refute my claims and the ones made in the video, I would be happy to discuss it in a mannerly way with you.
So both the Christianity and Islam are military religions and doctrines nothing to do with being peaceful
Absolutely!
Christians never went on a crusade in Africa that was the first African Muslims. Im not mad at present day Muslims except in Mauritania who do modern day slavery. The colonist had something way more demonic in mind, and I would argue that it had nothing to do with forcing the population to become Christain.
they also are about putting the people under a figurehead who deems themselves enlightened and basically runs the show (i.e. Sultan, bishop, pope, cardinal, sheikh)
Maaaannnnnn tell me about her wisedome is galore but the conversion proff of why we feel so inseparable & doctrinated us like a program they pillaged everything
@@themeaningisalwaysvague8671 Read the old Testament tells you how to treat slaves, destroy entire families. Constantine converted to Christianity using the words in this sign you will conquer. The sign being the cross Pope Nicolas issued the Papal Bull after 1492 Portugal free to enslave all Africans and Natives. Islam over 1K years before enslaved so many Africans that some nationalities, would deliberately disfigure themselves so they would be worthless. Good news Iraq has ditched the dollar your God will be put to the test by my Gods and my ancestors. We shall see who will win in the next 24 months evil basket.
What was the religion of these people before invaded by Christians and Muslims? Please?
I think hometeam history spoke on their indigenous belief system
Animism
@@fromabove422 correct!
Thank you my sister for you research your Africa history forgotten Thank you for my family history teaching that I'm from ajuran empire 13th century 17th century horn of Africa Muslim empire Somalia kingdom ajuran empire for all country that for all country Africa and Asia gareen dynasty ajuran empire
Amazing! Thanks for sharing
I am tangale by tribe from gombe state my people are part of the kenem Bornu empire, our kings are still called Mai till this day, and we where never converted to Islam all through the period jihad conquest in Nigeria, we majorly christians, traditionalist and a few Muslims.
So would the word Mai have been borrowed from the Kanuri? I am thinking of tribes in neighboring Cameroon borrowing many key words from the Fulani just as many tribes in neighboring Chad borrowed key words from Chadian Arabian. Many of these key words have to do with economy or religion and the borrowing shows the sharing of culture.
Me, I grew up in Chad and have lived more than half my life there, and married a Chadian woman who is half Sara, half Arabic. So I have a rich perspective. And I actually travelled through Gombe many times during the 3 years that I went to high school in Jos. I first traveled through Gombe in 1972 when the wide, smooth, paved highway in that region was brand-new, it was beautiful, especially for me having put up with the bad roads in Chad in that era.
KANURIS are Muslims don't talk something u don't know
As Chadian I got right to clarified some info kanem is means south in Zaghawa tribe who established the kingdom which kanem ppl took over from the Zaghawa ppl but I don’t know whether u didn’t this or u just ignore the role of tribes that based in modern day Chad who played a big role for empowering the kingdom before further it expansion to modern day Nigeria history can’t be manipulate
The Origin of the Kanem Bornu is the Saifuwa dynasty. Zaghawa was a client of the dynasty and not a major constituent part of the state. The people that can justify origin of Kanem Borno are the kanembu. The other clients were the Bulala, the Bagirmi, the wadai, the Tubu, the Arab Bagara, the Tawariq, and the Hausa.
I know this because I'm a saifuwa myself!
@@dr.mmaudi8194
Yes these the truth
I'm from barnawi trip in Sudan
And we are saifuwa.
@@dr.mmaudi8194 I think the confusion partly arises in medieval Arabic sources referring to early Kanem as "Zaghawa" or a branch of the "Zaghawa". The "Zaghawa" might have been a broader term to Arab geographers and chroniclers in the 800s and 900s than it is today. But the Hausa refer to the Kanuri as Beriberi, which could be a sign of "Beri" or Bideyat origins still remembered. But early Kanem seems to owe more to the Tubu/Teda peoples
I’m Zaghawa and we call ourselves as a Beri
@@dr.mmaudi8194bilala kanem-bornou and kanori are cousins and they come from magomie
Thank you for this video.
Please, are the Kanuris and Yorubas related?
I want to know if Yorubas migrated to Borno before getting to the present day Yorubaland.
I believe that Yorubas and Hausas (not Fulanis ) are related somehow.
Yep we are descendants of the nok civilisation. Genetically Nigerians are basically the same people. We just let religion and ethnicity divide us.
@@Keddeadkedemption Thank you.
I know that about 2,500 years ago, Herodotus wrote about Ile-Ife ( formerly called Ule Ufe) acclaimed as the source of all Yorubas. History is deep.
@@Majority33 the British knew what they were doing when they created Nigeria. Divide and rule. They've left but we carry on the same issues. I'm Hausa and Hausa is full of Yoruba loan words and vice versa. We were African before we were anything else.
@@Keddeadkedemption In Nigeria, Yorubas are closely related to the Kanuris and the Hausas.
Kotoko Mafa Masa of Sao civilization then Kanem Bornu
But why didn't the Bornu or kanem leaders rule or is it because they will fight over the thrown
what is the name of the Sudanese warlord? and what brought him into the empire?
Thank you
Rabeh
Rabih ibn zubair. He was a follower of the Sudanese Mahdi and when they got decked by the British he migrated to Borno and destroyed it.
