Why has Africa never developed any great culture or civilization?

Why has Africa never developed any great culture or civilization?

Dey dindunuffin.

Has Europe?

Egypt.
Carthage.

You're to have to specify sub-saharan africa because of Egypt

Because the living conditions didn't favor intelligence it favored running faster than the lion.

Yeah the question should be why hasn't Sub-Saharan Africa developed any civilization on its own

Yes, I meant sub-saharan africa

Mali
Nubia
Great Zimbabwe
Ethiopia

Now fuck off

OP said GREAT culture or civilization.

they're stone age tier

>great zimbabwe
>not great
its even in the name dumbo

>this is stone age

K

Egypt was developed by Saharans

What about Plato?

Benin, Congo, Ethiopia, Carthage, Egypt, Axum, Ghana, Mali, Meroe. Zanzibar Sultanate,

>this is stone age
no, its a plastic model sitting on a tile floor

OP should be clearer.

Out of those only Egypt and Carthage are GREAT civilizations.

...

same reason europeans didn't: they're an objectively inferior race

>Ruins are not real

K

but not sub-saharans

>Ruins are not real
plastic models are not ruins
they are plastic models
come on user

Thats actually look nice
post more architecture

>Sub-Saharan Africa

Kingdom of Kush, D'mt and Kingdom of Aksum.

East Africa was unironically more advanced than Scandinavia at the time.

...

>Being this dense

The model is what the ruins looked like before it was ruins

I know your trolling but cmon do a better job

Lets assume that's true, completely ignoring Mali for example, so what?

Afroasiatic civilization was important and made incalculable contributions to humanity before being conquered by the Romans. Phonecians gave us the alphabet and Classical Western Civilization was really just the Greeks picking up where the Egyptians left off, improving and expanding upon the work that they pioneered.

Sub Saharan Africa has the twin handicaps of extreme geographic isolation, cut off from the other Eurasian cultures by the Sahara desert, along with an ecosystem which doesn't lend itself to easily domesticated species, do not only is trade difficult, there's little to actually trade, so these societies remained as hunter-gatherer generalist societies and never had the economic infrastructure to promote labor specialization.

There's some unique churches and palaces

I'll post what I got

...

Just saying that the African continent had only 2 noticeable civilizations.

If we're going by "black" Cushite/Negroid civilizations, there are 0. They remained as primitive as the barbarian Celts in Europe, never really progressing much.

Mali
Benin
Great Zimbabwe
Numidia
Egypt

Can't really count Carthage can you. Settled by phoenicians.

Here's another picture of the same palace recreated

>Just saying that the African continent had only 2 noticeable civilizations.
funny how that puts it on the same level as europe and asia then

>There are 0

Absolutely not true, They had Nubia with multiple cities and an empire, and they had Ethiopia too, also Mali.

Egypt was black, there is so much evidence for it now that racists have to start saying Ethiopians and Somalians are not black to claim Egypt since they are both related to the Badarians and fit well, craniometrically and genetically, into Ancient Egypt's population

geocities(.)ws/nilevalleypeoples/

>a collection of tribes and small villages is now an empire

Here's dungur

Zimbabwe ruins.

Yohannes the IV palace

...

You are such a fucktard

>small villages


Nubians had cities while there were no cities in Europe (except maybe Greece) in 2000 bc, you retarded fuck, Ethiopia and Mali had cities too.

>small vilages and tribes
back to /pol/

Here's the Gondor Castle complex

and yet darkest africa never did

>"great" as a measurement

Spooks

Spooks everywhere

Another of the castle complex

Nubians are as dark as humans can get

>Carthage
>Great
>Civilization

PUNICS GET OUT OFF MY BOARD

DELENDA EST

If this is what their villages looked like they were doing pretty fucking well

truly, House Solomon are the true successors of the throne of Israel

Land of Punt

you obviously don't know what darkest africa is

Nice goal post shifting.

truly, house Solomon certainly over more territory than the historical Solomon

hostile environment, isolated location and shitty diet won't do any good for your culture

Great is relative, if we're comparing to Europe, India, or China, none of the stuff ITT other than Egypt is remotely notable and are just big mud hut regional trading posts

next

Aristotle was black

Machiavelli was black

Nothing compares to Rome or China.

Aksum became such an important big mud hut regional trading post at its height that the Persians considered it a great power.

That sort of thing can happen when you control the flow of Indian spices into Europe.

>Nubia conquers Egypt and Jerusalem

>Nothin but a big mud hut trading post bro

K

Why do stormtards take 50's Tarzan movies and Animal Planet as historical guides?

>Europe

What part of Europe though?

Saddest thing is that this mindset is so ingrained insanity that it will never go away no matter how well Africa does.

Look at how Asia rose to developed heights and still have to deal with people's bullshit. Lol news stations still use China/asia scare baiting to get views and blow shit up.

Using your standards we'd be comparing the Germanic tribes to Tang era China

The US is greater than both. In a war between the Roman Empire and the US, Americans would BTFO their legions with a few B2 bombers.

Why we're the North American natives so much less successful than their South American counterparts?

are you implying that china is not more often not being deceptive and aggressive?

>Rhodesia so butthurt about the Great Zimbabwe existing that they say Asians built it and threaten any archeologist who tries to tell the truth
kek

Because they're fucking idiots

People have repeatedly posted African architecture in this thread and they've got nothing to counteract it. You'll can see them trying to use the same talking point of "hurr mudhuts" when they've literally just been proven wrong.

you just posted a bunch of rudimentary formed sticks and mud though

You just proved his point dummy

oh, so he posted mud huts to say it was ironic people claimed african architecture was mud huts?

is that it?

>Hut

Aside from that, there's nothing wrong with mud & straw as a building material when you live on the edge of treeless desert.

No he said that people may try to use the same talking point of "hurr mudhut", meanwhile you come along and call the structures in the picture mudhuts when you can clearly see that the buildings are more than rudimentary sticks and mud.

Do you want to tell me that the Great Mosque of Djenné, in fact the city of Djenné itself, is just a mud hut or mud hut city?

That's literally what it is. They have to rebuild it every year because the rainy season washes all the mud away.

Because it's often distorted so the cases were that is the case are indistinguishable from the cases that are just media hysteria and "80's Japan is gonna rule the world scare mongering but China" edition.

you don't 1:1 compare two groups idiot.

>the rainy season of timbuktu

Why not? They are both formidable powers.

>Holy
>Roman
>Empire
>Not Holy, Roman, or Great
its even in the name dumbo

Nigger that's Mud-Age

yes

>/pol/ gets btfo with facts everytime they ask this question
>have to add "great" as a qualifier and proceed to dismiss any examples through an arbitrary and subjective personal judgement just to look like they have an argument

they are literally building military base islands in a scheme to grab land in the pacific you dolt

>A bunch of niggers zerg rush into civilization
Wow, guess that makes Bantu in South Africa great conquerors then

>A bunch of niggers zerg rush into civilization
This is literally what the Romans did tho.

Must we have this thread everyday?

Holy shit, you nigger dick-sucking faggot are you blind?
That """Great""" Mosque is LITERALLY made of MUD. Therefore, it is seen with the same disdain that simple mudhuts are. Actually competent civilizations learn how to make their buildings out of more sturdy materials.

>Kingdom of Kush
North Nubians are similar to Upper Egyptians; about 60% eurasian. South Nubians (like modern-day South Sudanese) are negroid nilotics though.

>D'mt and Kingdom of Aksum.
Ethiopians are like 40-50% Eurasian mixed.

For pre-colonial truly black african states, look up Mali, Songhai, Ashanti and others. pic related

this

I don't recall the Romans migrating into actually civilized lands begging for gibs and trashing the place, not building anything of worth on their own, still relying on the people that they seek to genocide for living in a nation that they (not the niggers of course) built.

You w0t m8?

Ethiopians arent negroid

I don't get it, what's so special about this city in your picture. Looks pretty basic. Am I supposed to be impressed that Nogs could even create any kind of societal organization at all?

Then you don't know the Roman history.
