I have been there. You better know how you are getting home. It is very sad what has happened in the last 5 years in Mali.

I'm 60 and I remember the elders use to say " I will knock you back to Timbuktu.,". I don't think they ever forget where they came from

I heard older Black people use to say i will knock you back to Tibuktu, but didn't know it was in Africa. Wonder did they know.

Interesting. I like randomly scrolling over earth on Google earth, and just happened across this. It was very captivating! In the middle of nowhere, sizeable city, and very clearly had some history.

This video has so many errors I don’t know where to start… 1. Morocco did not hold Timbuktu by the Time of the French Invasion; Timbuktu was held by Tidjaniya Caliphate during the French Invasion and the Bambara Empire prior to that 2. Whilst the Original founders are Tuareg, The largest Ethnic Group is Songhay; Tuaregs were largely assimilated or expelled from the Region or Left to the North under numerous successive kingdoms 3. NEARLY 100% of your images of Timbuktu or The Djingareyber Mosque is of an entirely different mosque…. You posted the Great Mosque of Djennè more in a video about Timbuktu than Timbuktu itself… 4. The 1990 Tuareg Rebellion wasn’t seated at Timbuktu but in Gao; The modern Separatist are seated in Kidal Just some of the millions of glaring errors with this video

You had me confused from the beginning. "Sorta like an ancient New York City" .....in that it's nothing like New York City. Then using a reference that made sense "A Mecca" only made the first comparison make less sense.

@mahdimehdi445 Yes, they were dissatisfied with each other . MOORS WAS FIGHTING MOORS , IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME. , REMEMBER THE MOORS HAD JURISDICTION OF THE MAGHREB ( Moorish territory) all the way to the Americas ( The ALL MAGHREB) the farthest West ! From Libya to the Americas was Moorish territory.. Libya, Algeria, Tuina, Morocco, Senegal, Mali, Mauritania, Niger , North South, and Central America is Moorish territory, under the Moorish Empire ! Not counting Spain. Portugal, and Southern France! ( The Iberia Peninsula ) And other territory! The Moors had the largest Empire in the world . 🌎 You didn't know that the Americas was once connected to Africa ( so-called Africa ) it was one landmass , but it wasn't called Africa, the First True and Divine for the whole continent Amexem ( lands of the GODS , land of the Holy people.. As I've said before, there are many types of Moors . Moorish is a civilization. Moor means Lord ( Amazighs, Imazighens) mean [ born of Noble and Royal birth !]
