Greatest Conqueror Kings Of Africa Part II

[@glennpeterson2477]

If you want to talk about the greatest African conquer kings, then you need to look at it in terms of Military Victories & Territory Expansion period. Here is my list: Thutmose III, Piankhi, Sonni Ali Ber, & Mai Idris Alooma, Axumite Negus Kaleb should get an honorable mention.

[@DaduaMaiga]

Where's King Kaleb? When he heard of the Christian community being oppressed in Yemen, he raised an army from Aksum and the crossed the Red Sea annexing Yemen and Arabia and bringing it under African control. Also, Netflix has just released an official trailer of the Hausa Queen Amina.

Those wondering why he said he isnt Shaka Zulu its because in those times, it was custom to take as a "surname" the name of your father. For example if you are John and your father is Samson, then you will be John kaSamson. Zulu was the founder of their clan. Most Zulu surnames came about being named after a founder of a clan, or sometimes an event or something peoole of that clan did

Thanks for sharing the fruits of your work with us! I hope to see you add King Sekhukhune I to the next video. He wasn’t only a masterful tactician who used his knowledge of the land and guerilla tactics to his advantage, but he also was a great diplomat who expanded his influence well into areas controlled by his enemies British colonists, Dutch settlers and the Portuguese in Mozambique. All his enemies (including Britain) suffered humiliating defeats at his hands and feared him. It eventually took armies of the British, the Boers and 10 000 Swazis to overthrow him. His story is not as well known as that of Shaka because of how the Marota/BaPedi kingdom was dismantled after his fall. His heir was killed and so was his half-brother who had a claim to the throne. The British and Boers did not want to risk a rebellion from a united nation.

[@menamilad3199]

Why though? I am assuming you really mean the relationship the Middle East has with regions of Africa. I guess I can tell you this. The history of Eastern Africa became linked with the Arabian peninsula. As trade flourished between the Horn of Africa and the Arabian peninsula there started being migrations in between the two regions and influence/mixing. One good example is the relationship between Ethiopia and Yemen. Yemen was used to be a Ethiopian colony and Ethiopia had a big impact on Islam. The Swahili’s have also traded with southern Arabia as well as the Somalis

Don’t forget Emperor Menelik II of Ethiopia.. King of Kings conquering lion of the tribe of Judah. He defeated the invading Italian army at Adwa in March of 1896. The first defeat of the Berlin conference and a colonial European army. This shifted the entire paradigm of so called European supremacy and stopped it dead in its tracks. Adwa should be celebrated by all Africans and oppressed people as a symbol of good over evil...david over Goliath. African strategy tactics skills wisdom and the grace of god. When the Emperor went to the battle he had Gods ark of the covenant and the priests who as always follow him to battle. The empress Taitu also had an army of her own and played a critical role during the battle. Before then the last African army that defeated the Europeans was likely Queen Amanranes of Nubia who defeated the Roman armies.

[@Zeyede_Seyum]

[@chubbymoth5810]

There have been plenty times Europeans got beaten up by African kingdoms after Amanranes. Until the early 19th century, not much colonisation was going on. Most claims were based on fortified trade ports. Cutting out the middle man in the slave trade was common practice that would often lead to retaliation. War is bad for trade and if the cost are not covered by the loot, wars are over fairly fast.

Lalibela), Emperor Lalibela of Ethiopia (reigned c. 1185-1225) directed the hewing of 11 churches out of living rock-a stupendous monument to Christianity. A pious man an lifelong devotee of the church, he was made a saint by the Ethiopian Orthodox Church after his death. The Muslim conquest of Egypt in 640 C.E. put Christian Ethiopia in a defensive position. Because the Ethiopian Orthodox Church remained subordinate to the Orthodox Church in Alexandria, and Egypt had become a Muslim country, Ethiopians became suspicious and resentful of the control Egypt had on the appointment of their Christian bishop (abun). Muslim Egyptians also controlled Jerusalem and had the power to expel Ethiopian pilgrims to their holiest of cities. So Ethiopians began to claim power over Egypt through control of the Nile. During the Crusades the Ethiopian emperor Lalibela (1190-1225)-who built a new Jerusalem in Ethiopia, safe from Muslim occupation in magnificent, underground rock-hewn churches-threatened retribution by diverting the Tekeze River from its pathway north into Sudan (where it becomes the Atbara and then joins the Nile).

He is sometimes considered to have been the founder of the Ethiopian state. FAST FACTS Facts & Related Content Died: 1344? See all facts and data → The earliest Ethiopian chronicle tends to support this hypothesis, for it concerns Amda Seyon’s reign. Moreover, the earliest known examples of the written Amharic language are hymns praising him. His image is reminiscent of that of Henry V of England in his transformation from a youthful carouser to an audacious warrior and ruler. Most of his wars were against the Muslim kingdoms to the southeast, which he was able to fight and generally defeat one by one, despite their plans to unite against him. Hence, he substantially enlarged his kingdom by gradually incorporating a number of smaller states.

The Bab Dukkala Masjid: Founded by the Fulani Female "Saint" of Morocco. By Elijah Shabazz (Ilyas Shabazz Bah) My recent quest through Morocco started with a single sentence I read earlier this year in the John O. Hunwick's english translation of the 17th Century Timbuktu writer Es Saadi's arabic manuscript entitled "Tarikh es Soudan". Mr. Hunwick bypassed translating the portion of the book treating the history of Morocco. However, he noted one interesting historical fact. British Scholar John O. Hunwick states that according to Es Saadi the Mother of Saadian ruler Ahmed Al Mansur (1) was a Fulani "Concubine". I wanted to read for my self whether Mr. Hunwick's (who ironically died this year) statement was one of truth or another European re-telling of history, which fits all Blacks into the mould of slaves, savages, concubines, etc,. So, I set out to find a copy of Es Saadi's Arabic manuscript for myself. I was able to locate it at the Schomburg research center in Harlem. After scanning through hundreds of pages of micro-film I came to the statement I was looking for. I will write in it's Arabic followed by it's English translation. Es Saadi notes the following in his history of Morocco : (تنبية، اما امير السلطان مولا احمد الذهبي فهو ابن مولا محمد الشيخ ابن مولا محمد امغار الشريف بن عبد الرحمن و امه جارية اسمها لل عودة ابوها فلاني) As for the Sultan Ahmad Almansur adh-dhabi, he is son of Muhammad Ash-Sheikh son of Mawla muhammad Amghar the sharieff son of Abdur Rahman and his mother "Jariyat" her name Lala 'awdat her father Fulani. (Note: Lala 'awdat and Layla Massaoudat are variations of the same name) The key term that I transliterated and not translated is the word in question that lead to my search. That term is "Jariyat". This term has several meanings in different context. Among them are female neighbor, girl, young girl, or female slave/concubine. French translator E. Leroux comes to the same conclusion as his Brithish counterpart Mr. Hunwick. In his French translation of Tarikh Es Sudan it reads: "Sa mére etait une concubine" (his mother was a concubine). However, he adds this footnote to his translation: "Ou, plus exactment, une esclave rendue mére. On sait que l'enfant né d'un patron de et son esclave est parfaitement légitime aux yeux des musulmans et se trouve affranchie, par et fait." Alluding to a "Muslim" custom that the child of a slave mother and a Father of the ruling class, still gives the legitimacy to the throne. Since 17th century chronicler Es Saadi, doesnt explain his usage of the term "Jariyat", one if left to draw conclusions about its usage. Nor does, Es Saadi give us more information of her Father except that he is a Fulani. The status of the Father is key to the daughter. If the Father was a slave, then the daughter will be a slave as well. As I did additional research about the maternal side of Ahmad Al Mansur I came across information stating that his Mother was the "Well known Layla Mass'auda". This being "Well Known" doesn't fit the typical status of "concubine". Generally, a concubine is a lover of ruler relegated to home and oft-times hidden under secret. So that takes me to my journey across the Atlantic to Morocco itself. I'm sure I can find information there. After hitting a bump in the road searching for a library in Marrakech (2), I made my way to The National Library located in the Capitol City Rabat (3). It was there were I found the French Language book "Histoire Du Maroc" compiled by Coissac De Chavrebière a professor from Rabat. In this publication I found this most interesting and rewarding information; of which I was searching for nearly a year. It answers my question of why she is the "well known Leila Massouda" and something about her family. According to Histoure Du Maroc: (French text followed by English translation) "Aboul Abbbas, surnommé El Mansour, succéda sans opposition à son frère, tant la victoire lui assurait de prestige dans les villed et les tribus du Maroc. Fils de Mohammed ech-Chéikh El Mahdi, il avait pour mère Lella Messaouda, noble dame des Ouzguita et proche parente du caīd Azzouz dont la fortune fut grande sous ce règne. Messaouda, femme d'un rare mérite, aimait les lettres; pieuse et éclairée dans sa religion, elle fonda la mosquée de Bab Doukkala, à Marrakech, et en assura l'entretien de ses deniers, ainsi que le paiement des fonctionnaires attachés au culte de la mosquée. Elle mourut en 1590, vénérée comme une sainte." "Aboul Abbbas, nicknamed El Mansour, succeeded without opposition to his brother, as the victory assured him prestige in villed and tribes of Morocco. Son of Mohammed ash-Sheikh El Mahdi, he had to Messaouda mother Layla, noble lady of Ouzguita and close relative of Caid Azzouz whose fortune was greater during this reign. Messaouda, woman of rare merit, loved literature; pious and enlightened in his religion, she founded the Mosque of Bab Doukkala, Marrakech, and assured maintenance of its funds, as well as payment of civil servants attached to the worship of the mosque. She died in 1590, venerated as a saint." So there in Morocco the history of Layla Massouda (Lala 'awdat) states that she is of a noble family and is venerated as a Saint in Morocco. Which definitely doesn't fit the shade of meaning for "Jariyat" as "Slave girl/Concubine". This seems to be a tragic case of -not only a loss of meaning- in translation, but a loss of Stature! A Portrait of the Layla Massouda Masjid in the Layla (night). This journey to Rabat has given to me a whole new meaning of "Knowledge is key". In the Arabic language "Bab" means Door. I have walked pass and through Bab Dukkula throughout my stay in Marrakech but it's Door (Bab) was closed to me because I didnt have the key (knowledge). On the night of my return from Rabat, I was too impatient to wait until the morning to find the Masjid. Besides I returned to Marrakech just before Maghrib. I dropped my bags at the Hotel, asked for directions and made way straight to Bab Dukkala, a town that was walking distance from my hotel. As typical to my journey no find was easy. The Masjid I encountered was quite small. However, I made my prayer in it and afterwards used my Arabic to inquire if this was indeed the one built by Layla Massaouda. I asked an elder, and he informed that no it was not. It was actually the Grand Masjid, in the town. He told me ignore the next small Masjid I would encounter and "Tuduwa" (go straight) until I see the big Masjid.
