Africans Could Never Conquer Like Asians Or Europeans Why?

[Cush]

Asians had huge empires spanning millions and millions of square miles the same for the Europeans
Yet Africans could only conquer their neighboring tribe, at most their neighboring country!
Why didn't we have an mega empires like the Persians, the Europeans or the Chinese?
Why couldn't we cross all those boundaries and unite and over come our enemies like that????

Even if you can name 1, why couldn't the Somalis ever do this?

 

[Cush]

Mean while this is the most Somalis can flex, embarassing! While our counterparts conquered from eastern Asia to as far as parts of Europe and South America, we flex conquering coastals parts of Africa, even if we conquered the in land rergions it would be something as we could flex the size and take loads of resources and have a population expansion, increasing the Cushitic lands, but we weren't even capable of that! What the hell were us Somalis and Africans in general lacking??!?!?!?! Other continents can flex the craziest empires

Very good point
But this doesn't change the fact they had way way way bigger empires that controlled places like South America, huge chunks of Africa and China!
Also so what if the Sahara covers us, what prevented Songhai from completely annihilating their neighbors and having an empire like the French?

And what about the Somalis????? Why didn't they conquer shit? Right next to Arabia, India and so many other countries, all these weak tribes too! Why didn't we conquer?

1 there is a whole desert disconnecting us from the world. Eurisia was able to spread their technological advancement and government structures back and forward because there was not barrier.

Sub Sahara Africans had to figure it out on their own like americas did.

2 Look how Nigeria alone was able to overlap much of Western Europe.

3. If Nigerian alone was able to overlap much of western Europe imagine how much Songhai would overlap Europe.

There for songhai is a massive empire and completely destroyes your point

The most Somalis could conquer was Ethiopia and small coastal regions, put it on the real size of and it's a really small shit empire, plus the only good west African empires can after 900 AD when they had foreign contact

@Internet Nomad What did we even do to deserve this?????

When you consider all the land somalis held onto was bigger than the somaliweyn map.
It puts things into perspective

History, as it is chronicled, often reflects the perspective of the descendants of Japheth. Dhul Qarnayn ruled over the East and the West, encompassing the known world, and the unwritten annals of ancient empires and kingdoms that Allah eventually destroyed. The lost and unrecorded history reveals an era of black/African domination until divine punishment was meted out.

The thing is the Europeans didn't conquer themselves!
They went out and expanded, conquering those very same swarthes of land in Africa, Asia and South America, which are nothing in comparison, yes Europe is small, and that's the very reason they expanded and conqueror larger countries

Just search up Brazil conquered by the Portuguese, that alone is larger than the whole European continent and the Sahara dese

Forget the swarths of territory they took in Asia and Africa

Exactly thats why i showed you the images of the sahara barrier.

Proximity to civilisation gives you so much benefits.

South sudanese people left the stone age because how close they were to ancient eygpt.

@Cush, considering our relatively small population, the vast landmass we conquered is truly remarkable. Our territory alone could rival or even surpass most of Europe in size.

You know what that's true, nio I know the real history
BUT THE PROBLEM IS WE HAVE NO MEDEIVAL HISTORY

That is not a valid excuse, Somali population is 30 million, similar to many European nations, and our higher population allowed us to dominate other Muslim ethnic groups, further giving us an advantage to conquer more lands this is a stupid excuse

Yeah, they massacred each other, then they started conquering the whole world

 

[Cush]

@Internet Nomad @techsamatar Even if we did conquer land, it was for a very small period of time, Ethiopia was 12 years, the zanj was a few centuries
All these other empires ruled 10x more land for centuries more, they subdued empires like China, population land and geography doesn't matter for our case, why didn't we conquer the weak small tribes next to us who live in Savanah flat lands, not even mountains, just a river

had Ahmed gurey went south and unified the Ajuuran gareens with his domains he could have been the first sultan of somalis and we prob would have been the most feared muslim pirates/ nomads in african history

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

We haven’t even scratched the surface of what we have.

We got cannons washing upon shore

africans were too isolationist. They pillaged and went home
