I don't think you realize how much of a service you're are providing by making these videos. I've learned so much, and it only makes me want to go out and find more knowledge concerning pre-colonial African history. You are truly making a difference.
This video was excellent! I loved how you focused on all parts of the African continent rather than just North Africa as some people do! I also lived the music here
What other parts did he focus on? He mentioned one or 2 things from South of the Sahara and all those things are relatively modern in the span of history ( well into the AD)
@@GuerrillaSM Did you watch a different video or something? There was plenty of coverage of subsaran Africa Specifically after 8:55. And naturally speaking there’d be more early north african history because we have more written sources from that region & time....
My dear young brother. You're so incredibility blessed. Your sound scholarship and persistent pursuit of heritage and its complexities is breathtaking and motivational. Its amazingly inspiring, you should be documentary maker , you certainly have a gift for the visual arts to complement the sound scholarship. Much appreciation and may you have the blessings of THE MOST HIGH ONE and the veneration of our ancestors.
You are doing INCREDIBLE work. It is difficult to put in words the necessity of this for me and many other Black (African) people who seek to understand fuller their identity, history, and contributions--especially during this time of increasing Black consciousness. So many African descendants outside of Africa know nothing about this and as a result are disconnected with who they are and one another as they have to adjust to working/living with a broken identity. THANK YOU. This has also shown me that the development in the New World came at Great Expense/Detriment to the Great development that was occuring in Africa. Let's continue to move forward toward UNITY and REBIRTH.
@The Godless That's a strawman fallacy, one because just because its a video doesn't mean its histrically inaccurate just becaue it doesn't suit your narrative. Two is he provides sources in the description that back up his claims. That's a really ignorant statement and shows you don't know much about Africa, there are places in Africa which were as advanced as Egypt. In ancient Cush for example they had pyramids as well as well as their own writing script called meroitic. In west Africa there was the Songhai, Mali and Shana empires which was renowned for its mud brick and stone architecture of the Sudano Sahelian region. In southern Africa you have the massive stone monuments of great Zimbabwe and Timbuktu which was a world central hub for knowledge as it hosted 100,000 different manuscripts. www.asbmb.org/asbmbtoday/asbmbtoday_article.aspx?id=32437webapp1.dlib.indiana.edu/virtual_disk_library/index.cgi/4273355/FID840/eqtyres/erg/111367/1367.htm Also the Egyptians are African lmao, Egypt is in Africa and was culturally similar to Nubia. Also the original name of Egypt is Kemet which translates to "Black Land"
@The Godless Wow you're being willfully delusional, these are magnificent cities, I loved how you glossed over the mentioning of the great stone structures of great zimbabwe and the pyramids of ancient Nubia, "Various past African societies created sophisticated built environments. Of course, there are the engineering feats of the Egyptians: the bafflingly raised obelisks and the more than 80 pyramids. The largest of the pyramids covers 13 acres and is made of 2.25 million blocks of stone (3). Later, in the 12th century and much farther south, there were hundreds of great cities in Zimbabwe and Mozambique. There, massive stone complexes were the hubs of cities. One included a 250-meter-long, 15,000-ton curved granite wall (9). The cities featured huge castlelike compounds with numerous rooms for specific tasks, such as iron-smithing. In the 13th century, the empire of Mali boasted impressive cities, including Timbuktu, with grand palaces, mosques and universities (2). " Don't try and twist words cause you can't handle facts that don't support your narrative
This video is beyond amazing. Not just because of the detail and information it provided on the diversity and sophistication of such a large, and often overlooked, continent, but because of the wonderful audience that just keep mentioning other important civilizations and events. This goes to show that Africa not only has history, but there's too much for any one person to even lightly brush over all at once. I'm so glad I found this channel. I love history, learning about different cultures, and learning about my own possible heritage. Not only that, but there's so much information I've found because of this channel that is helping me as a writer and artist with the projects I'm currently working on. Thank you so much, HomeTeam History for everything you're doing, and thank you everyone in the comments for being such an active community that show we as Africans and African descendents matter in a world that would like to say we are invisible.
After watching what you just did and everything i know about Ancient Africa, i wonder and i am sadden how anyone much less Africans and Africans in the diaspora can think we African people never did anything. On that not i also wonder how any European cannot see this and understand why Africa is in the shape it is now, and how for almost 200 years the myth of people living in Jungles half naked is still believed, it is really sad this is not taught in schools, there is no excuse for the lack of this information to all people adults as well as students.
mike askme it all starts with us. It's already started in my opinion look at things like black panther and this channel and the popularity it's gaining
mike askme it's on purpose I wish blacks wake up to the psychological warfare going on. They want to hurt our moral so they hide history it's no ignorance it's down rite criminal.. Get offensive
rezak mohamed there is poverty, famine and disease in Africa but naked no there's barely any those tribes you see on national geographic you literally have to go deep into the wilderness to find them
900 AD. Mogadishu, Kismayo, Merka, Berber and Zelia are NOT Swahili coast cities. They’re Somali Coast cities and were rules by Somalis and speak Somali. They eventually catalysed that formation of Aujraan Empire as well as Ifat/Adal empire.
first of all, great video, keep them coming. second of all, why stop at colonialism? more significant african events could be ghana being established as the first west african nation to gain independance, the anglo-zulu wars, anglo-ashanti wars, ethiopia defeating italy, the congolese civil war, rwanda genocide, establishment of african union, and more. both good or bad, african history goes much further than colonialism
i agree, but from Nothing in my opinion spends to much time trying to appease those who refuse to see the interconnections between Africa and Egypt, he will go out of his way to appease the idiots who get on his videos and spout that bs line "We Wuzz Kingzz and Shit" he nerve tries to explain to those people what people are actually saying. other than that, that is my only beef with him. Now Hometeam is spot on with his presentations and as some one who has studies Ancient African history and who values truth and honesty, i can find no fault with his presentations.
brace yourself when you visit "From Nothing" he does good research, but spends to much time appeasing anti-Africa detractors, that is the only fault i have with him.
Your time line of significant events missed a few: 1. c8500 BCE world temperatures rise to near modern levels, coast lines change....Sahara still green. 2. c5600 BCE Tropical wet Sahara begins to dry with many (mega) lakes dry up so it becomes semi desert/desert - maybe due to 25,000 year earth orbit precession. 3. C3900 BCE 5.9 kiloyear Bond event Atlantic cooling and drought, with further Sahara desertification forcing people move to the Nile. 4. 600 BCE, Greeks settle Cyrene, known as Kyrenaika. It is known for the greatest intellectual and artistic centers of the Greek world, famous for its medical school, learned academies and architecture, Also Phonecians were trading for gold in Gambia. 5. 100 BCE The city of Rhapta predates the Arab/Swahili trade cities of East Africa by quite a bit. 6. c500 AD Mozambique was settled by humans for first time. and of course you skipped the people migrations, which were pretty significant too.
This channel really deserves to be supported financially for making African history more accessible to the general population. His content is well researched and he narrates video well. Definitely worth the time it takes to like, subscribe & share.
Great video! One thing you could have added to the string of colonial defeats: battle of the 3 kings in Morocco which ended Portuguese ambition in Western Africa and even ended their dynasty, forcing them into civil war. It's crazy how many other African nations fought off the Portuguese with success!
Beautifully done! I love the timing; I was able to read the texts before they were switched. I love the music. Sharing this with my homeschooling groups and my peps.
the proper name is: The Ajuuraan Somaali Empire. you also forgot: The Somalo-Afar Adal and Iffat sultanates; The Somali Warsangeli, Majertenia and Geladi Sultanates. Keep up the good job. Thanks.
Wow, thank you for giving me such excellent places to start! I will have to watch this a few more times to make some notes so I know where to start looking things up. This ought to keep me busy for a few years! And it was so moving, to watch this epic human story unfold even in these brief snapshots. There's so much I don't know!
I had been a PROUD HomeTeam History patreon supporter all this year. But then I fell upon financial hardship, and had to start cutting alot of my expenses---drastically. And unfortunately I had to drop HomeTeam History.... :-( BUT now, when I look back on the quality of work this brotha does, the solid information, and the love and patience in his teachings, I have to make a new decision. So, I have started up my monthly support again. Heck, I'm just gonna have to cut expenses somewhere else---but HomeTeam History deserves my continued support! Keep giving that knowledge and light! Ase' !
Another fantastic piece of work from you - it was so good I had to watch it twice - this was visualy splendid as alwaysI thought the music added greatly to the overall presentation - Thank You
I want to encourage you HomeTeam History. Your work is bringing real benefits to the global community of Africans - on the continent and the diaspora. Know with absolute certainty that the personal commitment in study, research, and sacrifice is reaping a solid return. Thank you brother.
The 8000 year old Ishonga bone, the medical doctors that were practicing cesarean birth in Uganda 2000 years ago, The Dog on tribe and there interstellar knowledge speculated to be older Han any empire in Africa....I have more....
Excellent approach to visualizing African World history, I would only say that the dates reach further back into the abyss of the ancient world than depicted . That is not a slight or downplay to this great work by any means, just shows that we must get back to our way of measuring time . Much respect and continue to allow the Ancestors to guide your thoughts .
Hi there, enjoyed your video and thank you for bringing unity among Africans even though that might not have been your goal. I'm originally from north-west Africa, my tribe is called the 'imazighen' (ⵉⵎⴰⵣⵉⵖⵏ) or "berbers" (derogatory term) and we're located in more than 10 countries. Very diverse in dialect and appearance but we're still one. I get the idea that some west Africans do not consider us as Africans because some of our light skin. Africa is quite diverse you know, I could distinguish a west African from a South or East African easily. Let us not be divided from each other based on the region, since outside powers already have been dividing us for ages by made up borders, religion and all the other import stuff. One love.
Another fantastic video presentation - so good I watched twice. I liked this format using the map - Continents landscape and the music for added drama - this was visually very informative. I really appreciate your creative talent and desire to share knowledge - Thank You for sharing your gift.
Theman controlled the Red Sea as well as some parts of the Arabian peninsula . A lot of scholars distance the Yemeni kingdom(sabean) from the D'mt empire but they have found a palace in Eritrea with inscription dating to 600 BBC saying that a D'mt king ruled the sabeans. To add to all this, there have been found several artifacts and writings in Yemen in the D'mt script.
fantastic video! If I may, couple of suggestions: I really think necessary to have mentioned the Nyiginya Kingdom of Rwanda (which started in the 11th Century and lasted until 1885, and had a dynasty until 1961.) Same for the Burundi Kingdom (17th Century-1966) and the Buganda Kingdom (14th Century-1966). Finally, the iron industry in pre-colonial Africa could have been pretty interesting to mention.
Abyssinian Empire was not founded in in 1137. It is a continuation of and another name of Axumite Empire.It is a pre-christian empire.If you look at the architectural remnants of Axumite civilization, you will notice curved at the top of the Axum Obelisk (still standing in Northern Ethiopia) a symbol depicting the eye of Horas. Those days, the axumites (today Ethiopians and Eritreans) were not christian yet; rather part of the mystery system of the ancient Kemit religion.
To add to the other comment, Moroccans were also not the Moors entirely, the Moors were largely driven out before the Spanish Inquisition in the 1400's n settled all over North Africa some back to Arabia
The Moors were not from Arabia, they were indigenous people called 'imazighen' but just Arabized through culture. The arabization of Africa ruined North Africa the most. The idea of the Maghrebs should have never existed if you ask me.
geerenmo Idk how true that is because I don't know much about the imazigh before arabization. All I know is that the Spanish described the Moors as tall dark and Diabolical in their records once they usurped them. But to be fair I find it hard to believe because they brought vast order cleanliness and beautiful architecture to the Iberian Peninsula during their reign which was only due to arabization. N honestly I don't know about Africa being too bad due to arabization as opposed to colonization from Europe or their meddling in African affairs
Barry, I know it's true because I have been looking into it. All the dynasties were Imazighen who were arabized through culture. They brought some good shit but no one should be colonizing anyone. And the Arabs and Europeans did screw up Africa, both are guilty because they were into slavery, also the plundering of resources of course. So screw them both.
I would love to see a movie where there is a queen who is ruler of her tribe in Africa, then one day something happens to where she wakes up in modern time and she meets her doppelgänger. Then she learns everything that has happened and sees how we are, then makes it her mission to teach modern day civilians about our history and she gets close with her doppelgänger. Then the same “something” that happened to her for her to get to modern day happens again and she goes back home and runs and tells her tribe the whole story. Don’t mind my thoughts though
I don't think you realize how much of a service you're are providing by making these videos. I've learned so much, and it only makes me want to go out and find more knowledge concerning pre-colonial African history. You are truly making a difference.

Excellent video. Very interesting, informative and worthwhile video. A must see video for everyone.
I love this mental map of African history. And the music, great travel Asante Sana.
fantastic video!
If I may, couple of suggestions: I really think necessary to have mentioned the Nyiginya Kingdom of Rwanda (which started in the 11th Century and lasted until 1885, and had a dynasty until 1961.)
Same for the Burundi Kingdom (17th Century-1966) and the Buganda Kingdom (14th Century-1966). Finally, the iron industry in pre-colonial Africa could have been pretty interesting to mention.

This is powerful information and presented in a way that speaks highly of both the scholarship and the scholar behind it. An invaluable resource.
Abyssinian Empire was not founded in in 1137. It is a continuation of and another name of Axumite Empire.It is a pre-christian empire.If you look at the architectural remnants of Axumite civilization, you will notice curved at the top of the Axum Obelisk (still standing in Northern Ethiopia) a symbol depicting the eye of Horas. Those days, the axumites (today Ethiopians and Eritreans) were not christian yet; rather part of the mystery system of the ancient Kemit religion.
Absolutely stunning. I have to admit, you are a blessing. Knowlege is key and you are a true historian and teacher. God bless!
Absolutely Fantastic! Congratulations!
How do I see it only today??!
C'est magnifique !!
Wow loving this channel
A truly excellent post
So in summary, West Africa's down fall was precipitated by the Morrocan invasion. In other words, the Moors caused West Africa's dark ages.
blakjak38 civil wars and lot of ethnic diversity
Morrocan just come to finish it off.
To add to the other comment, Moroccans were also not the Moors entirely, the Moors were largely driven out before the Spanish Inquisition in the 1400's n settled all over North Africa some back to Arabia
The Moors were not from Arabia, they were indigenous people called 'imazighen' but just Arabized through culture. The arabization of Africa ruined North Africa the most. The idea of the Maghrebs should have never existed if you ask me.
geerenmo Idk how true that is because I don't know much about the imazigh before arabization. All I know is that the Spanish described the Moors as tall dark and Diabolical in their records once they usurped them. But to be fair I find it hard to believe because they brought vast order cleanliness and beautiful architecture to the Iberian Peninsula during their reign which was only due to arabization. N honestly I don't know about Africa being too bad due to arabization as opposed to colonization from Europe or their meddling in African affairs
Barry, I know it's true because I have been looking into it. All the dynasties were Imazighen who were arabized through culture. They brought some good shit but no one should be colonizing anyone. And the Arabs and Europeans did screw up Africa, both are guilty because they were into slavery, also the plundering of resources of course. So screw them both.
Thank you so much for this, my day is now perfect💯
This was really good
Fantastic video!
Absolutely fantastic!! Love your content, and this was no exception. This should be shared in classroms. Wish it mentioned the "Bantu Expansion."
Beautiful piece within the confines of the visual very artistic and stylized and yet informative thank you for blessing us with this information
Thank you so much for your research!
I would love to see a movie where there is a queen who is ruler of her tribe in Africa, then one day something happens to where she wakes up in modern time and she meets her doppelgänger. Then she learns everything that has happened and sees how we are, then makes it her mission to teach modern day civilians about our history and she gets close with her doppelgänger. Then the same “something” that happened to her for her to get to modern day happens again and she goes back home and runs and tells her tribe the whole story. Don’t mind my thoughts though
