  • The Omani Empire was not a typical empire. It was not something you could easily see on the map. It didn’t have an army or typical bureaucracy. In the corner of Arabia, on the Indian Ocean coast, the Omani rulers looked away from the land and outward to the sea, ultimately controlling many important sea lanes. This so-called empire was a loose web of ports connected through trade relations. Over time, it became a powerful economic, political, and cultural force that reshaped the Indian Ocean world, from Oman to Zanzibar and beyond.

    It is a sea empire like that of Carthage or Venice. Small territorial holdings with a strong enthuse on trade and influence.

You may have a big mix with many different strands and types of DNA . Don't be surprised to find most of Hindus , Buddhists, Iranian, and Arabs as your half-brother but from a different mother. You will be surprised how your male ancestors came from so far just for few days for fun to your motherland for a good time, In return, they blessed you with their DNA.

      The Barbary Slave trade outcompetes the transatlantic slave trade by over an order of magnitute in terms of slaves traded. This is not even getting into the slave trade that happened across east africa with muslim slave traders. The only reason for why the Middle East is not full of africans is because muslims treated africans like consumables. Castrating every single male, ensuring there were no progenies and resulting in the death of at least 9/10th of the slaves taken, and then using them in hard labour, so that they die within 5 years of being enslaved.

    The Omanis ran the centuries long East African Slave Trade. Millions of black African men, women and children were trafficked from the interior of Africa to Zanzibar and then transported into a life of barbaric slavery to the Gulf and wider Indian Ocean. By the time the British got to Zanzibar 50,000 Black men, women and children were passing through Omani run slave markets every year. One incredibly gruesome fact about the Omani run East African Slave Trade was that the males were routinely castrated. The British implored the Omani Sultans of Zanzibar to stop the Slave Trade, but they did not. As a result the British decided to take over Zanzibar. In 1964 just after the British left Zanzibar, the local Black Africans fearful of a return to Omani Arab rule massacred the Omani Arab population of Zanzibar.
