Your country is not Azania, mate. Azania was the name given by the ancient Greeks and ancient Romans to a country located in East and Central Africa: around what composes nowadays South Somalia, the present-day Swahili Coast, the East African hinterland and the sources of the Upper Nile in the native birthland of the Ethiopian Macrobians in intralacustrine Africa. The medieval Arabs, Persians and Chinese called this country under the name of Bilad-al Zanj or "Land of the Azanians (Zanjs)" or Zanjestan "Azanian States" and considered that the areas of the Equatorial African continent west to the Great Lakes - the tropical rainforest and plains zones they barely made it for centuries, beyond the intralascutrine region populated by the "Upper Nile Nubians" (Acholis/Chollos/Luos and other Nilotes) , Mboshis (prior migrating into the Congo basin in early 19th century) whom they both tried to enslave, "Al-Khem's legendary kingdom" (Kitara Empire of the Chwezi Dynasty, then whatever succeeded after their downfall in early 14th century) and a mysterious Abyssinian queen tasked to protect a "lake with a ring of fire engirdling an island in its middle, with a guardian to protect a sacred fire" (someplace in the Great Lakes, likely taken from 10th century Judeo-Abyssinian traveller Eldad Ha-Dani's and 12th century Judeo-Spaniard Benjamin of Tuleda' writings, referencing about 9th-10th century Judeo-Pagan Zagwe Empress Gudit's conquest of the Kitara Empire and her own spiritual connection with the native autochtonous Chwezi religious order of the polity) , from which lived in other Upper Nile Nubians, Pygmies, Cafres and "Zanjs" such as the Vangues (ancestors to the Bobanguis, Mangbetus and Azandes) and Pygmies. Thus, medieval and early modern precolonial Azania corresponds to what the Portugese identified in 16th to 18th centuries as Zanguebar (the East African region eastward to the Great Lakes, south to the Abyssinian Highlands and the Barbary Coast e.g. Western and Northern Somalia, and the Swahili Coast) and Anzicana (the region west to the Great Lakes, south of the Kerma-Bornu and Nubia, and coasting the Atlantic down its northwestmost province the "Biafra Kingdom" e.g. *the Bamun Empire* in southwest Nigeria and a major part of Cameroon, to the kingdoms and polities of Central-West Angola lest prior their treacherous secession and fealty of the Kongo kingdom and its neighbors to the Portugese and Rome, and north of the latitudes of southern Angola to the southernmost banks of the Malawi Lake, much respectively. *Not to the kingdoms, polities and lands beyond south.*

I live five minutes walk from where that Khoi encampment was. It's worth noting that the Portuguese Duke in charge of their expedition, Dom D'Almeida, had just returned from comitting atrocities in India - making it particularly satisfying that he was slain along with several other high ranking Portugues nobles (read: pirates). It is also worth noting that the Khoi are fighting a development on this land that is being made into a headquarters for guess who... Amazon. And the developers have slandered them - achieving colonialism's aims once again but now with huge teams of well-paid lawyers. The battle between these Khoi warriors and D'Almeida's pirates was the first clash between Europeans and indigenous South Africans in what is now South Africa.

As a _"Cape Malay"_ and as a _"Cape Coloured"_ this means so much to me❤️ Thank you brother, for delivering this information on this landmark occasion, to a broader audience. It is something that even I as a South African only learnt much later in life. Our educational curriculum and history textbooks are still very much Judeo-Christian and Eurocentric, so growing up we weren't taught this, just as we weren't taught about our rich, complex, history and identity as _"Cape Malays"_ and _"Cape Coloureds"._ I love the way you framed it. Today in fact, we still have the sword and shield of one of our (the Cape Malay community's) prominent forefathers, Tuan Guru, who resisted Dutch colonization in his homeland of Indonesia. Subsequently, he was captured and exiled to the Cape, more particularly, Robben Island - centuries prior to the prison island being made famous as the place where Nelson Mandela was kept a prisoner. I have so much I could say and so much I could share. I could go on and on and on. But once again, this means a lot brother. Thank you for this. And thank you for all the good that you do.

What you said remind me of the Conquests of Mexico and Peru by the Spaniards. The Europeans only had a handful of men when they landed in the New World and one of the reasons why they succeeded were because of the native allies and the diseases they brought with them from Europe. But in Africa, diseases cannot played such an important role because all African peoples are immune to some diseases like those in Europe and Asia. So if they wanted conquests, they will needed plenty of native allies for help.

Everywhere in the world, anything associated with slavery acquired a stigma. Where the slaves were darker than the slave owners, colorism followed. Where slavery was associated with particular types of work, that work was considered degrading. In Southeast Asia, carrying anything in your hands was the job of slaves. When slavery was ended, even the poorest person would hire someone else to carry their purchases when they went to the market because carrying packages held a stigma for a long time. People aren't very nice. Colorism has a history that goes back long before black Africans were transported far and wide as slaves. As far back as you go, the people who live in palaces were not in the sun in the heat of the day, but the poorest people were. This was true in Mesopotamia, China, and elsewhere.

I have read that the European advantage over the Khoi and San consisted mainly in having diseases that they had no resistance to. The early guns had no advantage over stone tipped arrows. The arrows had greater range, greater accuracy, and more rapid rate of fire in the 16th and 17th centuries. The Zulu already had the same diseases that the Europeans brought with them, and a few that the Europeans didn't have (malaria, yellow fever). Once Europeans reached the tropics the disease advantage was no longer with them.

As a Portuguese myself, I find this kinda funny. And I somewhat suspect at least one of the issues for why my ancestors got defeated in battle here. If it is true that they carried crossbows instead of firearms, then immediately they lose the "shock and awe" value of the explosion produced by gunpowder. To those who have never seen a firearm, it would seem like some sort of magic stick that causes a loud noise and kills someone without even throwing anything against the man it was pointed at. The second part is that crossbows are good against armor, and during sieges, both in offense and defense. However, crossbows against bows? In open fields? They must have SEVERELY underestimated the range of their opponents bows, their skills, and be very arrogant of thinking they could take them in leveled ground (plains, instead of elevated positions, either natural or man-made). By the way, HomeTeam History. Regarding the "difficult pill to swallow" you mentioned, you can always talk about "King Afonso I of Congo". The relationship between Congo and Portugal is one of the key factors that lead to us dominating the trans-atlantic slave trade for at least 200 years.

🤫Nobody wants to hear the inconvenient truth... During the early years of the transatlantic slave trade, the Portuguese generally purchased Africans who had been enslaved during tribal wars. As the demand for enslaved people grew, the Portuguese began to enter the interior of Africa to forcibly take captives; as other Europeans became involved in the slave trade, generally they remained on the coast and purchased captives from Africans who had transported them from the interior.

Right. Flintlock muskets were better than wheel- or matchlocks, but they still had woeful inaccuracy beyond 100 yards, high rates of misfires ("flash in the [firing] pan") and difficulty in reloading due to barrels clogged with black powder residue. Muzzle-loading rifles, while much more accurate over longer range (about 300 yards) they took longer to reload (from tighter, twisty grooved barrels to spin the ball) and suffered from the same problems with flintlock and black powder. As for depending on disgruntled or fractious locals to assist them, Europeans even did this in the Americas, despite having an overwhelming advantage in their own resistance to Eurasian diseases they brought, which over time killed about 90%(!) of indigenous populations.

As a Cajun, I would like to learn and unpack more about south Louisiana, slave sale and purchase specifically. I would suspect there to be a wealth of information and I would love to see what you put together.

Love your channel bro, but 4 minutes for ads, 3 minutes talking about the general process of european colonization and less than 2 minutes talking about the actual conflict isn't a good video.

The Portuguese were never a land based empire and could never fight well battles on firm land, unlike the Spanish. Still, they were just probably overconfident in the referred episode; which cannot be used to generalize in terms of relative military strength and science. Europeans may not have had prior to the XIX century a particularly efficient military tech, but they simply lacked the manpower to use it overseas.

Yeah, he's clearly talking about a farming community and calls them Khoikhoi at some point. The San are hunter/gatherers, right?

Khoisan is a term given by a German zoologist, they never called themselves that. Also the Khoikhoi were nomadic pastoralists while the San (a name given to them by the Khoikhoi) were hunter gatherers.

You should not explain yourself when you are presenting what is neglected by facts.
