Wasnt the Mali empire one of the richest to exist?
It def was rich, but idk how much
I know that Timbuktu was 5 times as populous as London in Renessaince or sth like that
But I was solely referring to Doomoo, who accused me of spreading bullshit
Cause he couldn't find any African castles
They literally waz kangz tho
most of these were built by white people
but a few of them weren't, nice find laure
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fasil_Ghebbi this is the only none white or Egyptian castle on the list i think
Yeah, that's the one I posted, but there are some others
i wouldnt' count a ruined city as a castle
kind of a reach
The Great Zimbabwe imo could be classified as a castle + different castles of Ethiopia and Somalia (though I couldn't find many good pics of Somalian ones, mostly black n white)
Mombasa
Kilwa
Siyu, though now ruined as hell
Kilwa was built by arabs
So was Siyu
I can't find any information about Kilwa being built by Arabs
my bad it was white people
https://www.wmf.org/project/historic-sites-kilwa more legit source
I'd argue Portuguese aren't white tho :^)
Kek
Yeah, that fort was built by Portugese, but there also was an older one called "Husuni Ndogo"
Which was built def before Portugese arrived there
And there was something called "Husuni Kubwa" which means "Great Fort"
It served as a palace, idk if it counts
Would be avatar material if mine didn't fit discord so well.
