Africa is the birthplace of humanity, where our earliest ancestors roamed and crafted the first tools. Even as humans migrated away, we never fully left behind our connection to this continent. Throughout history, people have lived and thrived in Africa, leaving traces of their presence in places like the Sahara Desert and along major rivers like the Nile and Niger. It’s in Africa that some of the earliest advanced civilizations emerged, offering a glimpse into the diverse kingdoms and societies of ancient times. Egypt served as a primary hub of knowledge for numerous neighboring kingdoms that were equally prosperous and advanced. However, over time, these kingdoms were forgotten as other civilizations and empires rose to prominence across the continent. It’s only in recent years that we’re rediscovering the significance of kingdoms like Aksum, the political strength of Kush, and the wealth of the enigmatic Punt. Similarly, ongoing research is shedding light on the medieval kingdoms of Ghana and Mali, celebrated for their distinct pre-Muslim cultures and their interpretations of Islam. The goal of this series is to outline the history of Modern Europe, along with its main colonies and conquests, from the late fifteenth century up to the present day in Ghana. In some cases, the narrative may begin at an earlier time, but for colonies, it typically starts later. Each country’s history is usually discussed separately to better understand the connection of events and display the continuity of historical development, except during periods like the French Revolution and Napoleon I. The series aims to be useful for anyone interested in understanding current political conditions, as it believes that understanding the past is essential for grasping contemporary events. By delving into the historical causes behind present circumstances, the series hopes to offer detailed insights into the last four centuries, incorporating significant findings from modern research. It’s intended to benefit both beginners and students already familiar with African and Europeanhistory.
