South of the Sahara Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playli....st?list=PLivC9TMdGnL Kingdom of Benin, also known as the Edo Empire, was a kingdom located in the Southwestern region of what is now Nigeria. Lasting for at least 600 years under the Oba Dynasty, and around 1,000 more if we count the previous Ogiso Dynasty (likely closer to 2000 years between both the Ogisos and the Obas if we go with the longest estimates), Benin was one of the longest lasting states in West Africa. Home to a capital city which awed visitors, a system of earthworks rivaling the Great Wall of China in length, and some of Africa’s most famous works of art, this kingdom is an underappreciated gem of world history. This video is part of #southofthesahara, a collaboration between history channels dedicated to building a broad collection of accessible content on the underdiscussed history of Sub-Saharan Africa. Thank you to Jabari from From Nothing for organizing the collaboration, and to both Jabari and Hidden History for helping me find some of the images.I have more videos on the Kingdom of Benin and African history more broadly planned for the future, so subscribe for that!Sources:Bradbury, R.

Zanzibar -- The Dark Side of Paradise is a twenty minute news documentary which looks at the causes and consequences of the longest blackout in history.

The film assesses how unremitting power problems in the Spice Islands are putting their fragile economy at great risk, whilst also denying their impoverished population a safe water supply. It also provides a background of Zanzibar's current political situation and their dependence on tourism in order to illustrate why the power cuts are only serving to aggravate an already dire situation.

La guerre pour contrôler les ressources du XXIe siècle a déjà commencé. Et l'Afrique, comme à l'accoutumée, est aux premières loges. Depuis des décennies, la France n'est plus la seule à avoir des vues sur le continent. Dès les années 1960, la découverte d'immenses gisements de pétrole dans le golfe de Guinée attire un nouvel acteur aux besoins inextinguibles, les États-Unis. Peu à peu, la première puissance mondiale s'implante en Afrique.

En 1992, son armée intervient en Somalie, ravagée par une guerre civile, pour une opération dite humanitaire. Six ans plus tard, les États-Unis récidivent au Soudan après des attentats contre deux ambassades américaines par une organisation alors obscure

Au début des années 2000, les États-Unis intensifient leur présence en Afrique, particulièrement au Sahara, face à l'influence croissante de la Chine sur le continent. En 2007, l'administration Bush met en place Africom, une structure politico-militaire destinée à renforcer leur contrôle dans la région. Derrière cette initiative, des enjeux stratégiques liés aux vastes ressources naturelles du Sahara se dessinent : pétrole, uranium, fer, or, entre autres. Simultanément, la France consolide également sa présence militaire sur le continent.

AFRICOM, la guerre de l'ombre au Sahara

Between the years 950 AD to 1290 AD, on the Northern border of South Africa, traversing the conference of the Shashi – Limpopo Valley, which today divides Botswana, Zimbabwe and South Africa, existed an ancient African Kingdom, called Mapungubwe. From the Iron Age to present day this unique one-hour film explores the history and tells the story of this remarkable city.

Governed from an impenetrable hilltop, Mapungubwe became the business centre for all of Africa’s trade which, by this period, had become well integrated into the world economy and thrived on trade with the East Indian Trade Route attracting traders from as far afield as Persia, Arabia, India and China.

Mapungubwe was inhabited by successive groups of people for this 300 year period until it was mysteriously evacuated. No one knows for sure why, but in 1290 Mapungubwes’ inhabitants left taking with them the memories and stories of Mapungubwes' early history. In this film archaeologists and historians take us on a journey through a thousand years of untold African history revealing the controversial discovery of this ancient site and its golden artifacts.
