There is no continent more blessed with striking natural beauty and diversity than the African
Motherland. And it was from this physical and genetic diversity that allowed Africans to parent the rest of humanity.
Indigenous Africa is testimony to the full spectrum, of skin tones, hair textures, rich religious and cultural practices. Africa though the second largest continent is home to 1,022,234,
000 people. There are an estimated
3000 tribes in Africa and each consisting of their own unique culture, religion, history and fashion. Africa is a melting pot of skin tones as well.
Northern Africans claim the
Arabic race.
Egyptians,
Nubian's,
Libyans and other
Arabic countries of
North Africa claim this identity.
Great ancient
Kingdoms and empires are known to this area especially
Egypt. An ancient land of
Pharaohs,
Pyramids architectural genius and skill. Sub -
Saharan Africa, though most of it's history is largely unknown is the birthplace of
Mankind. The inhabitants of
Sub-Saharan Africa are black, which is why its normally referred to as "
Black Africa". In sub Saharan Africa are hundreds of
Tribes and on the land once ruled Great civilizations and Kingdoms. Though slavery is normally regarded as negative because of it
Mama Africa's descendants are now spread world wide.
Scattered around Sub-Saharan Africa are Bantu-sent tribes all consisting of
Darker skin peoples. The tribes have Bantu-sent tongues and all consist of similar culture/practices. The land god-given to these people is blessed in abundance with natural beauty and wealth.
Plains,
Rain forests and Deserts are natural ecosystems/landscapes in the area. The
Masai are normally tall and thin while The
Yoruba of
Nigeria are normally much larger. The Himba of
Namibia are light skinned. All these different looks are attributed to different tribes/areas of Africa. As genetically different as we are all Africa possesses the natural beauty of it's land and the physical beauty of it's people. That's what makes us identify, our love for each other and our love for our land. In my language " Nyanzire Africa ", for all She is
Mother Africa.
