I have a headcanon that the vandals would've seen the writing on the wall and got while the getting was good and hard migrated to modern day senegal where they would gradually btfo the africans by sheer will and manifest destiny their way through africa with the help of not trading literal gold for fucking salt.

>>18517260
How tbe fuck do you post on a history board and not realize how important salt was for most of human history? It wasn't even just "trading" since salt was also used as a currency (ome of many) in the area. In general salt as a currency in human history has appeared in multple different areasm

You're telling me nobody figured out how to harvest sea salt by the coast and relied entirely on the salt mines the desert nomads? The vandals knew how produce sea salt considering how when they took over the balearic island of ibiza kept and maintained the salt work facilities required to supply their new kingdom. They could've done the same in sub saharan africa and likely could've out produced the salt the happy salt merchants were making a killing off the africans. While everywhere else in europe was experiencing famine due to shitty soil harvests they would've thrived in senegal. Not to mention that even to this day the native locals of the region where mansa musa ruled have disdain for him that they tell his story as a warning to youth to not squander wealth for temporary goods. Skill issue unironically.

Up until 6k years ago, that was also true of the rest of the planet.

>>18517167
a 19th century british explorer reported an ugandan tribe that used a banana wine procedure to survive both the mother and child in c-sections (back then c-sections were a last resort when the mother is certain to die)

around that time europeans were using chainsaws to annihilate women's bodies during childbirth

As far as I know they can have some pretty neat spiritualism.

Maybe all the competent people their just asend to godhood or something silly like that , or at least their lack of stuff is explained by that.

Although that feels dishonest , this excuse only works on people who are actual shamans , and that was a small group of people.

>You're telling me nobody figured out how to harvest sea salt by the coast and relied entirely on the salt mines the desert nomads?
Because salt mines were located in multiple areas and land trade/travel/expansion was the primary focus.
>They could've done the same in sub saharan africa and likely could've out produced the salt the happy salt merchants were making a killing off the africans.
The salt merchants were also African anon. There's also salt mines in multple areas as said before, not sure why you keep downplaying how important salt was back in the day.

>While everywhere else in europe was experiencing famine due to shitty soil harvests they would've thrived in senegal
Speculating about historical what-ifs is a total waste of time

>Not to mention that even to this day the native locals of the region where mansa musa ruled have disdain for him that they tell his story as a warning to youth to not squander wealth for temporary goods.
You made that up. More so when the decline of his staye occurred literal centuries after he passed but sure keep making up people in your head as sources.

So you watched that retarded Mansa Musa video, eh? That was a very cherrypicked example and the opinion as a whole seems to be of relative recency; Ibn Khaldun spoke with a Qadi of Mali while Musa was still in living memory, and the Qadi had nothing negative to say about him during his telling of the areas' history and current events.

> the Qadi had nothing negative to say about him during his telling of the areas' history and current events.

Instead, foolish spending was attributed to Mansa Musa's grandson, Mari Jata, whose reign actually happens to coincide with Mali's fall. According to this Qadi, he was a total retard and tried stupid shit like sending Giraffes to North Africa (which he eventually succeeded in) and selling 2 tons of gold for less than it was worth to pay off debts.

*Mari Jata the second

A ~300 year fall?

>>18517426
My bad, he really just marked the beginning of the states decline.

>>18517400
I should also correct myself here, it was specifically said to be a 20 qintar boulder of gold, and the qintar can vary in amount and sometimes just means "a lot". If I'm not mistaken, it was really anywhere from 0.992 to 5.653 tons of gold.

If you can just live off the land by hunting once a week and cold is never a threat and thus you never have to make clothes, and the big old farming civiliizations are too far away to be much of a threat, what incentive is there for you to innovate if you run around all day naked and kill an animal or two?
I'm sure there were a couple of autismo tribesmen who thought of an interesting invention or two but were probably ridiculed for being tryhards.
