>Dark skinned
Persia.

>>2882047
Sorry, India doesn't count. I was mainly inquiring about those of African or Caribbean descent.

>>2882050
Shifting goal posts

>>2882042
Any of the ones that had access to the Indian Ocean

>>2882050
Dravidian Indians are frequently as dark skinned as Africans and are concentrated in the south. And although somewhat smaller in population, about as ancient as north Indian civilization.

>>2882042
Define successful

>Southeast Asia
>Parts of Africa like modern Botswana and the historical Sahel kingdoms

Why didn't you state that than say dark skin. You're shifting goal posts.

>>2882042
Syria before America started the civil war

>>2882096

Then maybe you should use precise language for your shitpost thread next time, just say "niggers" if you're aiming to start a "niggers can't into civilization kek" thread.

>>2882042
Define dark skinned

>>2882103
What are you talking about? Ethiopia was a very accomplished civilization in it's own right and Mali was a hub of trade for centuries as a part of the trans-Sahara trade.

>>2882103

>lol
>kek

good thread, why did you bother making it? Why did you insult everyone'e intelligence by prefacing it with "memes aside" as if you were discussing it in good faith, rather than just shitposting?

>>2882116
That's his goal clearly. It's as if he thinks this is the first time someone has made this thread on here.

>>2882096
You're not even asking about Caribbeans, though. You know there's no indigenous native Caribbean empire, so you're asking about imported African slaves.

Fantastic thread and responses OP. If you need to constantly move goal posts just so you can have history align with your own narrative perhaps /his/ isn't the place for you.

>>2882103
Egypt is in Africa

>>2882111
Even before Assad's incompetence started the civil war, Syria's per capita GDP (PPP adjusted) was less than 1/3 that of Iraq and lower than most African countries. And that's with constant foreign aid from the USSR and then Russia (if it was anything like Cuba, USSR stipends would've been 15-20% of its GDP prior to the 21st century; though due to the government's censorship policies we don't have actual data). Syria was emphatically not doing well.

>>2882103
>egypt
>not african
The fuck? They're not black but they're still African

>>2882042
Chile is majority mestizo.

>>2882103
It's a good thing OP said "dark skinned" not "African" then, isn't it?

>Lel
>kek

Do you have any actual substance to post?

>>2882042
Babylon.

1894-539 BC

Gonna tell me Akadians were white?

>>2882042
I'd say France is pretty successful.

>>2882042
No. All memes aside, only people with skin tint lighter than RGB #FDEAD6 were ever part of great civilizations.

He's not moving goalposts; it's obvious he meant niggers in the first place. He's just terrified of offending people on an Andorran whale training forum.

>>2883531
What is a ""great civilization""?

>>2883552
Training whales in Andorra is no easy task

>>2883558
I was being sarcastic.

>>2882103
>Asks for examples of dark skinned cultures being successful

Pathetic

>Says "memes aside"

Fuck off back to /b/ you dumb fuck. You clearly don't know anything about history.

Ethiopia and Mali were incredibly successful, self-governing civilisations. Among others, anon did not mention the Chad Kingdom situated on Lake Chad, Benin, Songhai, Nubia/Kush, Somalia, Swahili city-states and Ghana empire.

What's the point of even using /his/ if you're not even interested in history?

It's a great place to shitpost.

>>2882042
The Incas and Aztecs were pretty successful

>>2883590
Inb4 mesoamericans are white with blue eyes

>the Caribbeans
Barbados and the Bahamas

>b-but muh whites
Both the president (or governor) and the prime minister in those countires are black. It's hardly the first time either, there was one prominent white PM in Barbados and that's about it, the Bahamas never had a white PM.

Egypt is most certainly African.

>>2882111
Syrians are quite pale skinned

>>2883600
Syrians can range from pale to dark skinned, as can most in the middle east and especially the Levant.

Regardless, they are considered "dark skinned" collectively.

>>2883598
It's worth noting also that many less-than-successful African countries have about as much non-African influence as those successful island nations /pol/ counts as "proof that whites need to run everything."

Kys you double nigger
