Was there ever a time where an African nation was equal or greater than Europe in context of civilian /comfy/ level?

>Literally none, except Egypt
Mali, Swahili, and the kingdom of kush for a few.
>also, the French built that mud mosque
He rebuilt it.
>>
>>3395601
>Mali
It existed around the time of the middle ages and was by no means more advanced than anywhere in Europe
>Swahili
The only stuff that mattered existed due to Arab colonization
>Kush
Weren't even advanced enough for them to create a writing system. The only things of significance that remain are some small pyramids which makes people think that they were close to being on par with Ancient Egyptians
>For a few
Got anymore then?

>He rebuilt it.
A mud mosque. Very impressive.

I mean how the fuck can you not look that up

Introduced to them by Egyptians
>>
>>3395676
Was adapted from the Egyptian script by them just like ALL current European writing systems came from outside Europe and were adapted
>>
>>3393599
Aside from Egypt not really. Some areas in the north after the Islamic conquests mayve been okay.

Damn, whitey sure had a thing to turn Africa into a paradise
Looking at your pic or watching old movies about Colonial Africa made me realize that

I wish decolonization had never happened
I wish the same thing had happened to locals populations in Africa as what happened to them in North America
Imagine the heƩaven Africa would be now

>>3396426
Please stop using the term "value" when it comes to ancient cultures. It implies there's an objective measure of the quality of civilisation.
>>
>>3396461
I'm pretty sure those buildings were built but the local Swahili people.
>>
>>3396472
Never mind, it isn't. It's still pretty traditional Swahili architecture though.
>>
>>3396465
>It implies there's an objective measure of the quality of civilisation.
in science, there is. Ever heard of Type 1, 2 and 3 Civilizations? That being said, all human civilizations have yet to reach type 1, so we are all equally useless.
>>
>>3396480
The Kardeshev scale only refers to the energy use of a civilisation, not the technology or physical attributes of that civilisation. A type 2 civ could both be a low tech galaxy spanning colonial empire or a single giant computer on a Dyson sphere
>>
>>3393599
Never.
>>
>>3396472
Yeah but whites designed them.
>>
>>3396783
Those buildings specifically yes but it's based on Swahili architecture.
