You all probably heard about how black Africa was didn't develop because of bad terrain but lately I noticed this:
Its the Kushite empire from 700 BC: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Kushite_empire_700bc.jpg
The Kushites fought almost all the major Mediterranean empires of the ancient era but for some reasons stopped developing at some point and fell into decline.
And its not the only one. It seems that in the ancient era and even a little in the middle ages, black Africa was actually a place worth mentioning with real political power, natural resources and large empires. So what happened?
More empires:
Medieval Ethiopian Empire
Medieval Ghana Empire
