IDK breahs... :patrice:

Romans took North Africa first... phonecians colonized large areas..

Muslims colonized Europe.. per the definition of colonization.
Persians took asia.

I think the effects we are referring to happened during Modern Colonization. There was China and Tibet. And there was Europe and Americas and Africa..

In Africa.. It would be different because 1500-1900 changes everything about the continent.

Good point, somehow forgot about that.

Smh at this argument.

I believe Africa and China would of had large ties I mean very close since they been trading for thousand of years.

Arabs would of taken over Europe if Africa successfully fought them off. The best country in the world would of been in Africa.

South America would be like the Pacific islands or New Guinea.

How? They took Spain, tried to move to the North and were stopped.

The map looks accurate if the status quo remained for a certain period of time, however in my home country every few hundred years we had new powers/clans taking over after defeating weak kingdoms. My Clan started off in the furthest north and eventually take over the whole south after defeating the kingdom there in the 1800's, to this day we own that land. However the British put a halt to our land grab expedition. Who knows, we might have expanded or we might have been defeated to oblivion.

Where you from breh? Simple curiosity.

This is interesting, because I didn't know that...

But when we look at a satellite image of planet Earth, taken from outer space, doesn't it look like the conventional North-Up maps that we are used to...?

I seriously don't see how it's so hard to understand...it's a CONVENTION, meaning it's a CHOICE to show it like that (again, guess who made this choice)...just like driving on the right for example.

Here's an Australian map, using another CONVENTION

You believe there's a "up" and a "down" in space?

I dont believe anyone knows what form the various nation states would have taken. Africa is way too vast with many ethnic groups that could have been in ascendance at any different point in time. Take the Zulu, everyone would assume they would be larger but by the time of the Mfecane they had some splinter groups. Mzilikazi and Zwangendaba went as far as Zimbabwe and Tanzania respectively and like many conquering groups they absorb different groups along the way and would have been formidable groups on their own right. The Shangaan had parts of Zimbabwe , Mozambique and SA and would have been in competition with the Mwenemutapa of Zimbabwe. These groups would grow strong, disintegrate after some civil war and another one would rise and unless they coalesced around some common identity they would have remained in battle. There could be an equal chance that there would be smaller states as shown in that map or even larger ones depending on what the conquering leader decided.

I'm sorry but you just single handedly proved they are not white. :laff:

White people are from europe. Just because white people claim semites because they want to claim their accomplishments doesn't make them white. Arabs are brown people, in the arab world, they consider themselves their own people, if you went to Saudia Arabia or Yemen (which I have been) and called them white, they would look at you like you are crazy. You do understand where the term 'caucasian' comes from right? now look at the map you posted...when did those people make it to the caucus mountains? They never did. They are nomadic people who spread throughout the region.

Race doesn't actually exist to begin with, like thecoli, I mostly go by haplogroups now. It's the most present and most accurate presentation we have in modern time.


They have white skin. They are white. Brown people means known when there are Greeks, Italians and people from the Balkans who are just as brown in some cases, especially historically.

They are NOT European. The problem is you think that white = European.

They are white breh. I know Europeans don't consider them to be white but they are white, all of the Semitic people are. I know you don't want to hear that but it is true friend. There are very dark skinned Italians and Greeks as well. That entire Mediterranean region had/has a lot of dark skinned white people, both European and Semitic.

Semitic is a language not a race,,people of all colors used to speak it

That's the problem, you think that white does NOT = european, and it does. You also think that humans are only black, white, yellow and red, which is incorrect. Humans are FAR more complex than that. Why you still use these outdated labels and you live in america, is almost mind boggling to me. Even europeans no longer use these labels.

Friend, Im in a STEM degree with many Arab students and a handful of Arab professors. They have white skin. I see it everyday. I have darker skin than a lot of them and I'm white.

Props but, I think arabs and white from northern europe have a strong link which is neanderthals. When I was reading Michael Bradley's site on Neanderthals and them mixing with modern man, he makes strong points in that these two groups are the way they are because of their strong neanderthal genes. Being religious(not spiritual), extreme in cohesion and not liking outsiders, treat their women hard, and thinking the world revolves round them which brings a different way of seeing time. This odd way of seeing time means they have a need to dominate it and make their stamp in it. He was saying these two groups are like cousins who fight each other, and forces the world to be included in their fight in the form of religion with Christianity and Islam fighting to rule the world. He states the only way we will have peace is if other people who don't belong to the group find ways to get rid of them off the earth. If not the fighting will get worse, and the world will be gone. From the way things are going, I think he's right, although I think "drugs" are a way of dealing with them and keeping them calm. That is why I'm glad herb is gaining potency and becoming legal all over the world as it can help keep their paranoid brains more calm, since this constant state of fear is the reason why they act the way they do. The fear comes from living in harsh environments for so long, and now they have a need to gain, and hold, all the resources of the world. Think about it, all the fighting in the world is really just about resources(food, oil, minerals, and land). Plus, it's about forcing people to think as them meaning how they view "God", people being different from one another in the form of "races", and man is above woman.

It's funny to see scientists claim most non-africans have some neanderthal in their genes now, but back in the day they laughed at him. Here's the site if you want to read it.

I stopped reading after the first line because the rest is rambling. What links do you have that arabs mated with neanderthals considering those beings are found exclusively in europe.

Ask them if they are white in their country, make sure to include in THEIR country, not what the U.S census TELLS them to check.

Like telling a sudanese arab he is white. It's comedic.

Not to mention arabs are what we call in africa "gradient people" because the closer they are to africa, the darker they get, the closer they are to asia, the more asian they get, and the closer they are to europe (syria) the whiter they get. They are a bridge people, the 'middle' of everyone, a sort of gradient.

Not all Arabs are the same. What part of that do you not understand? You made a blanket statement saying all Arabs are white people. It's just not true at all.

White people call Arabs sand NIG GERS for a reason.
