Thank you for making this video, i am currently playing Ck3 and am looking to delve deep into africa and i realized how little i know about it despite being African diaspora. You can play as Ghana and the sounding african kingdoms as well.
Much love for the kind words. You can check other videos on our channel as we delve deep on African history and many more to come. Don't forget to subscribe Thanks again
@@obibiniba If I’m not mistaken J.C. Degraft-Johnson a Ghanaian historian proposed this. However the Soninke language and the Twi languages are in completely different language families. Thus it’s highly unlikely that there’s some connection there.
With that being said. The Soninke merchant class known as traders of gold had an enormous trade network in West Africa. And to this day, we can find Mande speakers in modern Ghana nearby the goldmines. That's the only link I can think of between Modern Ghana and Ancient Ghana/Wagadu.
Thanks for this. Sick of looking up African history and seeing enslaved people pop up first. If that ain’t propaganda, then I don’t know what is. Africa was/is a powerful continent.
If you watch the video to the end, the creator explained that the Gold Coast on gaining independence in 1957 adopted the name of the long gone empire (Ghana).
Well following the evidence. The only link the modern day Ghana has to ancient Ghana is the Soninke traders. Known as the Wangara which later became a ethnicity. That also included Mandinka speaking groups. These Soninke descendants are still in modern Ghana today in a city named Begho. All in all. It needs more deep research.
Yes begho is where we settled initially when we arrived in ghana but we further dispersed up north forming the Savannah region of present day ghana(GONJAs). We are the Mende warriors of Old Gh empire. And yes some of us are in “begho” 🙏🏾
The Almoravids were in alliance with the kingdom of Takrur. Which was a vassal of the Ghana Empire, the commoners of Takrur were forcefully islamized by king War Jabi according to Al-Bakri. This, likely a contributor for the Almoravids to sack Kumbi, the capital. Also because Wagadu was the dominant force for that part of the Trans-Saharan trade network.
Well you got to think about it Morocco is definitely not far from where this kingdom was located, most of the kingdom was situated in Mauritania and Mali which is literally a hop skip and a jump away from Morocco
@fiifiegyir6947 Gold Coast was given to the country Ghana by the European invaders. Who were the present day Ghanaians before the name Gold Coast came about and so on…

The ancient Ghana empire is DIFFERENT from modern day Ghana, we learn everyday 😮😊.
Great video I had a history exam and this really helped👍😁 thanks!
So the Ghana Empire is different from the present day Ghana. ,👍
Nice one Edu TV
Yhyh, but the Akans of Cote D'Ivoire and present day Ghana came from the ancient Ghana empire, hence the name
@@obibiniba right like we have no roots there
@@obibiniba very true , the akans migrated from old walata ...( Part of ancient Ghana)

Aoukar means our home aOu mean is Kar means home yes I am Soninke
Now I know more about Ghana
If you watch the video to the end, the creator explained that the Gold Coast on gaining independence in 1957 adopted the name of the long gone empire (Ghana).
So that means the old Ghana and the new are not the same
Super
this seems a very interesting video, but can't understand nothing because of your microphone qualiy!!! 😡😡😡😡😡
I wouldn't say the Ghanian empire completely dissolved as it came back as Ghana 😁
Well following the evidence. The only link the modern day Ghana has to ancient Ghana is the Soninke traders. Known as the Wangara which later became a ethnicity. That also included Mandinka speaking groups.
These Soninke descendants are still in modern Ghana today in a city named Begho.

I don't get the role of the Almoravids better, who are they and why are they interfering with West African Empire of Ghana
Stay tune as a video that will explain who the Almoravids are? And why they invaded the Ghana Empire will be released in due time.
Thanks for the love

Good
So what was the name of the people in modern day Ghana? Was it different tribes or where they organized as a empire???
Modern day Ghana was called Gold Coast back then
@fiifiegyir6947 Gold Coast was given to the country Ghana by the European invaders. Who were the present day Ghanaians before the name Gold Coast came about and so on…
Thanks
