European Attacks of Agression in Africa preceded the Political and Economic Capture and Transport of Human Wealth and Talent

Something people don't understand is that for over 500 years, Europeans have been at war with Africa.  It was only in the late 19th-century that they began to win and colonize Africa, but the war began centuries before.  One famous example is the Portuguese bombing of Swahili cities in the 15th-century.  They were also at war with the Bantu-Kongo from the onset.  If we look at Benin art we see that whenever depicting war scenes, they show European gunmen fighting for them.  They used their guns to kill Afrakans, but were reluctant to sell Afrakans guns for a while.  This means that we have been fighting Europeans for a long time.  This is common knowledge.

What we don't realize is that if they have been fighting with us since 1440 and their first contact with West-Central Africa yet did not begin to succeed until the 19th-century, this means we were winning for over 300 years.  This reality seems to pass by people's awareness when they claim that we have never defeated them.  It took them over 300 years to subjugate us!
