Christianity in most area was confronted during the centuries after the struggle by Islam, the Christian religion suffered in some measure, but did not disappear. Christianity has been flourishing on the northern part of this continent for years before Islam was born. Christianity in North African seemed to have been well founded deeply entrenched and

Politically, economically and culturally, North Americans were dying slowly in seemingly more peaceful fur trade, and Africans were immediately hit by the wreaked havoc of slave trade. North America’s ostensible peace with the outside world could not avoid civil wars, as African people’s self-protection could not avoid European gory violent human plunder. In Africa, people were still live

between Africa and Eurasia changed during the era of 300-1450, a few factors stayed the same. In 300 C.E., trade routes were primarily between Europe and North Africa.

The unpleasant and painful experience of colonialism in Africa has great effects on almost all faces of life such as language, education, religion, popular culture and the like. Colonial and post-colonial novels in Africa have therefore become unusual weapons used to change the European idea about the third world peoples and to illustrate how the European colonizer could create unequal relations of power, based on binary oppositions such as “First–world” and “third–world”; “white” and “black”, “colonizer”

when Atkinson wrote about how the North African war became a ripple effect for the allies “...first, North Africa; then, Italy; and finally the invasion of Normandy and the subsequent campaigns across France,...” all show the progress the Allies made in ground after the completed the North African War. The second example was when America actually forced to improve their military power as they entered this war. “...North America was a pivot point in the American History, the place where the United States

Africa and America are two very different continents but can still be compared throughout their history. After previously researching Americas history it came about that a vital part of the American culture come down the native people deciding to move or remain in one place due to a huge climate change, a very similar thing happened in West Africa. In about 5500BC it was the ‘beginning of the desertification of north Africa, which ultimately lead to the formation of the Sahara desert from land that
