Cana, a neglected piece of Black History
Prior to the French invasion of what later became the French territory of Dahomey in 1894, the kingdom of Danxomê (wrongly called Dahomey by the colonial power who didn’t know better) was the dominant military, political and economic power in most of the space, with Agbomê (not Abomey) as its capital.
The African is happy to introduce to you this important piece of black history little-known outside West Africa, a piece of history that would make Blacks anywhere proud of their roots.
