A 100% black South Africa.

I believe ability can be taught. If black South Africans learnt the same trades & skills that whites & Asians have, they'd be able to maintain South Africa as is. That is, IF they wanted to keep South Africa as is. 

A South Africa with pre-1652 racial demographics could still be successful. 

France could've still won the FIFA World Cup with only white Gaul-descended Frenchmen. Ability is not a matter of race as it is of learning a method. This is why Japan, a largely homogenous nation seems to be good at everything from industry to sport. Japan has managed to find a balance between their ancient past & modern systems, or they - at least - have modernized their ancient cultures & translated them into the modern world. They do all this with very few Europeans & Africans in their country. No ability is race specific. Black people can learn to make guns & cars as easily as white people can learn to stick fight & hunt animals with spears. 

So, I definitely think that if whites & Indians completely vanished from South Africa, it would be a matter of blacks learning the necessary skills to maintain some stability. We managed to govern ourselves for thousands of years without seeing a single European & I believe, in the right circumstances, we still could but it would maybe be outside of the gaze of the Western world because their kin would've left. 

I think a hard reset could be good for South Africa to return to an age homogenous nations but for the sake of not shaking up the status quo, we'll remain content in a diverse South Africa.

What did King Shaka look like?

I've heard some people quoting from King Shaka's praises claiming that he was "like the sun" therefore light-skinned. But I'd like to ask how comparisons with the sun equate with being light-skinned? If anything, if King Shaka was light-skinned, they'd compare him to something terrestrial like the colour of a cow hide, wood or other object because very few extraterrestrial objects have the colour of any human skin. Even white people are called "ondlebe zikhanya ilanga" ('those who have translucent ears") & not  "abakhanya okwelanga" ("those who shine like the sun"). King Shaka's mother was from Elangeni & there is the Langa clan in KZN, all of them are black with many being exceptionally dark-skinned so I don't think the comparisons comparing King Shaka with the sun have anything to do with his complexion. Even the whites who first saw him & drew him wrote that he was dark & fairly tall. I also don...

Comprehensive classification of Ngoni / Nguni groups.

List of Ngoni / Nguni nations : • Bhaca • Hlubi • Mpondo • Ndebele (northern Ndebele in Mthwakazi & southern Ndebele in Gauteng, South Africa) • Ngoni / Jere / Jele (mainly in Malawi, northern Mozambique, southern Tanzania, Zambia) • Nhlangwini    • Shangaan  • Swazi  • Tembu • Xhosa • Zizi • Zulu Altogether, twelve (12) "Nguni" groups are known to exist. From my knowledge in any case.  Bhaca, Hlubi, Nhlangwini, Swazi & Zizi are the Mbo Entity . The Mbo Entity often declassifies itself from the Nguni group. Nhlangwini & Swazi are under a Dlamini dynasty while the Hlubi & Zizi are also Dlamini tribes. Ngoni & Shangaan are of Ndwandwe origin (a tribe assimilated by the Zulu Empire). Bhaca, Hlubi, Ndebele, Nhlangwini, Shangaan, Zizi & some Mpondo are often classified as Zulu. While it's unknown whether Mpondo & Xhosa qualify as Nguni, they are often grouped as Nguni. Using family groups to classify :  • Mbo • Mpo...

The problem with a single African currency.

Preword: It's funny because one of the main reasons I found the courage to blog on African matters was due to a West African(?) gentleman who proposed the concept of a said "swal" & "zul" as a continental African currency in a blog. His boldness & conviction in his idea just captivated me & today I have to debunk this idea of his. But, hopefully, Africa sees why. African technologies & financial solutions Oh, Africa. We are so romantic; "United States of Africa", "Single African currency", "African unity", "Ubuntu"... all these fluffy, lovey-dovey concepts that will be ripped to shreds in the globalised world.  I debunked why a United States of Africa would likely collapse as soon as it sees the light of day. Today, I will debunk the concept of a "Single African currency" & explain why it would leave our enemies salivating.  I can't blame people who like stuff like United States of Africa...
