I'm not sure what you mean by "amazing." The Biblical Egyptians were black. That would mean that all the structures and wonders in Egypt are attributed to the black man. Also in early AD Ethiopia was great. Ethiopians are descended from ancient Egyptians. When Egypt lost wars the inhabitants were driven to other countries and regions like Ethiopia and other countries in Africa. Roughly from about 4000 BC to 2000 BC the blacks ruled the world. I haven't got into alot of black history but I'm sure if you dig there have been great cities in Africa. The stereo type of the "stupid black slave and that's all they are" is wrong.
P.S. Alexandria is attributed to the Greeks. Namely Alexander the Great. Let's give credit where credit is due lazygirl...

Black folks built the Pyramids. People want to give everyone BUT blacks credit for the pyramids...aliens, etc. Get educated. Black folks helped to build the White House. The USA is full of things that would never have been built if it hadn't been for blacks. Africa is the origin of all human life (according to archeology) so you could argue that every great city that has ever been built was built by africans....just a thought.

You mean like Alexandria? Oh wait, the Greeks built that. Ok, truthfully, because of the differences in cultures, African cities that are truly great are not acknowledged as such.

have you heard of timbuktu? Let me guess, you thought it was made up. And the Queen of Sheba (makeda)? Did they not teach world history in your school when you were growing up? If not, tell me where that was so i can stay away

Well, Egypt was pretty amazing, Alexandria, Cairo, and of course the Pyramids and some of the other tombs around Egypt. Of course all that was done with slaves, so...

Cairo Egypt
Empire of Sudan
Empire of Sokoto
Empire of Kanem-Mbonu etc.
Today, we would build amazing cities if all the imperialist will leave us rule ourselves and pick our leaders. (Diamonds, Oil, Rubber, Gold, Timber, Coffee, Cocoa etc.)
Check out Abuja, Douala, Accra, Abijan
Have you seen the presidency of Cameroon? the white house doesn't even come close

Yes, America. The slaves built America and the rail roads to build cities. They were major contributors and without the slaves, there would not have been any rail roads and the means to travel to build more cities.

¿Por que Dios hizo a los blancos tan bonitos y a los ****** tan feos?
Jerk.
Just keep in mind, Pepe, you aren't really white.
You never heard of the empires of the Songhai, Mali, Zulu, Cushites, Khoisan and, yes, Egyptians?!
Duh!
