Classifications such as "West African" and "East African" and - TopicsExpress



          

Classifications such as "West African" and "East African" and "North African" and "Sub Saharan African" are made up by Europeans and do not exist in reality. There are of course different tribes and nations in Africa, but these classifications based on simple geographic location are made up by Europeans and hold little to no weight in reality. There Africans with aquiline features in West Africa and Africans with full features in East Africa. There are dark skinned deeply melanated indigenous Africans in North Africa and lighter skinned unmixed Africans in Sub Saharan Africa. "West/East/North/Sub-Saharan" all of this is European Geo-Politics that have nothing to do with genetics ethnicity and lineage. -PTH
