Some hatê the fact that we are the Original 👏, Yes we they are:

Nubians..., The land of Nubia once included Egypt, Sudan, Uganda, and Ethiopia at its height....

The Nubian people were an advanced civilization with all the sciences such as math, agriculture, astrology, and architectural design to name a few. Sudan has some 223 pyramids twice as many as that of Egypt.

Nubia was a powerhouse of Kings, Queens, priests, and intellectual scholars. The land was rich in Ivory, Copper, Gold, and Ebony.

Nubian people place high regard on the development of the human mind because, with a highly cultivated mind, there is ultimately nothing that can't be accomplished.

Many scholars believe that the Nubians created the world's first civilization and that civilization was much older than Egypt.

In fact, in 2000, archeologists discovered many fascinating artifacts, including glasswork of great beauty and excellent craftsmanship.

These were found in Sudan and according to Time Magazine, some artefacts were dated to about 8000 years B.C. Astronomy was also well organized in Nubia during the period and an astronomical observatory dating back to about 7000 B.C. was found in Sudan as well.

It is also in Sudan that a large number of Anciênt cities exist. The History of Nubian civilization extends back to about 17,000 Years....

“Do not settle for less than exactly what you want. Your heart’s desires are there for a reason. Chase them. Pursue them relentlessly. Do not lose sight of your goals.”

““You do not have to be good. You do not have to walk on your knees for a hundred miles through the desert, repenting. You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves. Tell me about despair, yours, and I will tell you mine. Meanwhile the world goes on. Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rain are moving across the landscapes, over the prairies and the deep trees, the mountains and the rivers. Meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air, are heading home again. Whoever you are, no matter how lonely, the world offers itself to your imagination, calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting – over and over announcing your place in the family of things.””
