Africa’s current history is inexplicably linked with its pre-colonial past and its colonial experience. The long duree perspective on African history mandates cogitation on the elements of that past that subsist or have evolved into the present, including cultural forms and organisations, languages and their transformation, the constant and massive movements of peoples including forced displacements in the formation of empires, the slave trade and the formation of of a diaspora and more.
