Africa was once the wealthiest continent in the world. It had thriving metropolises that were centers of trade and technology. Before northern Europe had universities, Africa had centers of learning at Timbuktu and Jenne that drew students from as far away as Rome and Greece. When Europe was still a collection of clans fighting to stay alive, Africa had great kingdoms with courts of law. In 1066 A.D. when the Normans invaded a little known island called England, they could muster an army of only 15,000 soldiers. In the same year, the west African state of Ghana could put 200,000 warriors in the field. The Arabs invaded Europe in the eighth century A.D., and they managed to push all the way through Spain into France. But when they invaded west Africa, they were stopped. |

The New Year came to Masaiti Boma, spreading like a bright stain across the peasant farms, soaking into the dawn and discoloring it.
The Boma was quiet. Very quiet. The air was mild, as if the last exhalation of the night still lay upon it.
The dog stood motionless on a formation that thrust up from an open slope. The wind gently ruffled his fur. He was lost in the woods. The woods had been unnaturally silent and devoid of the scent of prey. The most bitterdays of food shortage had more promise than this.
