[QUOTE]Originally posted by Truthcentric: [QB] I wish I would have shared my essay with you guys [i]before[/i] submitting it to RTW Heaven. You and Sundjata make me look like a newbie to African history! That said: [QUOTE][qb]Not necessrily. It could be argued that the Mandeka would do well primarily in open country suitable for cavalry, or maneuvering big masses of infantry. In thick forest country however, they would be very much less impressive. Indeed the record shows that when the cavalry forces of some African empires engaged deep in heavy forest regions their performance was uneven, and they had their share of defeats.[/qb][/QUOTE]I should note that I was comparing the Mandinka to two other African cultures that also fought on open terrain. I don't think either Egypt or South Africa are swathed with thick rainforest. [/QB][/QUOTE]
