Civilization is also known as Negro despotism, theocracy, or the republic. In terms of spirituality, the great thing in common between African cultures is the presence of a single creator god and untouchable rarely directly manifested in the lives of men. Africans revere an unknown concept in Europe corresponding to Neterus of ancient Egypt, these, geniuses, semi-gods or archangels are attributes of one god, which led to incorrectly think the African spirituality as polytheistic.

People have lived in Africa for more than three million years, and thus it possesses a rich and varied history. On one hand, Africa is widely believed to be the birthplace of modem human beings and is where some of the world's greatest civilizations, such as the Egyptian and Nubian societies, emerged.
