Mandinka moral story

“At this certain time, in a certain
village, lived this certain person.” It was a small boy who walked to the riverbank oneday and found a crocodile trapped in a net.
“Help me!” the crocodile cried out.
“You’ll kill me!” cried the boy.
“No! Come nearer!” said the crocodile.
So the boy went up to the crocodile—and instantly was
seized by the teeth in that long mouth.
“Is this how you repay my goodness—with badness?”
cried the boy.
“Of course,” said the crocodile out of the corner of his mouth. “That is the way of the world.”
The boy refused to believe that, so the crocodile agreednot to swallow him without getting an opinion from the firstthree witnesses to pass by.
First was an old donkey. When the boy asked his opinion, the donkey said, “Nowthat I’m old and can no longer work, my master has driven me out for the leopards to get me!”
“See?” said the crocodile. Next to pass by was an oldhorse, who had the same opinion.
“See?” said the crocodile.
Then along came a plumprabbit who said, “Well, I can’t give a good opinion withoutseeing this matter as it happened from the beginning.” Grumbling, the crocodile opened his mouth to tell him—and the boy jumped out to safety on the riverbank.
“Do you like crocodile meat?” asked the rabbit.
The boysaid yes. “And do your parents?” He said yes again. “Then
here is a crocodile ready for the pot.”
The boy ran off and returned with the men of the village, who helped him to kill the crocodile. But they brought withthem a wuolo dog, which chased and caught and killed therabbit, too.
“So the crocodile was right,” said Nyo Boto. “It is the wayof the world that goodness is often repaid with badness".

The Shilluk Kingdom, dominated by the Shilluk people, was located along the left bank of the White Nile river in what is now South Sudan and southern Sudan. Its capital and royal residence was in the town of Fashoda. According to Shilluk folk history and neighboring accounts, the kingdom was founded by Nyikang, who probably lived in the second half of the 15th century. As the only Nilotic people, the Shilluk managed to establish a centralized kingdom that reached its apogee in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, during the decline of the northern Funj Sultanate. In the 19th century, the Shilluk were affected by military assaults from the Ottoman Empire, resulting in the destruction of the kingdom in the early 1860s. The Shilluk king is currently not an independent political leader, but a traditional chieftain within the governments of South Sudan and Sudan. The current Shilluk king is His Majesty Reth Kwongo Dak Padiet who ascended to the throne in 1993.

The monarchy (the Reth) has been political and religious in nature. The monarch guaranteed social order; his health and the health of the nation were intertwined. Worship is performed in rituals inspired by the national myth of Nyikang, the first Reth. The Shilluk monarchy and the beliefs of its people was studied in 1911 by Charles Seligman and in 1916 by British Anthropology.

Nuer [Naath] history and Values.
*History of Nuer Nation (c. 5000 to 1000 BCE)*
These people are descendants of Geah and Gueh Gaw Ran Hou Kuoth. Any nation whose history is not written is at the peak of a downward spiral with regard to its destiny, dream and direction. There is Nuer historical outline below each with brief descriptions.

The Nuer people are a Nilotic ethnic group primarily inhabiting the Nile Valley. They are concentrated in South Sudan, with some also found in southwestern Ethiopia. They speak the Nuer language, which belongs to the Nilo-Saharan family. One of the largest ethnic groups in southern Sudan, the Nuer people are pastoralists who herd cattle for a living. Their cattle serve as companions and define their lifestyle.The Nuer call themselves "Nath".The Nuer people have historically been undercounted because of the semi-nomadic lifestyle. They also have a culture of counting only older members of the family. For example, the Nuer believe that counting the number of children one has could result in misfortune and prefer to report fewer children than they have. Their Ethiopian counterparts are the Horn peninsula's westernmost Horners

Culture
Cattle have historically been of the highest symbolic, religious and economic value to the Nuer. Sharon Hutchinson writes that "among Nuer people the difference between people and cattle was continually underplayed." Cattle are particularly important in their role as bride wealth, where they are given by a husband's lineage to his wife's lineage. This exchange of cattle ensures that the children will be considered to belong to the husband's lineage. The classical Nuer institution of ghost marriage, in which a man can "father" children after his death, is based on this definition of relations of kinship and descent by cattle exchange. In their turn, cattle given over to the wife's patrilineage enable the male children of that patrilineage to marry and thereby ensure the continuity of her patrilineage. An infertile woman can even take a wife of her own, whose children, biologically fathered by men from other unions, then become members of her patrilineage, and she is legally and culturally their father, allowing her to metaphorically participate in reproduction.

Cattle
Nuer life revolves around cattle,

The African History

Aaccording to them the real Egyptians are not Arabs! the real Egyptians are black (Nuba, Shilluk, Nuer and Dinka) the Arabs just invaded Egypt and forced us out and erased our history, culture and civilization.
