Long before borders, maps, and nations... there was movement.

One of the greatest migrations in African history began over 3,000 years ago — it’s called The Bantu Migration.

The Bantu were not one tribe, but a group of African peoples who spoke related Bantu languages. They started their journey from West-Central Africa, likely around modern-day Cameroon and Nigeria.

🔄 Why Did They Migrate?
The Bantu migration didn’t happen in one wave — it was a long process. They moved in small groups.
Why?

They needed more fertile land for farming.

Their population was growing.

They had iron tools and farming skills, and they wanted to expand.

They didn’t run from war — they spread knowledge.

🌍 Where Did They Go?
The Bantu slowly moved south and east, traveling through rainforests, rivers, and savannas.

Over hundreds of years, they reached Central Africa, the Great Lakes region, and all the way down to Southern Africa.

As they moved, they shared:

Language

Iron-working technology

Farming methods

Cultural values

In fact, more than 500 languages spoken in Africa today come from the Bantu language family.
