Astronomy:

A structure known as the African Stonehenge in present-day Kenya (constructed around 300 B.C.) was a remarkably accurate calendar. The Dogon people of Mali amassed a wealth of detailed astronomical observations. Many of their discoveries were so advanced that some modern scholars credit their discoveries instead to space aliens or unknown European travelers, even though the Dogon culture is steeped in ceremonial tradition centered on several space events. The Dogon knew of Saturn’s rings, Jupiter’s moons, the spiral structure of the Milky Way and the orbit of the Sirius star system. Hundreds of years ago, they plotted orbits in this system accurately through the year 1990 . They knew this system contained a primary star and a secondary star (now called Sirius B) of immense density and not visible to the naked eye.

Metallurgy and tools :

Many advances in metallurgy and tool making were made across the entirety of ancient Africa. These include steam engines, metal chisels and saws, copper and iron tools and weapons, nails, glue, carbon steel and bronze weapons and art

What might happen if a state is not recognized by other states?
patriot [66]
If a state is not recognized by other states then it is isolated culturally, economically, educationally, and militarily (to name a few). There would be no trade for products requiring the state to be self-sufficient. Food crops would need to be grown in great quantities to feed the entire population. Manufacturing would be required to clothe, house, service everyone. This magnitude of isolation would prove detrimental to the populace.
