Spanish Queen Isabella I of Castile shows "Nordic" characteristics: blonde hair, blue eyes, and pale skin
The Visigoths also became the dominant power in the Iberian Peninsula, quickly crushing the Alans and forcing the Vandals into north Africa. By 500, the Visigothic Kingdom, centred at Toulouse, controlled Aquitania and Gallia Narbonensis and most of Hispania with the exception of the Suevic kingdom in the northwest and small areas controlled by the Basques and Cantabrians. However, in 507, the Franks under Clovis I defeated the Visigoths in the Vouillé and wrested control of Aquitaine. King Alaric II was killed in battle.
Galicia prides itself on its Celtic heritage. Maybe this explains the relative blondness of that nort-west corner of Spain

Ahahaha you just got through telling me that Europeans were not blondes, (silly me) and now you are saying my error was saying that the whole country was full of them. Well like I said, blondes in Tunisia are not as blonde as blondes in Sweden. Queen Isabella is described in more than one place as having reddish blonde hair.

Mmmmmm not sure what history book your reading BUT Africans have been selling each other out for gold since they were around. And selling there people out. genocide? Oppression? Maybe that's a to advanced word for you but Africa and Africans are a perfect example. Back to the point of RACISM. Your people are so racist for no reason. You think we all owe you something? Owe you what? I think we should white history month but oh no that would be morally wrong. There is such a double standard in this country right now it's a joke and it's starts with you. I bet, if we stopped giving free stuff out to everyone there would be hundreds of thousands more black then whites on the street starving and begging. True fact in Greensboro nc there are hundreds of black bums begging always asking for hand out from white college kids on campus....... No white bums. See the picture I'm painting.... If not let me spell it out. Most of you are lazy, begging bums that depends on white middle class America to pay our taxes so you can live for free while your in the ghetto not working smoking crack popping out more babies just cause you'll get more money back on your tax returns. And then you have an racist attitude towards us. You should be a little more thankful.
African people never starved or wanted for anything until the europeans came. That is an actual fact.
Panel finds Justice Department reluctant to take cases of white victims
In a 144-page report completed in November and released over the weekend, the commission said its lengthy investigation had uncovered “numerous specific examples of open hostility and opposition” within the department’s Civil Rights Division to pursuing cases in which whites were the victims.
The report, posted on the commission’s web site, said testimony obtained by the panel during its investigation included allegations that some Justice Department lawyers refused to work on cases involving white victims; that lawyers who worked on such cases were harassed and ostracized; and that some employees, including supervisory attorneys and political appointees, openly opposed race-neutral enforcement of voting rights laws.

One of the most famous slave traders on the East African coast was Tippu Tip, who was himself the grandson of an enslaved African
some African kings sold their captives locally and later to European slave traders for goods such as metal cookware, rum, livestock, and seed grain.
The kings of Dahomey sold their war captives into transatlantic slavery, who otherwise would have been killed in a ceremony known as the Annual Customs. As one of West Africa's principal slave states, Dahomey became extremely unpopular with neighbouring peoples.[56][57][58] Like the Bambara Empire to the east, the Khasso kingdoms depended heavily on the slave trade for their economy.
Before the arrival of the Portuguese, slavery had already existed in Kingdom of Kongo.
In the 19th century, this was particularly true of anti-Irish prejudice, which was partly anti-Catholic sentiment, partly anti-Irish as an ethnicity. This was especially true for Irish Catholics who immigrated to the U.S. in the mid-19th century; the large number of Irish (both Catholic and Protestant) who settled in America in the 18th century had largely (but not entirely) escaped such discimination and eventually blended into the American white population.
One series of unprovoked crimes that specifically targeted White Americans is the Zebra murders that occurred in San Francisco between 1973 and 1974. The Zebra murders were carried out by a group known as Death Angels (a radical splinter group of the Nation of Islam) that intended to kill whites to spread terror and earn favor and status within their sect
