POLITICAL ORGANIZATION

The basic political unit among the Igbo is the village. Two types of political systems have been distinguished among the Igbo on both sides of the Niger River: the democratic village republic type, found among the Igbo living to the east of the Niger River, and the constitutional monarchy type, found among Igbo in Delta State and the riverine towns of Onitsha and Ossomali. Most of the villages or towns that have the latter type of political system have two ruling monarchs—one female and one male. The obi (male monarch) is theoretically the father of the whole community, and the omu (female monarch) is theoretically the mother of the whole community; the duties of the latter, however, center mainly around the female side of the community.

Women engage in village politics (i.e., manage their affairs, separately from the men). They do this by establishing their own political organizations, which come under an overall village or town Women's Council under the leadership of seasoned matriarchs. It was this organizational system that enabled Igbo women and Ibibio women to wage an anticolonial struggle against the British in 1929 known as the Women's War (Ogu Umunwayi).

Both types of political systems are characterized by the smallness in size of the political units, the wide dispersal of political authority between the sexes, kinship groups, lineages, age sets, title societies, diviners, and other professional groups. Colonialism has had a detrimental effect on the social, political, and economic status of traditional Igbo women, resulting in a gradual loss of autonomy and power.

Statues of Agrippa and Augustus side by side on the Cologne City Hall. It was Agrippa who first settled the Germanic tribe of the Ubii in the area and the settlement was known as Ara Ubiorum.

Agrippa's granddaughter Agrippina the Younger was born in the town, which became an important military base, in 15 AD when her father Germanicus was campaigning against the Germans. In 50 AD on Agrippina's urging Claudius promoted it to the Colony and it was renamed Colonia Claudia Ara Agrippinensium. Her statue is also featured on the city hall, a short space from these two.

La verdad les digo, que bronca que después de haber ganado tanto, que nuestra selección quede para el orto por esto. Discuto sobre esto y me salen con mil argumentos pelotudos "ah pero los franceses son racistas también" (cierto) "son unos imperialistas" (cierto) "es un cantito de cancha hay peores" (también cierto no significa que sea bueno) pero cuando vos estás representando a tu país, no podés estar cantando esas cosas. Una cosa es Brasil Decime Que Se Siente, otra cosa es un canto que es sabido que se hizo meme justamente por lo ofensivo que era, incluso para los estándares de los barrabravas argentinos y unos chetos inadaptados lo quisieron hacer internacional y metiendo racismo agregado.

Y encima se mete la peor de nuestra política con algo que se pudo haber resuelto con una disculpa y ahora es un bardo internacional. No voy a justificar lo que hicieron los marroquíes hoy pero no nos hagamos los giles, esto no pasó de la nada. Pura mierda la verdad.

March 4, 2024 - Long-tailed Tyrant (Colonia colonus) Found in parts of Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Suriname, and Venezuela, these tyrant flycatchers live in forests and woodlands, often around water. Hunting in short flights from exposed perches in pairs or family groups, they feed on insects, including stingless bees and beetles. They build their nests from leaf stems in cavities in tree trunks or snags. Females lay clutches of two or three eggs.
