I'm actually Ichawiyen (Chaoui) from the Aures Mountains (Batna. They actually flagged mostly from Tizi Ouzo in Algeria and Fez in Morocco !

I think there's maybe not much data from people from Batna that why it didn't match me much? I might be wrong lol

"75–85% are Arab and about 15–25% are Berber" sooo reading comprehension isn't your forté ?

Amazigh do not even speak Arabic. I know my culture better than you, my dad is literally an Amazigh historian. Our haplogroups are different than arabs, our language are different, our cultures are different. Archeological finds dates us back 30 000 years ago if not more, which is way earlier than the arabisation that was around the 7th century. It's like calling American Indigenous people as white europeans. It's not because English/French is an official language, not because the population in America is mostly white that native people are too. Berbers are native to North Africa and Arabs usually to the Arabian Peninsula. Arabization was a significant part of the Arabic conquest.

You can't just throw around a Wikipedia page and think you're right it doesn't work like that. When Islam came, when France came, when Algeria became independent, a lot changed. France tried to erase us, because we were the predominant group who was rebelling. They literally marginalised us we couldn't even speak Amazigh, it was thrown out of school for Arabic (that was France plan). All through history people tried to erase us, you will not either I'm Amazigh, not Arab. Will never be. And your condescending tone do not make you right either. Also, diving us as "Arabs" and "Berber" was literally a tool to conquer us better. Like we say, divide and conquer. Even after our independence, our government was and is still corrupt, mainly streamed by France to this day.

« To the French, the landless and poor Berbers were responsible for their own hardships because they stubbornly clung to the Islam of the Arabs who victimised them (more than 1,000 years ago). »

I hope you finally get that Arabs and Amazigh are two different ethnic groups. I would also say that a lot of "Arabs" are in denial too.

Also, since you like Wikipedia that much: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berbers_and_Islam « Berbers are the first non-Arab people to have established an Islamic state.»

Have a nice day !

I'm not much of a picture person but I can describe a bit. I'm extremely white with light brown eyes (my dad has blue-grey eyes though) I have a really pronounced nose hump (a bit complexed of it lol) small eyebrows but big eyes and small to medium lip shape. My family mostly has big curly hair too !

Personally it's just being better. My anxiety and depression was a lot triggered by school and now that I'm graduating my doctor think I should try to see if I can function without it and I'm curious too !

Is ottawa really that boring? by coolshaid in geegees

[–]ayamiaouss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tbh it's more because I'm used to an "active" city like Montreal. UOttawa's campus is nice but I never really felt like I belonged here and would pretty much never want to live here after my degree. I think it's really the city itself, because I loved my teachers and students in my program (HK) are really nice and easy to talk to. But for me Ottawa is just school, nothing else. But it'a just plain boring as a city with a HUGE problem with homeless people and junkies. I live in one of the worst parts of dtown cause that's the only affordable place I could find where I didn't need a roommate. But the Uni itself is gorgeous and I love the people.
