Vgh, imagine being a Black cavalryman in 1681 and crushing the skull of an ugly iberian hooknosed portuguese rapebaby mutt with your horse as he begs for his life.

The life of a warrior Black bvll must have been exhilarating. Fighting portuguese mutts who think pathetic guns or armor will save them, and smiting them with clubs, slaying them like they were mere animals lining up to the slaughter as they attempt to chicken out of the fight.

This happened though. Do you want me to post that account of Black Africans raiding the portuguese settlement in the 1690s , raping everyone and smashing the heads of ugly portuguese mutts into trees? Doing that was awesome btw, and it was repeated by Black African Angolans in 1960s-1975

So basically, 500 Portuguese landed in Africa, tamed a few thousands local nogs and attacked the nearest "powerful kangzdom"

As for the battle, it was actually a pyrric victory for the Portuguese
>Despite taking the field, which had never been an objective in the first place, the Portuguese losses were such that the invasion of Matamba's capital was called off. After encamping at Katole for nearly thirty days, the Portuguese and their African allies retired to Mbaka under the command of João António de Brito.[1]

Cavalry was pretty common in the Sahel and the horn

Why are blacks so prone to altering history?

That battle was a victory for the Portuguese and Matamba was eventually incorporated into the Portuguese Kongo in the following decades, and this came years after Portugal conquered most of the coast and was steadily moving inland. Their kings and queens were also already heavily christianized even before being properly settled by Portugal
