Africans never had to deal with the harshness of northern winters, so they never had to develop a lot of survival mechanisms that helped us move up the "tech tree".

Architecture is an integral part of living in on a continent where you can die of exposure in minutes for half the year. Architecture is less vital in an area where the nights are balmy.

Same goes for a lot of other western advancements: Mastery of seasonal agriculture and food preservation is required for survival through the winter. It is less important in places where plants are fertile all year, and there is an abundance of animal protein.

Necessity is the mother of invention, and Western peoples faced the burden of necessity much more than Africans did.

n the mid-19th century, George Grey imported zebras from South Africa to New Zealand, where he was taking up a governorship, to pull his carriage. The Victorian-era zoologist Lord Walter Rothschild likewise trained zebras to pull vehicles, famously driving a zebra-drawn carriage to Buckingham Palace. And in the early 20th century, Rosendo Ribeiro, the first doctor in Nairobi, allegedly made house calls on zebraback.

But while one-off attempts to tame a single animal may have been successful, domesticating them—breeding captive herds specifically for human use—proved impossible. They were easily agitated, aggressive when cornered (biting and kicking so hard they could easily maim or kill a would-be rider), and bad tempered. And while they could carry an adult human, they were significantly smaller than European horses; the discomfort of having a passenger for any length of time was likely to activate their worse tendencies, even if they’d been successfully “broken.” Even Lord Rothschild, the most flamboyant proponent of zebra-transport, never attempted to ride them; he stopped at harnessing them to a carriage.
