Ok so its time to discuss the birthplace and home of Black Panther. The nation of Wakanda is a fictional land located in northeast Africa, where exactly? that's up for debate(another time for that). Wakanda was founded around 10,000 years ago under the rule of Bashenga believed to be the first Black Panther and an ancestor to our very own T'challa. Wakanda today is a remarkable technologically advanced civilization due to its many scientist and vibranium .....yes vibranium for those who don't know a quick rundown, vibranium is an ore found in great abundance in Wakanda due to an meteorite made of vibrinum which crashed in Wakanda some time long ago. It has a lot of unique properties such as being able to absorb and store energy due to impact, Which is why it was used to construct the iconic object Captain Americas shield (also black panthers suit is made of vibranium). Vibranium is also one of the main reasons the nation of Wakanda was raided and attacked so many times throughout its history prompting constant protection from its protectors of each generation. Wakanda is also home to many tribes and factions besides the Black panther cult(touch on that later also) so it is not without inner conflict by any means. Wakanda's appearance changes throughout the years and I am very interested to see how it will be depicted in the upcoming film that's all for now stay tuned for future post for a more in depth look at Wakanda and what to expect from the film adaptation
