The primitive people in Benin were Edo people. They were originally ruled by the king of the sky and called their land Igodomigodo. The first king of the sky, as an excellent ruler, had great influence and gained popularity. He died after a long reign and was succeeded by his eldest son, Al. /kloc-in the 20th century, a great court plot broke out. The prince, the only son of the last king, was sentenced to death because the first queen deliberately changed the information about Oracle Bone Inscriptions to the king.
In carrying out the court's orders, the court messenger showed kindness and released the prince in Ugorton, near Benin. His father, the king of the sky, died, and the king of the sky dynasty ended. People and makers of royal kings prefer that their king's son is the next ruler of nature.
The exiled Prince Yi Shi changed his name to Izoduwa, which means "I chose a part of prosperity" and found the way to Ile-Ife. It was during this chaotic period that the elders led by Oliha searched for the expelled Prince Ikala Khan. Now, Mrs. Ikala Khan will be called Odedua. Because of his age, Odudua couldn't return, so they let their son Leo rule them. Leo was resisted by the court official Orie, and now the elders live in the palace built for him by Usama. Shortly after his arrival, he married a beautiful lady Mary, the daughter of the ninth elder in Egor, and he had a son.
After living here for several years, he called a people's meeting and gave up his office, saying that this country is a disgusting place where only one child was born, trained and educated to rule the people in the land of art and mystery. He asked the son that Mary gave him to be king instead of him, and then returned to the palace. The son he left behind was deaf and dumb, and the elders begged Leo to give them a charming seed "omo ayo", which would make him speak. In his mother's hometown of Egor, little Leo plays with his peers.
When sowing seeds, it was announced that "I caught it with my hand" was Yoruba, but it was corroded by Edos into "‘Eweka'". This is why every Beninese must stay in Usama for seven days and announce his name with Igor. So Evika started the Oba dynasty. Leo N is also the founder of the Oba Empire, where he ruled the first Alafin in Oyo and continued to live, becoming the sixth Ononi in life, while his descendants ruled Ife Island, Oyo and Benin. By the15th century, Benin had developed into a prosperous city-state. The twelfth Oba will expand the territory of the city-state to the surrounding areas.
Until the15th century, during the reign of Obavare the Great, Ubidu, the administrative center of the kingdom, was first called benin city by the Portuguese and later adopted by the local people. Prior to this, due to the remarkable ethnic diversity of the kingdom headquarters during the success of the Oba Empire in the15th century, the early name of the Edo tribe was called Bini in the mixed spoken language of Itekiri. Their family lives together in the royal administrative center of the kingdom.
The Portuguese will write it as benin city. However, as the evidence implies, until the late 9th century, more distant Edo clans, such as Itsekiris, still called the city Bini.
Except for benin city, despite the golden age of the kingdom, his ruling system of Oba in rule the kingdom remained a loose foundation after Okisuo Dynasty, which was to exchange military and royal protection for the use of resources and pay taxes to the royal administrative center. Neither language nor culture has been realized, but it is still heterogeneous and localized according to various ethnic groups in the kingdom, although the local duke is often designated as a specific ethnic area by Oba.
