The Amazon woman statue in Cotonou, Benin 🇧🇯 The Amazon warriors were an all female army from Dahomey Kingdom and was started by the first and only Woman King, Hangbe. It was forbidden for women to be rulers and so after the sudden death of Hanjbe’s twin brother, King Ajanga, she silently made herself King, and didn’t tell anyone of his death until a couple months later. She created an all female army for fear of a man trying to dethrone her and ended up creating a formidable and enviable army
