James IV of Scotland vs Oduduwa

James IV issued a papal bull to found the University of Aberdeen, Scotland's third university. The university was established to promote education and learning in the north of Scotland, reflecting James's interest in Renaissance humanism.

James IV supported the pretender Perkin Warbeck, who claimed to be Richard of Shrewsbury, by invading northern England. The invasion failed, and James later abandoned Warbeck, but the episode strained relations with England.

James IV married Margaret Tudor, daughter of Henry VII of England, under the Treaty of Perpetual Peace. The marriage united the Scottish and English royal houses and later gave James VI a claim to the English throne.

James IV commissioned the construction of the Great Michael, the largest warship in Europe at the time. The ship was built at Newhaven and cost a fortune, but it was sold to France after Flodden and never saw significant action.

James IV led a Scottish invasion of England but was defeated at the Battle of Flodden Field near Branxton, Northumberland. James IV was killed along with many Scottish nobles, making it one of Scotland's worst military defeats.

According to Yoruba oral tradition, Oduduwa descended from heaven at Ile-Ife and founded the Yoruba civilization. He is credited with establishing the first Yoruba kingdom and the sacred city of Ile-Ife, which became the spiritual and cultural heartland of the Yoruba people.

Oduduwa is said to have sent his sons and grandsons to found the various Yoruba kingdoms, including Oyo, Benin, and Ketu. This act established the royal lineages that ruled these states for centuries, creating a network of related kingdoms under the spiritual authority of the Ooni of Ife.
