The Continent is a weekly digital platform that has been published since April 18, 2020. As of June 23, 2023, the 130th issue of the magazine has been released. It is observed that The Continent has an editorial stance rooted in Pan-Africanist ideology, and the articles are presented to the readers within this framework. The Continent focuses on African political, social, economic, and cultural issues, as well as the continent's relationships with other areas. The papers produced not only investigate contemporary events, but also their ties to the past. In this article, the historical writings in The Continent are examined, and the treatment of past events is investigated. Consequently, the aim is to explore how a Pan-Africanist publication in Africa approaches and presents various events and figures in its historical analysis.

The Continent, 18 Nisan 2020 tarihinden itibaren yayınlanan haftalık bir dijital platformdur. 23 Haziran 2023 itibariyle derginin 130. sayısı yayınlanmıştır. 30-40 sayfa aralarında yayınlanan The Continent, editöryal olarak Pan-Afrikanist bir düşünceye sahip olduğu görülmekte ve yazılar bu çerçevede okuyucuya sunulmaktadır. The Continent Afrika ve kıta dışında Afrika ile ilgili siyasi, sosyal, ekonomik ve kültürel konuları merkezine almaktadır. Platformda çıkan yazılarda bugünkü hadiseler incelenmekle birlikte bu konuların geçmişle olan bağlantısı da incelenmektedir. Bu makalede, The Continent’deki tarih ile ilgili yazılar incelenmiş ve geçmişteki olayların nasıl ele alındığı araştırılmıştır. Bu vesileyle Afrika’da bir Pan-Afrikanist yayın kuruluşunun tarih okumasında hangi olayları ya da kişileri nasıl ele aldığının araştırılması amaçlanmıştır.
