There are more people in the East; and they live in higher density communities. Tolerance of diversity is a basic premise of Eastern philosophy. Western philosophy seeks to find a "correct" philosophy and then impose it on others.
This is a loaded question, and what do you mean by "entizies?", that's not a real word (at least i can't find it in the dictionary). But anyways, there aren't any "white" philosophers that marginalize African Philosophers. It just happens that different philosophers from different traditions don't interact with each other very much. Anglo-American Philosophy has more or less to do with rigorous use of logic and reasoning to be involved in philosophical problems inherited by the history of western philosophy. African Philosophy is a bit difficult to define like western philosophy, but African philosophy nowadays have to do with postcolonialism and the meaning of identity. As you see both traditions have different approaches of philosophy and different problems to solve: there is no one ganging up on anyone.
This civilization developed western philosophy, basis for democratic government, as well as great poetic epics.
