THE SONGHAI EMPIRE: A POWERFUL PRE-COLONIAL WEST AFRICAN STATE

In this video, we explore the history of the Songhai Empire, one of the largest and most influential empires in West Africa from the 15th to the 16th century. We delve into its political system, trade, military prowess, and cultural influence. The Songhai Empire was strategically located, sharing trade routes with several major networks, which facilitated the exchange of goods and services across West Africa and beyond. The empire's control of salt mines and trade routes gave it a significant advantage in the area, and its sophisticated system of taxation and regulation of trade provided a significant source of revenue for the empire.
