Description

In the early 12th century, Africa is a continent of dynamic and varied cultures, kingdoms, and landscapes. The northern regions are influenced by the declining power of the Fatimid Caliphate and the rise of the Almoravid and Almohad dynasties, which impact trade and politics in the Maghreb and across the Sahara. In West Africa, the Ghana Empire, though waning, is succeeded by the rising Mali Empire, known for its wealth and trade in gold and salt. The Sahel region remains a vital crossroads for trade routes connecting North Africa to the sub-Saharan interior. In the east, the Swahili city-states along the coast of East Africa thrive through trade with the Indian Ocean world. Southern Africa is less documented, but the Great Zimbabwe Civilization begins to emerge as a notable power in the region. The continent is characterized by diverse cultures, extensive trade networks, and a wide array of political entities, each contributing to the rich tapestry of African history.
