Between the 9th and 11th centuries, the kingdom of Ghana was so rich that its dogs wore golden collars, and its horses, which were adorned with silken rope halters, slept on plush carpets. Based on animal luxuries alone, it is no wonder that foreigners touted Ghana's kings as the richest men in the world.

The Empire of Wagadu (Ouagadou), more commonly known as the Ghana Empire, was a powerful state in the Medieval Sahel of West Africa, and one of the earliest in written record. With origins in antiquity and a reputation for wealth and glory in contemporary sources, it has long been an icon of Black history, though today it tends to be overshadowed by the later Mali Empire.

The Mali Empire was one of the largest and most prosperous empires in Africa, reaching its peak under the rule of Mansa Musa in the 14th century. However, after Mansa Musa's death, the empire began to decline. This decline was due to a number of factors, including succession crises, civil war, and the rise of the Songhai Kingdom.

In this video, we will explore the factors that led to the fall of the Mali Empire. We will discuss the succession crises that followed Mansa Musa's death, the civil wars that broke out within the empire, and the rise of the Songhai Kingdom. We will also discuss the legacy of the Mali Empire and its impact on the world.

This video is a must-watch for anyone interested in African history. It provides a comprehensive overview of the factors that led to the fall of one of the greatest empires in African history.

The Asante empire is one of the most prosperous empires in Sub-Saharan history. Its history is one of war, peace, technology, and trade. Personally I loved researching this episode.Sources:McCaskie, T.

This video is part of Project South of The Sahara. It's a YouTube history collaboration where channels come together to celebrate the less told tales of African history, specifically those that take place south of the Sahara desert. So much of African historical focus is on North Africa, and while it's certainly important, the rest is a bit overshadowed. In this video we will focus on the Kingdom of Kongo and it's mark on African history.
