at first Songhai started as a fishing community,It was goood because they were trading fish for goods they wanted and needed as well.

They were Mali.Mali wanted them to pay taxes,but never did.

The king Sunni Ali The Great was a talented leader and a good king to everybody in the kingdom.Perhaps he was so great hes kingdom grew bigger.

the kingdom i was given to do is called Ancient Mali.

Ancient Mali controlled some of the gold mines to the south and some of the salt mines in the north.In this kingdom i think there government is controlled by the king.

This man name Sundiata became a king after Ghana collapsed to restore trade with the neighbors.he recognized that trade was critical to Mali's survival and growth. These are some things i learned about the Mali kingdom.
