Africa at the Time of the Atlantic
Slave Trade
The political, economic, and social structures of sub-Saharan Africa
were well developed when the Europeans opened up the West African
coast to international trade at the beginning of the fifteenth century.
Advanced civilizations existed throughout the continent, most regions
to the Cape had been settled, and the basic plants and animals had
been domesticated for several centuries. Throughout the continent,
advanced mining and industrial activity existed alongside agriculture
and herding. Gold had been exported to the European and Middle
Eastern markets for centuries, and iron was smelted from local ores
throughout the continent. A large part of this region had already been
in direct contact with North Africa and the Mediterranean world since
the classic civilizations of Egypt, Greece, and Rome. Even before 1400
its eastern coast had been in contact with India and the Pacific islands.
Finally, along the southern fringes of the Sahara from coast to coast it
was a basic part of the Islamic world order.
Sub-Saharan society and economy developed later than North
Africa. Complex societies, urban centers, and the spread of plants, ani-
mals, and technology to all regions from the savannas of the Sudan to
the Cape of Good Hope were not achieved until the post-Christian
era. It took from 200 b.c. to a.d. 500 for advanced agricultural, grazing,
and mining culture to reach all of central and southern Africa. By then
there were complex stratified societies based on settled village agricul-
ture everywhere in Africa. Moreover, not until the end of the great Bantu
migrations by around a.d. 700 did the linguistic map of Africa finally
become firmly established in its broadest aspects. Although increasingly
sophisticated markets introduced ever wider regions into contact with
each other after this date, migrations tended to be local, except for the

slave trade and some modest movement of pastoralists responding to
ecological change, and the map of population distributions remained
fairly stable.
Most of the eastern and western Sudan above the equator, the best
known regions to the Mediterranean world, were in contact with that
culture from the earliest times. Even prior to the final desiccation of
the Sahara around 2000 b.c., the Sudan was tied to North African
developments, and the closing of this frontier did not end contact
between these two worlds. Iron smelting, for exa.Hausa eng5

The Hausa people are one of the largest ethnic groups in West Africa, chiefly located in northern Nigeria and southeastern Niger. They predominantly live in small villages where they farm and raise livestock. The Hausa established several states between 500-700 CE in what is now northern and central Nigeria, adopting Islam in the 11th century. They were later invaded by the Fulani people in 1810, integrating the two groups. The Hausa language is part of the Afro-Asiatic family and they have been strongly influenced by the surrounding Sahelian and Chadic cultures.Chitrali culture

An important skill is paraphrasing, which involves restating ideas using different words while retaining the original meaning. It requires fully understanding the text and focusing on important words. When paraphrasing, the original should be set aside and the paraphrase written on note cards to check it accurately expresses the essential information in a new form, without changing the meaning or including unnecessary details. Minor rewording is insufficient for effective paraphrasing.Paraphrasing
