Ancient Ghana's society B+ (Sidney)

          In the Ghana empire, the society was strong because of the king's trading monopoly. In his empire, being Dinga Cisse, they were famous for trading slaves, salt, and gold. One arab writer, Al-Hamdan, said Ghana had the best gold mines in the world in their time. With all the trade, many religions came in. Although the king didn't accept the religions, he let his people pick the religions of their choice.
          It is a myth that every year, the people of Ghana would give a sacrifice of a virgin to Bida, the black snake. One year, the women who was suppost to be sacrificed was rescued by her fiance. Angry, Bida took his revenge on the land by bringing drought and make the gold mines dry. this slowly made the empire die, with the king's trading monopoly gone. If the empires society was a tad bit better, than it would have been able to find a solution that would move them through a couple more years of ghana reining. It could have been better if it had a uniform religion in the land. This could give the people uniform ideas to help them in the future.
