An effect of steamboat´s popularity was that it carried people and goods to faraway places where it was not possible to go easily before the invention of the steamboat.

The steamboats could travel at the speed of up to five miles per hour. Although there were some little differences, they all shared a basic design. They had a hull or body made of timber and a wooden paddlewheel.

It is also important to mention the dangers of river travel. The biggest danger that steamboats faced was boiler explosion. In relation to that, one of the worst disasters ever recorded was that of General Slocum, which exploded killing 958 people.

Explanation:

West Africa is the region of Africa that is south of the Sahara Desert and extends from the Atlantic Ocean in the West to the Benegal Trough in the East. West Africa is a diverse region that has a varied landscape of savanna, mountains, rain forest and desert. The region first entered the Iron Age in roughly 1200 BCE, probably learning the processes through its contact with Egypt at that time. West Africa actually maintained connections with the Mediterranean world, initially through trade with Carthage, then Rome, and later the Caliphate during this era.

This was the beginning of the Trans-Sahara Trade Network which would go on to become so vital to the region in later centuries. West African peoples traded cotton, ivory, metal goods and gold to the north in exchange for horses, textiles and other goods. These trade routes, as well as the appearance of iron tools that allowed for more productive farming, led to the development of the region's first City-States. City-States are independent cities that often control the agricultural land outside of their borders and govern themselves. These city-states, in turn, would help spur the development of the first states and empires in the area.
