Summarize medieval Africa's geography, societies, and cultures.
Sergio [31]

Medieval Africa was an evolving world. In early centuries it opened trading routes, experienced new religions, increased literacy among people, and experienced one of the continent's richest periods.

It is a mountain range in the northern most part Africa between the Mediterranean Sea and the Sahara Desert. It is the largest desert in all of Africa and is composed of dry sand, and has a lack of water. It is south of the Atlas Mountains and north of the Ahaggar Mountains.

Medieval African farming people lived in closely knit communities and helped each other with tasks. The pattern of family life varied depending on the culture of the group. In some small societies the basic family unit was nuclear family.

As the medieval era started around 500 CE, Rome's power in North Africa and Egypt started diminishing. The traders from the Middle East started bringing Islam to Africa. Africa's treasures of gold, salt, slaves, and ivory had also become known, making the continent a target for more trading and wealth.
