Songhai Empire: The Rise and Fall of Africa’s Greatest Empire — How did a civilization that ruled over 1,000 miles of West Africa collapse in a single afternoon?
From the thunder of gunpowder at the Battle of Tondibi to the golden age of Timbuktu, this documentary takes you deep into the dramatic story of the Songhai Empire — Africa’s most powerful medieval empire.
You’ll witness the rise of Sonni Ali, the warrior king who built a military superpower along the Niger River… and the transformation under Askia Muhammad I, who turned Songhai into a golden Islamic caliphate filled with scholars, trade networks, and one of the world’s greatest centers of learning.
This is not myth. This is documented history.
Discover:
• How Songhai broke away from Mali
• The conquest of Timbuktu and Jenne
• The golden age of Islamic scholarship in West Africa
• The deadly Moroccan invasion armed with gunpowder
• And how internal power struggles weakened an empire from within
