Sundiata Keita (c. 1217 â?? c. 1255) was the founder of the Mali Empire. He is also the hero of the Mandinka people in the semi-historical Epic of Sundiata, known primarily through oral tradition.
Sundiata Keita's family was killed by the evil king Sumanguru. Sundiata was spared because he was ill and likely to die anyway. But he lived and overthrew the king. He then introduced cotton to the farmers, allowed people to worship as they please, and let slaves work to their freedom.
