They were so wealthy because of their trading routes
Ghana only traded within Africa and Songhai had Muslim influences. The main trade in Ghana was between salt and gold, but the trade in Songhai was more diverse. In Ghana they had to pay tax to the king, but in Songhai they did not. Ghana was ruled by a single king. Songhai had five provinces that were each ruled by a separate governor. I hope that helps :)
