c. 1000-1600
When the Songhai Empire fell in the late 16th century, it marked the decline of one of West Africa's largest and most powerful empires. The collapse was largely due to internal strife, economic difficulties, and the invasion by Moroccan forces equipped with gunpowder. This led to a fragmentation of the empire into smaller states and a shift in trade routes, diminishing its influence and disrupting the regional economy. The fall of Songhai ultimately paved the way for the rise of other powers in the region, such as the Kingdom of Dahomey and the Ashanti Empire.
the rise of the qin dynasty was 259 BCE and the fall of the dynasty was 206 BCE
trade and conquests; also located on major trading routes and built its empire by conquering neighboring territory
It rose in 1464 C.E. no it rose around the early 1400s and fell in 1450. It fell because they didn't use the 3 field farming technique and the land became hard, dry and unable to farm on. This is completely wrong... The Songhai empire rose after it reconquered Mali around 1450 CE. They fell after an internal political collapse and they were attacked by Morocco around 1540 CE. They were unprepared and already weakened by the political collapse.
