Great Zimbabwe
The empire built by Mutota was the Great Zimbabwe Empire, specifically known for its advanced stone architecture and trade networks. Mutota, who was a leader of the Shona people in the 15th century, established the empire by expanding his territory and consolidating power in the region. Great Zimbabwe became a significant center for trade, connecting East Africa with the interior and fostering economic and cultural exchanges. The empire's legacy is evident in the impressive ruins of Great Zimbabwe, which remain a UNESCO World Heritage site today.
The Mutapa Empire, also known as the Mwenemutapa Empire, began in the 15th century as a result of the fragmentation of the Great Zimbabwe Kingdom. It was founded by Nyatsimba Mutota, who left Great Zimbabwe in search of salt and established a new kingdom in the Zambezi River Valley. The empire grew through trade, agriculture, and military conquest, extending its influence over a vast area in present-day Zimbabwe and Mozambique. Its wealth was largely derived from gold mining and trade with coastal city-states.
