Terrain difficulties were the primary reason that Islam could not spread further into Africa. In today's world, where most people drive on large paved roads and cover hundreds of kilometers with ease, it is difficult to remember that this was not the case historically. To pass through the deserts, grasslands, and rainforests of Africa was, historically, incredibly difficult and, often times, not worth it. As a result, Muslim merchants did not try to penetrate the jungle. Muslim missionaries have, now, begun to penetrate the other regions of Africa.
Bears are not native to Africa, and as such, they are not typically found in the wild on the continent. The last recorded sightings of bears in Africa would likely be in captivity, such as in zoos or wildlife reserves. Historically, the closest bear species, the Atlas bear, was native to North Africa but is now extinct, with the last confirmed sighting occurring in the early 20th century.
The region that spread from North Africa to West Africa is the Sahara Desert. This vast arid expanse serves as a natural barrier between the two regions and has historically influenced trade, culture, and migration patterns. The Sahara is characterized by its harsh climate, diverse ecosystems, and significant historical trade routes, such as the trans-Saharan trade routes that facilitated the exchange of goods and ideas between cultures.

Africa iwas historically either fought over between Asians (Arabic/Persian/Eurasian) and European peoples; or used for slavery.
This depends entirely on the slaveholding society. Historically, the largest numbers of slaves have been African (Black) slaves, especially in the Americas, but there have been numerous White Slaves, East Asian Slaves, Indian Slaves, and Native American Slaves in different places and at different times.
