The arquebus was an early type of firearm that played a significant role in West Africa during the late 15th to 17th centuries. Introduced by European traders and colonial powers, it facilitated the rise of gunpowder warfare in the region, altering traditional military practices. Local kingdoms and societies adopted the arquebus for both defense and expansion, significantly impacting the balance of power and facilitating the transatlantic slave trade. Its use marked a pivotal shift in warfare and influence in West African history.
The slave trade had massive influence over African Politics. West and East Africa were depopulated during the slave trade. This weakened native's states like the Oyo Empire and strengthened other empires like Ashanti.

West African societies developed through a combination of agriculture, trade, and the establishment of powerful empires. The introduction of crops such as millet and sorghum, along with the domestication of animals, supported stable agricultural communities. Trade routes facilitated exchanges of gold, salt, and other goods, leading to the rise of influential empires like Ghana, Mali, and Songhai. Cultural and religious influences, particularly from Islam, further enriched these societies, fostering advancements in education and governance.
West African kings became powerful by controlling trade routes and valuable resources, particularly gold and salt. By managing the flow of these commodities, they were able to accumulate wealth and influence, which also allowed them to strengthen their armies and establish centralized authority. Additionally, their control over trade facilitated diplomatic relations and cultural exchanges with neighboring regions and beyond. This economic power was crucial for the rise of prominent empires like Mali and Songhai.

African societies had very little issue with accommodating Islam, it simply became one of many faiths in Africa. Eventually, most Sahel African Civilizations, like Ghana, Mali, and the Songhai had Islam as the official religion. The presence of Islam led to a rise in literacy, structure, international trade, and unity. It also led to vast increases in enslavement, larger wars, and increasing fanaticism, especially under the Songhai.
