Early civilization in East Africa was characterized by the development of city-states and trade networks, particularly along the Swahili Coast. Influenced by Arab, Persian, and later European traders, communities such as Kilwa and Mogadishu thrived on commerce, exchanging goods like gold, ivory, and spices. The region also saw the establishment of complex societies, with significant advancements in agriculture, Metallurgy, and architecture. Additionally, the spread of Islam played a crucial role in shaping cultural and social dynamics in these early societies.
