East African city-states, such as Kilwa, Mombasa, and Zanzibar, became wealthy through their strategic location along trade routes in the Indian ocean. They engaged in extensive trade with merchants from the Middle East, India, and beyond, exchanging goods like gold, ivory, and slaves for textiles, spices, and luxury items. The cities developed sophisticated economies and political structures, which facilitated trade and attracted more merchants. Additionally, the influence of Islam fostered connections and networks that further enhanced their commercial prosperity.
