The Empire of Ghana, which flourished around AD 300, was located in West Africa, primarily in what is now southeastern Mauritania and western Mali. It was a powerful trading empire that controlled the trans-Saharan trade routes, particularly in gold and salt. The empire was known for its wealth and complex social structure, laying the foundation for future West African empires like Mali and Songhai.
