Aksum began a long slow decline after the 7th century due partly to Islamic groups contesting trade routes. Eventually Aksum was cut off from its principal markets in Alexandria, Byzantium and Southern Europe and its trade share was captured by Arab traders of the era. The Kingdom of Aksum also quarreled with Islamic groups over religion. Eventually the people of Aksum were forced south and their civilization declined.
what is the history of Aksum, Ethopia, Africa since the beginning of the Christians come to the land?
At the A.D 600s, Muslims fought with the rulers of Aksum for the control of the Red Sea trade routes.
When Muslim Arabs took control of the Red Sea and Indian Ocean trade, they limited Aksum trading.
One waterway that was not used for trade by Aksum was the Niger River. The Aksumite Empire was primarily located in present-day Ethiopia and Eritrea, with its trade routes focused on the Red Sea and Indian Ocean, facilitating commerce with the Mediterranean and beyond. While the Niger River served as an important trade route in West Africa, it was geographically distant from Aksum's core trading network.
The ruler of Aksum moved the capital from the city of Aksum to another location primarily to enhance security and control over trade routes. The new site was strategically positioned to better defend against external threats and to facilitate access to important maritime trade connections. This relocation allowed for improved governance and economic stability, as Aksum sought to maintain its influence in the region.
