The Empire of Ghana and later the Mali Empire faced several factors leading to their decline. Primarily, internal strife and political fragmentation weakened central authority, making it difficult to maintain control over vast territories. Additionally, the rise of competing states and changes in trade routes diminished their economic power, as the trans-Saharan trade shifted to favor other regions. Environmental factors, such as drought, also contributed to agricultural decline, further destabilizing these empires.
