The two other important West African empires were the Ghana Empire and the Songhai Empire. The Ghana Empire, thriving from around the 6th to 13th centuries, was known for its wealth in gold and its strategic trade routes across the Sahara. The Songhai Empire, which emerged in the 15th century, became one of the largest empires in African history, known for its cultural and intellectual centers, particularly in Timbuktu. Both empires played significant roles in the trans-Saharan trade and the spread of Islam in the region.
