Trade impacted the development of the west African kingdoms:

  • Trade affected the advancement of West African countries in the region.
  • They had resources like salt and gold and West African kingdoms taxed all exchange convoys stretching their provinces.
  • Trade participated in the increase of states that used trade to transport pepper, slaves, salt and ivory with other countries.
  • They had their commerce with the European countries and Portuguese were one of the main suppliers and takers.
  • The supplies played role in the development and helped merchants and citizens
