Answer 2

The correct answer is Mali’s proximity to sub-Saharan Africa allowed for plenty of chances to invade its weaker southern neighbors.

The Mali Empire was an African state located in Northwest Africa, near the Niger River, and was dominated during the 13th and 14th centuries. It was an empire out of three consecutive rulers that dominated the region, and among them, the Mali Empire was the most territorially extended compared to the other two, Songhai and Ghana.
