I believe the answer is D) Muslim. The Songhai's main religion is Islam. This happened when Muslims from the north came in contact with the Songhai people around 1010. The Songhai then became muslim.
Hope I helped! :)

The correct answer is D) Muslim.

The religious make-up of the thriving, bustling, urban cultural centers of the Songhai was mostly Muslims.

The Songhai Empire was located in West Africa, next to the Nigeria River. They were firm believers of Islam that followed strong leaders such as Muhammad Askia or Sonni Ali. People from this empire followed the strict rules of the Quran, which allow the empire to be fair and prosper, supporting trade practices that benefited them. They used to trade, salt, gold, and slaves to other territories.
