The correct response is: its people were fierce warriors, clever traders, and skilled brassmakers.

Explanation: The Kingdom of Benin was a powerful empire that existed in what is now present-day Nigeria from the 13th century until the late 19th century. It was known for its highly developed artistic traditions, particularly its brass sculptures, and for its skilled warriors and traders who established trade networks with European merchants. While the kingdom had some contact with Europeans, it was not an inland kingdom in the Sahara and was not an Islamic empire.
