Songhai Government Grade A-

 

Songhai Government Grade A-



The Songhai government is well developed and organized. The government has a royal court which appoints governors to watch over the many tributary states. These governors were stern but fair and gave the many individuals that they ruled over freedoms. Although the governors gave the individuals freedoms if they disobeyed the rules and laws then they were severely punished. Also the government had to be very well organized because the Songhai empire was the largest out of all the ancient African empires. Overall the government gets an A- because they ruled a very large area and were stern but also fair and lasted from 1340-1591.
