Answer:

The trans-Saharan trade route transformed West Africa by connecting it to the larger parts of the world. ... It has all the components of a good trade network: the formation of diasporic communities, new technology, the spread of religion (Islamic traditions) and even a super rich king by the name of Mansa Musa.Jun 19, 2020
