The Demise of an Emperor

During the 13th century, West Africa was under subjugation between the clans. Ruthless kings from Ghana and Songhai Empires ruled by invading the states and surrounding countries, one being Mali. The Mandinka or Mandingo Clan was conquered and ran out of Mali. Coming out of exile years later was a courageous and tenacious warrior that was determined to overthrow these notorious, cruel leaders. He built his own army and perfected them in the art of war. Sundiata Keita and his army overthrew these cruel, ruthless leaders of the Ghana and Songhai empires. He started the first Federation and began the rule of the Keita Empire. Kankan Keita became the tenth Emperor of Mali. He strengthens his army to conquer and rule twelve regions and twenty-four states in West Africa. He enhanced the kingdom, improved the Federation, and rebuilt the country. But where there is glory, doom is yet to follow! He conquered invasion after invasion, but there was one adversary, his avaricious brother, who was obsessed with the throne.
