    Religious & Ethical Systems: Beginning about 640, Islam created two North African empires. Merchants and traders spread Islam into both West and East Africa, where it influenced rulers. Interaction with Environment: In parts of Africa, hunter- gatherers used up an area’s food supply and then moved on. In some Saharan villages, workers built houses of salt. The location of gold determined trade routes. Economics: Trade networks developed in Africa because different regions had items that other regions wanted. African city-states and empires that were able to control and tax such trade became wealthy and powerful.
