In this game, you play as a Taghazan salt miner who sells salt to the kingdom of Ghana for gold. Ghana took place before the Mali empire took over in 1240. This specifically takes place in Ghana's peak in the 10th century. This was when the kingdom of Ghana was at it's most prominent and one thing that helped it get that good was the kola nut. The kola nut was a nut that had concerning amounts of caffeine in it, which would have caused people to get habituated to it and come back to buy more. It also had cultural significance and symbolized hospitality, respect and unity. Mali's economy was ruined by mansa musa because he gave so much gold to people. mansa musa was apparently the richest person in history. he was able to expand mali over a "sizable area of west africa". Mali took over ghana. mansa musa took control over the mali empire in 1312.
