Ethiopia. Because king Lalibela built 11 churches and they were made out of volcanic rock underground. This was my blog question, sorry it was short.

I agree with you Sofia. I do agree that they made 11 churches and that is what part of what made them succesful. But do you think that that is the only reason that they were succesful? Do you think it has something to do with where they were located?

I agree with Madelyn. One of the reasons Ethiopia was so successful was because of the location. The churches also were a big help to their success.

I disagree, the churches were very unique about Ethiopia but I don't think it was the most successful. I think it was Benin because of the many advancements.

I think that the kingdom of Benin was the most successful by its way in music and arts by building statues and making musical instruments like the finger piano. It (probably) made the people joyful and happy. To me that is something that is important. More important than people (maybe) working to death (not literally) trying to build a building to show power when you can instead listen to music and enjoy yourselves. (you said "do you find to be most successful and why")

I think Kilwa was the most successful. I think this because They were so successful in their trade with India , China , and Southern Asia . The main reason why they fell was because of the black death.

Benin because they were there the longest living kingdom of Africa. They were only conquered by the British Empire if not they might still be here today. And they built walls to protect themselves and not to show power
