Scenarios about 'Mali'
Mali refers to both the modern West African nation and the historic medieval empires that flourished in the region between the 13th and 17th centuries. The Mali Empire, founded by Sundiata Keita, became one of Africa's largest and wealthiest kingdoms, controlling trans-Saharan trade routes and producing influential figures like Mansa Musa.
