Scenarios about 'Sahel region'
The Sahel is a semi-arid transitional zone in Africa stretching from Senegal eastward to Sudan, forming a boundary between the Sahara Desert to the north and the savanna lands to the south. This ecologically fragile region has historically been characterized by diverse ethnic groups, trans-Saharan trade routes, and powerful empires including Mali, Songhai, and Kanem-Bornu, whose legacies continue to influence the region's cultural landscape. In alternate history scenarios, the Sahel often serves as a crucial crossroads where different civilizations, religions, and economic systems interact.
