a) a great diversity of cultures
Europeans encountered a wide variety of peoples, languages, political systems and societies across Africa — from Sahara trade empires (Mali, Songhai) and West African kingdoms to East African Swahili city‑states and numerous smaller chiefdoms. There was no single African language, and Africa was rich in natural resources (not lacking them).
