Natural landforms.
The Sahara, Sahel, rivers (especially the Niger), and coastlines determined where routes could run, what goods were carried, and which cities became trading hubs. These features both limited and directed trade (for example, the desert constrained overland travel until camels were used, while the Niger River enabled inland exchange).
