The statement that best illustrates the impact trade had on Eastern and Southern Africa between the 800s and 1400s is:
People living along the coast of East Africa spoke Swahili.
This reflects the influence of trade on cultural exchange, as the Swahili language developed as a result of interactions between Arab traders and the Bantu-speaking people of East Africa.
Yes, that response is correct. The statement "People living along the coast of East Africa spoke Swahili" reflects the impact of trade during that time period. The Swahili language and culture evolved as a result of trade networks connecting East Africa with Arab, Persian, and other traders. This illustrates the significant cultural exchange and interactions that resulted from the trade activities along the East African coast from the 800s to the 1400s. The other statements do not clearly convey the impact of trade during that era.
