THIS IS OUR LAST EPISODE OF THIS SEASON 1 OF THE 7 Influential African Empires.
THE GREAT ZIMBABWE
One of the most impressive monuments in sub-Saharan Africa is the Great Zimbabwe, an imposing collection of stacked boulders, stone towers and defensive walls assembled from cut granite blocks. The rock citadel has long been the subject of myths and legends—it was once thought to be the residence of the Biblical Queen of Sheba—but historians now know it as the capital city of an indigenous empire that thrived in the region between the 13th and 15th centuries. This kingdom ruled over a large chunk of modern day Botswana, Zimbabwe and Mozambique. It was particularly rich in cattle and precious metals, and stood astride a trade route that connected the region’s gold fields with ports on the Indian Ocean coast. Though little is known about its history, the remains of artifacts such as Chinese pottery, Arabian glass and European textiles indicate that it was once a well-connected mercantile center. The fortress city at the Great Zimbabwe was mysteriously abandoned sometime in the 15th century after the kingdom went into decline, but in its heyday it was home to an estimated 20,000 people.

Introduction of BAMUPDATES Project to the World
BAMUPDATES is the platform for the Ghanaian Descent Artistes and Entertainers in the Diaspora. And for that matter, BAMUPDATES might probably be the first ever platform in Ghana and also in the Continent that is dedicated to our African Diaspora Entertainers across the Globe.
In this podcast, myself MrBreezy and KenCougar (Founders of BAMUPDATES) discussed the importance of our People in the Diaspora to Ghana and Africa and how Ghanaians can also be of great help to them.
This discussion actually helps to reveal the important role Bam-up-dates plays in being that Viable Bridge to bring all of us together and to help Ghanaians to know the Ghanaian Descents who are doing amazingly well in the Music and the Entertainment Industry in the Diaspora.
