What is History of the Sokoto Caliphate about?
The Sokoto Caliphate was founded in northern Nigeria in the early 1800s under the leadership of Usman dan Fodio. It established slave trade to grow its economy but the British Navy tried to intercept slave ships and freed enslaved people, relocating them to Sierra Leone. The Sokoto Caliphate influenced the political and religious climate of West Africa until 1903 when the British defeated the Sultan and dissolved the Caliphate, absorbing the area into British colonial rule.
