In the 17th century, the Ashanti clans united under Chief Osei Tutu to form the powerful Ashanti Kingdom, with allegiance sworn to the sacred Golden Stool. As farmers and traders, the Ashanti economy centered around crops like cocoa and gold mining. They had a strong, organized army of 80,000-200,000 that resisted European colonization. The Golden Stool remains a symbol of Ashanti nationalism.

Textiles incorporated stamped designs and woven patterns representing social positions. Architecture featured courtyard buildings with painted mud reliefs and palm leaf roofs. Pottery was primarily done by women using local clays and simple tools. Jewelry symbolized wealth, rank, and protection through symbolic motifs.
Aksum
Aksum was an ancient kingdom in northeastern Africa that was one of the most important trading kingdoms in eastern Africa. It exported goods like ivory, salt, gold and animals. Aksum was also significant as the first major kingdom to convert to Christianity and for possibly being the final resting place for the Ark of the Covenant. The kingdom declined due to the rise of Islam and control of trade routes by Muslim sailors, as well as climate change.

The Axum Empire was located in northern Ethiopia between 100-700 AD and was centered around the city of Axum. It grew prosperous due to its strategic location along trade routes between Yemen and Nubia. The Aksumites built large stone monuments and converted to Christianity in the 4th century AD under King Ezana. Axum controlled trade in ivory, frankincense, and other goods and extended its influence over Nubia and Yemen at its height. It declined in the 8th century AD partly due to loss of trade to other powers.
