    Which statement about the Mali and Songhai empires of the 1300s CE is TRUE?

    A) They were both Muslim Empires.

    The Mali and Songhai Empire both had two common features: Islam and the greatness of their empires.

    Around the 1300s in the Mali Empire, Mansa Musa rose to power, and through him, Islam became one of the prominent religions. Mansa Musa was known for the construction of the learning center of Sankoré Madrasah which became a pivotal place in the Islamic world. Islam gained further strength under Musa's reign as he spread its growth.

    On the other hand, the Songhai Empire adopted Islam around the 1000s, but most of the inhabitants kept their traditional faith.
