The empire was built on gold and the profit they made through trade. 
Great Zimbabwe had a sophisticated hierarchy. Evidence of Great Zimbabwe comes from the stone fort located in southern modern Zimbabwe. More evidence comes from pottery shards from many places around world that were all found in one area. The fort's many passages are believed to be made for the higher class people to avoid the lower class people.]]> 2016-11-07 17:38:58 UTC https://padlet.com/karnold4/cs77rp0pieq8/wish/135865261 https://padlet.com/karnold4/cs77rp0pieq8/wish/135865290 Jenne-Jeno

They also had many smaller cities, buildings made of mud bricks and or temples where they worshipped their own gods. There was also extremely large burial ground much like our cemeteries we have today. They had a form of government as well which at the time was a king. ]]> 2016-11-07 17:39:05 UTC https://padlet.com/karnold4/cs77rp0pieq8/wish/135865307 https://padlet.com/karnold4/cs77rp0pieq8/wish/135865414 Djenne has complex forms of Architecture as seen with the city mosque.
